About
I'm Abe. I move first.
I run a few businesses, and I run them on AI.
I finished my master's at NYU Stern while working, and I was selected as the commencement speaker. A moment from that speech with Jalen Brunson went viral, and ESPN picked it up. That's where I picked up the basics of AI, and then I went all the way down the rabbit hole. I've been paying for AI since early 2024, back when ChatGPT ran on GPT-4 and didn't even have project folders yet. I started using Claude in early 2025 and haven't stopped testing since.
Today I spend over $5,000 a year on AI tools and APIs. I buy the newest thing, put it to work in my own businesses, and keep only what actually saves time. That way, you get the setups that work without paying for the ones that don't.

Where I test it
I use AI across a few businesses.
Some I share about, some I don't. Here are the ones I do.
Investing
Alpha Venture Capital
I invest in early-stage companies. AI handles the research, memos and admin.
Nonprofit
Kind Steward
A 501(c)(3) that gives direct help in Ethiopia, Kenya and the U.S. Every dollar, measured in people helped.
Real estate
The Florida flip
Bought over spring break. AI ran the numbers, the scope and the contractor follow-ups.
Land
Texas land
Bought during finals week. Same playbook: research, paperwork and tracking on AI.

Why I'm teaching this
For a while I was the friend people texted about AI. "Which one should I pay for?" "Can it do my invoices?" "How do I even start?" I kept answering the same questions one text at a time, so I started answering them out loud instead.
I teach my friends the way a friend would: no jargon and no hype. I won't set it up for you, because I want you to own it.
I'm a delusional optimist. I think anyone who runs something can do this. My students are about to prove it.
Build it. Grow it. Protect it.
