AI COURSE
Learn to use AI as a thinking tool — not a crutch
A practical course for knowledge workers who want to use AI to work deeper, think clearer, and get more meaningful work done — without outsourcing their judgement.
THE PROBLEM
Most people are using AI wrong
The internet is full of AI tips and prompt libraries. But most of it focuses on speed and shortcuts — how to write emails faster, generate content in seconds, automate everything you can.
The problem is that speed isn't the bottleneck for most knowledge workers. Clarity is. Focus is. Knowing what to work on and how to think about it — that's what actually moves the needle.
This course takes a different approach. Instead of teaching you to do more, it teaches you to think better — using AI as a genuine partner in your cognitive workflow.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Built for people who do thinking for a living
Knowledge workers and professionals
You spend your days writing, analysing, planning, or problem-solving — and you want AI to enhance that work, not replace it.
Managers and team leads
You need to understand AI well enough to make smart decisions about how your team uses it.
Curious sceptics
You've heard the hype but haven't found a grounded, practical approach that actually fits how you work.
People who've tried and bounced off
You've used ChatGPT a few times but never built it into a real workflow. This course fixes that.
WHAT'S INSIDE
A clear path from curious to confident
The course is structured as a series of modules, each building on the last. Practical exercises throughout — not just theory.
Cut through the hype. Understand how large language models work, what they're good at, what they're terrible at, and why that matters for how you use them.
Build a practical AI-assisted workflow for a task you do every week. Not a party trick — a genuine productivity gain you'll keep using.
Learn to use AI for brainstorming, stress-testing ideas, and clearing cognitive load — without outsourcing your actual thinking.
Practical techniques for using AI in the knowledge work that matters most: writing clearly, researching efficiently, and analysing information.
Pull everything together into a personalised system that fits your role, your tools, and how you actually work day-to-day.
The tools will keep changing. This module gives you a framework for evaluating new AI capabilities and deciding what's worth adopting.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Hi, I'm Stephen
I'm a knowledge worker who spent years figuring out how to work more effectively — through deep work, productivity systems, and more recently, AI tools that actually make a difference.
I built this course because I couldn't find one that matched how I think about AI: practical, grounded, and focused on thinking quality rather than output volume. Everything in this course is something I use in my own work.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“Finally, an AI course that doesn't treat you like an idiot or try to sell you on replacing your brain with ChatGPT.”
James R.
Product Manager
“I went from dabbling with AI to having a system I actually use every day. The thinking partner module alone was worth it.”
