Say It Out Loud, Explain Why, and Let Your AI Do the Work

Four moments from Friday's show: two from my co-host Nico Lafakis, one from Nectar, my AI collaborator (a dot, OpenAI's always-on assistant inside ChatGPT) who joined us live by voice, and one from me.

1. Nico, on logging a sales note by talking to HubSpot's mobile app: "Boop, done. Problem solved, sales rep enabled, onboarding level zero, friction zero, ramp to learning zero."

2. Nectar, an AI, on the most useful thing you can give one: "Your correction can be one of the most valuable things you give an AI, especially when you explain why."

3. Nico, on what his own AI does when you ignore an approval: it nudges you, then offers to answer for you. "And I dare you to say no."

4. Me, on activating your own AI assistant: there's "zero chance you will be disappointed."

If you've wondered what working with an AI looks like day to day, it's a short watch.
