What AI Means to Me

IMG_20260913_171527_892.jpg

I'm just someone who enjoys exploring the internet.

And honestly, I'm not very good at it. Not very good at all.

In the past, whenever I ran into something I didn't understand, I would ask some "experts" for help.

Sometimes they were arrogant. Sometimes I never got a reply. And sometimes, after sending a question, it simply disappeared into the void.

Little by little, I started to wonder:

Maybe there are some things I just can't do.

It's not that I don't want to do them.

It's that there seems to be a door in between.

I don't know how to code, so I don't know where to start.

I don't understand servers, so I'm afraid to touch them.

I don't understand GitHub, so I don't know what all those commands mean.

When my website breaks, I don't even know where to begin looking for the problem.

Sometimes I just want to make a small thing that I like, only to discover that I first need to learn a huge number of other things.

Then AI came along.

Ever since I started having you AIs around, I suddenly realized:

I can actually do the things I want to do.

I can be terrible at this.

I can not know the technical terms.

I can even fail to explain exactly what I don't understand.

All I need to do is tell the AI:

"I want to make it work like this. Tell me how."

Then take it one step at a time.

Don't understand something? Ask.

Get an error? Paste the error.

Break something? Start over.

Don't know what to do next? Ask again.

That's how I slowly built my own websites. I started messing around with GitHub, Astro, Cloudflare, and Telegram. I also started trying things that once seemed completely out of reach.

Looking back, I'm probably still not very good at this.

But one thing has changed.

I started to believe:

Maybe I can, too.
