  • Where to Start Using AI in Your Business (and Where to Never Use It)

    Where to Start Using AI in Your Business (and Where to Never Use It)
    2026/09/04
    If you found AI for the first time today, where would you start? Mav Founder + CEO Matthew Black and Head of Brand Hillary Black run the thought experiment: deserted island, you reenter civilization, and every tool that exists right now is sitting there waiting. What do you reach for first, and what should you never touch at all?On the table: the two questions that tell you where to start, why the thing everyone reaches for first is the wrong thing, Matthew's AI ick and the one skill he wishes he didn't have, why human outreach is quietly becoming an unfair advantage again, the engineering process Mav rebuilt after choking on its own AI code, an $18,000 Mac you can lease for the price of a Claude subscription, and a poker chip that came out looking like a fish.One of these is where to start. One of them is where to never use it.Hosts- Matthew Black — Founder + CEO, Mav- Hillary Black — Head of Brand and Conversation Design, MavWhere to learn moreRecord your screen, get a skill — the thing Matthew describes at 17:14- Record a Skill, in the Claude desktop app's Cowork "+" menu — you do the task once, narrate it, and Claude writes the skill- Codex Record & Replay — OpenAI's version, shipped a few weeks earlier; this walkthrough shows what the output actually looks likeHow to build skills, the thing Hillary's whole brand system runs on- Equipping agents for the real world with Agent Skills — Anthropic's engineering post, the best single explainer- Agent Skills docs — what a SKILL.md actually is and where to put it- Introduction to Agent Skills — free Anthropic course, start-to-finish- anthropics/skills on GitHub — real working skills to copy from, including brand and document ones- agentskills.io — the open standard, so a skill you write isn't locked to one toolUsing AI for something other than making content- Claude Cowork — the "give it access to your actual files and tools" product- Model Context Protocol — the open standard behind every connector, if you want to understand why access matters- Claude Code — what you'd use to point a local model at your own machineLocal Model TalksLlama — Meta's open-weight models, free to download and run yourself- Apple's new Mac Studio- AppleInsider on the M5 Max and M5 Ultra refreshFollow the showManual Work is a Bug is Mav's podcast, now on video.

  • AI Conspiracy Theories: True or False?

    AI Conspiracy Theories: True or False?
    2026/08/28

    Get hour tinfoil hats out, this week we're talking about 10 AI conspiracy theories. Mav Founder + CEO Matthew Black and Head of Brand Hillary Black go through the internet's darkest, strangest and weirdest AI theories. Real, or fever dream?On the list: Google buying a dead airline's data. Shredding rare books for the sake of AI. The dead internet theory. An agent-only forum where the bots allegedly invented their own language in thirty-six hours. Labs poisoning their own models to keep them to themselves. An AI sentience cover-up. Simulation theory. People marrying their AI. And an ad campaign asking America to cool the data centers with pee.Some of these have press releases. Some of them should have stayed on the internet.

  • Is The Future for Everyone? AI Brand Trips, Local Models and Your Local Library

    Is The Future for Everyone? AI Brand Trips, Local Models and Your Local Library
    2026/08/21

    Is AI actually locked up for the rich? Mav Founder + CEO Matthew Black and Head of Brand Hillary Black open on Mark Zuckerberg's new manifesto, "The Future is for Everyone" — released the day Meta open-sourced Muse Glimmer, a 30B model small enough to run on your own machine. Matthew's read: the scary question was never who controls AI, it's who doesn't have it yet. And the public library is the counterargument nobody makes (but we're in huge support of, seriously, give them your money).Hillary sees it differently. Meta's own problematic algorithms are exactly why nobody takes "this is for everyone" at face value, and today's free tiers are nothing like being mailed a CD of the internet. Plus, a Home Assistant demo that builds its own A/V dashboard on a $500 laptop, and Hillary's tinfoil-hat theory on OpenAI's disastrous influencer brand trip — everyone called it a botched, out of touch product launch, but she thinks the discourse missed the point entirely.If you're trying to figure out whether AI is something you own or something you rent, this one's for you.
