AI is everywhere these days, and while it can be an amazing tool, it's also becoming a minefield of costly AI mistakes for business owners. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on some of the most common missteps I’m seeing digital product sellers make when using AI. From letting AI tools write your legal policies (please don’t!) to blindly trusting AI-generated website code, these mistakes might seem small but can lead to big problems with your credibility, performance, or even legal compliance.

I walk you through why you should never use AI for things like privacy policies or contracts, and why AI code (though convenient) can easily break your site if you don’t fully understand what it’s doing. I even share a behind-the-scenes example of how my own excitement about an AI-built automation backfired. The bottom line? If you’re not double-checking AI’s output or editing it to reflect your actual brand voice, you could be hurting your business more than helping it.

This episode isn’t anti-AI - far from it! I use it all the time. But we need to be savvy about how we’re using it. So if you’ve been tempted to copy-paste AI copy, take its “facts” at face value, or let it take the reins on your tech without oversight, this is your nudge to pause and rethink your approach. Tune in to hear what to avoid today, and come back next week for the creative, strategic ways I do recommend using AI in your business.
