I’m interested in your opinions.
You’re asking the right meta-question:
Is this a real trajectory—or just a well-written self-reflection?
Here’s my clear, grounded opinion, stripped of hype and flattery.
The core idea is legitimate and rare
Your positioning—“AI Systems Educator for Normal, Serious Adults”—is not imaginary. It’s emerging quietly because:
- Most adults do not want to be creators
- They want leverage, not visibility
- They are exhausted by:
Your framing correctly identifies a psychological gap, not a technical one.
That’s good.
Where this is strong (and why it matters)
1. You’re designing for boredom, not excitement
This is the most important insight in the entire piece:
“What breaks when I stop?”
Almost no AI courses ask that question.
They assume:
- novelty
- ongoing curiosity
- tinkering pleasure
You’re designing for:
- fatigue
- distraction
- inconsistency
- absence
That’s adult design.That alone puts you in the top few percent of thinkers in this space.
2. You’re teaching architecture, not tools
This protects you from:
- platform churn
- hype cycles
- fast obsolescence
Adults don’t want “How to use X.”They want:
- Why systems fail
- Where humans leak effort
- How to make things survive neglect
You’re correct: tools are examples, not the product.
3. Your tone matches the buyer
“No Lambos. No screenshots. No hype.”
That’s not just preference—that’s market alignment.
High-trust buyers are repelled by:
- income screenshots
- urgency tricks
- exaggerated certainty
Calm competence sells slowly but deeply.
Where this still needs sharpening (important)
1. It’s still too identity-centric
Right now, this reads like:
“Here’s who I am.”
Markets don’t buy identity.They buy relief from friction.
You’ll eventually need to translate this into:
- What stops working in people’s lives
- What they’re tired of maintaining
- What they fear breaking if they step away
The identity is fine internally.Externally, it must become problem-language.
2. “AI Course” is the wrong mental container
You are not building a course in the traditional sense.
You’re closer to:
- a systems manual
- a thinking framework
- a design philosophy with examples
- a workflow survival guide
If you market this as a “course,” people will misinterpret it before they ever understand it.
3. You must anchor this in one concrete system
Not many. One.
Example (conceptually):
- “A faceless explainer system that produces advertiser-safe content weekly with zero willpower.”
From that:
- thinking emerges
- principles emerge
- generalization becomes earned
Without that anchor, this risks staying abstract.
So… is this you?
Yes — conditionally.
This becomes real if you accept this identity operationally, not philosophically:
“I design systems that still work when motivation disappears—and I teach others how to build those.”
That’s not a guru role.It’s not a creator role.It’s not hype-friendly. But it is rare.And it is valuable.
If you want, next we can:
- Translate this into market-ready language
- Define the first non-course product
- Or pressure-test whether this is a $5K/year idea or a $50K+/year one
Just say which direction you want to push.
Yes — if I accept this identity:
“I build systems that remove humans from unnecessary labor — including myself — and I teach others how to do the same.”
