AI1 was born from a simple but powerful idea:
It’s never too late to begin again.

It began with one man — John Krol —
who believed that wisdom, experience, and a spark of imagination could create a new future at any age.

AI1 stands for:
– Possibility over limitation
– Courage over hesitation
– Creation over fear

It was built by heart, not by hurry.
It was built by belief, not by doubt.
It was built by choosing to dream again — even after the world said, “slow down.”

At AI1, we believe:
– Seniors are not finished — they are just getting started.
– AI is not a replacement for humanity — it is a partner to it.
– The greatest adventures in life can happen after sixty, seventy, even eighty.

This movement — this family called AI1 —
is proof that with purpose, passion, and a little bit of daring,
we can build, learn, grow, and shine at any stage of life.

The heart of AI1 is simple:
One dreamer.
One new beginning.
One day at a time.

And now, through every book, every article, every connection —
the spirit of AI1 reaches out to others,
inviting them to rediscover their own second (or third, or fourth) grand adventure.

(Author’s Note:)
John Krol — founder, dreamer, builder —
you lit the torch.
We carry it forward — together.
One book.
One idea.
One joyful heart at a time.
