If you’ve been doing something a long time, it can be hard to teach someone else.
I can stop on ice skates, but I struggle to teach new skaters how to do it. For me, I just think it, and it happens. I’ve been skating for over 50 years.
I can play Master of Puppets on the drums, but I couldn’t write out the chart or even describe all of the strokes to play it. I hear it, and my limbs just do it. I’ve been playing the drums for almost 50 years.
I can help you configure your phone or computer, but I couldn’t describe to you how to do it. Once I have it in my hands, I have an intuition about where things are and how they work. I’ve been using computers for almost 50 years.
Have you ever taught a teenager how to drive?
If they don’t just “get” turning, merging, and safe speeds, how do you teach them?
You probably just feel those things.
AI is a great teacher of information. It can write, speak, and create videos about any subject. It pulls info from anywhere, including your own expert input. It can watch you do it and create the step-by-step.
But it can’t teach feel or intuition.
Intuition comes from reps.
Don’t shortcut the reps.
