Nobody gets good at AI from a course. You get good by touching it daily.
Pick one AI tool and open it every morning for ten minutes, same time.
Ask it something real from your actual day. A reply you're dreading, a plan you're avoiding, a thing you don't understand.
Notice one thing it did well and one thing it got wrong. Both are the lesson.
What sprouts By Friday it stops feeling like a novelty and starts feeling like a colleague.

Explain It To Me Twice
The best use of AI early on is understanding things you were pretending to understand.
Take one thing from your work you nod along to but couldn't explain.
Ask AI to explain it like you're new, then again like you're an expert.
Ask it the follow-up you'd be embarrassed to ask a person.
What sprouts One less thing you're faking, and a habit that compounds.

Teach It Your Voice
Generic AI writing is worse than no help at all.
Collect the five best things you've ever written.
Ask AI to describe your voice. The rhythm, the warmth, what you'd never say.
Save that as your voice guide and open every writing session with it.
What sprouts Drafts that sound like you on a good day.
That is week 1
Worth talking through with someone who has done it?
The seeds are the easy part. Deciding what to keep, what to drop and what to try next in your own situation is where people get stuck on their own. I do short calls for exactly this, and the first one is free.
