@marc Pro feature: AI summaries of "what did you get done this week"

plz @marc , I want a tab that just has brief summaries of what I got done each week going back to the beginning of my membership, with like a zig-zag <hr> type thing for periods where I got nothing done.

I genuinely like this idea

Marc, you can even use this as an opportunity for people to share around their 'achievements' of the week.

also maybe rank the main feed by who's actually getting stuff done 😶

I experimented with this a few months ago, but can't find any of the screenshots anymore 😅

Would you want a list of bullet points of what you completed that week or more of a regular paragraph?

Would you want it to be written from first perspective ("I worked on…") so you can share it with others? Or more of a summary to yourself by the AI? ("You worked on…")

@marc Since it's AI you could maybe let the user choose how they want it. Personally I think you should be doing a lot more to kick people in the ass to get shit done, the best coaching experience I've ever had was at a CrossFit box in Washington DC run by former Division-1 athletes who were all clearly on gear and all looked incredible, they really set the tone, the pace, the attitude to get everyone fired up and serious. I really think people would appreciate it, of course you have to be smart about it and not be a jerk or hurt people's feelings but if they can tell you're doing it to try to help them I think they'll appreciate it.

But to answer your question I would personally want it to score me, have it hook it up to productivity software like ActivTrak to get a sense of the amount of time I worked and GitHub to see how many lines of code I wrote. I want to know how I compare to the "pacersetters" who are actually successful, people like you and Pieter (and I think Ben is on his way). So maybe have it talking to me while impersonating a coach of my choice: Elon Musk, you, Pieter, etc.

@marc but yeah I think bullet points would be better than a paragraph

Would there be a meaningful difference between listing all your completed todos verbatim versus having AI rewrite them?

Reply

yes because you would ask the AI to filter out anything that--in its estimation--doesn't seem like it's on-topic / indie-hacking/shipping-related. And then also filter to the most-significant accomplishments.

To add to that, it might be interesting to get a weekly summary of what the people you follow did that week
