WHAT AI CAN DO FOR YOU NOW

Next came the fear, with people claiming that AI would replace everyone. Then came the scramble, as seemingly every company raced (often clumsily) to integrate AI into their products.

And now, finally, we've arrived at the best part: reality.

The reality is this: AI can't do everything, it won't replace everyone, and you cannot rush it. But you can use it-with excellent results. Because as entrepreneurs are finding out, AI is great at improving your workflow, speeding up your tasks, catching your errors, and many other applications. There's also a wide range of useful, practical, under-the-radar, Al-powered products and services out there.

That's why we started calling entrepreneurs with a simple question: How are you using AI right now, and how is it helping you? On the following pages, you'll see their answers-along with some insights to help you assess the real value (and future opportunities!) of AI.

AI IMPROVES PEOPLE

Your team can use AI to improve focus, communication, training, and more. Here's how to get started.

It's easy to forget that on the day ChatGPT came out, we all basically woke up with superpowers. Now anyone can code, create images, write faster, make videos, better understand human behavior, and learn about any topic under the sun. This is incredibly valuable for businesses.

Everyone's talking about artificial intelligence, but few are taking advantage of it. I believe that entrepreneurs who incorporate AI tools into their businesses are going to reap significant rewards over the long run. AI will help you develop new products, make better decisions, and build better businesses with less capital.
