AI agents helps a lot with the daily tasks like keyword alerts, competitor search and lead generation. Currently exploring more about using it for marketing. It helps me on the R&D part effectively.

content for tier 1 man.. used to pay writers 5 bucks an article for web 2.0 filler, now its free and better. that's the one place it saved me real money, everything else i still edit
ps : again content thanks to agents now filling all the options, fields by different tools like gsa ser, rankerx etc by a single clicks before that i had to book a day and setting up those campaigns lol

I think it saves time but burn as well. Take an example of me yesterday I was trying to make a logo a website logo according to the theme I had a letter b which I want to make it according to the gradient color of the website theme.
Gemini made half the logo right like according to that theme but other was messed up I spend 1 hour telling it the part you made is right make all that logo according to that. But, it was not making it and I had to send it to a graphic designer

i mostly use it for repetitive tasks like summaries, ideas and basic data work. that's where i actually notice the time savings.

for me AI saves the most time when i already know what i want
if i ask it to do everything from zero i usually spend too much time fixing the output. but if i give it the raw idea and use it for research, comparing options or cleaning up the final version, thats where it actually saves me time
more like an assistant than a replacement

The saving tracks how cheaply you can check the output, not how fast it's produced. If verifying costs about as much as writing it yourself, you've only moved the work. Tasks with a right answer, a fixed format, or a loud failure are where the hours actually come back.

If you already have skills for something, then using AI can speed up the process, but except for "speeding up the process," I believe AI does nothing more for anyone.
For me personally, using AI has rarely produced any kind of result.
For example, if I need to write an article, then
-I am the one who comes up with all the points that I am about to explain.
-I am the one who writes the beginning for all the points.
AI just helps me finish sentences faster, but even then, that sucks because I usually write in flow.
So, in the end, using AI rarely saves me any significant amount of time.
