Hey,
I’m still buzzing after last night’s incredible AI Masterclass.
A total of 50 people joined my Zoom call, and despite a few technical hiccups on my end, the feedback has been heartwarming.
If I were to highlight one thing I’d love everyone to remember, it would be this:
The AI revolution has only been going on for about 2.5 years, yet all of us who recognized the opportunity early are already reaping the rewards today. The market is crystal clear. New skills now outweigh seniority and all academic degrees (as a lifelong overachiever with two bachelor’s degrees, two master’s, and almost a PhD, this is not easy to accept—but it’s true).
Companies are desperately seeking people who know how to turn AI potential into profit. These are people who can:
- Bridge the gap between technical capabilities and business applications
- Identify opportunities others miss because they understand both domains (AI + specific industry)
- Create AI solutions that weren’t possible or feasible before the era of artificial intelligence
While demand is enormous, supply is almost non-existent.
The problem is that most people try to fill this gap by frantically learning specific tools and models, only to become irrelevant a few months later when new ones emerge. They get stuck in what I like to call the “tutorial trap”: constantly following new tutorials on how to use a specific tool instead of mastering the logic and deeper understanding of the principles and mindset behind AI.
Don’t do that. You’re wasting your time.
Instead, focus on understanding the fundamental mental models behind AI, and try to grasp how to profit from artificial intelligence regardless of which specific tools dominate any given quarter.
The future of work is being written now, and like every revolution, it will create winners and losers.
It’s crucial to choose a side as soon as possible.
I hope I helped everyone who joined me last night take a step in that direction.
For the rest—there will be more opportunities like this.
Talk soon!
Ajla
