The First Day of AI
A blog changed my life on November 30th, 2022. And it changed yours too.
This is the First Day of AI.
“Chat with GPT” (its original name) is live since 24h.
1 million users. Everyone is going frantic on Twitter.
I was a 25-year old ghostwriter, sending briefs left & right to freelancers. I was teaching them how I search, format & design content.
I wanted them to have my vision, taste and experience; but instead felt at the edge of burning out.
But on November 30th 2022, I stopped everything I was doing.
Some said I can “train” this new chatbot — an “AI”.
So I spend the entire day trying, not knowing it would change everything.
No “How” of “AI” without code.
I hit my first AI wall.
ChatGPT had a loooooong documentation on how to use it.
But 99.9% of it is… for coders.
API. Integration. LLM. NLP. Token. Context. Python. JSON.
Worse: everything outside of their documentation is just academic papers.
And I couldn’t understand a single word:
Zero shot prompting.
Few-shot prompting.
Chain-of-Thought prompting.
Perspective Transition prompting.
…
There was no “How” of this new “AI” for people who can’t code.
People like you & me.
‘How to AI’ was born.
I spent an entire weekend reading technical documentation, academic papers, Twitter threads, Discord chats, blogs…
I only kept the 1% that was not technical.
I compiled my learnings & wrote my first Linkedin post about the ‘How’ of ‘ChatGPT’ on December 7th, 2022.
1.5 million impressions. 7,000+ likes. 1,000+ comments.
And an insane amount of questions:
“How can I use ChatGPT for SEO articles?”
“Can I prompt AI to search for me?”
“How can I master AI as an HR?”
So I kept going.
☑ 2x daily posts on Linkedin. Every single day.
☑ I went from 8,000 to 600,000+ followers.
☑ I reached over 200 million views.
I went on stage to share my how-to guides in Los Angeles, Paris, Copenhagen, Tel Aviv at events like VidCon, B2B Summit, RAISE or Google Campus.
Still, most of my focus went into writing my Linkedin posts.
But they keep lacking something: depth.
That’s why I started this blog: “How to AI”.
Every Sunday, I go as deep as I can for us to master the How of AI, with English and not code.
Because I believe AI will make some of us super-humans. We will accomplish what was previously only possible with a 1,000+ people team.
It’s not just about the fear of being replaced. I know my tagline “Master AI before it masters you” kind of suggests it, I’ll give you that.
It’s about us catching the once-in-a-lifetime revolution.
Too late for the Age of Exploration.
Too late for steam and factories.
Too late for the internet boom.
But perfectly on time for AI.
So dare joining us. Master AI with English, not code.
