#27 - How to Delegate Your First Task to AI (Claude Code for Beginners)

Most people use AI like a chatbot. Connor explains how to use it like an employee. In this episode, we break down how non-technical founders, marketers, and business owners can start using Claude Code to delegate real tasks, build simple tools, and turn ideas into working outputs without needing to be an engineer. We talk about: • Why most people get stuck when moving from ChatGPT to agentic AI tools • How to think in “AI-shaped” problems inside your business • The easiest way to give Claude Code the right context and data • Why Markdown, folders, and simple workflows matter more than coding knowledge • How to use Claude Code to analyze content, generate ideas, and build dashboards • Why the best users of these tools may not be engineers at all If you want to stop just chatting with AI and start delegating real work to it, this episode is for you.
