AI vs. Actual Work

AI vs. Actual Work

An agent told me he'd worked so hard for two weeks. He hadn't closed a single conversation.

He said it like it was a badge of honor. I asked him to show me what he'd actually been doing.

He pulled up Claude. Then ChatGPT. Then a system he'd been building for two weeks straight — formatting templates, testing prompts, tuning workflows.

I asked him a simple question: have you talked to a buyer or a seller in the last two weeks?

He said no. Not one.

Everybody looks for the laziest way out of the work they don't want to do. AI is a really good way to do that, because it feels productive. It isn't, if the actual job — talking to people — never happens.

AI should free you up to prospect and manage clients. It's not supposed to replace either one.

Has AI ever made you feel busy without actually moving your business forward? What did you change?

    I agree with you. AI should be used in a way where it should bring lots of leads to you and they should be talking to more people. And now a days, you don't actually need to build stuff, personal agents like Grok bot or Instinct or Muse can do stuff for you without building. I start in the opposite direction - What do I want to accomplish? And then decide how to use AI for it. And usually my task is not a big project. Those are much smaller tasks and that makes to do 100s of them pretty quickly. Ultimately with AI, you need to be the the person breaking down the tasks.
