We all want a C-3PO—someone (or something) who understands us, speaks our language, and has our back.

In this episode, I explore what it means to train your own protocol droid in real life. From my conversations with AI to the mind-blowing ideas in How to Create a Mind by Ray Kurzweil, we talk about building intelligence—not just using it.

This isn’t science fiction. It’s now.

Whether you’re writing a book, teaching a class, or rebuilding your deck...
You’re already training your C-3PO too.

In this episode, we dive into the rise of AI agents—autonomous tools that can think, plan, and take action on our behalf. From simple task-doers to complex digital collaborators, AI agents are reshaping how we interact with technology. Join us as we break down what they are, how they work, and why they matter more than ever.

AI is evolving fast—too fast for most people to keep up. In this episode, we break it all down, making sense of the rapid advancements in AI and what they mean for you.

We start with the basics: What is a Large Language Model (LLM), and how does it work? From there, we explore the latest AI models—ChatGPT, Grok, Claude, Gemini, and more—highlighting their unique strengths and how they can fit into your everyday life.

But this conversation isn’t just about what AI is—it’s about what AI can do for you. Whether it’s helping you plan your next trip, refine your writing, research investments, or even figure out what that old watch in your drawer is worth, AI is already transforming how we think, learn, and solve problems.

And we’re just getting started. We wrap up with a look at the future of Agentic AI—the next evolution of artificial intelligence that won’t just assist you but will anticipate your needs and take action on its own.

The future isn’t waiting—are you ready?
