    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit techwingman.substack.com The world is changing fast: OpenAI and Anthropic are moving beyond software and into the consulting work surrounding it. Their agents and forward-deployed engineers may bring powerful expertise into small businesses, but they also arrive with platform incentives, preferred ecosystems and requests for deep access. In this episode, Tony, Egan and I explored custom AI skills “/vv /vvv and /appsanityrules”, the POV of the Gen-Z/Gen-Alpha and SMB owner’s perspective on the real questions around AI Consultants; who understands the business, who can be trusted, and whose interests shape the recommendation.

To hear more, visit techwingman.substack.com AI agents can answer questions, run workflows, use tools, coordinate other agents, and act with less supervision in 2026. None of that will matter if the system is aimed at work the business never needed or desired. We had a big group in this one, Tony, Keven, Cap, Mike and I dive into the 5 types of AI agents and why builders add another agent, server, or automation before they have identified the real constraint, a process for protecting human judgment in the loop, and deciding where AI leverage will actually move the business.

That convenience makes it dangerously easy to stop looking closely.

    AI Can Copy Your Workflow Now | Fire Talk #10

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit techwingman.substack.com It has started and builders missed it as always—historically proven. What are builders really building for? The conversation begins with interfaces, agents, command lines, and workflows, but it lands on a harder question: if AI can copy the thing you thought made your product valuable, what do you actually own? This episode, Cory Cachola, David, Egan, Tony and I moved past the tool layer and asked whether your work has a defensible outcome, a real user need, and a reason to survive when the workflow itself gets cheaper.

    AI Took The Easy Part | Fire Talk #8

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit techwingman.substack.com AI is starting to do the work people used to protect as their leverage: code, content, research, agents, workflows, even legacy systems that nobody wanted to touch are suddenly back on the table. But this conversation keeps circling the same uncomfortable question: if AI can do more of the execution, what are you actually responsible for now? In this episode, Tony, Hass, Egan and I explored to news about COBOL, OpenClaw, agents, or AI video. Under all of this, is the same concern: The more AI can do, the more important human judgment becomes!

    The Tool Is Not The Bottleneck | Fire Talk #7

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit techwingman.substack.com Look, most stuck projects are not waiting on a better tool at all, guest what? They are waiting on YOU! To go deal with the ugly manual step by step, the annoying work that you and I keep dodging. The job security workflow: go open the inbox, copy into the spreadsheet, get approval then handoff. The secret sauce of it all is hidden only because one person remembers how it works—cause they know how to use the existing tools. Sure, every flow is not this, but it’s a cousin. In this episode, Tony & I talk about AI, automation, Google Workspace, Zapier, Power Automate, Claude, security, and the real reason small teams stay stuck even when the tools & the know how are already sitting in front of them.
