Own the parking lot.
I saw a guy outside the biggest, nicest house in my neighborhood, so I said hi and asked what he does for a living. Turned out to be a good business lesson.
He told me he used to own a bunch of restaurants in Austin. Then he said, almost like it was boring, that he never really made money on the restaurants. He made his money on the parking lots.
What? Excuse me!

It's not sexy to say, but most of AI transformation has nothing to do with AI.

Most people can't actually explain what AI is to a friend/coworker.
Take a page from Dr. Seuss (trust me) & you'll be set.
When someone asks me "how does ChatGPT actually work?" I used to reach for words like "pre-training," "back propagation" and "transformers." And I'd watch their eyes glaze over (understandably) in real time.
So now I just say this:

I have a friend with a $50M stock portfolio.
I’m jealous of him. We’ve had roughly the same time horizon. He put his energy into picking stocks, I put mine into AppSumo and indexing on the side. His returns have absolutely crushed mine. Not even close.
And every time we talk about it, the same thing happens. I get this itch. Maybe I should make some trades. Maybe I should pick a few names and try to catch up. Nothing crazy, just some moves to juice my returns.
Then I actually asked him how he does it.

Why now
