In this hands-on episode, Corey and Grant attempt to build three different AI apps in one hour using Google AI Studio - with zero coding experience required. They create an Inbox Zero email organizer, a meme generator that roasts their photos, and a spontaneous adventure planner with interactive maps. Watch as they navigate errors, discover workarounds, and prove that anyone can build functional AI apps without being a developer.Subscribe to The Neuron newsletter: https://theneuron.aiOriginal article: https://www.theneuron.ai/newsletter/googles-ai-makes-you-appsRead more: https://www.theneuron.ai/explainer-articles/how-to-build-an-ai-agent-part-one-testing-googles-firebase-studio-ai-agent-builderGoogle AI Studio: https://aistudio.google.comNoCodeMBA Tutorial: https://youtu.be/ANth52yyr9U?si=L9iT1-eYgB8nOfrgAlternative builders mentioned:- Lovable: https://lovable.dev- Claude Artifacts: https://claude.ai- V0 by Vercel: https://v0.dev- Bolt.new: https://bolt.new
Full Episode
So what if you could build an entire AI app before your latte cools down? Today, we're going to put that to the test. We're going to build three apps in one hour, zero headache. Welcome, humans. I'm Corey, joined as always here on the Neuron podcast by the ever-curious Grant Harvey. How's it going, Grant?
Good, Corey. How are you doing today?
Good, good. Doing well. Kind of excited about our little challenge here today. So we're going to strap on our dev goggles, which you should know I don't own. I am not a developer. I'm not a software engineer. But we're going to make this happen anyways. And we're going to dive into Google AI Studios App Builder to see if we can whip up three very different apps.
A practical one that has reasonable needs, a fun one, and one that's just kind of off the rails. So all in one episode in one hour. Grant, you want to talk a little about AI Studio? Kind of explain what it is and how it works?
Yeah, definitely. So AI Studio is Google's, you could call it its studio for AI app builders.
Like the playground on OpenAI, kind of.
Exactly. So if anyone's ever used the Playground or done anything with APIs at all with OpenAI, this AI Studio is basically Google's equivalent version of the Playground. So what that means is that you can go to AI Studio for free and test prompts and do a whole lot more than that to see how it will react in an actual environment and
if you wanted to then go and deploy that prompt or even an application in production. So does that make sense?
That makes a lot of sense. And it's pretty crazy. I think for me, you know, I saw a lot of the early apps, you know, when Cursor and Replit and all these were dropping, it was all really interesting. But like, you know, and people said, you know, you can do this with no coding experience. Yeah, you kind of could. But it wasn't necessarily good, and it was really intimidating.
