Imagine if your top expert—maybe even you—could be available 24/7, across multiple languages, without burning out. Sounds like science fiction? For many SMB leaders, the knowledge held by key individuals becomes a bottleneck, limiting growth and overwhelming crucial team members. But what if AI offered a way not to replace, but to amplify that irreplaceable human expertise?

Today, I'm talking with George B. Thomas, widely known as "The HubSpot Helper," but we're diving deep into something even more cutting-edge. George has actually built an AI Digital Clone of himself – an AI trained on over 16 million words of his unique content, insights, and perhaps most importantly, his core values and beliefs. Discover how this isn't just about creating a chatbot, but about authentically scaling human expertise to augment his team and serve his audience in ways previously impossible.

George firmly believes AI's true power lies in augmentation, not replacement. He shares how his AI clone functions as an internal assistant, a content creation partner, and an external resource, allowing his human team to focus on higher-value tasks. Forget the hype; this is a real-world look at creating a human-centric AI that embodies your unique essence.
