AI Powered Founder is a real-time look at what it actually takes to get more done as a builder using AI — no hype, no highlight reel. Host John, a product manager turned founder, is building his own company (Living Stones) as the test case — using AI not as a novelty but as daily working tools. Each episode is honest about what's actually moving the needle versus what's just noise: what worked this week, what didn't, what he changed his mind about. If you're trying to figure out how to make the most of AI as a builder, and are tired of the AI-Influencer-Hype, this is that show.

    The term "vibe coding" no longer works

    0% of the code written in my app, Living Stones, was written but human hands, and yet what I am doing is NOT vibe coding. This term has been overused and weaponized and it’s time to create some new terms to match what AI Powered Founders are really doing.More on what I'm building: www.livingstones.app
