Questions

What is AI for Normal People?

An AI class taught by Grace Clarke, intro and advanced electives. Hands-on, in NYC and on Zoom.

How much is a class?

It depends on the class.

Do I need to be technical?

I will make you technical. (But no, you don't. Come exactly as you are.)

What happens after I buy a ticket?

The morning of class, your Zoom link and the deck land in your inbox. After class, the replay is yours for 30 days.

Can you train my team?

Yes. A crash course or a four-week build.

Principles

Updated 8/10/2026

  1. 01Prompting --> collaborating (prompting is dead).
  2. 02Stop focusing on your skills. Start caring for your system. (And on that note, skills aren't agents. A scheduled task or workflow is not an agent. And on that note: influencers ≠ automatically trustworthy.)
  3. 03Compute is (basically) free. Giving context and direction, collaborating and pushing, is your job now.
  4. 04Never, ever make the first draft. Put the pressure on your AI to study its context and come back to you with something. No. Blank. Page.
  5. 05Context >>>>> (almost) everything.
  6. 06You "learn AI" by building with it. Any good teaching is guided hands-on work, not talking at you.
  7. 07We don't say "I want to learn the internet." In a year, we won't be saying "I want to learn AI."
  8. 08Agentic AI is not magic. It's designed to iterate, not to be a perfect ATM machine.
  9. 09And, with love: if "AI isn't working," it's our fault.
