Average American: 12 subscriptions
Actually uses: 3.5
Monthly waste: $189
You pay for:
50,000 movies you'll never watch

Algorithms designed to waste your time
What you actually want: Something specific. Right now. Perfect for you.
ChatGPT gives you exactly that. Nothing else.
The 10 Prompts That Replaced Everything
1. The Netflix Killer
"I have 45 minutes. Mood: [tired/energized/sad]. Liked: [last 3 shows]. Hated: [what annoyed you]. Find me something to watch on free platforms (Tubi/Pluto/YouTube) that's actually good. Include exact title and where to find it."
Better recommendations than Netflix's $15 billion algorithm. Free.
2. The Spotify Replacement
"Create a 45-minute playlist for [activity: working/gym/sleeping]. Mood: [describe]. Include: YouTube links to each song, why it fits, optimal order. No ads, no premium needed."
Perfect playlists. Zero ads with browser blocker. Saved $11/month.
3. The Personal MasterClass
"Teach me [skill] like you're the world's best instructor. Break into 10-minute daily lessons for next week. Include: exercises, examples, homework. Make it better than a $180 MasterClass."
Learned video editing, Excel, investing. Saved $2,160/year.
4. The Book Summary Machine
"I was going to buy [book title]. Instead, give me: core concepts, best examples, actionable takeaways, what to skip, one exercise to get 80% of value. Save me 8 hours."
"Read" 52 books this year. Audible subscription: Cancelled. Saved $179/year.
5. The Movie Critic Filter
"Movie: [title]. My taste: [describe what you like/hate]. Tell me in 30 seconds: Will I like it? What parts to skip? Is the ending worth it? Where to watch free?"
Never waste 2 hours on bad movies again. Time saved: Priceless.
6. The Podcast Brain
"Podcast episode: [name and episode]. Extract: main insights, best quotes, actionable advice, timestamp of best part. Should I listen to full thing or is this enough?"
Get value from 10 podcasts in time for one. No ads. No fluff.
7. The Kids' Entertainment System
"Kid is [age], likes [interests], needs [30 minutes] entertainment. Find: free YouTube channels that are actually educational, specific videos, no toy ads, no brain rot. Include backup options."
Disney+ cancelled. Kids happier. Learning more. Saved $14/month.
8. The Documentary Replacer
"I want to learn about [topic]. Find: best free YouTube documentaries, TED talks, lectures. Rank by: actually interesting, good production, under 30 minutes. Include why each is worth watching."
Better than Netflix documentaries. Actually educational. Free.
9. The Workout Video Creator
"Create a [30-minute] workout for [goal: strength/cardio/flexibility]. My level: [beginner/intermediate]. Equipment: [what you have]. Include: exact exercises, reps, rest periods, YouTube links to form videos."
Cancelled Peloton app ($13), fitness apps ($30), YouTube Premium ($14). Total saved: $57/month.
10. The Language Learning Stack
"I was paying for Duolingo Plus ($84/year). Create better system: daily 10-minute lessons, free resources only, speaking practice, real-world phrases. Make it actually work."
Speaking Spanish after 3 months. Duolingo: 2 years of owls, zero conversations.
