In this brief segment of the YouTube video, the host addresses viewers who feel uncertain about their career direction—whether they are in real estate, accounting, or just starting out. The central question posed is: what business should they launch today? The co‑speaker immediately recommends focusing on AI‑related services, emphasizing a massive, untapped opportunity in implementing AI solutions for small businesses.

And then you can sell a super high leverage skill. And with AI specifically, there's so much value that can get created in a business. And you can, you can always charge a percentage of the value they create. If you can approach a business that has 100 salespeople and say, I think I can automate half of their jobs, that's a huge delta. And one person can do that. And that's the, I mean, that's the beauty of technology. It's also the scary part, but it's the beauty
