The big idea
Big companies have always had advantages — money, people, fancy tech. AI is changing that. A small bakery can now use AI tools that used to cost thousands.
Some examples
- A small bakery uses AI to write social media posts.
- A local toy store uses AI to predict which toys will sell next month.
- A neighborhood coffee shop uses AI for customer service questions.
- A small farm uses AI to know when to water and pick crops.
Try it!
If you know someone who runs a small business, ask: 'Do you use AI? How?' Their answer might surprise you. AI is everywhere.
