AI for Everyone

Origin Story of This Podcast

Image creation with AI is one of the fastest, easiest, and most entertaining ways to explore what these tools can do — especially when you stop trying to be practical.

In this episode of AI for Everyone, I jump into Grok’s Imagine tool and play.
No heavy prompts. No overthinking. Just curiosity.

We animate a real photo, turn it into a video, create something completely ridiculous (a cat flying through space on a piece of bacon), and even bring a rough doodle to life — all in real time so you can see how fast and accessible this is.

This isn’t about mastering AI.
It’s about experimenting, reacting, and having fun with it.

If you’ve been curious about AI image and video creation but didn’t know where to start, this is a great place to play.

This Might Be the Most Fun AI Image Tool Yet

f AI has started to feel loud, urgent, or impossible to keep up with, this episode is for you.

In Episode 2 of AI for Everyone, Joel Comm helps you step out of the noise and rethink what AI is actually for. No tech lingo. No panic. No pressure to master tools or chase updates.

Instead, this episode focuses on a simple, human idea:
AI should carry some of the mental load — not add more to it.

You’ll learn:


Why feeling overwhelmed by AI isn’t a personal failure


How to think about AI without trying to “keep up”


Where AI actually helps in everyday life — and where it doesn’t


Why experience, judgment, and wisdom matter more than ever

This isn’t about replacing who you are.
It’s about freeing up time, energy, and attention for the things that matter.

If you want a calmer, more practical relationship with AI — one that works for you instead of against you — you’re in the right place.

The Truth About AI (It's Not What You Think!)

If AI feels like it suddenly got very big, very fast, and hard to keep up with, this episode is for you.

In the Season 2 premiere of AI for Everyone, Joel Comm starts with a simple but important message: you’re not behind.

AI didn’t suddenly become powerful overnight. What changed is the volume — the headlines, the predictions, and the constant pressure to “keep up.” In this episode, Joel offers a calm, human-centered way to think about AI without jargon, fear, or hype.

You’ll learn:


Why AI feels overwhelming even if nothing is actually wrong


A simple mental model for what AI is (and isn’t) good at


Why you don’t need to “learn AI” or chase every new tool


How AI can act as a quiet assistant instead of a source of stress

This season of AI for Everyone focuses on the human side of AI — how it can support creativity, thinking, learning, and everyday life without replacing judgment or wisdom.

There’s no race. No firehose. And no pressure.

You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.
