Professionals are building custom tools in a single conversation..
Hey there.
A growing number of early adopters—like members of The Rundown AI University—are saving up to 40% of their time by generating code with AI.
And most of them aren’t even developers.
Recent developments in AI-generated code have completely changed what’s possible.
Now, people with zero coding experience are building working apps in 45 minutes, creating automated report generators over lunch breaks, and launching custom tools that would have cost thousands to outsource.
If you're curious about what's possible (and how to get started), here's what you need to know:
Everyone can generate code (including you)
The traditional barrier to coding was the steep learning curve.
Before AI tools you needed to understand complex languages, rules, and techniques just to build the simplest applications. Most professionals didn't have the time to develop these specialized skills alongside their main work.
Now, AI coding assistants can:
Translate plain English instructions into functional code
Handle the complex technical details automatically
Fix errors and suggest improvements in real-time
Create original solutions from simple descriptions
Even if you’re not very technical, it’s now possible to go from concept to reality without spending months troubleshooting thousands of lines of code..
AI-generated code is an investment that pays off
Early adopters are making the most of this opportunity and developing internal tools, creating new offerings for their clients, and building automated workflows that free up hours of productive time each week.
Non-technical professionals are now building:
Resume parsers that filter job applications using AI text analysis
Expense trackers that organize and categorize spending automatically
Social media sentiment dashboards
Interview companions
Customer service chatbots trained on company documentation
Automated reporting tools that pull data from multiple sources
Custom data visualization dashboards for specific business needs
And with 70% of employers now prioritizing applicants who use different AI tools, learning to code with AI helps you stand out in the job market, too.
Coding is a part of your new job description
While coding may not be in your current job description, solving problems certainly is.
Every role faces challenges that could be addressed with custom solutions—whether it's analyzing customer feedback, automating report generation, or visualizing complex data.
AI-powered coding bridges the gap between identifying these problems and implementing solutions, without requiring you to become a programmer.
But, after you’ve begun, there will still be questions, like:
How do you move from basic scripts to fully functional applications?
What's the best way to debug when things don't work?
Which AI tool is best for your specific needs?
How do you deploy what you've built so others can use it?
How do you monetize it?
Your next steps should help you become more capable of working with AI as your coding partner by helping you overcome the most common hurdles.
And that's exactly what our upcoming workshop is for…
This Friday at 3:30 PM EST, Dr. Alvaro Cintas is teaching our members how to:
Get started with AI-assisted coding, even with zero experience
Navigate the best AI coding tools (ChatGPT, Claude, and more) and leverage each one effectively
Apply advanced strategies for learning, debugging, and writing code with AI
Showing up live means you can ask specific questions about your unique use case and get personalized guidance from our team. But, if you can’t make it at that time, you can watch the recording anytime to implement the same practical techniques.
Either way, by the end of the workshop, you'll be able to confidently use AI for coding — whether you're just starting out or you’re looking to level up your skills.
See you in class,
Rowan & The Rundown Team
P.S. Not sure if coding is for you? Think about a repetitive part of your job that you’d like to automate. If you're curious enough to see how AI could tackle it, join the workshop (and ask our team directly) with a 14-day trial here.
