Solo Episode: What I’d Do Differently If I Was Learning AI for the First Time
About this episode
In this episode of How I AI, I’m sharing key updates, must-know AI news, and a personal reflection on what I would do differently if I were starting my AI journey today.
You’ll hear about a powerful research paper on the future of work with AI agents, why the U.S. government just invested hundreds of millions into AI companies, and the viral YouTube interview that breaks down which jobs are at the highest risk of automation.
This solo episode is for anyone who feels behind, overwhelmed, or unsure how to begin using AI in a way that actually fits your business, energy, and creative goals.
