Introducing Context Aware Task Writer AI
This feature aims to enhance productivity and efficiency by assisting with AI in the creation and organization of tasks within a Kanban board.
Key Features
AI-Assisted Task Creation: Users can generate tasks by typing a prompt. The AI interprets the prompt and assists in creating a detailed task, potentially saving time on manual input.
Context-Aware Responses: The AI utilizes existing context from the board, such as comments, activity logs, and headlines, to generate relevant task descriptions.
Dynamic Information Retrieval: Before generating a task, the AI accesses current project information, including the number of sections, members, owners, total tasks, and commonly used tags.
Custom Instructions: Users can provide specific instructions to tailor the AI's output to their unique requirements.
Seamless Integration: The AI Task Writer integrates with existing task management workflows, accessible via the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+J.
