So, since we all have Fable for the next

few days, and a lot of people are

probably wondering how to use it, here's

an extremely simple system that anybody

in any organization can apply that will

significantly improve their productivity

using a computer. To make a long story

short, it's a system where you work,

Fable or another AI watches your screen

and captures a screenshot every 5

seconds.

You log that to a daily folder database,

pass this to a really cheap model to

summarize, and then count any repeat

behaviors that are low value. You make a

ledger of notes and observations, and

then you just ask Fable repeatedly, once

a day or once a week, whatever cadence

you want to spend your API tokens on,

"How can I economize my workflow?" It

sounds really simple, and it took me

less than 5 minutes to implement this,

and it works really well. I have gotten

probably at least half an hour back in

my day in just the last few days alone.

I realistically think I'm probably going

to get closer to 2 to 3 hours of my day

back. And you got to keep in mind that I

got to consider myself a pretty

optimized knowledge worker. I've been

working with computers for basically my

whole life. And here's an example of a

quick little brief, and these are three

ideas that this recorded in a less than

an hour of actual screen time.

A morning digest instead of a polling

loop. It found that I was accessing web

pages in a relatively cyclical manner,

checking for various updates, and it

suggested, "Why don't I create you a

high-quality morning digest instead that

includes all the information that you'd

get, but now you batch it in one instead

of eight times?" The next is a hotkey

idea capture. Right now, I have sort of

a loop where I'll design content ideas

throughout the day. It took a system

that was previously taking me 5 to 10

minutes additional per day, and it

turned that into a Raycast script

command with a linear API passthrough.

So, basically, I just press one hotkey,

dictate a line, and then immediately get

back to work. It gave me ideas

surrounding a cross-team view in my

project manager, basically just telling

me, "Hey, you should combine all these

into a much simpler workflow." And the

reason why I wanted to make this video

is because I legitimately think there's

a massive amount of GDP or gross

domestic product buried in minor

inefficiencies like this. Again, the

fact that you have to mouse your thing

to the top left-hand corner of the

screen, click two or three times,

consume 15 seconds for no discernible

reason at all when a hot key exists.

These small inefficiencies compound over

time across hundreds of thousands and

millions of people in organizations to

legitimately reduce the gross domestic

product of your country. If we can get

as many people on work optimizations as

humanly possible, we could basically

shave off all of the current excess

usage or excess wastage of these actions

and funnel all our time and energy

towards things that actually move the

needle for businesses, for people, and

for government. I show these examples to

you cuz I want you to see realistic

gains that you will get in the first few

hours of using it, but I've also gotten

gains that directly translated to

financial return. I mean, I was

previously using a voice transcript

software called Aqua that was costing me

a fair amount every single month. It was

also taking around 250 milliseconds

every single time that I used it in

order to populate text. So, not only did

it save me $15 a month, this solution,

which was previously taking me about a

quarter of a second every time I voice

transcribed, which it picked up that I

voice transcribed hundreds if not

thousands of times per day, took me down

to 50 milliseconds, saving me something

like 200 milliseconds times 500, winning

me back a few minutes every day plus 15

bucks a month. And I know all of this

stuff sounds stupid, but imagine a

strategy like this applied to new people

in an organization. They come on board,

they don't know any of the SOPs, and

then immediately, you know, after a day

or so of doing something, Fable analyzes

the way that they do their workflow and

recommends them a Chrome extension,

which saves them a 5 minutes a day. Uh

that is a small saving in isolation

becomes a massive saving in aggregate.

And I know this because that's literally

what happened here. I was doing the same

basic procedural workflow every single

day where I was opening up a certain

number of pages constantly. Fable just

said, "Why don't you just open up all of

those pages simultaneously with a Chrome

extension?" I've just written one for

you, here you go. None of these things

seem really big, but they stack up, and

now I'm saving a fair amount of time

every day. So, I personally think this

is probably going to be the future of

all sort of work optimization, at least

digitally, and I think you can actually

apply this more broadly to your life.

Like I'm actually considering, I know

this sounds wild again, installing a

camera in the top right-hand corner of

my room and then just having it take

screenshots every 5 or 10 seconds. Run

that for a three to maybe seven day

series and then feed that into Fable

alongside the sort of annotation

workflow. Can you imagine just how many

minor behaviors I'm probably doing?

Hell, it could be me leaning over to

scratch my back or something like that.

Fable would pick up on that and be like,

"Hey, is there something going on over

there? What's going on? How can I help

you?" Maybe it's the way that I'm

leaning in my chair leading to back

pain. Maybe I'm constantly squinting

because the light is in my face or

maybe, you know, my monitor is not

necessarily at eye level. I'm kind of

off to one side. All of these things

seem really small in isolation. Again,

they become really big in aggregate. So,

the actual system is going to consume

something like 8,640 lines of metadata.

It's text, so it's basically free.

You'll sample around 20 frames, vision

only where text can't actually tell

things. Again, you'll modify an

observations ledger, which is just a big

list of observations. And then, if it's

seen it more than three or four times,

it'll confirm the pattern of poor

behavior or pattern of inefficiency and

then suggest an upgrade. So, you know,

"Hey, use the hot key. You mouse through

the menu four times today. Hey, this $30

a month voice tool, here's a free local

one. Hey, this five to minute this five

minute task repeats three to four times

a day. Do you want a Chrome extension

that does it for you?" The really cool

thing about this workflow as well is I

know everybody here has a certain amount

of Fable session limit available. You

can run this sort of analysis in the

background for yourself really easily.

Like for instance, once you populate

this folder of your screenshots, which

is occurring constantly in the

background every few seconds, like it's

taking screenshots of me and this right

now,

you could just run a loop once every 24

hours where Fable like wakes up on your

computer, quickly analyzes everything

and then lets you know, "Hey, you know,

I think you should do this. I think you

should do this. I think you should do

this." You could also run this before

you go to bed to utilize your session

limit window, which as we know is

basically a scarcer resource than gold

at this point.

Lots of ideas that I just want to throw

at you, but if you guys want to get this

script and everything else, I've

actually just included all this down

below. I include a script that you can

feed into Fable to have it build it for

you. I'm also going to include the um

ongoing screen watcher script that

basically just runs every 5 seconds in

the background. That that'll obviously

require some configuration if you're on

a Mac or if you're on a Windows cuz of

different accessibility permissions. I'm

also going to include uh just these

diagrams and these files below so that

you guys have everything you need and

more or less whatever else I can just to

give you guys that value. So, not a

super crazy idea, I would hope. I want

you guys to play around with this idea

and let me know your thoughts down below

in the comments. Thank you very much for

watching. Have a lovely rest of the day

and I'll catch all y'all in the next

video. Cheers.
