We’re talking with Jerry Potter, YouTube expert, multi-channel builder, and coach to entrepreneurs who want results in half the time. He’s helped creators get recommended, break plateaus, and finally reach the people they’re trying to serve.

Howdy Reader! First, a quick story. I don’t know about you, but our family has a habit of sending funny videos to each other, especially from Instagram. I shared a funny clip to my daughter Abby, and she responded to me, “Dad, that’s AI!” So two things… First, I was a little embarrassed. I’m the guy who talks and trains people on AI, and I let this slip past me. Second, based on her reaction, does humor hit differently when you know it’s AI?
