The Daily Dose #274 | AI On Your Website Is Working. That's The Problem.


Listen Later

Az is back from Melbourne with something every builder using AI on their website needs to hear.

The AI isn't broken. That's actually what makes it dangerous.

In conversations with Gavin Sloan from Live Chat Monitoring, one of the world's largest live chat and AI agent providers with over 4,500 clients, a clear pattern emerged. Builders who deployed AI agents on their websites found those agents happily recommending competitors, quoting prices, outlining timelines, and answering every question so thoroughly that prospects never felt the need to book.

The fix isn't expensive. It's not technical. It's guardrails, a few clear sentences that tell your AI what it can and can't say, who it works for, and when to hand the conversation to a real person.

In this episode, Az breaks down what guardrails are, why they matter, the five things your AI should never do, and the moment a conversation stops being an AI job and becomes a sales conversation.

Three practical actions you can take this week, starting with a test you can run in the next five minutes.
