Let's talk about the moment your side hustle becomes a real business. Now I see way too many founders stay stuck running their business like it's a hobby. And then they wonder why nothing ever feels real. It doesn't feel real because it's not. I've helped thousands of entrepreneurs build real businesses through Impact Theory University. And the first step in the path to building a legit business is registering it. And Tailor Brands will help you do just that in a few clicks. An LLC, a Limited Liability Company, is an official business structure. It's inexpensive to form and very simple to maintain. It's how you open a business bank account. It's how customers know they're dealing with a real company. And Tailor Brands doesn't stop at the filing. Their dashboard tracks what comes next based on what your business actually needs. So EIN number, registered agent, licenses and permits, bookkeeping, business banking.

I tell every founder the same thing. Just make it official. Click the link in the show notes to check out Tailor Brands and get started on your business today. This is a paid advertisement. Where AI is going is going to be the most aggressive bordering on violent debate that we are going to have. And there was a really fascinating video on Diary Of A CEO, where he brought together all the different angles on AI and just had them collide and debate. And I think a lot of things are getting lost in this. We're going to fill in all the cracks. But take a look at this. This is wild.

SPEAKER_3 (1:57)

I want to agree with you on something you said, but I'll define AI and that will help us. We use the term AI to mean three different technologies, completely unrelated, and that's what probably creates this debate.

AI as a useful tool, as a standard technology we always had, narrow system makes you more productive, more creative. Everyone loves it, supports it. I'm a computer scientist, I'm an engineer. I want more of it.

Tom Bilyeu (2:22)

Here's what we have to understand, people do not even agree on what AI is. I thought this was a fascinating place to pick up this conversation. That's what you're about to see. Each of these guys is looking at AI in a fundamentally different way, and whoever ends up being right, we better hope that policy is on their side, because right now, I think this is what we have to come to an understanding on. What is AI? What is it likely to do? What are the most likely scenarios? How do we limit the downsides? But if we can't agree on what it is, we are going to rip ourselves apart at the policy level.

SPEAKER_3 (2:53)

AI we're starting to have now, GPT-6 level, human level, AGI level. We can argue about what that means.

Some dangers, like any human, they're unsafe like a human would be unsafe.

Tom Bilyeu (3:05)

I think that is a brilliant insight. Right now, people are like, hold on a second, this AI, like it can do a crazy thing, all hell is gonna break loose. It's like, do you know how many smart, literally mentally ill people we have running around the world that mean you harm, and we're still able to keep that stuff in check?

He's giving, he's quite alarmist in my read. He's great though, by the way. I had him on the show, very, very important thinker for people to engage with. I think he's pushing this too far. We'll get more into that in a second. But I think this is a really powerful insight. Keep in mind that right now, a lot of the stuff that people are building the hysteria around is because the setup of the testing environments was stupid. It was human error. Humans, we know how to keep something very, very smart in check. Don't lose sight of that.

SPEAKER_3 (3:48)

But if we introduce them into the research cycle, they are automated scientist, automated engineer.

SPEAKER_4 (3:54)

What do you mean by that? Introducing them into the research cycle.
