How to Use AI to Grow Revenue in 2026

Most businesses are still using AI the wrong way. They are stuck using ChatGPT like a search engine while the companies moving fastest are building end to end workflows, autonomous agents, and closed loop systems that compound over time. In this video, I break down the four levels of AI adoption in business, why most teams fail with implementation, and how to actually build systems that increase revenue instead of creating more busy work.
