Still using AI like a toy? Or is the Toy using you?

Hi Reader

Weekend = a great time to think clearly - before the noise of Monday drowns it out.

If you’re using ChatGPT (or any AI tool), you need to read this:
👉 You’re Using AI Like a Toy — And Here’s Why It’s Not Working​

Here’s the truth:
Prompts don’t build businesses.
Systems do.

In this short piece, I walk through:

  • Why most founders stall with AI, and what to do first
  • The hidden fear that keeps you from launching
  • What it actually takes you to build with momentum
  • Why AI is NOT everything that you need

Think of it as a weekend pre-flight check.
One read, and you'll never look at AI (or your work) the same again.

What platform are you on?

Catch you in the air,

PS: It's a brutally honest look at why most founders fail with AI - because they rely on prompts instead of building systems that actually move their business forward, and taking OUT the human side of it.

But before we board… You’ve got Lounge Access. It’s quiet. Strategic. Signal-rich. Where real founders prep before wheels-up. Inside the Lounge: 🧭 Sneak peeks at...

Hi Reader Here’s a hard question: Are you actually flying with your business? Or just circling? Busy doesn’t mean movement. And focus doesn’t mean clarity. That’s what FlightClub fixes: Fellow Founders calling out drift. Systems that track actual signals. AI that mirrors your momentum as your Wingman. We're assembling the first 25 Founders. This isn’t a product. It’s a mission. And it starts with the ones brave enough to get raw, reflect hard, and fly with purpose. Join the formation. Lock in...

Founders FlightPath

Hey Reader Most founders don’t crash. They drift. Off-course. Off-mission. Slowly. Slowly losing altitude with fake productivity, scattered focus, and no crew to call them back. FlightClub is the antidote. It’s not another Slack group. Not another Course. It’s a formation of Founders. Just 25 founders to start - each one building in public, flying their business together, pushing for clarity. ✅ Weekly LIFT Score Challenges✅ Strategy Sessions + Signal Diagnostics✅ Otto Pilot Wingman System...
