I know I joked that yesterday was leg day, but I’m pretty sure it actually was. Waking up today was no joke. It hurt to even lay in bed. However, I’m determined and ready to go.

Here we are, Day 1 of the my AI Life Coach experiment. Per my exercise schedule, it was a full body workout focusing on strength. I had also planned some delicious meals and snacks throughout the day that I couldn’t wait to try.

The AI I’m using is known as a chatbot, basically an AI program that can process natural language to create humanlike dialogue. With it’s ability to remember information I provide it, I knew that it would be able to provide me a week-to-week training schedule. The only question was, how accurate and effective it would be.

It’s hard to believe how one little thing got me on this journey, but it’s the truth. A simple donut, or rather a donut recipe, sparked an idea that, I feel, will last for a lifetime. It’s these small incidents in life that have huge impacts and I’m happy to share my journey with the world and those interested.
