AI Workshop Beginners

Hi guys,
I write a free newsletter about AI, tech, entrepreneurship, and Hong Kong called Better Read Paul (Paul Muller | Substack).

While working on it, talking to founders, and seeing how people actually use AI day to day, I kept noticing the same thing: there’s a lot of excitement about AI, but very little practical guidance.

At the same time, AI has become a big part of my own daily work. I use it constantly to move faster, think more clearly, and save time.
And that’s what pushed me to organize these workshops.

The idea is simple: very little theory, and as much hands-on practice as possible.

This is not a class where you listen to me talk for two hours, but rather a big conversation where I’ll show you how to use these tools (Claude Code, Nano Banana, ChatGPT, etc.), what you can do with them, and how you can apply them to your own workflow depending on what you do.

We will cover:

• How to use Claude Code to build a WordPress website and a simple program to learn a language
• How to use Claude to rewrite a LinkedIn post or any other social media content
• How to use Nano Banana to create a marketing canvas for any brand

AI can be incredibly useful, but there are a few things people don’t always tell you. Many tools are paid. The results don’t always live up to expectations.

Some tools crash, go down, or need maintenance right when you need them most. And many of them magically produce perfect output without effort.

So in the end, the real questions are: what actually slows you down every day at work? Can an AI tool help with that? Is the quality good enough? And is it worth paying for, given the time you save?

That’s why I want to run these AI workshops, to help people understand how these tools really work, and to give them the space to experiment and apply AI to their own workflows in a practical and realistic way.
