AI is not just the future. It’s your competitive edge—today.

I help ambitious professionals and companies stay informed, and ahead with AI. 

As founder of The AI Report, I lead the #1 B2B AI newsletter helping 400,000+ readers—from NASA, Tesla, Meta, and more—master the real-world use of AI in 5 minutes a day.

What I focus on as CEO:

📈 Driving company vision, growth strategy, and business model innovation
🧠 Building world-class editorial and research systems across content, product, and training
🤝 Leading partnerships with global brands and AI providers
👥 Hiring and enabling exceptional operators to scale execution

AI isn’t a trend. It’s the most important lever in your business—and most are still pulling it wrong.

If you're ready to stop dabbling and start scaling, I can help.

Let’s talk.

Your AI pilots are working perfectly.

But your transformation is heading for disaster.

Most companies confuse AI activity with AI progress.

Here are the red flags that predict failure before it happens.

1 - You're measuring AI success by adoption rates, not business outcomes
↳ "50% of employees use ChatGPT" doesn't equal success.
↳ Revenue growth, cost reduction, and competitive advantage do.
↳ Vanity metrics hide the lack of real impact.

2 - Leadership treats AI as an IT project instead of business transformation
↳ AI initiatives buried under the CTO instead of the CEO.
↳ Technology decisions made without business strategy input.
↳ Missing the forest for the trees every single time.

3 - You have no clear process for scaling successful pilots
↳ Great proof-of-concepts die in pilot purgatory.
↳ No framework for moving from 10 users to 10,000.
↳ Success stories become isolated experiments that never scale.

4 - Different departments are implementing competing AI solutions
↳ Sales uses one AI tool, marketing uses another, finance uses a third.
↳ Data silos prevent cross-functional AI collaboration.
↳ Integration nightmares multiply costs and complexity.

5 - You're solving technology problems instead of business problems
↳ "How can we use AI?" instead of "What business challenges can AI solve?"
↳ Cool demos that don't move the needle on KPIs.
↳ Innovation theater masquerading as transformation strategy.

6 - Your AI initiatives have no dedicated budget or executive sponsor
↳ AI projects funded from leftover IT budget scraps.
↳ No C-level champion fighting for resources and priority.
↳ Competing with every other "innovation" for attention and funding.

7 - You're copying competitors' AI strategies without customization
↳ "If it works for them, it'll work for us" mentality.
↳ Ignoring unique company culture, processes, and constraints.
↳ Generic solutions rarely deliver competitive advantages.

8 - Your data quality issues are being ignored or postponed
↳ "We'll clean up the data later" famous last words.
↳ Garbage in, garbage out applies especially to AI.
↳ Technical debt becoming AI strategy death spiral.

9 - You have no plan for employee training and change management
↳ Assuming workers will naturally embrace AI transformation.
↳ No skills development or workflow redesign strategy.
↳ Human resistance killing even the best AI implementations.

Recognize any of these warning signs?

You're not alone.

87% of AI transformations fail because of these predictable mistakes.

The good news?

Every one of these problems is fixable.

The bad news?

Your competitors who fix them first will leave you behind.

Which warning sign hits closest to home for your organization?

9 Warning Signs Your AI Strategy Is About to Fail

OpenAI is coming for LinkedIn.

They’ve just announced the OpenAI Jobs Platform (launching 2026):
💼 An AI-powered hiring marketplace that matches companies with talent.

📜 Certifications via the OpenAI Academy (10M people by 2030, Walmart already on board).

🧩 A push to expand beyond ChatGPT into hiring, social apps, and even browsers.

This move puts OpenAI in direct competition with LinkedIn — owned by Microsoft, its biggest partner.
And it raises a big question: who will own the future of talent and skills infrastructure?

We broke down the key points in a simple carousel:
🔹 What the Jobs Platform is
🔹 Why certifications matter
🔹 How this impacts hiring pipelines
🔹 The competitive clash with LinkedIn
🔹 Business takeaways for leaders

💡 Bonus insight: Unlike LinkedIn, the OpenAI Jobs Platform is being built for local businesses and governments — and certifications will happen directly inside ChatGPT. That could give OpenAI a grassroots edge in adoption.

👉 Would you hire through OpenAI Jobs — or stick with LinkedIn?

Learn AI in 5min a Day

Most people fear AI will steal their jobs.
New research from Stanford, McKinsey, and IBM proves the opposite.
AI is creating the most fulfilling work environments in decades:

1. AI Eliminates Soul-Crushing Busywork
→ Workers report 40% less time on repetitive, rule-based tasks
→ Creative problem-solving time increases by 60% with AI integration
→ Employee satisfaction jumps when AI handles routine workflows
Boring work disappears, meaningful work multiplies.

2. New Job Categories Are Emerging Rapidly
Intelligent technology creates complex roles requiring human judgment.
AI trainers, prompt engineers, and automation specialists didn't exist 3 years ago.
These positions demand analytical skills and creativity that AI can't replicate.

3. Human-AI Collaboration Drives Unprecedented Efficiency
McKinsey research shows fewer production constraints with AI partnerships.
→ Workers gain autonomy as AI handles predictable processes
→ Teams accomplish strategic goals faster than ever before

4. AI Actually Increases Overall Employment
Labor productivity improvements create economic growth.
→ Capital deepening and refined division of labor generate new opportunities
→ Job displacement in routine tasks creates demand in higher-skill areas

5. Workers Are Upskilling Into Future-Proof Roles
Companies investing in AI literacy see 3x better retention rates.
→ Employees embrace reskilling when they see career advancement potential
→ Human-led AI implementation fosters creativity over replacement

6. Job Satisfaction Reaches Record Highs
Stanford studies show workers prefer AI-augmented roles.
→ Autonomy increases when mundane tasks get automated
→ Focus shifts to work that actually requires human insight

The data is clear: AI doesn't replace humans.
It elevates them to work that actually matters.

AI Video Tools: Veo 2 vs Sora vs Runway - Which One Wins?

New founders often think it’s all about sales and scaling.

But the entrepreneurs who thrive long-term focus on trust.

Here’s what worked for me:
— Staying consistent, even without fast results
— Speaking openly about what I could and couldn’t solve
— Connecting others, even if I didn’t benefit directly

That kind of integrity builds a network that returns value again and again.

The shortcut? There isn’t one. Just consistency and clarity.

Most marketers don’t need AI that thinks like a scientist.
They need AI that sells.

The current AI stack? It's not designed for growth teams.

But imagine AI that actually speaks your KPIs:

✅ Leads
✅ Pipeline
✅ Personalization at scale

This isn’t just a market gap. It’s a massive opportunity.

I’m betting big on the future of AI-powered marketing, and it’s just getting started.

Are you already working at this edge?

We designed OrbitFlows for LinkedIn and newsletter content. 
Then something surprising happened.

As soon as users set up their business Profile, our structured intake that learns tone, voice, positioning, and more… they didn’t want to stop at social posts.

Instead, they asked:
“Can I use this for SEO?”
“Can I use it to write internal SOPs?”
“Can I run product docs through it?”

Turns out, once your AI actually understands you, it stops being a content tool and starts becoming a content partner.

→ Is your team still feeding prompts into a blank box?

Your newsletter isn’t just a content channel. It’s your global Swiss Army knife.

When built strategically, a newsletter becomes the most versatile tool in your stack, capable of nurturing cold leads, reactivating dead ones, and staying top-of-mind without needing to pitch constantly.

We've seen this work across:
SaaS and service providers
High-ticket programs and accelerators
Even cold outbound CRMs

Every email is a touchpoint. Every newsletter is a chance to re-engage. 
And the best part? You’re delivering value, not just offers.

→ Are you treating your newsletter like a media brand yet?

When Manthan Patel showed us this workflow, we knew we had to test it.

Most teams:
Manually source leads
Spend hours writing outreach
Stitch together half-broken tools

This system?
→ AI builds the lead list
→ Qualifies it
→ Writes outreach
→ Loads campaigns
→ Human oversight only where it counts

Fast, scalable, and lean.
This is what modern lead gen looks like.
