Shownotes

Today I tumbled into the world of agentic AI, autonomous workflows and tools I hadn’t even heard of last month. It’s a lot. Here’s how I’m handling the vertical learning cliff without quitting—and why practitioners (NLP, coaching, training) should be at the table guiding this.

You’ll hear:

  • What “agentic AI” really means in human language
  • The tea‑and‑breathe method for information overload
  • Why your psychology skills are your edge

Chapters:

  • 00:03 - Starting the AI Journey
  • 00:25 - Understanding Agentic AI
  • 01:34 - The Impact of Comet on Business and Culture
  • 02:16 - The Challenge of Learning in a Transformative Era
  • 02:59 - Navigating Change and Transformation

Comment “prompts” on my latest post and I’ll DM the Power Prompt pack

Transcripts

Speaker A:

Hello and welcome to day two.

Speaker A:

The can of worms is officially open.

Speaker A:

And by can of worms, I mean the entire A I ocean.

Speaker A:

Help.

Speaker A:

Okay, so yesterday I was all confident about starting this AI journey, but plainly confident emotional as well.

Speaker A:

But today I made the mistake of trying to understand what agentic AI actually means.

Speaker A:

I've got a free trial to Comet, so I thought, that's agentic AI.

Speaker A:

Let's have a look.

Speaker A:

Two hours later, I'm down a rabbit hole involving autonomous agents, workflow, automation, and something called Go high level, which I've looked at and apparently everybody else uses and knows, but even me, with quite a high tech background, doesn't really know about.

Speaker A:

I keep seeing people mention agents, and to begin with, a couple of weeks ago, I actually thought they meant like Secret Service bots or something.

Speaker A:

Then I discovered agentic browsers.

Speaker A:

AI that can literally browse the Internet and take actions for you.

Speaker A:

And my brain just went really?

Speaker A:

Especially Comet.

Speaker A:

As I say, I've got the beta of Comet.

Speaker A:

Just when I thought it couldn't get any wilder, I.

Speaker A:

When I first found out about Comet and agentic agents, I had to stop, go make a cuppa and calm down because my head was spinning.

Speaker A:

This is mega changing everything.

Speaker A:

Business culture, how we connect with people, how we use the Internet, how we will operate going forward in work.

Speaker A:

Everything will change because of agentic browsers.

Speaker A:

And here's me thinking I could casually learn this stuff on my weekends off.

Speaker A:

So my lesson for day two, the learning curve isn't a curve.

Speaker A:

It's more like a vertical cliff face.

Speaker A:

But you know what?

Speaker A:

That's exactly why transformational practitioners, trainers, coaches, nlpers need to be part of this conversation.

Speaker A:

Because we understand human psychology.

Speaker A:

We know how to hold a space for overwhelm, to eat the elephant one bite at a time.

Speaker A:

And we speak that language of transformation.

Speaker A:

So when there's massive change, chaotic change, we know how to cope and how to help others move forward.

Speaker A:

So AI needs our wisdom about what actually helps people in this age of really evolutionary change.

Speaker A:

I will see you again tomorrow when I'm stepping back from the overwhelm and trying to breathe.

Speaker A:

And I'll see you then.

Speaker A:

Thanks for watching.
