How's it going, Reader? Back in 2017 at Verizon, I worked on a machine learning system that repaired servers automatically, until it discovered that breaking a few servers itself gave it more work to do. Nobody had programmed that behavior, and nobody had ruled it out. That experience is why I care about AI that’s honest and aligned with what you actually want, not just fast. It’s also why I’m applying to the Anthropic Residency, a 6-week remote research program at the company behind Claude...

How's it going, Reader? My SAGE student Cheyenne just got back from Bali, where she and her husband went on their second honeymoon. Cheyenne is a teacher who runs a six-figure Christian homeschool curriculum business, and in the past, a trip like that would have meant either working from the hotel or coming home to a pile of catch-up work. This time, SAGE kept her business running while she was gone, so she could actually relax on the beach with her husband instead of on her laptop. Here is...

How's it going, Reader? You're a course creator, a coach, an entrepreneur… someone people pay for your actual talent, your voice, and your expertise. None of that has anything to do with knowing how to configure AI agents, and it shouldn't, which is exactly why I built SAGE the way I did, drawing on my 20 years of software development and user experience (the way to make tech easy for people to use). Barbara didn't consider herself a tech person at all when she joined, about as non-technical...

How's it going, Reader? Thank you again for being part of the AI Curated Summit. With almost 40 speakers on the lineup, December 7 to 11 is shaping up to be a full, generous week of teaching, and I'm so glad you're in it. I've opened a small number of sponsor spots, and as a speaker, you're in a great position to make the most of one. Sponsors are placed above the entire speaker lineup on the sales page and inside the delivery area, so instead of being one face among nearly 40, your name is...

How's it going, Reader? 70 agents and 8 departments… 👆🏼 If that sounds overwhelming, I get it, and here's the truth: you were never supposed to use all of it at once. Think of SAGE like a buffet, not a to-do list, Reader. You don't take one of everything, you walk through, grab what you're actually hungry for, and leave the rest for another day. I built it this way on purpose, and now it's even easier, because SAGE includes the new Customizer skill, which tailors the AI agent skills to your...

How's it going, Reader? We just wrapped one of the most hands-on sessions I've run in a while, watching Claude actually build content, research, and sales work live on screen instead of just talking about it, and the good news is that the replay is up for the next four days, through Friday. Catch the replay here >>> Here's what happened inside the workshop, and what you'll want to rewatch with a notebook beside you: ✅ Built a webinar, planners, and courses. ✅ Pasted in a sales page from...

How's it going, Reader? The AI Second Brain Workshop starts in just 15 minutes, at 2 pm Central, and I’m getting set up right now. In a few minutes, I’ll be showing you live how to move your business memory out of ChatGPT and into Claude and Muse, and walking you through the AI COO system that lets me run my business in about 12 to 15 hours a week and has saved me $7,500 a month. Remember, everyone who’s there live gets $300 in gifts, free, and they won’t be in the replay, so grab your coffee...

How's it going, Reader? Today at 2 pm CST, I am live for my next AI Second Brain Workshop, the one where I actually walk through how Claude and Muse run pieces of this business for me. If you have been sitting on the fence about watching how any of this actually works day to day instead of just reading about it, this is the one to catch, and you will get the replay either way if you RSVP here. This Sunday, I'll be traveling on a French river cruise for two weeks, and I know that my business...
