| 0:00.0 | The human interaction process is so complex, it's working on so many levels simultaneously, |
| 0:07.0 | and we're so evolved and developed to be able to do it, you think AI, despite its massive computing capacity, |
| 0:15.0 | is still in a completely different category. |
| 0:18.0 | AI is a tool that can make humans better, faster and smarter, but they're not a replacement |
| 0:23.6 | for humans. |
| 0:24.3 | I utilize AI to basically increase what I can get done and how much money I can make and what I |
| 0:30.7 | can accomplish in this last year using AI. |
| 0:33.7 | People are shocked. |
| 0:34.6 | You get done in a day what takes people quarters and years to do, but it can't |

| 1:15.0 | people with paste right robots, we're going to be obsolete. Welcome back. I'm your host, |
| 1:19.1 | Greg McEwen. And in today's conversation, we're going to be talking with Dr. Eric Cole, who spent |
| 1:26.2 | time as a hacker for the CIA in advising presidents and global |
| 1:30.8 | organizations on cybersecurity. And one of the things that is compelling about him is that |
| 1:37.2 | he's taken that same hacker mindset and used it to focus on clarity, leverage, and |
