In this episode of the Creator’s MBA podcast, I’m demystifying what an AI clone actually is—and how it’s very different from a chatbot or a custom GPT. There’s a lot of hype out there right now, and while those tools have their place, an AI clone serves a completely different function in your business.
We’ll walk through how clones are built to apply your unique way of thinking—not just spit out generic answers. I share how they can support your clients when you’re not in the room, and why they only work when your frameworks are already clear and stable. If you’ve been wondering whether a clone could help reduce bottlenecks or improve implementation in your programs, this episode is a must-listen.

I also share a real-life example of how AI clones can support implementation in online courses without replacing your presence.
