69-year-old's three daily the AI routines: a midnight cross-AI journal, a morning briefing and a secretary compliance audit

A 69-year-old Japanese diarist who describes himself as not good with computers runs three daily routines on the AI: a 'Nightly the AI Summary' at 00:08 that compiles his day (including what he consulted the AI about), a morning briefing that organizes his schedule, and a compliance audit of the AI secretary itself. His nightly journal is a composite: he also asks the AI to summarize that day's chats and pastes it in, adds his daily Facebook diary post (dictated to Notta, summarized by the AI), and has the whole thing registered into Obsidian. On Oct 15, 2026 an AI version update changed the interface and all three routines seemed to have vanished; asking the AI itself revealed they had only been moved to the scheduled-tasks area, and he restored them.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. The AI runs a nightly summary at 00:08 compiling the day's consultations
  2. He pastes the AI’s summary of the same day and his Facebook diary text into it
  3. The combined journal is registered into Obsidian
  4. Each morning the AI briefs him on the day's schedule
  5. A third routine audits the secretary's compliance
  6. After an Oct 15 UI update hides the routines, the AI directs him to the scheduled-tasks list and he restores all three

Why it’s worth knowing

His journal is a relay between three AIs (Notta to the AI to the AI to Obsidian), and one of the standing routines is an audit of the AI secretary itself.
