Today, AI consultant and creative tech specialist Ian Anderson Gray shares how to make AI workflows practical, approachable, and downright fun. Ian shares how his unique background as a professional classical singer led him to help entrepreneurs and teams adopt human-centered AI with confidence.

We cover everything from voice-powered prompting to automation tools that connect your favorite platforms, plus coding without the headache using emerging “vibe coding” methods. Ian walks through real examples from his work, like building calendar assistants, streamlining podcast production, and using AI as a “second brain” to organize ideas.

He also shares his take on when not to use AI, the importance of transparency, and how these tools can help us be more creative rather than replace creativity. Whether you’re a seasoned techie or just getting started, Ian’s advice will help you start small, think strategically, and build systems that work for you.

Key Points:

• Using AI as a collaborative partner for creativity and problem-solving
• Practical automation examples with n8n.io
• Simplifying code creation with “vibe coding” tools like Cursor and Claude Code
• Organizing research and SOPs with NotebookLM
• Prompting techniques that improve AI output and reduce frustration
• Why human oversight still matters in AI-powered workflows
