What caught my attention
On November 30, 2022, Sam Altman tweeted:
“Today we launched ChatGPT. Try talking with it here.”The very first reply?
“Love the ambition and thesis, but given the current tech, I’d say it’s your worst product concept so far.”
What I See
This little exchange with Sam Altman lit me up!
AI is here to stay.
And it’s not just staying…it’s changing everything.
Whole empires of so‑called expertise are going to collapse in the age of AI.
The throne of “I know the most” is gone.
That pedestal is cracking, and everyone can feel it.
Now you have to elevate your knowledge — make connections that actually matter, in ways that are relevant today.
It’s not enough to toot your horn about what you know. That won’t cut it anymore.
And most people don’t want to stretch into expansion — but that’s exactly what this moment demands.
So instead of evolving, they lash out. They cling harder.
They churn out article after article about AI — what could go wrong, how unsafe it is, why it can’t be trusted.
That’s the reflex of people terrified of AI and terrified of change.
What they’re missing is that AI amplifies you.
It magnifies what you already do.
It increases your ability to create, to think, to build.
You can still build brilliant, jaw-dropping things as a human being.
And with AI you get this extra lift that takes it somewhere you couldn’t have gone before.
I think about that first guy who sneered and called ChatGPT “the worst product concept so far.”
I wonder if he’s choking on those words now, seeing what it’s become.
Because when you use AI as a real tool — daily, consistently — it changes you.
I can say this from my own life:
Using AI every day has changed not only my business — it’s transformed the quality of my life, the standards I hold myself to, and the person I’ve become.
The speed at which I’m learning, the way I’m expanding — it’s beyond what would have ever been possible before.
I’ve been encouraging my kids to use ChatGPT — and they’ve been reading my articles here, watching me use it every day.
They pick it up to learn.
They pick it up to ask their own questions.
They pick it up to plan their futures.
And they are blowing me away with what they’re creating, with how they’re thinking.
This isn’t a small thing — it’s changing them right in front of me.
I don’t waste my breath debating AI anymore.
If someone’s already made up their mind, there’s no crack in the wall to get through.
They’ll stay locked in, clinging to the old world.
Pointing to every risk like it’s proof.
Convincing themselves they’re safe while everything moves on without them.
That’s not my fight.
That’s not my energy.
I used to want to make them see how exciting and full of possibilities life becomes when you relax into using AI.
But they don’t want to innovate.
They don’t want to expand.
Not yet.
But for me?
Sitting on old knowledge.
Complaining about change.
Resisting innovation.
That’s not just stagnation — it’s death.
It’s dying slowly while the world moves on without you.
Life is expansion.
Life is learning.
Life is being pulled forward by change, with or without your permission.
The best part of life is the expansion — the rush of learning, the hit of discovery, the way it cracks you open and forces you to grow.
And when you live that way, you don’t just get through the days — you come alive in them!
