Unlock the ability to build AI tools without coding experience as Justin Borge joins Tool Use to demonstrate how he built Helios, a personal management system, using only LLMs like Gemini and Claude. Justin breaks down his transition from marketer to growth engineer, sharing his exact workflows for using JSON documentation to give AI a perfect memory of his business and goals. He reveals his unique "bullying" strategy for debugging code using persona-based prompts and explains how he created a human-in-the-loop system to safely edit local files without hallucinations. This conversation covers everything from writing your first Python script to mastering meta-prompting for maximum productivity.
