This one's a little different, but I had fun putting it together. I hope you guys find it interesting! 100 Years of Artificial Intelligence Explained, and it starts with a 26-year-old building something in his parents' bedroom and a code that took an entire war to crack. I walk through the whole timeline: the two winters that nearly killed the field, the approach everyone wrote off as a dead end, and the single move that made a world champion walk away. This is 100 Years of Artificial Intelligence Explained, and honestly we're just getting started.

From $64K+ in closed deals to first paid projects, first workflows, and first technical builds - this week inside AIS+ showed what happens when builders stop consuming and start moving. Some wins were big money. Some were first steps. Both matter. 🚀 Standout Wins of the Week inside AIS+ 👉 @Jacob West closed two deals in one week — a $22.5K custom software build for a local gym and a $42K AI OS rollout for a mid-market energy business. 👉 @Luca Giovinazzo delivered his first full client project live — 11 n8n workflows, CRM, Telegram bot, inventory alerts, booking system, KPI tracking, user guide, and Loom walkthrough. 👉 @Fadwa Naboulssi landed her first client three weeks into the community — a candidate sourcing workflow on a $150-per-successful-hire commission. 👉 @George Maitland completed his first technical build using Claude Code + n8n MCP — a local content engine with Telegram as the command center. 👉 @James O Neill built a free portfolio site for a friend-of-a-friend’s side hustle… and she insisted on paying anyway. First real money landed. ⸻ 🎥 Super Win Spotlight | @Josh Holladay Josh joined AIS+ because he wanted more than scattered learning. He wanted momentum. Focused content. Better access. And a room full of people actually moving. Since joining, he has: - Closed real client work - Built stronger confidence around pricing and value - Used the portfolio course to get clear on where he was and what needed to happen next - Learned how to turn client conversations into real business opportunities - Found a place to celebrate wins with people who actually understand the journey
