Kellye Kamp, Founder & CEO of SourceKamp Labs joins Sanjay Kalluvilayil to explain why Gen X solopreneurs have a real edge in the AI shift and how to reinvent your career without getting overwhelmed.

Kellye breaks down why learning generative AI is no longer optional, why the traditional 9 to 5 is weakening for many, and why the smartest move is to start small, stay curious, and build practical workflows that compound.

She also shares how executives can organize knowledge in one place, pull the right context on demand, and rapidly turn ideas into lightweight tools without needing deep engineering skills.

Julian Goldie, Founder & CEO, Goldie Agency, joins Sanjay Kalluvilayil to unpack the real AI impact on SEO, what’s changing, what’s breaking, and what still wins. Julian shares how he adapted his agency as AI accelerated faster than most teams expected, why “SEO is dead” is the wrong framing, and how to evolve into AI-first search and content systems as SEO changes heading into 2026.

He also discusses how he moved from Manchester, England in the UK to escape the traditional 9 to 5 to run his agency out of Thailand.  3 Key insights1. Optimizing SEO vs. GEO - Search is shifting from blue links to AI answers. - Train the LLM models to “learn” your brand as the authority across the web and social media2. GEO is the New Moat - AI for high quality, low cost content generation and marketing - Al for lead gen and AI automated outreach3. Execution speed becomes the advantage. - AI lowers content generation and testing costs. - The teams that iterate faster compound wins while everyone else debates.🌐 AI Profit Boardroom Affiliate Link: https://www.skool.com/ai-profit-lab-7462/about?ref=51dd39ed3b28419fa5cc1c89092854c4The AI Space Podcast — Season 2 | Episode 3🎙️ Guest: Julian Goldie | Founder & CEO | Goldie Agency | AI Profit Boardroom🎙️ Host: Sanjay Kalluvilayil | Founder & CEO | Stonehaas Advisors | Creator | The AI Space Podcast 🔔 Subscribe - Game-changing real world insights for AI Founders & Start-ups!Key Links: 🌐 https://theaispacepodcast.ai📅 https://calendly.com/sanjay-stonehaasadvisors/ai-advantage-15-minChapters00:00 Trailer01:37 Welcome and Introductions02:48 Key Trends in AI03:37 Top AI Strategies to Grow & Scale4:41 Julian's AI Journey07:35 Goldie Agency - SEO 10:21 Founder & CEO Role11:00 '7 & 8 Figure' Companies11:41 AI Profit Boardroom13:50 AI Architecture & Tech Stack21:30 AI Design & Creativity24:27 2025 Biggest AI Shock26:30 2026 Key Insights28:16 AI "Snacking"29:00 Google AI Evolution31:15 Why The AI Space Podcast?33:39 Subscribe & Follow Us33:57 Vision, Mindset, & Strategy35:50 Balancing Energy & Impact39:04 Getting Your First Clients42:08 GEO vs. SEO43:44 Streamline & Scale Operations46:44 AI Democratization51:30 Ethical & Responsible AI54:12 Final Thoughts & Encouragement56:41 Outro57:00 Subscribe & Follow UsHost Bio: Sanjay Kalluvilayil is a visionary leader on a mission to help AI businesses win clients, convert sales, and scale operations to maximize cash flow and valuation.

Eric Siegel, Founder and CEO, of Gooder AI explains to Sanjay Kalluvilayil, Founder and CEO, of Stonehaas Advisors the difference between Predictive AI and Generative AI and how the two really need to work to solve one another's great limitations in a hybridized fashion. How we can start realizing at least a good portion of what's generally audacious promise of autonomy of generative AI with a new kind of reliability layer that's semi-autonomous and that involves developing the right guardrails in a bespoke manner for each problem that you're trying to solve. They try to put the AGI hype in its place and differentiate between the real feasible potential value and use cases versus a lot of the public narrative that tends to over promise.Key Insights1. Machine Learning and Predictive AI still have untapped opportunities to drive real business ROI, but is being overshadowed by generative hype.2. Generative AI needs a “reliability layer” with guardrails and 'humans in the loop' to be production-ready and ensure quality,3. The future of AI is hybrid, combining predictive precision with generative flexibility to generate meaningful results.4. The "AGI" and “agentic AI” hype cycle risks creating an unsustainable AI bubble with severe consequences5. Real AI success comes from human collaboration, grounded strategy, and patience to find the best places to grow and scale an organization.🎙️ The AI Space Podcast — Ep. 24 Guest: Eric Siegel | Founder & CEO | Gooder AIChapters00:00 Trailer01:23 Teaser02:08 Welcome and Introductions03:15 Hottest Trends in AI07:12 Top AI Strategies to Grow & Scale10:22 Eric's AI-ML Journey16:41 Gooder AI Overview22:12 AIML Tech Overview25:02 Bank Fraud or Churn27:46 Predictive vs. Generative AI36:36 Why this AI Podcast? 37:30 Subscribe & Follow Us38:33 Vision, Mindset, & Strategy43:10 Actions & Execution47:30 How to Grow and Scale49:24 AI Autonomy Hype51:47 Foundational Models 54:33 Democratization56:43 Ethical & Responsible AI59:09 AI Stock Bubble1:01:07 Realistic Future of AI1:04:15 Final Thoughts & Encouragement1:04:54 Outro1:05:08 Subscribe & Follow UsKey Links: 🌐 https://theaispacepodcast.ai🌐 https://stonehaasadvisors.com/📅 https://calendly.com/sanjay-stonehaasadvisors/ai-advantage-15-min🔗 https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjaykalluvilayil/🔗 https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-aispace-podcast-with-host-sanjay-kalluvilayil/Host Bio: Sanjay Kalluvilayil is a visionary leader on a mission to help AI businesses win clients, convert sales, and scale operations to maximize cash flow and valuation.
