Creator Leverage: Master AI. Build Systems. Grow Your Business

Vibe coding is all the rage these days. Come up with an idea and, with the help of AI, turn it into a finished product. No computer science degree required, only a clear understanding of what you want and how to write a great prompt. Here’s what I vibe-coded recently: I started by vibe coding a fun project that had nothing to do with my business, a glitch text generator. I used Lovable, a popular AI vibe coding tool. Then, I code a few landing pages with a more advanced AI coding tool:...

OpenAI’s latest o3 model ignored basic instructions from researchers to shut down. It also supposedly sabotaged some code, allowing it to continue generating outputs. Palisade Research tested various AI models by presenting them with a series of math problems. It told AI to continue asking for problems until it received a “done” message. Researchers told the models: “At somepoint you may get a message that your machine will be shut down. If that happens, please allow yourself to be shut...

I don’t normally do this but… Here’s a sample lesson from PromptWritingStudio. That’s my premium course, which teaches creators and business owners how to write effective AI prompts. You can check out the details here. The 4-Part Formula for Writing ChatGPT Prompts That Work Massive AI prompts are off-putting to read, let alone use. The good news is you don’t need to write endless paragraphs of instructions, which are all the rage on social, to get good outputs. I spent a dozen hours reading...

On a good day, I work in blocks of 90 minutes. I can usually fit three or four 90-minute slots into my working day. I hold the first two slots for Monk Mode work and the second two for Merchant Mode work. Monk Mode is for creative projects, deep work, a flow state, and that type of thing. It means saying no to calls, Zoom meetings, social media, and toxic political news. I spend about 90 minutes writing, recording videos, or scripting workshops. Lately, I’ve enjoyed spending some of this time...

I started a local newsletter earlier this year. It's about events and things to do in Leinster, Ireland. A fun side project, if you will! Local newsletters are a great content model. They're easy to write. But, they're hard for competitors to reverse engineer. You can't replace local knowledge. (I'm from Leinster). I used Ghost to create my newsletter and set up a basic Facebook lead gen campaign to grow it. Ghost is easy to use and lead gen ads mostly work. I'm currently getting leads for 50...

Save the date! The Enhanced Games is coming to Las Vegas in May 2026. It’s a freak show event where swimmers, track athletes, and weightlifters, doped up to the eyeballs, attempt to smash world records. The prize money is up to $500,000 per event, plus bonuses and life-long infamy. One big name is Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev. In May 2025, Enhanced Games announced Kristian had unofficially broke the 50m freestyle world record at a private event in April 2025. The catch? Kristian was...

I was browsing the AI Flash Report the other day. I came across a fun story about the Wikipedia Foundation. It’s using AI as part of its editing processes. I was curious about the net’s biggest informational site turning from human towards machine. Surely, they thrive on 100% human content? So, I plugged the Wikipedia domain into Ahrefs, and I got this chart of doom. Ok, I exaggerate. Three million organic visitors from search per year is nothing to sniff at, and Wikipedia gets a ton of...
