You love doomerism. You click on it.

“AI will kill all humanity in 10 years!”

“Rogue AI agents will take over the world!”

“AI hacked the system and will wipe us out!”

Because you click, the media makes more of them. No one actually writes about how to get started with AI. To do simple things better, faster.

You see the world divided into 80/20.

The Pareto Rule.

You use 20% of the apps on your phone 80% of the time.
You wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time.
You listen to 20% of your music library 80% of the time. (Spotify Wrapped reminds you every December.)
80% of the wear on a carpet happens on 20% of it (where you walk).

So if 20% of the effort brings you 80% of the result, how long will it take to master 80% of AI?

If you start from zero, it takes 23 minutes.

I could sell you more.

I could tell you how hard AI is. Very hard.

I could tell you that you are behind. Very behind.

I could tell you that AI is full of secrets & mysteries. OnlyIhave the answers.

I could tell you I recorded hundreds of hours to decipher (I would use the word ‘decipher’ to sound intellectual) AI.

But I don’t.

I respect your time. You are a busy professional.

AI is getting easier with time. Not harder.

You just need to know how to start properly. Like a bike with wheels. It takes 23 minutes to bike by yourself.

This newsletter is free. You can read & implement it at your own time.

But some of you want more.

Here’s what $200 a year buys you (it’s 55 cents a day, less than a grapefruit!):

23 minutes to Pareto. A live session with me every week. I cover how to go from 0 to 80% with AI in only 23 minutes. Q&A at the end. Everything is recorded. The session repeats every week, with slight changes. You can join anytime you want. The next one is on Thursday, 23rd of September.
A community. You don’t need to join or participate. The lives are there (so you can easily access the past and future ones). It’s a nice-to-have. We answer your questions, and think of potential future classes. We have one on “How to use ChatGPT Astra to make killer video creatives”. Not everyone needs to make video creatives. You might.
Bunch of discounts. I negotiated over $1,000 worth of discounts (with companies like Gamma, Wispr Flow, Granola, HubSpot…). I don’t get any cut. It’s a win-win: you want to join us, and I get you discounts.
My articles’s bonuses. I always finish my articles’s topics until the end, for free. But I also add a bonus at the end with a paywall. You’ll have access to all previous and future ones.
The inverted Pareto. You will upgrade your subscription and join us. Then you will master 80% of AI in 23 minutes. But what’s next? My team & I are already working on the inverted Pareto: how to master the missing 20%. It takes much more effort, but we’ll include it too.

Sounds like a deal? I am leaving the live link after this paywall:
