Friday is almost here, Alluser! Before you unplug, here are the latest AI insights and updates for marketers. Whether you read them now or save them for later, you won't want to miss these.

In today's edition:

  • 5 Ways to use Claude Cowork

  • A practical three-phase framework to become AI-ready

  • 🗞️ Industry news from Anthropic and OpenAI

Using Claude Cowork

Most AI tools need constant back-and-forth—ask a question, get a reply, repeat. Claude Cowork doesn't work like that. You give it a clear task, and it figures out the steps, gets to work, and delivers results—while you move on to something else.

Need a customer dashboard? It'll build one and write your marketing copy to go with it. Want YouTube strategy ideas? Done. Need to clean up a messy folder full of random files? It reads and renames them for you—no manual digging required.

Rick Mulready show you how to connect Claude to your tools like Notion, Gmail, and Slack through Zapier, so it does real work inside your business, not just inside a chat window. Watch more here.

Don't Get Left Behind 🤖

Two types of marketers are emerging: those leveraging AI to work smarter, and those still grinding harder for less. The gap widens daily—which side will you choose?

"The AI keynotes were the most valuable information I've received at a conference in years. Worth the price of admission!" said Sarah Burt.

At AI Business World World, you'll master: 

🤖 Which AI tools actually move the needle (vs expensive distractions)
🤖 How to maintain authentic brand voice while leveraging AI
🤖 AI workflows that cut content creation time by 70%

"The mindset, openness, and amount of time the experts gave to us was head and shoulders above other conferences," said Noah Stanley.

The AI revolution is here NOW. Join thousands of marketers getting ahead.

Becoming AI Ready: How to Creatively Secure Your Future

Before implementing AI readiness, you need to understand what Kyle calls "aching gaps"—the fears and concerns about your professional future.

An aching gap is the anxiety you feel when you imagine losing your job. It's the fear that keeps you awake at night, wondering if you'll become obsolete. These gaps represent the distance between where you are now and where you need to be to feel secure in an AI-powered world.

The good news is there's a structured approach to closing these gaps. Kyle developed a three-phase cycle called Play First, Create Excellence, and Generously Lead. This framework provides a clear path forward regardless of your current skill level or industry.

The cycle is designed to be iterative—you continuously move through these phases, each time raising your capabilities and securing your position.

Play First to Build Your Foundation

The first phase focuses on exploration and discovery through purposeful experimentation.

A daily AI practice is more than just a habit—it's a centering ritual that helps you clarify what you want and who you want to become.

Kyle recommends starting each day by asking yourself what you want to accomplish and what you want to contribute to the world. This reflection grounds your AI exploration in purpose rather than letting you drift aimlessly through features and capabilities.

The practice should happen consistently at the same time each day. This regularity builds momentum and prevents AI work from getting pushed aside by other priorities.

Play With Purpose

Random experimentation has limited value. Purposeful play means directing your exploration toward specific goals and challenges.

Kyle describes Jim Ross, who works in the self-storage business—not digital storage, but the physical world of cardboard boxes and garage doors. Jim established a daily AI practice using a Pomodoro timer. Every morning over coffee, he sets a one-hour timer and works with AI tools for his business.

One evening, Jim joined Kyle's AI Learning Lab live-stream, where Kyle was teaching how to create songs with Suno, an AI music generation tool. Jim had met with a prospective client just four hours earlier. He knew their name, their business, and what they were trying to accomplish.

While watching the tutorial, Jim had ChatGPT write personalized lyrics incorporating the client's information and goals. He then used Suno to generate a complete song from those lyrics. He sent the song to the client immediately.

Within five minutes, the client responded: "You got the job."

Jim closed the deal by learning across domains and applying a seemingly frivolous skill—AI-generated song creation—to his self-storage business. The client recognized the intention and effort behind such a personalized gesture. To them, it didn't make sense that someone could write a song that fast and that personalized, which made the gesture even more memorable.

Jim continues this daily practice, sometimes working on specific business needs and sometimes just experimenting and playing. He never knows exactly what he'll do during his hour, but consistent practice continuously builds his AI capabilities.

Learn Across Domains

AI readiness requires borrowing insights and approaches from fields outside your expertise.

Traditional career development often meant deep specialization in a single domain. AI readiness flips this model. The most valuable professionals will be those who can connect ideas across different disciplines and apply insights from one field to solve problems in another.

Kyle encourages deliberately exposing yourself to domains you know nothing about. If you're a marketer, study how scientists approach research. If you're a designer, explore how engineers solve problems. Use AI to help you understand these foreign domains and identify transferable principles.

This cross-domain learning makes you adaptable. When your industry shifts—and it will—you'll have mental models and approaches from other fields to draw upon.

Here's a recap of the most important insights, trends, and updates you need to know about today, Alluser! Catch up in minutes and go into the rest of the week prepared.

In today's edition:

  • 30 Instagram carousel ideas

  • How to adjust your strategy for Facebook's new link posting limits

  • 🗞️ Industry news from Instagram, Reddit, and more

Instagram Carousel Post Ideas

What if one Instagram post could double your chances of being seen—without paying for ads?

That's the quiet power of carousels. They're not just swipeable content—they're one of the few post types Instagram will actually reshow to people who skip them the first time. And now that you can add music, they're showing up in more places (hello, Reels feed).

If creating content feels like a lot, these 30 simple carousel ideas from Lucan O'Keefe will make it easier. You'll find quick prompts to share tips, tools, photos, behind-the-scenes moments, and more—things you can pull together fast without overthinking.

These easy, repeatable post ideas will actually get seen. Read more here.

This Conference Pays for Itself

Every year we hear the same thing: "I can't believe I almost didn't come because of the cost."

Here's the truth—Social Media Marketing World pays for itself. Often from just one strategy you implement.

"This was honestly the best conference I've attended in my professional life," said Laura Kaslow.

Think about what one breakthrough could mean for your business. A Facebook ad strategy that cuts costs in half. An AI workflow that saves hours each week. An Instagram approach that doubles your organic reach.

"I have absolutely found what I needed here. Every single session I attended I've been able to take away probably three things, minimum, that I am going to be able to immediately implement," said Jules McGuire.

What Facebook's New Link Rules Mean for Your 2026 Strategy

Meta is currently testing a system that limits professional users and Pages to 2 links per month unless they subscribe to Meta Verified. The subscription costs between $14.99 and $500 per month, depending on the tier.

The restriction applies to links in the actual post body. Users can still share unlimited links in the comments section without any limitations.

Mari describes this move as a revenue play for Meta. She points out that the company has ramped up advertising for Meta Verified across Facebook and Instagram feeds, using case studies and testimonials to promote the service.

These ads include disclaimers noting that results are self-reported and may vary. Mari notes she has yet to encounter anyone who enthusiastically recommends Meta Verified as worthwhile, though she acknowledges this is just her personal observation.

The timing is strategic. Meta is pushing this change while simultaneously promoting its verification service, creating a pain point for users who want to post links with reach, then offering to solve it for a monthly fee.

Mari explains that if you don't pay for Meta Verified, you won't necessarily be blocked from posting links. Instead, you'll probably just get no reach at all. Facebook isn't trying to prevent people from making posts; they're just using reach as the lever.

The restriction applies to personal profiles switched to professional mode and to business Pages. Mari confirms that if you pay for the Meta Verified subscription, you can post as many links as you want and get more reach.

When asked if Meta Verified is worth it for businesses, Mari delivers a mic drop: keep your money and use it on ads instead. She points out that the support is outsourced and not the greatest unless you get lucky.

However, she acknowledges specific scenarios where it might make sense. If you're a creator who gets millions of views on Reels and can include an affiliate link or product link that benefits you, the $50 per month could be valuable. If you have a high-converting landing page and can track that those two allowed links in Reels are driving quality leads and conversions, it might justify the cost.

Otherwise, Mari suggests you could run ads for $50 per month and potentially reach a wider audience.

Alternative Strategies for Driving Traffic

Mari emphasizes that most marketers in the community say they're not going to pay for Meta Verified or limit their links. They're savvy enough to realize the link in comments works just fine.

She recommends several other places to put links. Link in comments works on Pages, profiles, groups, and events. Stories support CTA links, which are always worth testing and experimenting with.

Her number one recommendation is Messenger. Get people into the DMs, because that's what Meta wants with their whole ecosystem on Instagram and Facebook. Use comment triggers and automations to start a dialogue in the DMs, and you can add links there.

Mari mentions that Business AI is currently in beta. Users can check if they have access by going to Meta Business Suite, then All Tools, Engage Audience, and looking for Business AI Beta. This helps handle comments and begin dialogue in the DMs. She notes that, sooner or later, AI in Messenger will serve clients and let you add as many links as you want to inboxes and DMs.

YouTube Expands Auto Dubbing with More Languages and Realism: YouTube has rolled out major updates to its auto dubbing tool, now supporting 27 languages and introducing Expressive Speech in eight key languages to preserve creators' emotional tone. A new Preferred Language setting gives viewers more control, while a Lip Sync pilot aims to make dubbed content feel even more seamless. For creators, Smart Filtering ensures only appropriate content gets dubbed, and the tool poses no risk to video discovery. These updates make it easier than ever to connect global audiences with multilingual content. YouTube
