Level 5 · Ongoing

Wise Guide

You will be the person in your circle that others ask.

This level is less a course than a habit. You know enough to judge new tools yourself, and enough to teach the person who is where you started.

What this level covers

  1. The deeper features

    Custom instructions, uploading documents to ask about, and assistants that remember your preferences.

  2. Teaching someone else

    What works when explaining this to a hesitant friend — and what backfires. Mostly: go slower than feels necessary.

  3. Tying the house together

    Lights, doorbell, speakers, and reminders working as one, not as five separate gadgets.

  4. Judging a new tool

    Six questions to ask before trusting anything new with your information.

  5. Contributing

    Sharing what worked, and what did not, with others learning here.

  6. Your own routines

    Building the small daily patterns that make this genuinely yours.

Try it yourself

Three short exercises. There is nothing to submit and nobody is marking them.

  • Teach one person one thing. Notice where they get stuck — it is rarely where you expect.
  • Evaluate a tool you have never used against the six questions.
  • Write down your own morning routine with AI in it, and follow it for a week.
Still being made Video tutorials, step-by-step screenshots, and the printable “Judging a New Tool — one page, large print” cheat sheet are in production for this level. In the meantime, the written steps above stand on their own, and the two finished guides are ready to print today.
