The reality is that with AI, anyone can find information, so I'm wondering what the decisive benefit would be that would convince people to pay for a subscription (private chats with the community, monthly webinars, specialised premium articles based on personal experiences, e.g. case studies???). If you happen to support ... ... view is that you need to have that experience (aka expose yourself to those situations).
