Why this topic matters

Compute used to be the superpower only accessible through programming or GUIs. Now it's accessible through chats. Instead of being users who passively accept existing apps, we can now become builders who actively create solutions to aid our work. This course explains how this fundamental change in mindset can make us more efficient, flexible, and productive.
