There's a fascinating detail..

In behavioral psychology, it's well-established that it takes about 21 days to rewire any automatic human behavior. Not sure if many experts know it and understand it, but three weeks of working with John perfectly aligns with that exact cycle.

I genuinely wish you the best – your students have a real opportunity to update their autopilot. The timing factor is crucial! John's formula is incredibly precise.

Love this, Mila, the 21-day cycle lining up that way was not an accident.

“The first agent feels like a trick. The fourth one feels like the floor” is a great line.

One useful build saves you from a small annoyance. Then you realise half your week is that same annoyance wearing different clothes.

I really like the wordings you use such as a defined universe — everything else is excluded. Great breakdown!! Thanks, John!

Without a doubt this is the must have skill at the moment. So glad you are offering this John!

Appreciate that, Sonia, the timing on this one really could not be better.

Thank you, Chris, build one, build two, build three and the work starts changing fast.

AI fluency is such a key skill, quickly becoming a must-have nowadays. I also love the branding, well done.

Grateful for that, Joel, the operators who build it now are the ones who won't be catching up later.

AI can be both a huge timesaver and a huge timesink - knowing what to build is key

AI fluency is starting to look less like knowing the tools and more like knowing what to build with them.

Pick a real thing that’s annoying enough to fix, then build around that.

You learn a lot faster when the problem is yours and the mess is real.

Very structured breakdown of how they’re turning AI from a tool into a repeatable operating system for research and analysis
