Is this you?<ul><li>Chatting endlessly with an “AI intern” instead of designing the context with clear principles.</li><li>Blaming “hallucinations” when the real issue is poor orchestration.</li><li>Trying to run an entire project from a single, overloaded chat window.</li><li>Treating AI like witchcraft and prompt spells instead of engineering.</li></ul>AI gets better every day. But when it’s time to ship something serious, you don’t yet have a reliable way to make AI show up for you.The problem isn’t AI. It’s how you’re using it. This course exists for that exact gap.AI is a new computing paradigm. To use it well, you have to:<ul><li>Unlearn old patterns</li><li>Install new mindsets and habits</li><li>Build a meta-learning system that can carry your career for the next 20 years</li></ul>That's hard, and we take it seriously. This course is designed to teach you how to fish. On top of lessons and projects, we built two unique tools:<ol><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://youtu.be/dXjcy6XSN_Y">A build platform</a> that consolidates key APIs and lets you deploy your projects with one command—so you can build fast, not fight boilerplate.</li><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.superlinear.academy/c/share-your-projects/">A lifetime community</a> where you can share projects, ask questions, and get unstuck long after the course ends.</li></ol>The end of our course is the beginning of your learning, and we will be with you.

You already use AI. You probably think it is going well.When researchers measured experienced professionals using AI on real tasks, they were 19% slower. They believed they were 20% faster. (METR, 2025)"I thought I was already using AI well. Turns out I was just using it often." — Wole, Product DesignerThe gap is not your skills. It is what AI knows about your work before you start. Your projects, priorities, stakeholders, what "good" looks like. Without that, every session starts from zero.This course builds two things. First: a system that handles the recurring work and frees up roughly half a day a week. Second: AI advisors modeled on your real stakeholders that challenge your documents, prepare you for meetings, and catch what you missed."A system I use every single day. One that has increased the quality of my work immensely." — Renata, Product OwnerLimited to 20 students. Personal feedback on every submission.

A system that handles your busy work and sharpens the work only you can do.

Your AI Already Knows Your Work

Automate the Work That Drains Your Week

AI Advisors That Challenge Your Thinking

Output That Is Visibly Better

A System That Compounds

No Coding Required

You already use ChatGPT, Claude, or similar tools regularly. Not just tried once. You have AI habits you want to build on.

Use AI (like ChatGPT or Cursor) regularly (not just tried once)

You need to install tools like Claude Code or Cursor. Some company laptops block this. If you are unsure, check with your IT team.

Can install software 

You will see code you did not write. AI writes it. You describe what you want in plain English. We walk you through every step.

Willing to try things that feel unfamiliar at first

You get decent output but re-explain context every session. You want AI that knows your work and challenges your thinking.

PMs, designers, engineers, data professionals. The title matters less than the work: multiple projects, documents, decisions across teams.

You want to walk into meetings having already stress-tested your arguments. You want documents that survive the first round of review.

Stop dabbling. Learn to wield AI and produce high quality output that you are proud of.

AI won’t replace you. But someone highly skilled at using AI will.This course builds the skills that work with any tool, now and in the future.Right now, most professionals treat AI like a novelty: vague prompts, inconsistent output, and endless rewrites. The result is either low-quality work, or so much tweaking that any time savings disappear.The people pulling ahead aren’t using secret tools. They’ve learned a simple truth:The “A” in AI stands for artificial. The quality of the output is directly tied to the real intelligence of the input.Over 30 days, you’ll develop practical AI fluency through short daily exercises and live coaching. Proficient AI operators consistently save 6–10 hours per week through increased skill and repeatable processes.Enough to reclaim your Fridays if you want. More importantly, you’ll build habits that compound, so your speed and leverage continue to increase long after the course ends.You’ll also learn how to measure your time savings, so you inherently know whether AI makes "cents".Why this "Apprenticeship" is different. • Build daily AI habits (20 min a day M-F) • Weekly Show and Tell accountability • Teaches skills that transfers across all AI tools

Don’t get replaced by AI. Leverage it to become irreplaceable.

Most professionals feel pressure to “use AI,” but end up stuck in shallow prompting, tool overload, and unreliable results. The real problem isn’t access to AI—it’s knowing how to apply it meaningfully to your actual work.This course shows you how to move from curiosity to execution. In the course, You’ll actually utilize AI to build:•⁠ ⁠slide decks and spreadsheets from rough notes •⁠ ⁠landing pages and small apps (without coding) •⁠ ⁠image generation and brand visuals •⁠ ⁠short videos for social media •⁠ ⁠AI agents that handle repetitive work for youYou won’t just learn tools; you’ll leave with systems already running in your work.

Learn how to use AI in a practical, grounded way - not hype, not theory.
