Between 2023 and 2025, 'AI and the different ways to use it' content has been everywhere.
On November 3rd, 2023, the solution sold was "just throw it in ChatGPT":
I ask ChatGPT to analyse TSTT's handling of the Cyber Attack and data breach.
Here is a strategy you can use to vet your marketing campaigns and content before posting.
If you ever feel like your banking statements are off, give them to ChatGPT to analyze all the data for you!
Ask ChatGPT to analyze if your Instagram feed is on brand.
In March 2025, Newsday gave us 10 ChatGPT marketing prompts to try out. The same voices who sold us 'AI, the best employee' introduced us to 'being found by AI', and self-driving cars, the future! In other words, the gatekeepers of the status quo all agree, ‘We are living in the greatest era.' Because of technology, information and progress are at our fingertips. Yet AI’s impact on our brains is a conversation widely ignored locally!
A complete blackout while the ideology flip-flops, and political leaders choose it over the interest of the people as a path to power.
Forged from the order, do as you're told, I guess. We know it's business as usual regardless of how we feel. But on the flip side of this country's brand crisis is an opportunity for small business owners to see how they look when they disregard their values, and ditch the cock n bull stories killing trust in their services.
80% of consumers say the experience a business provides is as important as its products and services.
I was a graphic designer for many years, cool designs aren’t the answer; a brand is. Graphic designers in Trinidad and Tobago don’t find and build the brand from scratch. They build upon what was already created. That means if you lack clarity on what you’re all about, you’ll end up paying for artwork that doesn't work!
Customers complaining about things not working as they should, and businesses' unwillingness to attach their services to an outcome while raising their prices because they're wearing a tangerine T-shirt, is the same disregard we feel, and the entitled attitude we experience when the government frame their actions as progress, we can’t buy something with.
With less prompting and more thinking, your 1-3 man show can send the right message.
Example of brain work:
You’re not scared to make a promise; when you say you’ll do something, you do. You don’t need to be performative to earn trust; you have the right experiences to encourage it, and although it might not feel like it, you already know how to wield that sword.
No Hassle, No Worries, No Cock N Bull Stories life would be hell for your little following if you went out of business tomorrow.
Our "basic fundamental human rights" might be on the auction block of the globalist agenda, but if you’re worried about how you're going to eat when the algorithm, the economy, and AI are against your little business with The One-Page Project™, you don’t need to sell your soul to the devil to survive.
Remember this: Start by taking back the country from the Syrian Mafia
You know how betrayed you felt when what you voted for was infiltrated by the agenda of people with the money to thwart the ideals of the country.
FROM 'THIS I KNOW FOR AI TOLD ME SO' TO 'WHAT I THINK!'
Branding is simple to understand! Do the absurd, don't sell out the trust of those who made your 1-3 man show relevant!
When you provide a service, your branding revolves around your IP: something created by you, which takes the person out of something specific, into something specific, only you can execute because you’ve done it already. This is why real experts don't listen to clients!
Don’t be an echo; demonstrate real conviction, not in someone’s pocket-book or their logo…but in truth because it’s ignored! A client of mine cares about the education of children and expressed how she designed one of the company’s insurance packages because of that, and sees it as part of the bigger purpose for also helping her clients prepare for future loss, minus the run around for their money.
Listen to: Tech CEO's are lying to you
What are you against? How is it a part of what your brand cares about, and is it a part of how your business operates?
Not one local newspaper, talk show, or even a statement from our new Ministry of Public Administration and AI gave MIT's research that people who rely on AI assistants to solve problems experience a noticeable decline in brain activity over time, and developing brains are at higher risk, any attention.
We're either not as connected as they led us to believe, or this is deliberate!
