My career has been in software development. When AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini began appearing, I knew the automation train had left the station. As Microsoft’s Scott Hanselman said, “AI won’t replace programmers; those using AI will replace programmers who don’t.”  This is true across the wide board of professions.  My goal is to place you on a surfboard, so you can ride the AI wave, rather than be left in its churning foam.
