Weniger Sorge um KI, einfach mehr KI nutzen

0:00So, I'm in the professional advice space. I'm a lawyer, I do estate planning, financial planning, tax planning. But this could apply to professional advice generally. What are the the things you would focus on to protect against or moat against AI automation, those sort of things interrupting the space? Yeah, really good question. Um I I don't think it's actually a threat. And let me explain. So, you're like, I thought Alex was all about AI, which I am.

0:27Um basically, I think it's not going to matter until it doesn't matter. So, it's going to be humans plus technology, which has not changed. It's humans plus internet, humans plus computers, humans plus AI. And that's what it is now. The people who are better using AI will get an advantage cuz they have technology that other people don't. Um until the UX with AI can be truly seamless, where you can just talk and it can solve problems to a degree that you know, who's an unknowing person, what the right answer is. Cuz the problem with like, oh, well, AI can code. The only guys who talk about that are coders.

1:00And so, they have to have the perspective from which to make the judgment on how good is this code that it spit out. And if I'm a writer, I can tell you that the stuff that AI writes is better than most people, but it's not better than the best writers. Now, they say, okay, well, in the future it will be better than the best writers. But who's going to be able to have the context to make that judgment, right? And so, um I've come, at least for me, in terms of decreasing my anxiety around AI in general, it's we will continue to embrace a technology, and I use this across the portfolio cuz some of our companies have the same concerns. We will continue to embrace tech technology until AI beats humans at everything, in which case it won't matter.

1:36Cuz everybody loses. So, where everybody wins, depending on how you want to see it. But that's that's kind of how I I see that overall, which means that given how AI is moving, what will that change about my behavior? Nothing. And so, that's why I don't spend a huge amount of time thinking about how AI is disrupting things, and just spend a lot of time of like, how do I harness it, just like any other technology. And then, someday in the future, if it replaces me, then we're all [ __ ] anyways.

2:01If you're a business owner, and you are not growing as fast as you like, I'd like to give you a free gift. So, my team and I put together the $100 million scaling road map, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we've had, and what stages of growth they went through, and more importantly, where they got stuck, and how they got past it. And so, we broke it into these 10 stages, and we made this little kind of quiz thing, where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at, and the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources, and finance. And so, no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so, I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information, and if you want us to actually help you deconstruct the business, and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page, you can book a call with my team, and we will look at the business, see if we can help, and if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas, and we'll do this in person, live.
