For the next few weeks, I've decided I can't sustain my YouTube channel until I satisfy my craving for AI to assist me with my business initiatives.
Across LinkedIn, people are fairly confused about how to pick up enough AI skills to remain relevant.
This is also a problem I'm struggling with, but it's really worth the struggle. Over the past 48 hours, AI also converted all my course materials into a textbook that may be published in the future.
There are simply too many questions on my mind.
a) What would happen if my industry woke up and started using AI aggressively?
Will investment courses become more AI-driven or human in character? I think Dr Wealth's position is that investment training will become more narrative-driven and human, but I'm inclined to bet otherwise. But we can advance both agendas in one go, make the course more powerful and intuitive at the same time, while preserving the student's human judgment. I don't really value things like emotions and empathy because they don't make me much money in the markets, but I'm open-minded and willing to change.
b) How will content creation change?
Ideally, I should be so productive that I can work on my gigs and create more content on my channel, but I need to understand how professional content creators integrate the latest AI tools into their channels and whether there's a way to increase revenue at the same time (without generating AI slop). This means I need to watch a lot more YouTube videos to level up my skills in this area.
c) How do we even start an aggressive campaign to up our AI skills?
Anyone who can crack this can make a lot of money. At the moment, I'm just clinging to Claude Anthropic's courses and trying to get as many certificates under my belt, but what I really crave is to develop several consequential personal projects to learn about agents and level up my course materials. I want to reshape my CV into something a 25-year-old might have, a portfolio of tangible projects and proven results.
The culmination of all these changes means that I can, at best, focus on my business and gigs in the next quarter while I invest most of my time learning about AI to see how far I can push it.
And since I barely do any conventional work, there are very few efficiency gains from AI unless I dream up and create new products like simple mobile apps, a personal productivity tool, and at least one D&D module for 4th-level PCs. I'm cognisant that in such a situation, FIRE can lead to complacency as the flow of dividends just provides so much incentive to let the world just pass by. At this point in time, I'm glad that I still have a few gigs to run and would actually be teaching IT to poly students next semester.
If you are a reader and wish to help me out, send me details about when Gen Z are meeting to discuss things like Open Claw or Claude.
I'd like to join to learn, by osmosis, what these young engineers or computer scientists are thinking.
