🎙 I like listening to business books while running or painting the fence, but I forget 90% of it, so can´t use it when I actually need it. But I’ve solved that problem. Today, I walk you through the simple, non‑technical AI framework I’ve built to turn years of audiobooks and other recordings into a structured, searchable learning library of summaries, frameworks, and quotes that I can access any time and plug straight into my business.
You’ll hear how I’m using tools like Whisper, Libation, Claude Agent Skills, and slash commands, plus an AI business brain, to not only remember what I’ve learned but have AI actively apply those ideas to my business. Including podcast outlines, content creation, and future decision‑making. If you’ve ever thought, I know I’ve read or heard the solution to this somewhere, but I can’t remember where to find it so I can refresh my knowledge, this episode is for you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
💡 The Problem With Audiobook Learning: Audiobooks and courses only pay off when you can find and apply what you heard to review it months or years down the line.
💡 Turning Audiobooks Into a Searchable Learning Library: Use tools like Libation and Whisper to transcribe, file and organise your audiobooks into a structured learning library. One that any AI tool can interrogate and pull knowledge from in a way that does not break copyright.
💡 Bake in Quality Control: Not everything you have read is accurate. Use AI to identify and flag weak evidence, missing references, and spot possible transcription errors. It won’t spot everything, but it will improve the quality of the information.
💡 Borrow the Format of the Best Content You Have Read: Use AI tools to automatically structure podcasts, content and projects using the best frameworks you’ve ever consumed. You will work more efficiently, attract more customers, and have better relationships with them and your team.
BEST MOMENTS
02:15 - 💬 “Audiobooks are amazing at getting knowledge into your head… However, I only retain a fraction of it.”
04:56 - 💬 “AI can read text really quickly. It has to turn audio into text before it can use it. So we want to do that stage first before we apply it to any other AI tools that we're going to use.”
11:46 - 💬 “I'm terrible at remembering details like that. So, this is for me heaven.”
21:02 - 💬 “AI can iterate instantly; you can ask for it to improve, it will make that improvement on the spot, and you get to use it there, and then no time lost.”
