## Summary

A writer who calls herself “The Woman Who Makes AI Do It” shares three daily chores she hands off to Anthropic’s Claude. First, she dumps her unsorted thoughts into a prompt that asks Claude to categorize items by near deadlines, quick‑finish tasks, and items that can wait, then returns an ordered list. Second, she uses Claude to generate three short, polite LINE replies for declining invitations, letting her pick the best tone before adding a personal touch. Third, she asks Claude to turn bullet‑point notes into brief report emails, suggest Excel formulas in plain Japanese, and explain the formulas simply. The guide includes prompt templates, tips on framing requests, and a call for readers to submit their own “hassle” tasks via a Google Form, with the author promising to showcase the AI‑generated results.

The piece notes that Claude is an Anthropic product and that the author’s experiences are personal, so results may vary. She warns users to verify any financial, health, or legal information and to avoid feeding personally identifying data into the model.

## Key points

- She prompts Claude to sort her morning to‑do list into urgent, quick, and later items, then orders them for execution.
- She asks Claude for three short LINE‑style reply drafts to decline invitations while preserving relationships.
- She uses Claude to draft work emails, generate Excel formulas, and write brief reports from bullet points.

## Why it matters
