Ever wished you could clone yourself to get more done? Julian Goldie actually did it — and built a content empire out of it. In this episode of A Beginner’s Guide to AI, host Dietmar Fischer talks with Julian about how he uses AI to create five videos a day, automate workflows, and still keep a personal, human touch that builds real trust with his audience.
Julian reveals how he turned his initial fear of AI into a full-scale growth engine for his business, transforming his SEO agency into a modern AI-powered content studio. He shares the systems, tools, and mindset that helped him automate marketing, scale his team, and reach millions — all while avoiding the “AI slop” that floods the internet.
