This talk was given at Future Tech 2026.

What happens when you let AI write your code, your posts, and your plans? Only one way to find out. In this talk, I share what happened when I let AI take over my workflow: writing full coding projects, managing my LinkedIn presence, scheduling my time, creating videos, and even teaching me new frameworks. From hallucinated pull requests to surprisingly useful insights, each experiment revealed how much (and how little) we can delegate to machines. I will tell you my experiences and if I could have predicted them beforehand. You’ll leave with real examples, honest takeaways, and a new sense of how you can let AI help shape your life, without losing the human logic behind it.
