Big decisions, clear head

Rent vs. buy, job offers: AI structures the decision. You make it.

The lesson

The decision-support pattern: lay out the choice, have AI surface the factors and trade-offs you haven't considered, put numbers where numbers belong — then notice that the values-weighing part is yours alone.

Try it — 60 seconds

I'm deciding between [A] and [B]. Interview me about what matters, then lay out the trade-offs in a table — including the factors I didn't mention but should consider. Don't pick for me.

Copy it into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini — whichever you already use. Fill in the brackets with your real life.

Watch out

AI is not a financial advisor, and it doesn't know your life. For decisions with long tails — houses, retirement, careers — it structures your thinking and a licensed human checks your math.
