AI Is a Thought Partner, Not a Thought Leader with James Lang
About this episode
Most people using AI have no idea what's happening under the hood, and that blind spot could cost them everything. James Lang does know. He's been building AI and big data infrastructure since 2014, long before it was cool, and he's here to tell it straight.
In this episode, James and Jackson unpack the hidden costs of AI that nobody talks about, why most AI startups are one missed AWS bill away from disappearing, and the three part prompting formula that gets you dramatically better results, every time.
