This post is not about ICM, it's about learning the AI systems you are using in the ICM space. If you are new to ICM and you are looking to learn the structure and how to apply it, please see the posts below: (They will serve you well) 1️⃣Jakes Van Clief's Welcome: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/welcome-to-clief-notes-heres-where-to-start-2?p=f8f85a09 2️⃣Mira Bradsaw's collection of getting started: https://www.skool.com/cliefnotes/clief-notes-gems-for-starting-in-icm?p=0385cbf9 |---------------------------------Let's Begin---------------------------------------| 👇 📝Note: This post is not for people already working in the space, it's not for people who understand AI, it's for the people who are sitting in silence, watching the rest of us do those things. 🚦So, let's get started with real talk about what AI is here. A lot of smart people are quietly carrying around one perceived embarrassing question, what actually IS this "AI" thing everyone keeps talking about? If that is you, drop the embarrassment right now. You are not behind; we are all on the frontier of this thing called AI. The word AI has been stretched to mean everything and nothing, and there are many reasons for it, I will name the three reasons I see that create the most fog: 1️⃣People rushing to break into AI before they get it. 2️⃣People holding one piece of the puzzle like it is the whole thing, then screaming "I'm right!". 3️⃣People who just want to sell you something. If you notice a pattern, so did I and it's not the AI, it's the people pushing it! None of them are trying to make YOU capable. And that is why I love @Jake Van Clief and his team for creating a community which actually is! Today I start a journey to help remove the fog. 👇 The one-sentence version: AI is software that "LEARNED" to spot patterns from a huge pile of examples and uses them to make a good guess about something new. 💡

Built out my master project structure and a bunch of markdown templates yesterday, archived the whole thing as a back up template and today I'm working on the real thing! All while creating slide decks, working on the website and writing a business plan and setting up my 11labs voice agent.

Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.
