Turning AI into Daily Practice for Growth


Listen Later

Artificial intelligence is no longer optional, it is essential. In this episode, Shawn Walchef and mentor David Meltzer break down how AI connects with the Stage Theory and why building a “social silo” is more valuable than a website. Meltzer explains how he incorporates AI into his values, daily practices, and execution model, sharing examples from client coaching to personal decision-making. The discussion highlights how AI speeds up content creation, personalizes storytelling, and amplifies distribution across platforms. For business leaders and creators, this conversation is a roadmap to making AI a daily habit that fuels exponential growth.

Interview Takeaways:
  • AI as Daily Practice – David Meltzer emphasizes that artificial intelligence isn’t something to experiment with once in a while; it’s a tool to practice daily. By aligning values, daily activities, execution models, and incentives with AI, he treats it as a skill that compounds over time.
  • Beyond ChatGPT – While most people stop at ChatGPT, Meltzer highlights the growing ecosystem of specialized AI tools built for industries like restaurants, book writing, and legal research. He stresses that exploring multiple platforms can unlock unique advantages.
  • Social Silos Over Websites – Meltzer’s Stage Theory has evolved into the concept of a “social silo,” where your presence across platforms creates a rabbit hole for audiences. Instead of relying solely on SEO and websites, AI-powered content capture and distribution feed the algorithms so that audiences inevitably discover and re-discover you.
