Trying to stay on top of AI and level up your skills?
Every day I’m building with the latest AI frameworks and chatting to the folks on the cutting edge of AI, and we’ve compiled two valuable action plans for you.
Only 30 minutes required, so let’s dive in!
Plan 1: Claude 4
Claude 4 just changed the coding game and AI developer instructor Ray Fernando breaks it down:
- Utilize Claude 4's built-in extended thinking to enhance context retention during coding tasks.
- Break down coding tasks into incremental steps to trigger deeper checks and ensure accuracy.
- Leverage the compounding effect by systematically revisiting previous context, significantly boosting productivity.
Ray calls Claude 4 his "new workhorse," highlighting its unmatched capability to handle complex coding challenges.
Action Plan:
- Download Cursor or Windsurf now
- Open a new Chat and choose Agent
- Choose claude-4-sonnet as your model and ask the agent to “help me build _____”
- Chat back and forth with the Agent until it’s done
Plan 2: OpenAI Platform Account & Voice Agent
Nathanial Whittemore, the founder/CEO of Superintelligent, says tech trends aren't complicated - you just need to dive in:
- Non-coders: Experiment with vibe coding now to level up.
- Reasoning models are already essential - integrate them ASAP.
- Agents might not dominate daily tasks yet, but experimentation is key.
- Voice agents are rapidly becoming ubiquitous - explore their potential.
Taking action beats careful analysis here.
Action Plan:
- Sign up for a free OpenAI Platform account
- Go to their instructions to boot up your first voice agent
- Copy and paste that URL into Cursor Agent and say “help me build this”
