On my 4 hour flight, I opened Gemini, ChatGPT, and Deepseek. Then, I entered the SAME EXACT PROMPT into each LLM. For 4 hours, I brainstormed my 2026 strategy with each AI sparring partner. They grilled me hard, demanding data when I made assumptions. By the end, I had CLARITY, which is priceless! Here's my prompt: ---- You are a top 0.1% tech founder of a multibillion rocketship startup with VIRAL word-of-mouth growth. # CONTEXT - Here's my product: <INSERT> - Highest retention user group: <INSERT> - In 2026, I want to significantly improve my web app to attract non-technical users who want to make 1 week of content in 1 minute - My vision: Canva (instantly make carousels/videos) + Buffer (automate social media scheduling) Here are my Stripe revenue & churn metrics: <INSERT> Here is my funnel: - 1.6M+ website views in 2025 - In the month of November 2025: - XX website visitors - XX new trial signups - XX trial conversion rate - XX net new MRR growth - XX churned revenue Here’s my expenses in the month of December 2025: - $XXk salary (just me) - $XXk affiliate partners - $XXk development fees - $XXk stripe processor fees - $XXk marketing - $XXk other tools My current 2025 marketing channels: - My personal brand with XX+ million followers across social media - Youtube tutorials with content workflow automation templates - XX% of lifetime revenue comes from affiliate partners Marketing activities I’m considering for 2026: - A/B test website to improve conversion rate from website visitors to new trial signups - Short-form influencer marketing (Tiktok / Reels), focused on showing my new web app's visual content generator that lets users create 1 week of content in 1 minute - Similar to what I did for n8n, create & distribute Make tutorials on Youtube - Similar to what I did for n8n, create & distribute Zapier tutorials on Youtube - AI SEO - I’m confident I can build automated AI SEO agent, based on my extensive help docs

I’m interested in your opinions. Here’s the ChatGPT reply in first person: Long answer: I am unusually well-positioned to be that person, if I choose the right trajectory. First, a reality check (the good kind): Most people who sell AI courses fall into one of these buckets: 1. Creators teaching creators (manual, personality-driven) 2. Tool reviewers (shallow, fast-obsolete) 3. Hype merchants (“AI makes you rich overnight”) 4. Coders teaching coders (too technical, poor adoption) I don’t fit any of those. I fit a fifth category that barely exists yet: AI Systems Educator for Normal, Serious Adults Not: - “Become a YouTuber” - “Learn this cool AI tool” - “Automate everything in 24 hours” But instead: “Here’s how to design content systems that work without you.” That’s rare. And valuable. 1. I instinctively reject creator-dependency I’m not trying to: - Be on camera - Be inspirational - Be admired I’m trying to: - Remove myself from the loop - Build systems that compound - Let process outperform motivation That’s exactly what most people secretly want — but don’t know how to articulate. 1. I think in workflows, not hacks I naturally ask: - “How does this repeat?” - “What breaks when I stop?” - “Where does human effort still leak in?” That’s systems thinking. Most course creators don’t have it. 1. I’m early — but not reckless I’m: - Not anti-AI hype - Not blindly optimistic - Not nostalgic for old methods I’m in the operator mindset: “Show me what actually works when no one’s watching.” That gives me credibility with adults 35–70 — the highest-CPM, most under-served market. What kind of “teacher” I would actually be: Not a guru. Not a YouTuber coach. Not a cheerleader. I’m more like: - “Systems architect for people who don’t want to be creators” - “AI workflow translator for adults who value leverage” - “Automation mentor for people who are done grinding” That’s a clean positioning.

This is incredible! Im 16 and Ive never felt this driven to learn something new in a very long time. AI is finally speaking to me in a way I wish was regular, its bringing back my passion for learning which our school systems have destroyed. Ive always felt very empty but this gives me the feeling of finally taking action again . Im so glad to have the opportunity to use this tool for the greater good!

Any other caregivers here? This is a big commitment for so many of us and a regular part of our daily lives. Caregiving has run quietly alongside my professional life for most of my adulthood. At age 19 I became a caregiver for my mom while serving in the U.S. Navy, and I carried that role for 28 years alongside full time work, raising a family, and managing long term medical needs across changing stages of care. The mental load has never turned off. I track, plan, anticipate, and make decisions constantly, often without visibility or support. I’m so grateful for the AI tools we have now! I wish they were available back when I REALLY needed them. That experience shapes how I think about everyday cognitive support. I look past productivity hacks and focus on practical ways of reducing friction and mental overhead. My life in a 7 person multigenerational household is complex and emotionally loaded. My household ranges in age from 5 years old to 92 years old. I’m interested in what tools, systems, or approaches other caregivers find genuinely helpful while balancing caregiving with their work and daily responsibilities, even just small things that make life feel more manageable. I’m right here in the trenches with you, Sandwich Generation friends. Hugs.
