๐ Hey DEV Community, Iโm Starting My Public Journey
Today, Iโm kicking off a public challenge to become a Generative AI Generalist in 21 days โ using only free tools and zero manual coding.
My goal is clear:
๐ Land a job or freelance role in Generative AI by May 16, 2025
๐ Build public proof of skills without any certificates or paid courses
๐ What Iโm Using:
AI coding tools like Trae, Replit, Cursor
Free LLM APIs like OpenRouter, DeepInfra
Frontend tools like Gradio + Google Colab
No-code / low-code workflows
My laptop, good internet, and consistency
๐
What Iโll Be Posting Here on DEV.to:
Every day, Iโll share:
๐ Post Type ๐ What Youโll See
AI Project Breakdowns Step-by-step of tools I build using free LLMs
Prompt Engineering Prompts that run full workflows
Tool Reviews How I use Trae, Cursor, Hugging Face, etc.
Learnings Wins, mistakes, and lessons from building in public
๐ฅ Why Iโm Doing This:
Because skills speak louder than certificates.
Because public proof builds trust.
Because I want to show that anyone can break into AI โ without a CS degree or tech background โ if they focus and build.
๐ Letโs Connect (Iโm sharing across all platforms):
X / Twitter, LinkedIn, GitHub
Letโs build this in public.
21 days.
No certificates.
Just AI + Proof of Work.
Iโm ready.
