Business Brain Podcast Episode 629 discusses the role of AI in learning, business, and social media strategy. The hosts, Dave Hamilton and Shannon Jean, address an email from a listener who limits their child’s AI use to encourage independent problem-solving. They compare this to past educational resistance to calculators and emphasize the importance of using AI as an assistant rather than a crutch. Dave shares a personal story about how using an early word processor for a school assignment led to a confrontation with a teacher, illustrating how technology adoption meets resistance before becoming standard practice.

Shannon shares a real-world example of using AI for business strategy. A client sought help refining their sales messaging. Shannon used Grok, X’s AI tool, to analyze the company’s social media presence and compare it with the salesperson’s posts. The AI identified a disconnect in messaging and highlighted areas for improvement. This allowed Shannon to provide detailed, data-driven feedback that led to an “aha” moment for the client.

The conversation expands into how AI can analyze successful and unsuccessful social media accounts in the same industry, providing actionable insights on engagement strategies. They discuss Grok’s ability to compare accounts and generate step-by-step plans for growth. Dave acknowledges that AI excels at processing vast amounts of data and summarizing key insights faster than humans.
