New to AI? This is the shortest path from “what is this?” to “I’m using it weekly.”
Most “learn AI” advice tells you to read 50 articles. Don’t. Pick one tool, run one workflow, ship one thing. That’s it. Then come back for the next one.
Below is the order I’d send a friend through if they had 60 minutes and wanted to actually use AI by the end of the hour.
First — 5 min

Take the AI Amplified Quiz — 5 questions, 5 minutes — and we’ll tell you which level you’re at and which step below matters most for you right now.
