Question 1

Is this course really free? What's the catch?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 100% free. No signup, no email capture, no paywall, no "premium tier." Every lesson is available right now. The catch? There isn't one. This was built because the AI career conversation is dominated by hype and fear-mongering. Tech professionals deserve practical, honest guidance — not another $497 course selling anxiety.

Question 2

Who is this course for?

Accepted Answer

Any tech professional whose job touches software, data, infrastructure, security, product, design, marketing, project management, or business development. That includes frontend developers, backend engineers, DevOps/SRE, data scientists, ML engineers, QA, DBAs, technical writers, engineering managers, CTOs, TPMs, UX designers, marketers, project managers, BD professionals — 60+ specific roles. We also cover 6 experience tiers, from junior (1-3 years) to 30+ year industry veterans.

Question 3

I'm not a software engineer. Is this relevant to me?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. While the course started with software engineering, it now covers UI/UX designers, digital marketers, SEO specialists, project managers, scrum masters, business development managers, product managers, technical writers, solutions consultants, and more. Part 4 has dedicated modules for each of these roles with specific tools, workflows, and career strategies.

Question 4

How long does the course take?

Accepted Answer

Each lesson is 5-8 minutes of reading. There are 240+ lessons organized into 6 parts. You don't need to do them all — use the "Area of Expertise" picker to filter to your role, and start with the parts most relevant to you. Most people find value within the first 30 minutes.

Question 5

I'm extremely short on time. Where should I start?

Accepted Answer

Go straight to Part 4: "Your Role." It has dedicated modules for 32 different roles — frontend, backend, DevOps, data science, security, UX design, marketing, project management, and more. Each module is 5 focused lessons written specifically for your job. It covers what AI changes about your role, the tools that matter, and concrete actions to take this week. If you only have 30 minutes, those 5 lessons will give you the most value per minute of any section in the course.

Question 6

Is the content up to date? AI moves fast.

Accepted Answer

The course reflects the AI landscape as of February 2026, including tools like Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Google Stitch, Pencil, and the latest agent frameworks. We reference real tools at their current capabilities — not demos or vaporware. Content was verified through a Chain-of-Verification process for factual accuracy.

Question 7

Will AI really take my job?

Accepted Answer

Short answer: probably not directly. Longer answer: AI replaces tasks, not people. What actually happened in 2024-2025 is that fewer developers using AI replaced more developers without AI. The professionals at risk are those doing pure execution work (writing boilerplate, manual testing, template copywriting) without adding strategic judgment. This course teaches you how to be the person who uses AI, not the person who gets replaced by someone who does.

Question 8

Do I need to know how to code to benefit from this course?

Accepted Answer

No. Parts 1, 2, 3, and 6 are relevant to all tech professionals regardless of coding background. Part 4 has dedicated non-coding modules for roles like UX design, marketing, project management, and business development. Part 5 (Build With AI) is more technical, but even there the concepts (RAG patterns, prompt management, AI UX) are explained in plain English.

Question 9

What makes this different from other AI courses?

Accepted Answer

Three things. First, it's role-specific: not generic "learn AI" advice, but concrete guidance for YOUR job. Second, it's honest: we tell you what AI is bad at, which tools are overhyped, and when NOT to use AI. No vendor sponsorships, no affiliate links. Third, it's practical: every lesson ends with "Do This Next" — specific actions you can take this week, not abstract theory.

Question 10

Do I need to install anything or create an account?

Accepted Answer

No account needed. Just open the course and start reading. Your progress is saved locally in your browser (localStorage) — no server, no tracking. Some lessons suggest trying specific tools (Cursor, Claude, etc.), but that's optional and at your own pace.

Question 11

Can I share this with my team?

Accepted Answer

Please do. Every lesson has its own URL for easy sharing. If you're a manager, the course is a great resource for team discussions about AI adoption. The "Experience Gameplan" (Part 3) and role-specific modules (Part 4) are particularly useful for team-wide conversations.

Question 12

I have 20+ years of experience. Is this too basic for me?

Accepted Answer

No. Part 3 has dedicated sections for "Strategic Leader (15-20 years)," "Industry Sage (20-30 years)," and "Living Library (30+ years)." These cover topics like AI strategy at the executive level, board-level AI literacy, talent strategy, mentoring the next generation, and positioning your experience as a competitive advantage. Your decades of context are your moat — this course helps you leverage it.

Question 13

I'm a junior developer (1-3 years). Am I going to be replaced?

Accepted Answer

The fear is understandable, but overblown. Part 3 has a dedicated "Junior (1-3 years)" track that covers how to learn faster with AI, pick the right specialization, build a portfolio that stands out, and navigate your first AI-related layoff scare. Junior developers who embrace AI tools become mid-level faster. That's the path this course maps out.

Question 14

How is the course structured?

Accepted Answer

Six parts: Part 1 (Wake-Up Call) covers what AI can and can't do. Part 2 (New Playbook) teaches AI-augmented workflows and unfireable skills. Part 3 (Experience Gameplan) gives tier-specific strategies. Part 4 (Your Role) has deep dives for 32 role modules. Part 5 (Build With AI) covers shipping AI features. Part 6 (Career Moves) handles job market, personal branding, and positioning. Each lesson is standalone — you can jump to whatever's most relevant.

Question 15

What tools does the course cover?

Accepted Answer

We cover the major AI tools as of 2026: Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude Code, Devin, Google Stitch, Pencil (pencil.dev), v0, and many domain-specific tools for DevOps, data engineering, security, and more. We give honest assessments — what works, what's overhyped, and when to use each tool.

Question 16

Is there a certificate?

Accepted Answer

No. Certificates don't get you hired; skills and proof of work do. Part 6 teaches you how to demonstrate your AI capabilities through portfolio projects, LinkedIn presence, building in public, and interview preparation — which are far more effective than any certificate.
