RIVERSIDE, Calif. - nvtip -- The headlines are filled with warnings of a jobless future where humans will feel they have no purpose in life. Don't count author and serial entrepreneur, Randy Kirk, among that crowd.

"We are headed into an age of abundance that will make the last 100 years seem like small ball, by comparison," says Kirk. "Energy will be too cheap to meter, education will be nearly free. Even groceries will be a significantly lower percent of your budget."

That is the premise of Kirk's new book, AI Rising: How to Thrive in the Age of Abundance. The book, his 5th in 10 years, and already topping several categories as a #1 Best Seller on Amazon, grew out of his new profession as a YouTube Influencer.

"I wasn't planning another complete career change, but after writing my second book about Elon Musk and Tesla, I need to create more promotions to up the sales. I decided to put up a YouTube video and see if that helped.You see, for the previous 17 years I had a career as a marketing consultant, helping 400 businesses over those years. I had done 4000 videos for those clients."

Turns out, that first video did very well, and now there are 3000 videos with 90 videos being churned out every month, 32,000 Subscribers and 15 million views. While the channel focuses on the incredible accomplishments of Elon Musk, Tesla, and Tesla stock, artificial intelligence has become a larger and larger part of the story.

Tesla is the acknowledged leader in embodied AI such as autonomous cars and humanoid robots, and one of Musk's other companies, Xai is among the seven hyperscalers spending 100's of billions of dollars to build out massive data centers.
