Ep89: How I Decide Which AI Tools Are Worth Your Time (And Which Aren’t)

In this episode of The EA Campus Podcast, we’re talking about how to decide which AI tools are actually worth your time as an Executive Assistant, and which ones you can safely ignore.
If you’ve felt pressure to keep up with every new AI release, or you’ve tested tools that looked promising but never quite fit your day-to-day work, this episode is for you.
I’m sharing how I make decisions about AI from an EA perspective. Starting with the work we’re responsible for, not the features being promoted. We’ll talk about inboxes, calendars, executive prep, documents, events, and decision support. The real work EAs are doing every day.
This isn’t a tool roundup or a comparison episode. It’s a practical conversation about judgement, focus, and choosing tools that reduce mental load rather than add to it.
If you want a calmer, more realistic way to approach AI in your role, this episode will help you think it through.
