Most leaders are using AI completely wrong — and it’s costing them opportunities, clarity, and strategic advantage. This episode reframes AI not as a prediction machine, but as the most powerful blindspot-detection tool leaders have ever had access to.

Ernest breaks down why the biggest mistake executives make is asking AI for “the best answer,” when the real value is in uncovering the risks, assumptions, and alternative paths you haven’t considered. This is how elite decision-makers pressure-test their thinking and avoid the traps everyone else walks straight into.

If you want to make smarter decisions with less guesswork and more confidence, this episode is the playbook.

What You'll Learn:

• Why relying on AI for prediction is a strategic trap
• How AI actually expands your awareness and exposes hidden risks
• The difference between certainty and clarity (leaders must know this)
• How to use AI to pressure-test decisions in business and life
• The exact prompts to uncover blindspots instantly
• Why the most successful leaders in 2025+ aren’t the ones who know the most — but the ones who see the most
