Priya, a high school basketball coach and physical education teacher.

Priya coaches the varsity basketball team and teaches two gym classes. On Thursday, she has practice at four, a parent email about playing time, and a game on Friday. Her desk holds a notebook, a stat sheet, and a half-finished practice plan.

Before lunch, she opens ChatGPT and types a prompt from the Practice Planning Basics lesson: 'Draft a 75-minute practice for a full roster, one gym, focus on help defense and fast breaks, with water breaks.' She adjusts the drills, then saves the plan.

After school, she uses the Individual Player Feedback prompt in Claude for her point guard who is rushing passes. She writes: 'Draft feedback for a sophomore point guard, strong speed, needs patience, give two goals and one drill.' She edits the note and sends it.

After Friday's game, she opens Gemini and tries the Analyzing Game Footage and Stats prompt with her handwritten notes: 'Our guards rushed passes, their zone slowed us down, and we lost energy after halftime. Find patterns and three practice fixes.' She turns the answer into Monday's plan. With the time she saves, Priya walks her dog before dinner and watches her daughter's soccer game without grading papers in the car.
