The 5 Levels of AI-Native: How to Get From Level 1 to Level 5 in 30 days | Peter Yang

Peter Yang spent 10+ years building products at Roblox, Reddit, Amazon (Twitch), and Meta. Then he walked away from a high-paying job at Roblox to go all-in as a solo builder. His newsletter Behind the Craft has 140K+ readers, and his podcast has deep conversations with 30+ AI leaders from Anthropic, Google, Cursor, and Replit. In this episode he breaks down how: how to move from using AI like a search engine to building systems that run your work, how to build a personal AI that knows your strategy, and the one thing to do this week to get ahead. We cover: * The 5 layers of AI adoption, from "I ask ChatGPT questions" to "AI runs my whole operation," and how to find which layer you're actually on * Why you should stop using ChatGPT and Claude chat and switch to Codex or Claude Code, even if you've never written a line of code * The one-day reset: cancel every meeting, brain-dump your real workflows out loud, and let AI turn them into skills that save hours every week * TRICK: the personal advisor skill — a one-page Google Doc with your goal, your principles, and what gives vs. drains your energy, so your AI checks your decisions before you make them * How he uses learnings.md so his AI remembers the right things about him and gets smarter every conversation * The "last 10%" rule that keeps AI content from becoming slop, and why human taste is the whole job now * How he builds a working personal app (a fitness tracker, a scam-email blocker for his parents) in a couple of hours * His honest fears: getting dumber on a flight with no wifi, and what he's doing differently to raise kids who still learn the fundamentals * The exact action plan for your next 7 days to go from consumer to builder Links: Subscribe to my free newsletter where I go deeper on AI tools, career strategies, and building with AI: ⁠https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=PeterYang⁠ [⁠⁠https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=PeterYang⁠⁠ ] 🔗 Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/%E2%81%A0] 𝕏 : ⁠https://x.com/siliconvalleymm⁠ [https://x.com/siliconvalleymm%E2%81%A0] 💼 LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko%E2%81%A0] 📌 My Companies & Products: ⁠https://Marinamogilko.co [https://Marinamogilko.co]

Godmother of Silicon Valley: How to Raise a CEO | Esther Wojcicki

Esther Wojcicki is the "Godmother of Silicon Valley." She raised three daughters: Susan, who ran YouTube; Anne, who founded 23andMe; and Janet, a professor and anthropologist. Her parenting advice got me through the hardest parts of new motherhood, and YouTube, which Susan built, is the reason I have a career at all. In this episode we cover: * The one rule that decides whether AI makes a kid smarter or just lets them cheat themselves: do the work first, then ask AI to grade it like a teacher * Why she's against banning phones, social media, or AI for kids, and what she'd teach instead * TRICK: the five-part system (Trust, Respect, Independence, Collaboration, Kindness) she used to raise three founders, and how to run it on yourself as an adult * How to rebuild trust in yourself if you were raised to chase everyone else's approval * The three sentences she told Anne when 23andMe was falling apart * The billion-dollar bet Susan almost didn't make, the one that became YouTube * Why she still tells parents to push for college in the AI age * What she says to every mom who's afraid AI will take her kid's job Links: Subscribe to my free newsletter where I go deeper on AI tools, career strategies, and parenting in the AI age: https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=EstherWojcicki [https://siliconvalleygirl.beehiiv.com/subscribe?utm_source=spotify&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=futureproof-sub&utm_content=EstherWojcicki] 🔗 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/ [https://www.instagram.com/siliconvalleygirl/] 𝕏 : https://x.com/siliconvalleymm [https://x.com/siliconvalleymm] 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko [https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamogilko] 📌 My Companies & Products: https://Marinamogilko.co [https://Marinamogilko.co]

The 5-Layer System to Make Your Business Run on AI

In 5 years the most valuable companies will run as a closed AI loop — every call, email, and content metric feeding back into one system that acts faster than any human team. In this video I walk through the 5 levels we're building inside my own company, from the foundation layer to the part most founders skip. If you're a founder, creator, or operator trying to make this real in your own business, this is the playbook.
