Level select
New level. Same player.
Every decade changed the controls. Gen X picked up each new set, usually without a manual, and kept playing.
-
Level 11970s
Three channels and a rotary phone
You were a latchkey kid before there was a word for it. Saturday cartoons, then out the door until the streetlights came on.
-
Level 21980s
Quarters, mixtapes and a beige computer
The arcade, the boombox and the first computer in the house. You learned to load a game from a cassette and called it fun.
-
Level 31990s
Dial-up and a first real job
A modem screeched and you had an email address. Soon every desk had a computer, and you were the person who knew where the power button was.
-
Level 42000s
Y2K came and went
The world kept running. The reorgs, the dot-com crash and the shelf of burned CDs were harder to survive.
-
Level 52010s
Everything went into your pocket
Smartphones, the cloud, Slack and video calls. A new tool every year, learned between meetings.
-
Level 6Now
AI
New controls again. Your decades of judgment are the one thing the software cannot supply. Same drill as always: learn it, then teach the kids.
AI is becoming a more important part of our work.
You have judgment
AI has no sense of what good looks like. You have decades of it. You supply the taste and it supplies the speed.
You are short on time
Between work, family and everything else, you need steps you can follow in ten minutes. A 40-hour course will not happen.
You are tired of hype
Every guru promises a revolution. We offer boring, repeatable workflows that save hours.
What is inside
Playbooks
12 step-by-step guides with copy-and-paste prompts: career, meetings, research, writing, safety and small business.
AI Coach
Ask a question about your own situation and get a practical answer, with the exact prompt to use. Members only.
Weekly brief
One workflow, one prompt, one ten-minute experiment. New every week, arrives in your inbox.
A taste of what is inside
The 5-part prompt that turns “meh” into “send.”
Role, task, context, format, constraints. It is the formula from the free playbook, and it works in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini.
Browse the playbooksYou are an experienced account manager. Write a follow-up email to a client who has not replied to our proposal in 10 days. Context: price was their concern; we can offer a payment plan. Format: under 120 words, one clear question at the end. Constraints: friendly, not pushy, no "just checking in".
Take five
Quarters not required.
You spent a good part of 1983 at the arcade. The machines are back, free, and nobody is waiting behind you. Pick a game, take five minutes, then get back to learning AI.
- Three games: Hype Invaders, Space Rocks and Guardian
- Keyboard or touch screen, nothing to install
- Sound stays off until you turn it on
Scores stay in your browser. We never see them.
The arcade needs JavaScript.

Questions
Do I need to be technical?
No. If you can write an email you can do everything here. We use plain language and copy-and-paste prompts.
Which AI tool do I need?
Any of the big ones. The playbooks work with the free versions of ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. We do not sell you a tool or take a cut from one.
Is this legit? Are you promising I will get rich or get hired?
No. We do not promise income or jobs. We teach practical skills and you decide how to use them. There is a refund window if it is not useful to you.
Is my data private?
Coach conversations are stored so it can remember context, and you can clear them any time from your account. Do not paste confidential employer or customer information into any AI tool unless your organization allows it. See the privacy policy.
How do I cancel?
Open your account, click Manage billing, and cancel. You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.
Why Gen X?
Because most AI teaching is aimed at students or engineers. You are neither, and you already know what good work looks like.
