AI should take work off your plate, not become another job to keep up with

Peter Yang

I know what it feels like to come home after a busy day at work to learn AI at night. Every week, there’s a new model, tool, and workflow you’re supposedly behind on.

People often ask how I balanced a full-time job, a creator business, and two kids. The truth is that I built a personal AI system to take recurring work off my plate.

I built this membership so you can copy the same system without spending months stitching together prompts, tutorials, and tools. You’ll also get a full year of new workflows, live workshops, and direct access to me as AI changes.

Build your personal AI system in five steps

Module 1 is available now. Modules 2–5 are coming later this summer. Start with an AI chief of staff for email and calendar. Then teach AI how you work, turn your judgment into reusable skills, and copy the workflows I use to run my business. No code required.

Build an AI chief of staff in an afternoon to manage your email and calendar.

  • Connect Gmail, Calendar, and Drive
  • Delegate your inbox and calendar to one Chief of Staff thread
  • Wake up to a daily brief of top priorities and emails that need replies

Set up a personal AI workspace that remembers your goals, projects, and preferences.

  • Create an AI advisor for long-term goals and decisions
  • Organize projects, threads, and instructions around your work
  • Run it by voice or from your phone

Identify the five recurring workflows AI should help you automate first.

  • Use my audit process to find recurring manual work
  • Work with AI to map every step and identify where it can help the most
  • Draft a consolidated brief to give AI context to start building skills

Turn your judgment into reusable skills that improve every time you use them.

  • Turn your manual workflows into reusable AI skills
  • Test the skill on real work and build automated evals to check quality
  • Capture feedback so the skill improves over time

Start with 8+ proven workflows I use to run my business and modify them to suit your needs.

  • Work: Meeting prep, customer insights, deep research, and writing in your voice
  • Life: Weekly planning, finance reviews, health coaching, and file cleanup
  • Adapt each workflow to your tools, context, and standards

Peter's AI lessons are incredibly actionable. I've implemented at least five workflows directly from Behind the Craft that saved my team hours every week.

FAQ

When does the Personal OS course launch?

Module 1 is available now. Modules 2–5 are coming later this summer.

Is this a course or a membership?

It’s a membership that includes the 20+ lesson Personal OS course when it launches. You also get my skills and workflows, monthly workshops, private Slack community, newsletter, and every update I ship during your paid year.

How quickly can I get something useful working?

Module 1 will help you build an AI chief of staff in an afternoon. You’ll connect the apps you already use and create a daily email and calendar brief before moving on to more advanced workflows.

What kind of work can my personal AI system automate?

Start with recurring work such as email and calendar management, meeting prep, research, customer insights, writing, planning, and business reviews. You’ll learn how to map each workflow, teach AI your standards, and turn it into a reusable skill.

Do I need to code or buy another stack of AI tools?

You don’t need to code. You’ll need access to ChatGPT and Codex or Claude. Some workflows use optional third-party tools, and every lesson tells you what you need before you begin.

Can I use this safely with company tools and data?

Every company has its own AI and data policies. The course helps you choose what to connect and start with lower-risk workflows, but you should only use tools and data approved by your employer.
