Actual Intelligence in the Age of AI - Episode 6
from Less Is the Strategy - with Ant Hodges · host Ant Hodges
In this episode, Ant Hodges dives into the book “Actual Intelligence” by Kenny Rueter and Jonathan Cronstedt, co-CEOs of Kajabi. Ant shares why this short, free book became one of his most validating reads, powerfully aligning with his own “simplify” philosophy and the ideas in his book “Simplify the Funnel.” Using the book’s core concept – the Expert Equation (Expertise × Visibility × Availability = Value) – Ant unpacks why credentials alone are not enough, why “build it then sell it” and “sell it before you build it” are both flawed for most experts, and why starting with paid 1:1 work is the smartest way to build a knowledge business in the age of AI. This episode is a call to simplify, to bring the human back into your business and your funnel, and to lean into your lived experience as your real differentiator from AI and automation.
