Sundays are for scheming
Every Sunday I’m plotting to do one thing better than last week.
Embarrassing AI has been running for a month.
In that time I learned how to use AI as a tutor, teaching me how to build sites from scratch, including integrations with both Google and Claude APIs to perform data scraping and description creation, and to deploy the code to production.
This did not all go smoothly, but precisely the stumbling blocks along the way allowed me to practice at prompting, getting better over time.
Learning to prompt better is something I will focus on in December.
The one thing I plan to do better this coming month is to be faster, meaning discovering ways to get the AI to do the work rather than it telling me how to do it.
I also plan to do the following in December:
Launch the finished Fair Lawn Registry.
Launch a “how to build a registry site with AI” guide.
Vibe code an app and launch it before December 24. It’s part of a competition.
Work with Gemini to increase subscribers to Embarrassing AI and improve SEO.
Automate 2 services for small businesses
Let’s find out how this list looks by the end of the month!
Last Word.
The New Year starts in December for the same reason the week starts on Sunday.
Quietly plotting,

P.S. Did I do something totally backwards today? Or do you have a better prompt for this? Hit reply and tell me. I’m here to learn just as much as you are. (I read every single email).
