Pete Pachal is committed to empowering professionals and organizations of all sizes to harness the transformative power of AI in media. He believes that the democratization of AI tools in journalism and communications allows small and mid-sized businesses to compete with larger players by enabling affordable and strategic content creation that was once the domain of expensive agencies. Through direct training, tailored resources, and actionable strategies, Pete ensures that his audience is equipped to adapt quickly, maintain quality, and embrace innovation in a rapidly shifting landscape.

Central to Pete’s work is his emphasis on maintaining editorial integrity and transparency as AI becomes increasingly integrated into content workflows. He warns against the mass production of low-quality, clickbait material and instead advocates for meaningful human involvement at key stages of content creation and review. By teaching professionals how to use AI as an active thought partner, he enables them to leverage technology to elevate their work, drive engagement, and uphold ethical standards.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
