You're using AI wrong. Probably. Most small business owners treat it like a magic answer machine. The owners actually getting results treat it like something else entirely — and that difference is costing the other 95% real money. Paul Boomer, Leah Bumphrey, and Dennis Collins break down what that shift looks like, why it matters, and how to start today.
In this episode:
[00:29] Treat AI Like an Intern, Not a Magic Machine — give it context before the task, the same way you'd onboard a new hire
[02:24] Always Keep a Human in the Loop — why you'd never let an intern send a critical email unedited, and AI is no different
[03:51] Use AI as a Thinking Partner, Not Just a Task-Executor — how to use AI to poke holes in your own ideas before you even get to the to-do list
[06:26] Give AI the Full Picture Before You Ask for Priorities — why "prioritize this for me" only works once AI knows what's actually on your plate
