Episode Summary

In this solo episode of The Chat GPT Experiment, host Cary Weston dives into two real conversations he had with business owners—one looking to implement AI into their operations and the other trying to pivot into AI consulting. Cary offers straight-up, no-fluff advice: don't start with AI. Start with your business needs, your strengths, and the problems you're actually trying to solve. From there, tools like ChatGPT can help scale or simplify your work—but they can't create structure where none exists.

3 Key Takeaways

  • Don't lead with AI—lead with your business. Identify the specific problem you're trying to solve. AI can help, but it's not the starting point.

  • If it's not documented, it can't be scaled. Whether it's pricing info, sales process, or FAQs—get it organized first. Then, AI can actually help.

  • Big AI moves can start small. You don't need to become an AI consultant or master every tool. Start with what you already know and build from there.
