Learning AI in Public

Tell me your problem.
We'll try fix it with AI.

I'm a dad with a background in trades and hospitality. Not a tech person.
I'm learning AI in public — building real tools, showing every step, including the failures.

Who is AI Dad?

Just a dad trying to figure this out in real time.

I've run a gas, electrical and plumbing business. I've owned and operated a bar and restaurant. I know what it's like to be time-poor, cash-conscious, and overwhelmed by things you don't fully understand.

AI felt like that — until I stopped trying to understand it all at once and just started building. Now I document everything here. The wins, the failures, the "why didn't I think of that sooner" moments.

This isn't a guru account. It's a building-in-public account.
