How AI Turned Me into “Super Dad” (Without Even Trying)

Hey Papa, This week's AI tricks include a work presentation hack that saved me 2 hours, and a way to auto-summarize those endless school emails. Let's dive in. |

THE PROBLEM:
Those endless Zoom meetings that should have been emails are eating your workday and killing your focus.
THE AI FIX:
QUICK HOW-TO:
- Connect Otter to your calendar (2 clicks)
- Let it join your meetings automatically
- Get a searchable transcript and AI summary after
- Share the highlights with anyone who missed it
TIME SAVED: 30+ minutes per meeting not taking notes
PRO TIP: Ask Otter "What action items were assigned to me?" after the meeting for instant to-dos. |

THE KID CHALLENGE:
Your kid needs help with a science project but you're no expert on volcanoes (or whatever they're studying this week).
YOUR AI MAGIC TRICK:
ChatGPT's "Explain Like I'm 10" mode
HOW TO AMAZE THEM:
- Open ChatGPT and type: "Explain [topic] like I'm 10 years old"
- Add "Include 3 fascinating facts and a simple experiment we can do at home"
- Let your kid read it or explain it in your own words
- Look like the smartest dad ever when you do the experiment together
DAD CRED EARNED: Level 99 Science Wizard
"My daughter's teacher asked where we found such a cool volcano experiment. I just winked and said 'dad research.'" |

THE BORING TASK:
Keeping track of permission slips, supply requests, and important dates from the flood of school emails.
THE AI ALTERNATIVE:
MAKE IT HAPPEN:
- Set up a dedicated folder in your email client that auto-forwards to Metal
- Create a simple rule to send all school emails to this folder
- Metal will extract dates, action items, and deadlines automatically
- Never miss a permission slip or supply request again
HASSLE FACTOR REDUCED: From "drowning in emails" to "5-minute morning check"
PRO TIP: Set up a dedicated folder in your email client that auto-forwards to Metal for hands-off processing. |
