How often have you heard experts and politicians talk about the fact that AI and automation
00:00:26.060
There is a community that's going to pay a big price for automation and AI, and I'll
00:00:30.680
get into that community here in a minute, but let me give you a complete different perspective
00:00:35.460
What if I told you automation and AI has given us thousands of hours back to do whatever
00:00:44.380
There used to be a time we would spend Sundays putting our albums together, and we'd go take
00:00:49.740
the pictures, then go to Costco or whatever store you would go to, print the pictures,
00:00:54.280
come back, buy a couple albums, spend hours putting it together.
00:00:59.660
You would need to put the tape over it, and then the kid tears your pictures.
00:01:07.720
You would write a letter to somebody, and then you really wanted to say what was on your mind.
00:01:14.020
And then you're like, I wrote a page and a half.
00:01:15.420
Then you would have to tear it apart, rewrite it.
00:01:17.140
You don't want them to see that you erase because the word can be read.
00:01:20.840
And then you have to go drive around the community, where are these blue boxes at?
00:01:25.940
And then you would get out of the car in the rain, drop it in the box, and then get back.
00:01:30.460
And finally, a week later, it gets out there, right?
00:01:44.600
And gyms would always say, oh, we didn't receive your letter of cancellation.
00:01:49.500
No, we never received your letter of cancellation.
00:01:52.620
Nowadays, you go online, you unsubscribe, you cancel, whatever you want to do, right?
00:02:00.140
Because back in the days, even TV is automation.
00:02:04.280
Great grandparents had to go to a place, drive.
00:02:07.200
You know, you didn't have AC or heater back in the days.
00:02:12.340
Now, you sit in your room, watch a show from the comfort of your bedroom, your living room.
00:02:21.060
If you chill in public, they're going to put you in prison.
00:02:26.720
How much time did I give you to you and your girl or you and your boyfriend or your husband
00:02:35.580
Oh my gosh, what if we're not going to drive cars anymore?
00:02:41.840
Planes, trains, a lot of things have been automated for a long time.
00:02:45.520
We're not panicking about that, but cars we are.
00:02:47.660
Here's the best thing about cars being automated.
00:02:52.200
If cars are automated, say you drive an hour a day.
00:03:00.840
You're driving, hopefully you're paying attention.
00:03:02.360
Maybe you can respond to a text or two when you're at a red light.
00:03:04.380
But you can't really be doing a lot of different things, right?
00:03:18.440
What are we going to do with that 400 hours that's given back to us?
00:03:25.800
We can easily use that 400 hours to watch more TV on our phone.
00:03:29.560
We can use that 400 hours to follow more sports on our phone.
00:03:35.640
We can use that 400 hours to just look at everybody's newsfeed on our phone.
00:03:40.680
Or we can use that 400 hours to buy a master class, to watch a YouTube channel that's going
00:03:45.320
to teach you some stuff, to read articles, to do research, to take a new course, to study,
00:03:49.400
to get smarter, to read books, to listen to audio books.
00:03:56.700
Because the reality of it is automation and AI is going to make it so easy to create wealth.
00:04:03.320
Look how many rags to riches stories you're going to see the next 10 to 20 years.
00:04:07.260
But do you want to know why politicians don't talk about the habits of people?
00:04:14.000
See, they don't want to talk about the habits of people because then people are going to
00:04:22.220
So what if I want to watch TV while the car is driving?
00:04:32.040
All I'm telling you is politicians are selling you what you want to hear, not what we need
00:04:37.320
Unfortunately, the same people they're talking to are the people they're hurting the most.
00:04:43.400
And we are so naive and we fall for this stuff because they're just wanting votes.
00:04:49.500
They just want to make sure they become presidents.
00:04:52.960
How often do you think they're going to get out and actually give an action plan that's
00:05:02.380
Stephen A. Smith's mother asked him, what could you have done differently?
00:05:08.680
I mean, you go back and look at people who ended up doing something very big with their
00:05:36.920
I believe deep down inside you want to go out there and do something big with your life
00:05:46.760
You became a good leader that people wanted to be around you for a while.
00:05:51.120
People behind your back say, that's a flippin' leader, man.
00:05:59.580
And then you have that pride to say, I did something in my life.
00:06:02.660
So the next time you hear about automation and AI, a complete different perspective.
00:06:07.180
What can you do to have automation and AI work in your favor for you to become smarter,
00:06:11.820
wiser, better, with new skills so you can have an edge in the marketplace?
00:06:15.280
So the next opportunity that comes up, you can pivot and boom!
00:06:20.320
Not somebody you read about in Forbes magazine.
00:06:25.300
That's what this whole thing is really all about.
00:06:28.900
Keep your ears open, your eyes open, and go do your own research, and then come to
00:06:34.680
Go do your own research based on what I'm saying.
00:06:38.720
But don't say, just because I offended you or you're hurt because I called you out on
00:06:45.780
Anyways, having said that, have a killer week this week.
00:06:49.580
