In this brief, high‑energy monologue the speaker announces the launch of part 2 of a seven‑part live webinar series titled “How to Think Like an AI Solutions Architect.” The series is built around a self‑authored booklet called the “21 Laws of AI Solutions Architecture,” which originated from an initial brainstorm that grew to 22 ideas before being trimmed to 21. The speaker explains that each weekly session (Wednesday evenings at 8 PM ET) will cover three of these laws, with the first live session focusing on: (1) learning from failure and being vulnerable with customers, (2) documenting everything so that future documentation becomes unnecessary, and (3) experimenting with new tools to stay current in AI technologies. The presenter shares personal background – stumbling into solution architecture, loving the blend of problem‑solving, helping people, and generating high revenue (over a billion dollars in AI software and services over ten years). The talk emphasizes that solution architecture is both a lucrative career and a mindset that can be taught, encouraging viewers to register via a QR code or link, and noting the use of Restream for a better live‑viewing experience. The speaker invites the audience to join, promises deeper insights into the three laws, and highlights the broader value of adopting a solution‑architect mindset.

Hey everybody, it is so exciting to see you all. Um, I have been on a whirlwind tour, uh, all across the United States this week, but I wanted to come on really quick. In about 4 minutes, we are going to be starting a really cool webinar that I've put together. It is actually part 2 of a 7-part series. Um, I wrote a booklet about 3 weeks ago, uh, just a brainstorm session on all of the things that I think about when I have done solution architecture, specifically AI solution architecture, in my career. And I just, as I started writing down all these ideas, I like kept going and going and going. And all of a sudden I ended up with like 22, I think. But I didn't feel like 22 was a good number, so I took one off. And I always tell people, like, if you actually take my class, you'll learn which one I took away. But now it's 21 Laws of AI Solutions Architecture. So we're doing a webinar right now. So this right here, I hope you can see it, is the QR code. So join the webinar. You have to register to join because I like to know who my family is when they come and hang out with me. But I'm about to spend— in 3 minutes, I'm gonna go and talk all about, um, the, the next 3. So for 7 weeks, we're gonna go through 3 laws at a time about my personal experience. Um, and, and here's why I think it's interesting, because I stumbled into the world of solution architecture but found out I absolutely loved it. And I think most people would love it, uh, mainly because it allows you to build solutions to people's problems. And that's usually what most of us want to do. I want to help people, and solutions architecture is a great way to do that. But more importantly, it allowed me to sell software, sell products, sell services for companies, and make a lot of money doing that as well. So it was this beautiful combination of me doing what I love to do, help people and do something extremely valuable to an organization and a business. And so I wanted to make sure that you all knew exactly what that looked like, how to get a role that's similar and potentially put yourself on a new trajectory in your career. 2 minutes away. So sign up. I hope you'll join me in the webinar. I'm going to definitely be opening it up shortly. For those of you who are friends of mine, good to see you all. It's so good to see everybody. It's nice. I'm on Restream right now. So thank you, Restream, for, you know, building version 2.0 of your platform. It is so much better. I can actually see all of my people, all my friends at the same time, where before I had to like keep all these windows open. So it's so cool to see you all. I don't have chat open, but I should say hello. If you are here and watching me live, just type #live in the chat. Um, you could tell me where you're coming from. It would be awesome to see you. But of course, I would really love for you all, if you're interested in understanding what I've done to sell over a billion dollars in AI software and services over the last 10 years of my career, if you want to know like the secrets to my, you know, my success, if you will, my— the things I think about, the way I do the things that I do, what makes me— what people people used to say to me that I was like different than most. What I found out is I was like, once people know what to do, we can all be successful in this field. And the world needs solution architects in every area. Like, so many of us approach a problem and maybe kind of get bummed out by the problem. And we kind of get stuck in the problem. Solutions architect is not just a role, it's a mindset. It's a way of being. It is a super amazing opportunity to just see the world through a different lens. Um, and so I'm excited to share with you, this is the second one every Wednesday night at 8 PM Eastern time. Sorry to my friends that are overseas, I'm going to change the time maybe as we get towards the end of the session. But every Wednesday night at 8 PM, you can join this link, register for the webinar, and you can join me every Wednesday. And you'll hear the next 3. So the next 3, we're gonna do Today, um, actually, uh, in our session, which I'm going to do right now— I'm about to hang up and go join my friends— we're going to talk all about learning from failure and how important that is to be vulnerable enough with your customers and let them know that you have receipts. You put in the reps and you know what you're talking about. Number 2, how to document everything so that you eventually don't have to document anything. It's pretty amazing process that I'll share with you. And then finally, experiment with new tools. So I'm going to talk to you about how I stay current in the technologies that we're doing, and I'm going to be diving into all this. We spend about an hour together on this webinar, so here's your last chance. Hey everybody, it's so good to see you all. Thank you all for being here.
