WHERE AI AMPLIFIES
YOUR GENIUS

AI Salon is where leaders and explorers gather to unlock the potential of generative AI. We’re creating a space to learn, create, and advocate—together.

Our Mission: Practice the Cycle of AI Readiness

Our members are AI leaders as entrepreneurs, and inside their organizations, because they embraced generative AI early and played first, mindfully created, and now they generously lead—learning out loud, supporting others, and becoming go-to voices in a world hungry for AI understanding.

Advocacy and Policy with Daisy Drop-In Advocacy & Policy Chat Beginning February 2, we will be hosting 30-minute drop-in advocacy and policy chats on Google Meet, every other week. These sessions are an open door for AI Salon members who are building, shipping, teaching, or deploying AI and want a clearer read on what’s happening in policy right now and how it connects to your work. This is not a lecture and not a pitch meeting. Think of it as a working conversation space. Use these chats to: Sense-check a policy concern tied to your product or use case Ask how current bills, hearings, or regulatory conversations might affect you Pressure-test an advocacy idea before taking it further Share what you’re seeing on the ground so we can carry real stories into policymaker conversations No prep required.

Latest From
The Community

Since May 2023, I’ve invested more than 4,000 hours learning, experimenting, and applying AI through the AI Salon community. What began as nightly sessions quickly evolved into a professional and personal transformation. The consistency of showing up, collaborating, and applying new ideas in real time has sharpened my skills and completely changed how I think and operate in business. AI Salon has been more than a learning space—it’s been an accelerator for growth, connection, and real-world execution. Its structure, culture of generosity, and commitment to hands-on experimentation have directly influenced the way I serve my clients and lead my company. While the community is the heartbeat of the experience, much of its strength comes from Kyle Shannon’s leadership—his vision, curiosity, and willingness to invite others to learn alongside him set the standard for what collaborative innovation looks like. AI Salon didn’t just expand my knowledge of AI; it expanded what I believed was possible for my career and my life.

“Being part of the AI Salon has truly changed my life for the better. Kyle Shannon and the amazing community he has built have opened doors I never imagined. The weekly meetings, resources, and workshops are filled with real knowledge and genuine support. What makes the AI Salon stand out is the people. Everyone is so open to teaching, sharing, and helping others grow. I have made connections that inspire me daily and remind me that collaboration and generosity of spirit are what drive real progress.”

“In a time where a lot of folks are all about “me”…this group is all about “we.” It’s beautiful. Everyone here reinforces the change I feel, see, and experience daily in the world of AI.”
