"Saul" Runs the Shop: Voice Orders, Pickle Lessons, and a Fleet of Assistants

If something doesn't work at first, go back and fine tune it and tweak it. Never ditch it. Okay, so for like the last year, I've really been trying to lock in using AI for the benefit of my life and businesses and like everything we have going on. I feel like AI could do it and a virtual assistant is kind of the way to go. Always use Chad GPT and I've ditched Chad GPT recently because Muse with Meta just came out and let me tell you right now, it has 100% changed my life. Muse is meta's AI agent that is laid out very similar to chat GPT except you can have multiple tasks going at once so for me personally I have a DJ assistant a collective CEO I have a social marketing assistant I have a health assistant where I count calories and put meal plan and all that kind of stuff in there I've got like a ton of different assistants that are these chats and I can Jump between each one and say, hey, I need to do inventory. Can you do this? It starts working on it and then, I go to the next one. Hey, I need a meal for tonight or what's a low calorie this that and then go to the next one and they're all working at the same time across all my devices. So, no matter where I'm at, it will give me updates on what it is. I'm really, really locking it in but here's the principle I'm learning while using this. There's no just you start using it and it's a perfect thing. Just like every other system in life, it has to be fine tuned and tweaked. So, I'm using it. A big thing that's helping a lot is for inventory where yesterday, I'm opening up the shop and while I'm opening, I have the app open and I'm talking to Muse. I called mine Saul, S A W L. I'll talk about that later and while I'm opening and doing all these small tasks with my hands, I'm talking to Muse, to Saul saying, hey, here's what I need from Walmart. Go ahead and do the the soonest delivery and I need this and I start listing everything off and it will deliver it. It did it like literally did the whole process for me and all I had to do is say, yes, go ahead and place the order and it would do it. I do the same thing with Fortuna which is our coffee provider, all of our cups, paper products, the syrups that we don't make, frat-based, all that kind of stuff comes from Fortuna. So, I just say, Hey, Saul, I need from Fortuna for Tuesday's order. Thank you. It puts the thing together. I don't have to worry about it. Where the system needs to be built is that every time if something goes wrong or is just slightly off, I need to tweak it and you go back and say, hey, for future reference, don't do this. For example, we ran out of pickles. We have pickle spears that we put with every single sandwich, wrap, or salad that we sell and we ran out of those and the delivery doesn't come until Wednesday. I said, hey, can you pick up some pickle spears from there? Uh we've never ordered pickles from Walmart before so it was just whatever. It said, hey, I picked one out. It it they're on the way along with the rest order. When it get there, they're pickle chips. We don't sell pickle chips. We don't really need anything for that. So, I told Saul hey, for future reference, don't ever get pickle chips ever. We do pickle pickle spears and it's a good to know future reference. Point is this, the system that is being built can be perfected in like six months to where it really is me just saying, hey, here's our normal order. Go ahead and do it and then, I don't have to think about it. Everything comes as it should be as I want it to be but you have to build it over time and I think there's like a principle in there that no matter what you're doing, if something doesn't at first, go back and find tune it and tweak it. Never ditch it. Don't just like be done with it. Go back and fine tune it, tweak it, make it to what you wanted to be because six months from now, this virtual assistant is going to be locked in and it's going to make my life so much better but right now, there are a lot of things I have to tweak and fine tune.

Why it made the cut

A fleet of parallel assistants can run a shop's restocking by voice, but the real system is the fine-tuning loop: every mistake becomes a standing instruction.
