From AM Radios to Artificial Intelligence: Lessons on Adapting to Technological Change with Kevin SuraceIn this episode, host Josh Elledge sits down with Kevin Surace—keynote speaker, futurist, inventor, and serial entrepreneur—to explore the evolution of technology from AM radios to artificial intelligence. Kevin blends nostalgia for classic tech with practical, forward-thinking insights on AI adoption, prompting listeners to consider how curiosity, thoughtful engagement, and strategic use of new tools can shape the future of work and creativity. This blog distills the episode's key lessons, offering actionable guidance for anyone navigating the rapidly shifting AI landscape.Navigating the Evolution of Technology and AI AdoptionKevin opens the conversation by sharing his childhood fascination with AM radios—a hands-on era of tuning, scanning, listening, and learning. He draws parallels between the deep engagement of early radio culture and the modern world of content creation, emphasizing that authenticity and curiosity remain timeless principles. The discussion shifts to artificial intelligence, where Kevin explains that while AGI remains a debated milestone, today's AI models already surpass human capabilities across many domains, much like Excel automated complex math decades ago.He stresses that success with AI begins with crafting thoughtful inputs: detailed prompts, clearly expressed opinions, and iterative refinement. Rather than replacing human intelligence, AI amplifies it—freeing people to focus on judgment, creativity, and strategy. Kevin also breaks down the importance of choosing the right model for the task, noting that different models (Gemini, GPT-5, Claude, Perplexity, Grok) specialize in different strengths, and users should experiment widely.The episode closes with a practical discussion on AI adoption in the workplace. Kevin highlights the gap between awareness and action inside organizations—only about 2% of non-tech companies are meaningfully using AI—and explains why leadership must champion an “AI-first” mindset. He encourages individuals to experiment independently, share wins, and use AI as a collaborator rather than a shortcut, ensuring thinking and insight remain at the center of the process.About Kevin SuraceKevin Surace is a distinguished keynote speaker, futurist, and inventor with over 95 patents. Known for his thought leadership on AI, innovation, and the future of work, Kevin has founded multiple companies and advises organizations on adopting emerging technologies responsibly and effectively.

Because, as you know, a lot of those black hat tactics, you know, have come and gone. you also have the, you know, the rebates that everybody was doing, and now it's kind of leveled the playing field a little bit more. Tell me what you're doing that's been working for you guys.Matt 00:00:55  Yeah. So first off, I think that the biggest thing is making sure you have a big enough budget to launch your products.Matt 00:01:02  like the days of 5 to $10,000 budgets to launch products are just gone in my eyes, at least in the spaces that I work in. so we usually overestimate our budgets by like 20 to 30% of what we actually think it would be just to make sure that we're in a good place in case it doesn't go the way that we want it to. but outside of that, we're looking for a couple of major things. one is we want to see continued growth in the category. Amazon's making that way easier now with like the search query reports, the product Opportunity Explorer. There's so many internal tools that they're giving you access to now that you can really easily find that. And then the other big thing that we're looking for is categories that you've got maybe like 3 or 4 power players in. And by power players they aren't really doing that much. They're still kind of growing, but they're ahead of like the other 20 items there. really it just kind of is showing us that, hey, there's enough sales to go around.Matt 00:02:01  If these four people can all kind of be around the same and customers really don't care which one they're choosing right now, they're just basically picking whichever ones at the top from what we can see. So yeah, we used to go into very heavy like categories where you would just, I mean, like launches would be half 1 million to $1 million. Wow. and if you could make them work. Yeah. The payback is amazing because of the volume that some of those categories do. But if you lose, like, it absolutely sucks. so for sure, what we're looking at like 50 to $75,000, to launch a product right now and the supplement space that we're kind of going after, and we've seen it, it's kind of the sweet spot for everything. so if we do find a product and we think it's going to cost more than that to actually launch it, we'll hold off for a bit and see if we can find some other ones that are within our kind of thresholds.Josh 00:02:53  That makes sense.Josh 00:02:54  So how do you estimate, you know, that budget, right. What's the difference between a half 1 million to $1 million product launch budget versus something that's 50 to $75,000? And how do you estimate that?Matt 00:03:07  Yeah. So the the biggest thing is ads. I mean, we've really in the last like three months, all of our launches have been almost exclusively on Amazon through Amazon Ads. so we're pulling averages of cost per clicks through the advertising API and really just looking at, okay, what is the conversion rate of the top products? If we wanted to spend to get that conversion rate on that keyword, like what would it cost us per day and working that backwards? the other big thing that I don't know anyone else that's kind of touched on this, but what we what we've been doing here recently is we have a seller account where we'll create the product beforehand. It's not the product that we're actually going to sell. We'll put some items as merchant fulfilled, and then we'll just have ourselves by the products.Matt 00:03:54  So that way we get all the search query report data for that product before we actually launch it.Josh 00:03:58  Oh, that's that's fascinating. So you do that in a separate account then? Is that what you're saying?Matt 00:04:03  We've been doing it in the same account, just like a different brand name. and throw up a listing merchant fulfilled and do a couple buys through it, and then you get all that data.Josh 00:04:14  Intere...

Collect unlimited free verifiable CPD for UK Dentists here >>> https://www.dentistswhoinvest.com/videos/smart-ways-to-reduce-your-finance-repayments-with-kevin-saunders———————————————————————Cash flow feeling tight while your practice ambitions keep growing? We dive into the real mechanics of refinancing for dentists and show how the right structure can lower monthly payments, unlock equity, and create the headroom to expand with confidence. Rather than chasing a headline rate, we focus on the three levers that truly move the needle: loan amount, interest rate, and term—and how blended and partially amortising loans can beat a small rate cut when it comes to monthly affordability.Kevin breaks down why refinancing is broader than most owners realise, from releasing capital to buy equipment or a second site, to restructuring short-term debts that strain cash flow. We explore blended loans that combine property and goodwill into one manageable term, interest-only elements that help a deal service when goodwill valuations are high, and unsecured options up to mid-six figures that avoid valuation and legal fees. For startups that have grown fast, we explain how stronger accounts after 18–24 months can open the door to cheaper, longer-term facilities that consolidate asset finance and free cash to complete surgeries.You'll hear practical, anonymised case studies: clients cutting thousands per month by shifting to partially amortising structures without borrowing more, buyers who held repayments steady while fitting out additional surgeries, and a bridge-to-refi path that secured a property before planning, later simplified through an unsecured refinance. We also discuss evolving bank policies—longer goodwill terms, flexibility around leases, and rising loan-to-values—and why matching products to your practice plan matters more than picking a single “best” lender.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

How you walk doesn't just reflect your mood — it can actually shape it. Research shows that adjusting your stride can boost happiness, and even a short walk outside could be the smartest thing you do today. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/10/141015143259.htm When it comes to spending money, one-size-fits-all advice doesn't work. Should you spend on experiences? Travel? Things? The truth is, the way money makes you happy depends on you. Joining me to explore this is Morgan Housel, partner at The Collaborative Fund, award-winning journalist, and author of The Art of Spending Money: Simple Choices for a Richer Life (https://amzn.to/4gxSGrd). He reveals how your spending choices can bring real joy — or quietly sabotage your happiness. History is full of stories we've all been told — and many of them are flat-out wrong. Did slaves build the pyramids? Was Pong the first video game? Were people in the Middle Ages dirty and unwashed? Not even close. My guest, Jo Hedwig Teeuwisse — better known as The Fake History Hunter — has been debunking false historical “facts” for more than 20 years. She's the author of Fake History: 101 Things that Never Happened (https://amzn.to/46tN7FC), and she's here to set the record straight. And finally, what's the real cost of a little white lie? You might think small lies are harmless, but science shows even tiny untruths can damage your health and relationships. I'll explain why honesty really is the best policy. https://research.nd.edu/news/32485-study-telling-fewer-lies-linked-to-better-health-relationships/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

On this episode of American Potential, host David From welcomes back Jordan Fischetti, Immigration Policy Fellow at Americans for Prosperity, for a deep dive into the border security provisions of the Working Family Tax Cut Act—or what some are calling the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Jordan explains the bill's $46.55 billion investment in border infrastructure, including walls, roads, and cutting-edge technology. But it's not just about building more wall—it's about building smarter. They explore why local knowledge from Border Patrol agents on the ground is key to effective border solutions, how legal immigration pathways can help reduce illegal crossings, and why morale among border agents has been so low—and how to fix it. From drones and AI to the moral crisis of unaccompanied minors, this conversation goes far beyond headlines to tackle both the challenges and solutions in securing America's borders.
