Then AI showed up, and instead of feeling threatened, he went deep. He taught himself to install and run open-source AI locally on his own machine, built custom setups for paying clients, and turned that knowledge into a course business called Pixel Pandorium Academy.John sat down with Nick to dig into how he's building this from scratch, without a social following, using Meta ads as his primary traffic source. Nick's running one ad, spending around $1,000 to $1,500 a week, and has managed to break even on the front end while seeing roughly a 40% conversion rate on his $97 upsell. He's honest about what he got wrong with the ads early on and what he's still figuring out.What made this conversation interesting was how clearly Nick thinks about the value he's delivering. His argument for running AI locally, cutting out subscription costs, removing censorship restrictions, and getting more raw processing power, is simple and compelling. You can feel how much he wants his students to actually succeed with this.There's also a genuinely good moment near the end where Nick talks about waking up and realizing he's running a real business for the first time. It's the kind of thing that's easy to rush past, but worth sitting with.I think you'll enjoy this one.Check out Nick's work:🌐 https://pixelpandorium.com📸 https://www.instagram.com/pixel_pandorium/
