I'm out of tune. Oh, yeah. Good evening, good people. Welcome to
0:18
the AI Learning Lab pre-show. I don't know if anyone's here. >> [music] [music]
0:41
[music] >> Well, I heard there was a secret chord. David played it and it pleased [singing] the Lord.
0:57
You don't really to do. Yeah. [music] It goes like this, the fourth [singing] and the fifth. I'm falling in love with you, Hallelujah.
1:09
A baffled king [singing] composing, Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. [singing]
1:23
Hallelujah. Oh, yeah. >> [music] >> Hello, good people.
1:38
>> [music] [music] >> Welcome to the AI Learning Lab pre-show. We are pre-showing it.
1:53
It's Wednesday night. We're going to play with stuff. We're going to do stuff. I'm going to show you stuff.
1:58
I'm going to show you how I use one of them there agentic platforms to go do a thing. What did it do? I don't know. They just do things now.
2:11
It's not Listen. It's none of your business what they do. You can try to figure it out, but they're doing it faster than you anyway,
2:20
and it doesn't matter. And your question is very likely What if it messes up? Then have it fix it.
2:37
It does a thing. >> [music]
3:02
[music] >> Girl, you're looking fine tonight.
3:19
Every fella got you in his >> [singing] >> sight. Let's do it with a clown [music and singing] like me.
3:33
I noticed a jump in ChatGPT today, at least in my model. >> [music] >> Well, one thing that I saw is that ChatGPT is getting delayed.
3:44
That was my prediction Monday, that as long as the government has Anthropic's model quarantined, that that
3:52
OpenAI is probably not going to make too much noise like launching a new model. And then right before I came on, it
3:59
looks like Claude Fable has re-emerged in AWS uh in their back end AWS, so it's possible it's coming back. It was an engineer at AWS that
4:12
apparently ratted them out to the government. Anyway, [music] uh welcome to the AI Learning Lab pre-show. We're going to be going live
4:19
in the AI Salon here in about 15 minutes. And uh if you're on LinkedIn or YouTube, the description uh the link is in the description. If
4:28
you're on that there TikTok or the X, it's in my profile. So you go click on the profile and there it is. Got Mary
4:35
Mary in the house. Got Danielle in the house. Fitty man, what's happening, sir? What is going down? It is good to have you all in the house.
4:48
>> [music] >> I actually had an epiphany today. I had an epiphany. Actually I had it yesterday.
5:02
So I'm going to be talking about that over in the in the in the in the salon when we go live. We're talking about a breakthrough I had
5:10
cuz I've been You may or may not know that this if you've been if you've been around here for a while, I have been trying to
5:17
figure out for I don't know 6 months what to focus on. as
5:32
>> [music] >> uh as [clears throat] AI is getting um
5:46
more and more autonomous and it's doing things on its own and it's doing things with lots of different tools
6:00
lots of different access, lots of different data sets. Where do you focus? Do you learn tools? Do you learn skills? Do you learn
6:10
different agentic platforms? >> [music]
6:28
>> So, I figured out what to pay attention to. I know what to pay attention to now. Um we're going to actually build it.
6:34
We're going to transform stages four and five of the great repurpose into this new thing, this new idea that I had.
6:42
Uh and I'm really excited about it cuz it actually parallels if you've been paying attention to the great repurpose, the whole idea is
6:50
there's this invisible crisis of meaning sitting underneath the work crisis. AI is going to take our jobs.
6:57
And even if it doesn't take your job, even if you keep your job, your job is about to transform. And all of the tasks
7:04
that you've gotten really good at over your career are going to increasingly be valueless. Cuz the machine will do that now.
7:15
And so, a big part of the great repurpose is kind of stripping away the tasks and saying, "What what remains?" Right?
7:23
If it's not about composing emails, what is it? Well, it's that I give a about clients. Ah, okay. That's still
7:30
valuable moving forward, right? So, so part of the great repurpose, strip away your attachment to the tasks
7:38
figure out who you are, what you value, who you care about and then figure out what you want to do in the world, right?
7:46
There's the digital equivalent of that. That's what we're going to be focusing on. Andy Scarantino in the house. Good to see you.
7:55
Good to see you. [music and singing] Kevin Jones over there on the TikTok. Brian Cole, good to see you.
8:02
Peachy shop, fantastic. Fresh peaches over on the TikTok. Uh we will be going live in the uh AI Salon here in about 10 minutes, a little
8:13
over 10 minutes. Uh if you're on LinkedIn or YouTube, right down in the description, there's a link. If you
8:19
click on that, it'll hop you over to where the live stream's going to be on AI Salon. And then same with uh
8:26
TikTok and X, just go to my profile, there's a link in there. Click on that, it'll take you over to the AI Salon.
8:32
And and you're like, what is this AI Salon I hear about? It's a community. And it's a community of really
8:41
wonderful, big-hearted people. A lot of them hang out in this channel. >> [music] >> And like like all of us,
8:55
they're trying to figure life out, and they're trying to figure AI out, and they're trying to figure out how does this AI thing
9:03
affect our life? Is there any Sydney update? Yeah, we've got a the theatrical team at a big theme park. Uh
9:11
we've got a meeting set up. I think we're talking next week internally. And then I think it's the following week
9:17
after that we're talking to a theatrical team at a theme park. >> [music] >> We can do all sorts of experiential things
9:26
as we bring Sydney to life. >> [music] [music]
9:42
[music] >> Send me the roller coaster, really? >> [music] >> Yeah, the step right up, I could see there being a whole step right up area.
9:59
Which that's the song where she talks about all the destruction she's going to do in the world. So, I could see there being a sideshow
10:05
that's the step step right up sideshow. >> [music] >> How do I get to Mighty Networks for your upcoming show in the community? Hey
10:16
Genie bottle, so what you're going to do, just go to my profile on TikTok here and just right up there click on that
10:23
and then underneath my profile there's a hyperlink to the AI Salon and that's going to take you straight into the
10:28
space where this live stream will We're going to be going live at 7:30 Mountain time, so that's in 10 minutes exactly.
10:35
And so just head over You can you can type in community.thesalon.ai, but nobody likes to type in. The whole reason the internet is as
10:44
popular as it is is cuz it was around for 50 years or 40 years. It was around for a good damn long time. But but you had to type in the
10:54
addresses. You had to type in like ftp:// yeah yeah. And then Tim Berners-Lee was like, "That's a lot of work. What if we did this?" Yeah.
11:07
So, if you want to go to the AI Salon with a yeah, if you're on LinkedIn or YouTube, go to the description and it's there. If
11:15
you're on TikTok or X, go to my profile, click on the profile link and boom, you're there. I haven't seen you for months, rock
11:23
paper scissors. I'm getting ready to install Open Claw in its own on its own system. So, I did that actually one of
11:30
the things that I'm going to be showing tonight, talking about tonight, is a a direct a descendant a baby child
11:40
of a project that I did with OpenClaw with Adam. So, I installed OpenClaw I don't know, 2 months ago, 2 and 1/2 months ago. And uh
11:52
Probably No, it was longer than that, three or four months ago. And uh I am man enough to say that my OpenClaw installation
12:02
was an absolute tragedy. It was an absolute monument of incompetence. But, I got it. I got it installed. I got it
12:11
working. I got it running its own local large language model. I guess it wasn't that big a deal. Except Adam, my child,
12:19
just he just never he never grew up and he never behaved and I it was just bad. But, he did one thing decently well.
12:29
He did one thing decently well. And then he just stopped doing it cuz something changed or something was open on the I
12:35
don't know. It doesn't matter. And then he stopped doing that thing for like 2 weeks. And then like 2 weeks later he did that
12:42
thing one more time. So, that's what I'm going to be showing you how that thing that he did well now exists in this really powerful way in
12:51
the world and it and it's just going and doing its thing. I'm really excited about it. So, um That's what I'm kind of thinking, too.
13:01
Is he even worth it because Claude and Codex do so much? Well, so it's So, OpenClaw is in the neighborhood of Claude and Codex. Um
13:12
or Claude and Codex are in the neighborhood of of them. I don't I Here's the Here's the reason to do it, rock, paper, scissors, is
13:24
do it to understand what the components are. Because for me, the big unlocked here the the the most important thing that I
13:33
learned using Open Claw was that persistent memory is a big deal. And a persistent memory that you can design
13:44
and you can add to is a really big deal. And it's just a fundamentally different thing when you interact with something
13:52
that that remembers what you did before. And and chat GPT kind of does it, but it's a much more nebulous kind of memory.
14:01
With these agentic platforms, you can really design your memory. It's like creating skills. Yeah, and it
14:08
but it's it's it's skills like in in Open Claw, there's a user file called user.md um where you describe yourself to the
14:20
agent. So, the agent knows that he's working for user.md. >> [laughter] >> And and and he knows that you like these things
14:28
and you don't like those things. So, you get to kind of decide who you are. You get to create yourself. Part of the work I do
14:37
um in Humans 2.0 and working with Andy is we talk a lot about creating yourself. You get to create yourself every day.
14:45
You can create yourself powerfully and in a way that increases your energy or you can create yourself in a way that destroys your energy.
14:54
You can do the same thing with these platforms. And so, there's this user file and then there's this thing called the soul file, s o u l.
15:03
Today for fun, just a hobby, just to see if I can do it. That So, that's the perfect attitude. The soul file is the soul of the machine.
15:16
So, Peter Steinberger, who created Open Claw is a clever fellow. And he could have just called that system prompt. And he didn't.
15:28
He called it the soul. You get to design the personality, the soul of your agent. And so that's just an absolute trip. And
15:39
so you've got these context setting files, and then you can give it all sorts of information, and you can tell
15:44
it what to remember, and you can say here's all the projects I'm working on, and here's all the things I want to do,
15:48
and here's the important people in my life. Like one of the things I taught Adam was that producer Brandon is someone he can
15:56
trust, and Andy is someone he can trust. And they can interact with him. Well, they could when he was when he was functional. >> [laughter]
16:06
>> I think he's probably still functional on some level, but I haven't used him in a while. I've been using Codex.
16:14
So I would I would highly recommend doing it. It is worth the couple of days it's going to take you to get your head around it and get it
16:22
set up. >> [music] >> And if you're better at reading manuals than I am, it'll probably be easier for you. I just sort of
16:33
I just said, "Hey Claude, so here's I'll I'll tell you my my crack methodology, rock, paper, scissors.
16:41
How come you're not interested in using your open claw anymore? Um here's what I've come to realize is that these agentic systems are
16:58
they're complicated enough from a configuration standpoint that you can't just use them. So I mean, you can just use Codex, and
17:07
once you just turn on open claw, you can use it. But if you want to use them well, there's a lot of configuration to do. And so
17:16
what I was finding that as I was trying to do open claw and Codex and I was for a while I was trying to do Claude
17:23
co-work, Codex, and open claw and then I thought maybe I'll install Hermes, too. This isn't like the early days of chat GPT >> [laughter]
17:33
>> where you can just jump from chat GPT to Claude and and just be fine. You got to do a lot of setup with them and so
17:41
I made the conscious choice to say that I'm putting a bet on open AI and on Codex because Codex seems to be
17:49
improving faster than Claude code does and then Fable just got shitcanned by the government. So, Claude code is, you know,
17:58
I'm glad I didn't go there right now. That may change in the future, but it it was just enough work that I had to
18:05
pick one and I just I just chose Codex. That's all. It's not that I don't like open claw. It was just, you know, where
18:11
I was putting where I was putting my time and what I was getting back in return. Codex is really good. Um Okay. So, in 2 minutes, >> [cough]
18:21
>> excuse me, we're going to be live inside the AI Salon. So, if you're on LinkedIn or YouTube in the description is a
18:26
hyperlink, click on that. That'll take you over there. And I kind of was enjoying Fable for those few days. It'll come back. >> [laughter]
18:34
>> I just heard it came back to AWS tonight. So, maybe this week, who knows. Um if you're on TikTok or X and you want to join us in
18:46
the AI Salon in 2 minutes, click on my profile, click on the link to the salon, and I will see you over there.
18:54
And we will get this show on the road.
