Every Day There's a New AI Headline.
Every Day You Feel a Little More Behind.

The Noise Is Deafening

Every week brings a new tool, a new acronym, a new warning. You've tried to keep up, but nobody explains what any of it actually means for your business, your career, or your family.

๐Ÿ™„

The Explanations Are Worse

The AI conversation is dominated by 25-year-olds in hoodies speaking a language designed to exclude you. You're not stupid โ€” you're just not the audience they're talking to.

The Clock Is Ticking

You know AI matters. You know you need to understand it. But every "beginner's guide" assumes you already know things you don't โ€” and you don't have time to start from zero.

The Adult in the Room on AI

I'm Brett โ€” Chief Revenue Officer of an AI and robotics manufacturing company based in Pittsburgh. We build AI-powered computer vision systems across verticals from defense to heavy industry. I'm also a licensed attorney and a former software founder.

But here's what sets me apart: My job, all day every day, is taking incredibly complex technical ideas and translating them into language that anyone can understand. That's not a side hobby โ€” it's literally what I do for a living.

So I started doing the same thing for everyone else. No jargon. No hype. Just: here's what AI is, here's what it does, and here's how you can start using it today.

  • I actually build AI โ€” I'm not just talking about it
  • I speak like a real person, not a Silicon Valley press release
  • My goal is to make you confident, not dependent

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely not. If you can use email and Google, you have everything you need. The whole point of Brett Explains AI is that you don't need a computer science degree โ€” you just need someone who explains things like a normal person.

More than you think. AI can help you manage finances, stay connected with family, organize photos, plan travel, understand your health, and even pick up new hobbies. It's not just a work tool โ€” it's a life tool. And understanding it means nobody can take advantage of your unfamiliarity with it.

Most AI content is made by tech people for tech people. I build AI for a living, but I explain it the way I'd explain it to my parents โ€” with humor, patience, and zero assumptions about what you already know. Plus, the consultation gives you a personalized plan, not generic advice.

We spend 60 minutes together โ€” I learn about your work, your daily routine, and where you're feeling stuck or curious. Then I identify the 2โ€“3 specific AI tools that would save you the most time and show you exactly how to use them. After the session, you get a written action plan you can follow at your own pace.

Yes โ€” I regularly speak to civic organizations, professional groups, retirement communities, and small businesses. Presentations can range from a 30-minute overview to a half-day interactive workshop. Reach out through the booking page and we'll customize something for your group.

You Don't Need to Become a Technologist.
You Just Need a Good Translator.

The AI wave isn't slowing down. But understanding it doesn't have to be painful, boring, or condescending. Let's get you caught up โ€” in plain English.
