Summary In today's episode, I explain how to run multi-agent AI loops without incurring massive API costs. Here's what this means for you. You can scale agentic workflows while keeping your technology expenditures predictable and low. You'll also learn these concepts: how local hosting offers a cost-free alternative for specific tasks, why token-based subscription plans…
AI tools are lazy. This should not be a surprise to anyone. After all, they’re trained on our work histories, our discussions, and our examples. They take the same shortcuts we do. They say something is done when it isn’t. They cut corners. Here’s a simple example: test coverage in coding. When you’re using an…
Summary In today's episode, I explain how to leverage AI and agentic frameworks to conduct thorough B2B vendor evaluations. Here's what this means for you. You can transform vendor due diligence from a manual headache into an automated, high-accuracy process. You'll also learn these concepts: how scoring rubrics guide AI success, why agentic frameworks outperform…
Holophrasis, lexical density, lexical compression, nominalization, surprisal. These 5 words do some surprising things when you add them to prompting for AI. One of the things that AI does best is jargon. The nature of the underlying models means that high probability phrases lead to high probability results – and that’s often boring, unfocused, and…
Summary In today's episode, I explore the differences between self-hosting LLMs and using cloud providers to manage token costs for high-volume marketing. Here's what this means for you. You can maximize your ROI by matching your hardware or subscription choice to your specific AI workloads. You'll also learn these concepts: how to repurpose older GPUs…
Summary In today's episode, I walk through how to set up Claude Code for success, including why you'd choose it over Claude Co-work, the prep work required, and the documentation structures that drive consistent quality output. Here's what this means for you. You gain a repeatable framework that slashes token usage, cuts rework, and forces…
“You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” This management trope, widely derided (sometimes correctly), is a cornerstone of effective AI management. Here’s what I mean. Suppose you were working on a piece of writing, a piece of content, and you wanted to tell AI to aim for better readability. Maybe you wanted it to be…
