Welcome to the How to Succeed with AI free course.
I’m Dave Waring, your instructor and the co-creator of BrainDrive.ai.
This course is 5 lessons and is designed to take anyone from knowing nothing about AI, to being able to leverage the power of AI in any aspect of your life that you would like to improve.
At the end of this course you will be up and running with your own AI system.
You will have a proven process for leveraging the power of AI to help you define and reach your goals in any area of your life. This includes personal areas, such as improving your relationships or health, as well as professional areas, like landing a new job or completing an ambitious project.
Your AI system will remember what you tell it, so the more you use it the better it gets to know you, and the more helpful it becomes. And you will be the owner of that system, so that power compounds for you.
If that weren’t enough, we are going to do this all in less than 30 minutes, and in a format that anyone can follow, regardless of technical experience.
What You’ll Learn
Lesson 1 — AI Basics: You’ll learn the AI basics you need to understand (and none of the stuff you don’t) in 5 minutes or less. After this lesson you’ll know more about AI than 95% of people I talk to.
Lesson 2 — Your Memory: You’ll learn why the most important thing in AI is not the AI model, but the memory of the AI system you use. You’ll learn why this is the case, and why it’s important that you own Your Memory.
Lesson 3 — Own Your AI System: You’ll learn how anyone can own their Personal AI System, just like anyone can own a personal computer. And how you can do so today, regardless of technical ability. At the end of this lesson you’ll be the proud owner of your own AI system. An AI system that works for you and not some Big Tech company.
Lesson 4 — The Process in Action: You’ll learn a proven process for partnering with your AI system to define and reach your goals. We’ll walk through it live in BrainDrive so you can see exactly how it works — from the first message to a finished spec and plan.
Lesson 5 — The Future: I’ll show you where AI is heading — AI agents that act on your behalf, your AI system as an economic asset, and the agent economy — and why what you just built matters more than you think.
What You’ll Have When You’re Done
I’m going to use BrainDrive, the Personal AI System my co-creator and I built, to show this. But you do not have to use BrainDrive to benefit from this course. The same concepts I cover here are relevant to any AI system. And the process I outline for partnering with AI to define and reach your goals works with any AI system as well.
Before We Get Started
I know there is a lot of fear and uncertainty out there right now about AI.
The vast majority of the headlines I see about AI are negative. So it’s understandable why you might be concerned about AI taking jobs, and resulting in a world where the individual is less empowered.
But I’m here to tell you that the exact opposite can actually be true.
AI can result in a world where the individual is more empowered than ever. Where we are freed up to do the things that we actually love doing, instead of being stuck in the drudgery of rote work that most people hate.
AI makes the expertise that was previously available only to the wealthiest in society — personal coaches, financial advisors, executive assistants — available to everyone. And at a price almost anyone can afford.
But you have to know how to partner with it to unlock this expertise for yourself. Once you know how, you can compound that power, so every leap forward in AI capability leaps your capability forward as well.
This is how you ride the AI wave. And my promise to you is that by the end of this course, you’ll have everything you need to do exactly that — both today and into the AI-powered future.
Are you excited? Me too. I’ll see you in Lesson 1!
