Get a MacBook Pro with as much memory as they offer. Install LM Studio, Ollama, and Python. Sign up for Hugging Face. Download models to run locally. Play around with prompting. No code required. If you want to build an "Agent" it's like 10 lines of code - just a loop, some tool/interface definition, and a line or two to keep glomming stuff onto the prompt.

I vibe coded an app that searches through my PowerPoint decks and PDFs. So when I want to find AI use cases specific to an industry, an approach slide or a specific architecture, I just type my question and the relevant slides show up. I did this locally on my MacBook Pro. Fantastic learning experience.

I switched from consulting to hands-on build an AI company. The pace of change will be so rapid that you need to be part of the change to truly stay relevant. At least that’s my bet…

I was part of publishing AI reports at my former company and saw first hand how little we knew in practice :)

Experiment, especially with tools that can actually be useful for your line of business. Forget the ”prompt engineering” trend and start thinking actual workflows like presentation making (try Gamma, but a bit hit and miss), interview analysis (try Skimle, but still requires manual review) and financial analysis (try Claude’s new tools, work well).

Then on top of personal AI use (table stakes), get smart on real life examples of use cases relevant for your clients and how they work in practice. Reading helps here, especially from more tech oriented people hanging out on their own forums as the glossy case studies are just bullshit.

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.
