548. Riding the AI Wave with Sam Richter

Stephan Spencer
About this episode

What if you could give yourself an extra week every year?

That's exactly what my guest, Sam Richter, did by automating just ONE repetitive task in his business.

Sam, a keynote speaker and AI-powered sales intelligence pioneer, discovered that by creating a custom AI assistant for his presentation slides, he reduced his prep time from 25 minutes to 5 minutes per presentation. Across 100 presentations per year, that's 2,000 minutes saved—essentially a free 53rd week in his year.

In this Get Yourself Optimized episode, Sam breaks down: 

✅ The GUIDE framework for writing prompts that reduce AI hallucinations

✅ Why treating AI like an intern gets better outcomes than treating it like a search engine 

✅ How a retail company used AI to optimize staffing in under 5 minutes (a task that would have taken days manually) 

✅ The difference between traditional AI and generative AI—and why it matters 

✅ Custom GPTs, system prompts, and memory features that personalize your AI experience

This isn't about replacing humans—it's about amplifying what makes us human. What repetitive task in your business could you automate this week?

The show notes, including the transcript and checklist to this episode, are at getyourselfoptimized.com/548.
