In this episode of Early Adoptr, Kyle and Jess bust the biggest AI myth of all: “We don’t have enough data.” The truth? You’re already swimming in it. From emails to spreadsheets to customer conversations, every business has more than enough information to start building AI-powered insights.


To prove it, they bring in data veteran Eric, who’s spent 15+ years cleaning up messy data for startups and enterprises alike. Eric shares why even Fortune 500s are struggling with data quality, how to avoid AI hype traps, and why the “hot dog story” from his kid’s PTA is the perfect metaphor for every business owner’s data nightmare.


You’ll also hear why dashboards break, what “Shift Left” really means, and how to spot untapped data hiding in plain sight. Plus: the latest AI news, from Anthropic’s billion-dollar copyright settlement to sneaky YouTube AI editing.
