Did you know that Claude went down for almost an hour today? If you are relying solely on Claude for your AI-powered workflows, your business may be at risk. This highlights the importance of having appropriate AI governance, failovers, data backup, and a model-agnostic infrastructure in place. What is your fail-over and disaster recovery process when your systems go down? Without a solid plan for your AI stack your business is vulnerable. Testing your failovers before you need them is crucial. 👇🏾 Don't wait for the next outage to determine your Plan B. Access my AI model-agnostic guide for more insights. Did you experience any issues with using Claude today?

I've been testing Claude's new Fable 5 model and wow its good! But.... Fable 5 is Anthropic’s most capable and safe Mythos model. That includes stronger offensive cybersecurity capability and because of that, they had to build a new layer of safety classifiers around it. That tells me the conversation is shifting. The future of AI adoption isn't just about access to stronger models. It's about judgment. I ran a comparison between Fable 5, Opus 4.8, and GPT 5.5. Fable 5 pulled ahead on anything requiring taste, autonomy, and multi-step execution - games, dashboards, interactive builds, app experiences. Opus 4.8 completed the work but needed more guidance and missed small details. GPT 5.5 held up on coding workflows but didn't match the polish. The landing page test gave me the biggest lesson. Fable 5 was only slightly better there. A powerful model can build your business assets. But It cannot fix weak positioning, unclear offers, strategies, or a founder who hasn't defined what the audience needs to believe before they buy. That's the part business owners need to hear. The same power that can help you build faster can also expose you. Fable 5 raises the bar for what AI can do. But it also raises the bar for how founders need to think about AI adoption and business strategy. Your guardrails matter. Your operating rules matter but your own human judgment matters most. What foundational strategies, judgment and guardrails are place in your business before you hand bigger decisions to more a powerful AI? Have you tried Fable 5 in Claude?

I’m excited to share that I’ve been selected to join the HeyGen Ambassador Program. Out of hundreds of applications, being chosen is something I don’t take lightly... and I’m genuinely grateful for the opportunity. ~ Why This One Means a Lot ~ For me, this isn’t just about being part of a program. It’s a reflection of the direction I’ve been moving in for a while now: - Exploring what AI can actually do (not just what’s trending) - Building systems around it - Creating consistently - Staying curious and willing to experiment I’ve spent a lot of time not just learning tools—but actually working through them. Testing. Refining. Iterating. And over time, that starts to compound. ~ Why I Think This Worked ~ This wasn’t a one-time push or a perfect application. It came from: - Consistent effort over time - Actually using the tools, not just talking about them - Sharing ideas, experiments, and lessons along the way - Staying genuinely curious about where this space is going Nothing fancy...just staying close to the work. And if there’s anything I’d pass along, it’s this: You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need to start building—and stay in it long enough to get good. What This Means (And What It Doesn’t) This isn’t a finish line. It’s access. Access to hopefully better tools, deeper insights, and a front-row seat to where AI video is going. And I plan to make the most of that—by continuing to build, test, and share what’s actually working. ~ What’s Next ~ I’m looking forward to: - Going deeper with AI video creation - Sharing more of what I’m learning - Exploring new ways to create, scale, and connect through this technology There’s a lot happening in this space right now. We’re still early. Appreciate everyone here... excited to keep building and learning alongside you...

What are you building with AI this month? What applications are you using?
