MB545: Why Your Brain Is Killing Your Capital Raises (And How to Fix It) - With Dr. Noah St. John

So we got to talk about AI a little bit here, because I'll say, what did Dr. Noah say about AI? One thing that stuck out is that you said AI amplifies whatever thinking is already there.

Yes.

Right? And I think you said something like, so now we have more tools at our fingertips, more data.

But why does all that information make us, like many of us, kind of freeze instead of act? Like, why is that maybe a counterproductive thing?

Well, there's several reasons.

I mean, one of them is paralysis by analysis, right? So because of the total overwhelm of information, I mean, I've been teaching this for over 25 years now, which is that we don't live in the information age.

We live in the information overload age.

Right.

We passed the information age 30 miles back.

Right.

So now that's why most people are on overload.

And now with AI, the advent of AI, which has only been the last two years now, you know, you can I don't even know what the word what's beyond overload is.

Most people are just like, forget the whole thing.

And you know what? I'm just going to crawl back into bed mode.

But anyway, so yeah, I mean, AI is really like a magnifying glass.

It magnifies whatever's there in the first place.

So, you know, the old saying about computers is, is still true, but only more so, which is garbage in, garbage out, right? If you put lousy stuff in to AI or wherever, you're going to get lousy stuff out, you know, garbage in, garbage out.

I like to actually, I prefer to say Tito because it's shorter.

Trash in, trash out.

I don't know why they didn't do that, but I say Tito.

Anyway, so, but that's the problem.

So the point is, you know, and I tell this to all my clients now, because this comes up literally, you know, every day when I talk to my one-on-one clients or group coaching is with AI, you are in charge.

You are the human being.

So the point is, and this is something I'm very passionate about.

So I get on my soapbox here.
