The Shortcut to AI Mastery
I have been very active with AI for more than a year now. I managed to do things thanks to AI that I would not have dreamt possible. Let me just enumerate some here:
- I rewrote my whole company website
- I created a script for my company with more than 2000 lines of code (I have no development background)
- I created tools for Liotes to make the workflow smoother and faster
- I created soundtracks which is a big surprise because I'm not at all musical
- I created images and movies. I even created an animated Manga film
- I also created an AI advisor for my company that helps me to analyse my website traffic and financial data and helps me define the next steps
AI is not only about the correct prompt
Well, in short, for me AI is a door opener that allows me to do things without needing to learn how to use the basic tools. However, the learning curve was steep. AI is not just about the correct prompt, it's about understanding how AI actually works.
Telling AI that it is a marketing specialist will just make it sound like that
If you tell AI that it should act as a marketing specialist, the AI won't know more about marketing, it will just sound like a specialist. Also this specialist will be for an American market mainly and it could create some issues if you apply his sayings on an European or Asian market.
I have reverse engineered best practices to work with AI
To understand AI, I actually made tons of mistakes and learned one error at a time. Little by little I built my toolbox and refined my way to work with AI. When I started to use Claude Code, I was totally surprised that what I had built through trial and error was actually what professionals were using as best practices... I had reversed engineered best practices for the work with AI. The advantage with my approach is that it's not based on theory and specific technical knowledge. I collected all my experiences and anecdotes and made a book out of it that I have published today.
The book I would have been happy to read a year ago
You guys on hive are the first ones to whom I present this book. I sell it on Gumroad and you are free to pay as much as you want for it. I needed to set a minimal price of 7 $ just to make sure that all the costs are covered and so that I make a small profit for each copy.
If you buy the book, I would be very grateful for a review. Make sure that you tell me if you made a review and you might get a little present ;-).
You can find the book under the following link: https://achim03.gumroad.com/l/yjzui
With @ph1102, I'm running the @liotes project.

Well, well, you're still into e-books. But do they actually work these days? 😎
I can't really say. I first wanted to create an online course but I look at the e-book as a way to test the market first. I don't expect to sell a lot but before going into something that requires much more work, I want to see if there is an interest at all...
Very cool that you were able to write a book about what you learned Achim.
I hope you sell a lot of them
I honestly don't have too high expectations but I started to write things down and quite quickly realized that this could help other people as well :-)
