AI-Fueled Profits LIVE is a two-day, hands-on conference designed to teach the masses how to overcome their fear of AI and create a clear, profitable AI-powered business model. Held on Saturday, February 21st, the packed event was hosted by Alicia Lyttle (The Queen of AI), who is a world-renowned AI strategist, CEO of AI InnoVision, and one of the most sought-after voices helping companies, educators, and entrepreneurs to thrive in the AI age. The following is an excerpt of our interview with her where she discusses how she got her start in artificial intelligence, the ins and outs of it, and the purpose of her event.
HOW SHE GOT HER PROFESSIONAL START AND HOW SHE ENDED UP WORKING WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
26 years ago when I started entrepreneurship, I got my start by working with my then ex-husband and trying to see how I could take his knowledge and turn it into an online course. The year 2000 was a really exciting time and the internet was just really getting started and I loved learning about it back then.
As far as AI is concerned, in 2017, I spoke at an event for Walmart. It was an internal event called Walmart Tech Live and the speaker in front of me (he was 15 years old at the time) was talking about IBM Watson, an AI tool. That was the first time that I ever heard of AI, by a 15 year old! So, I then learned about how this AI tool beat the nation’s best Jeopardy champions at a game of Jeopardy. My mind was blown. I didn’t even know about it, but this happened in 2011. So, I started to use tools that had AI in them and then when ChatGPT came around, I was hooked, all in on AI, and pivoted from having a digital marketing business and agency, to being all in on AI training and certification. That’s where the shift happened.
AI-FUELED PROFITS LIVE
So, today is my event! It’s called AI-Fueled Profits Live. I have my Power Circle mastermind here, my AI certified consultants, and a lot of people that are in one of my programs called AI Fueled Profits, where we teach them how to start AI backed businesses, as well as their friends and people from the Atlanta community and others that have come around. What we are doing here is teaching them how they can leverage AI. So, through demonstrations on stage, I’ll be showing them how they can win with artificial intelligence. They’ll have their laptops open. I’ll say, “Here is a prompt. Put it in your ChatGPT, your Gemini, or whatever tool you’re using”, and we’ll get the result. It is a hands-on workshop.
I also have other guests coming to speak as well. We have the amazing Les Brown who will be speaking about mindset. How do you really set yourself up to win in the AI revolution? Nehemiah Davis is going to talk about going all in and what it means to go all in on something. We have Coach K. who is going to come and talk about how you can win grants with artificial intelligence. So, we have a lot of different speakers that are coming to really pour into this audience and by the time they leave, they will say that they have strategies, prompts, techniques, and new knowledge that will take them to the next level.
