In this lively FridAI episode of Business Brain, Dave Hamilton and Shannon Jean dive into personal experiments with AI tools. Shannon shares how he used AI to analyze his credit card and bank statements, uncovering surprising expenses like $1,143 spent on SaaS subscriptions and nearly $700 on Amazon. He discusses how he’s using AI tools like ChatGPT and Replit to create more efficient systems and audit his finances, even replacing paid services like FreshBooks. The hosts also explore the potential of AI agents for canceling unused subscriptions and discuss privacy considerations around sharing financial data with AI.
The conversation then shifts to creative uses of AI. Dave plays a country song he created using the AI music generator Suno, using only a single line of text as the hook. They talk about how tools like Suno help quickly flesh out creative ideas and iterate on them. The song’s hook, “The beer made it better for a minute,” sparks laughter and even a potential t-shirt idea.
The episode wraps with sponsor messages and an open invitation for listeners to share how they’re using AI. Whether it’s for productivity or creativity, Dave and Shannon highlight the power of these tools to simplify life and business — while always keeping things fun and engaging.
