Zero to AI Episode 2: From Certificates to Shipped Work

from Zero to AI · host zerotoai

This isn’t a dig at courses. I still think they’re important. But at some point, I realised: knowledge wasn’t the missing piece. Transfer was.  I needed a way to move from knowing about AI to using AI — to build something that worked in my world. So I flipped my learning plan on its head. Instead of treating courses as the path, I started using them as fuel. I stopped optimising for certificates… and started optimising for outcomes.  And once I shipped my first small thing — and saw it work — I was hooked.
