This Ford exec put her family's Claude assistant on a PIP. ChatGPT has taken over.

Whitney Stefko Dover built a family chief of staff with Anthropic's Claude. The agent, named Claudette, has fresh competition for her job.

One mother crafted her family's chief of staff. She is now replacing the original with a new assistant in a performance improvement plan. Whitney Stefko Dover shared her experience with a Claude-built family chief of staff to Business Insider three months ago. The AI agent, Claudette, has been replaced by a ChatGPT agent named Gigi.

Claudette had organized the Dover family's emails and calendars into a morning briefing called the Daily Dover, covering school schedules, childcare, travel, birthdays, and chores. Gigi, built on the ChatGPT Work platform, has taken over the responsibilities, offering a better interface, stronger first drafts, and proactive suggestions.

Stefko Dover, encouraged by her OpenAI-using husband, tried ChatGPT after reading a Substack post from A16Z. The switch to Gigi has been smooth, with the new assistant handling tasks like filling online shopping carts based on the family's grocery list. Stefko Dover acknowledged the need to own the context layer and ensure the agent's actions align with their supervision.

She mentioned adding a third assistant, Ingrid, to the family's AI org chart, which can carry out tasks through text messages and phone calls.

Intro I've been using claude for some time now. I haven't touched on routines in claude yet, and thought that this would be a good opportunity to play around with them and explore them.

  • Claude routines automate tasks using Claude Code.
  • Triggers include schedule, GitHub events, and API.
  • Routines run on Anthropic's infrastructure.
