A lot of people use AI, but very few people know how to use AI, and even fewer people use it well. That is really the difference between just dabbling and truly mastering it. It's the difference between 2x-ing your potential and 10x-ing it. What I want to talk about today is how to use it well and to help you improve your skills and ability and to amplify it with AI and show you real-world examples of how AI didn't just help me, it helped me win a case. So here's what happened. I had a court hearing yesterday. Normally I'd be at my desk sifting through briefs, exhibits, timelines, rehearsing arguments, hours of prep. But this time I was on the road for an hour in my car, hands occupied, eyes on the road. So what'd I do before I left? I turned to ChatGPT's voice mode and I uploaded the briefs and exhibits for the entire drive, and I sparred with intelligence. I asked about timelines. We tested themes for the hearing. I challenged the claims in the plaintiff's briefs, and I explored the defense's arguments. It was like having a mentor and a judge, an adversary and a collaborator all at once. It was incredible. And the outcome, by the time I got there, I wasn't just ready, I was sharper, clearer, faster than ever. And the result, we won the case. Not because AI gave me the answers, but because I used it as a force multiplier. I wasn't 2x prepared, I was 10x prepared. This is the closing challenge. This lesson that you can treat AI like a novelty and it will give you novelty-level results, or you can learn to interact with it as intelligence, sparring partner, a collaborator, an amplifier. The future belongs to those who master it. And the only question is, will you dabble or will you dominate? If you are using AI professionally, if you're using it at work, you need to build the skills, the mindset, the strategies of interacting with intelligence, of interacting with these tools in a way that is going to amplify you to the maximum. of your potential. We're going to be doing more of these videos where we're going to talk about how to use AI in the real world. If you're a business professional, I happen to be a lawyer, but the, the skills that you will learn here are the very skills you're going to need to succeed in the AI age. A lot of people use AI, but very few people know how to use AI, and even fewer people use it well. That is really the difference between just dabbling and truly mastering it. It's the difference between 2x-ing your potential and 10x-ing it. What I want to talk about today is how to use it well.
