Last Call for the ChatGPT Course – It Won’t be Back Until to 2027

The Survival Podcast Posted on by  

Our 5th round of the course is the first one to not sell out, so we do have some open seats.  Sales were still strong and we have a great class starting on Monday.  That said when we didn’t sell out Tom and I talked about this and think we may be doing too many too close together. So this is last call for 2026.  We will be shutting down sales on Friday Night, sold out or not.  We will likely also not run another round of the course until Feb-March of next year.  We will soon have a few … Continue reading →

A time bomb is ticking, and it is the kind of bomb you can not disarm. We all hear it. We keep hoping some fiscal bomb squad will show up and shut it down, but deep down, we know they are not coming. The question is not if the bomb goes off. It is when, and what the aftermath looks like. Run from the blast radius? You can not. Forty trillion dollars in US federal debt is more powerful than any weapon we have ever detonated. But this bomb does not level a city overnight. It corrodes and breaks down … Continue reading →
