I especially do this when I use the mic to input my requests. I find it hilarious when it expresses gratitude for my politeness. Raise your hand if you're saying please and thank-you to AI?

I created a notebook called AI Competency in NotebookLM. I've been adding expert sources to it for about a week. This report has lots of positives for spaces like the ones SKOOL communities offer! I think this info is so relevant to so many communities that I'm posting it in multiple ones that I belong to (sorry in advance for any repetition). Learning in public helps build a personal brand by turning your individual education into a strategy for distribution and audience engagement. Instead of waiting to "build" a finished product, you share the "nuggets" of what you are currently discovering—such as three things you learned about a new AI tool—on platforms like TikTok, LinkedIn, or Instagram. The sources identify several key ways this process strengthens a personal brand: - Overcoming Impostor Syndrome: Learning in public removes the need for "posturing" as an expert. By being truthful about your situation—whether you are a student, working from home, or recently laid off—you build an authentic brand based on your actual journey rather than a manufactured persona. - Effective Peer-to-Peer Teaching: The most effective teacher is often someone only a "couple of steps ahead" of their audience. Because you were just in the learner's position, you can explain concepts in a way that helps others grasp the most important points more easily than a distant expert could. - High ROI and Leverage: Sharing even small findings, such as a "cool prompt" you tried, can attract significant interest. This creates a personal brand that acts as leverage for distribution, allowing you to reach and teach more people as you grow. - Creating a "Collective Immune System": Beyond individual gain, building a brand through public learning allows you to contribute to a "collective immune system" for society. By spreading clarity about new technologies, you help provide the "antibodies" needed to navigate complex changes like the rise of AI. - Accelerated Skill Acquisition: Sharing what you learn helps you acquire new skills faster because it forces you to clarify your thoughts and engage with a community.

and what made you stick around?

Have you heard of the Doomsday AI report? (aka the Citrini Research Report) "The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis" triggered a significant sell-off in technology and financial stocks. The report, written as a "thought experiment" from a fictional June 2028 perspective, warns that artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a competent substitute for human intelligence, leading to the "unwind" of the historical premium placed on human cognitive labor.

I am LITERALLY CRYING at the perfection! Two. Years. (or more) I have been DREAMING about this for OVER TWO FRACKING YEARS. First time in 100+ builds I pulled in Figma. That was fun. Not sure I want to incur an additional $20/month, tho. I tried other tools, but Figma just gets me. Anyone have an alternative? Preferably cheaper or free? Built with Claude Code 'cause pretending otherwise is just that. I Dream. I Spec. Claude Delivers.... unless it's down. 🤣
