Picture this: 88% of companies are now using AI, but only 39% are actually making more money from it.

That's like 9 out of 10 people buying gym memberships, but only 4 actually losing weight.

Everyone's playing with ChatGPT.

Everyone's "exploring AI."

But most businesses are just burning cash on fancy demos while only a small group is printing money.

Here's why this matters for US as entrepreneurs:

CEOs at both small businesses and large enterprises are now personally taking over AI strategy at nearly 30% of companies (double from last year).

Know what that means?

NOW is the time to start mastering AI in whatever your niche is. Once you become fluent in AI, you'll become the most in-demand person in your field and start leaving your competitors in the dust.

This isn't hyperbole, this is the story of my life.

After being laid off in 2024 I ducked off and studied everything about N8N, AI Agents, and automation. Now within a typical week I see multiple job offers, partnership opportunities, and now VCs looking to invest in my newest app.

This report from McKinsey is your wakeup call. Investing in mastering AI will pay life changing dividends.

Here's the full report:
