Do you only focus on getting dividends when you need the payout to be received in cash instead of reinvesting it?

I wonder if i can start focusing on “passive income thru dividends” in another portion of my portfolio. Though i still have sources of cash and im 33 (not young but not that old) so my initial idea is to snowball the investment by targeting higher dividend net yields with regular payouts then reinvest the payouts

However some people in another subs mentioned that if i only gonna reinvest the payouts, then i should have just target growth investments rather than higher dividend yields… what are your thoughts? What do you do with the payouts?

Im contemplating whether:

To go for steady growth for capital gains

Or

High dividend yields, and then reinvest the payouts automatically

I am a remote end-user IT support (helpdesk/sysadmin), while I dont answer calls from the hotline, it still involves a lot of communication (chats, online call, remote desktop troubleshooting)

So far I only use chatgpt web base to ask questions/search for solutions and tune up my responses to customers. I feel like I am not maximizing the power of AI so I need more ideas

Any tips? How do you use AI in your work, esp if it is a company provided laptop? Are you able to install Claude and make some of your tasks fully automated
