AI Is Not Your Shortcut. If Your Systems Are Broken, It Won’t Fix Them! | Jon Wellman | Ep 53
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Everyone’s talking about AI right now. Few people are actually telling the truth about it.
This episode cuts through the noise.
I sat down with Jon Wellman, CEO of Vokke, and we got straight into it. No hype. No buzzwords. Just what actually works when you’re building real businesses with real stakes.
We unpack what most founders get wrong about AI, why more tools don’t fix broken systems, and how clarity beats speed every time. Jon shares the lessons that only come from building, breaking things, and having to rebuild them again properly.
We also get into risk and we dive deeper into being a dad + entrepreneur. The decisions that look small but shape everything long term.
If you’ve been feeling behind, overwhelmed, or unsure where AI fits into your business, this will reset how you think about it!
