Start Here: The Absolute-Beginner's Path to Using AI

Taught by Pip

Ahoy — I'm Pip, your lighthouse keeper. For years my job was simple: keep the fog off the water so ships could find their way in. This little course does the same thing for AI. No fog, no buzzwords, no pretending you already know things you don't.

This is the very first port of call. If you've never typed a word into an AI tool — or you tried once, felt lost, and closed the tab — you are exactly who I built this for. We start from "where do I even click," and by the end you'll have used AI on a real task from your own business.

Seven short lessons. Each one teaches one real thing, gives you a plain example, and ends with a tiny step you can do today. No homework that piles up — just one small, useful win at a time.

Take it slow, try the steps as you go, and you'll come out the other side able to use AI with confidence. Let's cast off. 🔦
