We love learning about new stuff. We even hype new stuff.

Unfortunately, when I first got interested in artificial intelligence, I had a hard time figuring out where to start. AI had been on my innovation roadmaps for years. But I am neither an IT person nor an AI person. I would consider myself more a pen-and-paper person.

What changed in November 2022, is that really every person can now use AI. No prior knowledge needed. Just speak, or just chat. Of course, there are some tweaks on how to speak best with an AI, but we will come to that in the next days.

So, if you are trying to learn more about ChatGPT or generative AI in general, here's the best way to get started:

• Read This Book: Co-Intelligence by Ethan Mollik will give you a lay of the land and is a helpful way to get your bearings.

• Also watch this: The AI Dilemma by Center of Humane Technology is a must-read beginner resource for anyone interested in Generative AI.

• Listen To This Podcast: And if you really want to start going down the rabbit hole, listen to Hardfork Podcast from the NYT.

These 3 resources will exponentially accelerate your learning process.
