This video is from the ‘AI with Kyle News and Updates Live Stream’ First aired: 12November 2025

Summary: Right, so today's stream was a bit different because we're in one of those quiet weeks for AI news. Instead of covering the usual industry drama, I walked through something I've been thinking about quite a bit—how you can actually monetize your AI knowledge by becoming what I'm calling an "AI authority" in your specific niche. The opportunity here is massive because whilst there are loads of generic AI experts floating about, there's virtually no one teaching AI specifically to teachers, social workers, accountants, or people in retail. These spaces are wide open, and if you can position yourself as the go-to person for AI in your industry, you're setting yourself up brilliantly for what's coming.

I broke down the practical steps: post daily talking head videos on TikTok and Instagram about AI in your niche, copy what's already working, and stick with it for six to twelve months. Yes, it's video—I know that's not what people want to hear, but written content just doesn't work anymore. Once you build that audience, the opportunities start rolling in naturally: sponsorships, product sales, workshop gigs at £2,000 per hour, conferences, the works. I also mentioned the Freedom OS thing I'm launching Saturday, which is basically an AI-driven assessment system that helps you work out where you are with AI and what kind of business you should actually start. Not your typical course—it's more like having a coach work through your specific situation and spit out an actual action plan.
