This week, I’m joined by Shane McCarthy, an AI aficionado and entrepreneur, back for another chat after his first appearance on Episode #107 . 
Following on from last week’s AI episode, we dive deeper into what AI can really do, the opportunities it presents, and the challenges it brings.
💡 What We Chat About:
 - A quick reintroduction to Shane and the many things he’s working on (plus an exclusive announcement 👀).
 
 - What first drew him to AI and why he believes we’re on the brink of a seismic shift in how the world operates.
 
  - How he’s been testing AI’s capabilities from day one and why most people are only scratching the surface of what it can do.
 
  - The fact that AI goes beyond ChatGPT – from video editing to building websites – and you don’t need to be a techie to make the most of it.
 
  - How he built a brand in just 50 minutes using a few AI tools, saving weeks of work, time, and money.The conversation around job losses and why humans are still needed to drive AI – but upskilling is key.
 
  - AI and the loneliness epidemic – how technology connects us more than ever but also leaves people feeling isolated.
 
  - The global mental health crisis and how governments aren’t taking it seriously, leaving individuals and initiatives to step in without proper support.
 
  - Logic vs Emotion – how taking a step back and thinking logically can change how we react to situations.
 
  - Using AI’s speaking feature tTo ask deep questions and how curiosity can lead to a better understanding of yourself.
 
  - Whether it’s too late to start learning AI (spoiler: it’s not) and where we are now on the innovation adoption curve.
 
  - Shane’s top advice for anyone wanting to dive into AI and start learning today.
 
 Plus, Shane has a new podcast launching this Thursday with Katie Sheehan – The Ripple Effect. Keep an eye out for that one!
