What is ROBOTS ATE MY HOMEWORK?
The internet is a massive costume party, and everyone is wearing the same five marketing playbooks. It's filled with generic AI advice, recycled growth hacks, and checklists that sound smart but don't actually move the needle.
This is the antidote.
It's a weekly field guide for founders, marketers, and builders who want to use the incredible power of AI without thinking like a robot.
This is your lab for ditching the playbooks and building your own damn machine; one that actually drives growth, saves you time, and gives you a competitive edge.
What You Get In Your Inbox Every Week
Every edition is a tight, actionable dispatch that you can read in under 15 minutes, broken into three parts:
1. 🤖 ROBOT REPORT CARD. This is the main event. Tactical, in-the-trenches breakdowns of specific marketing workflows, rebuilt for the AI era. We'll tear down old methods and design new systems for everything from customer acquisition to content repurposing, using insights from my work building Yahini and from other brilliant founders and marketers in the field.
2. 💡 A NEW CONCEPT FOR YOU. One powerful idea, mental model, or framework designed to rewire how you see the market. This is the 2-minute strategic insight that will change how you approach your work for the rest of the week.
3. ✨ ONE MORE THING... Your unfair advantage. A single, high-impact AI tool I'm loving, a killer prompt you can steal, a workflow hack, or a must-read article. It's the one thing you'll want to immediately share with your team.
And Who's The Chief Robot?
That's me, Maria-Cristina (but you can call me Mia).
My day job is being the co-founder of Yahini, an AI company where I'm literally teaching robots how to be better assistants.
My other job is running this newsletter, where I teach humans how not to think like them.
This space is where I document everything I’m learning: the successes, the glorious failures, and the workflows we're building to grow our own AI company. My mission is simple: to help you use the tools, without ever becoming one.
Ready to stop letting the robots have all the fun?
