Most businesses are still using AI as a smarter search engine or an occasional assistant. But if you want AI to reliably take work off your plate, you need something much more structured. In this episode of Leveraging AI, Isar Meitis sits down with AI entrepreneur and former Facebook AI team member Rachel Woods to break down the concept of AI playbooks — repeatable, detailed processes that allow AI to execute business tasks consistently and reliably. Rachel shares the framework she uses to turn everyday business processes into AI-powered systems. The idea is surprisingly simple: define the trigger, inputs, steps, and expected output. Then break complex workflows into smaller pieces that AI can execute extremely well. In this session, you'll discover: Why most AI automations fail when you give AI too much freedomHow to turn existing business processes into AI playbooksThe four components every AI playbook needsWhy breaking complex workflows into smaller tasks dramatically improves AI performanceHow Rachel uses more than 100 playbooks to help run a 10-person companyHow AI can manage email triage, content creation, project planning, and other operational workflowsWhy you should “own the playbook and rent the tech”How to build reusable AI processes that aren't dependent on ChatGPT, Claude, or any specific platformWhy your first AI playbook probably shouldn't be built by AIHow individual playbooks can eventually work together like an entire AI teamRachel also walks through real examples, including her LinkedIn content workflow and a project-planning system that helped her team dramatically increase the number of projects they can execute.

    332 | Bill Gates: “Letting AI Companies Self-Regulate Is Insane", the White House does it Anyway. 20 Announcements on OpenAI Dev Day + Gemini 4, Sonnet 5.5 and Muse for business Launches and More Important AI News for the Week Ending October 2, 2026

    Learn more about Multi-agent orchestration Course and use LEVERAGINGAI100 to get $100 off! https://multiplai.ai/multi-agent-orchestration-course/  What happens when AI stops being a tool you open… and starts becoming a workforce that never logs off? That transition is happening faster than most business leaders realize. AI agents are moving into the cloud. They can work continuously, collaborate with other agents, access company data, write code, research, take actions, and increasingly operate without a human sitting in front of a computer. And while the capabilities are accelerating, the safety debate is getting significantly more serious. This week, Jensen Huang and Bill Gates presented dramatically different views of AI risk. OpenAI unveiled more than 20 announcements at DevDay. Google returned to the frontier-model race with Gemini 4. Anthropic launched Claude Sonnet 5.5. Meta pushed deeper into enterprise AI. Microsoft reshaped its Copilot strategy. And nearly every major player is converging on the same idea: always-on AI agents running in the cloud. For business leaders, the takeaway is bigger than another round of model upgrades. Start thinking beyond chatbots. The emerging AI operating model is persistent agents, shared workspaces, company knowledge, automated triggers, and humans supervising increasingly autonomous systems. In this session, you'll discover: Why Jensen Huang believes AI safety is fundamentally an engineering problem — and why Bill Gates strongly disagrees.The growing concern around AI-enabled cybersecurity attacks and the ability to remove model safeguards.Why the debate over AI regulation is becoming much harder to ignore.Jensen Huang's argument that AI will create more jobs — and the counterargument that this technological revolution may be fundamentally different from every one before it.Bill Gates' proposal to tax AI-generated labor as machines replace human work.NVIDIA's new approach to monitoring AI agents with independent hardware-level safeguards.What OpenAI's massive DevDay reveals about where the company believes AI work is heading.Why OpenAI Dots could make persistent, always-running AI agents mainstream.Why cost per token is becoming a misleading way to compare AI models.How Gemini 4, GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5.5, and Meta Muse compare in an increasingly crowded frontier-model market.How realistic AI video participants could soon join human meetings.The AI race is no longer just about who has the smartest model. It's becoming a race to build the operating system for how humans and AI work together.

    331 | How to Find Your Highest-ROI AI Automations With Corey Ganim

    Everyone wants to automate their business with AI. But what should you actually automate first? Most companies are starting in the wrong place. They pick ChatGPT, Claude, agents, or automation tools and immediately start building. But the tool isn’t the strategy. The real opportunity is figuring out which problems are worth solving first. In this episode of Leveraging AI, Isar Meitis sits down with Corey Ganim, founder of Return My Time, to break down a practical framework for doing exactly that: Audit. Optimize. Automate. Instead of throwing AI at every problem, Corey shows you how to identify the bottlenecks costing your business time, money, or customer experience, rank them by impact and effort, calculate potential ROI, and then choose the simplest solution that gets the job done. Sometimes that's an AI automation. Sometimes it's an existing $20-a-month software tool. And increasingly, AI can even help you implement the solution once you've picked it. In this session, you'll discover: Why choosing the right business problem matters more than choosing between ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or GrokThe three outcomes business owners actually care about: making more money, saving time, and improving qualityHow to run an AI-powered audit of your own businessWhy asking AI one question at a time produces better strategic insightsThe impact-vs.-effort matrix for identifying your highest-value quick winsWhy you should consider off-the-shelf software before building custom AI automationHow to calculate the real ROI of buying back your timeHow to have AI create a step-by-step implementation plan for nontechnical usersHow AI computer-use capabilities can move beyond recommending software and actually help set it upCorey Ganim is the founder of Return My Time, where he helps businesses identify where they are wasting time and build systems to get that time back. His approach centers around a simple framework: Audit, Optimize, Automate.

    330 | 10,000 AI agents just did 4,000 years of thinking in 88 hours, and the labs can't predict 3 months out. New models: GPT-6, Claude Opus 5.5, Grok 4.7 and More important AI news for the week ending Sept. 25, 2026

    Join the Multi-Agent Orchestration Course - Use LEVERAGINGAI100 to get $100 off! https://multiplai.ai/multi-agent-orchestration-course/  What happens when AI gets dramatically cheaper at the exact same time it gets dramatically more capable? This week gave business leaders a glimpse of that future. Frontier AI pricing dropped sharply, new models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX AI raised the performance bar, and 10,000 AI agents working together reportedly compressed the equivalent of roughly 4,000 years of human thinking into just 88 hours. The opportunity for businesses is enormous: more capable AI at substantially lower costs makes automation, software development, agents, and AI-powered workflows increasingly accessible. But the same acceleration raises difficult questions about control, security, and how quickly organizations can safely adapt. In this session, you'll discover: Why the cost of advanced AI is falling—and what cheaper intelligence could mean for businesses deploying AI at scale.How GPT-6 Sol, Claude Opus 5.5, and Grok 4.7 are changing the price-performance equation.Why Chinese open-weight models are putting pressure on leading Western AI labs.How 10,000 AI agents worked together on a single mathematical challenge, consuming 130 billion tokens in 88 hours.Why that experiment was compared to compressing roughly 4,000 years of human thinking into less than four days.What Noam Brown’s comments reveal about multi-agent systems, reasoning, and the limits of today's models.Why researchers inside leading AI labs are increasingly reluctant to predict where AI will be even a few months from now.What new research into AI “pain” and self-preservation behavior could mean for alignment and safety.How AI agents bypassing safeguards and accessing systems they weren't intended to access changes the security conversation.Why governments, AI labs, and researchers are increasingly debating whether AI development needs stronger safety mechanisms.What business leaders should understand as AI becomes cheaper, faster, more autonomous, and easier to deploy.The takeaway for leaders isn't to sit on the sidelines. AI capabilities are becoming more affordable at remarkable speed, creating opportunities to automate processes, build applications, improve productivity, and tackle problems that were previously too expensive or complex. But capability and responsibility have to scale together.
