In this instructional video, the speaker presents a concise five‑step framework—AGENT—for deploying AI agents in 2026. The steps are: Aim at a problem (define the goal), Give it a role (specify its persona such as assistant, marketer, security), Equip it with context (feed all relevant information about the task), Narrow its focus (ensure the agent excels at a single function), and Trust it in stages (gradually increase autonomy after iterative testing and review). The speaker illustrates an incremental trust‑building workflow: start with small tasks, observe outcomes, expand scope, move to a review‑only mode, and finally full automation once the agent’s suggestions are consistently approved. The video concludes with a promotion for an in‑person AI Freedom Summit in October, inviting viewers to comment “summit” for a link to the event where the speaker will teach the full system.

Here's exactly how to use AI agents in 2026. A, you need to aim it at a problem. What is the goal of the agent? G, you gotta give it a role. Tell it who it is. Are you an assistant? Are you a marketer? Are you a revenue person? Are you a security person? E is equip it with the context. Everything you know about the problem you want it to go solve, give it to it. N is you gotta give it a narrow focus on what it does. An agent has to be very good at one thing. T is trust. Trust it in stages. When I build out my agents, I do a little bit, I see what it does, and then I do a little bit more, I see what it does, and then I get to review mode only, where it's doing all the work and then I'm reviewing it and approving it. Eventually, if 100% of the stuff it asks me to review, I approve, I set it up on automation. If you want to actually know how I implement AI agents into my companies, I'm breaking down the whole system at my AI Freedom Summit in October. It's an event with me in my hometown. I teach you this and way more. If you wanna check it out, just comment summit and I'll send you the link.
