Today on the podcast, I want to talk about something that people ask me about all the time and it's a really popular topic when it comes to AI. You know, I cover AI news on the AI Chat podcast, but I want to talk about something else that I focus on and that is my AI Hustle podcast. So over on my AI Hustle podcast, I talk about ways to make money from AI, different side hustles you can do with AI, and essentially how AI can be implemented into your, your business, your software, whatever you're working on to essentially make you money. That's kind of the focus of that podcast, if you already follow it. I think there's a lot of cross pollination between the two podcasts. But I want to talk about a new project I've recently started over with the AI Hustle podcast that I think that if you're interested in this kind of concept of making money or growing your business through AI, I think will be interesting. And that is the AI Hustle school community. So essentially what we've done, I'm sure everyone has one of these where you have this kind of like group chat of your inside people that work on the same thing as you and whatever your industry, your niche or your job is, for me that's all about AI, all about making money from AI. As you know, I have different AI software companies, I have different AI tools that I'm always kind of working on and building. And I have kind of this insider group chat with a bunch of people that are in this field also building things and working with AI, making money with it and that kind of thing. So I wanted to take the concept of this group chat and essentially a lot of it's like insider stuff that I can't exactly talk about publicly or post about publicly because sometimes it has like confidentiality stuff or it's. Yeah, sometimes it's confidential. Going over specific people's products, specific people's, you know, the names of their stores, exactly what they're doing, how they're making money. And you know, it's like stuff I can't always talk about publicly. However, we've created the school community where essentially if you join, it's a paid membership community. It's $25 a month just for this week. I think we'll bump it up to about $50 a month, but for this week it's $25 a month. So if you're interested in joining, you can get the link in the description and we do an insider in depth breakdown of a whole bunch of different side hustles. A whole bunch of different businesses, a bunch of different products that we're all working on in relation to and how we're using AI to essentially augment those. So every single week we have a new exclusive piece of content that you won't find on any other podcast I produce talking about how to actually make money with AI. Now this last week I cover something called the Amazon Influencer Incentive Program. This is something that last year I did. Essentially you make these 10 to 30 second videos that Amazon takes and they post them onto their on their website and they tag products. And last year I did this, My wife and I did this and we made about $12,500. We did it in a few days. We blasted out a whole bunch of videos and anyways, it's something that they are doing again this year. And so if you're interested in this kind of concept of how to use AI to make money, to scale up, to do a bunch of different side hustles or even to augment your own business, because we also talk about how to integrate this with software and different things that we're doing there. Because as you know, I'm building a lot of AI software companies. Go and join the school community. We'd love to have you on board. The link is in the show notes for this. Now I wanted to talk more broadly about what I think the value of a community is and kind of how you can, how this has helped me. So I'm a member of a whole bunch of different AI communities, both on LinkedIn, Facebook and a couple independent ones on different sites. I'm part of the Open AI forum where they have a specific community that OpenAI has like an invite only and they do different webinar and workshops and bring people together to kind of talk about things. The thing that I have noticed is having a community to bounce ideas off of if you don't have that insider group chat that I was talking about earlier is absolutely invaluable. And even if you do have the insider group chat, to be able to expand your network and get access to all these people, I think has been really amazing for myself. Over on LinkedIn, I have groups and communities and different people that I work with. And it's always amazing for me, anytime I have an idea to do with either a new AI feature for my software companies or a new AI product, bouncing it off of these people that are also insiders working on the same thing and getting their take on it has been amazing for me. You know, I host a Podcast with Connor Grennan, the, you know, head of Generative AI over at NYU Stern. And I bounce ideas off of him all the time whenever I want to launch a new product or do a new thing because, you know, he's, he's kind of in this space building these things as well, and that's incredibly invaluable. And I have a whole bunch of people like that, an amazing network. So if you're interested in getting access to a network like this of amazing people that are building and working in AI, these are, you know, we have people in the community that have multi, you know, hundred million dollar companies and we also have people that are mom and pop shop, you know, just looking for ways to integrate AI into their businesses and, you know, influencers, all that kind of stuff, all sorts of different people. But it's amazing to hear the breadth of perspective. If you have questions, you can ask it on our public chat forum. People respond, comment whatever they're working on, and give you feedback on ideas, whatever you're working on. And in addition, I think the real big value to a community like this specifically is that every single week I put out a piece of exclusive content with Jamie, my co host over on the AI Hustle podcast, and we put out a exclusive piece of content that's covering a different tactic or side hustle that we're doing. We break down exactly how much money we're making from it. We break down oftentimes the exact products we're selling, the exact integrations or software features that we're implementing into whatever we're building. And it's an incredible way to get more insights into what's actually working with AI, where businesses are seeing the most efficiency, how to make your company the most efficient. And yeah, if this is something that you're interested in, if you're interested in how to make money from AI and side hustles, I would love to have you as part of the school community. I'll leave a link in the description and I hope that you all have an amazing rest of your day.
