AI Hype, Broken Tools, and What Actually Works

In this episode of The Web Talk Show, host Armando J. Perez-Carreño sits down with Mike Carlo, founder of PowerBI.tips, and co-host of the Explicit Measures Podcast.

We go deep on:

Why AI tools aren’t as magical as YouTube makes them look
The real challenges of building apps vs. consulting
Why content is the new sales funnel
How to use AI without getting burned by hallucinations
The future of prompt-based software, education, and micro-apps

Mike shares hard-earned insights on transitioning from consulting to products, the myth of "easy wins" with AI, and how to actually ship useful things in a hype-heavy tech world.

This one's packed with real talk, practical advice, and a few spicy takes. Whether you're in data, dev, or building something of your own, don't miss it.
