Built for the Hobby #6: AI for Hobby Operators
AI is moving fast. Most hobby businesses are not.
In Episode 6 of Built for the Hobby, Brett sits down with Scott Lock, CEO and Co-Founder of InfernoRed
Technology, to talk about what AI means for hobby operators in 2026.
This is not hype.
This is practical.
Scott breaks down:
- Why most businesses are underusing AI
- Where small hobby shops can remove friction today
- How automation can protect your margins
- Why waiting is the riskiest strategy
- How to think about AI without chasing shiny objects
If you run a $500K shop or a $5M operation, this conversation is about you.
AI will not replace your business.
But someone who learns how to use it might.
If you are AI-curious but stuck using ChatGPT like Google, this episode gives you a clear next step.
Built for the Hobby is about one thing: helping operators think better and build smarter.
