🚨 Embracing AI: A New Career Adventure

I've spent most of my life translating technology, explaining what's possible with new tools. The past year, I've been doing just that, teaching over 7,000 developers to use web3 and artificial intelligence (AI) while exploring the future of learning.

This work made one thing clear: AI can change how you learn, live, and work.

Thanks to AI, you can be more creative, work more efficiently, and bring ideas to life, even if you don't have a technical background.

The challenge is few people, and even fewer businesses, are actually using AI. I want to fix that. I want to explain why this new technology matters and how to use it. That's why I'm making a change.

🚨 As of today, I'm working full-time writing, teaching, and consulting on AI adoption across industries.

Starting today, you can:
👀 Watch my free five-minute tutorials on how to use AI

🧐 Take a course to unlock creativity and work efficiently with AI

🤝 Hire me to help your business integrate AI

I believe you can live well and work smart with just a little bit of AI.

FiveMin.AI - Unlock Opportunity

AI unlocks opportunity, but only if you know how to use it.

Over 14 years ago, my brother John and I saw the emergence of social media. We realized people and businesses could use it to connect to new opportunities. Our company, 9 Clouds, was launched to teach businesses to use the new technology.

Today, AI presents an even greater opportunity. Applying a little bit of AI can help you live well and work smart. You can bring ideas to life, even if you're not a developer, designer, or skilled writer. You can more quickly complete the laborious administrative tasks to do the interesting work that requires problem-solving and humanity.

Learning to use AI will help solve real-world problems. That's why I'm launching FiveMin.AI to teach people and businesses to use AI, in five minutes or less 😀

AI Consulting - Implement AI

AI empowers individuals. It supercharges organizations and businesses.

Companies that strategically implement AI across their teams save time and improve their work. Creative use of AI can lead to entirely new product lines or companies.

I’ve worked on AI products and hosted Fargo AI, with over 50 attendees at each session. The speed that companies and ideas are forming and launching is breathtaking. Even in my home of Fargo, dozens of companies are starting, thanks to the power of AI.

Strategic implementation of AI can improve efficiency and unlock creativity for businesses. I want to help make that happen.

That's why I'm consulting for businesses that need help adopting AI in their organization.

This work is typically a three-step process:

1. Identifying opportunities with AI
2. Implementing AI and training team members on how to use it
3. Building AI tooling needed for the specific company

✅ I currently have openings for consulting clients. Contact me to learn more.

AI Creates Action - And It's Time to Take Action

AI inspires action.

Many of the obstacles preventing us from pursuing an idea are gone. Anyone with an idea can bring that idea to life. That's why I’m now working to speed the adoption of AI.

I hope my tutorials, courses, and consulting will help you take advantage of these new opportunities.

Thanks for your support as I jump head-first into this new world.
