Week06Leverage
The Life Starter 8-Week Program

Use AI without outsourcing judgment

Create one reusable, privacy-aware AI workflow that improves real work and includes verification.

0 of 6 lessons complete
This week, you will

Choose tasks where AI is useful and risk is manageable.

Write instructions with context, constraints, and a quality bar.

Verify claims and protect sensitive information.

Why this week exists

Develop AI literacy as an accountable work process, not prompt memorization. The project makes task choice, privacy, verification, and human responsibility inspectable.

Project steps

Do the work in this order

  1. 01

    Choose a low-risk, repeatable task with a clear human owner.

  2. 02

    Define allowed inputs, protected data, constraints, and the quality standard before prompting.

  3. 03

    Run the workflow on a fresh example and log every source or calculation that requires verification.

  4. 04

    Insert one deliberately flawed output and confirm the stated control catches it.

Ready when

The learner catches the seeded failure, verifies material claims outside the model, and can state who owns the final decision.

Weekly project

Verified AI work recipe

Not started

A reusable workflow with inputs, instructions, checkpoints, sources, and a human approval step.

What to complete

Describe the task, acceptable inputs, protected data, prompt or instructions, decomposition steps, verification method, failure conditions, and final human decision.

Four-part quality check

Task and quality bar are specific

Sensitive data is excluded

Important claims are independently checked

A person owns the final decision
