Let ChatGPT and Claude see your calendar and email

If you're using AI to help you plan your days and weeks, I strongly recommend giving it access to your calendar and perhaps your email (Claude; ChatGPT).
With that, your conversations can include questions like:
- What's coming up in the next few days? What do I need to prepare for?
- Which of my unread emails are urgent and important?
Of course:
- You should make a project for this kind of task, and include project instructions to proactively surface these kinds of things, or perhaps to give guidelines on what counts as urgent and important.
- More context on who you are, your current priorities and projects, etc., will improve performance a lot. See telling the AI who I am and collecting context in Google Docs.
I'll update this note with a more detailed guide before I feature it in the newsletter.
