How to Use Brainy AI Without Getting Distracted

AI assistants are useful. But they're also rabbit holes.

You ask one question. It suggests something interesting. You ask another. Then another. An hour later, you're deep in a conversation that has nothing to do with your work.

Deep Focus has Brainy AI built in. But it's designed differently — with controls that keep you on task.

Per-Profile AI Controls

You can restrict Brainy AI per profile:

• Block it entirely during deep work
• Allow it but prevent off-topic conversations
• Set custom prompts to keep it focused on your task

I block Brainy during "Deep Work" sessions. Allow it during "Research" sessions with off-topic prevention enabled.

What Changed

I use AI when I need it. Not when I'm bored. The profile controls enforce the boundary.
