If you’ve ever felt like AI tools are speeding up your workflow but frying your brain at the same time, this episode is for you.
Paul is joined by Natalie Mackenzie, Cognitive Strategist, Certified Business Strategist, and all-round brain health geek. Natalie works with entrepreneurs and business owners to help them understand how their brain works best, and how to protect it long term for success.
In The Big Breakdown, we explore:
How AI is affecting our cognitive load and the long-term implications for our brains.
Whether AI is making us smarter or lazier at problem solving.
Practical strategies to stay focused while leveraging AI tools.
Why human connection still matters for brain health, even in an AI-driven world.
The biggest risks AI poses to younger generations.
In Buzzword Bingo, Natalie explains what cognition really means, and why understanding it changes how we approach both tech and business.
Session Time Limit PromptDuring the episode Natalie asked Paul if you can set a session time limit on ChatGPT to prevent it from causing cognitive overload.
Whilst ChatGPT can act as an accountability partner, the enforcement has to come from you or your device settings. However, here's the prompt mentioned in the episode to help you to protect your time, and brain health.
At the start of your session, tell ChatGPT:
"Act as my time-keeper. I want to use ChatGPT for 20 minutes only. Remind me at the halfway point (10 mins in) and stop answering my questions after 20 minutes, instead telling me to take a break."
That way, it will respect the boundary and stop engaging when the time’s up. Note, you’ll still be able to override it, but it adds friction and accountability.
