Course details
Most people use AI to get answers faster. Justin Shaifer teaches business professionals to use it to think better. In this course, Justin explains why AI tools are built to agree with you, what that quietly costs you and your team, and how to set up a conversation where AI argues back instead of nodding along. He covers loading real context, configuring tools to challenge you by default, directing AI research, verifying AI output, and running full sparring sessions on real work. Every technique is demonstrated across AI tools (including Claude and ChatGPT), so the skill travels with you no matter which tool you use. After finishing this course, you will have built a personal library of sparring prompts you can run against any future project.This course was created by Justin Shaifer. We are pleased to host this training in our library.
