It’s been a while, almost a year honestly, and I just felt like sharing something that’s been on my mind.
Success doesn’t show up in a day or a month. It takes years of showing up, failing, learning, and trying again. I was scrolling Instagram and saw a Philip AI video, and for some reason it pulled me back here.
Here’s my honest advice for anyone getting into this space
Learn as much as you can about AI is powerful, like a gold mine, but only if you bring your own creativity into it. Depending on AI for everything will make your thinking dull. I’ve been using AI tools heavily for a long time, so I’m speaking from experience.
Also, most people think AI is just ChatGPT or DeepSeek, but there’s a huge world out there. Here are some tools and areas that can genuinely help you in whatever you’re trying to build
Chatbots and LLMs:•
ChatGPT• Kimi• Chat.zai (really good for coding)• Ernie by Baidu
Automation:•
n8n (one of the best)You can even self-host it. The setup is simple:
AI video tools:• Wan 2.2• Sora• InVideo• Opus (they recently launched an agent that edits videos automatically, almost like a real editor)
Other useful platforms:• Vibecode• Roket• Base44• Loveable• Boltand plenty more.
And one last thing I’ve learned: affiliate marketing has become really saturated. I’m not trying to discourage anyone, but I’ve been watching this field for 2 years. It can work, yes, but you need real consistency and usually a large audience like Philip has. It’s definitely not a “get rich in a day” path.
I’m not saying it’s impossible. I’m saying it’s crowded, and if you want something bigger, focus on building something original.
That’s what actually takes you somewhere in long run
