Ep 13 - Set the Mood

Are you selling AI solutions or business outcomes? (One makes money, one doesn't.) 
 
Jordan Gal hosts Craig Hewitt, founder of Castos and an AI content creator deep into his "100 Days of AI" project, alongside Chris Gimmer, co-founder of Fathom Analytics who just launched Good Metrics, a privacy-first analytics platform. Should OpenAI go public at a trillion dollars? The trio debates whether we're witnessing a bubble or the beginning of something bigger. Craig reveals why ChatGPT is "the worst AI tool" for his work—blasphemy or insight? Chris shares the painful decision to delay his launch for months after infrastructure issues. They tackle working from home versus office space, the coming wave of household robots, and why selling AI solutions directly might be the wrong approach. When will you have a robot in your house?
