Google is coming with more AI updates. This time adding AI mode to Chrome’s address bar. What does this mean?
Well it’s a sign that AI is just getting more and more adopted and used every single day.
But it also means there are more Chrome features you can begin using and benefiting from today. Find out more about it here:

OpenAI and Harvard just did a study about how people use ChatGPT. And what they found is that nearly 1 in 4 conversations involve someone seeking information.
Even more interesting, this study found that 70% of ChatGPT queries are non-work related. I know this isn’t purely business related but it is interesting. And just shows that people are adopting AI and using it in more and more facets of their life.

On this week’s Aloha Friday Coaching call, we went live for:
The State Of AI: How To Make Money In 2025 And Beyond
Over the past few years we've talked a ton about AI and how to use it to make money.
We've totally overhauled our agency and seen how AI has saved us time and money, removed many headaches for ourselves and our clients, and of course pushed up our profits.
However…
Over the last few years, there's been a ton of changes when it comes to AI.
Which is why on this week's Aloha Friday Live Coaching Call, I went live to share with you where we are currently at with AI.
Including, which tools we recommend, how to quickly start using AI to make money, and more!
This is perfect if you've been following along and want some updates and nuance into how we're running our 7-figure agency. And it's also perfect if you're newer and want to wrap your head around this whole AI thing in the first place.
This also happens to be our 300th episode! Which is HUGE.
The replay is up now and you can tune in here:
