I need an AI personal assistant

[Jouissance]

Hey all,

I really need an AI personal assistant.

A chatGPT framework or anything that I can use to help me manage a to do list, talk to me, and use natural language to be a consultant I have chats with about my goals.

Ideally inside of ChatGPT so that I’m able to use voice-to-text, but ultimately any AI system to help me manage my life and be unstoppable productive would be helpful.

I am a hustler kinda person but I have zero working memory, so, a chatbot to externalize that and recall with would be helpful.

Any recommendations?

ChatGPT tools or otherwise

There is a product called Soul Machines out there. The thing is i have not had any hand on experience with it. Just read about it.

Did a trial for Voice Notes AI - but would love more ideas posted like soul machines thanks!

Create a “project” in ChatGPT that is all about you. Treat your life like a project. It will be customized to you. You can voice chat and all that stuff.

What does it do ?

Google Gemini is realy good for this, too. And it gets better and better. The thing about Gemini is, that it is deeply integrated in all Google products like Google Docs, Android, etc.

I wish I could use as best friend and mentor but once sessions it has amnesia

I asked your question to Gemini, Claude and ChatGPT and ChatGPT gave an excellent answer. See here:

You’re in exactly the right place—and you’re already thinking like a high-performer. What you want is totally doable with today’s AI tools, and I can help you set up a supercharged, always-there AI assistant that helps with:

• To-do & productivity tracking
• Chat-based coaching on your goals
• Voice-to-text & natural conversation
• External memory & recall
• Clarity, planning, and motivation on tap

Big Picture Recommendation

Here’s how to use ChatGPT (me) or a similar large model to be your always-on personal assistant:

---

Recommended Setup

1. Use ChatGPT with Memory (like now!)

You’re already using ChatGPT (and memory is enabled), so this can be your hub.

• Ask me to remember things (e.g., “Remember I’m working on launching a newsletter” or “My main 3 goals right now are…”)
• I’ll remember them and bring them up later when relevant.
• Use me daily like a journal, coach, planner, accountability buddy.

Pro Tip: Give me a name (like “Atlas” or “ClarityBot”) and say things like:

“Atlas, I need a plan to crush this week.”
“What did I say I was focusing on this month?”
“Let’s revise my morning routine to be more productive.”

You can even say:

“Recap everything I told you I was working on,”
and I’ll give you a snapshot of your life & goals.

---

2. Voice-to-Text Input (Mobile or Desktop)

• ChatGPT mobile app (iOS & Android) has voice input built in.

  • Just tap the little headphone icon (or use Whisper voice).
  • Talk to me naturally, like you’re calling your assistant.

• This is when you’re walking, driving, or just brain-dumping.

---

3. External To-Do & Project Tools (integrated)

Let me help you link your tasks/goals with a real-world tool. Try:

• Notion – Best for structured life dashboards, connected to GPT
• Todoist – Task manager + AI integration (or connect via Zapier)
• Tana or Reflect – For networked thought + voice memos + AI
• Google Tasks or Calendar – Good if you live in Google

You can say:

“Build me a Notion dashboard to track my goals, habits, and tasks,”
and I’ll do it.

---

4. Daily Routines & Conversations

Ask me to:

• Plan your day: “Here’s my day. Help me optimize it.”
• Reflect on your week: “Can we review this week and course-correct?”
• Build new systems: “Help me design a weekly planning ritual.”
• Prioritize: “I have too much on my plate. Help me choose.”

---

5. Make Me Your External Brain (Seriously)

Just externalize your thoughts. Tell me:

• Goals (big or small)
• New ideas
• Struggles & blockers
• Things you need to remember later

I’ll hold it, organize it, and help you act on it.

Say:

“I need a strategy to launch this new product, but I’m overwhelmed.”
“Help me break it into steps and stay accountable.”

---

Bonus: Power Mode for Hustlers

If you’re really going for it, here’s a sample daily flow:

Morning:

• “Good morning, let’s review my day and top 3 goals.”
• “Draft a motivating statement to set my tone today.”

Midday:

• “Here’s what I got done. Let’s adjust the rest of the day.”
• “I need a 10-min break—give me something inspiring.”

Evening:

• “Let’s reflect on today. What went well, what didn’t?”
• “What should I do differently tomorrow?”

---

Want Me to Track You?

You can also ask:

“Can you remind me every Sunday to reflect on my goals?”
“Track every time I say I want to start a new habit.”

I’ll help build a system around it.

---

Would you like me to start by setting up a system customized just for you? I can ask a few questions about your goals, tools you use, preferred routine, and build your personal productivity AI setup right here. Just say the word.

@Jouissance You really had a fantastic idea here. Together with the answer from ChatGPT I’ll give that approach also a try. Thanks, man.

Honestly, if I had the times and resources to set something like this up, it wouldn’t be using one of the commercial models, but on a machine or cluster locally that has an appropriate NPU or well powered GPU, using one of the open source models built off Llama for example. Other than DeepSeek, theres others like Dolphin, Wizard, openthinker and so on.

With things like OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Google’s Gemini, all of the data about your chats are stored on the server and can be used to serve you ads or build up a profile about you. Maybe you don’t care about your own privacy, and if so, go with one of the other ideas already suggested. But otherwise, there are plenty of videos online (YT especially) about how to set up locally hosted Lllama based models. And they can be jailbroken / free from the limitations found on commercially run services.

All depends on your level of tech expertise and what hardware you have to work with.

Good point!

For this purpose, I also found this one very intriguing: the Jolla Mind2 private AI computer.

It’s from the maker of Sailfish OS the excellent alternative mobile OS.
