Building Trust in the Age of AI Content featured Michael Dreger, Founder and CEO of Maidin, in a Tech & Tequila conversation about using content to build genuine professional relationships, authority, and business opportunities in an increasingly AI-driven environment.

Michael explored why simply publishing more content does not necessarily create meaningful connections, and shared a framework for turning real-world experiences, lessons, and operator insights into content that reflects an individual’s voice and builds trust over time.

Key topics covered:

• Moving beyond generic, AI-generated content toward authentic professional communication.

• The “Work as Content” approach to turning everyday experiences into meaningful content.

• How consistent, experience-driven content can build trust and create opportunities for capital, talent, and partnerships.

• Practical ways to build a stronger professional presence on LinkedIn without losing authenticity.
