Hello I’m a few days old here and all I wanted to do right now was learn as much as possible but ever since I decided to change my life, I would like to help our troubled youth so that they don’t waste their life away like I did. I would like to create something with AI that can help me reach out to young people that are heading in the wrong direction and try to help them but really try to help them because I went through some things that have left some of the worst prisoners shocked when I told my story and I don’t think no kid should ever have to live through trauma like that.. i feel like im still hear after all that because im supposed to help out youth. I’m still a long way but I would love some tips if anyone’s got any.. thank you guys

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. Aside from the holidays, I have spent the last 30 days in full business recovery mode following a disastrous workspace migration in ChatGPT on November 30th. I didn’t want to come back until I had something positive to report. Over the summer, before joining the AI Advantage I launched my startup using a ChatGPT Plus account tied to my personal email. As a (now) professional founder, I eventually realized it was necessary to separate my personal data from my business for IP protection, liability, and future HIPAA compliance with the app I’m building. When I started my ChatGPT account I hadn’t even thought about starting a company yet. Everything was mixed up. All my personal topics and my business building topics were in one account. Which is not a good thing. I knew enough to upgrade to a ChatGPT plus account when I started iterating business ideas, because I did not want them being trained on any of open AI models. I did everything by the book. I followed the documentation and even used ChatGPT to build a migration checklist. What happened next took my business out at the knees. ChatGPT wiped out every last bit of my data. Their support was nonexistent—no apology, no refund, and no path to recovery. $632.00 spent for a two year Business Workspace and nothing to show for it, everything gone. While my "founder discipline" meant I had backed up my core IP and design docs locally, I lost months of context and chat logs that served as the backbone of my cognitive scaffolding system. It was a disaster of epic proportions. I’ll admit it: I cried. Sobbed actually. I’m normally not a crier, but I had worked so damn hard for several months building something that I know is going to help people. I refused to let it be the end. I have spent December reconstituting my operations from the ground up, but I didn't go back to what broke. After learning that this has happened to dozens, if not hundreds of other founders and businesses, I migrated my entire company to Google Business Workspace (Enterprise Standard) and Gemini. The difference in professional stability and support has been night and day. Because of this move, I’ve recovered enough momentum to stay on track for our first product launch this January.

🧠 AI Is Teaching Me to Think Differently 🧠 One thing I’ve been noticing lately is how AI isn’t just helping me do things faster it’s helping me learn in a completely new way. Instead of waiting for the “perfect moment” to start something, I can experiment in real time, iterate quickly, and learn by doing. It’s made me more curious, more consistent, and honestly more confident in trying things I would’ve overthought before. Whether it’s drafting ideas, exploring new skills, translating tone across languages, or breaking down complex concepts, AI has become this flexible partner that adapts to whatever I’m working on. It’s like having a creative sounding board that never gets tired of brainstorming. I’m really enjoying this shift toward learning in public sharing experiments, refining workflows, and seeing how others are using AI in ways I never would’ve imagined. I’d love to hear from the community: What’s something AI has helped you learn or explore that you might not have tackled otherwise?
