AI is changing the landscape of the internet, but the barrier to entry for some of these early access tools is pretty high. I want to have a conversation about how to use them, the different types of LLMs out there, their potential, and how they will redefine the creative economy in the future.

This course is for first time parents or curious humans that are thinking about how to juggle a newborn baby and being a creative person.

There’s a lot of different courses out there on how to deal with the newborn stage, but none that really spoke to the creative type that (1) is open to doing things differently but (2) still needs space/time for their work.

This course is a consolidation of many different perspectives so that you know all your options and pick the one best for YOU.
