Levels in learning It can feel intimidating when you're trying to learn AI tools from scratch, behind the crowd. That's okay, though. We have a quick and easy way to gauge your skill level with each AI tool. You can use this as a shorthand when talking about your skill level in this community, and beyond. L1 - Awareness - So, at this level, you've only heard about the tool. You may know it works in theory, but have never tried it. You're brand new to it. L2 - Working knowledge of features - You've explored the capabilities of the tool and used it a bit. That's about it. L3 - AI-assisted self-learning - Here is the secret sauce of the AI Rapid Mastery System. You can actually USE A.I. TO TEACH YOU ABOUT ITSELF!! There are 2 ways to do this: 1 Each tool has a public showcase area where other members' products and prompts are showcased. This helps you to learn from what has already been done by others. 2 Use conversational AI tools to create your own personal report about the tool you are using. Be specific and list what you want, your limitations (break it down to like 3rd grade level, etc.) to get the best results. L4 - Limitation awareness This is where you become fairly proficient in the specific tool--but you have one more subtle hurdle to overcome. You have to push the envelope of the tool to see its limitations (advanced). This expose failures in controlled experiments before they show up in your outputs. For example, learn when the chatgpt results come out more robotic and "corporate" than "humanized" This is especially important if you are offering your services commercially. L5 - Mastery Welcome, Master. Take your seat.
