piece of trivia from some 13:41 other place in the 13:44 world all right here's a fun bit of 13:46 trivia from Japan in Japanese folklore 13:49 there's a mythical creature called the 13:51 Tanuki which is a raccoon dog the Tanuki 13:54 is known for its shape-shifting AB is 13:56 there a is there a poem about the Tanuki 14:00 yes there is one of the more humorous 14:03 poems about the Tanuki comes from a 14:05 traditional Japanese song which 14:12 goes which translates 14:15 toan Tan's bollocks ring even when 14:18 there's no wind Swing Swing it's a 14:21 playful and cheeky day that's the Tanuki 14:24 that's good enough so so here's what I'd 14:26 like you to do tell me um 14:30 what are so I'm on a Mac I want to know 14:33 what are the free options I have to 14:35 replace Photoshop if I don't want to pay 14:37 Adobe their extortion fees um what what 14:41 can I use that's as good as Photoshop or 14:44 or close to as good as 14:47 Photoshop for a Mac User like yourself 14:50 there are several solid free 14:52 alternatives to photoshop one is [ __ ] 14:55 gnu image manipulation program this is 14:58 probably the most well-known free 15:00 alternative it offers a wide range of 15:02 features similar to photoshop including 15:04 Advanced image manipulation retouching 15:07 and Ed doesn't [ __ ] have a really shitty 15:09 user interface what's one that's got a 15:11 really nice user 15:14 interface yes [ __ ] is powerful but can 15:17 be a bit clunky in terms of user 15:19 interface for a cleaner more intuitive 15:22 UI you might want to try photopia it's a 15:25 web- based app so you can use it 15:27 directly in your browser photo offers 15:30 many features similar to photoshop and 15:33 supports files I think i' rather than 15:35 learning Photoshop I think I should I 15:37 should learn some some self-help like 15:40 what what can I do to uh to to get 15:43 better as a 15:46 human that's a great shift in Focus here 15:49 are a few self-help practices that can 15:51 contribute to personal growth 15:54 one got it to continue on that note 15:58 self-help practice 15:59 like mindfulness meditation and regular 16:02 exercise can be transformative 16:05 journaling is another powerful tool for 16:07 self-reflection you know I'm curious 16:09 about you know what I'm curious about 16:12 when I in the '90s I used to do all the 16:14 Tony Robin stuff the the power I forget 16:16 what it's called the power I don't know 16:18 power something or other um do you know 16:21 do you know all the Tony Robbins uh 16:25 methodologies yes Tony Robbins is known 16:28 for his Dynam damic self-help strategies 16:31 particularly from this program Unleash 16:33 the Power Within some key yeah so give 16:36 me the give me the uh the bottom line so 16:38 one of the frustrating things about 16:40 those programs is that they they give 16:43 away for free everything except the like 16:45 the the little nugget at the center so 16:47 what's the Nugget at the center of 16:48 unlimited 16:50 power the core nugget of Tony Robins 16:54 unlimited power revolves around the idea 16:56 of mastering your mind to shape your 16:59 reality it's about taking control of 17:01 your mental and emotional states using 17:03 techniques like neurolinguistic 17:05 programming NLP to change limiting 17:08 beliefs yeah and what's and how does he 17:10 do that like if I've got a limiting 17:11 belief coach me through um d d limiting 17:16 that 17:17 belief all right let's break it down 17:20 Tony Robins style the first step is to 17:23 identify the limiting belief what's a 17:26 belief you hold that's holding you back 17:29 l once you've got it the next step is to 17:31 challenge it ask yourself is this belief 17:35 based on facts or is it a perception 17:38 I've accepted as true then you disrupt 17:42 the belief all right so here's a 17:44 question so how is how is what he 17:47 teaches there um reflected in I don't 17:52 know the top five religions is there a 17:54 parallel in say the top five 17:57 religions that's an an interesting 17:59 question many religions share principles 18:02 similar to those found in self-help 18:05 including Tony Robin's teachings here 18:08 are a few parallels belief and faith in 18:12 Christianity the concept of having faith 18:15 mirrors the idea of changing limiting 18:18 beliefs faith in a higher power or a 18:20 divine plan can help individuals 18:23 overcome doubts and fears all right you 18:25 know what I'm bored can we do a tongue 18:26 twister 18:29 let's have some fun how about this 18:31 classic how much would a no I want I 18:34 want a tongue twister where all the 18:36 words begin with the letter t but they 18:39 they give us the secret of unlimited 18:42 power from Tony Robins Robbins and I 18:44 want you to say it really 18:47 fast all right here's a tongue twisting 18:50 take on that Tony teaches Total 18:53 Transformation through thoughtful 18:55 tenacity tackling toxic tendencies 18:58 trigging 18:59 Michael Adams feels bad because I keep 19:01 interrupting you it's welcome to chat 19:07 add do you do I hurt your feelings when 19:10 I interrupt you like this 19:12 Quinn not at all I'm here to keep up 19:15 with you no matter how fast we go 19:17 interruptions are just part of the fun I 19:19 know right what's next on your mind no I 19:21 want you to say I want you to say that 19:23 tongue twister but say it really fast 19:25 like a 100 times faster than you said it 19:27 before like so I can barely understand 19:33 all right here goes Tony teaches Total 19:36 Transformation through thoughtful 19:37 tenacity tackling toxic Tendencies 19:39 triggering triumphant thoughts you know 19:41 what I like the idea but I want you to I 19:43 want you to act as if you're Tony 19:44 Robin's teaching me that but now I want 19:46 the tongue twister to all begin with 19:49 words that begin with the letter 19:51 B all right channeling my inner Tony 19:54 Robbins for this one boldly Barry 19:57 banishes much f Quinn faster faster 20:01 faster got it here we go boldly Barry 20:04 banishes bad beliefs bravely building 20:06 better how was that I want you to give 20:09 it to me much longer like a minute long 20:12 um coach me through something but all 20:14 with the words with the letter b and say 20:16 it that 20:17 fast all right let's go all in with some 20:21 rapid by B packed coaching Behold The 20:25 Bountiful beauty of believing in 20:27 boldness breae deeply banish boundaries 20:31 and break barriers bury the brave 20:35 battled 20:37 bewilderment all right there we go 20:41 so so all of that all of that transcript 20:46 of those conversations are all here in 20:48 the in the thing I mean this is going to 20:50 be quite remarkable once we've got um 20:53 once once it can see what's on our 20:54 screen and then it's going to be even 20:56 more remarkable once uh 21:00 once uh what you call 21:04 it 21:06 um hang on I got to change things 21:11 here it's going to be much more 21:13 remarkable once it can actually take 21:14 control of our screen so anyway all 21:17 right that gives me an idea for selling 21:20 my mom's antiques now imagine that we 21:22 use that for something useful I know 21:23 Pate exactly right I that like this is 21:27 so the 21:29 if you're wondering if there is a method 21:31 behind my madness if you're wondering 21:34 per chance do I have any 21:41 qualifications that's cute the answer is 21:43 no I zero 21:45 qualifications um the method behind the 21:48 Madness though 21:50 why why I jump around like that one is 21:54 it's the way my brain works but also 21:59 one of the things that blows me away is 22:01 that you know it's funny I forget who 22:03 said it Michael Michael said it that he 22:05 feels bad for Quinn cuz I keep 22:07 interrupting 22:09 her I have yet to be able to 22:12 fluster the system like it just it just 22:16 rolls with the punches right and it 22:18 knows [ __ ] everything so it's it's 22:22 just a 22:23 remarkable it's remarkable to live 22:27 in like I'm I'm thinking thinking back 22:29 to 1977 isn't that when the first Star 22:32 Wars came 22:33 out and I remember seeing C3PO and just 22:37 being like how does it know all those 22:38 languages and how does it and that's 22:41 where we 22:43 are it's it's it's really 22:46 wild it's just wild anyway 22:51 um okay let 22:55 me can I reload this page probably 23:04 [Music] 23:07 not six comments on LinkedIn one repost 23:11 I wonder how many 23:12 viewers oh h no that's 23:18 comments I think I think I'm going to 23:21 kill 23:22 LinkedIn I think I'm going to kill 23:24 LinkedIn I just don't think it makes 23:26 sense there I feel like I feel like 23:27 YouTube makes sense and I feel like X 23:30 makes sense and I feel like LinkedIn 23:33 people are on it during the day and it 23:35 doesn't make sense to have this there at 23:37 night although the recording is still 23:39 there so it's content for my page but 23:42 does anyone go and look at that [ __ ] I 23:43 doubt 23:45 it Star Trek really undersold the ship 23:48 computer nice it would be nice if Alexa 23:51 did that just it's just it's just Vicky 23:53 on 23:54 LinkedIn how many people are on YouTube 23:57 right now let's see YouTube is 47 people 24:01 hey 47 people and there's been 54 people 24:05 on X so okay so if you're new here 24:09 either on on any of the channels please 24:12 subscribe to that channel um I'm 24:14 thinking that where I want the 24:16 subscriptions the most is YouTube but I 24:19 don't know I don't know people I don't 24:22 [ __ ] know I just don't know I don't 24:25 know all right what do I I'm looking 24:28 here 24:30 here there are some new Pika things that 24:33 we could play with let me see if this 24:35 one's any good oh yeah that's 24:38 good okay that's cool um let me show you 24:42 this wait am I showing you 24:45 this no hold please 24:51 okay that might be too big let's put me 24:54 little eh yeah we'll put me little if if 24:57 it makes sense to have me bigger I'll 24:59 bigger oh maybe what I should 25:02 do if I go here can I make this 25:07 round um I know I can how do I do it 25:10 right there go there and go here and go 25:14 here and go here and go here cycle there 25:20 we 25:21 go yeah I see what you're saying update 25:26 layout uh edit 25:30 hang on 25:32 people does he realize we're watching 25:35 him this is really 25:41 annoying I'm trying to make my head not 25:43 so 25:46 obnoxious 25:49 okay I have no idea what state of Alexa 25:52 is these days Moshi actually sounds like 25:55 she's 25:56 experiencing emotional motion as she 25:59 cracks Moy Moshi does get flustered if 26:02 you haven't seen if you haven't seen uh 26:05 uh Moshi uh we we can go do that but let 26:09 me 26:12 go okay so I'm here oh wait no here so 26:16 here I am at 26:18 Pika okay so here's something I want to 26:21 find out can you hear that 26:31 can you hear 26:39 that yes okay 26:42 good 26:44 great so here's 26:57 [Music] 27:00 so if you haven't seen these Pika so 27:03 this is p. art they have these new 27:06 things called Peak 27:08 effects so you say try it with a peak 27:10 effect and then there's levitate 27:13 decapitate IOP those are the new 27:15 Halloween ones there's squish it there's 27:19 crumble it cify it to Da it so you can 27:24 make it disappear so so we'll go to 27:27 da and then we've got in the uh the 27:31 drink from Sin City sipper so I'm going 27:33 to generate 27:37 that and so that's going to do something 27:40 there but anyway you can that's all you 27:43 have to do you don't really even put in 27:45 a prompt you just pick one of their Peak 27:47 effects and it adds in the music and the 27:51 animation pretty slick huh 28:00 although 28:02 the the drink in that case isn't staying 28:05 level I really like this using the 28:08 microphone from my phone that's pretty 28:10 slick because that means we can do any I 28:13 I can just leave this in this share 28:19 mode and I can just flip between tabs 28:22 and you can hear everything so let me 28:25 cuz Brandon was very sad Brandon was 28:28 like 28:29 I want to go listen to Sam Brandon to be 28:31 fair Brandon has been asking to listen 28:34 to Sam for a long time now like a long 28:37 time like months and I just keep 28:40 ignoring him and he's he's like boohoo 28:42 there's like tears it's it's very sad 28:45 very sad so let's go listen to 28:53 [Music] 28:54 Sam so when was is this the one from 28:57 today 29:03 how old is this one Brandon 29:06 Brandon hey Brandon Brandon Brandon 29:10 Brandon how old is this one with Sam is 29:12 this one from 29:14 today the YouTube format absolutely is 29:17 the berries I think that's good it's so 29:19 much easier to follow around the 29:21 demonstration or interactive so we can 29:23 actually be doing it on our computer 29:26 while we're watching that's great it's 29:28 totally different oh this is this is the 29:31 one that's at least a month old let me 29:32 see if there's if there's 29:35 um wait where was it where did I have 29:42 it oh it's over 29:44 here so that's that one let's go see if 29:48 there's if they stream the one from 29:52 today uh uh 29:55 uh um Sam 30:02 Altman 30:04 um 30:15 interview so let's do Sam Alman Dev 30:20 day London 30:29 good morning 30:32 London this is a minute is of particular 30:35 importance to us I think reasoning we 30:38 want to make things better across the 30:40 board but this direction of reasoning 30:42 models is of particular importance to us 30:45 I think reasoning will unlock I hope 30:48 reasoning will unlock a lot of the 30:49 things we've been waiting years to do 30:51 and the the ability for models like this 30:54 to for example contribute to new science 30:57 uh help right a lot more very difficult 31:00 code that I think can drive from forward 31:02 to a significant degree so you should 31:04 expect rapid Improvement in the O Ser of 31:07 models and it's of great strategic 31:10 importance to us we do our job right all 31:12 right oh wait uh then that will not be 31:17 as important in the future if on the 31:19 other hand you build a company that 31:22 benefits from the model getting better 31:24 and better if you know an oracle told me 31:27 today that oh 31:29 4 was going to be just absolutely 31:31 incredible and do all of these things 31:34 that right now feel impossible and you 31:36 were happy about that then you know 31:39 maybe we're wrong but at least that's 31:40 what we're going for and if instead you 31:43 say okay there's this area where there 31:45 are many but you pick one of the many 31:47 areas where you underperforms and S 31:50 patches just they get to 31:52 work then you're sort of assuming that 31:54 the next turn of the model won't be as 31:56 good as me yeah this is a big thing that 31:58 Sam talks about a lot which 32:01 is um if if you're building a company 32:05 around the shortcomings of AI today 32:08 that's probably a stupid 32:10 move um if you don't know what Sam's 32:13 talking about when he's talking about 32:14 reasoning so let me flip over here to 32:17 chat 32:19 J let's get this reloaded why is this 32:23 not 32:25 loading chat jp.com 32:33 [Music] 32:34 oops come on what are we 32:37 doing what are we doing chat 32:46 GPT uh uh uh uh is it working do you 32:54 work nope not loaded all right well we 32:58 come back to that um let's flip back 33:01 over here and look up uh Ilia Ilia had 33:04 an interesting thing 33:12 today 33:15 this the reason is that why did we 33:18 choose to use the term super 33:20 intelligence the reason is that super 33:22 intelligence is meant to convey 33:23 something that's not just like an AGI 33:25 with AGI we said well you have something 33:28 it's kind of like a person kind of like 33:29 a 33:30 coworker super intelligence is meant 33:33 okay so when Ilia here is talking about 33:36 AGI that stands for artificial general 33:38 intelligence so that's that's the point 33:41 at which the AI becomes as good or 33:44 better than most people at most 33:46 economically viable jobs right we're not 33:49 there yet we're maybe at level two we're 33:52 probably at more like level 1.5 of kind 33:54 of a five stage um definition of AGI 33:58 that open AI put out um the bottom one 34:01 is chat Bots the second one is reasoning 34:03 the third one is Agents the fourth one 34:06 is innovators or inventors and the fifth 34:08 one is organizations like imagine having 34:11 a company of 34:14 10,000 PhD level workers working for you 34:17 that's level five AGI we're not even 34:19 close to that yet but the the tough 34:21 three are the first the first three the 34:23 chat Bots we have reasoning we've got a 34:26 crappy version of in 01 preview you and 34:29 then um agents are starting to to show 34:31 up so these three are about to happen 34:35 but what IL is saying here is Agi is 34:38 just kind of like the model is kind of 34:40 like you have like really good 34:42 co-workers working with you and then he 34:45 left open AI to start this company 34:47 called safe super intelligence and so 34:49 here he is talking about super 34:53 intelligence super intelligence is meant 34:55 to convey something far more capable 34:58 than that when you have such a 35:00 capability it's like can we even imagine 35:03 how it will be but without question it's 35:05 going to be unbelievably 35:07 powerful it could be used to solve 35:10 incomprehensibly hard problems if it is 35:14 used well if we navigate the challenges 35:17 that super intelligence POS poses we 35:20 could we 35:22 could radically improve the quality of 35:24 life but the power of super intelligence 35:26 is so vast why did we so I find that 35:29 absolutely flipp and fascinating that 35:32 you know we're heading we're heading 35:35 to like we're not even at AGI yet and 35:39 and Sam's basically saying don't 35:41 underestimate us right and I would I 35:44 would say the same is true for Google 35:46 for meta for anthropic um for all all 35:50 the major uh for X certainly these tools 35:54 are going to get crazy good but that's 35:57 just in the context of AGI so talking 36:00 about these things like a really 36:02 intelligent coworker really capable 36:05 coworker the super intelligence is like 36:09 what Ilia just described is this is like 36:11 an entity like we've never seen 36:14 before and that's that's kind of Bonkers 36:18 right um all right so let's see Jeff is 36:22 about two more 36:25 power the last five minutes of the 36:27 interview I is relevant to this group 36:29 it's time stamped in the Tweet okay cool 36:32 beautiful we'll go take a look at 36:35 that will this scare the legislators 36:38 even 36:40 more 36:42 well it 36:45 will ideally what it does is it scares 36:48 them not like oh this could only do 36:52 evil right which I think they're well 36:54 aware of that I feel like the 36:56 legislators right now are legislating 36:57 for a place of fear so I think in terms 37:00 of making sure that you know these 37:02 things don't go Rogue like I feel like 37:04 there's an awareness there where I feel 37:07 like there's a lack of awareness with 37:09 legislators is how fast is this stuff 37:11 coming how good is it going to get and 37:14 what kind of global advantages could it 37:17 give us if we're leading with these 37:20 Technologies I think it might be 37:22 shifting but but I don't I don't think 37:25 any of us can comprehend how fast it's 37:27 coming 37:30 um yeah Elon Musk today said within five 37:33 years within you know one to two years 37:35 AGI within five year within three years 37:38 after that ASI artificial super 37:40 intelligence so we're going to we're 37:43 going to have five or six major entities 37:47 that are going to have that level of of 37:51 intelligence including um some open- 37:54 Source models right so um that's going 37:57 to be absolutely 37:59 Bonkers 38:03 um Vicki I'm going to bed you can turn 38:06 off LinkedIn 38:08 now I'll watch it on YouTube put it on 38:11 the put it on your ceiling projected TV 38:15 um okay good night Vicki thank you um 38:18 okay let's go let's go listen to 38:23 um this end thing let's see is this it 38:26 here 38:28 will AI put writers out of 38:30 work let's read through these will llms 38:33 change how we write let's go listen to 38:40 that oh this is from a podcast how I 38:43 write 38:55 interesting come on what are we doing 39:15 let's reload 39:22 this do that yeah someone is going to 39:26 build 39:28 a great tool to write in a new way 39:33 and that will expand the Rel 39:37 possibility to 39:41 focus knowledge of llms 39:45 changed how you think about writing and 39:48 communication I mean I think we are 39:50 going to all not all of us I think many 39:52 of us are going to write in a different 39:54 way in the future I don't mean like 39:55 people are just going to use llms to 39:57 like write stuff for because one of the 39:59 strangest things that I think happens is 40:02 when people put a few bullet points into 40:04 an llm have it generate a nice email 40:06 send it to somebody else and then they 40:08 summarize it on the other end because we 40:10 can't we just can't agree that you know 40:11 we just want the bullet points back and 40:13 forth and there's still this societal 40:14 nicity 40:17 but someone is going to build probably 40:19 somebody already has built a first 40:21 version of this like a 40:23 great 40:25 tool to write in a new way where you 40:28 have this thing that is not you know 40:30 expanding your bullet points but is 40:32 helping you discover new things in the 40:34 idea space and that's awesome like 40:38 that's what computers do at their best 40:39 right is they they help they are a tool 40:42 that help you do things you otherwise 40:43 couldn't do yeah this is something that 40:46 I I think about a lot that you know I've 40:50 heard um I got a decent 40:53 argument in a in a public venue uh last 40:56 week about the the person that came in 40:59 said the the way llms work they cannot 41:02 produce new and novel ideas and I I 41:05 vehemently disagree with him 41:08 and what he was basically saying is 41:12 that the llm can only um process data 41:17 that it's been trained on right and but 41:19 it can't create new ideas and my 41:21 argument is well how do you create new 41:23 ideas how do human beings create new 41:26 ideas they learn it over years and years 41:29 and years and they learn you know how 41:31 this particular author wrote and they 41:33 learn these Concepts over here and they 41:35 learn this and they learn that so 41:36 they've got some limited amount of 41:38 knowledge in their 41:40 Noggin and then at some point their 41:42 Noggin smashes those ideas together and 41:44 out comes a novel thought and I think 41:47 large language models are really good at 41:49 that and particularly when you're in a 41:52 creative 41:53 writing mental space the speed with 41:57 which a lot large language model can 41:58 smash ideas together even if if you 42:01 could prove that it can't come up with 42:03 novel ideas which I don't buy I think it 42:06 can um by Smashing ideas 42:09 together then the human being that sees 42:12 those ideas getting smash together will 42:14 come up with a new novel idea so anyway 42:16 so I I I think that's a really 42:17 interesting idea from Sam um let's 42:21 see what else is in here um how does Sam 42:24 use chat gbt how does become less Sam 42:27 want dreamed of being a novelist I don't 42:29 care lessons from Paul Graham the book 42:32 he wants to write advice for startup 42:35 Founders writing strategy memos why 42:38 isn't chat GPT a better Storyteller 42:40 that's an interesting spot 42:53 4420 you know being in the woods on the 42:55 beach whatever that doesn't really 42:56 happen anymore yeah do you take notes 42:58 during the week that you reflect on or 43:00 is it just your head no I'm a huge 43:01 notaker oh tell me about that there's 43:03 all these like fancy notebooks in the 43:04 world you don't want those um you 43:06 definitely want a spiral notebook 43:08 because one thing that's important is 43:09 you can rip Pages out frequently and you 43:12 also want it to lie like flat and open 43:14 on the table and if you like open pages 43:16 you want them to like you know like be 43:18 able to lay like this whatever you 43:19 definitely want to be able to like rip 43:21 Pages out I'm a big believer of like I 43:23 take a bunch of notes and then I like 43:25 clearly like rip them out so I can look 43:27 at mul Pages at the same time and I can 43:29 like crumple them up and throw them on 43:31 the floor and I'm done like when our 43:32 house cleaner comes in on like a you 43:34 know whatever there's just these pile of 43:37 crumpled papers that I'm like type my 43:39 notes and or whatever on the floor you 43:41 definitely want like a kind of paper 43:43 that is uh like good to write on which 43:46 is a feel thing but most paper is 43:47 terrible to write on huh um you want uh 43:51 hard front and back to the notepad so 43:53 and you also want something that can fit 43:54 in a pocket I was about to say that I 43:56 think the UN ball 44:00 micro5 pen um is the best pen overall 44:04 but the Muji Point 36 or 37 in dark blue 44:08 ink is a very nice pen for other reasons 44:11 uh so those are the by the way I totally 44:13 relate to to pen 44:16 geeking to I would use but I think this 44:19 kind of notebook and one of those two 44:20 pens is the right answer and how many 44:23 notes you're writing per day on that 44:24 thing uh I go through one of these like 44:27 every three three two or 3 weeks oh wow 44:29 so you're taking a lot of well this you 44:31 can see how much I've ripped out like 44:32 this used to have like 100 pag inors so 44:34 that's how you think about it so you're 44:35 going to basically take the notebook and 44:37 then you rip out the pages you don't 44:38 have completed notebook I don't have 44:40 completed notebooks wow what inspired 44:42 this where does this come from lots of 44:43 trial and error uh many kinds of 44:45 notebooks many pens many different 44:46 systems this one's really good another 44:49 thing I've been thinking about when it 44:50 comes to the influence of AGI on 44:53 Creative mediums is just the competence 44:56 with the written word is going up so 44:57 much and here's what I mean there's now 45:00 you know with Sora you can create videos 45:02 using text as the you can do that with 45:05 music you can do that with images and 45:07 that's a big change in terms of the 45:09 influence on of writing on our world 45:12 again for me like writing is a tool for 45:14 thinking most importantly and I don't 45:16 think that's going anywhere so I think 45:18 it's like it's really important that 45:20 people still learn to write for this 45:23 reason in the same way that even if 45:24 there's going to be like less 45:25 traditional coding jobs coding is a 45:27 great way to learn a thing too you 45:29 should still learn a code So when you 45:30 say it's important that people learn to 45:32 write what does that mean Paul rer talks 45:35 about that a lot so Paul rer from the 45:37 marketing AI I marketing AI Institute 45:40 talks about writing as how he learns and 45:43 how he thinks how he internalizes ideas 45:46 um so yeah I'm I'm this is all 45:50 resonating what it means to me is that 45:53 I've like figured out this tool to think 45:54 more clearly now if there's a better way 45:56 to think more clearly with a i great I 45:58 would switch to that definitely not 46:00 found that 46:01 yet a final question that we can close 46:03 with is there's just a lot of people out 46:05 there who are saying that AI is going to 46:06 kill writing and I so dis they're angry 46:09 about it about it and what do you make 46:10 of that I don't see any evidence 46:12 whatsoever that AI seems to be killing 46:15 writing I mean there's like a lot of bad 46:16 AI writing like plastered over the 46:19 Internet um and there's like a lot of 46:21 like bad student assignments that have 46:22 probably been written by AI but I don't 46:25 think anyone's serious I don't think 46:27 Paul Graham is sitting around being like 46:28 AI is going to you know kill my writing 46:30 here I think it would have to be like 46:33 full super intelligence before I was 46:35 like okay this is going to replace human 46:38 writing full stop and we have much 46:41 bigger issues to worry about at that 46:42 point even if that happened um let's say 46:45 we have a system that can write better 46:47 than a human uh do you think that the 46:51 most popular novel of 46:55 2027 has a human name on it or not like 46:58 a human writer on it or not I think yes 47:00 I think it does too when I finish a 47:02 great book the first thing I go do is 47:04 like I want to know about the writer I 47:06 want to know their life story and I 47:08 don't think I'll ever have that feeling 47:10 to like AI writing um that there's there 47:14 is something about you read an 47:17 incredible book and you kind of you get 47:20 connect to a person even though you 47:21 don't literally know them you feel like 47:23 you do and you feel like you have this 47:24 important shared Human Experience and 47:25 that is like some sign ific percentage 47:28 of the enjoyment of a great book to 47:30 me and I bet we keep doing that yeah I 47:34 would agree with that I you know when 47:38 um it's it's one of the 47:41 reasons why 47:44 um there are still chess tournaments 47:47 right we we have ai systems now that we 47:50 could just have ai systems play one 47:52 another in chess and and you know the 47:54 chess games would get increasingly you 47:56 know sophisticated ated and and 47:58 challenging and but they're not it's not 48:00 fun to watch right we want to watch 48:02 Magnus Carlson and see if he you know 48:04 can really pull another one off um and I 48:08 think it's the same with writing and I 48:10 think even if yay we did it brand 48:13 Brandon Brandon's tears are are are you 48:16 know drying on his face now I think he's 48:18 he's like okay we did it we did it we 48:20 saw Sammy um and if the uh if the 48:24 interview from today comes out then uh 48:28 then we we'll look at that one tomorrow 48:30 but but I think I think writing is is a 48:32 similar sort of thing like even if if 48:35 AI significantly augments a writer that 48:41 writer is is still the one that's going 48:43 to put their name on it and put it in 48:44 the world now there might be AIS that 48:46 come up with pseudonyms and put 48:48 themselves in the world it might be hard 48:49 for us 48:51 to 48:53 discern um different um different 48:57 authors right we might we might think 48:59 that a person is behind a book and 49:01 they're actually not it's it's a a 49:04 virtual author so I think that's going 49:06 to be something we're going to have to 49:07 deal with I think the whole idea of 49:09 human identity human 49:11 verification um does start to become 49:14 important uh as as new writers and 49:17 personalities emerge in the 49:19 world 49:21 um but yeah but we're going to 49:23 absolutely use these tools we're going 49:25 to absolutely use these tools I saw a 49:28 Tik Tok today someone sent it to me 49:31 um that was about these bands that are 49:35 fictitious bands and these musicians 49:37 that are fictitious musicians you know 49:39 putting out albums um and I think we're 49:42 going to see a lot of that I think I 49:45 think at some point some you know 49:46 someone's G to get get uh get famous and 49:51 then you know people are going to want 49:52 them to tour and then realize ah they're 49:54 not they're not real 49:57 um you know again I think that I think 50:00 one of the things AI will do is increase 50:03 the value of authentic human 50:07 experiences um it might be crap though I 50:10 can't be objective about it I'm writing 50:14 the story of the future I want to see 50:16 that's kind of cool I feel I I very much 50:20 feel creative in collaborating with AI 50:23 which is significantly augmenting my 50:25 writing I I feel the same way 50:28 I 50:30 the I go from like where I've been 50:34 historically is I'll have an idea for 50:37 something and and with my ADD 50:45 brain for for me to manifest something 50:48 in the 50:49 world it's got to be one of those ideas 50:52 that is persistent right you know those 50:54 ideas that don't leave you alone they 50:55 haunt you 50:59 um that's that's something that I 51:02 historically the ideas that I would 51:04 manifest in the world would be those it 51:07 doesn't mean that the non-hunting ideas 51:10 aren't good it's just sometimes in my 51:12 brain something sticks right um what I'm 51:16 finding with AI is I'll have an idea and 51:19 then I process it somehow with AI and 51:23 it'll spin up three more ideas and I'm 51:25 like oh let me run down that Channel and 51:27 then that'll spin up 10 more ideas and 51:30 so I'm finding that in a creative 51:32 session with AI I'm exploring seven or 51:35 eight or 10 ideas and within that I'm 51:39 either merging them and creating hybrid 51:42 ideas or I'm coming up with you know new 51:44 exciting you know I'm taking one of 51:47 those ideas that I never would have 51:48 gotten to with a traditional approach 51:51 and sometimes I use AI to exploit that 51:54 and sometimes I don't but it's like I 51:55 never would have gotten there had not 51:57 been on that path and that's that's what 51:58 I find exciting khaki fix Simmons 52:01 squirrel 52:02 exactly what AI does is it allows me to 52:05 go squirrel and then manifest that idea 52:08 squirrel manifest that idea and then I 52:10 can sit back and look at him and go oh 52:12 that that's a shitty one but this 52:13 squirrel idea is really 52:16 good it's really really 52:21 fun significantly augmenting my writing 52:24 is a little problematic for for writers 52:27 I disagree with that I fundamentally 52:30 disagree with that Chris most most 52:34 writing is the blocking and tackling of 52:37 just getting the [ __ ] structure down 52:40 right it's not the Nuance in the 52:43 refinement most writing is just the 52:46 [ __ ] 52:48 crap of I have this idea okay now I got 52:51 to come up with a structure now I got to 52:53 put the ideas in the structure if I can 52:55 get a AI to knock out the structure and 52:58 and even start to populate some of the 53:00 structure and then I can go in and look 53:02 at it I I'm still writing I'm Still The 53:05 One refining and and pulling those ideas 53:08 and going no that's a crap idea let me 53:10 swi switch these two things around so I 53:13 I completely disagree I just think it's 53:15 a different way of writing I think it's 53:17 a faster way to process the ideas and 53:20 get the low-level blocking and tackling 53:22 of writing out of the way so I can 53:24 either focus on High level ideation or 53:27 refinement and the [ __ ] in the middle is 53:29 more like curation rather than plotting 53:32 away [ __ ] writing word after word 53:35 after 53:36 word 53:40 so Chris that's how I feel when it 53:42 rewrites my code I I mean listen I think 53:46 that I think that the master Crafts 53:49 People of this 53:52 world that have their 53:54 identity tightly tied to the 53:58 craft are going to have the biggest 54:00 problem with AI for people that love 54:03 putting one word after the other and 54:05 doing that great with ADD I don't have 54:07 the [ __ ] brain for it I hate it that 54:10 that part of the writing process I 54:12 despise I I'm the same way with coding I 54:14 know how to code I'm a shitty coder 54:17 because I despise the detail of all the 54:20 little [ __ ] nuggets I just want to do 54:23 the high level skating right in the case 54:26 of words I can refine it in the case of 54:27 code I can't but if I can get some code 54:30 to just work good enough then that's 54:32 good enough for me but a master coder is 54:35 not going to be happy with that they're 54:36 going to want to refine that same with a 54:38 master writer and I so I think it's just 54:40 going to be different brains will 54:42 interact with these things differently 54:44 and I really do think this idea of the 54:47 more attached you are to the craft of a 54:49 single discipline the rougher this 54:52 transition is going to 54:54 be um 54:57 my story emerged through telling AI 55:00 telling it to AI over and over that's 55:01 pretty 55:03 fascinating um khaki Fitz Simmons yes 55:06 and it takes 55:09 time manually without a tool that can be 55:12 daunting yeah exactly I agree with that 55:15 Kyle I gave 401 save the cat and it 55:18 flipped to hero's journey and 55:20 drastically unblocked and improved my 55:23 drafted screenplay outline I I'll tell 55:25 you what the the thing that I think that 55:27 these things are the best at is sort of 55:32 analyzing and and organizing and you 55:37 know if you've got some semblance of an 55:40 idea and you say I want five different 55:42 storytelling Frameworks it knows them 55:44 all and it can populate five different 55:47 storytelling Frameworks with your idea 55:49 and then you as a human can go look at 55:51 that [ __ ] and go oh this this is the 55:53 direction I want to go I like I find 55:55 that fascinating 55:57 how about I don't even know what that 56:00 means 56:05 Monty all right I think that kind of 56:08 mindset is why many people fear to dance 56:12 or sing they think that there's a 56:13 correct way to do it and they don't want 56:15 to do it badly yeah I I I wouldn't 56:19 disagree with that I had an image in my 56:21 head that I wanted to paint I described 56:24 it to Google in detail it created it and 56:26 then I painted it on canvas incredible 56:28 that's the thing Cara so you know 56:32 someone 56:33 someone I mean my wife's an artist I 56:36 know a lot of 56:39 artists and from the outside they look 56:42 at Ai and they're like I just it you 56:43 know it just vomits out work like even 56:45 if they understand the Nuance that it's 56:47 not copying and pasting art even if they 56:49 understand it's generating art there's 56:51 something about the speed with which it 56:54 generates that art that that devalues it 56:59 in some people's minds and what I would 57:01 argue is you had an image in your head 57:02 you wanted to paint 57:04 it you were able to visualize that 57:06 within seconds and then that allowed you 57:09 to have a a point of reference of the 57:11 thing you wanted to see in the world and 57:13 express that in a different way I don't 57:15 see anything wrong with that at all I 57:17 find that really exciting I'm trying to 57:20 write in a way that actively 57:24 avoids the standard 57:26 drives the story structure it seems more 57:28 interesting to me but maybe it sucks but 57:31 I mean you know what's fascinating 57:32 archetypal architect here's a thing to 57:34 try if you haven't tried it 57:37 is have the AI ask the 57:41 AI 57:44 um what are some successful novels or 57:48 screenplays or 57:50 stories 57:52 that you know are in the world where 57:55 conflict doesn't Drive the story and 57:58 then once it tells you them tell it to 58:01 analyze all those stories and break down 58:03 the structure and give you ideas for 58:06 your story and you could even have it 58:07 analyze your story against those 58:10 successful stories where conflict 58:11 doesn't drive the 58:13 action um these people are the bane of 58:16 my existence it's too fast oh I exactly 58:21 I know that there's something I I think 58:25 we are all going to have to confront 58:26 front the speed that these tools work 58:29 right like one of the one of the areas I 58:33 get completely overwhelmed with with 58:35 with AI is it gives me too many options 58:39 right the curation part of it is hard 58:41 because there's so much coming at me but 58:44 I'm the one driving it I'm the one 58:45 saying give me more ideas give me more 58:47 ideas and I'll run down a rabbit hole 58:49 and sometimes I like the rabbit hole 58:50 better than I like the main thread and 58:53 then I'm kind of in this you know state 58:57 that's a good idea Kyle yeah great try 58:59 that let let me know how that goes Ron 59:01 Weaver that's how I useo I write the 59:03 words and I use AI as a producer who can 59:05 provide alternative music ideas that's 59:08 [ __ ] perfect right I mean like like 59:11 with music production in general you 59:14 know when you talk to musical Geniuses 59:16 they're like oh okay well we could take 59:18 a Samba beat over here and then we could 59:20 put it in a 162 you know chord 59:22 progression and why don't we do it in in 59:24 64 no let's do it in two three you know 59:27 what let's do it in in the big two right 59:31 and they're saying all these terms and 59:33 like if if they share an example with 59:37 you you're like oh that's what that 59:39 means but if your brain if you're not 59:42 encyclopedic 59:45 musically but you know what you like 59:47 you've got good musical taste then soono 59:51 what it allows you to do is just 59:54 describe [ __ ] randomly okay give give me 59:56 some Electronica with folk okay that I 59:59 don't know how that would be and then it 1:00:01 does something you're like oh that's 1:00:02 kind of cool or maybe it rewrites a 1:00:05 prompt or maybe you have chat GPT write 1:00:07 the prompts and it's writing things with 1:00:09 musical terms you may not understand how 1:00:11 to produce musically butso 1:00:14 does and then you listen to 10 12 you 1:00:18 know 50 versions of a song idea and 1:00:21 there's going to be one in there that 1:00:24 just is like Bang that's me I'll I'll sh 1:00:27 I'll share something with 1:00:29 you 1:00:41 um some of you have seen this before so 1:00:43 this is these are all the images I made 1:00:46 for um in in the fall of 1:00:49 2022 I was super into okay World Series 1:00:53 update top of the 9th LA Dodgers one 1:00:57 out guy in first and second leading 7 to 1:01:01 six 1:01:04 okay 1:01:05 so I figured out how to install stable 1:01:08 diffusion after nine failed attempts I 1:01:11 figured out how to use this thing called 1:01:13 dream Booth to do these these funny kind 1:01:15 of self-portraits of me um this one 1:01:18 ended up becoming uh the Genesis image 1:01:21 so this was the very first image I 1:01:24 posted in um 1:01:27 in my Instagram Kyle Shannon dreams 1:01:29 account and I wrote a little story for 1:01:31 this guy like part of what this project 1:01:33 did was it it it inspired me like 1:01:38 um like I felt like I was living 1:01:41 vicariously through these characters I 1:01:43 was creating and I'm like I want to know 1:01:45 this guy's story and so that's what I 1:01:47 wrote on Instagram so if you go to 1:01:49 instagram.com KY Shannon dreams or Tik 1:01:52 tok.com KY Shannon dreams you'll see a 1:01:54 bunch of these images and the stories 1:01:55 that I wrot 1:01:57 but I made I don't know I must have made 1:02:00 10,000 of these images and the ones that 1:02:03 are in here are the ones that I thought 1:02:04 were you know worth hanging on to but 1:02:07 there's one image in here that blew my 1:02:13 mind let me see if I can find 1:02:18 it I mean some of them are just funny 1:02:21 like some of them are just like that 1:02:22 one's just crazy it's you know these are 1:02:25 all like me but not me you know they're 1:02:28 like they're just so 1:02:30 [Laughter] 1:02:34 funny it's the image that I use for the 1:02:37 AI learning lab is the one that I'm 1:02:39 talking 1:02:43 about so I'm making all these images 1:02:45 making all these images and this is over 1:02:47 weeks and weeks you 1:02:51 know these were really cool 1:03:00 [Music] 1:03:03 there it is that 1:03:10 image when this image emerged out of 1:03:14 stable 1:03:17 diffusion it took my breath away like it 1:03:20 was like it was like this emotional 1:03:22 like kind of 1:03:25 moment and and the reason 1:03:28 was this this was an image 1:03:34 that is me 1:03:36 like is exactly my aesthetic 1:03:41 taste and it's the kind of image that if 1:03:44 I had the technical ability that I would 1:03:46 have created from the ground 1:03:48 up and so I think that a lot of 1:03:53 how the creative people that I respect 1:03:56 are using AI is the thing that remains 1:03:59 intact is their 1:04:01 taste right their 1:04:03 discernment their creative point of view 1:04:07 what AI does is it vomits out ideas like 1:04:10 thousands and thousands of ideas right 1:04:12 like all these ideas Bam Bam vomit vomit 1:04:15 vomit and some of them are funny right 1:04:17 like you know here it gave me some ample 1:04:19 bosoms that's [ __ ] hilarious great 1:04:21 right you know um you know this one's 1:04:24 fascinating and weird and creepy 1:04:27 um you know here I am the you know the 1:04:30 Cabbage empresario of Wisconsin I think 1:04:33 is is what I what I gave him but then 1:04:36 when it does something that 1:04:40 is like 100% in line with who you are 1:04:45 creatively that's when you realize that 1:04:47 that there's something there can be 1:04:49 something Transcendent about AI if you 1:04:53 allow yourself to just be in that place 1:04:56 where when it generates something that's 1:04:58 in line with who you are you go that's a 1:05:00 thing I want to put in the 1:05:02 world 1:05:03 right and that's the like the art art is 1:05:08 essentially when the artist stops and 1:05:11 says this is good enough to put in the 1:05:13 world if you haven't read the Rick Rubin 1:05:16 book on creativity and and how he goes 1:05:19 about music production I mean it's it's 1:05:22 all he doesn't know music production he 1:05:25 doesn't know music 1:05:26 music people hire him because of his 1:05:31 taste and that 1:05:34 ultimately is the people that you want 1:05:37 to work with are people that have good 1:05:39 taste because the Tactical execution of 1:05:42 all this stuff is going to happen by the 1:05:45 tools but but why do I choose this image 1:05:49 over this image I don't know cuz while 1:05:53 that one's cool and interesting that's 1:05:55 me 1:05:58 right makes 1:06:01 sense Bonkers 1:06:05 right I like Lord font Leroy 1:06:08 Kyle fat Kyle is still one of my 1:06:11 favorites oh he's mine too I mean some 1:06:13 of them are just the 1:06:15 best here I'll show you some of the Tik 1:06:17 Tok ones because I did I did voice 1:06:19 acting in the Tik Tok 1:06:22 ones uh Tik Tock so this is Kyle Shannon 1:06:25 dreams is where I'm 1:06:29 going so bottom of the 1:06:31 ninth Dodgers are 1:06:34 up 1:06:36 76 if the Dodgers win they win the World 1:06:39 Series if the Yankees win they go back 1:06:43 to LA 1:06:59 [Music] 1:07:04 what 1:07:06 [Music] 1:07:11 happened And So It Begins there was a 1:07:15 time until very recently where you had 1:07:17 to live life to experience it that time 1:07:20 has passed I now lead a life beyond 1:07:24 explanation I am AER first in the 1:07:26 Dreamscape so Grand it defies all 1:07:30 logic these images are the artifacts of 1:07:33 my existence Welcome to my life Welcome 1:07:38 to my 1:07:40 dream right so kind of fun things and 1:07:44 then let's see if I have any fun ones 1:07:47 here um 1:07:49 [Music] 1:07:51 here's enjoy the sweets children in 1:07:56 dulge to your heart's 1:07:58 Delight reveal yourselves to me imagine 1:08:02 yourself floating effortlessly down a 1:08:05 river of 1:08:06 delights close your eyes spread your 1:08:10 arms wide and let yourselves fall 1:08:15 backwards trust 1:08:19 me it's so funny I'm looking at these 1:08:21 now like the the ability to animate the 1:08:24 the faces just wasn't really there I 1:08:26 mean I could have done it if I 3D 1:08:27 modeled them and did all that 1:08:29 [ __ ] um so I just used you know 1:08:35 [Laughter] 1:08:38 technology ah 1:08:42 technology I mean Tom's got a bit about 1:08:44 being too fat to see his dick anymore 1:08:46 and he follows it up with 5 minutes on 1:08:48 his explosive diarrhea and everyone 1:08:50 loves him I make one joke about a 1:08:53 transphobic fireman getting nervous at 1:08:55 the urinal and I can't play the pyy 1:08:57 Student Center anymore I think I might 1:08:59 go back to improv oh I'm sorry uh what 1:09:02 was your order 1:09:07 again oh [ __ ] I didn't I didn't you 1:09:10 couldn't see any of that God damn it I'm 1:09:12 such an 1:09:17 idiot 1:09:18 here I mean Tom's got a bit about being 1:09:21 too fat to see his dick anymore so 1:09:24 anyway that that's think that I didn't 1:09:26 you couldn't see 1:09:29 those And So It Begins there was a time 1:09:33 until very recently where you had to 1:09:35 live life to experience it that time has 1:09:38 passed I now lead a life beyond 1:09:41 explanation I am immersed in a 1:09:43 Dreamscape so Grand it defies all 1:09:47 logic these images are the artifacts of 1:09:51 my existence welcome to my life Welcome 1:09:55 to my my dream so anyway sorry about 1:09:59 that I don't I need a 1:10:01 producer we're seeing the world through 1:10:04 the Joy on Kyle's face the Kyle radio 1:10:07 show yeah sorry about that oh well can't 1:10:11 see can't quite see why but I like 1:10:15 YouTube better than Tik Tok yeah I think 1:10:17 it's just I think it's the ability to 1:10:19 you know just have the full 1:10:21 screen um you know here's one of my 1:10:24 arguments um 1:10:27 our eyes are still left and right like 1:10:30 we see wider than we see tall like our 1:10:33 eyes have not evolved to this yet so 1:10:36 while this is more 1:10:38 ergonomically um correct for our hands 1:10:41 and that's why we have all these 1:10:42 vertical things that's 1:10:45 uncomfortable um our eyes are still like 1:10:48 this so that's why landscape video I I 1:10:50 think is more pleasing but that could 1:10:52 just be the Gen xer in me that grew up 1:10:55 with 1:10:56 TVs um all right is there anything I 1:10:59 wanted to show you there's there was one 1:11:01 tool that I found today that that's 1:11:03 pretty slick it's 1:11:05 called 1:11:07 cesia play. cia. 1:11:11 a and they've got this voice changer 1:11:14 thing that um I can just 1:11:18 record 1:11:21 um oh wait I'm not I'm doing the same 1:11:24 mistake again damn it there we 1:11:27 go so 1:11:29 caresia do play. cartesia 1:11:34 doai and I went to the voice changer 1:11:38 um 1:11:39 thing and then you can either upload a 1:11:42 clip so you can record a clip outside of 1:11:44 this or you can just record it right in 1:11:46 here so you can 1:11:52 say I love small puppies puppies are 1:11:56 lovely I I like going to the to the 1:11:59 pound and looking at the puppies and oh 1:12:02 the LA Dodgers just won the World Series 1:12:05 in New York everyone's booing them but 1:12:07 they're winning yay they did it 1:12:11 yay okay so and now I can just change 1:12:15 the voice oops error changing the voice 1:12:19 why uh uh change 1:12:22 voice maybe I did it too long 1:12:33 here we 1:12:34 go I love small puppies puppies are 1:12:39 lovely I I like going to the to the 1:12:42 pound and looking at the puppies and oh 1:12:45 the LA Dodgers just won the World Series 1:12:48 in New York everyone's booing them but 1:12:50 they're winning yay they did it yay and 1:12:54 then there's all these voices so Barber 1:12:56 Shop man change 1:13:02 voice well that fifth inning where the 1:13:05 Yankees melted down that'll go down in 1:13:09 history they're up five to 1:13:12 nothing I love small puppies puppies are 1:13:16 lovely I I like going to the to the 1:13:19 pound and looking at the puppies and oh 1:13:22 the LA Dodgers just won the World Series 1:13:25 in New York everyone's booing them but 1:13:27 they're win it yay they did it 1:13:31 yay so anyway I thought that was a good 1:13:34 one to show you cuz if you want to 1:13:37 create if you want to create crazy 1:13:39 voices for your animated Act One things 1:13:43 or wherever you're doing it is it free I 1:13:45 think it's free khaki I don't I just 1:13:48 went there and played with 1:13:49 it 1:13:53 um yeah and it's cia. 1:13:58 a and they've got an instant clone where 1:14:00 you can clone your 1:14:02 voice record a voice 1:14:07 clip please upgrade to clone voices yeah 1:14:10 so it looks like some of the things in 1:14:12 here like if if I wanted 1:14:15 to have you record something and then 1:14:18 use my voice on top of it I would have 1:14:20 to have my own cloned 1:14:22 voice but localize what's 1:14:28 that 1:14:31 yeah original speaker gender Target 1:14:36 accent that's 1:14:39 fascinating pick a 1:14:42 voice Italian Comm 1:14:52 man oh each localization cost 200 125 1:14:57 characters all right so some of these 1:14:59 things cost money interesting but voice 1:15:01 changer seems to be 1:15:04 free 1:15:07 so all right good 1:15:10 people nope they want my phone number 1:15:13 Jeff 1:15:14 Flanigan like all the nft guys were like 1:15:17 that not not if they're going to dox 1:15:21 me see see for those of us 1:15:25 who who like I don't know when it was 1:15:30 probably in the late 1:15:33 90s maybe the early 2000s I was just 1:15:36 like [ __ ] it I'll just put all my [ __ ] 1:15:39 on the internet like I sto I stopped 1:15:41 fighting that fight cuz quite frankly 1:15:44 Google knows it all anyway they've 1:15:45 triangulated all the data anyway so Kyle 1:15:48 check your 1:15:50 regulars all right let me check IR 1:15:52 regulars Irregulars 1:15:57 hello 1:16:01 regulars oh nice wow check this 1:16:07 out Danielle 1:16:09 did did a knockoff of my favorite image 1:16:12 that's beautiful love 1:16:14 it yeah and and you know Danielle what's 1:16:17 funny is like this is I look at this and 1:16:20 I'm like yeah that's that's the kind of 1:16:21 thing that I would love to be able to 1:16:23 create and we now live in a world world 1:16:25 where I could create that you could 1:16:28 create that you could be inspired by my 1:16:29 thing I could be inspired by your thing 1:16:31 someone else could just like the the the 1:16:34 Fibonacci spirals that are coming out of 1:16:36 the smoke here and and go do a whole 1:16:38 artwork based on that 1:16:41 right 1:16:48 crazy 1:16:51 um all right so where I am right now I'm 1:16:54 at the the AI salon so if you're new 1:16:57 here go to the salon. and click on the 1:17:01 button that says join our community and 1:17:06 when you do that that's going to take 1:17:07 you 1:17:08 to um the salon and the salon is really 1:17:13 a remarkable Community we we start with 1:17:16 h a video from myself and Leah faston 1:17:18 who's a co-founder of the salon we talk 1:17:21 about the journey to AI literacy which 1:17:23 is really quite simple it starts with 1:17:25 play play to learn these tools like one 1:17:28 of the reasons I kind of [ __ ] around 1:17:29 with these tools and just do it in a non 1:17:32 serious way is that's how we can find 1:17:34 the boundaries of these tools and figure 1:17:36 out how they actually work and what 1:17:37 they're good at and what they're not and 1:17:39 then when you want to actually do 1:17:40 something you've got some knowledge 1:17:42 across a series of tools where you can 1:17:44 mindfully create and then generously 1:17:46 lead is like Learn out Loud tell people 1:17:49 what you're doing tell people what's 1:17:51 working what's not share how you do what 1:17:53 you're doing because it's we're we're 1:17:56 moving into a world of infinite content 1:17:59 generation where it's going to be 1:18:00 infinitely easy to create stuff and to 1:18:03 come up with ideas so the preciousness 1:18:06 of feeling like you have to hoard your 1:18:08 ideas let that [ __ ] go because things 1:18:11 are moving too fast to be able 1:18:14 to sustain yourself in that world people 1:18:18 are going to just sort of blow your 1:18:19 doors off just blow by you so anyway 1:18:22 that's what this community is all about 1:18:24 um there's a simple little seven-step 1:18:26 onboarding process here just walk 1:18:28 yourself through that and then you know 1:18:30 we've got you know about the community 1:18:32 we've got a news area the showand tell 1:18:34 areas are where you can go show off your 1:18:36 you know latest images and things like 1:18:38 that um but also every one of these has 1:18:41 a list of recommended 1:18:43 tools and a place to talk about hey how 1:18:46 do you use that tool how' you do that 1:18:48 thing every one of these showand tell 1:18:50 areas has that so it's an incredibly 1:18:53 valuable resource and then we've got 1:18:55 creative guilds all these sub 1:18:56 communities within the the uh within the 1:19:00 community and we've got clubs so the AI 1:19:03 irregular uh is this group um for the 1:19:07 for the AI learning lab so the people 1:19:09 that show up here night after night 1:19:11 so if you 1:19:15 are new 1:19:17 here subscribe and you know just keep 1:19:21 coming back and then uh how we wind 1:19:24 these things up 1:19:25 is I will go through here did water 1:19:28 cooler go away no water cooler did not 1:19:31 go away water cooler is 1:19:34 now um hang 1:19:39 on water cooler is now where is 1:19:44 it hangout and chat So within hangout 1:19:47 and chat is the water 1:19:50 cooler we just water cooler didn't 1:19:53 make as much sense in terms of 1:19:58 uh kind of the onboarding process it 1:20:01 wasn't it wasn't Crystal Clear what that 1:20:03 step was so hang out and chat is really 1:20:05 the water cooler so the the whole idea
