Learn AI in 30 Days — Accountability Check-In

This check-in takes 5 minutes. Do it at the end of each week — not at the end of 30 days. The weekly rhythm is what makes the accountability real.

Check in · Course correct

The rule: Answer every question. Don't skip the hard ones — those are the ones that actually help. This document is private. No one is grading you.
