Stop thinking about AI as a threat. Start seeing it as your multiplier. Within the next 24 hours:
1. Choose your domain: Where will you specialize? 2. Run one experiment: Use AI to solve a real problem 3. Share one insight: Post about your AI discovery 4. Make one connection: Reach out to someone using AI successfully 5. Commit to mastery: Block 2 hours daily for AI learning
The difference between those replaced by AI and those empowered by it isn't technical skill—it's the willingness to become fluent in the new language of work.
AI needs whisperers. The question is: Will you answer the call?
