The AI explosion has course creators asking: "What should I automate, and what needs my personal touch?" Getting this balance wrong either strips your course of personality OR leaves you drowning in busywork. Here's how to get it right: AUTOMATE THESE: - Course outlines & structure: Let AI give you the skeleton, then customize the flow - First drafts of scripts: Break through creative blocks, then add your voice - Slide design & visuals: Tools like Canva Magic Design save hours - Video editing & repurposing: Turn long content into bite-sized lessons automatically - Email sequences & sales copy: Generate first drafts, then rewrite in your style - Research & competitive analysis: Speed up brainstorming and market insights ❤️ KEEP THESE HUMAN: - Your teaching strategy & course goals: Only you know your transformation promise - Personal stories & real examples: AI has no lived experience to draw from - Welcome videos & course wrap-ups: Students need to see the real you - Your unique voice & teaching style: This is what makes you irreplaceable - Emotional connections: Empathy, vulnerability, and encouragement can't be automated - Strategic content decisions: You decide what matters most to your audience Let AI handle the repetitive, technical, and structural work. YOU handle the strategic, emotional, and relational aspects. What's one task you've started automating? And what do you always keep 100% human?
