00:00:00.000 I don't wanna become dependent on AI and lose my skills.
00:00:03.100 I use AI for $5 tasks so that I have the time
00:00:05.960 to work on like $500 tasks
00:00:07.600 so I'm not wasting my brain power
00:00:09.060 doing stuff that I don't need to do.
00:00:10.440 Free versions suck and the paid ones are way too expensive.
00:00:13.580 My AI subscription costs me like 20 or 30 a month.
00:00:15.940 It saves me thousands.
00:00:17.300 It's like the best ROI in my business.
00:00:19.060 I've tried it a few times
00:00:20.280 and honestly, I just got garbage results.
00:00:22.440 Your output is only as good as your input
00:00:24.420 and I've just learned how to prompt it better
00:00:26.320 so that all my outputs get better over time.
00:00:28.560 It takes way too long to set everything up.
00:00:31.120 I spent one afternoon setting everything up.
00:00:33.180 Now I've saved 15 hours a week.
00:00:34.980 That's like getting two months of my life back every year.
00:00:37.480 Now I'm really afraid that AI is going to take my job.
00:00:40.040 AI is not going to take your job.
00:00:41.540 Somebody using AI will.
00:00:43.140 So I'd rather get better at AI so I don't have somebody else take my job.
00:00:46.280 I just don't have all the time to learn all this AI techie stuff.
00:00:49.860 It's way easier than you think.
00:00:51.180 If you just watch Dan Martel's videos, he breaks it down step by step.
00:00:54.460 He actually has this great video on mastering AI.
00:00:56.140 If you want the link, just comment MasterAI below
00:00:58.660 and I'll send the link over.
