I encourage you to bring common sense back into the boardroom and stop relying on fake reports that don't measure actualized reach. We also discuss why the "seven or eight" out of ten consistency is more valuable than a viral hit and why AI is the greatest tool for human progress in sectors like healthcare. You’ll learn about: The Power of "Practical Optimism" Why Consistency Beats Virality Every Time How to Build a Brand through Honest Value Exchange How to Protect Your Children from the Internet ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-garyvee-audio-experience-745405/episodes/how-brands-are-using-social-media-ai-in-2026/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-garyvee-audio-experience-745405/how-brands-are-using-social-media-ai-in-2026.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
