I started building a personal AI agent using Claude Cowork to organize and prioritize my life. The biggest surprise? I sleep better. Knowing little is slipping through the cracks turns out to be worth more than the productivity gains. After a week of fine-tuning, I’d put it at roughly 75% accurate. Good enough to be useful, not good enough to be trusted completely. The honest caveat: the tooling is not easy. I’m not technical, and getting this working required real and ongoing effort. In parallel, I’ve been using Claude Opus for high-stakes thinking: scenario analysis, decision reviews, pressure-testing ideas. The depth of reasoning is legitimately impressive. It’s expensive compared with Sonnet and much more so compared against Haiku, so I use it selectively, like a senior advisor: not every question, just the ones that really matter. Anyone else building something similar? What are your big take away’s? submitted by /u/rt2828
