The outcome

Leave with a short, reversible next-step plan that distinguishes feelings, assumptions, facts, and decisions.

Pi is a personal conversational AI assistant from Inflection AI. Reflective conversation, brainstorming, goal clarification, rehearsal, and low-stakes personal organization in a warm conversational format. This guide narrows that broad capability into one repeatable outcome, with checkpoints that keep the source material and your judgment in the loop.

Before you begin

Set the boundary before the tool starts.

Choose one real task, identify who will use the result, and decide what evidence or test will make the result acceptable. Gather only the source material needed for that task. If the work contains confidential, personal, regulated, or client-owned information, confirm that the platform and account are approved before sharing it.

Troiana principle

AI should make the work easier to inspect. If the workflow removes the source, the owner, or the review step, redesign the workflow.

Step by step

A workflow you can repeat.

  1. 01

    State the low-stakes decision, deadline, options, constraints, and what kind of support you want while omitting identifying or highly sensitive details.

  2. 02

    Ask Pi to reflect your goals and concerns, then correct any mistaken assumptions before requesting suggestions.

  3. 03

    Generate several options with benefits, costs, uncertainties, reversible first steps, and questions that require a person or authoritative source.

  4. 04

    Check factual, health, legal, financial, workplace, and relationship implications with appropriate independent sources or trusted people.

  5. 05

    Choose one small action yourself, schedule a review point, export only useful non-sensitive notes, and delete conversation material you do not want retained.

Working standard

What good use looks like.

  • Use Pi for reflection, not authority.
  • Keep real people in the support loop.
  • Prefer reversible next steps.

Pi is designed to feel personal and emotionally intelligent, which can encourage over-trust or over-disclosure. It is not a therapist, emergency service, lawyer, doctor, or financial adviser. Inflection states that information may be used to develop and train its models, applies moderation and human review in some cases, and has specific retention rules. Minimize sensitive data, preserve real human support, verify consequential claims, and use history export and deletion controls deliberately.
