I enrolled because I needed to work smarter. I wanted to understand AI in a responsible way, not just experiment blindly. I was hoping to learn how to research better, prototype faster, and build meaningful things without burning out.
I feel clearer. More grounded. Less overwhelmed. AI stopped feeling like hype and started feeling like a structured thinking partner.
The biggest change has been in how I build. I move from idea to test much faster. I validate before over-investing. I keep humans in the loop. I trust my thinking more.
1. Speed is useful, but discernment is everything.
2. Prototyping beats perfectionism.
3. AI works best when paired with responsibility and heart.
Because it gives you structure in the middle of chaos. It teaches you how to think with AI, not depend on it. And for someone balancing business and a child in medical care, that clarity has been powerful.
