Welcome to Money and Wealth with John O. Bryant, a production of the Black Effect podcast network and iHeartRadio. Hey, hey, it's John Hope Bryant and this is Money and Wealth and an exciting episode. I am talking about artificial intelligence. Once again, one of my very important focus areas for 2025 and 2026. We're doing as a whole series, so buckle up. So I'm in my office, downtown Atlanta, the offices for the global corporation. There was a time where everything happened here, or it didn't happen at all. If you weren't sitting behind one of these computers, if you were not sitting in one of these cubicles, if you're not in an office meeting, then nothing mattered. It didn't record, it didn't happen. You needed the infrastructure. You needed this system. And before this there was another system. And now we're about to experience a whole new way of life through AI. And it doesn't require you to sit in this office building. Now, we gather here for a different reason. It's building culture. I think culture is cool. I like making smart sexy, as, you know, if one of my phrases. And I think that by getting people together and gathering, it matters. But for you to benefit from the power of artificial intelligence, you don't necessarily need all this infrastructure that I have and that we've paid millions of dollars for. You can do this right from where you sit. I don't want you to be afraid of AI. I don't want you to be pushing away from the table because you're afraid that artificial intelligence is going to take your job. Thinking about people who occupy the seats of my company, I've told them, and I'm telling you what I told them, your job's not going to be replaced by AI. Your job is going to be replaced by someone who can use AI. And I hope it's you as in them. But one thing that's absolutely the case. Everybody's got to become comfortable with artificial intelligence very quickly. This is not optional. It's not the cassette tape. This is not the dvd. This is not a movement to digital music or something. This is not even the Internet, which was quite powerful. You had an option, whether you wanted to use it or not. This is not that there are no options. This is the new world. And I want to teach you, I want to inspire you to participate in it. So let me explain. Explain first where we came from so that you understand how powerful this moment is and what it compares to. I've told you, it doesn't compare to, you know, any other sort of transformations in American society. So let's. We have to go back a hundred years. We'd have to come back 125 years. We have to go back almost 200 years. To give you a snapshot of what this moment looks like. Think about 1850, the horse and buggy. Think about 1860-1870-1880-1890, 1900. Those periods were defined by the horse and buggy. It was defined by the horse. The horse was machinery. The horse was luxury. The Horse was wealth, the horse was transportation. The horse was flossing, right? Think about the Mercedes of this day. That was your horse. Think about your Louis Vuitton. Whatever it is that you think is flossing, that was a horse. Whatever you believe is wealth, that was horse. However you brought in your crops, that was led by the horse. In fact, 1 out of 10 jobs in 1870, ish, 1 out of 10 jobs was a farrier. A farrier is somebody who changes horseshoes. And my guess is a number of other jobs were tied to folks tied to the farrier. So the folks who gave the metal for the horseshoes or the iron, the folks who gave the staples or the mini nails, the tacks, the horseshoe hammer, all of the pieces, the medicines case there was an infection. A lot of industries ground up around a farrier. This was everything. We got the word phrase horsepower from the horse being the center of our universe. But by 1901 you had a surge of automobile companies, this new invention that showed up. By 1910, you had 100 automobiles companies. A lot of them failed, by the way. But by 1910, one thing was absolutely sure, the most valuable use of the horse. I'm sorry to hurt the feelings of horse lovers. I don't mean this intentional, it's not personal. I'm just telling you what history says. The most valuable thing for a horse by 1920 or 1910 ish, was glue. As in horse glue or horse as glue. The automobile changed everything. So we're going to go. That took 60 years, ladies and gentlemen. We're going to go from the horse being the center of the universe to the automobile that was 60 years, to labor of human beings with the beginning of industrialization. We're to go from being labor centric to technology centric in six years between 2025, 2024, I really believe is when it started in 2030. By the. By 2030, you won't recognize the world as we know it today. But don't be afraid, right? I want you to be empowered. I want you to embrace this. So I'm here to talk to you today. If you got limited times and you want your friends to listen to this episode, I want you to tell them to start around marker seven, minute seven where John Bryant gets into this. So the title of this podcast today is Rebuilding the World with AI Millionaire opportunities hiding in plain sight. Get out your pen and pencil or your iPad, or your iPhone or your Android, whatever it is you take notes on. Let's time. It's time to take the time to Write the future of time for yourself. So start writing your business plan because if you're not writing it, it's not real. What's the difference between a hustler and a businessman or a businesswoman? Paperwork, details, documentation. I want you to document this because this just might be one of the most important conversations in your life because it's going to help you to pivot. Let me tell you what AI is not very quickly. It's not checking sports results. You can do that on it with an Internet search. This is not a fancy Internet search, right? This is the beginning of everything. Artificial intelligence. I use AI as my co creator in my life. That's right. I use artificial intelligence as a co creator in my life. So as I'm doing something, I turn to artificial intelligence to help me make up time, to quicken things, to cut through the haze. But I know what I want to get to. I know what I'm trying to solve. I use this global machine of artificial intelligence to help me get there. That's just, that's my purposes. Now let me tell you in a practical way. You, I'm talking to you now. Somebody who's not in an office building, not running a multi million dollar corporation, not saying you're not. I'm saying this is the average person, what can you do? So let me tell you this quick story about a young man and I want to give Gary Vee credit for inspiring me to do this as an example. Young man or young woman who's 14 or 15 years of age and they have mastered artificial intelligence. They have gotten this down. They are a techno geek like I grew up being a techno geek. They're in a small town or a medium sized city and they're going to start calling around to small businesses and saying, Mr. And Mrs. Small Business, you have a website that you paid 4,000, 5,000, maybe $20,000 for. Let's just pick a middle range. $5,000 for that website five years ago, eight years ago. It's outdated. I can, I will, with the help of artificial intelligence and plugging you into E commerce like Shopify, et cetera, I'm going to redo your whole website and update it for $500. So it costs you 5,000. I'm willing to update it for 500. How many takers do you think that young man or young woman would get on that little idea? I'm gonna let you think about that for a moment because if somebody had called me with that offer, as a hustling small business owner, I don't have time to change my mind. I don't have time to check my website. I don't understand artificial intelligence. I'm trying to meet payroll. I got too much money. At the end of my money I'm hustling from can't see in the morning to can't see at night. I would say yes, sure, particularly if he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. If that young man, if that kid using AI tools like ChatGPT, my favorite. I'm co chair of the AI Ethics Council with my friend Sam Altman. Or Wix, AI Wix or Shopify Magic, right? Or all the other tools. Google and everybody else has their own tools now, right? I would charge $500 if I was this kid and I would see the business immediately lift. And if the kid does 10 of these a month, that's $5,000. Do it for a year, that's $60,000. This is middle class income. Now add some strategy, you've got a six figure business. Add a team, you've got a million dollar agency. Let me be very specific. As you know I like math because it doesn't have an opinion. That's a Melody Hobson quote that I have co opted and I give her credit for it, she's a friend. If you did, if this young man or young woman in a medium sized city targeted this strategy on dominating this area of AI upgrading of software and did over the course of a year, 2,000 contracts for $500 each, which again, these are not crazy numbers. That young man or young woman, right, would be a millionaire on paper. In other words, they'd have a million dollar revenue business at 2,000 contracts and that's 160 contracts, give or take a month. It's not unreasonable. 160 contracts a month is about five new contracts, six new contracts a day. Now you have to be really assertive to do that as a person, as an individual. But think if you had a team of three or four people doing this, three or four young people with endless boundless energy just walking door to door, knocking on doors, saying can I upgrade your website? Can I upgrade your website? Sign here this new contract can upgrade your website. Sign here, we'll schedule you. And then once you got three or four of these signed up, then you use that as credibility to go get some others signed up. Because you say, look, I've got Joe, Jack and Schmo around the corner who've already signed a contract with me. You couldn't show the contract privacy rules, but you could tell the new client, the new prospective client, who the other clients were that have signed up to your business. And now the new ones want to sign up because the old one, because the risk is already rung out of this model, you've gotten other people to take the risk on you. So they say, yes, I'll do it too. This is not a very complicated example, is it? What if I told you that everything around you, literally everything, is about to be rebuilt with artificial intelligence, with AI, and you can be the one to do it. Now, I just gave you again, that was inspired by Gary V. But there's so many examples that you can now imagine for yourself and I'm going to help you with some of those. Let's now think about the great AI. Rebuild every industry, every tool, every process is being completely reimagined right now. The fear is out front in everybody's minds. Because if you're a corporate leader today, racing with your competitor, these are big companies now to invest in AI. Essentially what you're doing is trying to become what they call efficient. And there's a guesstimate now that artificial intelligence will increase businesses efficiency by about 30%. That means in the short term, extraction. It means anything that can be processed, remove it, repetitive process, remove it, replace it with automation, robotics, artificial intelligence technology, et cetera. That means people in the short term. So the fear in everybody's mind is I'm going to lose my job. And if you're in customer service or some of these low level fields, that might be actually the case. If you're making six figures and the business that you're in can be processed then in time. If you're working for somebody else, that might mean you too. Yes. What did I say to you earlier? You're not going to lose your job because of AI or to AI. You're going to lose your job to somebody who can use AI. I want to teach you now how to use AI so you can make money and build wealth.
