Hello Reader, This year, I’m pivoting my business to teaching Generative AI.
“The best way to drive AI adoption is by marrying domain knowledge with foundational AI training. Generalist skills, creativity, and technical integration are more critical than deep specialization in today’s AI-driven world.”
- Bhavesh Dayali, Chief AI Officer, S&P Global
Marketing is being disrupted by AI, and there are a lot of out-of-work marketers competing for fewer and fewer gigs. I can see why people are hesitant to invest in marketing - if you can have robots do the same work for a fraction of the cost and time, why pay a human marketer? But the gap is…how do you replace a marketer, if you don’t know how to use GenAI proficiently yet? Farmers did not go obsolete with the invention of the tractor, and mathematicians did not disappear after the calculator. But there are fewer of those jobs, and the ones who survive are the ones most adept at using the new tools. I’m going to start writing to you weekly about these new tools, and provide the same sorts of practical edutainment you’ve seen from me in the past. Expect worksheets and videos you can use to upskill yourself with GenAI, along with a newly rebranded newsletter. Teaching, creating, and performing is what I most love to do, so pivoting to a teaching-based business model feels right to me. Stay tuned! I’d love to hear your feedback on my progress as I grow. Right now, I'm most interested to know: how are you using Generative AI in your work? What tools do you like, or what challenges do you face? Hit reply, I'm all ears. |
Generative AI improves your Productivity, Creativity, and Strategy - but only if you build the GenAI Habit. Learning how to incorporate GenAI Training into your day will help knowledge workers prepare for the future of work.

The program aims to accelerate scientific discovery by combining artificial intelligence with large federal research datasets. The effort will apply Ai systems to data from agencies including NASA, the National...
‽ "Only one thing is impossible for God: to find any sense in any copyright law on the planet." - Mark Twain Hello Reader, If you've tried to make an AI-generated image with Mickey Mouse or The X-Men, you've hit the copyright guardrails. Content violations are a moving target, and it takes just as much luck as prompting skill to try and evade these guardrails. You may be aware that Steamboat Willie (an early iteration of Mickey mouse) recently entered the Public Domain, which lifts some of...
