I am a serious guy: I have read hundreds of pages of peer-reviewed articles on AI, watched hundreds of hours of YouTube videos on AI and tried out dozens of AI apps. I have an armada of about 15 AI tools that work for me automatically every single day and support me in my business development efforts and in my day-to-day work as a lawyer. In this course, I will be sharing my knowledge with you.
