The AI fear-mongering is getting out of hand!

And it’s really starting to grind my gears. 😠

People are acting like if you don’t bow at the feet of Claude & Grok then your future of any sort of marketing career is OVER!

In fact, I saw this post in a newsletter the other day and just shoved my face into my palms…

🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♂️

I mean people aren’t this dumb right?

Lo’ and behold, here’s that post (with my entertaining commentary).

Say a prayer for your favorite marketing, coaching, & agency gurus in online business education / services.

90% of them won’t be around in 36 months.

(Is this a tweet from 2022? Cause that’s what they were saying then…)

I’d guess 97-99% won’t be around after 5 years.

The majority of you haven’t experienced mass market change.

(You mean like the Internet Era? The Smartphone Era? The eCom Era? The Subscription Era?)

You’ve been in a happy bubble, money flowing time in internet marketing with many of you mistaking easy money for elite skill and talent.

(Cope. Nobody is making easy money. Hard work has ALWAYS been involved.)

Ai is already better than most of you will ever be.

(Try me dawg)

Most of you will keep doing what you’re doing out of fear you’ll cost yourself short term revenue.

(This sentence makes ZERO sense — WHAT are you SAYING!?)

When Ai mass adoption comes, there will be bots, tools, and services that are 10x better than you for 10x less cost.

(Gallup says 99% of Americans have used AI, sooo mass adoption is here… and uh oh… humans are still doing marketing! 😦)

I have already built Ai bots and softwares that right now could put nearly any one reading this out of business.

(Prove it)

Stay d*cking around in funnels, consulting, copywriting, advertising.

(I’M CONVINCED!! 🤣 I’ll tell my 5-figure monthly retainer clients to “prompt” Claude instead. Good luck.)

Keep claiming “ai sucks at “whatever it is you do “ and isn’t on my level”

(I’ve A/B tested my copy against the best bots. The results are in and… I WIN EVERY TIME. Does that make you mad?)

Keep saying you’ll learn more about ai later.

(Or never)

Most of you aren’t just in AI’s sights. You’re already on life support and don’t even know it.

(YOU’RE NOT MAKING ANY SENSE!!)

This industry will change more in the next 12 months than the previous 5.

(And I will be 10x better in 12 months than I am today — AI isn't the only thing that improves muchacho)

Experts say Ai is still grossly undervalued and underestimated.

(I’m an expert and I say it’s grossly overvalued and overestimated. Valid right!? I mean I said it so it’s gotta be true!)

Despite how much you feel like “Ai is everywhere”, it’s not, YET.

Less than 1% of the internet is utilizing Ai.

(According to Gallup, it’s 99%. Your lie is 98% off)

It’s just our internet marketing echo-chamber makes it feel like it’s everywhere now.

But you’re still early.

(Totally an echo chamber. The world has no idea about AI. Just our small corner of the internet.)

We’re witnessing a simultaneous massacre and gold rush.

I know which side of the mountain I’ll be on.

Do you?

(Bad Wi-Fi on the mountains. Good luck using AI on either side)

If so, you better get your shit together.

Winter is no longer coming. It’s here.

(I thought it was a gold rush, not winter!? Which is it?)

The flurries have started.

If this scared you, good.

Wake the f*ck up.

(And if this didn't scare you? 😏)

​

My prediction?

These guys who think Grok is the second coming of Jesus are in for a rude awakening.

AI is absolutely creating a new segment of internet marketers but it will never wipe skill & humanity.

Just like social media didn’t wipe social gatherings.

Online shopping didn’t wipe out brick & mortar stores.

Spotify didn’t wipe out concerts.

The internet didn’t wipe out direct response mail marketers.

Apple notes didn’t wipe out pen and paper.

​

DO YOU NOT GET IT!?

​

There’s always 2 sides of the coin.

And a huge market shift always creates OPPORTUNITY on the other side.

And I don’t know about you but I’ll be reading my paper books, sharpening my copy skills by hand and shipping original human ideas for my clients.

AI can do my expense reports LOL

Anywho — let’s wrap this up with a simple reminder:

When someone tries to scare you with their fear-mongering AI garbage.

Remember this…

People psychologically ooze the emotions they feel within themselves.

I.e. — they are more scared than you.

Let them be. Cause while they been learning prompts. You’ll be bustin’ your caboose learning timeless skills like persuasion, sales & writing.

(Which has existed since before Jesus)

​

SO BRING IT ON!
