Action items often get lost in lengthy meeting notes. ChatGPT excels at extracting and organizing tasks with clear owners and deadlines. Use prompts like: "Extract all action items from these meeting notes [paste notes]. Format as: Task | Owner | Due Date | Priority."

For accountability, be specific: "Identify action items from this discussion and tag each with the person who volunteered or was assigned. If no owner is clear, mark as 'TBD'. Include any mentioned deadlines or dependencies."

ChatGPT can also identify implicit commitments: "Review these notes and extract both explicit action items and implied commitments (where someone said they'd look into something). Separate into two lists: confirmed actions and potential follow-ups to clarify."
