The AI workshop was a success!
AI workshop
join cohort #2
I haven’t written here in a while, so here’s an update!
I’m thrilled to share that the AI workshop I organized at the end of July was a success! The enthusiasm and engagement from participants exceeded my expectations, and the feedback has been incredibly positive.
The workshop brought together developers, solopreneurs, and tech enthusiasts who were eager to understand how AI can transform their work and projects.
The participants came with diverse backgrounds but shared a common goal: learning how to practically apply AI in their daily workflows.
We focused on hands-on, real-world applications rather than theoretical concepts. Participants left with first-hand knowledge of how AI can help in a software development environment.
By the end of the workshop, participants were:
- Building AI-powered features from scratch
- Understanding prompt engineering best practices
- Implementing AI workflows in their existing projects
- Making informed decisions about when and how to use AI tools
- A clear understanding of AI’s current capabilities and limitations
- Confidence to experiment with AI in their own projects
The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Participants appreciated the practical approach, the hands-on exercises, and the focus on real-world applications.
This was the first cohort of this brand new course I labeled “AI workshop”.
I bet on Claude Code as the AI tool of choice, and the bet was well placed, as Claude Code proved to be a great tool for us, but also for everyone else, because all I hear on X is praises for it. Even now that GPT-5 is out, Claude models are top notch models for programming.
Due to the success of the July workshop and numerous requests for another session, I’m excited to announce that the next AI workshop cohort will start in September!
The July workshop confirmed what I suspected: there’s a huge appetite for practical, no-nonsense AI education. Developers and entrepreneurs want to understand how to leverage AI effectively, not just follow the latest hype.
I’m excited to continue building this community of AI-curious professionals and help more people discover how AI can enhance their work and projects.
The September cohort will build on everything we learned in July, incorporating participant feedback and the latest developments in AI tooling. It’s going to be even better!
It will be organized as the first one, with lessons and practical tips, followed by a case study of using AI to build a Web Application from scratch, using Claude Code.
This workshop is perfect for:
- Developers looking to integrate AI into their applications
- Entrepreneurs wanting to understand AI’s business potential
- Tech professionals curious about practical AI implementation
- Anyone interested in staying current with AI development trends
The September cohort will follow the same successful format as July:
- Text-based lessons with plenty of hands-on practice
- Practical exercises you can apply immediately on your own
- Support and community through Discord
If you’re interested in joining the September AI workshop cohort, stay tuned for registration details. Given the success of the July session, I expect spots to fill up quickly. Spots will be limited.
