Are you tired of wearing all the marketing hats in your small business? Juggling social media, email campaigns, content creation, and analytics while trying to actually run your business? What if I told you there's a new wave of AI that doesn't just help with tasks - it actually takes control and drives results on its own? The challenge for small businesses has always been competing with larger companies that have entire marketing departments. Traditional marketing automation helped, but it still required significant human oversight and technical expertise. Small business owners were left either spreading themselves too thin or watching opportunities pass them by. But today's guest is here to show us how agentic AI is completely rewriting these rules. Alex Carlson, host of The AI Marketing Navigator podcast and owner of Digital Pop, is at the forefront of this revolution. He's helping small and medium-sized businesses harness the power of autonomous AI to create what he calls an "AI Digital Marketing Department" - giving them enterprise-level marketing capabilities at a fraction of the cost. Alex is not just talking about these technologies - he's implementing them daily for his clients and sharing his insights through his podcast. His work with tools like Clay.com and Lindy.ai is showing small businesses how they can leverage agentic AI to compete with larger competitors, and his practical approach to AI implementation has helped countless businesses transform their marketing operations.

Are you running a small business and feeling constantly overwhelmed by all the AI tools, wearing too many hats, and wondering how competitors seem to get so much more done? What if you could multiply your productivity without expanding your team or working longer hours? The struggle of being a solopreneur or small business owner has always been about limitations – limited time, limited resources, limited capacity. But what if those limitations could be dramatically reduced? Today's small business landscape is more competitive than ever. Big businesses have the advantage of specialized teams, substantial budgets, and advanced tools. Meanwhile, small business owners are drowning in tasks, from marketing and sales to operations and customer service. You're expected to be everything to everyone, and it's simply not sustainable. That's why I'm thrilled to introduce our guest today, Phil Pallen – a brand strategist, keynote speaker, and author of "AI for Small Business." Phil has personally tested over 100 AI tools and has cracked the code on how to operate as what he calls a "1+ business" – delivering the output of a much larger team while maintaining the agility and personal touch that makes small businesses special. He's going to share practical insight into how AI is leveling the playing field and allowing small businesses to punch far above their weight class. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Phil Pallen about: ✨ Start Small, Think Big - Begin with one AI tool that addresses your biggest pain point, then gradually expand your AI tools as you build confidence. ✨ Human-AI Partnership - The most successful implementations of AI in small business maintain the human elements that customers value while automating repetitive tasks. ✨ Competitive Advantage - Small businesses that strategically implement AI tools can effectively compete with larger organizations by achieving similar outputs with fewer resources.

In this episode, Eric Porres, the newly appointed Global Head of AI at Logitech, walks us through his mission to transform a 7,000-person organization into a team of AI-fluent knowledge workers. He shares what his first 100 days looked like—from running a company-wide GenAI survey to personally training over 800 colleagues—and how those efforts laid the foundation for a scalable, human-centered AI strategy.Eric talks about building a culture of “augmented intelligence,” not just through tooling, but through habits, champions, and real behavioural change. He shares practical frameworks—like using AI to improve your prompts, embracing long-form instructions, and designing with role-context-task-output in mind—and explains why measuring success goes beyond usage stats to include depth of interaction and employee NPS.The conversation also looks ahead to the agentic future: personalized AI teammates, embedded workflows, and custom knowledge bases. Whether you're leading AI at a global company or just trying to help your team get started, this episode is full of real-world insights on how to move from AI hype to meaningful adoption.Key Takeaways:AI Fluency Starts with Behaviour, Not Just Tools – Eric's approach isn't about pushing more AI - t's about teaching people how to think differently. From measuring conversation depth to rewriting prompt habits, Logitech is focused on real behavioural change.Train 800, Influence 7,000 – Before becoming Head of AI, Eric trained 800+ colleagues himself. That grassroots effort - combined with identifying “quiet champions” across teams- created the internal momentum for company-wide transformation.Build the Right Interface, Not Just the Right Model – A powerful insight: it's not which model you use, it's how people interact with it. Logitech prioritized intuitive, user-friendly AI experiences to meet employees where they work.From Individual Fluency to Agentic Teams – Looking ahead, Eric envisions a world where employees work alongside custom AI agents. The future isn't just prompt mastery - it's knowing what to delegate, what to own, and how to manage an AI-augmented team.LinkedIn: Eric Porres | LinkedInLogitech: logitech.com/Eric's website: PorresPsychedelic GPT: Trippin' The Chat FantasticThese screenshots showcase how Eric Porres organizes AI research using NotebookLM, as discussed in the episode.NotebookLM Dashboard: NotebookLM Dashboard - Eric PorresNotebookLM Research: NotebookLM Research - March 9-15, 2025 00:00 Intro to Eric Porres 00:46 What the First 100 Days Look Like as Head of AI01:51 Measuring AI Adoption: Surveys, Usage & Quality05:34 Training 800 Colleagues: How Eric Taught AI Mastery19:50 From Side Role to Head of AI: Eric's Transition Story23:02 Scaling AI Across Teams: Tools, Access & Equity28:56 Choosing the Right Model for the Right Job30:28 Measuring Success: NPS, Feedback, and Real Usage32:05 The Rise of AI Champions and Teaching as Proof of Mastery34:31 Beyond Fluency: Preparing for the Agentic Future36:45 Atomizing Workflows: Making AI Work for You39:10 AI in Sales & Customer Service: The Agent Use Case43:26 Personal Knowledge Bases and AI-Augmented Thinking50:49 Final Thoughts and Takeaways
Has your creative work been secretly fed to AI systems without your knowledge or consent? Across the creative landscape, from journalism to literature to visual arts, professionals are discovering their life's work has been quietly scraped, processed, and monetized by tech companies building the next generation of AI tools.We pull back the curtain on what many are calling theft at an unprecedented scale. Meta's controversial harvesting of 81 terabytes from shadow libraries to train their Llama models. OpenAI and Microsoft facing lawsuits from major newspapers whose archives now power competing AI systems. The startling reality that creative works are being absorbed by machines programmed to mimic—and potentially replace—their human creators.The legal landscape is transforming in response, with dramatically different approaches emerging worldwide. The US Copyright Office questions whether AI training constitutes infringement while the UK proposes an opt-out system that artists condemn as a "default license to steal." Meanwhile, the EU demands transparency about training data, and Australia calls for stronger creator protections. As courts grow skeptical of expansive fair use claims, new models are taking shape: collective licensing systems, creator opt-in platforms, and calls for a global WIPO treaty to harmonize rights across borders.At its core, this isn't just about legal technicalities—it's about the future of human creativity itself. Can AI innovation flourish without erasing the value of human labor? The decisions we make today will determine whether copyright remains meaningful in a world where machines can copy everything. Join us as we navigate this critical intersection of innovation and authorship, and explore what a balanced future might look like—one where AI assists creators rather than replacing them. Subscribe now to stay informed as this pivotal battle for creative ownership unfolds.Send us a text
AI Training Is Killing Wikipedia by Nick Espinosa, Chief Security Fanatic
Have you ever wondered if we're slowly losing our humanity in the rush to adopt AI? Every day, another marketer proclaims they've automated their entire workflow, created the perfect AI system, or generated flawless content. But what if perfection isn't what your audience really wants? The truth is, we're facing an unprecedented challenge in marketing. As AI tools become more sophisticated, they're creating a world of perfect content, pristine images, and meticulously crafted messages. But in this pursuit of perfection, we're at risk of losing the very thing that makes marketing effective - our human touch. That's why I'm thrilled to welcome long-time friend and colleague Mark Schaefer to the show today. Mark is one of the world's most recognized marketing experts, a globally-acclaimed keynote speaker, and the author of 10 best-selling marketing books.

Mark has worked with organizations like Microsoft, Adidas, and Johnson & Johnson, helping them navigate the intersection of technology and human connection in marketing. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Mark Schaefer about: ✨ Human Authenticity Wins: Creating authentic, imperfect content that resonates with real people outperforms AI-generated perfection. ✨ Balance is Critical: Success lies in finding the sweet spot between AI efficiency and human creativity. ✨ Shared Experiences Matter: Building community and creating shared moments will become increasingly valuable in an AI-driven world.

Traditionally a warning to tyrants and rogue emperors, todays middle of March madness opened with news of Google Core Update rollout, a major vulnerability in a popular WP SEO plug-in, and signs American search users are indicating they're thinking about being in a very sour mood. We also note it is the 15th anniversary of the week Rhea Drysdale saved SEO from a notorious trademark abuser. The Googleopoly woke up to see the US DOJ's 4 remedies to settle the larger of two anti-trust cases. OpenAI calls for free access for all copyrighted materials for AI Training (citing national security), while the Columbia School of Journalism notes how AI Search engines are "confidently wrong too often". Speaking of tyrannical behaviour, Mullenweg is still wegging out over WPEngine and Meta wants its advertisers to connect to GA4. We also talk about how to talk to Google AIO to learn what it thinks about your business, site reputation abuse, robots.txt, low effort content, and so much more...Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/webcology/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Remember your first email marketing campaign? Or maybe you're old enough to remember when "digital marketing" meant updating your GeoCities website? Well, just like those marketers who dismissed email as a fad in the '90s, there are those today who are missing the signs of AI's transformative power in marketing. Every day, I talk to marketers who are either paralyzed by AI's complexity or, worse, dismissing it as just another overhyped trend. They're making the same mistake marketers made with social media in 2008, mobile in 2010, and video marketing in 2015. The cost of waiting to adapt isn't just falling behind – it's becoming irrelevant. The challenge isn't just learning AI – it's understanding how we got here and where we're headed. Without this context, marketers risk making costly mistakes, investing in the wrong tools, or missing critical opportunities that could define their careers. That's why I'm thrilled to welcome Katie King to the show today. Katie is the author of "AI Strategy for Sales and Marketing" and has been at the forefront of digital transformation for over two decades. She's worked with global brands including Virgin, Samsung, and PwC, helping them navigate the evolution from basic automation to today's AI-powered marketing landscape. As a visiting lecturer at several universities and CEO of AI in Business, Katie brings both historical perspective and practical insights to help us understand where marketing technology has been – and more importantly, where it's going. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Katie King about: ✨ History Repeats Itself: AI adoption follows familiar patterns seen in previous marketing technology revolutions. ✨ Evolution Not Revolution: Understanding AI's gradual integration helps marketers adapt more effectively. ✨ Future-Proof Foundation: Historical context provides the framework for making better AI implementation decisions.

What if I told you that the business you're running today could operate with just 20% of your current staff? It sounds impossible, right? Maybe even a little scary. But here's the thing - businesses across the globe are discovering that with the right AI implementation, they can not only maintain their operations but actually improve them with dramatically smaller teams. The traditional business model has always been simple: want to grow? Hire more people. Need more output? Add more staff. But this approach is becoming outdated, expensive, and increasingly unnecessary. The challenge isn't just about cutting costs - it's about reimagining how a modern business can operate in the age of AI. Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Chris Daigle, CEO of ChiefAIOfficer.com and a pioneer in AI business transformation. Chris isn't just theorizing about the future of lean business operations - he's living it.

Ladies, have you ever felt like the tech world was designed without you in mind? You're not alone. While artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the way we do business, there's a concerning trend: women entrepreneurs are significantly less likely to adopt AI tools than their male counterparts. But here's the thing - when women do embrace AI, they're not just succeeding; they're revolutionizing how these tools are used in marketing and business. The hesitation is real. From feeling like they're cheating to concerns about losing the human touch in their businesses, many women entrepreneurs are sitting on the sidelines of the AI revolution. But what if I told you that by not embracing AI, you're actually making your work harder and missing out on opportunities to scale your business while maintaining authenticity? That's why I'm thrilled to introduce today's guest, Kinsey Soderberg. As the founder of Feel Good Social and Authentic AI, Kinsey has become a leading voice in helping entrepreneurs leverage AI without sacrificing their authentic brand voice. Through her signature programs like AI Reels Club and Brand Blueprint for ChatGPT, she's helping business owners save up to 15 hours a week while maintaining that crucial human connection. Her human-first approach to AI has transformed the way entrepreneurs, particularly women, view and use artificial intelligence in their businesses. The AI Hat Podcast host Mike Allton asked Kinsey Soderberg about: ✨ Start Small, Think Big: Breaking down AI adoption into manageable steps while keeping the bigger picture in mind. ✨ Authenticity Meets Automation: Using AI to enhance, not replace, your unique brand voice and personal touch. ✨ Community Over Competition: Building a supportive network of women entrepreneurs using AI to revolutionize marketing.

Have you ever wondered why some marketing teams seem to effortlessly integrate AI into their strategies while others struggle to get started?

Today, we're diving into the fascinating world of AI adoption in marketing, and how a simple shift in thinking can lead to extraordinary results. In the fast-paced realm of digital marketing, staying ahead of the curve isn't just about having the latest tools—it's about embracing a new way of thinking.

AGI will require the convergence of various types of intelligence, such as vision, sensory input, and probabilistic reasoning, which are still under development. Current AI efforts focus more on building domain-specific competencies rather than generalized intelligence.AI as an Augmentative Tool: The discussion highlighted that AI is primarily being developed to augment human intelligence rather than replace it. Whether through improving productivity in monotonous tasks or enabling greater precision in areas like medical imaging, AI's role is to empower individuals and organizations by enhancing existing processes and uncovering new efficiencies.The Role of Large Action Models: Large action models represent an exciting frontier in AI, moving beyond planning and recommendations to executing tasks autonomously, with human authorization. This capability holds potential to revolutionize industries by handling complex workflows end-to-end, drastically reducing manual intervention.The Future of Personal AI Assistants: Personal AI tools have the potential to act as highly capable assistants by leveraging vast amounts of contextual and personal data. However, the technology is in its early stages, and significant progress is needed to make these assistants truly seamless and impactful in day-to-day tasks like managing schedules, filling out forms, or making informed recommendations.Decentralization and Data Ownership: Reuben highlighted the importance of a decentralized web where individuals retain ownership of their data, as opposed to the centralized platforms that dominate today. This shift could empower users, reduce reliance on large tech companies, and unlock new opportunities for personalized and secure interactions online.Impact on Work and Productivity: AI is set to reshape the workforce by automating repetitive tasks, freeing up time for more creative and fulfilling work. The rise of AI-augmented roles could lead to smaller, more efficient teams in businesses, while creating new opportunities for freelancers and independent contractors to thrive in a liquid labor market.Challenges and Opportunities in Industry Disruption: Certain industries, like software, which are less regulated, are likely to experience rapid transformation due to AI. However, heavily regulated sectors, such as legal and finance, may take longer to adapt. The discussion also touched on how startups and agile companies can pressure larger organizations to adopt AI-driven solutions, ultimately redefining competitive landscapes.
