Let me explain. 30 or 40 years ago, information had enormous value. If you wanted to learn a language, you needed a teacher. You needed to buy a dictionary or go to the library. If you wanted to open a business, you had to figure things out almost blindly. Information itself was the product. But now? AI can generate almost any information instantly. Ask ChatGPT: “How do I start a restaurant?” You’ll get a full step-by-step plan in seconds. So the real competitive advantage is no longer knowledge. It’s experience. AI can tell you what usually works. But it hasn’t: • survived real mistakes • developed intuition • learned from failure • built judgment That still comes from doing. Which raises an interesting question. In a world where AI gives everyone access to information… Does experience become the most valuable asset? Or will AI eventually replace that too?

Do you agree with this? And most importantly: Are you already acting like that’s true? 🤔 Most professionals hear “AI can automate 80% of your work” and immediately panic. But what if that’s the opportunity? What if that means you finally get to double down on your real 20%? Your judgment. Your taste. Your positioning. Your ability to make decisions and take responsibility. AI can draft. AI can summarize. AI can structure. AI can generate variations. But it cannot assume liability. It cannot truly understand long-term strategy. It cannot feel the weight of a decision. That part is still yours. — For me personally, this has been very real. In content creation alone, AI has saved me an absurd amount of time. It helps me: - Structure lessons faster - Refine explanations - Generate examples - Draft email variations - Clarify ideas Not to create my English courses for me. Not to replace my thinking. But to remove friction. And yet — if I’m being honest — I’m still probably using AI at 30–40% of its potential. Which means I’m leaving leverage on the table. So here’s the challenge: If AI can replace or assist 80% of the operational layer of your work… Are you consciously reinvesting that freed time into your 20%? Or are you just doing the same work slightly faster? Big difference. AI + 80/20 thinking is not about becoming an AI expert. It’s about becoming more of what makes you valuable. Be honest: Are you using AI to go deeper into your craft? Or just to move quicker through your inbox? 👀 Let’s discuss.

Didn’t expect to be writing this today, but here we are. We crossed 100 members within a few hours of opening this community. That tells me one thing: a lot of professionals are thinking seriously about how to use AI well, not just loudly. To mark the moment, here’s something worth reflecting on: The real power of AI isn’t speed. It’s reducing friction between thinking and execution. Used poorly, it creates noise. Used well, it helps you: - clarify what you already know - structure messy ideas - test decisions faster - move forward with less mental drag That’s the spirit of this space. If you’re new here: feel free to introduce yourself. What kind of work do you do — and what do you hope AI can help you think or execute better? More soon.
