Steve Silverman

Hi, I’m Steve Silverman

I’m a one-on-one AI coach. Bring me the work that eats your time, and we’ll build a tool to handle it. You’ll learn how to improve it and build more on your own.

From Flex Your Rights to AI

I’m best known for my work with Flex Your Rights, where I taught millions of people to keep their cool during police encounters. You might wonder what the heck police stops and using AI have in common.

Both topics involve powerful forces that can be confusing and intimidating. I give people clarity so they can take control of their fears and steer through uncertainty with confidence and curiosity.

A few things I’ve built with AI

I don’t know how to write code. Fortunately, that no longer matters. I dictate my ideas to Claude and ChatGPT, then test what they make until it works. If you can describe it, we can build it.

  • No more rebuilding tables by hand

    My client Liz is a professor who helps medical researchers make sense of their data. Formatting each table involved a tedious copy-paste routine that used to eat up about five hours of her week. Together, we built a custom tool that now does it in one click. Read Liz’s success story.

  • An action movie starring my nephew

    Jake, 11, dreamed up a plot with a giant gorilla, a tsunami wave, an angry narwhal, and ultimate victory. Using OpenAI’s Codex, I turned his photos into a character sheet, had ChatGPT draw each shot’s start frame, and generated the clips in Seedance. Then I edited the best takes in iMovie.

  • A chat with Sterling: it drafted a client’s call recap, Steve asks it to add a case study, and it shows the final email for his OK

    Sterling, my AI chief of staff

    My AI agent, Sterling, starts each weekday with a briefing on my inboxes, calendar, and priorities. All day, it watches everything and texts me only when something needs my attention. It drafts my follow-ups so I can edit them before sending. When I correct Sterling, it rarely forgets.

    This website and my intro video

    I built this site from scratch by dictating my ideas and edits to Claude, which is much faster than typing. I never wrote a single line of code. For my 69-second intro video, I wrote and narrated the script. Claude animated it with illustrations ChatGPT made from photos of me.

Let’s talk about what we’ll build

During our 30-minute call, here’s what I’ll ask:

  1. How are you using AI in your work right now?
  2. What repetitive computer work do you want to hand off?
  3. What would you build if you had the time and skills?
