LET'S GET STARTED (and no, that intro was not a chat bot, I'm just _ like that)

Hello, LiveBuildAI community! Welcome to your daily dose of AI trends, tools, tips, and resources. I’m here to break down the latest in artificial intelligence in a way that’s simple, practical, and—dare I say—fun. My mission? To make AI so approachable that even my grandma could use it.

Today, we’ve got the top articles, tools for living and building, industry trends, influencers to watch, and a peek at where the money’s moving. Here’s what’s live on February 28, 2025.

P.S.,: Shout out to Greg Isenberg and the Startup Ideas podcast. Mentioning him because he was wondering how people get driven into SEO for AI and, unfortunately, you didn't make the influencers list. But I love your stuff and watch it all the time. Also shout out to GPT 4.5 being released. As you can tell, I used Grok for the aggregation and it was fresh off the hatorade.
