Presenter: Patricia Rodriguez, Director of Resources and Operations, SJSU King Library

Start your day with a clearer view of what needs your attention. In this AdoptAI Drop-In, Patricia Rodriguez will demonstrate how an AI “chief of staff” can combine information from your email, calendar, and personal context to create a useful, personalized morning briefing.

You’ll learn a simple, practical approach for creating an AI assistant that can help you identify priorities, prepare for meetings, surface follow-up tasks, and organize the day ahead. Patricia will share a real-world example and discuss how the approach can be adapted to different roles, responsibilities, and work styles.

Then, put the idea into practice. Bring your laptop and consider the information you would want an AI assistant to understand about your work, priorities, and schedule. You’ll have time to experiment, ask questions, compare approaches with colleagues, and begin designing a morning briefing that works for you.
