What is this lesson about

This week you move from practising AI tools to proving they work. You are going to choose one real project that matters to someone in your professional world, complete it using a four-tool AI workflow, and document the result in a format you can actually use — in a performance review, a job interview, or a client conversation.

By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

– Choose a project that demonstrates genuine AI-assisted value to a real stakeholder
– Complete it using a structured four-tool workflow (Perplexity, Claude, ChatGPT, AI refinement)
– Document the result as a before/after case study ready to use in professional contexts

How this fits the course

This is the first lesson of Block 2 and the first lesson of the Evidence Block (Weeks 13–16). Everything you did in Block 1 built your capability. The next four weeks are about building proof of that capability — starting with one well-chosen, well-documented project.

Choose your level before you start the exercise: Minimum (20 min), Standard (35 min), or Ambitious (50–60 min). All three are legitimate — pick what fits your week.
