15: Using AI for Small Business Growth with Ashley Gross
In this episode, Chris Daigle interviews Ashley Gross, an early adopter of generative AI in marketing. Ashley shares her journey of discovering and leveraging generative AI tools in her personal and professional life, and how she is now launching her own AI training community "The Prompt" to make these powerful tools accessible to entrepreneurs and small business owners. Ashley discusses the importance of being mindful of bias and representation in AI, and provides practical tips on how to effectively and ethically incorporate generative AI into your work.
