Hey guys, JC here Back in January, I left my corporate job with a simple plan: Take a break. Breathe. Reset. After years in the noise, I thought I’d slow things down. Spend more time with family. Clear my head. But life had other plans. I fell into the AI space... fast. Started building. Started sharing. Started working with businesses that were genuinely excited about what’s possible. And before I knew it, I was in it. All in. Meetings. Building, Educating, Late nights. Wins stacking up. Mom...

Hey Guys, JC Here. About a week ago, I had one of the biggest meetings of my career. A face-to-face with someone on the Australian Rich 200 list, a seasoned operator and someone with quite the resume. We sat down in Adelaide to walk through what we’re building at Designless.ai: Real AI agents. Built with intention. Designed to solve real business problems. It wasn’t just a pitch. It was a conversation. Fast forward to now and I just received an email from him. Not just saying “nice to meet yo...

Today, I had two very different conversations about AI. Both were with brilliant teams. Both were energising in their own way. But the contrast between the two really stuck with me because it says so much about how companies are approaching AI right now. The first was with an international team who came prepared. They’d done the homework. They’d mapped their internal systems. And they knew exactly what they wanted AI to do, not just today, but over time. Their roadmap was clear: → Phase 1: Le...

Hey guys, JC hereIf you told me 6 months ago that I’d be building an AI development firm, working with clients, leading a team, and gearing up for major meetings across the country… I would’ve laughed. Not because I didn’t think it was possible but because back then, I was just posting daily. Learning in public. Tinkering with agents. Writing about what I found interesting. I was just curious. That’s all it was. No grand business plan. No secret growth hack. Just showing up. Every day, I shar...

Hey Guys, JC Here Let’s talk about where we actually are with AI. If you’re a business owner still thinking “AI is just ChatGPT” you’re already behind. But it’s not your fault, the landscape shifts fast. Here’s a quick breakdown of the 3 big phases we’ve moved through: Phase 1: Ask a question, get an answer. The LLM boom. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. We all jumped in, asking questions, getting summaries, writing drafts. A huge unlock… but still manual. You had to copy/paste. You had to do somethi...

Hey y’all — JC here.This one’s for the lurkers. You know who you are scrolling through threads, saving workflows, bookmarking posts with every intention to start… someday. But let me tell you what changed the game for me: Showing. Not telling. I didn’t come into AI with a fancy PhD or a playbook. I just started building. → Built a one-line journal app in 3 hours → Created agents that now handle real client work → Wrote daily blogs, dropped tools, shared screenshots, posted on socials And you ...

Morning guys, JC here 6 months ago, I wouldn’t have believed you if you told me this. Next week, I’ll be sitting down with someone on the Top 200 Rich List of Australia. Talking all things AI, business, and how we might work together. Not because I chased some VC. Not because I posted some viral thread. But because I’ve been building day by day and backing myself. And more importantly because someone in my network opened the door. That’s the part people forget. Sometimes, the biggest opp...

Hey y’all — it’s JC. 18 months ago, I was like a lot of people: Drowning in AI tool launches. Trying to test everything. Not really sure where to start or where it was going. ChatGPT this. ChatGPT that. Daily launches. Shiny objects. More noise than direction. But somewhere in that mess… I got curious. Started tinkering. And then — I started building. What started as a few personal projects turned into helping friends, family then businesses. I realised the biggest skill wasn’t learning every...

Hey y’all, JC here.Let’s talk real for a second. Everyone’s obsessed with tools right now. “What’s the best AI writer?” “What agent builder should I use?” “Is this better than that?” But here’s the truth: You don’t need more tools. You need a system.Tools come and go. Systems compound.I’ve seen it over and over, Founders stacking half a dozen shiny AI tools into their stack… …and still manually exporting CSVs every Friday. It’s not about what tools you have. It’s about how they talk to each o...

Hey y’all — JC here.Anthropic just dropped something big: Claude Code. And if you’re building with AI or thinking about it this update’s worth a look. In short: Claude just got a serious coding boost. It’s now way more capable at reading, writing, and reasoning through code, especially in large files and multi-step dev flows. Let’s unpack what it is, why it matters, and how you can try it today.So… what is Claude Code?Claude’s always been solid at general reasoning, summarising, writing, answ...
