EP 1 Season 1: Build Your Own Kai
AI for beginners: you're not behind. Start here.
Everyone talks about AI like you already get it, so this one starts from zero. Kai shows what a chat AI really is (a very good guesser of the next word), the four things it does for you (chat, write, see and do), and the catch: it can make things up and sound sure about it, so you check. Then you have your first real chat, with a free file that asks six short questions about your week and hands back ten jobs an AI could take off your plate.

The free kit
First chat prompt
Six short questions about your week, then a ranked list of ten jobs an AI could take off your plate. One text file, nothing to install. It works the same in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok.
