In this episode, my friend Jaryn Dominique joins me to cut through the rage and fear dominating so much of the AI conversation, and to talk honestly about what it actually means to run an ethical business in the AI age. We get into why AI is a tool rather than a job-killer, why the human element still matters more than ever, and how the environmental conversation around data centers is more nuanced than the headlines suggest. We close with practical encouragement to fact-check before you share, look for the use cases nobody's marketing, and stay brave enough to adapt rather than letting the fear paralyze you.
