You’ve typed the same instructions into AI for the third week running, tweaked the wording slightly, and got a slightly different result again. It’s tiring, and it makes the output hard to trust. 

Meanwhile, the tools you may have built along the way like GPTs and Gems are starting to disappear, and a new term keeps turning up in every major AI platform: Skills 

In this How I AI episode, Neo and I get into what a skill is, why the platforms are backing it, and how to tell whether one of your own tasks is worth turning into one. 

What you’ll learn: 
Why skills are showing up as custom GPTs and gems fade out 
What separates a skill from the tools it is replacing 
Whether a skill you build in one tool will work in another 
How to spot a task that is a good fit for a skill 
Practical AI tools for productivity and focus 
Real-world AI workflows used by high performers 
How to use AI at work without burning out 
Smart shortcuts for managing time and mental load
