I have been self-employed for close to 30 years. I have had multiple businesses, some I stayed in for too long and some I may have quit earlier than I should. I am looking to spread some knowledge, but need specific questions so that I can answer them truthfully and show you what could have been done differently. Basically I want to use the knowledge I have gained to show you how not to do it.
What is the most effecient and easiest way to keep up with technology and “smarter” solutions? I mean you have experienced the rise of the internet and artificial intelligence. Do you just constantly have to be up to date or do you need to rely on consultants, network and “new generations”?
The most efficient way is probably having people good at that stuff, My way is learning what I need when I need it. New generations seem to find it easier to learn new stuff, the older I get the less ambition I have.
I used to be an early adopter, but now I find adopting early just pisses me off. I am finding AI to be more of a pain in the arse than a real benefit, most tech starts that way though, and gets better.
