You’re Still Using AI Like It’s 2023

Most people are still using AI like it is 2023. They use ChatGPT like a search engine, ask random questions, and stop there. In this video, I break down the three levels of AI usage from open loops to end to end workflows to fully closed loop systems that recursively improve themselves over time. I walk through practical examples including travel planning workflows, AI sales systems, autonomous agents, Slack based collaboration, YouTube content packaging, investment research, and how I personally use Hermes and OpenClaw agents every day. I also show how AI agents can work together inside Slack, connect to tools like Google, Meta, SEO platforms, X, and internal systems, and become true thought partners instead of simple chatbots. If you want to actually understand how to use AI for leverage instead of just experimentation, this is the framework.
