šŸ” Good thing I waited

I was preparing to launch a new workshop series this month, focused on building AI Agents. I wanted a simple drag-and-drop builder that non-coders could use, and I was comparing Lindy, Make, and Zapier when I decided to put the whole thing on pause and launch the AI F.A.S.T. Class instead.

Now I am playing with AgentKit by OpenAI, and I think this could be the tool I use for my new Agentic training workshops.

I’ll launch them in the coming months, stay tuned to learn Agentic AI!
