Transcript

Chaining together brittle Zapier zaps that break constantly is bad. Building complex workflows with n8n is good. Building fully autonomous agents and automations with NeuralSeek is excellent. Paying Midjourney a subscription for images you don't truly own is bad. Using Replicate paying pennies per generation is good. Running Flux on your own hardware with no limitations is excellent. Spending your weekends fighting plug-ins in WordPress is bad. Designing beautiful sites visually with Framer is good. Building full stack web apps with Lovable is excellent. Getting all your AI updates from the news is bad. Reading the raw documentation yourself is good. And following Liam for more AI tips is excellent.
