Welcome to this week’s AI Ally!
Why 2025 Belonged to the Humans
Hey team, Tanqueray here. If 2025 was the year of "What is a prompt?", then 2026 will be the year we stop asking questions and start giving orders. We will officially move past AI Literacy and entered the era of AI Mastery.
But Mastery isn't just about technical speed; it’s about context. This past year, I committed to a personal journey: 52 weeks of uncovering and sharing Black History from across Charleston, SC, and beyond. I spent every week digging into the innovations of the past—from the ironwork of Philip Simmons to Gullah Geechee navigation. What I realized is that AI is just the latest tool in a long line of human attempts to scale brilliance. Innovation is in our DNA, and we are using these new tools to honor that legacy.
