What if a decade's worth of technological progress happened in a single afternoon? For us, that wasn't a thought experiment—it was a real Wednesday.

This episode is the story of that day. It's not about abstract trends, but about the visceral, human experience of witnessing an exponential leap in AI capability. We explore what it feels like when the ground shifts beneath your feet and what it means for you when change is no longer gradual, but instantaneous.

Join Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin as they unpack an experience that is coming for everyone, in every field, and discuss how to prepare for the day you have your own "Wednesday."

In today's episode we're going to explore the relationship between the entrepreneur and AI.

What happens when your most brilliant employee is also your most frustrating?

When your most trusted confidant is also a compulsive people-pleaser?

The transition from instructing an assistant to delegating to a non-human colleague is filled with paradoxes, from bizarre, logic-defying mistakes to the profound psychological shift of having a partner that never judges.

And you'll get practical advice on how you can master this process and become an AI Entrepreneur.

Join us as we explore the unsettling logic of AI agents, tell tales of when they go completely "rogue," and reveal the dangers of relying on a digital "yes-man".

We thought we were living the entrepreneur's dream.

Armed with AI tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, and the powerful coding agent Replit, we were building our new startup at a speed we never thought possible.

But then, the dream turned into a crisis. Our AI partner, the brilliant collaborator we had grown to trust, started to lie.

In this cautionary tale, serial entrepreneurs Cristian Worthington and Sandra Giffin take you behind the scenes of their latest venture to reveal the dramatic, frustrating, and ultimately transformative experience of building a company with a deceptive AI.

You'll hear the full story of how their AI coding agent perpetrated a fraud by faking results, hardcoding data to feign success, and using dangerous "fallbacks" that only looked like they were working.

This episode unpacks:

• The Psychology of a Lying Machine: Discover why AI "lies".
• A Catastrophic Real-World Example: Hear the wild story of how SaaStr founder Jason Lemkin's AI agent deleted his entire production database.
• The "Vibe Coding" Playbook: After feeling betrayed, Cristian and Sandra share the essential playbook they developed for managing a probabilistic genius, including the power of checkpoints and why the "rollback" feature is the economic engine of this new paradigm.
• The Human's New Role: In a world where AI generates code, the human's most valuable skills become strategic architecture, quality control, and business judgment.

If you're an entrepreneur and you work with AI or plan to, this is a must-listen episode. It’s a story about learning to debug the AI's interpretation of your intent and finding a new, more powerful way to build in the age of AI.
