And they're like, I'm gonna use AI to make the sales automated.
It's like, you can't even sell.

And then he came back and he added people so that he could learn.

Number three, let AI handle all customer service to save you money.

You learn what features to build.
You learn what problems to solve.
Cut that off and you're flying blind.
