🔁 Why AI Makes a Bad Second Opinion (And a Great First One)
There's a specific way a lot of people have started using AI that feels reasonable on the surface but tends to produce weaker outcomes than they expect: making a decision first, then asking AI to check it. "Does this plan make sense?" "Is this the right call?" "Can you sanity-check this approach?" These questions feel like due diligence. In practice, they're often asking AI to validate a decision that's already been made, and AI is structurally not very good at that particular job. The distinction that matters here is sequence. AI brought in before a decision is formed and AI brought in after a decision is formed produce genuinely different kinds of value, and most people default into the second pattern without realizing the first would usually serve them better. ------------- Context ------------- When AI is asked to evaluate a decision that's already been presented as the plan, it tends to find reasonable support for that plan, because the framing of the question shapes the response. Ask "does this make sense" about almost any coherent plan, and a capable AI model will generally find a way to say yes, with some caveats, because most reasonably constructed plans do make some sense, and the question as framed is oriented toward confirmation rather than genuine challenge. This isn't a flaw exactly. It's a reflection of how these tools respond to framing. A question asked in a confirmatory posture tends to get a confirmatory answer, unless the plan is genuinely and obviously flawed. The subtler problems, the ones that a good second opinion is actually supposed to catch, are much less likely to surface when the question is framed as "check this" rather than "help me think through this from scratch." Contrast this with AI brought in before a decision has formed, asked to help explore the problem itself: what are the options, what are the tradeoffs, what am I not considering. This framing produces a genuinely different quality of engagement, because there's no existing conclusion for the response to gravitate toward. The AI is helping construct thinking rather than validate a thought that's already complete.

OpenAI put out a ton of new stuff this week including the public release of the GPT-5.6 family of models, the new ChatGPT Work app that will be merging Codex and ChatGPT capabilities, a new voice mode, improvements to the speech-to-text dictation, and more! I break it all down for you here, enjoy! Want to save time, get more leverage, and stop figuring this AI stuff out from scratch? I put the clearest map and support inside the AI Advantage Club

Keep Going. You're Building Something Bigger Than You Think.
There's a season where you're doing everything right... You're showing up. You're putting in the work. You're staying consistent. And it still feels like nothing is changing. No momentum. No big breakthrough. No proof that it's working. This is the moment that separates people. Not because the work got harder... but because they mistake a lack of results for a lack of progress. What I've learned after decades in business is this: The invisible season is where everything important gets built. Your discipline. Your resilience. Your standards. Your identity. The results come later. Success rarely announces itself while it's being built. It compounds quietly... until one day everyone calls it an overnight success. If you're in that season right now, don't quit. The work you're doing today is building the life you'll eventually be grateful you didn't give up on.

Where To Begin?? 🤔🤔
COMPLETE newbie here. I would love to get advice from you wonderful people on where I should even begin with AI. I have not been in this space for long. In fact until recently I was not into computers or anything like this at all. Not a "techie", not a "gamer". Just someone using computers for productivity. You know...boring AF stuff. But the emergence of AI has completely flipped that on its head for me!! 🥰 I think AI is absolutely amazing and the possibilities we have as humans are endless!! Ok...please stick with me here, lol. I am super excited to be writing this after unlocking my Level 2 (thanks everyone 😊) and I tend to talk a lot when I get excited because I am really passionate about this stuff!! 😊😊 For context, I want to learn how to use AI for lead generation and to use AI in customer outreach in my profession (yes, I know more kinda boring stuff). But I want to learn how to create stuff with it!! I also want to use it in a couple of businesses I am starting. I know Nate is about starting an AI agency and I think that is so awesome and would love to do that one day. But my focus is using AI to help others who want to help others. I don't know if that falls into an AI agency or what. I love learning, teaching, and helping others. I don't care about making a million dollars with an AI agency but I do care about using AI to help me create a life to break out of the corporate world and be a full time entrepreneur where I can help people. So I'm turning to 426,000 members in this community to help me achieve these goals!!! 🏆 This post is a couple of paragraphs so I hope you read it to the end and don't roast me too bad in the comments lol. 😁😁 For about the last six months I have played around with ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, the usual beginner chatbot stuff. I have tried to run a few projects with Claude co-work and more times than not have been frustrated with the results. I know it's not on the AI side, it's on the operator side. Although, I don't really trust it too much when I take a picture of a mushroom and send it to ChatGPT to find out if it is safe to eat or not. My level of confidence in AI is definitely not that high lol 🍄☠️. I need to learn the correct ways on how to prompt, create instructions, and have a solid foundation set up with context files.

Nobody Would Know
You show UP. You handle the job, the family, the whole day. From the outside, everything looks fine. And still......... something inside has gone quiet, and you're not sure anymore if it's coming back. That is not you failing. That is just what it feels like when the years move without you for a while. I have sat in this spot myself. You are not the only one in this room who knows it.
