Why it matters
The biggest reason people “never got into AI” is that the tool wasn’t one tap away. We fix that today. Friction is the enemy of habit — so we remove it before it can stop you.
Learn
Every major assistant has the same basic layout: a box where you type, a conversation thread above it, and a sidebar listing your past chats. That’s 90% of what you need. The rest you’ll discover as you go.
Do this
- Create your free account on your chosen assistant.
- Install the mobile app and (if available) add a shortcut so it’s reachable in two taps. Friction is the enemy of habit.
- Find these four things in the interface and note where they are: the message box, the “new chat” button, your chat history, and the settings menu.
- Send this as your very first message:

Don’t spend money yet. The free tier is more than enough for everything in this course. Upgrade only once you know what you’d be paying for.
