0:03.0

I mean, would you do business with anybody who didn't have the internet right now?

0:06.0

No. Will you hire anybody that doesn't know AI? Probably not. We'd never had something move so exponential. Like we've come in, it was the printing press, and then electricity and all the internet came in FedEx and fax machines and the evolution. But all of them kind of had this sweep and the way it it's moving now, we're not used to it, and it's disturbing. He is a multiple New York Times bestselling author, and he spent decades teaching people how to find opportunity in the middle of chaos. We have the inspiring Dean Grasiosi back in the house.
