I really enjoyed the class. Sherveen provided information that helped differentiate all the AI options out there and skills to help discern future options too. I would def recommend it if you are new to AI.

As an independent consultant in New York City, I've been exposed to AI solutions in both my personal and professional work. Sherveen's class is a strong foundation for beginners and a path forward for advanced users. He's practical, strategic, and methodical. I especially enjoyed the details he shared about AI agents and agentic workflows, as well as how to build personalized AI tools for your own work. Sherveen is the kind of teacher who respects your intelligence while still challenging your assumptions. Highly recommend.

I’ve watched 100+ hours of Lightning videos and can say with certainty Sherveen’s AI Fluency course is the real deal. If you’ve hit a plateau learning AI yourself, or unsure what’s hype vs. helpful—sign up immediately. I could’ve saved months of spinning my wheels over what’s important / where to start. Just follow Sherveen’s frameworks, and rest assured in 3 weeks your AI tinkering will finally get fun and WAY more frictionless. Plus—if you’re considering any of the $200/mo model subscriptions—this course can pay for itself by avoiding the plans that aren’t really worth it… + leveraging the HELL out of what you do pay for! This *is* the course you’re looking for <kenobi voice>

Sherveen has an infectious curiosity and enthusiasm for AI, and the class covers so much material - the basic structure of an LLM, then a super detailed but fast overview of how more independent models work, with the end goal of designing agents and custom software for your own work needs. As a person outside the tech or marketing worlds, there were times I had to dig through a lot of tech speak to figure out what was being said. I think the class would be most useful for someone currently in a workplace where AI is being introduced and they have the opportunity to put a lot of the homework assignments to good use (especially since getting the most out of various models means paying for subscriptions). That said, it did inspire me to think about what custom software would be useful to me and what kinds of personalized context I'd need to build to use LLMs regularly. I really appreciated that Sherveen is focused on teaching about AI in a way that doesn't depend on one particular company, but instead encourages everyone to to think structurally and understand where data lives and where processing is happening, so moving between various programs in the future is easier.
