Why Subscribe?

You’ve tried AI. You’ve seen it do impressive things. But you still don’t trust it with anything important.

You’re not behind. You’re just missing the system.

This newsletter helps you build real AI fluency. The kind where you stop guessing and start executing. No hype. No “10 prompts that will change your life.” Just tested techniques and honest takes on what actually works.


What You Get

  • 2-3 posts per week. Lessons, prompts, workflows, and perspective on AI news that matters.

  • Tactical breakdowns of techniques I’ve tested, with honest notes on what worked and what didn’t.

  • A system, not a feed. Everything here goes through the same quality process I use for clients who pay thousands for AI training.


Who Writes This

I’m Dan Powers. I spent 25 years building IT systems where guessing wasn’t an option and downtime cost six figures. When AI showed up, I didn’t see magic. I saw infrastructure that needed to be built.

I started Quandary Labs because I kept watching organizations license tools, run training once, and hope results followed. They didn’t. The problem was never the tools. It was the missing system around them.

I write like I build: tested, validated, no bullsh*t. I grew up in the Midwest, which means I don’t gatekeep and I don’t waste your time.


This Is For You If

  • You use AI but can’t trust it yet

  • You’re tired of tutorials that don’t connect to real work

  • You want to get actually good at this, not just keep experimenting
