The best way to develop your AI skills is by building projects. However, for busy professionals and leaders, finding time to sit down and actually code projects can be a challenge. Here, I share 5 AI projects you can build in an hour (or less) at three levels of sophistication. For each idea, I share step-by-step instructions and example code to help you get started.

AI gives us back our most valuable resource: time. This comes from automating and expediting tasks that might otherwise take us hours to complete.

For coders, the best way to tap into this is by using tools like ChatGPT, Cursor, or Co-pilot to help you write code faster. These tools have compressed my “afternoon projects” into something I can knock out in an hour or less.

Here I share 5 projects I’ve built in less than an hour. You can take these projects and use them directly or (even better) use them as inspiration for automating tasks that you do repeatedly.
