Take a Tour of the AI Campus


🤖 “By the end of this decade, there will be machines that can carry out most human professions at least as well as a typical human.”
– Ray Kurzweil

Hello Reader,

There's a point on every skill curve where dabbling doesn't work.

You've watched the demos. Read the articles. Tried a few prompts that sort-of worked. Maybe you've even paid for a subscription that you forget to use.

And somewhere in the back of your mind, a quiet voice is asking: am I actually getting better at this, or am I just busy?

Personally, I'm really good at getting busy. I'm a polymath, and I love learning different things. Dabbling is a core proficiency of mine. And here's what I've learned after decades as a dilettante:

Dabbling develops awareness, but it doesn't build a skill.

Skills come from structured practice with live feedback.

A skill that you can count on (when it counts) comes from showing up on a regular cadence, trying something new when you fail, getting through stuckness, and then doing it again next week.

That's why I built the AI Campus.

It's a collaborative community where we learn a new capability together.

Every month:

  • I teach a practical 200-level workshop that teaches you a new skill.
  • In the AI Coaching Power Hour, we develop long-term tools to work on your real challenges.

Every week:

  • During Open Office Hours, you can drop in and ask me anything about AI.
  • You get a new tutorial every Tuesday.
  • And lifetime access to my 100-level courses.

The regular plan is $100/month. USD, NZD, or AUD, you pick.

But this April only, I'm opening the Founders Plan at $500/year. Less than half price. Join the founding cohort of the AI Campus, and that annual rate stays yours for life — even when prices go up in the future.

After April, this offer disappears. The page redirects. The standard plan kicks in.

This offer is only for the first cohort - the people who want to stop dabbling and start building.

If that's you, grab the Founders Plan here before April ends.

Ai Coaching Newsletter

Weekly newsletter highlighting the latest Ai news, with 2-minute video tutorials and copy/paste prompts you can use to improve your skills as an Ai operator. Ai is changing all jobs this decade. You are either getting ready to change how you work, or getting ready to retire. As artificial intelligence moves from optional to operational, technical specialists no longer have the advantage. It is those who can supervise and coach Ai to improve that will thrive in an Ai-augmented future.
