People need time to learn.
Teaching someone to use AI takes time. They need room to try it on their own work and get comfortable with it. Without that, a task can take just as long as before, even with AI.

Efficiency.
I’m Leo Helzberg. I’ve used AI in nonprofit administration, marketing, and client writing. I’m interested in how people move from trying a chatbot to using AI in their daily work.

Having the tool
is only the beginning.
Research, email, contracts, and admin are different jobs. Putting them all in one chat leaves people copying, correcting, and pasting the answer back into their work.
Give each tool a specific job.
A tool for matching mentors needs different information from one helping with client writing. Giving each tool the right instructions, context, and task is the “programming” I specialize in. I’ve done this across many platforms, for personal tasks and business work.
Connect it to the work.
I call this integrated artificial intelligence: AI working with the documents and tools a task already depends on. People still check the result and decide what gets sent. Getting comfortable with that takes time, and I’m happy to work through it with them.
I’m interested in helping people do more with these tools, not replacing them. Less time on repetitive work means more time for the things they want to do.

03 About me
Economics at CU Boulder.
Curiosity everywhere else.
I’m obsessed with AI integration. I keep trying these tools on different tasks to find out where they help and where they get in the way.
I started using ChatGPT the week it opened. Since then, I’ve tried AI across platforms, in my personal life and at work. Here’s how I got into it and what keeps me coming back. More about me ↗

Have questions? Let’s get coffee or talk over Zoom. I’m a student who wants to learn and trade ideas. I know these tools; you know things I don’t. Let’s compare notes.
