GK helps you build with AI on first principles

GK (Gayathri Keerthana) is an AI product builder and ex-Amazon Senior PM (ML) who teaches product folks to build with AI from first principles. Her Lenny-featured Lightning Lesson drew 15,700+ sign-ups; an attendee of all 21 in the series called it the best.

At 19 she founded an award-winning non-profit in rural India, then moved through SaaS marketing, an ESADE MBA and Amazon, where she ran a 300-person robotics site before leading ML models for a $7.2B business. She adapts Amazon's mechanisms for AI: Working Backwards specs, Deep Dive agents and Bar Raiser evals.

Students say she makes technical ideas easy to follow, and many have used her methods to grow their careers. She runs an AI consultancy and a coffee brand solo with AI, and teaches that whoever owns the spec owns the product.

It's not everybody skill to narrate and weave a relatable story that can be easily digestible by your audience for a topic which you think is complex to understand. Gk's unique trait is this unique skill to make her audience understand the concept which is complex in a language anyone can understand. Thanks GK for delivering this topic

GK is a great teacher: so much practical guidance was packed into this short workshop! Nearly the entire class was hands-on, building something real but with enough room to customize it. This approach is fairly different than a lot of similarly positioned courses and I found it the best means to truly learn the material.

The 'From Vibe Coding to Spec Engineering' class exceeded my expectations, and you don't need to be technical to get real value out of it. The hands-on exercises kept me engaged throughout the session. I especially appreciated learning a concrete framework for turning vibe-coded ideas into clear specs an engineering team can actually build from. I'd highly recommend this class to anyone looking to bridge the gap between rough ideas and real engineering work.
