Most people blindly use ChatGPT for everything.

The top 1% switch between AI tools.

I've spent this year testing every major AI tool.
And I can confidently say that ChatGPT can't do it all.

Different tools excel at different tasks.

The immigrant mathematics of AI mastery:
One tool for everything = average output
Right tool for the task = unfair advantage
And I don't want to be average. 
So you are. 

Thanks to Chris Donnelly for the post idea and a graphic. 

Here's your cheat sheet:

The best AI users aren't loyal to one tool.
They're loyal to results.

While everyone debates which AI is "the best,"
Smart users are switching between all three.

There's a Claude feature most people ignore.
It's the only one I use for real work.

Most people use AI wrong.
They open ChatGPT. Type a question. Get a generic answer.
Then wonder why AI "doesn't work" for them.

The immigrant mathematics of AI tools:
Random prompts + No context = Useless outputs
Right mode + Your files = An actual assistant

I use Claude. And it changed how I work.

Great infographic breakdown by Ruben Hassid 👇

Here's what most people miss:

Claude has 3 modes. Each one does something different.

Chat
You type. It answers.
No memory. No context. Starts blank every time.
Good for quick questions. Bad for real work.

Projects
Upload your files once. Write instructions once.
Claude remembers everything.
Perfect for recurring tasks — newsletters, reports, weekly content.

Cowork
This is the one most people skip.
Claude sits on your desktop. Reads your files. Creates new ones.
It sounds like you because it knows your style.

Yes, it sometimes takes 3 minutes. Sometimes more.
But the outputs are 10x better.

I want accurate answers over instant answers.

I'd rather wait 3 minutes for something I can use
than get 10 instant responses I have to rewrite.

Here's how I use it:

→ Chat for brainstorming and quick lookups
→ Projects for anything I do weekly
→ Cowork for deep work sessions where I need real files

Stop treating AI like a search engine.
Start treating it like a team member who needs context.

💭 Which mode do you use most? Have you tried Extended Thinking?

Yesterday I walked into EY's corporate walls.

For the first time in years.

But this time I wasn't an employee.
I was the entrepreneur they were celebrating.

EY hosted an event honouring founders.
The people who risk everything while everyone watches the highlight reel.

Sam Osmow & Bernadette Osmow-Farag catered the event. Osmow's. 
266 locations across Canada.

I put chicken on my plate, and my brain went straight to:
"How does this taste exactly the same as 3 years ago? Across 266 locations?"

So I asked him.

His story broke me.

Sam immigrated from Egypt. Started making sandwiches.
Then Subway opened next door.
Revenue dropped to $49 a day.

Forty-nine dollars. Family to feed. Mortgage to pay. Pressure is real. 

One day, frustrated, he was cooking Egyptian food for himself.
A customer walked in and asked, "What's that? Can I try it?"

He went home that night and told his family:
"We're cooking shawarma from now on."

25 years ago, Canadians didn't know what shawarma was.
Sam believed anyway.
Put his last money into it.

Then bars opened nearby.
Late-night crowds came hungry after drinks.
The Bread and Honey festival brought thousands.
Shawarma became popular overnight.

25 years later: 266 locations.
Every piece of chicken is marinated in-house.
That's why it tastes the same everywhere.

The immigrant mathematics of entrepreneurship:
We see the 266 locations.
We don't see the $49 days.
The decisions nobody understood.
The belief when nothing made sense.

Thank you, EY, Futurpreneurs, and every organization that celebrates entrepreneurs.

Put me on the list to win the award next time 😉 

Thank you for hosting me, Carlos Chalico, Selene Benavides, MBA
Thank you, Janis Nixon, Lauren Adams, Roxana L. & Futurpreneur for growing next-generation entrepreneurs. 

Thank you, Kevin Liu , Asar Qadir , and Dmitry G., for not being afraid and for building cool things check their businesses.

I used to screenshot infographics.
Now I make them in 3 minutes.

The immigrant mathematics of content:
Saving infographics = Promoting their brand
Creating infographics = Building yours

Image credits: Ruben Hassid

Here's how I make sketch infographics with AI:

1️⃣ Find a YouTube video worth visualizing

Go to YouTube. Find an actionable video. Copy the URL.


2️⃣ Let Gemini do the heavy lifting

Paste the URL into Gemini with this prompt:

"Analyse this YouTube video about [topic]: [YT URL]. Summarise this into direct, actionable steps to follow along."

Wait for Gemini to process. You'll get clean, structured notes.


3️⃣ Turn notes into a visual

Click Tools → Create images.

Use this prompt:

"Visualise the summary of these notes. Create a realistic photograph of a dry-erase whiteboard with a frame. The content should be presented as a hand-drawn sketchnote using 'graphic recording' style. The layout should be in 9:16 format.

Style & Layout Guidelines:
→ Medium: Whiteboard surface with dry-erase markers (not paper)
→ Colors: Black for outlines, boxes, and main text. Red, Blue, and Green for headers and accents
→ Structure: Title "[TITLE]" at the top in large, open lettering. Five numbered rectangular boxes arranged in a grid below
→ Visuals: Simple line-drawing doodles for each point
→ Typography: Handwritten, all-caps printing, legible and organized
→ Environment: Include a used whiteboard eraser and colorful EXPO-style markers on the bottom wooden ledge"


That's it. 3 minutes. Your content. Your brand.

Stop saving. Start creating.

How to create viral infographic using Gemini

Google built 17+ AI tools.

I am sure you don't know half of them.

I missed a few. Google ships so fast that some tools don't last two years. 
(RIP Google Tables, end of 2025.)

Great idea and visual for the post came from Charlie Hills 🦩 . 
 
Here's what's worth your attention:

THE MODELS

Gemini 3 Thinking: The reasoning engine.
"Deep Think" capabilities for complex coding and logic.

Gemini 3 Fast: The speed engine.
Low-latency model for high-volume tasks and instant responses.

The immigrant mathematics of Google's strategy:
Deploy separately + Test in the wild = Roll into core products

Lumiere powers Veo 3.1. Vids feeds into NotebookLM.

They're not building tools. They're building an ecosystem where each piece strengthens the whole.

While everyone debates which AI company will win,
Google is quietly connecting the dots.

💭 Which tool are you trying first?

I help you (actually) use AI for content.

I watched 50 AI tutorials.
Still couldn't automate a single workflow.

I was jumping between tools.
ChatGPT one day. Agents, the next. Then some framework I didn't understand.

Nothing stuck. Nothing connected.

The immigrant mathematics of AI learning:
Random tools + No foundation = Expensive confusion
Step-by-step approach + Real use cases = AI fluency

Here's the 15-step roadmap I wish I had:

1. AI Chatbots (Master the basics first)

→ Understand how LLMs actually think
→ Learn prompting. Get consistent outputs every time
→ Apply it: content, research, brainstorming
→ Explore plugins and custom GPTs
→ Use chatbots for business support and idea validation

2. AI Agents (Automate the boring stuff)

→ Pick a platform: Make, Zapier, or n8n
→ Connect your apps and databases
→ Build workflows that run without you
→ Add error handling. Make it bulletproof
→ Plug in LLMs for intelligent automation

3. Agentic AI (Build what others can't)

→ Learn agent frameworks and tool integration
→ Set up vector databases for memory
→ Apply chain-of-thought reasoning
→ Build agent teams that solve complex problems
→ Deploy full pipelines with smart decision-making

Most people start at step 15.
Then wonder why nothing works.

Start simple. Build skills. Then build agents.

The goal isn't to collect AI tools.
It's to solve real problems with them.

Stop guessing what your Audience want.
They're already telling you on Reddit.

I use Reddit to find what people actually struggle with.
Then I turn their pain into posts that perform.

The immigrant mathematics of content research:
Guessing topics + Generic advice = Posts that flop
Real pain points + AI workflow = Content that hits

Here's my exact system:

Step 1: Find the pain

→ Go to Reddit
→ Find a post in your niche with real discussion
→ Add /.json to the end of the URL
→ Copy the entire metadata (includes all replies)

Step 2: Extract what matters

→ Open Grok
→ Paste this prompt:

"Here's the JSON of a Reddit conversation around: "[TOPIC]".

Extract the pain points, then make 5 viral hooks (2 lines each) on the same topic.

Match the format, style and tone of these 3 hooks:

///Hook 1
[paste your best performing hook]
///Hook 2
[paste your best performing hook]
///Hook 3
[paste your best performing hook]

JSON: [PASTE REDDIT METADATA]"

Step 3: Turn pain into posts

→ Open Claude
→ Paste this prompt:

"Act like a LinkedIn ghostwriter who writes posts that get saved + shared.

Goal: Create 5 LinkedIn posts on this topic.

Use my 4 example posts below. Match their structure, pacing, formatting (short lines + whitespace), and voice — but ideas, wording, and hooks must be NEW.

Rules:
- Each post starts with a strong 2-line hook
- Keep it skimmable
- 1 clear takeaway + 1 framework
- End with a CTA: 'Repost for others to...'
- No generic advice. No repeated angles.
- Do NOT copy phrases from examples.

Example posts:

///Post 1
[PASTE POST]
///Post 2
[PASTE POST]
///Post 3
[PASTE POST]
///Post 4
[PASTE POST]

Now write 5 new posts about: [TOPIC FROM GROK]"

Your audience isn't waiting for your content.
They're complaining about their problems on Reddit right now.

Go listen.

How to create linkedin posts with reddit

I couldn't get out of bed for 2 months.

Not sick. Not injured.
Depressed.

Today I finally did a workout.
First one in weeks.

And I realized something I've been avoiding:

Entrepreneurship is a subscription to suffering.

Everyone brings you their problems.
You absorb them all.
You pretend you're fine.
You're not.

The immigrant mathematics of entrepreneurship:
Chaos doesn't stop = you learn to carry it
Avoiding pain = more pain later
Reacting better = the only way forward

I kept thinking it would change.
That one day the problems would stop coming.
That I'd finally "figure it out" and feel okay.

It won't change.
This is the game.

The only thing I can control is how I react.

We live in an era of uncertainty.
AI is rewriting the rules every week.
Nobody knows what's coming tomorrow.

So instead of overthinking, I'm doing.
Instead of waiting for clarity, I'm moving.
Instead of avoiding the hard stuff, I'm walking into it.

The founders who make it aren't the ones who avoid suffering.
They're the ones who stop letting it paralyze them.

I'm still learning this.
Some days I forget completely.

But today I got out of bed.
And that's enough for now.

💭 What's the hardest part of entrepreneurship nobody warned you about?

♻️ Repost if a founder in your network is silently struggling
➕ Follow Anna Bilan ⚡️ for the real side of building

The biggest challenge of entrepreneurship isn't customers.
It's not revenue.
It's managing your own emotions.

Founder depression is real. 
And nobody talks about it.

After the New Year, I was depressed. 
Sour feelings. Staying in bed. Avoiding any personal contact. 
Tired. "Lazy". Eating. Watching movies. 

You work 80-hour weeks.
Execute everything you planned.
Follow the playbook perfectly.

And it still doesn't work.

The immigrant mathematics of employment:
Good performance = paycheck
Bad performance = still paycheck

The immigrant mathematics of entrepreneurship:
Perfect execution = maybe nothing
80% of effort = wasted anyway

It's the mindset that needs to be changed. 
It's about allowing yourself to fail. 
It's allowing yourself to not always be at your best. 

I'd do everything right.
Still fail.
Then spiral.

My reaction to bad circumstances shouldn't affect my mental health.
But it does.
Every single time.

When you're an employee, you're protected from outcomes.
When you're a founder, outcomes are all you have.

And when they don't come?
You question everything.
Your skills. Your judgment. Your worth.

What I had to learn the hard way:

80% of the effort is wasted. That's the game.
Not a sign you're failing.
A sign you're playing.

The founders who survive aren't the ones who avoid failure.
They're the ones who stop letting failure live rent-free in their heads.

I'm still learning this.
Some days I forget it completely.

But the shift from employment to entrepreneurship isn't about strategy.
It's about accepting that chaos is the baseline.

And your mental health is the only asset that compounds.

💭 How do you protect your headspace when results don't match effort?
