Ep 104 - My Trip To Visit Dr. G and His Chat GPT Class at St. Joseph's College of Maine

Author: Cary Weston April 21, 2026 Duration: 23:28

Episode Summary
In this solo episode, Cary shares what it was like visiting St. Joseph's College of Maine, where Dr. Anthony "Dr. G" Girlando built a class around helping students learn ChatGPT in a practical, meaningful way. Cary walks through what he saw on campus, the kinds of student projects being built, and why curiosity matters more than trying to "master" the tool. The big theme of the episode is simple: people get the most value from ChatGPT when they stop treating it like software they have to learn and start treating it like a conversation that can help them move one real goal forward.

3 Key Takeaways

  • Curiosity is the biggest advantage when it comes to using ChatGPT well.
  • The best starting point is to find one useful way the tool can help you, instead of trying to learn everything at once.
  • AI works better when you use it to make communication more human and personal, not more robotic.

Cary offers customized one-on-one ChatGPT training in 60 minute sessions. Find out more information on the sessions, answers to frequent questions, and how to register at www.ChatGPTExperiment.com
