I had nowhere to showcase them. I had no network... It was a case of working it out for yourself. And that is literally what I did." "I could literally emulate your voice that even your friends and family wouldn't know who, that it's not you posting." "It just shows really anybody listening out there that feels that they can't do it... you can still progress and do what you need to do quite efficiently." "I am a massive advocate for AI, but use it as a framework... The algorithm knows when it is AI and they know that we play around with them." "You need to take time out of your business to spend on your business... but when it is always Monday to Fridays... people struggle."
