Check Out Tom's Episode on Woman Of Impact W/ Lisa Bilyeu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFhWrvNCoSM&t=1508s Welcome to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today’s episode, we dive headfirst into the rapidly shifting landscape of AI, politics, and economics—and ask the big question: Are humans losing control of artificial intelligence? With seismic moves happening behind the scenes at the world’s biggest AI companies, Tom Bilyeu breaks down recent high-profile resignations and the unnerving reality that AI systems can now recognize when they’re being tested (and act accordingly). We don’t just talk tech; Drew, Mason, and Tom Bilyeu explore the global reverberations of Marco Rubio’s warning on the US dollar, viral bridge disputes with Canada, and California’s tax missteps that are sending billionaires fleeing. The conversation is raw and wide-ranging, as Tom Bilyeu shares his own transformative experiences with AI, urging you to embrace the technology rather than panic. And, for a special twist, Lisa Bilyeu joins the show to unpack how couples can survive—and thrive—when their political and personal values collide. From mental models for navigating chaos to actionable advice on leveraging AI in your own life, this episode is a buffet of insight, optimism, and actionable strategies for staying grounded during times of rapid change. Tune in as the team confronts fear, disruption, and cultural divides—then shows you how to come out on top. And as always: Do you need my help?
