How I Use AI in My Work

"Do you actually use AI in your everyday work?"

Short answer: yes.

I started using AI tools around the time ChatGPT first came out. Back then, I mainly used it as a marketer: small content edits, alternative headlines, structure suggestions. It was helpful, but also quite limited and prone to obvious errors.

The tools are much more capable now, but one thing hasn't changed: I still treat AI as a tool I work with, not something I hand work over to. It can speed things up, but I'm still responsible for the final result.

Because I work in startup environments and often end up doing semi-technical work too, I wanted to understand these tools more seriously. I joined AI Dev Tools Zoomcamp to learn more about coding assistants, agents, and automation in a more structured way.

I already use AI to:

• Draft and iterate on landing pages
• Generate small scripts for technical SEO (for example, adding or updating structured data)
• Experiment with how websites are built and styled, using AI to suggest code changes and then reverse-engineering what happened

The part I'm most curious about is building an AI coding agent. I've already experimented a little with LLM APIs, but I want a better understanding of how these systems are built and where they're genuinely useful in real work.
