Seriously, hats off to Jeff for going through the work of watching, learning and then summarising i.e. the lengthy work and putting it into a FREE video for us.
Hey I’m 12 years old and my dad was making me do research on Ai, I thought it was going to be boring but you made it interesting thanks for that.
Jeff, I see why you have a million followers… so digestible! Could you do a video for Boomers who are clueless about AI… and understanding how its applications across our daily lives might apply…. thanks and Ill keep following….

100% AGREE. AI is supposed to be easily accessed by the general population, but its jargons and how it works aren't fully understood by many. I came across this one AI (workbeaver AI) that lets you create automations and let it do tasks based on what you show and teach it through screen sharing, it then watches and takes over the tasks and runs the automations on your PC. No code platforms like this help a lot of non technical people like I used to be. I would feel so overwhelmed just by learning the jargons that come into AI.
Your ability to explain a complex topic into a more digestible content is a genius talent. As a teacher, Im taking notes.
Props to Jeff for watching, learning, and summarizing all that work into a FREE video for us.
One of very few YouTubers that you laugh and learn at the same time. Thank you Jeff!
For someone in his mid fifties this was very helpful. I have no problem using the tech I just don't have patience for the specific learning curve. You made it a bit easier. Thank you. Like given.
Absolutely spot on! Most beginners jump into AI without understanding the foundational concepts, which can lead to confusion. When I first started, I was completely overwhelmed by all the jargon and complex models. It’s like trying to tell a joke and realizing you’ve missed the punchline—awkward! I joined the Sense of Humor Improvement Program by Habit10x, and it taught me that clarity and timing are just as important in humor as they are in learning AI. Keep pushing through the basics; it’ll pay off in the long run!
I like your humor and relatability. Keep up the great work on your videos!
I'm a career tech writer in the software tech space. I appreciate your choices for depth of information, type of examples, and overall presentation style.
You make everything so interesting, I’m hooked!
Just to addon , for Jeff at min 3 mark, for the coursera on project management : good book to add on to learn along the way, Getting better At anything book, by Scott h Young,. And then learning to explain , using Jeff’s earlier consultant AI prompt examples, but output to MECE for learning , folks will excel faster on generating ideas on using tools given out . Literally , [ defining your problem space ] or [ area of engagement] first and dive fairly deep but board topics, helps most folks on their respective fields. Simple, concise yet contains overall sub - ideas of a topic helps tremendously
This video had me hooked from the first 10 seconds—funny, honest, and packed with genuinely useful insights. 🙌 You managed to take a beginner AI course and turn it into something actually worth watching (and laughing with). The way you explained Standalone vs. Integrated vs. Custom AI tools was incredibly clear—and I loved the reminder about surfacing implied context. That prompt tip alone is gold. 💡 As someone also diving deep into the future of AI, I recently launched my own channel called The Future with AI where I break down how these tools are reshaping everything—from productivity and creativity to society itself. Would love to connect with curious minds like yours and anyone else here fascinated by where all of this is heading. 🔮✨ Massive kudos again for making learning this stuff not only digestible, but genuinely entertaining. Subscribed and looking forward to what you share next!
Not surprising the Google course apparently doesn't highlight legal risks of using AI. 1. Writing prompts is external communication. If you use trade secrets or proprietary code in your prompts, you've just violated your company's NDA. 2. Generative AI has unknown copyrights. What you get back was trained on data with mixed copyrights. You'll have no idea if a response was pulled from a source that could lend you (or your company) into big legal trouble. Future refined AI technology will be much better at finding those violations, so it could happen years later.
This was exactly the content I was looking for.
I’ve been trapped at home with kids for 6 years. My brain is mush. Thanks for this video. Now I know stuff, AI stuff ✌🏾🇬🇧
hey jeff, great overview of google's course! while those prompting techniques are useful, most people don't realize that modern AI has evolved beyond needing complex prompting. at jenova ai, we've built an intelligent model router that automatically selects the best AI model for each task - no need to worry about zero-shot vs few-shot or chain of thought. just ask naturally like you're talking to a human assistant plus our system integrates real-time web search, youtube vids, reddit posts, and maps all in one place. way more practical than theoretical coursework imo btw loving your content! keep educating folks about AI 🙌
