The best problem solvers I know don't actually solve problems. They redefine them until they're easy. Spent the weekend reading "Are Your Lights On?" by Weinberg & Gause. It's a problem-solving book from the 80s. Everything in it applies to building AI products today. // FROM THE BOOK "We can never be sure we have a correct definition. Even after the problem is solved." This broke my brain a bit. Then I realized it's liberating. // REAL EXAMPLE Client comes to me: "Our brand is inconsistent." Old me would: • Audit everything • Build massive design system • Spend months "fixing" it Now I ask: • WHO perceives inconsistency? • WHAT does inconsistent mean to them? • WHEN does it matter? Often discover: • Sales team needs deck templates (solved in 1 day) • Product team needs component library (solved in 1 week) • "Inconsistency" = different people solving different needs // THE TRAP Book calls it "taking their solution method for a problem definition." Client: "We need a brand guidelines document." Me (old): "Okay, here's 50 pages." Me (now): "What problem does the document solve?" Often discover they don't actually know. // THE SHIFT Stop being a problem solver. Become a problem definer. // THE 3X RULE "If you can't think of at least 3 things that might be wrong with your understanding of the problem, you don't understand the problem." I use this constantly. Can't think of 3 reasons a user would click that button? You don't understand the user yet. Can't think of 3 ways your "solution" creates new problems? You don't understand the system yet. // PRACTICAL Next time you're stuck: List 3 ways you're wrong about: • The problem • The solution • The user • The constraints • The value Not 1. 3. First 2 are obvious. Third breaks the pattern. That's where insight lives.

Hey guys, my name's Chuks. I am a graphic designer with a background in print. However, I'm moving towards digital design, brand design, and brand identity. I'm starting to set up my own agency using AI, preferably. I'm looking to connect with as many people as possible within this space. It looks like a very active space, and I love the work that you're doing. I'm currently based in the south of England with the hope of maybe relocating to Europe somewhere. I want to be able to work remotely.

Hey friends, We’re helping a few agencies get more clients using calls and AI tools. Both campaigns are working really well. If you want to see how it works, just comment INFO or send me a DM.

Hey everyone, Just dropped a new video. Hit 300 subscribers on Youtube as well! Make sure you subscribe :) Here's what I've been working on: 🛠️ Tools: • Claude Code - Main AI code editor. Built landing pages, learned databases and APIs. Gets expensive but worth it. • Local Forge - 3 AI agents at once. Lightning fast for landing pages. Game changer. • bolt.new - Built dashboard UI, chat UI, status page. Huge improvements since last month. • Whop Apps - Built my first Whop app this weekend. It's live. Might do a tutorial. • Manus AI - Built a Proposal Generator (80% done) with their trillion token giveaway. 📁 Work: • Made concept redesigns for real companies with weak landing pages • Reached out directly, got a few replies back • All built with Claude Code and Local Forge 📱 Social Media: • LinkedIn gets way better engagement than X for me • Made a Contra account, good metrics so far • Still figuring out how to build an audience on X 🎓 AI Design Club: • Turned it free • 440+ members now • Planning live streams and app builds soon Questions: 1.What AI tools are you using? 2.LinkedIn or X - which works better for you? 3.Should I make a Whop app tutorial? Always looking for partnerships. Let's connect. – Drewskii
