You don't need to know everything AI can do to start using it, in fact, thinking about all the possibilities is likely the very thing that’s preventing you from getting started. In this episode I walk through 4 big picture steps for how to get started using AI (to do things, not just answer questions) in a way that won’t overwhelm you. My biggest piece of advice: stop looking at what everyone else is building, start with your own problems, and when you get stuck, just ask the robot.
