In Episode 264 of iCantCU, I share two stories about how AI has made my life easier. The first story revolves around recording our Keystone Chapter meeting. I used Descript to transcribe the recording and then ChatGPT to draft the minutes. This process saved me significant time despite needing a few corrections.
The second story is about ordering my medication, Taltz, from the specialty pharmacy’s Express website. The site wasn’t accessible with VoiceOver, so I used a series of screenshots and the Be My Eyes AI feature to navigate it. Although it took longer than it should have, I successfully verified my address and selected the correct delivery date, feeling accomplished for handling it independently.
