AI doesn’t always have to be about work, productivity, or staying relevant.

In this episode of the AI Beginner Academy Podcast, Steve switches gears and explores something lighter: using AI just for fun.

If you’re feeling burned out on “AI at work” conversations, this episode is a reminder that curiosity, play, and experimentation are just as important — and often the best way to get comfortable with new tools.

No optimization.
No pressure.
No expectations.

You’ll hear a listener question from Scott, a fun AI Hot Tip you can try in minutes, and a surprisingly silly example created using AI — just to show what happens when you take the pressure off and explore.
