		<description>AI arrived whether you asked for it or not.

AI For Luddites is a plain-English podcast for the skeptical, the resistant, and the merely exhausted — no hype, no jargon, and no promises that everything is about to change forever.

Each episode puts one piece of artificial intelligence on the workbench and takes it apart: what it actually does, what it actually costs, and whether it has earned a place in your work. Hosts Cody, Gonzalo, Jesus, and John Wee work in marketing and enterprise technology — the part of the industry where AI has to survive contact with a real budget, a real team, and a Monday morning.

Made for business owners, operators, marketers, and the reluctantly curious. If you have ever suspected that the loudest voices about AI are the ones selling it, you are the audience.

The original Luddites were not fools who feared machines. They were skilled craftspeople who asked who the machines were really for. Good question. Still is.

Cody breaks down a day that burned 950 million tokens on Fable 5.1 and why the return on that API bill was still enormous.
