Today I'm excited to announce the next chapter of @100schoolHQ 👀 Quick backstory (bear with)… Every founder has that moment when the data is screaming at you, but you're not listening. Mine was 2 years ago. 100 Days of AI got 3x the learners of everything else we'd built. Literally overnight. The message was clear: AI is the future My response: "Let's keep teaching no-code + ALL the tech skills too" 🤦 Part of me is annoyed at myself for not having the foresight. But more of me knows that being late is our superpower. While everyone rushed to market with "ChatGPT 101" courses... We watched. We studied. We learned. We discovered why most professionals are stuck using AI like a better Google. Why they're drowning in tutorial hell. And how the top performers operate differently. They don't just use AI better. They've restructured their *entire* professional operating system around AI. Today, 100 school is going all-in on AI education. I promise not to teach you another shiny tool. But to help you become an AI-first professional (and eventually a 100x one) The hype cycle is over. The real work begins now. Start your AI-first journey in September (link in comments) Once you’re in, help us spread the word pls & thx: 1️⃣ Drop a 💯 + repost 2️⃣ Tag someone we should team up with 3️⃣ DM me if you wanna support

@HainingMax the habits are harder than they look but def worth it

@dailystartupfix @100schoolHQ @Ocado thankyou!!

@HainingMax @100schoolHQ @Ocado congrats Max,

I’m excited to announce that @100schoolHQ is partnering with @Ocado, the world's largest online grocery retailer, to explore more ways they can implement AI to boost efficiencies in their daily work with their UK team, starting today. We’re deploying 15 Days of AI, our flagship enterprise product that drives measurable behaviour change in just 3 weeks. Every day for 15 days, employees rewire how they work with AI in less than 15 minutes. No teaching AI like it’s just another SaaS tool. No death-by-webinar. Just daily practice that compounds. This is what AI adoption looks like when you focus on habits over hype, frameworks over tools and cognitive skills over (just) clicking.

@jamesdevonport @brightonfringe looks great James - would be great to visit one weekend!

My favourite time of year in Brighton is May for @brightonfringe, but with nearly 1k events happening it can be hard to find things! I made this little website for fun to help find shows you'll like with a bubble map, AI matcher & calendar view ✨ fringefinder.co.uk

I've been living at @ns for the last month - 400+ founders, creatives, freelancers all in one place. it honestly feels like eavesdropping into the future. here are some observations that I think are early signals of where things are heading...the MACRO TRENDS 👇 1️⃣ Everyone is building something. every single person here has a side project. an app, a course, a product. as AI shrinks teams and reshapes roles, more people will start building their own things. a few people are here are fresh from being laid off, now they are building. 2️⃣ the AI fluency gap is enormous. 84% of the world hasn't used AI at all. Most who have are using it as a chat assistant. Everyone here is deploying agents. There is a clear shift towards ai *doing the work*, not just talking about it with you. 3️⃣ Intelligence has a price tag. one person here has seven paid claude accounts. SEVEN. most have more than one. I was surprised at first. but actually, i think for most of us our imagination just hasn't caught up to what's possible with applying that much usage to our lives/work. it also emphasised to me that your ability to extract AI's potential depends on access - internet, devices, and how much paid usage you can afford. one account vs seven is a completely different capability. who can buy intelligence at volume is going to be one of the defining inequalities of the next decade. 4️⃣ taste is the new skill. The people here building the most interesting things aren't the most technical. They're the most opinionated about what good looks like. AI is downstream from your own perspective. Craft your point of view, your judgment, your taste, FIRST. 5️⃣ robots are already here. every day i watch people playing the chess robot in cafe. it may seem small but I think it's actually a peek into how AI will enter our physical lives. 6️⃣ fitness is infrastructure, not a hobby. Daily exercise, cold plunges, longevity routines. people here are projecting their health forward 20-30 years. Preventative over reactive. We're already seeing this shift... and it's going to reshape wellness / healthcare. 7️⃣ dense community is the antidote. In an ultra-connected but lonely world, people here chose physical proximity. shared meals, shared space, shared purpose. 8️⃣ agency is the throughline. The thing connecting all of this - the building, the fitness, the fluency — is agency. the biggest question for the next decade: how do you help more people find it? it starts with connecting people to meaning, to curiosity, to work that actually matters to them. this place isn't the future for everyone. but i think it's a preview for a lot more people than we realise. hope some of these observations spark something useful 😊

Noah Kagan just appointed a "Claude Operating Officer" at AppSumo. It made me laugh – and then it made me uncomfortable. Because every company @100schoolHQ has worked with in the last 12 months has this person. The one who got curious about AI, got good at it, and quietly became the go-to for everyone else. Except nobody gave them a title. Or a pay rise. Or even acknowledged it's now half their job. They just absorbed it. On top of EVERYTHING else. At first, that's fine. Informal champions experimenting, sharing tips, helping people get unstuck – that's how AI adoption begins. But companies keep scaling the expectation without scaling the support. More tools. More people needing help. Same handful of champions carrying the heat for free. Frankly that's a burnout plan, not an AI strategy. Companies that are actually getting somewhere are formalising this. Put it in their job description. Don't make it just some token title. Real hours. Real development. This is a REAL role, not "can you also do AI stuff on top of your day job" but "this is yours now, let's set you up for it." If your company has these people – and it does – stop hoping they keep volunteering. Start INVESTING in them. It's not just the right thing to do either. These people are simultaneously the folks who created initial momentum, BUT without investment will be the blockers to scaling your "ai-first" efforts. Who's this person at your company? they're doing gods work. Tag them. Tag yourself 👇

who is this at your company? name them. they are doing gods work

@IamKeshavSharma @ns @100schoolHQ hahaha i didn't know that was in the bryan johnson diet?? crazy 😂 thankyou - see you tommorrow i'm sure!!

Hey friends, quick personal life update: i’ve moved to malaysia for a month with Network School (@ns ) Let me explain… Yesterday was 6yrs since i started @100schoolHQ from my bedroom during covid. I feel very grateful that i get to build a school every single day. But it's also an endurance battle and i realised in the haziness of being so busy at the start of this year, i drifted away from myself a little. Not in a super bad way but in a life is happening to me, everything is on autopilot kind of way. And in that, i’d lost my spark, the enthusiam to share anything on socials, to exercise etc... When i started reflecting why, it made total sense. All my life inputs have been GARBAGE My content diet (= doomscrolling on x), fitness diet (back injury), food diet (reactive cooking mixed with fast food), social (feeling too busy to build / nurture relationships), creative (no outlet for creative stuff outside of work) has all been trash to put it plainly. And just like with AI, it truly is: if you put garbage in, you get garbage out. duhhh! That meant: physical, mental, social & creative depletion for me. So i thought i’d send a shockwave to my system and totally flip my environment - and essentially “live” my way into a new feeling mentally, physically, socially and creatively. That;s where Network School (@ns) is super interesting… And it’s already started working by the end of week 1...I mean a week ago writing anything felt like looking up at a moutain. They’re essentially building a micro-city and what's very cool is they’ve designed it in a way where it’s hard: - not to be focused (coworking, everyone is a builder) - not to be fit (gym, burn sessions) - not to eat healthy (bryan johnson meals breakfast lunch and dinner) - not to feel connected (live next to everyone with similar goals in close proximity), - not to feel inspired (daily learn sessions with world class speakers). So here i am, who knows what will happen, but hopefully you’ll be hearin from me more, because outside ALL of this, the @100schoolHQ team has been building some amazin things that i feel guilty for not sharing (yet!!)

@heyohelen @ns @100schoolHQ @yash_luna yess! i feel like you'll really like it!

@HainingMax @ns @100schoolHQ ooo exciting max!! ive actually always wanted to go to ns since it started... one day @yash_luna we will meet irl

@Insharamin @ns @100schoolHQ absolutely! super impressed so far

@HainingMax @ns @100schoolHQ Looking forward to hearing more about your experience at @ns.

If building something in education, definitely drop a reply and show me. Would love to explore + help however I can.

We can talk all day about how these models are going to produce so much good and produce value. And I think they will. But the reality is many of my buddies are unemployed, can't seem to find jobs, and continue to send 1,000 resumes a week on LinkedIn. This is even worse for new grads. These models are wonderful tools but a majority of people don't know how to do much other than write emails with them. Just because you invent a tool like the hammer, doesn't mean everyone is going to magically know how to build a house with it. I don't think people are lazy. Last week I made a tweet doing a free Codex class and 5,000 people came by. It's clear people want to build and adapt, they just don't know where to start. The appetite is there, but nearly all of the scaffolding + education is missing. AI people love to quote the industrial revolution all the time, and how back then people were scared of machines taking their jobs but it all worked out. What they never mention is that it only worked out because we built an entire education system from scratch to bring everyone along. The industrial revolution created a massive wave of new jobs and nobody was trained for any of them. The tools didn't save anyone on their own, because the education had to catch up. It's never been a better time to start an education company. Millions of people want to learn, many of the tools are free, and the only thing missing is someone showing them the way.

@NathanKrupa that's incredible! and makes me optimistic about all of this, tell him to keep going 🔥🔥

@HainingMax Thanks! I've handed the project over to my son and he's already making it better. I want him to learn to use Claude code. He's 13, and having so much fun. How many 13-year-olds are building their own online games?

Hey @HainingMax, I just finished #30DaysofAI with #100School, and it was amazing. It's a great introduction to lots of new tools and ways to use AI. It inspired me to build my first video game, yourfirstbillion.com. Still an MVP, but it's a start!

@PabloGonz1981 appreciate the share Pablo! glad it landed 🙏

Los ensayos son cada vez más largos. Los modelos mejoran. El personal de seguridad se va. Las rondas de financiación son cada vez más grandes. Y la IA aún no sabe que necesitas llevar el coche al lavadero. Sigue experimentando,aprendiendo y mantén tu criterio alerta. @HainingMax
