Looking to partner with someone who wants distribution for this kind of thing.

My newsletter, Idea Kitchen, already offers something like this for non-devs but I get asked for one for devs constantly.

If there’s someone you think I should partner with, lmk

The four workflows we're covering this month:

✅ Find the Perfect Dupe with ChatGPT Agents

✅ Prep for Interviews Out Loud using ChatGPT Advanced Voice Mode

✅ Catch Up After Vacation in One Chat with Gemini Connectors

➕ A sneak peek at our next recipe (hint: it’s all about AI browsers)

Quick Recipes for Using AI · Zoom · Luma Join us for "Quick Recipes for Using AI," a friendly and practical session hosted by Marissa Goldberg. In this engaging event, you'll learn simple yet powerful…

Ever see a new AI feature and wonder, “Okay, but how would I actually use that?”

Tomorrow I’m hosting a live walkthrough showing exactly that — 4 simple, practical workflows using ChatGPT and Gemini.

No slides. Just hands-on demos and live Q&A.

Join us free at 9am PT → luma.com/q285nmxq

All recipes published are thoroughly tested and I only share the ones I’ve personally found useful.

As always, they’re only as good as the prompt, resources provided, and use of common sense.

I haven’t had any hallucination experiences with the email summary, but I recommend testing it yourself.

Did you know you can have a phone call with ChatGPT?

Most people only know about dictation, but Advanced Voice Mode is something else entirely.

Tomorrow, I’m sharing what it is, how to use it, and all the hidden tips.

Subscribe so you don’t miss it → ideakitchen.substack.com

Reasons I don’t publish:

1. The use case is hype not helpful (by far the top reason)

2. It’s too niche

3. It’s too advanced.

4. It works, but only 50% of the time (these I save for future publishing when the tech catches up)

For every one AI recipe I publish for Idea Kitchen there are 10 more use cases I tested and didn’t publish.

Meetings should be reserved for when speed or relationship-building are the primary goal. Not information sharing.

The teams that get this right thrive in remote work and AI adoption.

The teams that get this wrong run in circles then wonder why they’re not getting anywhere.

See you in an hour!

I'll walk you through 4 easy recipes:

✅ Go from Idea to Prototype with Bolt/V0
✅ Log Team Decisions from Slack to Notion with One Emoji using Zapier
✅ Build a Personal Health Coach with ChatGPT

+ a surprise recipe

Join me tomorrow for Cooking with AI (Live!)! 🍳

Real use cases for the latest AI features – no jargon, no fluff.

Bonus: anyone can attend live for free!

It’s one of those weeks where it’s hard to choose just one new AI feature to do an Idea Kitchen recipe on.

Currently testing five different use cases.

Let’s see which one wins for the Tuesday publish 👀

🍳 AI Recipe: Log Team Decisions from Slack to Notion with One Emoji Automatically turn long Slack threads into clean decision logs in Notion using Zapier Agents

I wrote up the steps if you want to try it yourself:

ideakitchen.substack.com/p/ai-recipe-...

Tinkered with Zapier’s new AI Agents feature last week and built a decision logging bot.

You just react to any Slack thread with the 🏁 emoji. The Agent grabs the messages, summarizes the decision/context, and files a clean entry in your Notion Decision Log.

Saves a bunch of back and forth later.

• No ads, all word-of-mouth (with help from shoutouts from @neuranne.bsky.social and @lennysan.bsky.social)

Thank you all!! Really cool to see something I started on a whim (because it was something I wanted but couldn't find), grow so fast 😊

Here are the stats behind the milestone:

• Started in March
• 106 AI use cases tested
• Leading to 18 articles (16 AI recipes, 2 ‘AI at Work’ profiles)
• And 4 ‘Cooking with AI (Live!)’ events to demo the recipes
• 50% open rate (unheard of for an AI newsletter)

🥳
