Hey Reader, Everyone wants to build a mobile app, but nobody shows you how. On Dec 10th, I'm building an AI-powered camera app for iPhone from scratch - and I'm recording the whole thing. What You Get Full "build with me" recording (watch at your own pace) Live Q&A session where I answer your questions and troubleshoot Step-by-step checklist to get it live in Apple AppStore Lifetime access to the AI Builder's Circle community But here's the thing... This is NOT for complete beginners. You...

Hey Reader, Google dropped Gemini 3 Pro this week. Everyone lost their minds. Then 24 hours later, OpenAI was like: "F*ck you Google! Here's our new model and it's even better!" So here's what happened in these 24 hours of model insanity. And more importantly: If you should even care. What's Really Going On I've watched this play out for a year now. Every single time a new SOTA (state of the art) model drops, the same thing happens: Before release: "This is going to change EVERYTHING!" After...

Hey Reader, You can also listen to this episode here. So, GPT-5.1 was released last week and... it feels completely broken. I'm not being dramatic. I spent 6 hours testing it, and something's off. And judging by the 8,200 people who saw my tweet about it... I'm not alone. The Model Explosion Cursor dropped 15 (!) GPT-5.1 models at once. What? GPT-5.1 Fast. GPT-5.1 High Fast. GPT-5.1 Codex Mini. GPT-5.1 Codex Mini High... It's really overwhelming. I stuck with GPT-5.1 Fast and High Fast...

Hey Reader, You're in trouble if you're non-tech and use tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Droid I've also tested the recent Chinese models, and have a final opinion on Cursor's Composer-1. Here's everything that happened this week. The Terminal Trap Terminal AI coders are lightning fast. Super fun. And that’s exactly the problem. They’re SO easy to use that I stopped paying attention. Think of it like cooking an instant microwave meal vs. actually cooking. The microwave is faster, but you...

hey Reader, Last week has been wild because Cursor and Windsurf both released their own AI models. I briefly tested Windsurf's SWE-1 model (quite good, free right now, solid output), but I've spent way more time with Cursor's Composer-1. At first, I loved it because it was fast and looked affordable on paper. But after a week of extensive testing, while everyone's calling it a game-changer, I took a closer look. Spoiler: it's not what it seems. Marketing vs. Reality Here's what Cursor wants...

Hey Reader October's almost done. And my AI coding setup is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than it was 30 days ago. Here's what changed (and what you should steal). #1 - I Broke Up With GPT-5 Codex Look, GPT-5 is brilliant. Codex too. But they're SO SLOW that it kills the vibes. I still use them every day, but not for coding anymore. Just for planning. Think of it like having a wise old architect who takes forever to draw blueprints. Great for strategy, terrible when you need to build fast. So I...

Hey Reader, Does this sound familiar? You spent months trying to launch an app. You absolutely LOVED what you built, you polished it, made it absolutely perfect. Then you launched it, and... 🥁 nobody cared! This is the biggest problem that my students, and I will admit, I myself still struggle with. You're Too Smart to Ship Fast Here's your problem: the smarter you are, the easier it is to convince yourself you know what users want before they tell you. You see the elegant solution. The...

Hey Reader I need to confess something embarrassing. For years, I was the worst kind of engineer. The kind who spent 100 hours perfecting code for apps that never launched. Clean architecture. Zero bugs. Fully scalable. And completely worthless, because nobody used them. Here's The Painful Truth While I was busy "doing it right"... Non-technical founders were shipping garbage code and making money. My perfect projects were sitting in GitHub repos. Their messy apps took daily payments. The...
