What’s up Rock Nation! Today we’re joined by Jeff Su. He's an ex-Google employee, turned full-time creator and AI educator. Jeff helps solopreneurs and creators turn AI tools into real leverage, not just shortcuts.

In this episode, Jeff shares why AI-native creators will outpace everyone in 2026, how to use AI to replace a 10-person content team, and why good prompts are built on systems, not templates. He also breaks down his repurposing workflow, the red team prompt strategy, and why AI won't replace you, but a smarter creator using AI will.
