- social media is adversarial so don't panic when it says everyone else has it figured out and you're behind
- the ai tech is solid but unfamiliar, so your job is to build daily habits of testing new tools, not chase hype

- write about what you're learning in public, even badly, since showing curiosity builds your reputation over time
- before interviewing somewhere, try the product and send feedback or a quick demo directly to the hiring manager
