Hey AI community 👋 I’m Grace from Portland, and I’m building my real estate business while leveraging my clone to save serious time. I’m still working my way through all of the assignments and homework, but I’m staying committed by rewatching the videos and continuing to press in so I don’t miss anything. My clone has already been a huge support with business planning, reviewing and analyzing real estate data, and helping me plan and execute social media. I know there is even more value waiting, so I’m heading back to the site to watch another video and keep building. Thank you so much for setting this up so thoughtfully for all of us. It has been incredibly empowering. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday filled with peace, love, and rest. 🤍✨

A Thought After Seeing an Ad Today… I saw an ad that said something like: “Stop using ChatGPT. Only people 40+ use it. Trust us for 28 days and your life will change forever.” It made me pause — not because I believed it, but because of what it revealed. Tools aren’t the problem. Avoidance is. Over the past few months, I’ve used AI as a thinking partner, not a shortcut. I still do the work. I still wrestle with clarity. I still have to finish what I start. What has changed is momentum. I’ve published books. Built simple systems. Tested ideas instead of overthinking them. And proved to myself that I can create income online without hype, debt, or gurus. Age has nothing to do with it. Discipline does. Consistency does. Clarity does. No 28-day promise replaces showing up and building something real. For me, AI didn’t replace thinking — it amplified it. Curious how others here are using tools (AI or otherwise) to build real assets instead of chasing shortcuts. Grateful to be in a room that values execution over shame-based marketing.

📝 TL;DR AI is not just a work assistant anymore, it is becoming an emotional companion for millions of people. A new UK government report says one in three adults use AI for emotional support or social interaction, and some experience withdrawal when it goes offline. 🧠 Overview The UK’s Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute has released its first major report on advanced AI systems. One of the standout findings, a third of UK adults are already using tools like chatbots for emotional support or conversation, with one in 25 doing this every day. The same report also warns that AI systems are rapidly gaining expert level capabilities in areas like cyber security and biology, so governments are treating this as both a social and safety issue. 📜 The Announcement The findings come from a UK government body that tests advanced AI models for safety and real world impact. Over about two years, they evaluated more than 30 leading AI models and surveyed over 2,000 UK adults about how they actually use AI day to day. The government says it will use this work to shape future AI policy and expects companies to fix risks before these systems are deployed widely. ⚙️ How It Works • A government run survey - Researchers asked over 2,000 UK adults how they were using AI and found one in three had used it for emotional support or social interaction. • Daily reliance - About one in 25 people reported turning to AI for conversation or support every single day, which suggests a real emotional habit is forming. • Main tools people use - Most emotional support use is happening through chatbots and virtual assistants, not futuristic robot friends. • Studying an AI friends community - Researchers looked at an online community of around two million people who use AI companions and watched what happened when those tools went offline. • Withdrawal symptoms - When chatbots were unavailable, users reported feeling anxious, low, sleeping badly, or neglecting responsibilities, similar to withdrawal from a digital habit.
