Using AI to work faster feat. Derek Coburn

08 Dec 2025

Description

Hey! This is Ep151 of Amplify Ai - Integrating Intelligence, Preserving Identity presented by Ronsley Vaz.Ever spent weeks trying to cross-reference your own work? Or felt completely stumped when someone asks "How can I help you?" — and you've got nothing useful to say?That was me. Until this conversation with Derek Coburn changed how I think about both.Derek just released his book "Let's Talk About Retiring Retirement" and shared this brilliant "Two Tonys" story that I've now turned into a framework for how we explain AI value. Plus, I'm showing you exactly how I used Gemini's massive context window to scan my entire book manuscript and 25+ podcast transcripts to find connections I never could have done manually.What you'll pick up from this episode:🔹 The Two Tonys retirement story that shifts everything about how you present value🔹 How to answer "How can I help you?" without sounding like a deer in headlights🔹 Using long-context AI (Gemini) to scan entire books and find relationships🔹 My Ship 15 system: ideate, record, edit and publish a video in 15 minutes🔹 Why AI won't write your book — but will make you a better author🔹 Derek's take on working longer, living better, and spending less time stressedHere's the thing — AI didn't write my book. But it helped me find every podcast episode I referenced, where they appeared, and how to link them together. That's the kind of AI use that actually matters in business.Timestamps:0:00 - The retirement quote that started it all0:25 - Introducing Derek Coburn and why this conversation matters1:05 - The Two Tonys: A retirement story that changes everything4:45 - Why picking 65 as your retirement age might be the worst decision6:30 - How I used ChatGPT to analyse our pre-call conversation8:15 - Creating your own "Two Tonys" demo for your business9:40 - Derek's 7-year book writing process (and what he learned)12:50 - Using Gemini to scan my entire book manuscript14:30 - How I linked 25+ podcast transcripts to my book using AI16:45 - Derek's story about working out with his son19:20 - Ship 15: System for creating videos in 15 minutes21:00 - Repeatable reps in business (and why they matter)22:30 - Education, AI, and what this means for our kids25:00 - Final thoughts and where to find Derek's book#AmplifyAI #AIforBusiness #RetireRetirement #DerekCoburn #AIBookWriting #FounderTools #BusinessAutomationFind out more at:- https://amplifyais.com/academy- https://wearepodcast.com/- https://amplifyais.com/podcastMuch love,Ronsley
