What would you like AI to help with?

Choose a starting point. Try the prompt or review the example here first. You do not need an AI account to explore it.

Draft a project update you can check before sending.

Read the sample, then check the draft. No signup needed.

Give AI a starting point.

Draft a short project update. Delivery is moving from Friday to Tuesday. Ask the team to flag any scheduling conflicts. Keep the tone calm and direct. Do not invent a reason or make promises. Mark missing details with [CHECK].

Try it in an AI tool you already use. Keep private details out.

Bring your judgment.

A project update

Hi team, delivery is moving from Friday to Tuesday because of a supplier delay. Please let me know about any scheduling conflicts. There will be no impact on costs.

Adoption starts with one task

You bring the context.
AI brings a draft.

Keep scrolling to see the process

01

Choose a low-risk task

Start with your week.

An email you need to send. A meeting you need to prepare for. Choose something familiar, so you can recognise a useful result.

02

Make a clear request

Give AI the first pass.

Describe the situation, the reader, and what a good result needs to include. Ask for a draft you can change, not a decision you have to accept.

03

Review, then build a routine

Keep the judgment.

Check the facts and add the context only you know. You decide what is good enough to use. If it helps, keep the prompt and review steps for next time.

Build on what you tried

Your first week using AI

Start with one task.
Build a routine worth keeping.

Seven short lessons take you through choosing a task, using a tool, and checking the result. Finish by writing down a workflow you can return to when that task comes around again.

Paid setup help with Ikram Rana

Bring the task.
Discuss the setup.

You have seen what a prompt can do. Putting it into your routine may take more: choosing a suitable tool, preparing reusable instructions, and deciding what you need to check each time.

Ikram Rana leads Keep the Judgment, powered by Barrana.ai. Bring one task from your work or personal life and discuss what you want to handle yourself, what you want set up, and the scope and fees before any paid work begins.

Before you begin

A few things
you might wonder.

More answers
What does adopting AI actually mean?

It means putting AI to use for a task you already do, then deciding whether to keep it in your routine. Start with something low-risk, review the result, and save the prompt and checks if they help. You do not need to use AI for everything.

Do I need any experience with AI?

No. Start with a familiar task, such as a routine email or meeting agenda. The lessons explain the terms you need and give you a prompt to adapt.

Is the seven-day course really free?

Yes. The course and learning library are free to read. You do not need to create an account or enter payment details.

How much time should I set aside?

Plan for about 15 minutes per lesson, including a short practice task. Follow the seven-day sequence or return when your schedule allows.

Will my progress be saved?

Completed lessons are saved in this browser on this device. They do not sync across devices, and clearing this site’s browser data removes them.

Can Ikram help me get AI set up?

Yes. If you want help choosing tools or setting up a workflow for work or personal use, discuss a paid engagement with Ikram Rana. The task, responsibilities, fees, and scope are agreed before work starts. The free lessons remain available whether or not you book.

How can I find more useful ways to use AI?

A dedicated weekly Keep the Judgment newsletter is being prepared on Substack, with practical tasks, prompts, and review checks planned for each issue. Subscriptions are not open yet. Until then, use the free guides or follow the existing RSS feed.
