✍️ Biden’s AI Order

Last week, just prior to his departure, former President Joe Biden signed an executive order designed to speed up the building of data centers and clean energy facilities to help the U.S. grow its AI capabilities quickly and at scale.

The plan? Fast-track the construction of AI data centers on federal land, power them with clean energy, and keep critical tech firmly on American soil.

Keep reading here for a closer look at what the order entails—and why it matters.

🎨 Wait, ChatGPT Isn't the Only AI That Will Write Stuff for Me?

There’s a new-er AI in town, and it’s here to make your life easier (and maybe even cooler).

While ChatGPT has been stealing the spotlight, Claude by Anthropic has been quietly flexing its AI muscles. Named after Claude Shannon (the father of information theory, in case you needed a conversation starter for your next trivia night), this AI is all about safety, alignment, and seriously solid performance.

So, what’s the deal with Claude? Keep reading here to find out.

We all know that selling cars isn’t one-size-fits-all. Whether someone’s shopping for their first car, upgrading to something family-friendly, or eyeing that top-of-the-line luxury ride, every customer has different needs and preferences. That’s why building a detailed profile of your ideal customer is so useful—it helps you figure out who you’re trying to reach and what’s going to resonate with them.

This prompt is a great way to get started. It can help you break down key traits like who your best customers are demographically, what motivates them to buy, and how they typically approach a purchase. That way, instead of casting a wide net and hoping for the best, you can focus on the people most likely to walk through your doors (or hit your website) and drive away happy.

A more efficient process that doesn’t sacrifice the premium experience that customers expect.
