In this audio only episode, we covered a lot of different topics - it was essentially 2 podcast episodes in one as Mel and I had a chat.

* What Claude and AI watermarking is and what to do now that AI watermarking could mean lower reach in the social media algorithms

* The AI race to create superintelligence and why it is extremely worrying as there is a concentration of powerful in a handful of companies whose telling themselves they are the good guys but who shown historically to not be and whose revenue and power is getting towards exceeding governments.

* Plus how they are using distractions such immigration, cost of living etc to distract us so we are not focused on fighting against the fast advancement of AI and electing the leaders who will control those in control of AI

* AI Safety, self-replication and the unintended consequences that are coming straight from the mouth of the guy who was the forecaster for chatGPT.

* How social media weaponized our attention spans and how AI could weaponize connection

* Why connection and communication skills are the most powerful as AI commoditises information and how I am focusing on improving them every single day over trying to just learn more “information”.

* Why you no longer have the pressure of being the “expert” and how that helps relieve the imposter syndrome pressure

* What I am still using AI for to make my content, programs and offers better

* At the end we talked about my 2 viral posts of the week and the marketing lesson that they enforced for me
