About this episode

This episode provides a sneak peek into the Chief AI Academy's curriculum, discussing software industry challenges and innovative AI techniques.

People kept asking what we teach at the werchota Chief AI Academy. Here's the Quickbite: Software Armageddon (HubSpot, Gartner, Adobe, Salesforce in free fall) + the IronCloud €40k vs Claude $50 demo. Reverse Prompting — the dating-your-psychologist technique that pulls 10× quality out of any AI. The Second Brain that called Malcolm the worst salesperson on his own team. And the uncomfortable truth: your last 10 hires were AI Neanderthals.
