Hands-on

Activities

Make real things — a song about your week, a site about your obsession, you as a legend.

1

A song about your week

Five things that happened to you → a real, produced song with a chorus. Yours.

You'll use: A chatbot + Suno

  1. 1Tell a chatbot five things that happened this week and the mood you want.
  2. 2Ask it to turn them into song lyrics with a chorus that repeats.
  3. 3Paste the lyrics into Suno, pick a style (lo-fi, pop-punk, whatever's you), and generate.
  4. 4Regenerate until a version gives you chills, then share it.

Starter prompt

Here are five things from my week: [list them]. Write song lyrics about them — verses plus a chorus that repeats — in a [mood] style. Keep it honest, not cheesy.

2

A one-page site about your obsession

The thing you could talk about for hours — build a real, live web page about it this afternoon.

You'll use: Lovable or v0 (vibe coding)

  1. 1Pick the thing you love most. Sharks, a band, a sport, a game — anything.
  2. 2In Lovable, describe the page: what's on it, the vibe, the colours.
  3. 3Let it build the first version, then talk to it to fix and improve — one change at a time.
  4. 4Publish it. Send the live link to someone. That's a real thing you made.

Starter prompt

Build a clean, one-page website about [your obsession]. Include a bold title, three sections about why it's amazing, and one fun interactive bit. Make it feel [the vibe you want].

3

Turn yourself into a character

Become a hero, a creature, a legend — from one sentence describing yourself.

You'll use: An image tool (then a video tool, if you're feeling it)

  1. 1Describe yourself as a character: hero, creature, anime, whatever you'd want to be.
  2. 2Generate it, then refine the prompt until it's unmistakably you-as-legend.
  3. 3Bonus: feed the image to a video tool and bring your character to life for a few seconds.

Starter prompt

A character portrait of me as [a hero / creature / etc.]: [describe your look, vibe, and powers]. Cinematic, detailed, awe-inspiring.

4

Let the AI interview YOU

Flip it around. Let it ask the questions — and watch it find a project you'd actually love to build.

You'll use: A chatbot

  1. 1Ask it to interview you — ten short questions about what you love and what bugs you.
  2. 2Answer honestly, like a real conversation.
  3. 3Then ask it to suggest three things you'd genuinely enjoy building this week, based on your answers.

Starter prompt

Interview me. Ask me ten short questions, one at a time, about what I love, what I'm curious about, and what annoys me. After I answer, suggest three projects I'd actually enjoy building.

5

Make it teach you something in 5 minutes

Something you've always wondered about — understood, properly, before your tea goes cold.

You'll use: A chatbot

  1. 1Pick something you've always quietly wondered about. How do black holes work? Why is the sky blue?
  2. 2Ask it to explain at your level, with one good analogy.
  3. 3Then ask it to quiz you with three questions — and see what actually stuck.

Starter prompt

Explain [the thing you wonder about] at a level a curious teenager would get, using one great analogy. Then quiz me with three questions to check I understood.

Build an AI presenter

Pick a character, give it a line, choose a vibe. What you get is the exact recipe that would generate it — the same way every face on this site was made.

1 · Character

2 · Its line

3 · Vibe
