Free Breakfast: A Conversation on AI
Catch up with our team as we brew coffee with a robotic touch...
Dear Community,
This week’s Free Breakfast broadcast from our Virtual Café flowed just like our fresh-brewed air-roasted coffee; rich, energizing, and full of bold ideas. Check out what’s brewing at BVP Coffee Co.
🌊 Entrepreneurship Feels Like Drinking From a Fire Hose
As B Bass reminded us, entrepreneurship often feels like “drinking out of a water hose”—information flying at you faster than you can absorb. Garry Johnson III built on that point, noting that AI is our filter; a way to channel the flood into actionable insights instead of overwhelm.
🔥 AI Is the New Fire (But Still Needs Us)
We compared AI to fire, the wheel, and the calculator; tools that reshaped human potential. The key? AI isn’t here to replace humans, but to amplify us. It’s only as intelligent as the knowledge we feed it. Without us, it’s a “stupid baby” that knows nothing.
🎶 Lecture vs. Music
B Bass gave a powerful analogy: AI can sometimes feel like a lecture, accurate but flat, while humans bring the rhythm, connection, and emotion, more like music. The future isn’t choosing one over the other, it’s learning how to harmonize.
🤖 Practical Agentic AI in Action
Garry shared how he used agentic AI to automate certificate creation for a university cohort; pulling from spreadsheets, editing designs in Canva, and drafting personalized emails. Meanwhile, B described how AI powers his daily articulation drills and even manages content for his dog George’s Instagram.
This isn’t theory, it’s real work being offloaded today so people can focus on higher-value creativity, strategy, and community building.
🚀 The BVP Coffee Co. Vision
We’re not just roasting coffee, we’re building the world’s first AI-powered coffee franchise. Imagine baristas trained with AI, machines that self-optimize, and a café (virtual and IRL) where every cup comes with a side of knowledge. At BVP Coffee Co., coffee is just the beginning. We’re creating a community that upskills while it sips.
💡 Why This Matters for Entrepreneurs
AI lowers the barrier to entry. With the right tools, a solo founder can operate like a 10-person team. That means more people—especially from underrepresented backgrounds—can finally play on a level field. As Garry put it, “AI lets you outsmart and outpace your competition—but you’ve got to stay on top of it, and you’ve got to be ethical.”
