AI Tools I Actually Use
Typeless Keyboard - it’s so much better to use voice to interact with AI rather than the keyboard. Wisper Flow is very popular, but I prefer Typeless. The main game changer on the phone is that it has a quick edit button to allow you to edit your inputs in a more intuitive way. Very often we type something and then we want to change it. The Quick Edit button allows you to do exactly that and to transform whatever your original text was on the fly. This feature alone sets it apart from all other voice-to-text apps. On the computer, aside from the quick key to input, it also has quick access to AI. I use the Function + Spacebar command quite a lot.
Obsidian - About four years ago, I switched to Obsidian after two years as a paid Notion user. It was the best decision I ever made; I realized that many important notes I wanted to export from Notion required extensive rework due to its proprietary markdown formats. Today, I use Obsidian daily to manage my tasks, events, projects, and knowledge base. The absolute best part of using Obsidian is that I can link it to a local LLM, allowing for completely private AI chats without worrying about my personal information being exposed to corporations. So although Obsidian itself is not an AI tool, it is an indispensable part of my AI toolbox.
…more to come.
