Tiny Win Check-InšŸ…
We want to start celebrating real-life AI wins happening inside this community, even the very small ones. Did you try something from one of the lessons that was helpful, use an idea we shared, save a little time, understand something better, or anything else? Drop your tiny (or big) win below. We would love to celebrate them all! šŸŽ‰

Just this morning I was working with Claude to understand and possibly implement AEO. (Answer Engine Optimization) Basically it's a relatively new approach to online marketing involving writing and formatting online content so AI search tools can easily find and cite content from one's site as an answer to a user's question. I asked Claude to analyze a specific site with a view of AEO and what might be needed. Claude started indexing the site and then opened up a browser window and asked permission to access pages on the site! That was the first time I've used Claude where it took external action and interfaced with other online tools to do what I asked. Cool! After doing that, it drafted a brief I can use to turn over to site builders to implement the needed changes.
NEW LESSON IS LIVE šŸ”„
Prompt like a Pro is the next lesson in the Claude for Beginners course and is now available in the Classroom. If you're new to Claude and haven't yet checked out the course, there are now five lessons available to help you get started. For those who have watched them, we'd love any feedback you are willing to share. This helps us a lot! More to come!

@Spring Baker - I get it. So you had a cool virtual party! šŸ™‚
Fun ChatGPT use case! šŸ“ø
I wanted to create a social media post to promote this Skool community. I gave ChatGPT a photo of me, an inspiration photo, and one simple prompt, and wallah! ChatGPT trumps Claude in image generation. šŸ’Æ What is something you tried with AI this week that helped you in some way?

Cool! I've used Grok to show me ideas of how my front yard could be designed and using particular plants to change from a lawn to a xeroscape yard with native, drought tolerant plants. I got a full plan and images that showed how it could work. Wasn't very accurate as to the layout and such but it gave me a good idea of how to proceed.
5-minute ā€œsteal the formatā€ IG idea šŸŽ„
If you’re creating content on IG, or you’ve been wanting to, this is a simple use case you’re definitely going to want to try. I pulled up an IG reel from an AI influencer I love onto the side of my screen and opened Claude on the other side. I played the reel out loud and turned the microphone on in Claude. Claude transcribed it. Then I told Claude to swap out a couple of points more fitting for me, to make it more in my voice, and then it rewrote a script to use for my reel. That’s it! No typing out the transcript by hand, no staring at a blank page trying to come up with content, and no overthinking it. The lesson isn’t ā€œcopy other peopleā€, it’s that inspiration is everywhere and the gap between ā€œI love thatā€ and ā€œI made my own versionā€ used to be hours, now it’s minutes. Try this out and let me know how it goes. šŸŽ„

Great idea. I recently did a similar thing using another tool. Hadn't even considered using the Claude microphone tool. Smart!
AI uses Emdash...
I've seen, via social media, a kind of backlash about the use of emdash in writings. Apparently, this is considered an automatic signal that AI was used to generate the writing/report/story, etc. So, I went to an AI and asked about it. Here is the response: The em dash (—) has become a psychological trigger for AI suspicion because Large Language Models (LLMs) use it with a statistical frequency and technical perfection that human writers rarely match. [1] While humans have used the em dash for centuries to add dramatic pauses or break up thoughts, AI uses it as a mechanical "structural crutch". This overuse has trained readers to subconsciously associate the punctuation mark with robotic writing. [1, 2, 3] šŸ¤– Why AI Models Love the Em Dash - Mathematical Safety: AI models operate by predicting the next most likely word or character. An em dash is highly versatile; it allows the AI to pivot, inject context, or extend a sentence without committing to rigid grammar rules like those required by semicolons or colons. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] - Training Data Bias: LLMs are trained on vast amounts of high-quality journalism, academic papers, and literature—genres where professional editors frequently use em dashes. The AI mirrors these highly-rated sources. [, 2, 3] - Hyper-Correct Formatting: Humans typing quickly in a business report usually take shortcuts, typing a simple hyphen (-) or a double hyphen (--). AI outputs the exact, elongated Unicode character (—) flawlessly every single time, making it stand out as unnervingly "perfect". [1, 2, 3] - Compounding Clues: The em dash rarely acts alone. When a reader sees multiple em dashes paired with typical AI "buzzwords" (like delve, testament, tapestry, or pivotal), the brain instantly recognizes the pattern of machine-generated text
