Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
AI can help a small business produce more work, but that doesn’t automatically make the business better.
Chris Dyer, former CEO, four-time bestselling author and leadership keynote speaker, joins Charly to look at what happens when AI changes how much work people can generate:
✅ Greater output can place more pressure on the people expected to deliver it
➡️ AI works better as a thought partner than an unquestioned authority
⚡ People and processes need attention before choosing tools and technology
⭐ Trust is built through how leaders respond when the important moments arrive
There are practical lessons here for business owners introducing AI, managing change or trying to improve productivity without overwhelming everyone around them.
Is AI helping your business work better, or is it simply creating more work?

Blindly following tutorials you find on the Internet can leave you exposed. Whether that’s an AI crypto trading bot or a WordPress function, you need to know what you’re putting into your systems.

Today, Charly discusses:
✅ How a crypto trading bot was really just a crypto transfer mechanism
➡️ Why a WordPress function that works could still cause you trouble
⚡ What you’re trusting copied code with, beyond the task you want done
