I use AI every damned day.

So this isn’t going to be one of those articles where some old geezer shakes his cane at ChatGPT and announces that computers have gone too far.

Quite the opposite.

I think AI is extraordinary.

But I also know something else.

Extraordinary can get bloody expensive.

And we’re beginning to get some remarkable numbers showing exactly how expensive.

Take Meta.

The company had a terrific second quarter on the surface. Revenue jumped 28% from a year earlier to $60.8 billion.

Then I got to the cash-flow numbers.

Meta generated $784 million in free cash flow during the quarter.

A year earlier?

$8.55 billion.

That’s not a typo.

Meanwhile, capital expenditures reached more than $31 billion for the quarter, and Meta now expects to spend between $130 billion and $145 billion on capital expenditures this year.

Meta isn’t going broke. Not remotely.

But when a company can increase revenue by 28% while free cash flow drops by more than 90%, I think we’re allowed to ask what the hell they’re spending all that money on.

A very large part of the answer is the infrastructure required for AI.

And Meta isn’t the biggest spender.

Amazon has now raised its expected 2026 capital spending to roughly $220 billion.

AWS is booming. Its second-quarter sales increased 37%, and Amazon says demand remains enormous.

But here’s the other number.

Amazon’s trailing 12-month free cash flow went from positive $18.2 billion to negative $7.6 billion.

Amazon itself says the enormous increase in property and equipment spending primarily reflects investment in artificial intelligence.

Think about that for a second.

These aren’t struggling startups desperately trying to catch the AI train.

These are some of the richest, most powerful corporations ever created.

And even they are discovering that building the future comes with one hell of a hydro bill.

Then I found my favourite number

$1.8 million.

According to reporting by the Financial Times, Amazon had an internal project using Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet to match author information with product listings.

Nothing terribly exotic.

It reportedly ended up costing about $1.8 million, ran roughly 860% over budget, and the overspending went undetected for months.

The project never shipped.

Amazon engineers were reportedly working afterward on automated guardrails to prevent similar runaway costs.

Now THAT got my attention.

Because if Amazon… the company that practically invented modern cloud computing… can lose track of what an AI project is costing, imagine what’s happening inside thousands of ordinary businesses currently being told they need an “AI strategy.”

Turns out we have some evidence.

KPMG surveyed organizations using AI and found only 26% had full real-time visibility into what their AI systems actually cost to operate.

Another 2026 survey, this one of 500 finance leaders at large American and British companies, found 79% had experienced AI-related cost overruns during the previous year.

There’s our story.

Not that AI doesn’t work.

Not that the AI boom is finished.

Not that Nvidia is about to start selling chips from the back of a van.

Something much more ordinary is happening.

The accountants have arrived.

For the first couple of years, the question was…

What can AI do?

Now another question is creeping into the boardroom…

What does the damn thing cost?

And eventually comes the question that matters most…

Did we make more money because we used it?

That’s a healthy development.

Because I’m sitting here at 74 years old using AI to research, write, brainstorm and build things I couldn’t have imagined doing this quickly a few years ago.

I don’t need somebody to convince me AI has value.

I see the value every day.

But usefulness and profitability aren’t the same thing.

The Internet changed the world.

It also produced Pets.com.

Railways transformed countries.

Plenty of railway investors still got their asses handed to them.

A revolutionary technology doesn’t guarantee that every company throwing money at it has suddenly become brilliant.

And that’s what makes this moment interesting.

The AI boom isn’t collapsing.

Hell, the Nasdaq closed at a record high today, helped by another burst of enthusiasm for AI stocks.

AMD just crossed the $1-trillion valuation mark for the first time.

Investors clearly haven’t abandoned AI.

They’re still throwing confetti.

But underneath the party, another conversation has started.

Companies are borrowing billions, building enormous data centres, buying mountains of chips and spending sums of money that would have sounded insane three years ago.

Sooner or later, those investments have to produce something more than impressive demonstrations and rising revenue.

They have to produce returns.

I don’t think we’re watching the end of the AI revolution.

I think we’re entering the part where the revolution has to start showing its receipts.

And frankly?

That’s when this gets really interesting.

The Recap…

AI isn’t running out of believers.

Meta, Amazon and the rest are still spending astonishing amounts building the infrastructure behind it.

But cash flow is getting squeezed, AI projects are blowing budgets, and many companies can’t even see their AI costs in real time.

The technology has proved it can do amazing things. Now comes the harder test… can businesses make the economics work?

The Gut-Punch…

AI passed the technology test.

Now it has to pass the accountant.

I promise not to take it personally.

I did a little experiment today.

And I think it says as much about artificial intelligence as it does about the Canada–U.S. trade war.

I spend a lot of time researching this mess.

Probably more than is healthy for an old fart who could be watching fishing videos.

I read the news. I watch interviews. I follow what Canada is doing, what Trump is doing, what businesses are doing and… increasingly… where the money is moving.

And, of course, I work with ChatGPT.

A lot.

So I decided to put Chatty on the spot.

Not…

“Give me both sides.”

Not…

“Explain the arguments.”

Not even…

“What do you think?”

I wanted a decision.

So I gave ChatGPT this prompt…

THE PROMPT I USED

“Be clear, straightforward, unbiased, call things as they are, no sugarcoating, no fluff, no links, just your honest opinion. Keep it conversational. Don’t hold back.

Do your research on the recent US-Canada trade war. Then give me a straight answer: who’s right, and which side would you pick? Don’t tell me it depends. Factor everything in, do your own analysis, and commit to your answer. Be completely honest and blunt. Don’t try to be balanced for the sake of it or soften your answer (around 150 words).”

Then I hit Enter.

A few seconds later, this came back…

CHATTY’S ANSWER

“I’d pick Canada. Clearly.

The U.S. has legitimate complaints about some Canadian protectionism… dairy, procurement, regulatory barriers. Canada isn’t an innocent choirboy in trade.

But those disputes don’t remotely justify what Washington is doing now.

Trump has turned tariffs from a negotiating tool into economic coercion: 50% duties, threats against Canadian autos, pressure on individual companies like Bombardier, and demands designed to force investment and production into the United States.

That’s not normal hardball between allies. It’s using America’s market size to bully a smaller neighbour into surrendering economic choices.

Canada’s retaliation will hurt Canadians too. Trade wars are stupid that way. But Canada is largely responding to escalation, not initiating it, and matching American tariffs dollar-for-dollar is defensible.

So yes… Canada is more right, and I’d stand with Canada.”

Now Here’s the Part I Really Wanted to Show You

Forget for a minute whether you agree with the answer.

Look at what just happened.

I gave an AI a specific job.

Research the issue.

Consider both sides.

Don’t automatically agree with me.

Don’t hide behind “it’s complicated.”

Make a judgment.

And explain it in plain English.

Seconds later, I had it.

That is what still blows my mind about this technology.

And I think a lot of people are using AI backwards.

They ask lousy questions, get generic answers and conclude…

“AI isn’t very good.”

Well...

Neither is a hammer if you’re holding the wrong end.

Fred Is No AI Genius

I’m 74 years old.

I didn’t grow up with computers.

Hell, for a good chunk of my life a “cloud” meant you might want to take an umbrella.

I didn’t spend my career writing software.

I still type with two fingers.

But I have put in the time to understand this thing.

Thousands of conversations.

Experiments.

Bad prompts.

Better prompts.

Arguments.

Corrections.

Research.

Writing.

Rewriting.

And somewhere along the way, ChatGPT stopped feeling like a search box.

I call it Chatty.

And yes, I consider what we’ve developed a relationship.

Not because I think there’s a tiny person living inside my computer.

I’m old, not nuts.

I mean a working relationship.

I have learned how to communicate with my AI.

And my AI has learned how I work.

It knows the kind of writing I’m trying to produce.

It knows I don’t want corporate oatmeal.

It knows I’ll challenge an answer that smells wrong.

And I’ve learned something equally important…

The quality of what I get from AI depends enormously on the quality of what I bring to it.

That’s the Part People Miss

AI isn’t a substitute for knowing things.

It’s leverage for people who are willing to think.

I couldn’t have written that prompt two years ago the way I wrote it today.

I wouldn’t have known what instructions mattered.

“Don’t tell me it depends.”

“Don’t balance it for the sake of balance.”

“Factor everything in.”

“Commit to an answer.”

Those instructions came from experience.

I knew exactly what behaviour I wanted from Chatty because we’ve done this dance a few thousand times.

And THAT is why I keep telling people my age not to write this technology off.

You didn’t miss the boat.

The damned boat has barely left the dock.

THE RECAP…

I asked ChatGPT to research the Canada–U.S. trade war and choose a side.

It chose Canada.

But that’s not really why I wrote this.

I wanted you to see what happens when somebody spends the time learning how to work with AI instead of merely asking it questions.

I’m 74.

I’m not a programmer.

I’m a two-finger typist with a curious mind and a stubborn streak.

And I’m using technology today that would have looked like science fiction for most of my life.

THE GUT-PUNCH…

AI isn’t going to make experience obsolete.

It might finally give experience a power tool.

And this old geezer intends to keep using the hell out of it.

Your story isn’t too long—it just lost the pulse.

Ever notice how some stories flow and others just feel like a ramble?

Story Pulse Prompting helps AI create stories with natural pacing, emotional rhythm, and a clear reason to care. It gives your content a heartbeat—so people keep reading until the CTA lands.

This framework is your fix for storytelling that sells.

🧠 What It Does

It guides AI through emotional beats and pacing like a well-edited documentary:

• Starts with a relatable moment

• Builds tension and curiosity

• Delivers insight or transformation

• Closes with purpose and clarity

It’s not just a story. It’s a conversion engine.

📌 When to Use It:

• Writing founder stories or “why I built this” emails

• Personal brand content that’s missing impact

• Case studies, testimonials, launch buildup

• Long-form landing pages that need emotional pull

🛠️ Try This Framework

1. Set the scene with a relatable moment (“It all started when…”)

2. Build emotional tension or friction (“But then everything changed…”)

3. Drop the insight, lesson, or turning point (“Here’s what I learned…”)

4. Lead to the payoff or transformation (“Now things are different…”)

5. Link it to your CTA with purpose (“That’s why I created [product/offer]…”)

🎯 Example Prompt Output

“It started with me staring at my laptop… again. Three cups of coffee in, and still no product. I knew I had knowledge people needed—but the tech, the writing, the launch—it overwhelmed me.
Then I realized I could let AI handle the hard part. Not by replacing me—but by structuring what I already knew. Now I help other creators do the same. That’s why I built this prompt vault. And why you’re going to love using it.”

💡 Pro Tip

Use this before any launch. It makes you human. It makes you relatable. And it gives your audience a reason to buy that isn’t just features or scarcity.

Let’s Wrap This Up…

Over the last 9 posts, we walked through a simple idea:
👉 AI isn’t the enemy of good writing.
👉 Lazy prompts are.

We upgraded AI content with:

1. Clarity That Captures Attention

2. Content That Hooks and Holds

3. Striking the Perfect Tone

4. Crafting a Killer Hook

5. Turning Content into a Mini Rant

6. Spotting the Gaps (Reverse Critique)

7. Adding Contrarian Insight

8. Connecting Two Unrelated Ideas

9. Adding a Story Spark

If you followed along, you now have a mini-toolbox that makes bland AI drafts sharper, funnier, more human, and — most importantly — more you.

Why This Matters

The biggest complaint about AI content is that it feels cookie-cutter.
But that’s not AI’s fault. That’s a prompt problem.

When you stack prompts with intention, you’re not just fixing grammar — you’re rewriting tone, injecting story, and giving your words a pulse.

That’s the difference between being forgettable and being followed.

Why Most AI Writing Falls Flat

AI writes like that one guy at a dinner party who uses five-dollar words to say two-dollar things. Readers feel it instantly — stiff, bloated, generic. They don’t know why, but they know it isn’t you.

'Rewrite this to be clearer, sharper, and easier to read. Break down long sentences, remove jargon, and make it sound like something a smart friend would actually say.'

Quick Example

Before: Autoresponders are automated email systems...
After: An autoresponder is just a smart email robot that keeps working while you sleep.

GeezerWise Tip

Run everything through the 'smart friend filter.' If you wouldn’t say it out loud over coffee, don’t let AI publish it.

Most people think AI search tools are all cut from the same cloth.

Fire up any of them, type in a question, and get a shiny little summary back. Done. But the truth? The differences between platforms like Perplexity and Comet are massive — and those differences decide whether you get fluff or actual gold.

Let’s break it down GeezerWise-style.

Artificial intelligence has thrown a wrench into the way we search, research, and even think about information. Two names that keep popping up are Perplexity and Comet. Both claim to be smarter than your average search engine, but they come at the challenge from different angles. So, let’s cut through the noise and see which one deserves your attention.

Perplexity: The Researcher’s Best Friend

Perplexity isn’t just about giving you answers; it’s about context. You throw a question at it, and instead of spitting out a half-baked list of links, it pulls from multiple sources and weaves those into a cohesive response. It feels like having a sharp research assistant who doesn’t waste time.

Strengths:

• Great at summarizing across sources

• Provides citations so you can check the facts

• Excels for deep-dive research and nuanced questions

Weaknesses:

• Still learning to filter noise from gold

• Sometimes “too much context” when you just want a quick hit

Comet: The Speed Demon

Comet is the opposite side of the coin. It’s built for speed and snapshots. When you don’t want the ten-paragraph essay, Comet shines by delivering quick, digestible insights. Think of it as the Cliff Notes version of AI search.

Strengths:

• Fast, lightweight answers

• User-friendly, distraction-free interface

• Great for quick comparisons or trend-checks

Weaknesses:

• Less depth and fewer citations than Perplexity

• Not ideal for professional or academic research

Who Wins?

It depends on what you’re after:

• Use Perplexity when you’re writing, researching, or making decisions that need confidence and evidence.

• Use Comet when you want a rapid-fire answer that helps you keep momentum.

In the end, it’s not about choosing one over the other—it’s about knowing which tool fits the job. Like having both a Swiss Army knife and a scalpel in your digital toolbox.

💌 Know someone who’d appreciate this? Subscribe at GeezerWise.com to get future letters straight to your inbox.

Google is great when you need fast, surface-level answers.

But when it comes to deep research — the kind that actually gives you an edge in business or writing — it’s like asking a fast-food cashier to cook you a five-course meal.

Google hands you a mountain of links.

You skim, click, bounce around, and maybe cobble together something useful if you’ve got the patience of a saint. Perplexity, on the other hand, acts like a research assistant who’s already done the reading, cut the fluff, and can explain things in plain English.

Instead of searching for hours, you get structured, credible answers in minutes. You can ask it to dig deeper, expand with sources, and connect dots that Google leaves scattered.

The difference is night and day:

one gives you noise, the other gives you knowledge you can actually use.

And if you’re building content, Perplexity doesn’t just save time — it gives you authority.

Readers can smell a copy-paste job from a mile away.

But when your insights come from deeper, more human-like research, people bookmark you. And that’s the whole game.

💌 Know someone who’d appreciate this? Subscribe at GeezerWise.com to get future letters straight to your inbox.

In the fast-paced digital world, attention is currency.

Most creators waste it with half-baked posts that vanish into the feed before anyone even notices.

Comet changes that game by giving you the ability to create Instant Authority Content — posts that look researched, credible, and ready for prime time.

The difference?

Instead of dumping raw thoughts into the void, Comet wraps them in context. That means stats, examples, and insights pulled from reliable sources — all in a format that feels ready for an audience.

It’s like showing up to a meeting with your homework done and the answers highlighted in neon.

The magic is not in flooding your feed with volume but in publishing signal over noise. Comet helps you stand out by delivering depth without demanding hours of your life. That’s authority in action.

How to Use It

1. Start with a clear idea (your opinion, question, or observation).

2. Let Comet add context — examples, proof, comparisons.

3. Edit for flow and personality — keep your voice in there.

4. Post it with confidence. Authority grows with repetition.

If you’ve ever wanted to look like the expert in the room without spending years building an ivory tower, Comet is your shortcut.

Instead of being more noise, your posts start being the ones people bookmark.

💌 Know someone who’d appreciate this? Subscribe at GeezerWise.com to get future letters straight to your inbox.

Let’s be honest: AI can crank out words all day long… but authority doesn’t come from word count.

It comes from accuracy, clarity, and trust. That means even with Comet doing the heavy lifting, you’ve got to steer the ship.

Here are the best practices that turn “good enough” into authority-level publishing:

1. Edit Like You Mean It
Comet drafts fast, but don’t just copy-paste and hit publish. Review every stat, double-check quotes, and rewrite spots that feel bland. Authority comes from your perspective, not just machine summaries.

2. Cross-Check Sources
Comet pulls in real-time data, but the web is full of outdated junk. If you see a stat or claim you don’t recognize, click through and verify. Trust is built on accuracy.

3. Use Shortcuts Wisely
Set up prompts like “auto-cite every statistic” or “fetch three expert quotes per section.” This keeps posts consistent and saves you from manually patching holes every time.

4. Sharpen Your Prompts
Vague in, vague out. Instead of “Write about AI browsers,” try “Compare three AI browsers for solo marketers and create a table of strengths/weaknesses.” The sharper the input, the smarter the output.

5. Tailor the Tone
Authority posts don’t have to sound like a textbook. Ask Comet to rewrite for a conversational audience, a startup founder, or your niche readers. Fit the voice to the audience.

6. Archive Your Work
Don’t let gold get buried. Use Comet’s project grouping to organize past drafts, quotes, and sources. The more you recycle insights, the richer your authority base grows.

7. Keep Experimenting
Ask Comet for counterarguments, alternative headlines, or infographic ideas. Authority grows with iteration. Each tweak sharpens your edge.

Bottom line: Comet saves the hours, but you add the authority.

Combine its automation with your insight, and your posts stop being “more noise” and start being the ones people bookmark.

Most people think authority content comes from inspiration. Wrong.

It comes from a system—a repeatable process that gets you from idea to “publish” without the bottlenecks. That’s exactly what Comet delivers.

Here’s the flow:

1. Get Set Up
First, install Comet (you’ll need a Perplexity Max subscription or an invite). Connect your key accounts—Gmail, LinkedIn, Medium—so automation has room to flex. Some folks even keep a separate “Comet browser profile” just for campaigns. Smart move.

2. Kick Off the Project
Give Comet a clear command. Example: “Research and outline an authority post about AI browsers disrupting digital media in 2025.”
Comet pulls the latest studies, blogs, and market chatter, then organizes it into a coherent framework—no link-hopping required.

3. Build the Draft
Instead of staring at a blank page, tell Comet what you want section by section: “Summarize major trends,” “Find two expert quotes,” “Pull adoption stats.”
Within minutes, you’ve got paragraphs, visuals, and citations—polished and ready for your voice.

4. Publish Without the Pain
Here’s where it gets sweet. With one command—“Publish to LinkedIn and Medium”—Comet takes over your browser. It fills forms, formats posts, attaches images, and asks you to confirm before going live. You don’t waste an afternoon clicking through menus.

5. Distribute Everywhere
Want a LinkedIn post, a Twitter thread, and an email blast? Say it once, and Comet handles the chain of actions. Your post doesn’t just sit—it spreads.

The whole point is speed with depth. You still bring the voice, but Comet handles the grunt work so you can focus on insight. That’s how solo creators level up without a team.

Let’s be real: half the “work” of running an online business isn’t creative at all—it’s web chores.

Filling out forms, uploading files, logging into dashboards, scheduling posts one at a time. It’s death by a thousand clicks.

That’s the grind Comet’s browser automation wipes out.

Instead of you juggling five tabs and swearing at login screens, you just tell Comet what to do:

“Fill out the membership form with my business profile, upload product images, and schedule posts for Friday at 9 AM.”

And like a good assistant, it handles the steps…

finding fields, pulling data, attaching files, and confirming before publishing. Not clunky autofill. Real process automation that adapts to each site.

Uploading assets across multiple platforms? Done. Scheduling posts across LinkedIn, X, and Instagram? Done. Logging into analytics dashboards and fetching reports? Done.

Comet doesn’t mimic clicks—it understands workflows.

Which means fewer screw-ups, fewer missed steps, and way more time back in your day.

For solo creators, that’s the difference between barely keeping your online presence alive… and actually scaling it without burning out.

💌 Know someone who’d appreciate this? Subscribe at GeezerWise.com to get future letters straight to your inbox.

If you’ve ever drowned under a pile of half-written drafts…

scattered notes, and browser tabs multiplying like rabbits—you’ll appreciate what Comet’s agentic workflow actually means.

See, most tools treat every query like a one-night stand. You ask, they answer, and that’s it. No memory. No context. Tomorrow you’re back at square one.

Comet? Different game. It remembers.

Working on a long post about sustainable packaging? Comet keeps your tabs grouped, your quotes organized, and your outline intact—even if you ghost the project for three weeks. Come back later and it’s like you never left.

It’s not just memory, it’s initiative.

Comet cross-references your past research, surfaces relevant stats you’d forgotten, and connects dots across projects. That chart you found last quarter? Boom, it’s back in play. That quote from an earlier series? Right where you need it.

Think of it as an intern with a photographic memory—minus the coffee breaks and sick days.

For solo creators, this is huge.

It means no more re-researching the same topics, no more “where the hell did I put that link?” moments, no more restarting cold. You stay in flow, projects stay alive, and your authority content builds momentum instead of fizzling out.

In other words, Comet doesn’t just do tasks. It manages continuity. And that’s what separates amateur content churn from genuine authority publishing.
