The Brutal Truth About AI (What It Means For You)
|
Hey Reader, AI just replaced me... and I helped it happen. You can listen to this email here (like a mini podcast). This week, I've maybe done too much with AI. I've trained my own image models. Created videos from AI images. Tricked my wife with a clone of my voice. In fact, the audio link in the beginning is my AI voice. And I've got bad news. You've probably heard this before... AI won't replace you, but someone using AI will. This isn't just clickbait. It's happening right now. Don't listen to anyone saying AI is slowing down. It's not. In fact, OpenAI (= ChatGPT) just announced they'll soon offer virtual employees. They price them on perceived IQ:
I'm not trying to scare you (ok, maybe a little). But if you don't catch up fast, things will become overwhelming fast. I've lived through several seismic shifts in my life:
And I'm telling you: AI will have the same impact (!). It's easy to feel tired of all the AI hype. So much bullshit out there. But rejecting or ignoring it, or just not putting in the needed work, won't help you. I'm not even talking about you getting replaced. It's much worse. You might be giving up on the opportunity of your life to make REAL money. Success in the AI era isn't about fighting the inevitable. It's about embracing it before everyone else does.
In 2025, we're projected to cross over from the Early Adopters to Early Majority. But I call bullshit on this, because this is just basic AI use (think: ChatGPT). In reality, what I have learned this week is that there's so much AI that not even 1% of the world uses. We're EARLY, and while others whine about AI, others build and make MONEY. Don't be on the wrong side of history.

Hey Reader, Last week, the AI world was freaking out. OpenAI bought Windsurf, cue the chaos. "OpenAI will kill off every other model!""Google’s done!""This is the AI apocalypse!" But here's what no one’s telling you. It’s all noise. What Really Happened Yes, OpenAI did buy Windsurf (for $3B, btw). And yeah, Gemini’s been extremely slow on it. But that’s actually on Google, not Windsurf. Gemini 2.5 Pro’s been unstable everywhere. Especially since the update to it a week ago. Sometimes it...
Hey Reader, Yesterday, I realized I've been giving some of you the wrong advice. I've been pushing tools like Cursor and Windsurf as the "best option" for building your app. But here's my mistake: you might not actually need them. No-Code tools like Lovable could be the better choice. But what should you choose? When NO-CODE Beats AI Coding Tools If you're building any of these 3 things... 1️⃣ A landing page or mini website (like a link-in-bio or newsletter page) 2️⃣ A simple app with basic...
Hey Reader, I’ve been hiding something from you. The emails you’ve been reading every week… not mine. I’ve secretly been using AI as my personal copywriter, and nobody noticed. But here’s the craziest part. I only spend 15 minutes writing them each week. And I think you should too. Here’s how. My AI Newsletter Framework I used to spend hours (no joke) writing these emails. Now, I use Claude (the best AI for writing in my opinion) to semi-automate them instead. Not only do I save a ton of...
