Meet Robert
Robert has spent more than ten years teaching technology, and the skill he has worked hardest at is explaining a complex system in plain words — the kind that make sense the first time. Sessions are not a firehose of information; they are built around the few tools that will genuinely speed your work up. The aim is that you finish with something you can use on Thursday morning, not a pile of notes.
- Over ten years teaching technology.
- Training is one-on-one, in your own home or office.

What the training covers
Sessions are shaped around what you need. The course itself has three levels, from beginner basics to the cutting edge. Topics include:
- The AI tools that exist right now — what ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Grok are each good at, and which one actually suits the way you work.
- Prompts that get a usable answer — how to ask for exactly what you want, instead of a vague question that buries you in filler, plus a few “secret phrases” and a trick that has AI write the prompt for you.
- Why AI “forgets” halfway through — the context window in plain terms, and when to start a fresh chat rather than fight it.
- Giving AI a persona and rules — tell it to answer as an accountant, an artist or a travel agent, hold it to the limits you set, and push back bluntly when it falls short.
- Deep Research with NotebookLM — upload your own PDFs and web pages so the AI answers only from sources you trust, then turn them into a mind map, a slide deck, a report or a podcast-style audio discussion.
- Catching made-up answers — why AI invents facts that sound convincing, and the habit of checking anything that matters.
- Paying for AI without overpaying — which subscription is worth it for you, how to audit the ones you are already on, and the pay-as-you-go alternative to monthly plans.
- Privacy and AI memory — where your words go when you type them, what you should never share, and how to carry your own profile from one AI to the next.
- Answers out of your own paperwork — hand it a contract, a bill, a spreadsheet, or a photo of a form, and ask plain questions about it.
- Making and fixing pictures — generate a flyer with readable text on it, change the background or the weather in a photo, remove what doesn’t belong, or turn raw facts into an infographic.
- Letting AI do the clicking — agentic AI that opens websites, fills in forms, and works through a task while you get on with something else.
- Assistants that work while you sleep — always-on AI like Grok Bot, Gemini Spark, ChatGPT Dots and Meta’s Muse: which jobs to hand over, which to keep, and how much freedom to give them.
- AI on your own computer — download a private assistant once with LM Studio or Ollama, then use it with no subscription, no internet connection, and nothing leaving your machine.
- Building a website or a small app — describe what you want in plain English, watch it get built, and keep changing it as you go — or let a team of AI agents in Google Antigravity plan, build and test it while you review.
