About me

I’m Marlon. Founder, tech leader, husband and dad. I test AI in the middle of a busy life and share what helps, what doesn’t, and what’s worth your time.

Between work, family and the everyday things that need doing, there’s always something competing for attention. AI seems to promise help with all of it. I want to find out where that promise holds up.

So I’m using my own life as the experiment.

Each experiment starts with a question: Can AI help me…? Get some time back. Stick to a workout routine. Keep up with messages. Plan a family holiday.

I’ll share what I try, what it takes to get going, where it gets frustrating and whether I keep using it. The result gets one of three verdicts: Must Have, Nice to Have or Hard Pass.

You don’t need to be technical to follow along. The point is to make it easier to decide whether something could help in your life, too.

Got something you wish were easier, at work or outside it? Send me your own “Can AI help me…?” question. I’ll choose reader suggestions to explore in future experiments.
