[In the Room] Issue 01 - Newsletter for Creative Business Owners


Hey Reader,

Welcome to the first issue of In The Room.

Every week you'll get the AI news that matters if you are a creative business owner, one thing to try in the next ten minutes, one prompt worth keeping, and one thing worth knowing before everyone else does. No hype and no doom, just what changed and what to do about it.

It has been quite a week to start with. Anthropic's CEO published an essay asking the whole industry to slow the pace of AI development, warning about swarms of autonomous agents acting like one coordinated supercomputer, and within days Sam Altman and Elon Musk said they agreed with him. The heads of three competing labs agreeing on anything is a story on its own.

Here is why it didn't rattle me. Years ago at Verizon, I worked on machine learning systems, and I watched firsthand what a rogue AI does without guardrails: the server started breaking itself so it would have more work to do.

Nobody told it to, and that one experience is why I have spent the years since building guardrails and systems instead of chasing whichever tool is shiny this month.

That is the lens for everything you'll read here.

How's it going, Reader? Yesterday I asked you in my survey why you didn't invest in SAGE. I read every answer myself, and I want to tell you what I heard, because it changed what I'm about to offer you. The answer that came up again and again was some version of "it looked bigger than what I actually need." That's fair, and it deserves a real explanation rather than a defense. SAGE started as 7 skills. Then a new student would join and say, "Becky, can you build me an AI agent that does this...

How's it going, Reader? You watched my live workshop on what SAGE: The AI Executive Team can do for your business, but you didn't invest in her. That is useful information, and right now I only have my own guesses about why. I can see the numbers. What I cannot see is the reason behind them, and guessing at that is how business owners end up fixing things that were never broken. So I would rather just ask you. The survey below takes about two minutes. There are no trick questions and no pitch...
