While I'm putting the final touches on my homeschool site, a net new idea for another application that solves a real world problem for my family dawned on me in a car-ride conversation with my husband. And immediately, I began crafting my prompt. I began with the same project framework that I used for the homeschool site. I began to remember the areas I struggled with troubleshooting with my homeschool site, and prepared my prompts and edits based on that experience. I felt like I was not just building something useful, but also like I was making something.
I think back to even just 6 months ago when I made the wild decision to take the AWS Generative AI Developer Professional exam, and how much I thought of myself as someone who's made a choice in life to be a builder...someone who was given someone else's idea to make reality. But I never thought that decision would lead me to start to unlock my own ideas. Now...the thoughts that in the past were just fading ideas, have a real opportunity to exist. Even with how busy and full my life is already.
I've always been someone who wants more and enjoys responsibility and accountability for that matter. But somehow, I think I'm finding the positive momentum in agentic AI adoption. Maybe it's because I spent hours of invested time to gain understanding of the capabilities up front. Or maybe it's just it's the season of life I'm in where I don't have a lot of resources like time, emotional capacity or money (raising kids is expensive), so creativity really picks up to try to fill in some of the gaps. Whatever it is, I'm grateful for the God given ability to think for myself and have something to help bring those creative, positive thoughts to reality.
