Ep. 012 | Something Big Is Happening: What To Do About It

Last episode we broke down the reality of where AI is right now. This episode is about what you actually do about it.

Drawing from Matt Shumer's viral article and Michael's real-world experience building with AI every day, we lay out a practical playbook: from killing the "I tried AI and it wasn't good" excuse, to the specific steps that will put you ahead of 99% of people around you.

We cover:
• Why judging AI by the free version is like evaluating smartphones with a flip phone
• The 50% prediction — which jobs are most exposed and why this wave is different
• 5 things to do right now: use AI seriously, drop the ego, get financially resilient, lean into what's hardest to replace, rethink what you tell your kids
• The opportunity side: barriers to building are gone — Michael built FieldScribe with AI tools
• The one-hour-a-day challenge that puts you ahead of almost everyone
• Why adaptability beats expertise in a world that changes every few months

The window where being early is an advantage won't stay open long. This episode tells you how to use it.
