💌 Quick note:
What’s good curious people,
I hope all is prosperous. It has been awhile since you’ve heard from me, I’ve been well — still learning, playing, and creating. Speaking of creating, those close to me know I’ve been talking about starting a podcast for “A Space To Think” so you all can enjoy the insights on the go.
I finally got around to it, and created AI agents to assist me with my research, script writing, and audio production. I increasingly believe we’ll all have our own AI agents working for us one day. You should too.
Moving forward each segment of “A Space To Think” will be podcast first and be complimented with a deck of takeaways. I’ll still reference the sources so you can dig deeper yourself.
I hope you enjoy. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe if you haven’t.
With gratitude,
Brylan
