Can you talk about kind of your experience in the NFL, like some things that you learned and like how that translates into life? Your business now and where you're at in

life.

Yeah, so I um, my wife doesn't want my son to play just cuz she thinks like I am You have just had issues I think that's with any other like contact sport.

We're gonna hit like that But I think football brings a lot of value when it comes to kids just discipline respect, you know, I have an accountability and just being able to you know, work in them failure moments because it's going to happen.

And I think that just transitions and gets you ready for the real world because you're going to have a lot of failures.

You know, there's going to be a lot of people that you can't, that tell you that you can't do it.

You're not good enough.

mm-hmm that's so true well they always say to playing sports in general having been part of a team and working together is such great lessons but then when you bring the NFL NFL into it which is a whole nother level tell us about some people that were really good positive influences for you during that time in your football career I

Like, how did you, one, know that it was going to be kind of like a category defining step change in technology and to bet your career on it? And two, I guess just provide some color on like, ai for people that are ignorant or maybe don't have as much context uh that we do in our company

yeah so you know pre-generative ai you really had to have so much money to build these models and then you would build the model once and you know pray that it was good at predicting something or sending you an ad on facebook or something like that and then when chat gbt came out you know you just get to use the best model in the world for free or for 20 a month uh... and then what i realize every three months it just gets better you know they just released the next version of it and it's a little bit smarter and it's a little bit smarter and that's when after i think two releases i was like okay i think you know this seems like it's not going to slow down and eventually right now it's fun to use to plan a super bowl party or something but eventually this is going to be you know the most important thing for a business to to use to make their business better um and so generative ai you know i can kind of give my two minute spiel on it we do a whole training day on this and i've done this for tons of different auto repair shops um as well as other you know companies but um my two kind of two-minute slimmed-down version is essentially...

I like to think of a generative AI model.

If you've seen ChatGPT by now, you type in a question, it sends out an answer.

So it's generating text.

That's all that it means.

That's all generative AI.

But do you want to talk about like... how fast it's moved in just three years and then dovetail that into like where you think one, two, five years from now is both in the world and in our company?
