curious_vii · x · 2026-08-07

The author shares an in-depth look at their recent "mobile work" experiments, leveraging ChatGPT and Claude in the background to handle tasks and coordinate schedules while walking outdoors or traveling to new locations.

Specific AI Applications in the Workflow:

Route & Schedule Optimization: Given a fixed lunch appointment, the author asked Claude to search and recommend beautiful, hidden-gem destinations, establishing a routine of exploring new spots weekly.
Multiplayer Coordination: For a themed day trip with friends, GPT (Ultra mode) was used in the background to handle complex logistics like planning, restaurant reservations, and ticketing, performing exceptionally well.

Hardware & Experience Pain Points:

Walking and looking at distant objects noticeably improved thought quality and relaxation during client calls.
The transition to mobile work is still bottlenecked by the overall travel experience, such as public transit and autonomous driving regulations.
On the hardware side, the author complained about poor iPhone battery life, recommending a magnetic wallet with a kickstand and an Anker power bank. A DJI Neo 2 drone is also recommended for capturing high-fidelity social media content on the move.
