Transcript

1. 0:00take you to the air salon. All right, we are streaming. [music]
2. 0:17[music] >> [music]
3. 0:35>> Good day. Good day. Happy Wednesday, everybody. It's Wednesday, October 14th. This is the AI learning lab. Welcome to
4. 0:43the learning lab. Welcome to the AI salon. You're inside the AI salon. I hope you're doing well. Tonight is
5. 0:49Wednesday. That's create excellence night. We're actually going to do some creating tonight for an actual project.
6. 0:55Uh so I'm super excited about that. So if you hang out, we're going to be making logos and images and backgrounds
7. 1:02and maybe ads. I don't know. We're going to be just generating a pile of stuff. Um so it should be fun. And uh
8. 1:15maybe y'all can play along. Uh if you if you want to comment on tonight's live, if you go up to this upper corner right
9. 1:23here, if you're on Tik Tok, uh you won't be able to see any of the comments. Your comments are independent over here. Um
10. 1:30but uh if you want to join the live stream and be able to see what we're doing, just go to my profile, click on
11. 1:35the link, that'll bring you to the AI salon. Um and if you're in the AI salon, if you go to the link up here, that'll
12. 1:42pop up in the comments section. You can join the comments. If you're new to the AI salon, the AI salon is a really
13. 1:49remarkable community. Got all these different areas. Think of them like little neighborhoods inside a bigger
14. 1:55city uh for people doing everything from creating things to doing business stuff to to just helping people in their daily
15. 2:04lives to digging deeper into the AI conversation in the AI salon mastermind. Um lots of really interesting stuff
16. 2:12going on in there. There's politics and advocacy. Um, so all that stuff's going on inside here. So down the the lefth
17. 2:19hand column of the interface, you can see um all those different options. So go check it out. Check out the events
18. 2:27tab to see all the events we've got going on. There's lots and lots of them. I'm doing a 4-week session on um
19. 2:35how do you anticipate what's coming in business? Um, how do you prepare for this if you're a leader in business and
20. 2:43you're not really paying all that much attention to this AI stuff, but all of a sudden it's making a lot of noise,
21. 2:48realizing you got to deal with it and you haven't dealt with it. So, I'm doing a four-week seminar on that. So, that's
22. 2:53all coming up tonight. Let's [clears throat] see. How long has chat GPT been doing this weird web development?
23. 3:01What's the rest of that sentence with their chat gim similar to uh the Gemini similar to Gemini canvas um OpenAI's been changing their
24. 3:16interface for a while now where they chat GPT got rid of the canvas and now it's just there's like they call it web
25. 3:24view or something like that all these so so here's the thing that's going on in general with all these
26. 3:31companies um by the way if you're in the AI salon in the chat do me a favor pop up in the chat and say hi over here cuz
27. 3:38no one's checked in yet. So, so pop a comment in there just so I can make sure things are running. I don't have my
28. 3:44producer yet. He's at MCON. They had some sort of dinner tonight. So, he said he's probably going to be late. Um, so I'm I'm flying solo.
29. 3:52So [laughter] you you're going to get what you what you would expect with me on my own tonight. Uh, but if you could just pop a
30. 4:02comment in and that way I can see that the comments are working. Um, so where was I? I lost my train of thought.
31. 4:14Anyway, tonight I'll get back to it. If anyone remembers what I was talking about, let me know and I'll I'll
32. 4:20continue down that path. But tonight, what we're going to do is we've got an event coming up. So, three
33. 4:30years ago, we did an event called GPT for Good. Um the last two years we've done a thing called AI Festivus and this
34. 4:38year we decided we're not going to do AI festivus again. Uh it's going to be the AI salon on its own. We we uh the past
35. 4:45years have done this in conjunction with she leads AI. So this year we're doing it on our own and instead of AI
36. 4:53festivists, one of the things that struck me is that when we did the original GPT for good, it was just kind
37. 4:59of like a party. Um, and I thought, what if we just have a party? And then also, we're living in a time where AI is just
38. 5:07accelerating insanely right now. Um, Claire Jacobs, hello. No, good to see you. Hi, friends. So, comments are
39. 5:14working. If you have any questions uh in AI salon, just just the uh the comments are up there. Just click that, pop a
40. 5:21question in. I can pull that up. Um, so I thought, what if what here's the thing lately, I don't know about you, but I
41. 5:33feel like one, there is so much to learn, I can't learn anything in anymore. Things are moving so fast that
42. 5:42as I learn stuff, they become obsolete quicker and quicker and quicker. So I think there's kind of a burnout on like
43. 5:48learning all the stuff, right? I think the the the the role of the salon and and certainly for the first two years of of this
44. 5:58generative AI era were about like what are these tools? How do we figure them out? We've got to learn everything we
45. 6:03can about them. We're now at a point where people still have stuff to learn, but it is so big and so vast and even
46. 6:10something like chat GPT is probably close to a hundred separate features. It's more like an ecosystem of
47. 6:18capabilities than it is a thing you can learn. And things are accelerating. Like the rumor has it that all of the major labs
48. 6:32including Meta, including Google, including SpaceX AI, um, including Anthropic, including OpenAI have reached RSI or what they
49. 6:44call recursive self-improvement where the AI starts designing the next AI and things are going to get better
50. 6:50and better and better, faster and faster. And so the AI that we knew is kind of gone or it's going, right? It
51. 7:02was the AI we grew up on here in the AI salon was a quaint AI. It was just a little chat box and you typed in a
52. 7:10prompt and you got back an answer. It was very quaint. And then there were picture things and then there were movie
53. 7:16things and music things and there were these individual little discrete tools and they were very quaint.
54. 7:24And that's not what it is anymore. It's a much more sophisticated, much more um aggressive, ambitious, agentic kind of AI.
55. 7:34So this year we're going to throw a party and the party is going to be called the end of AI as we know it. The
56. 7:40end of AI as we know it party, formerly AI festival. Um, and so it's going to happen on December 26th and it's going
57. 7:49to go noon to midnight on December 26th. And so tonight, what we're going to do is we're going to start building the
58. 7:58graphics. We're going to start building um the branding and the graphics and things like that. So if any of you have
59. 8:04ideas and want to jump in and play along, you can do that. Um, this could be an absolute train wreck. We might end
60. 8:14up with brilliance. We might end up with crap. [laughter] In the in the spirit of the AI learning lab, uh my job is to be willing to fail
61. 8:26publicly. So, you've got the confidence to fail privately. [laughter] I am betting on brilliance. No, you're
62. 8:36very sweet. Um let's start with a picture of a train wreck. It's not a It's not a bad idea, actually. Okay. Um, so let me share my screen.
63. 8:53Okay, there's that. I'm going to move this over here and I am going to go this.
64. 9:09Where do I want to start? That's actually a really interesting question mark. So I think I'm going to do a whole new window
65. 9:24and I'm going to do chat GPT. Start with chat GPT. I can see clearly now the rain is gone.
66. 9:40I can see all obstacles in my way. Okay, close that down. There's chat GBT. Then I think we're going to bring up Claude
67. 9:55and then go look at Claude design. Um quad design
68. 10:16introducing cloud design. We're launching cloud design. Okay. cloud.com productdesign. So there's design. All right,
69. 10:31we got that claw design lives here now. Visit the standalone migrate. Oh, so it's an artifact.
70. 10:49Okay, design. Add an artboard. Canvas has no artboards yet. Add one or let Claude add some. an artboard.
71. 11:06I just realized I don't know how to use cloud design. Where do you put the prompt? Any anybody know this? I might be
72. 11:13bailing on this one. [laughter] All right, that's good. We'll we'll come back to that. We'll figure out how to
73. 11:20use it. Okay. Uh, I'm going to pull up um Gen Spark because Gen Spark has some interesting design stuff and we did some really fun
74. 11:30things with GenSpark last year with Festivus, some Festivus ads that ended up not getting used, but they were
75. 11:38really fun. Let me sign in here and let's see. All right, so if you're new here, welcome. This is the AI
76. 11:50learning lab. We're inside the AI salon. And if you're on Tik Tok and you want to jump over there, just go to my profile,
77. 11:57click on the link, that'll jump you into the AI salon. You'll be able to see the screen that I'm I'm looking at here.
78. 12:04You can use GenSpark in your apps. Beautiful. Okay. Fantastic.
79. 12:19Okay. What are we gonna do? Let's see.
80. 12:35Do I want to do work? Do I want a new do a new project? Choose project. Yeah, let's do a new project. We'll call it end of AI as we know it
81. 12:52party GPT 6.1 soul extra high. Okay.
82. 13:11So, the first thing that I want to do, I think I just want to vomit some ideas into this. So, what I'm going to do is
83. 13:32window over here a little smaller.
84. 13:52Okay, there's producer Brandon. Producer Brandon, what's happening? Hey, before we get jumping in here,
85. 13:59producer Brandon, do you wanna are are you chatable? And if you are, do you want to hop up and tell us how your day was?
86. 14:11got nothing. His mic's not working. I'm guessing we're we're having a Bluetooth failure. [laughter] Mr. in the house. What's happening?
87. 14:25Yeah, have it develop a style brand guide. Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. But I've got to sort of vomit my
88. 14:30ideas in it first before I can have it do that. All right, there I see producer Brandon. Can you chat or is your You got no
89. 14:44microphone? No microphone. Okay. All right. Producer Brandon, mic isn't working apparently. Okay, cool.
90. 14:57Okay, so what we're going to do, so I'm just going to vomit a bunch of ideas in here. producer Brandon is at is at MCON
91. 15:03as as many of you may know. And uh so if you can get the mic working, he'll come up and tell us how his day's been. But
92. 15:10what I'm going to do now is I'm going to say, okay, I want to develop a style and brand guide for an event that we're having
93. 15:23that's part of the AI salon called the end of AI as we know it party, formerly AI Festimus. And the idea is that everything is changing
94. 15:37very, very quickly. and the quaint AI that we used to know um we didn't know and there's also all this fear about AI
95. 15:44going on and so we thought what we'd do is rather than hide from that why don't we lean into it so so why don't we lean
96. 15:53into you know the end of the world as we know it as a as a theme we'll call it the end of a AI as we know it party it's
97. 16:02a 12-hour party that's happening the day after Christmas Um, every hour is a different uh there's a different host and
98. 16:15it starts at noon and it ends on midnight on um on Eastern time on December 26th. And um we want to kind of lean into the apocalypse
99. 16:30aesthetic. So, we want to create um things like bunker backgrounds for people to use as their backgrounds on the live stream.
100. 16:41We're going to be doing it on Google Meet so that people can see each other and hang out and just have fun and talk
101. 16:48about AI and talk about their lives and talk about whatever. Each hour will kind of have a theme. Each hour is going to have a host.
102. 16:58And one of the things that I think we could lean into is we promise you you won't learn anything, [laughter] right?
103. 17:08Where where the past two years with AI Festivus, it was about learn as much as you can in this 24hour period. This is
104. 17:16kind of the opposite of that. We're going to hang out. We're going to connect as human beings. Um maybe even
105. 17:22one of the hours we'll talk about nothing AI. Um, and uh, and that's what we're going to do. So, what I would like you to do for me is to
106. 17:34take all of this that I just vomited in there and take what you know of me and of the salon and of festivists from last
107. 17:41year and I want you to first let me know that you understand it and then give me five concept ideas for um aesthetic look
108. 17:57and feels feel for the branding and the campaign of this here event. All right, let's see if it just ate all
109. 18:08of my recording. Dictation stopped. View recording.
110. 18:24It did. It just It just ate it, didn't it? Recording saved. download audio.
111. 18:41Honest to God, Open AI, you gotta you got to make this work.
112. 19:03Um, transcribe this audio as a prompt.
113. 19:17Failed to fetch. Come on, man. Really?
114. 19:41working. Thinking I'll transcribe the recording and turn it into a clear prompt. Okay, good. That's what I was hoping you would do before.
115. 20:03Chat needs a flu shot. It's feeling icky lately. Yeah, it's not great, is it? I'm using Hyperframes transcription workflow.
116. 20:19This is unbelievable. So, it's got a transcription built into it, but it broke. So, so now it's using hyperframes from
117. 20:34Hey Gen to do the transcription, transcribing audio dictation to text, which that's actually probably costing me Hey Gen API money,
118. 20:47checking available speech recognition libraries. This is unbelievable. Okay, so here's the good news. The good news is
119. 20:59we all have trillion dollar artificial intelligence at our fingertips. The bad news is it still sucks. [laughter]
120. 21:15Oh man, I was betting on brilliance. Was exactly this is unbelievable. The recording is read the transcription
121. 21:26engine. Okay, I'm going to stop this right now. Um, you have a transcription ability, but it broke and I uploaded
122. 21:42your recording so you could transcribe it. Why are you using hyper frames.
123. 21:59Oh, good lord. Good lord. Good lord. So, I guess what we're going to do is we're gonna hop over to Claude because I think
124. 22:04Claude actually works. Janky. Yes. Still janky after all these years. Still janky after all these years. Yeah. [laughter]
125. 22:23Oh man. >> [laughter] >> Mr. It is trying to figure it all out as all as are we all.
126. 22:37You're right. Using hyperframes was unnecessary. Oh my god, this is unbelievable. So, let's go over. Actually, you know,
127. 22:49you know what's probably better? Let's go to Gemini. We're say we're say plus upload files. Go here. We're going to go Wait, why
128. 23:06can't it Why did it not upload that upload files? Oh, this is broken. This isn't even an audio file. So, chat GPT just totally borked that
129. 23:19transcription. That's what happened. All right. Well, them. We're not gonna We're not going to do that. All right. Let's see. Chat
130. 23:32one cloud for your work. Everything where you need it. That was API credits. Hi,
131. 23:50it's you. Hi. Okay. Um, hey there. Are you transcribing this in real time? You are. Okay, great. So, I guess I'm starting over. All
132. 24:05right.
133. 24:32Okay, let let me tell you why I just stopped and had a had a had a brain freeze moment there. Um,
134. 24:46most of my context for all of the stuff I've done for the past four years is in ChatGpt. Chat GPT's transcription thing sucks.
135. 24:57It's just broken. Claude's transcription thing is really good. But all my context is over there. So, what just stopped me was I was going
136. 25:09to explain to Claude all the things about what the AI salon is and what Festivus was, but chat because chat GPT
137. 25:16already knows it, but Claude doesn't. But then I thought I can just use Claude to transcribe it while I'm talking and
138. 25:21then I'll copy and paste it and go to Chat GPT and paste it. Okay I this isn't a meltdown Monday, but I'm getting really cranky.
139. 25:36They They shouldn't be this bad. It shouldn't be this bad. It's this supposed to be magical. AI is supposed to be magical. [laughter]
140. 25:49Okay. Anyway, um welcome. By the way, I see there's a fair amount of new people here uh in the AI salon. Um welcome. So,
141. 25:58what we're doing tonight is we're going to do some branding and graphics and maybe even some promotional stuff for a
142. 26:05party that we're going to have on December 26th called It's the End of AI as We Know It. And I went to start my creative brief in
143. 26:14Chat GBT and it ate my transcription. And so, that's where we are. And now I'm pissed off. And so, I'm trying to be
144. 26:20creative and enlightened and expansive while I'm cranky. >> [sighs] >> Take the MD.
145. 26:34Wait, get some images together. Take the MD and some images and voila. Tell ChatGpt to create a handover
146. 26:44that covers Festivus as an M MD file. Oh, I see what you're saying. And do it in Claude. Yeah, but chat GPT has the
147. 26:51image generation stuff in it. I I kind of just wanted to start there. So, I So, I I figure out what I'm going to do. All
148. 26:57right, we're gonna we're gonna go here. Okay, I want to create um a brand and style guide for an endofear party that
149. 27:08we're having in the AI salon called It's the End of AI as we know it party, formerly AI festivist period.
150. 27:23The idea is that we want to return to the original spirit of GPT for good that we had on
151. 27:37December 2023 where the feeling of the event was just a big party. And then for the next two years after that we did AI festivists
152. 27:46which were really powerful education events. But AI is accelerating and transforming and we're now in an agentic world and we don't
153. 27:57have the the quaintness that we did of those early days where you could just learn discreet things and kind of have a
154. 28:04handle on AI. It's much more complicated now. And so we thought rather than trying to fight how complicated it is,
155. 28:12why don't we just decide to have a party? And so this is going to be um a party that's 12 hours long. It starts at
156. 28:19noon Eastern and ends at midnight Eastern on December 26th. And every hour is going to be a different theme and we'll have a
157. 28:28different host and there'll be some activities, but for the most part it's just going to be like a big Google Meet
158. 28:33party where people are going to have their their cameras on and they're going to have um bunker backgrounds and we're
159. 28:41going to have a competition for who can design their the the most uh inspiring bunker. Uh, so we've got to create
160. 28:48bunker graphics, but we also need to create look and feel for the typography and what what are going to be on the
161. 28:56posters and what the ads might look like and things like that. So, what we need is to do some work on concepts for what the look and feel
162. 29:11might be. We really want to lean into this idea of the apocalypse. there's all this fear and all of these companies are
163. 29:22talking about how dangerous AI is. So rather than tiptoe around that, we thought why not lean into it and so it's
164. 29:29the end of AI as we know it party and we're going to hang out. we're going to have fun and so it should be celebratory
165. 29:35and tongue andcheek like a bad horror flick um where the pretty girls make the wrong decisions at every step along the way. [laughter]
166. 29:50Okay, that's it. Uh let's see what you got. Why don't you give me five different concepts for what this is and what it could be?
167. 30:08Copy. Check. Okay. So, let's send that. We We're going to send that one sailing there inside Claude. And then we're going to also send this
168. 30:19one sailing inside chat GPT. We're going to choose the project. And it's going to be Oh, no. That's not it.
169. 30:27It's going to be the end of AI as we know it. All right. There's our big ass prompt. All right. So, there's chat GPT. Here's Claude.
170. 30:38Oh, Claude went straight into sketching. I've put together five distinct visual concepts for the party. Each has its own
171. 30:46tight pallet, poster treatment, and bunker background direction. Okay. Interesting. Oh, it's it's it dumped it over to
172. 30:58Claude design automatically for us. Cool. All right. Have at it. Claude chatbt. I'm using the creative production skill to develop five
173. 31:11distinct visual directions, each with poster styling, typography, and a take on the bunker party. So, this is different. Okay. I'm glad
174. 31:23we're doing this. Um, when I've done this historically, what I get back is text, right? We do like a creative brief
175. 31:37and with both chat GPT and Claude, they've developed design tools. Okay. The core idea is the world may be
176. 31:51getting weirder, but we can still have a good damn good time together. I'm exploring I'm exploring five looks.
177. 31:57Gloriously bad monster movie. Cheerful civil defense campaign. That's kind of fun. An apocalypse disco. A bunker
178. 32:05vacation resort or a cozy refuge for the end of the world. [laughter] Pretty good. All right, let's see what
179. 32:14Claude's got working over here. I don't Is it still working? Let's see.
180. 32:47I can't tell if that's working or not. It looks like it might be hung.
181. 33:12thinking. Oh, working. Thinking.
182. 33:28[laughter] This is bizarre. Status active. Last activity.
183. 33:44That was just a blank art board I did. Claude is working. Okay, that says Claude is working. Okay, so that's
184. 33:52working. Chat GPT is working. Finished. Finished. Finished. Active. Be a movie poster.
185. 34:14So what's fascinating about this is I mean this is an appropriately named party
186. 34:28because like I haven't done I haven't done an exercise like this in probably three months. And the last time I did
187. 34:35this, you would type stuff into chat GPT and it would respond. And now you type stuff into chat GBT and it thinks and
188. 34:43and it's off concepting. And same with Claude. You type stuff in and it's it's going off and doing work. Like
189. 34:52even for the tools that used to behave in a predictable way, they're not even predictable anymore. Um, yeah, that's okay, Brandon. I No, no
190. 35:08need.
191. 35:35Hey, producer Brandon, while you're uh while while these two things are doing mysterious stuff. Um, if your microphone works, you want
192. 35:49to hop up on stage. The first four posters are ready. The movie poster direction feels closest. So, we click on these
193. 36:04path. Here's the PNG. Why can I not see this I guess cuz it's still working. Loading the final response.
194. 36:35Huh? Producer Brandon's mic is still dead. Okay, so here's Claude design. Hate this.
195. 36:53How do you zoom in that
196. 37:12page one? >> [laughter] >> Okay. Um,
197. 37:29does anybody Oh, there's the other stuff. Okay. Is this this janky? because
198. 37:46it's still building these probably.
199. 38:30Hey, Kyle. Can you hear me now? Okay. I can't hear you. Your mic got muted. I I got mine unmuted and somehow yours got muted.
200. 38:39>> What happened? All right. Now I'm unmuted. Jesus. >> Okay. But yes, so now now that you can hear me. Yes. Hello.
201. 38:47>> Hello. Um, f first time caller, longtime listener. [laughter] Your first day of chat to EPT. Is this reschedule a back
202. 38:56to be basics that I wasn't aware of? >> It's it's unbelievable. It's I mean, you know, we're calling it the end of AI as
203. 39:03we know it party and I'm going in to use AI as I know it. And it is not how I know it. It's completely different. [laughter]
204. 39:11>> Uh, no is saying cloud design does take a long time to cook. So we might have to get be a little patient. But yes, MCON
205. 39:19day one was incredible. >> Um we had everyone from Paul Reiter and Mike Kaput uh from Marketing AI Institute and the Marketing AI podcast
206. 39:30uh talking about you know and pontificating about what they think the future is going to be like and painting
207. 39:36the rosy optimistic picture that we always try to do. Uh and uh one of the the closing keynote was Andrew Yang. um
208. 39:45talking about how uh universal basic income is going to become a a necessity. Uh and uh he was actually quite
209. 39:52entertaining. He he he if he doesn't get president, standup comedy is in his future. >> Oh, that's great. Um, and we saw Gwen uh
210. 40:02and a couple of other uh AI salon members uh who were hanging out in the wings and um >> very uh very good crowd, very interesting um
211. 40:13conversations happening around the water cooler, >> more adoption, more curiosity, um more companies leaning in and a lot
212. 40:22of educators. That was new this year. There was a lot of educators that were trying to figure out uh what happened. And I also had this guy.
213. 40:32>> Yeah. Rick Maui, what's happening, big boy? >> Yeah, man. I got a 20-minute interview with Mike Kaput. >> Oh, nice.
214. 40:40>> On their broadcasting stage, and tomorrow morning, they're actually going to play it on their uh AI TV channel. >> Oh, that's awesome.
215. 40:49>> And Paul said to you, "Say hi to Kyle for me." >> Yeah. So I walk up and I go, "Hey, I'm with the AI salon." And he goes, "Oh,
216. 40:57yeah. How's Kyle doing?" >> And we went on for a few minutes talking about you, sir. >> So I guess you know him from way back.
217. 41:06>> Well, he was he spoke at the AI salon two, three years ago now. >> Oh, okay. We got to get him back, man. These guys are hot.
218. 41:13>> Yeah, I know. They're they're they're doing really amazing work there. That's awesome. >> Cool. So yeah, lots of good
219. 41:18conversations and uh >> yeah, I will now return you to your regularly scheduled jank already in progress.
220. 41:25>> Oh my god, the jank is so janky. It's so janky. There's like no progress bars. There's no way to know what these things
221. 41:30are doing. Which like the the confidence here of the of the the Frontier Labs to say we're just going to do stuff in the
222. 41:38background. You just go smoke a cigarette. We got you. Um there's there's some good hubris there. [laughter] Um
223. 41:48okay. Is this done? Let's see. Across every There's that. Okay. My vote is for bemov bunker bash
224. 42:05typography. Um, why can I not see any of these things? Um, why can I not see any of the images
225. 42:23you made? And it says it says it finished five, but over here there's four.
226. 42:42The previews didn't display in my reply. I'll attach all five directly here. Okay. All right. Well, that's thinking. Let's
227. 42:54go look at what it came up with. The Bem movie bunker bash. The end is near. Bring snacks. That's not bad. Giant
228. 43:02robots. Questionable decisions. An improbability and improbably excellent party underground. The posters look like
229. 43:10vintage sci-fi movies. Jagged lettering. Typography. Okay. Um, how it expands. Hourly hosts get starring.
230. 43:22Number two. The department of having a good time. Please remain festive. I like please remain festive. That's a nice
231. 43:28call back to Festivus. A fictional civil defense department has issued an urgent directive. Enjoy yourself.
232. 43:35Like that. That's interesting. Anton headlines beat IBM Plex mono details. Disco at the end of the world. The
233. 43:44future is uncert uncertain. The dance floor is open. That's good. I like it. Apocalypse all-inclusive. Your bunker,
234. 43:53your paradise. The end of the world advertised as a vacation destination. And then the cozy catastrophe. If
235. 44:00everything's changing, pull up a chair. I like that. Or grab your popcorn. There's something nice about that.
236. 44:06I generated them but didn't properly attach previews in my response. Sorry for that mistake. All five are now attached in order.
237. 44:18Nothing is attached. How is it possible you suck this bad?
238. 44:33Which if you didn't see it last week, Anthropic is adding to their um their their user agreements that you will not
239. 44:45bully their models. And they're saying they're only doing it for really bad bullies. So, I don't know if telling it that it sucks really bad
240. 44:56is bullying, [laughter] but it certainly isn't polite. You're right. I twice claimed they were attached and they weren't. Oh, look.
241. 45:06It's actually attaching something. Okay. All right. Fantastic. All right. The end of the world as we know it party formerly a festivist.
242. 45:23That's a little a little saucy, little sexist. We But we can we can we can with that. Modify that. All right. That's not bad.
243. 45:37Wait, where'd they go? Where did my links go? Wait, all of what it created is gone.
244. 45:53You got to be kidding me. Sites. Oh,
245. 46:08how does where? Wait. And why can't I not expand this window over here? The panel with the chats in it.
246. 46:24The end of AI as we know it. Party party brand concepts. Okay, there we go. We're back. This is so bad.
247. 46:38Um, why can't you display these images in line in the chat? This is ridiculous.
248. 46:55I I I mean, I feel like I'm in 1997 where none of the software worked. Good news. Your chat GPT can do
249. 47:11everything. You just won't be able to find it. I'm going to cry thinking for 26 seconds.
250. 47:26The inline previews still aren't rendering for you. I'll try the chat's standard attachment location with the
251. 47:32existing images. Copying AI party concept images. I'm late. What the heck are we talking about, Cam? What we're talking about is how bad
252. 47:45chat GPT is right now. Oh, okay. Now it did it. What is going on? It's the end of AI as we know it party.
253. 48:01AI salon presents formerly AI festivist. End of AI as we know it party. Your bunker, your paradise, the disco. That's kind of fun. It's the
254. 48:17end of AI as we know it party. The future is uncertain. The dance floor is open. Please remain festive.
255. 48:28Well, I kind of like this look and feel actually. That actually feels kind of unique and interesting
256. 48:44that doesn't while I like this style that doesn't necessarily scream this is an event that you can come to. This
257. 48:53looks more like I used chat GPT to make one of those 50s movie posters. I like the end is near. Bring snacks.
258. 49:06It's the end of AI as we know it. Party. Party's big. Please remain fested. I'm digging that one.
259. 49:21All right. It's the end of AIM presents. It's the end of AI as we know it. Party. The future is uncertain. The dance floor is open.
260. 49:34Again, that doesn't feel like a party. This does. And that just feels like generic AI slop.
261. 49:51I'll bring nachos. Beautiful. Bring the nachos. Okay. The department of having a good time.
262. 50:21What are your thoughts? PE people drop comments in. So, so let me know which one you like. We've got one is the BM movie bunker
263. 50:31bunker bash. And I know it's sexist. You don't need to comment on that. Um, two is is the department of having a good time.
264. 50:43And again, what we're looking for is which which one here feels like something that you would stop the scroll, would get you to look at it,
265. 50:53would get you to want to be at the party. Two is good. I think two is really good. Okay. Three, Disco at the End of the World.
266. 51:06Four is Apocalypse All-Inclusive. And then five is the cozy catastrophe. I'm going to veto five. So So you're
267. 51:16voting on one, two, three, or four. So far, we've got one vote. We've got 26 people in here. If you can, up in the
268. 51:25upper corner of the window there, up there, you can pop open the chat. Do me a favor and throw your throw your vote in here. One, two,
269. 51:40three. Four.
270. 52:05Okay, that's not a bad idea. No, Emmy. Let me I'm gonna try one more time to dictate, but this is I I'm I'm so cranky at chat GPT right now.
271. 52:17Number two is the closest, but I'm generally unimpressed. Number two is the only one that actually feels like an invite. The others feel
272. 52:28more like movie posters that I just scroll past. I'm not going to talk much. Oh, see there. There it actually transcribed it.
273. 52:40What do I want it to do here? Let's see. Um, I'd like you to rethink
274. 52:55one, three, four, and five. And for number two, I want to bring formerly AI festivist up somewhere in the it's the end of AI
275. 53:10as we know it. Party maybe right below the word party or something like that. I don't want it to be quite as hidden.
276. 53:17I'd also like to throw in a an AI salon logo, which I think you have somewhere buried in your files. I'd like you to include the URL for the
277. 53:31salon, the salon.ai. And yeah let's
278. 53:46do that. Okay. All right. So, we're going to have it go think and then deliver disappointing crap. Okay. So here's
279. 54:01okay. So this is now claude design which these suck because claude design is just using um vector graphics. It's just it's
280. 54:16basically drawing it instead of using any image generation stuff. Ah god, this is frustrating. Can I go ahead and actually type in here?
281. 54:38So, this is more what I asked for, which was which was brand concepts, brand and style guidelines, but they're horrible.
282. 54:49I wouldn't want to go to any of these. Claude design is giving you elements of the style you're developing. Yeah, but they suck. [laughter]
283. 55:01I understand what it's giving me. It's just All right. So let's
284. 55:16number two. I can do a new I can do a new chat and the other one will keep going, right? Isn't that the case? Does anybody know
285. 55:28that? Um, I want you to write me a creative brief
286. 55:42or number two. It's the end of the world as we know it.
287. 55:59So, this is still going, right? Yeah, that's still going. This is a chat that's created brief number two. Okay,
288. 56:10so those are still going. I am bailing on cloud design right now. Go back to cloud design once we have some look and
289. 56:19feel kind of stuff. Maybe AI apocalypse. Oh, that's not bad. E Harold, something about the AI apocalypse.
290. 56:36End of AI as we know it. Um uh uh okay, while we're doing that,
291. 56:53let's go to we'll go to Gemini. We're gonna say stay to Gemini. I want Let's see. Let's use our little microphone. I'm having
292. 57:07an end of AI as we know it party and it's going to be online in Google Meet on December 26th and we want to create a series of
293. 57:25bunker background images that people can select from and then they can take those core bunker background ground images and
294. 57:35they can decorate them. And we're going to have a contest for the best decorated bunker background. And so what I'd like
295. 57:42you to do is write me 20 prompts for midjourney that make interesting backgrounds
296. 57:57that are the inside of a bunker. So the person looks like they're sitting inside their bunker. And some should really should be really
297. 58:05sparse. Some might be have things like prepper food or ammo or I don't know stuff stuff that
298. 58:19you'd see in a bunker if you were like in a silo, you know, a bunker. So write me a bunch of prompts that I can take into midjourney. Stop.
299. 58:33Okay. And I know this has got nano banana in it, so we we're going to deal with that, too. It's the end of AI as we know it, but
300. 58:45we'll be fine. Here's a curated list. Okay. Now, I'm going to try something here
301. 58:59which I have not tried. Okay. Oh, it's starting to make them. That's
302. 59:15what I was going to tell it to do. I will generate one of these backgrounds so you can see how it looks.
303. 59:27So, that's a question. Do we want them to look photo realistic? I think we do. Make the other 19.
304. 59:49All right. So, that's off doing that. So now how's Chat GPT doing? You still thinking there buddy? Okay, so here's a creative brief. Let's
305. 1:00:04go to GenSpark. We're going to go to Den Genspark Designer landing page for Notes app. I want you to create a sample
306. 1:00:23announcement poster and a brand style guideline. one pager
307. 1:00:41for this creative brief. Go back here and see how.
308. 1:00:56All right. Oh, let's see. Okay, those are kind of cool. Make them all as stand alone images. By the way, if you want to
309. 1:01:14play along and make some of these, you can if you want to make some some bunkers,
310. 1:01:28you can drop them in AI learning lab live and share irregular things, which is a feed, right? Is it a feed?
311. 1:01:39So, I'm going to say, yeah, I'll make a feed. Drop your bunker or bunker bunker or um
312. 1:01:57poster ideas here or the end of AI as we know it.
313. 1:02:14party post. Okay. So, there's that. So, you can just reply to that post and if you want to put anything in there, you can do that.
314. 1:02:29If you want to join in, it's the end of the world as we know it. Oh, that one's depressing and cool. Beautiful. [laughter]
315. 1:02:44What prompts one, two, three, and four. Do I have to say next each time? I guess I do. Next.
316. 1:02:59All right. And here's Gen Spark. Upload the concept. The brief says to use it as a starting point. Ah, okay. Fine.
317. 1:03:16So, we've got to go here. Got to go here. We'll copy this. Copy image. Go to GenSpark. Paste it there.
318. 1:04:04Is this thing still doing its thing? Here are the next four backgrounds. But they're not making four, are they? No.
319. 1:04:20You're only making one image when you say you are making four. Can't you just make a bunch
320. 1:04:37of them in a row without me asking? Without me asking.
321. 1:04:56I apologize for the oversight. All right, it's still going. I understand you want all of them generated and ready to go without having
322. 1:05:07to ask for every single one. I will run the remaining 15. Here are the full series. All right. Well, we'll see if it does it. What's
323. 1:05:16this thing doing? Download URL. Run the script. View the image. All right, that's doing its thing. Claude still sucks. [laughter]
324. 1:05:32Close that out. Close this out. What's chat GPT got going on? Finish. I'll revise number two. ran six commands. Okay, this is still working.
325. 1:05:48The four replacement illustrations are ready. I'm keeping number two's existing artwork and layout with larger formally
326. 1:05:54festivist right below party and a clear footer for Google Meet and AI salon. The revised layouts are checked. Look how slow this is.
327. 1:06:12I wonder if it's because I'm on extra high soul 6.1 extra high. The AI reign of error. Eh Harold coming in hot with AI apocalypse in the AI
328. 1:06:24reign of error. I like it. Let's Let's throw those in. Uh some notable fun puns. We want to get into
329. 1:06:44the marketing pieces. AI apocalypse. Oh my god. Are you kidding me?
330. 1:07:07Oh my god, they're horrible. Okay, AI apocalypse. AI reign of error. Those
331. 1:07:25are good. Um, then I'm going to put, "By the way, your new poster designs are some of the worst and most boring
332. 1:07:45designs I've ever seen in my life. It reminds me of when
333. 1:08:04Photoshop came out and everyone fancied themselves a designer.
334. 1:08:21I have an idea for you. Try it again as if you had talent. [laughter]
335. 1:08:37Ah, fantastic there, Bob. All right, let's go over to the GenSpock. See how Gen Spock's doing. Image slot.js JS
336. 1:08:53brand CSS stylesheet. Wow, this thing's working a lot. I I have something to declare.
337. 1:09:08I have something to declare. I'm going to declare it here. I'm going to declare it now. Um,
338. 1:09:23when I came up with the the idea for a party and when the title that popped in my head was the end of AI as we know it, I thought that's
339. 1:09:34funny. Can we go back to stupid AI? Like the fact that all of these AIs are being designed to solve
340. 1:09:49hundred-year-old math problems and find the solution to fusion energy and and understand the secrets of the universe means that you can't
341. 1:10:04make a poster anymore. What the is going on? Look at my hair. AI is failing me. My hair product is
342. 1:10:19failing me. What am I supposed to do with this? We need the common model. We We Yeah, we just need the base model. Chat
343. 1:10:31GBD designs lately have been horrible. What the is happening? I can't stand it. [laughter]
344. 1:10:46I feel thoroughly disrespected by Claude design and it wasn't even my session. It's so bad. All right, back to your
345. 1:10:56regularly scheduled programming. Let's go. We'll go back to trying to make this work. But don't you remember the
346. 1:11:02joy we used to have in here? I'd give it a shitty prompt and it would just make and it would be some version of
347. 1:11:09delightful and janky, but it was like it was quick and it was some version of okay and now everything's got to think about it.
348. 1:11:23Party invitation poster. Is this HTML? Yes. The end of AI as we know it. That's kind of fun. The salon.ai AI. Nice.
349. 1:11:37It's It's a little up. Here's our design. That's kind of cool. That logo is horrible. All right. Is this done? No, it's still
350. 1:11:49thinking. The master thumbnail is too small. Present. Build it. Download design files. Like even Gen Spark design has gotten
351. 1:12:02too complicated. Like I'm just trying to concept here. [sighs] The small versions of these these look
352. 1:12:18like little casser casserole dishes. By the way, if you're on TikTok and you want to see what I'm working on, just go
353. 1:12:27to the uh go to my profile. That'll pop you over to the AI salon. You have to sign up, but it doesn't cost you
354. 1:12:33anything. And then that'll take you into the live stream. So, you can see all of these um horrifically bad horrifically bad um
355. 1:12:48outputs from from AI. So here's Gemini still. I asked it to make 15 images. It said I'll run the remaining 15 images and it generated one.
356. 1:13:09All right. Can Can we count on MidJourney to do some good images one prompt at a time? Can we Can we It's giving me V6.
357. 1:13:22Okay. A candid wide angle. Okay, here we go. We're going to mid journey, people. Uh, I I'll tell you what I'm most frustrated about
358. 1:13:39in the in the old AI before the end of AI as we knew it when AI was just stupid. When it was just like you put in a prompt, you're
359. 1:13:50like, "Hey, could you give me a thing?" And it would go, "Here's a thing." You're like, "Okay, thanks. back then
360. 1:14:02I could do like in in the hour and a half that we have here, I could do like 20 or 30 different iterations of something
361. 1:14:11and then find one we love and then run down that rabbit hole. And I now have to consciously like I'm I'm now realizing that I could
362. 1:14:23have started this out by saying I want you to give me a written description and then one image generated concept
363. 1:14:34and it might have not done all this thinking nonsense but now they have tool use and they're designed to do long
364. 1:14:42thinking exercises and they're designed to solve quantum mechanics and you can't work fast anymore.
365. 1:14:57>> Hey, Kyle. >> Yeah. >> When was the last time you restarted your computer? >> No, this isn't that this isn't about
366. 1:15:07that. Why? What's going on? Are we having audio issues? No, I'm just saying usually that's the solution to most of our problems here.
367. 1:15:15>> No, no, but look at the like look at these designs. Like the designs are just horrible. Like, you know, that one's
368. 1:15:21fine because I said that one was fine. And I said, make these look, you know, less like posters and more like
369. 1:15:26something an a party invite. And we get these like bad Canva like like it it it's so smart that it completely lost the plot of what it was
370. 1:15:37trying to do. So now it's now I I don't know. It isn't this isn't it doesn't have enough RAM. This is like these
371. 1:15:46models are too complicated to reload required to apply changes. All right. >> Well, it sounds like we've got some
372. 1:15:56people contributing in the AI salon. So maybe the human element is where we need to be. >> Yeah, exactly. I think I think that's
373. 1:16:03maybe the case. All right. Verified agent checking. All right, this thing's still working. Oh, wait. I think it might be done.
374. 1:16:15Oh, I see. So, it did the poster and then it did all this stuff. Um, check past. Um, I'm going to say wait why design prototype
375. 1:16:35presented? Build it. new. Let's see content creation chat image.
376. 1:16:52So I think design prototype is is not what I thought it was in Gen Spark. Research fact check call for me. translation download for me.
377. 1:17:09This used to give you like a running It was like a It was like a canvas that it would generate images on. I thought that was
378. 1:17:19the design Gen team super agent slides sheets docs. It's not those prototype code dashboards and CRM chat image.
379. 1:17:38Everything's up now. Everything's overthought overdesigned underdelivering. Okay, those are depressing. Let me turn
380. 1:17:52off my personalized style.
381. 1:18:11Okay. So, here's what we're going to do. We are going to go So, I'm in midjourney right now. So, that prompt gave us this
382. 1:18:16dark, dingy, depressing room. We're going to go to explore. We're going to go to um photography.
383. 1:18:32Um bleak. [laughter] That was not quite right. That's That's too depressing. Let's see.
384. 1:18:47Photography urban Urban will be good. Urban. Okay. So, in Midjourney, you haven't done this before,
385. 1:19:02you can make an image. So, you go to the create tab and you make an image with whatever prompt you got. This is a
386. 1:19:08prompt that Gemini wrote for me and it made this room. Then you can go to the explore tab and what I say photography urban, right?
387. 1:19:17photography urban and I'm on this is on on styles the little styles tab here at the top and then for every one of these styles
388. 1:19:29you can either you know copy the the sref but you can also just say try style and when you say try style it's going to
389. 1:19:35use whatever the last prompt was in this new style and so let's see try Couple of different styles here. We want it to
390. 1:19:52look kind of apocalypsey, but not not too dramatic or it'll just be weird and depressing. So, let's just go through here and grab
391. 1:20:05I don't know, pile of these. Oh, that one's kind of interesting. This is that one.
392. 1:20:22>> [gasps] >> Oh, this is good.
393. 1:20:40Try that one. All right, that's enough. Let's go look at Let's go look at some of what we've created. Okay, there's the just on its own.
394. 1:20:54Those are too weird and fisheye. These are kind of cool. Except we want people to be able to decorate their own. So, we don't want it to be
395. 1:21:06too colorful. That one's kind of interesting. Those are kind of interesting.
396. 1:21:29All right. I don't know if I want to do it that way. Let's go look at the AI learning lab and see what we got going
397. 1:21:34on in here. What you all are doing. This is the first time AI makes me feel nails on a chalkboard and carpet static
398. 1:21:43at the same time in my brain. I think you have to start all over. Delete all of these chats. I think you're right, Nomi.
399. 1:21:53I I just I I'm I'm so blown away by how bad this is. Welcoming you all to my bunker with only toilet paper. That's beautiful. [laughter]
400. 1:22:06The end of AI as we know it. Bunker party. That's kind of cool from Valerie. It's kind of fun.
401. 1:22:27All right. Well, how we doing? We're coming up on time. So I want you to know I'm leaving here depressed
402. 1:22:42because what's what's amazing to me how are the images that I think Gemini is going to be fuse nano banana I think these are fine and
403. 1:22:53functional and I mean we could just tell people to go make your own your own damn bunker. But I, you know, you got to assume that
404. 1:23:06that people aren't going to know what to do. So So they can just grab one of these and use them or they can go they can go decorate
405. 1:23:17their own or they can go make their own. Okay. Claude was a total bust. Chat GBT. All right. It did some better things.
406. 1:23:31It's the end of AI as we know it party. That's kind of fun. Welcome to the AI apocalypse. Formerly AI festivist. Welcome to the AI
407. 1:23:43apocalypse. That's not bad. December 26, noon to midnight Eastern online and Google meet. I mean that that's not horrible.
408. 1:23:53That's not horrible. Got the AI salon logo in there. Sort of. AI salon invites you. It's the Oh, this one's kind of cool, too. Although it's
409. 1:24:04it's a little too fancy pants. The AI reign of error. Oh, I see. This is a design based on the AI reign of error. Interesting.
410. 1:24:14Shelter warming. A shelter warming for the AI apocalypse. Little too busy. AI salon invites you. It's the end of AI
411. 1:24:28as we know it. AI reign of error break in case of AI break out the fun. Oh, in case of AI break out the fun part, formerly AI festivist.
412. 1:24:41So, I would say one and that one and that one are pretty good. And then the original one's kind of fun. Okay.
413. 1:24:56Well people I I was really excited about tonight because I thought
414. 1:25:13we're going to be able to magically create hundreds of variations and things and it's going to be awesome. And uh it wasn't. >> [laughter]
415. 1:25:28>> So, let me get this straight. AI can now solve elite math problems at scale. AI can decompile compiled software and
416. 1:25:42we can reverse engineer any software and make it free for the masses. But if you just wanted to give you a little concept
417. 1:26:00without having to be a design engineer, it doesn't work. It's the end of AI as we know it. Yes,
418. 1:26:16it's the end of AI as we know it. It's the end of AI as we know it. I'm gonna cry. [laughter]
419. 1:26:36No, Emmy, I might need to do some revenge design work this weekend. Yeah, listen. Here's the deal, folks.
420. 1:26:43This was such a bust. If if anyone if you want to run down this rabbit hole. Um you can watch back this to get the
421. 1:26:51design specs. I put it all in there. It's the end of AI as we know it party. AI salon presents. Um formerly AI
422. 1:26:58Festivus. Um, if you've got some clever copy like AI Apocalypse or the the the Reign of Error, AI [laughter] the AI
423. 1:27:08reign of error, if you got clever things like that, feel free to throw them in there. It's December 26th. It's noon to midnight Eastern. Um,
424. 1:27:19you know, 12 hours of partying bunkers. You can have bunker concepts. If you want to throw concepts in the AI salon, just throw them in um
425. 1:27:32the uh the AI learning lab channel. We'll just keep them cordoned off there for a while. I guarantee nothing. I may use stuff. I
426. 1:27:43may not use it. Um but at this point, God, it it it should have been better than this people. All right, I'm leaving. Uh, thanks for
427. 1:27:59hanging out tonight. Peace out. Wait, what? Hey, turkey sandwich. Um, if you're if you're on on TikTok and
428. 1:28:10you wonder what the hell's AI can solve math, but it can't do what? It can't just do like a basic design concept.
429. 1:28:17I used Catch EPT, Claude, Gemini, and GenSpark to try to get it to do some like design concepting for us. Like last
430. 1:28:28year when we were doing the Festivus advertising stuff, GenSpark Designer was brilliant. It made all these killer
431. 1:28:36concepts and ideas really quickly. Chat GPT used to just knock out. Every every single platform right now is overthinking everything.
432. 1:28:49So if you want to do simple work, good luck. I want the old AI back. You did great. There were some really
433. 1:29:02good ones in there. Thank you, Joe. Thank you for the for the for the kind words. Anyway, I'm leaving. I'm going to go suck my thumb.
434. 1:29:13I I will check these things out in the morning. There actually were some decent designs in there, but I don't know what tools to use anymore
435. 1:29:21because none of the tools work like they used to work. And so, yeah. Peace. See y'all later.
