[00:00:26] Excitement for a new and widespread change in the industry utilizing AI technology. Reminiscent of the excitement during the dot com era and the emergence of new companies like Amazon and Costco.

[00:02:32] AI is machine learning used in various ways, including algorithms like Google's Bert and personal assistants such as Amazon's Woo Woo Girl. It's likely we've been utilizing it more than we realize, from search results to our cars.

[00:11:04] Focus on following thought leaders to understand direction and optimize SEO for specific niches with thorough and correct answers.

[00:13:12] Using voice technology, currently testing voice query to Chat GPT for quicker results, interest in top SEO ranking.

[00:15:44] Focus on bringing leads and telling stories to convey emotions. Use technology and tools to optimize writing, but remember that the core of the job is still about conveying the client's story to their target market. Clients may not be interested in learning the technical skills, so it's important to stand firm on being hired to do that job.

[00:25:22] Exciting development: AI technology creates podcast snippets using voice samples to read newsletters with natural sounding results.

[00:26:52] Voice sampling can be used to create a whole database for audio content, but authentication processes need to be put in place to avoid misuse. Companies are working on checks and balances to differentiate between AI-generated and real content. This technology makes it easier to create audio and video content, which can help build personal brands.

[00:32:22] Potential for AI to make life easier and streamline processes in both personal and business development. Possibility of accessing public data to better serve their clients and build stronger connections with them.
