I used to check slides the hard way - clicking every object, eyeballing every font, hoping I'd catch what my eyes kept missing. Then I wrote a script to do it for me. My first reaction was: oh shit, that actually worked. What happened after I ran it four more times is the part nobody talks about.

I'm not a developer. I don't know how to write code. I've never taken a programming class. And yet I've built automated tools that saved me hours every week — by doing exactly one thing: describing the problem to an AI and letting it build the solution.
