Question
How to learn AI from zero?
Direct answer
To learn AI from zero in 2026, start by using ChatGPT or Claude daily for 7 days, take a fundamentals course (ChatGPT Advanced Prompts or equivalent) and pick one niche applied to your job. Practice with real cases, not textbook exercises. In 30 days you'll have basic mastery; in 90, advanced use. The key is daily application, not theory hoarding.
How we think about it
- Using AI daily matters more than reading theory
- A fundamentals course 10x's the learning curve
- Real cases beat textbook exercises
- 30 days = base; 90 days = applied mastery
