“Everyone talks about AI. The grandkids swipe away on their phones, and you’re told to ‘just ask ChatGPT’?”
You are not too old for this. You just never had a good teacher.
The 28-day course
1
What a chatbot is, your first question, and how to tell when AI is talking nonsense.
After day 1: your first prompt worked.
2
Letters and emails, trip plans, recipes. And turning official jargon into plain English.
After week 2: letters in half the time.
3
Generate images, improve photos, create a story for the grandkids.
After week 3: your first own project.
4
Spot AI scams, set up AI on your own phone, final project with certificate.
After week 4: you do this on your own.
AI can imitate voices today, even your family’s. We show you how to recognise voice-cloning calls, fake emails and phishing with confidence. So you can use AI without anyone using AI against you.
Every lesson is a set of short cards: read, tap, try it out. 15 minutes a day is enough.
Every lesson also comes as audio. Like a podcast, at ease on the sofa.
You practise directly with ChatGPT & co. With guides that match your device.

Waitlist
The course launches in autumn 2026. Waitlist members get the founder price and learn first. No commitment: you decide at launch.
I’m Andre Classen, a founder from Germany, now at home in Ireland. I’ve watched my parents’ generation get fobbed off with subscription traps and tech jargon in AI courses. Adalume is the opposite: clear, honest, with a price that has no asterisk.
When you write to me, I reply. Not a chatbot pretending to.
No. If you can use WhatsApp or email, that’s plenty. We start at the very beginning, without jargon.
Phone, tablet or computer. Whatever you prefer. The guides match your device.
Exactly what it says above. No hidden costs, no add-on bundles. Waitlist members get the founder price.
