Description

It's Tuesday. I'm sure nothing has happened in AI, right? PLEASE? Nope, there's some stuff. In a recent AI Learning Lab live session, Kyle Shannon explored Google's latest AI-powered video editing tool integrated within Google Docs. He experimented with the platform's features, including voiceover generation, video clip arrangement, and integration with Google Drive. While impressed by its capabilities as a full-fledged web-based non-linear editor, Kyle also expressed amusement at Google's rapid release of similar products and the platform's occasionally confusing interface. He humorously recounted his attempts to navigate the tool, highlighting its quirks and potential. Beyond the Google tool demo, Kyle delved into broader AI topics, including the importance of "play" in learning AI, emphasizing experimentation across different mediums like image generation and music creation. He encouraged viewers to push beyond perceived skill limitations, viewing AI as a means to augment existing talents and explore new avenues of expression. He also touched upon the evolution of AI, from basic processing to complex generation, and the shift from user to producer mindset when interacting with AI tools. Kyle also promoted upcoming events like the Create Conference for women in AI and his own AI Readiness Project podcast. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

0:19 W Gra desperately heading his old place.
0:23 Dream to discover a new space. build
0:26 himself alive
0:29 inside his basement to side of his
0:33 basement. He's working away on
0:35 displacement.
0:37 What would it take to survive?
0:42 Cuz when you don't cuz when you're done
0:45 with this world,
0:47 [Music]
0:50 you know the next is up to you.
0:52 [Music]
0:55 And for once in his life
0:59 he was tired
1:03 as he learned how to turn with the t.
1:09 [Music]
1:10 This guy was a flare when it came up for
1:13 air
1:16 [Music]
1:23 dramat.
1:24 Data.
1:26 [Music]
1:46 [Music]
1:52 Hey,
1:58 [Music]
2:05 [Music]
2:07 hey, hey.
2:09 [Music]
2:27 Hey, if you I listen I know that one of
2:31 the things that I hear all the time from
2:34 you
2:35 is
2:39 I wish I had another place in the Google
2:41 ecosystem where I could use V3. I I know
2:45 you're always thinking like if only
2:47 there were yet another playground that
2:50 had a completely different interface
2:52 that I could make videos with. Like
2:54 imagine if it was like incorporated into
2:57 like Google Docs. Like why not? Wouldn't
3:01 that be cool? I This is what I know you
3:04 ask for nightly. And night after night
3:07 after night I'm like people Google's not
3:10 made of engineers. They can't just spin
3:13 up random websites that do the exact
3:15 same thing as the seven other websites
3:17 they launched in the past three weeks.
3:28 Yeah. Yeah. There's a whole new [ __ ]
3:31 website.
3:36 Whole new [ __ ] interface.
3:39 [Laughter]
3:40 [Music]
3:42 And here's here's what I know. Here's
3:44 what I know. You're going to be like,
3:45 "Hey, Kyle, how do you use it?"
3:48 I don't know. Producer Brandon just
3:51 dropped it on me. He's he's like, "Go to
3:53 this stupid URL." I'm like, "Well,
3:55 that's fake. It's turns out it's a site
3:58 that's not fake. Looks fake. It's not."
4:07 And and now all of you are like, "Well,
4:10 Kyle,
4:12 do your thing."
4:15 [Music]
4:32 Um, so yeah, we can go look at that.
4:40 I
4:43 [Music]
4:54 don't know.
4:58 [Music]
5:11 [Applause]
5:12 [Music]
5:18 [Applause]

5:21 [Applause]
5:21 [Music]
5:39 Through blue telescope,
5:42 looking at the world tonight through
5:45 blue telescope.
5:48 I wish I may wish I might not see what I
5:52 see.
5:53 She fed all sheets of ice.
5:57 [Applause]
5:58 [Music]
6:01 Looking through this blue telescope
6:05 down a moon struck a road tonight.
6:11 [Music]
6:16 Um,
6:20 what else are we going to do? I don't
6:22 know. My TikTok got hacked. Good news, I
6:26 have 3,000 more followers. I'm picking
6:28 them off one by one. Oh my god. I'm so
6:31 sorry, Silver Fox. But if you start
6:33 trolling us tonight, we'll know what's
6:35 going on.
6:37 Silver Fox goes from being poetic to
6:40 being obnoxious.
6:44 Oh, you you think you're an AI expert,
6:46 do you? Oh, yeah. Show us your
6:49 qualifications. Did you go to MIT? Are
6:51 you a Stamford mathematician? Then what
6:54 are you even doing here? You have no
6:56 right talking about artificial
6:57 intelligence if you're not a TensorFlow
7:00 optimizer.
7:03 And that's just Pate talking to me. You
7:06 know, you understand how it is. It's
7:08 It's rough up here. It's rough up here.
7:11 I got the artists calling me a
7:13 talentless hack. I got the technologist
7:16 calling me a talentless hack. I got my
7:19 wife calling me a talentless hack. Wait
7:21 a minute.
7:26 [Music]
7:31 I'm lowkey evil.
7:36 [Music]
7:50 You call that guitar playing? The
7:53 musician's calling me a talentless hack.
7:56 Like, what is the what's the thread
7:58 here? What's the through line?
8:01 But I still think I'm talented.
8:06 I
8:17 There there was a time not so long ago.
8:24 [Music]
8:34 [Applause]
8:40 [Music]
8:44 Every time I say it now, get that look
8:48 in mine.
8:49 [Music]
8:50 Every time I see your mouth, I hear that
8:54 smile.
8:58 Am I supposed to turn on my autotapper
9:00 for this? Don't waste your autotaps on
9:03 this. No. No. This is I want you getting
9:07 actual carpal tunnel. You should be
9:09 tapping the heart button like a little
9:12 mad demon.
9:15 It hurts. Keep going, Sally. My grandpa.
9:20 I can't go any faster.
9:28 [Music]
9:30 Oh, good lord. Good lord. Good people.
9:35 Never a dull moment here at the AI
9:37 learning lab. Welcome. My name's Kyle
9:39 Shannon if you're new here. Anybody new
9:41 here? Nah, this is all oldies. 19
9:43 people. This is We all know each other.
9:47 [Music]
10:06 Isn't music weird? Like this chord on
10:08 its own
10:11 sounds wrong, but if you put it in this
10:13 sequence,
10:15 [Music]
10:20 it sounds great.
10:24 [Music]
10:32 What's up, K Wolfman Clint? Haven't seen
10:36 you in a while. I actually saw you
10:37 Wolfman Clint. I was on I was on the Tik
10:40 Tok and I'm flipping through the Tik Tok
10:42 and there's some live there, some dude.
10:46 And he's like, "Hey, Wolfman Clint." And
10:48 I'm like, "Wait, is that the Wolfman
10:50 Clint I know?" And sure enough, I look
10:52 up, there's your little logo. You were
10:54 in some live session with some dude.
10:58 I didn't stick around. I had I'm busy. I
11:01 had like other Tik Toks to view. Like
11:04 can't just stick around on these Tik Tok
11:06 channels. I mean, unless you do. No
11:10 judgment.
11:11 [Music]
11:20 YouTube question.
11:23 YouTube user. Hey, Kyle here. New here.
11:26 Loving the music. Great. So, just to be
11:28 clear, this is not a music channel. I'm
11:31 glad you're liking it. The the music is
11:33 really just as as I get the channel
11:35 warmed up to get into my live. It's
11:37 really just to allow people to sort of
11:38 get in and get settled. You know, heat
11:40 up your nachos in the air fryer and
11:42 things like that. Um, all right.
11:46 Hey, Kyle, how's your script coming
11:47 along? The the musical. So, really,
11:50 really good. Um,
11:53 so couple of things. Um,
11:57 I was in San Francisco recently,
12:00 went to a birthday party for a dear
12:02 friend and I met this remarkable woman
12:05 who's just like, you know how sometimes
12:07 you meet people and they're just like,
12:10 "Holy [ __ ] she's one of those and just
12:14 like really cool career, just [ __ ]
12:16 brilliant, centered, strong, like
12:21 killer energy. Well, she knows a lot of
12:24 people, so um
12:28 so we're talking about doing something
12:30 together and then I told her, "Oh, by
12:31 the way, I have a musical, too."
12:34 She's she's like, "Who are you?" Um and
12:38 I said it was a musical about AI. And uh
12:40 she's like, "Okay, that's intriguing."
12:42 And so we we met about it two days ago.
12:45 Yeah, two days ago. And uh she really
12:49 dug it. She's like, "This is really
12:50 good." So, um, so we'll see.
12:56 So, so, so we ain't dead yet.
13:00 [Music]
13:03 I actually was thinking tonight,
13:15 I was thinking the other day when I was
13:16 talking to her cuz she was she was like
13:18 asking me the origin story and I told
13:21 her I told her about this channel and
13:24 and it it was March 18th, 2024 when when
13:29 I made that song that I was like, "Holy
13:32 [ __ ] this needs to be a Broadway
13:33 musical." Um,
13:36 and I found that video, I found that
13:38 moment and I was thinking I need to put
13:40 together like a a PowerPoint
13:42 presentation
13:44 that is that shows all of what we have
13:46 cuz we've got a lot we like the musical
13:49 was a lot farther along than she thought
13:51 it would be.
13:55 [Music]
14:08 [Music]
14:12 [Applause]
14:13 [Music]
14:21 [Applause]
14:23 All right, enough comedy. any jokes.
14:27 I saw an amazing I saw an amazing Tik
14:30 Tok today. It was this this young woman
14:34 on Tik Tok and she's like, "Did you know
14:37 that Steve Martin is like a well-known
14:40 comedian? I just thought he was a banjo
14:42 player."
14:46 She discovered Steve Martin through his
14:48 banjo music and has been a huge fan of
14:51 his banjo music and just discovered he
14:54 used to make jokes.
14:59 I [ __ ] love young people. Although it
15:02 does make you feel [ __ ] old. What
15:04 else did I hear? I heard another thing.
15:06 Someone didn't hadn't heard of something
15:08 like how have you not heard of that? But
15:10 whatever. It's like when you're old,
15:14 you're old, man. I remember the first
15:16 time I actually felt old. It was
15:18 probably 1997.
15:22 And I was in with a group of people at
15:25 agency.com
15:28 and
15:29 we were talking about culture and things
15:32 like that. And I said, "Agency.com, you
15:35 know, it's like
15:38 I said, it's it's it's like it's it's
15:42 about the people. It's like Soilent
15:44 Green
15:46 just [ __ ] crickets. People just
15:48 stared at me like, "Huh?"
15:52 It's like, you know, the movie where
15:55 they made food out of PE. No, no one. No
15:58 one. That was that was that was that was
16:02 the first in a series of uh moments in
16:04 my life where I'm like, "Oh yeah, you're
16:07 old." Then it'll happen more and more.
16:09 Exactly. It just keeps going.
16:15 Oh man, I don't know where to begin
16:17 tonight. I don't know where where to
16:19 begin. I guess we could begin with this
16:20 Google thing. Th this is like th
16:26 it's impressive as it is annoying.
16:29 like like the company is so big
16:33 that that they're literally spinning up
16:35 competing products using the models they
16:39 developed. I I don't know.
16:42 It's
16:48 I mean I guess that's another sign of
16:50 being old because it's like if you
16:52 remember when Google was born it was
16:54 like a young scrappy startup and it's
16:57 just a big old corporate fart monster
17:01 now. It's like, you know, it's just like
17:04 it's just like a a couple of uh, you
17:07 know, bad meetings away from being
17:09 Microsoft.
17:12 Which, by the way, I I think I talked
17:14 about it here. Did you hear that Elon
17:16 Musk,
17:18 is that Thunder? That must be Thunder.
17:20 Elon Musk is is spinning up a new
17:23 company inside XAI called Macro hard,
17:27 which is which is a troll on Microsoft,
17:30 but it's basically he thinks that he can
17:33 recreate Microsoft, the entirety of
17:36 Microsoft with AI agents.
17:39 Absolutely crazy. I remember the film. I
17:42 think we kind of liked it. Breakfast at
17:44 Tiffany's.
17:47 Is this being generated by AI right now?
17:49 Yeah, exactly. I'm I'm I'm I used to
17:51 make the joke I was Chad GPT5, but it's
17:54 out now. And it's it's not as good as
17:55 me, let me tell you that
17:59 on the stupid comedy parts. All the
18:02 other stuff, it's way better than me.
18:04 But the stupid comedy still got that
18:06 [ __ ] locked down.
18:15 I don't know what to say, people.
18:20 Oh man,
18:24 I missed the Google thing. What's the
18:26 headline? Oh, okay. So, here's the
18:27 headline. If you go to
18:30 vidsvs.new,
18:32 [Music]
18:35 just go there right now. Type it into
18:37 your little internet machine and it's
18:40 going to take you to
18:42 this here place.
18:47 Mm-
18:55 um
18:59 it's like a whole
19:02 and then and then notice the URL
19:04 redirect. So it redirects to
19:06 docs.google.com/videos
19:10 black bar. Yes, sir sir. Yes, sir. So,
19:12 listen. Producer Brandon told me he was
19:14 going to be busy launching a product
19:16 tonight and he wouldn't be able to be on
19:17 the black bar thing. I [ __ ] I [ __ ]
19:20 miss putting the black bar up for like
19:22 three seconds and he's like, "Black
19:24 bar."
19:26 I appreciate the attention, producer
19:28 Brandon. I really do. It's good for the
19:31 people. Um,
19:34 so this looks like, as far as I can
19:37 tell, this looks like a full-on
19:40 web-based nonlinear editor that has VO
19:42 built into it. So you can arrange things
19:46 and and it and this lives within Chat GP
19:49 or within Google Docs. And so like if
19:51 you click on for example uploads,
19:56 all of these uploads here are files off
19:58 my Google Drive.
20:03 I don't know why I can't. They've got
20:05 their thumbnails all [ __ ] up.
20:08 But um
20:11 but holy [ __ ] it's like it's like fully
20:13 integrated into Google Docs. So all my
20:16 media that's there is there. And then I
20:19 guess I can just take
20:23 Wait, those are the wrong aspect ratio.
20:25 Let me go grab
20:28 I think these are just images.
20:36 All right. So, there's a dude. So, let's
20:38 let's turn let's ve him. How do I ve
20:41 him? Oh, here we go. Um,
20:47 this young
20:49 man
20:53 says,
20:56 "Dude,
20:59 it's like
21:03 I mean,
21:09 um, what is
21:12 soilent
21:14 green.
21:18 You're weird, old man.
21:23 All right.
21:25 Oh, but it says plus image. Upload an
21:27 image. Is it going to let me?
21:30 Wait, can I do this here? Edit image.
21:34 Animation.
21:37 Format. Let's see.
21:40 Format options. Animation.
21:45 How do I
21:47 I'm so confused.
21:50 All right. Well, let me create that and
21:51 see what it does. I think it's just
21:53 going to make a fake a fake kid. It's
21:56 not going to do my kid. I want my kid. I
21:58 want this kid.
22:01 This is one of our new uh we we we I
22:04 just created 60 AI avatars uh for Story
22:07 Vine for our our nonprofit product. And
22:11 this is one of them.
22:15 Um,
22:17 you can close this panel. We'll let you
22:18 know when it's done.
22:24 Format scene arrange tools
22:28 arrange. And listen, I know if you're
22:31 new here, listen, you're new here.
22:32 You'll be like, why is he demoing a
22:34 product he doesn't actually know how to
22:36 use? Wouldn't it be more prudent if he
22:39 actually took the time to learn the
22:41 applications before he tried to teach
22:42 us? I mean, this is called the AI
22:44 learning lab and I came here to learn
22:47 and I would expect that my instructor
22:48 had some semblance of competence when it
22:51 comes to application education.
22:54 Yeah, but that's not this channel.
22:58 You see what I'm saying?
23:01 It's a different kind of education. All
23:03 right. No, that's a totally different
23:06 dude.
23:06 >> Dude, it's like I mean what is Soylent
23:10 Green? You're a weird old man.
23:13 >> Dude, it's like I mean,
23:17 >> can I Dude,
23:19 dude,
23:20 >> shut up.
23:22 I want to I want this to be in VO. Can I
23:25 do that?
23:27 Can I
23:30 show timing? How do I make him talk?
23:37 animation. No. Although the animation's
23:40 kind of cool. Like you just click on
23:42 these things and it zooms in and zooms
23:43 out. Slide left, slide right. It's just
23:46 inventing itself. Oh, you can make it
23:49 breathe.
23:50 Zoop zoop zoop zoop.
23:55 Zoom out fast. Zoom in fast.
24:00 Nothing. Loop.
24:03 Flicker,
24:05 hover,
24:08 fade.
24:13 Huh? Wiggle.
24:18 Yeah, this is like a fullon
24:22 Canva
24:23 Canva attack.
24:25 [Laughter]
24:30 Um, VO edit prompt.
24:35 Continue.
24:39 Inspiration plus image.
24:42 Create content from images. Agree. I
24:45 won't use a bad image. But but now I've
24:48 got to go to my desktop. Oh, you're not
24:49 seeing that. It It popped up my desktop
24:52 thing. So, can I I can't go to these
25:02 I'm so confused.
25:18 Crop image. Copy.
25:20 Let me go here. Go new.
25:25 Oh, maybe I'll put this dude in. Let's
25:27 let's make one of these plus.
25:30 So we'll go um a i
25:36 contains ai.
25:39 Is this my new
25:53 extended
26:01 All right, we'll we'll do that one.
26:12 A man with a large allseeing
26:17 eye
26:19 talks
26:20 makes a joke.
26:24 makes a joke
26:26 about dry eye.
26:31 Let's see how Vio, let's see how you do
26:33 here. All right, this should be good.
26:36 Um, any questions? Any thoughts? Like I
26:39 know I know watching this must be read
26:43 the [ __ ] manual. No, never. Never. I
26:47 will never read the manual. Never. And I
26:50 could go systematically through the uh
26:52 through the menu items, but that just
26:55 seems like learning. I'm here to play.
27:01 Um
27:03 I I'm really just I I'm a little
27:05 flabbergasted by this that they have
27:07 this they just sort of dropped this tool
27:10 that's like they made a really big
27:13 production out of
27:15 video.google, Google,
27:18 which is the
27:20 video editor that they created for
27:22 filmmakers that had early access to VO3.
27:26 And so I assumed,
27:30 you know what happens when you assume? I
27:32 assumed
27:35 they would
27:37 keep developing that. They haven't. It
27:40 hasn't changed a bit.
27:43 Oh, flow.google. That's what I meant.
27:45 Flow.goo. Google. What did I say? I said
27:47 something else. But flow.goole. If you
27:50 go to flow.google, that's a shitty
27:53 version of this. Well, it's a it's only
27:56 for stitching video clips together.
28:00 All right. So, let's
28:01 >> my athomeologist.
28:03 >> Insert.
28:10 Play.
28:12 I said, doc, it's the only one I've got.
28:19 My opthalmologist says I have dry eye.
28:23 I said, "Doc, it's the only one I've
28:25 got.
28:32 [Laughter]
28:36 Oh my god. People, people, people,
28:39 people. What are we going to do with the
28:42 [ __ ] internet?
28:44 Everyone's a [ __ ] comedian.
28:48 Everyone. Yes. All right. Format. Um,
28:53 can I turn this into a six a 9 by6
28:56 video? Probably not.
29:03 View. Insert. Format.
29:07 Scene.
29:10 Tools.
29:12 Notification settings. No. How do I
29:23 [Music]
29:24 [Applause]
29:32 background
29:34 AI video clip uh
29:38 tools?
29:42 Yeah, this is this is a fullon
29:45 [ __ ] video editor. It's unbelievable.
29:54 My opthalmologist says I have dry eye.
29:57 I said, "Doc, it's the only one I've
30:00 got."
30:07 Okay, whatever.
30:12 Okay, I can't I can't anymore. I just
30:14 can't I can't do it. I can't
30:19 I can't do it.
30:21 Get in my belly.
30:27 Like we're probably at the point now
30:30 where if you're like you make an Austin
30:32 Powers joke, people are like, "What?
30:38 Who? Who's Austin Powers? Is that He's
30:41 like from Austin, Texas." No.
30:45 You know,
30:47 two block Tom. What is this? This is
30:50 Well, here's what's funny. This is a
30:52 channel that purports to be about
30:54 education.
30:59 Isn't that hilarious? Fantastic.
31:02 Fantastic. No, seriously. Uh, people
31:05 come from all over. They come from We've
31:08 got people that come from the other side
31:09 of the world. They come from Australia
31:10 to learn
31:13 Never taught a thing.
31:15 Jokes on them.
31:24 Oh, behave
31:26 from Texas.
31:28 [Laughter]
31:31 Oh my god. Tell them what they've won.
31:35 Um,
31:37 so there's a new version of Gamma out.
31:41 Like some other news today, like here
31:42 here's one that's actually really really
31:45 important and powerful
31:48 if it works
31:51 is that Google today announced
31:55 a a payment protocol
31:58 for MCPs.
32:01 And if you're like, wait, what what are
32:03 MCPS?
32:05 So MCP stands for model context
32:07 protocol. And it basically is sort of
32:09 like a a weird kind of API on top of an
32:12 API that lets you have your large
32:16 language model talk to a website. And so
32:19 what Google came out with today is a
32:22 payment protocol
32:24 that so you can basically say to your
32:26 large language model, hey, go to that
32:28 thing and buy a thing and probably use
32:32 your Google wallet to to make that
32:35 transaction without having to do any
32:37 programming, without having to do any
32:38 integration, right? That's like it's
32:40 just shit's just going to work. all the
32:43 MCP stuff. If you don't know what it is,
32:46 if if you do know what it is, but
32:48 haven't tried it yet, don't worry. It's
32:49 all just it's all still janky pieces of
32:52 [ __ ] If you're a developer, go learn
32:54 it.
32:56 But but us us non-developers, we don't
33:00 need to
33:02 knowing that it exists is is cool
33:04 because what's coming is cool. You're
33:07 going to be able to have your chat GPT
33:09 go talk to any any website easily. Um,
33:12 it's just we don't really have
33:13 applications for that yet.
33:15 Um,
33:19 trying to think what else. A new Gamma
33:21 came out, which is the new which is the
33:24 uh like the presentation creator. That's
33:27 really good. Gamma 3.0 came out. So, I
33:29 figure we'll go play with that a little
33:30 bit.
33:31 Um,
33:34 worth $1 million.
33:41 Oh yeah, this is a fun one. I'll tell
33:42 you a fun one.
33:45 So on this here channel
33:49 tonight's Tuesday, not Monday.
33:52 Probably Thursday of last week.
33:57 Oh no, no, it was earlier than that. So
34:00 maybe the week before. Anyway, whatever.
34:03 It doesn't matter. on this channel.
34:05 I was asking Chat GPD to come up with a
34:09 like 20 side hustles that didn't require
34:12 much investment, right, to get going,
34:15 just to see what it came up with. And
34:17 one of the things it came up with was a
34:20 photography walk. And I used to be a
34:23 photo I am a photographer, but I just
34:25 haven't taken pictures in a long time
34:26 because I've been obsessed with this AI
34:28 [ __ ] And
34:31 so I thought, "Oh, that's kind of cool."
34:32 And then like what immediately hit me is
34:36 I've had some really amazing moments
34:37 where I've been out just with my
34:41 my iPhone and I take a picture of
34:44 something and then I I drop that picture
34:46 straight into chat GPT and I I do
34:48 something. I make some art out of it or
34:50 I import it into MidJourney or you know
34:52 do something like that.
34:54 And so I came up with this concept of a
34:56 prompt walk. And a prompt walk is like a
34:59 photo walk with AI lessons. And so, you
35:03 know, you go to a location, you take all
35:05 your pictures, and now we're going to
35:06 turn them into Renaissance paintings.
35:07 Now we're going to turn them into
35:08 stained glass cathedrals. Now we're
35:10 going to turn them into portals to
35:11 another world. Now we're going to turn
35:13 them into poetry or, you know, get the
35:15 backstory or whatever it might be. And
35:18 that was pretty cool. And so I called it
35:20 the 303 prompt walk.
35:22 And in in the AI salon mastermind, um
35:26 I'm co-hosting a um a 4-week prototyping
35:32 sprint with Cindy [ __ ] So Cindy [ __ ] um
35:35 heads up the the prototyping club inside
35:37 the AI mastermind. So the AI mastermind
35:40 is a subscription level of the AI salon
35:43 and it's 20 bucks a month and you get
35:44 access to all the clubs and all all the
35:46 stuff that we do within the mastermind.
35:48 So you get access to this this thing
35:51 And so the four-week sprint that we're
35:53 in, we had our second meeting today. The
35:54 four-week sprint that we're in is to
35:56 make a micro course. And so I've been
35:59 using the sprint to make a micro course
36:02 about the 303 prompt walk. And then
36:05 today at my office,
36:08 someone who's got some sort of Denver
36:11 business networking group was hosting a
36:14 speed B2B networking event.
36:19 And I'm normally too busy to go to those
36:21 those things, but it was literally right
36:23 around the corner from my office and
36:24 they had free sandwiches. And so I'm
36:26 like, "Free food ain't bad." And I'm
36:29 like, "Please don't have this be just
36:31 like financial advisors and HR people."
36:34 And sure enough, I introduced myself and
36:36 they're like, "Ha."
36:38 And then um financial adviser, financial
36:42 advisor, um HR person, financial
36:45 adviser. Uh so so they just went down
36:49 the line and then like this guy on the
36:51 very end of the thing his business is he
36:55 does in-person walking tours in Denver.
37:01 Um it's it's his whole business and he's
37:05 got he's got all these people that do
37:07 these walking tours for him.
37:10 And so I met him. We we did our little
37:11 speed networking thing. I said, "Funny
37:13 you should be here because I just came
37:16 up with this this thing called the the
37:17 303 prompt walk." And I told him what it
37:19 was. He's like, "That's really cool."
37:22 So,
37:24 of of all the people to be there and and
37:26 like I I so
37:29 like I I actually had a meeting at that
37:31 time that canceled 15 minutes before and
37:34 then I was going to not go to that thing
37:36 and I'm like, "Ah, don't be a wet
37:37 blanket. Just go to the networking
37:39 event." And then I meet a guy that's got
37:42 a walking tour business. So maybe I'll
37:45 get my marketing handled for me.
37:49 How was the food? It was dry sandwiches.
37:52 It was not the most inspired menu.
37:56 Um,
38:01 they have bottled water,
38:03 dry roast beef and ham sandwiches
38:08 with wilted lettuce.
38:13 And it was that bread that was so thick
38:15 you can't bite through it. So, you got
38:16 to take like one half of it off. And
38:18 then you're trying not to put your hands
38:20 all over the tomatoes and lettuce that's
38:23 all wilted.
38:26 But other than that,
38:29 it was good.
38:31 But it was, you know, was it was it was
38:33 a it was a fun event. They were nice
38:35 people.
38:36 Um,
38:42 all right. We come for the hair. Oh,
38:44 how's the hair doing tonight? There you
38:46 go. Yeah. See,
38:48 it's it's not too bad. It's behaving
38:51 itself.
38:52 Um,
38:54 I guess let's go play with gamma. Let's
38:56 go play with gamma. Gamma. Gamma.
39:13 Anybody have any questions about AI,
39:15 future of work, anything? Um, hair
39:18 management. Hair product management.
39:23 I could have done better on the menu
39:25 than that. Geez.
39:28 On what? On that site. Yeah, that site
39:31 was pretty bad. Wait, why is my Tik Tok
39:34 frozen? I see.
39:40 Gamma app. Yeah.
39:45 Mhm.
39:46 [Music]
39:51 All right. It didn't spin me off to a
39:52 new thing. Great. All right.
39:56 [Music]
39:58 Great.
40:02 >> Oh, hey. What's up? We started Gamma to
40:05 make it easy for you to share your ideas
40:07 visually because the old way of creating
40:09 presentations, well, sucked.
40:12 staring at the blank page and formatting
40:14 slides for hours. We all hated it. So,
40:16 we built Gamma to tackle these problems.
40:19 The first version of Gamma was an
40:21 alternative to PowerPoint. Then, in
40:23 2023, we became the most popular AI
40:26 presentation tool in the world. And
40:29 today, we're launching Gamma 3.0,
40:33 a visual storytelling platform for your
40:35 ideas.
40:37 I'm going to share three massive
40:39 updates. First up, we're introducing
40:41 Gamma Agent. We want Gamma to feel like
40:45 you have your very own design partner,
40:47 and we built Agent to intelligently edit
40:49 with you. You can ask agent to make
40:52 design improvements for you, like
40:53 reviewing your deck, offering
40:55 suggestions, or just redesign the whole
40:57 thing in one prompt. Agent can also work
41:00 with any content. So, if you have a link
41:02 or a screenshot, ask Gamma to
41:04 incorporate and visualize them in your
41:06 slides. And of course, we've also built
41:08 Agent to be connected to the web, so it
41:11 can search the internet for any
41:12 information you want cited in your
41:14 gamas. Agent can also use the full
41:17 visual range of gamma. We've added an
41:19 explosion of ways to visualize your big
41:21 ideas, and we're constantly adding more.
41:24 Each visualization adapts to your
41:26 content and style. So, with Agent, you
41:29 can make sweeping design edits, turn any
41:31 material into visuals, and add context
41:34 to your stories. Altogether, this saves
41:37 hours of dreaded manual work. This is
41:39 the kind of intelligence that can
41:41 transform how we share ideas.
41:43 >> Wait, there's there's Lindsay May. How
41:47 can I get better, please?
41:54 That is that is the best question. How
41:57 can I get better, please? Um,
42:00 how do I get to Carnegie Hall practice?
42:03 Um, get better at what I assume you mean
42:06 get better at AI. How do I get better at
42:08 AI? And and it's actually it's kind of
42:11 like the Carnegie Hall answer. Um,
42:13 practice. Um, I read there was a post on
42:17 um LinkedIn that 10,000 prompts is the
42:20 new 10,000 hours, which if you know the
42:22 famous Malcolm Glad Gladwell popularized
42:25 this idea of you need to put in 10,000
42:28 hours to be good at something. Um,
42:33 I I think one of the one of the best
42:35 ways to get better at AI
42:38 is
42:39 this going to sound really
42:40 counterintuitive.
42:43 Stop trying so hard
42:46 to be to to have AI be the master of
42:51 your work
42:53 and just start playing with AI. Start
42:55 playing with tools that you normally
42:57 wouldn't play with. So, if you're really
42:59 good with words and you're using AI to
43:01 help make your emails better, go make
43:04 images. If you're really good with art
43:06 and design, go make words. Go make
43:08 music.
43:10 Go play, excuse me, with something like
43:12 gamma.
43:16 Um,
43:19 just start playing.
43:22 And what will happen is
43:26 you'll discover that you can do things
43:30 that you didn't think you'd be able to
43:32 ever do. And it'll open up a part of
43:34 your brain in a weird kind of way where
43:36 you're like, well, wait a minute. I'm
43:38 not talented at music, but now I can
43:41 make songs. What do I do with this
43:43 information? Right? So, there's this
43:47 one of the things that AI does. Okay, so
43:50 so this is a this is a new kind of model
43:53 that I'm working with
43:56 as humans.
44:02 We put ourselves in boxes
44:05 and the box that we put oursel in is the
44:08 limitation
44:10 the gaps in our skills and our
44:13 knowledge.
44:15 Right? So, if you grew up and you were
44:17 really good with ideiation and then
44:20 you're a good ideator and and you get
44:22 into situations where you're good at
44:24 ideiating, but you're not good at
44:25 writing and you're not good at planning,
44:28 you're not good at math and you're not
44:30 good at programming.
44:34 Well, now you can be.
44:38 And so,
44:41 the answer to the question, how do I get
44:43 better? which I it's just an awesome
44:45 question and maybe you're asking how do
44:47 you get better in general that's just
44:49 like look within
44:52 look within and practice
44:56 but I think what it is with AI is to
44:59 recognize that
45:02 the limit the box that you put yourself
45:05 in based on your known gaps in knowledge
45:09 and skills
45:11 is actually irrelevant. anymore.
45:15 You actually those gaps no longer exist.
45:18 The 10,000 hours thing was very real.
45:21 Like if you wanted to good at get good
45:23 at 3D modeling,
45:26 you'd have to put in a lot of time in 3D
45:29 modeling software and and if you weren't
45:32 visual, like maybe you could get the
45:34 technical parts, but you just couldn't
45:36 make stuff that looked good. or if you
45:38 were super visual but you weren't good
45:39 with the technical stuff, you could make
45:41 stuff that looked good but was a bad 3D
45:43 model and like broke in all sorts of
45:45 situations.
45:47 So you had to put in massive amounts of
45:49 time to level up in one area
45:52 of expression, right? That's no longer
45:56 true. So I think that the the the best
46:00 way to get better faster is to do [ __ ]
46:04 that you know you can't do.
46:07 I know I'm not a programmer. Go Vibe
46:10 Code. I know I'm not an illustrator. I'm
46:13 horrible at music. I can't keep a beat.
46:15 Go to Sunno and start writing songs.
46:17 Make an album.
46:19 Because it'll break your [ __ ] brain.
46:24 Like like it it'll literally break your
46:26 brain. Like you're like, "Wait,
46:28 I know I can't do that. I
46:32 stepdaddy told me I couldn't do that.
46:35 I've convinced myself I can't do you
46:37 mean I can do that now?
46:40 Well, I've got all these stories I've
46:42 always wanted to tell. You mean I can
46:44 just go tell them? And the answer is
46:46 yes. So that my answer is go play. Go
46:50 play
46:52 and like don't [ __ ] stop
46:55 and and take the pressure off yourself
46:57 of like I've got to learn AI,
47:02 you know? Maybe we maybe change the name
47:04 of the channel to the AI Playing Lab.
47:12 I I think I think with AI play is
47:14 actually is actually the serious thing
47:17 to do.
47:19 If all you're trying to do is improve
47:22 the in the efficiency of what you
47:24 currently do,
47:27 you're not thinking about what you might
47:29 be able to do, which is way beyond what
47:31 you think you can do. So anyway,
47:35 all right.
47:38 Hal, are you watching my computer? I'm
47:40 3D modeling. It's really funny.
47:46 All right.
47:53 Wendy Mill Wendy will of Meta. Yes, I'll
47:56 just do it. Good. Yeah, just do it. like
48:00 like it's I I mean it it is it's that
48:03 cliche Nike Nike thing campaign, but
48:07 it's like
48:12 how computers have
48:14 acted historically
48:17 is that the thing that they're really
48:21 good at is taking what we do today and
48:24 making it more efficient.
48:27 But they couldn't do much beyond that.
48:29 They were processors. They were
48:31 computers. They would compute. We would
48:33 give them data. They would process that
48:35 data and that they would produce a
48:37 predictable output.
48:39 The logic the logic in the code. That's
48:41 not the way large language models work.
48:44 You give them a prompt in English and
48:46 they
48:48 have this weird probability prob
48:51 probability
48:53 token predicting engine
48:56 that grabs fragments of knowledge and
48:58 somehow assembles them into something
49:00 that makes sense. It's actually
49:02 generating
49:04 new things based on your prompts. And I
49:08 know there's people in the comments here
49:10 are going to be trolling me about it
49:12 can't possibly make anything new or
49:14 novel. It's just a token prediction
49:16 engine. It's a stochcastic parrot. It's
49:20 the world's greatest plagiarism machine.
49:24 Unless you actually use this stuff. And
49:28 then what you realize is
49:31 the AIs aren't prompting themselves.
49:35 You're prompting the AI. And you can
49:37 prompt the AI in one of two ways. You
49:39 can prompt it like a vending machine,
49:41 which I think is what most people do.
49:43 I'm going to put in a prompt, like I put
49:44 in a quarter, and I'm going to expect it
49:46 to give me brilliance back. Write me a
49:48 LinkedIn article. Quit. Oh, that's
49:51 boring and predictable and bad writing,
49:54 and why are there so many m dashes,
49:56 right?
49:58 And then you're disappointed with AI.
50:00 But that's not what AI is good at. AI is
50:02 not a genius.
50:05 AI is literally a mirror. It's a
50:09 reflector of humanity. And so what you
50:11 put in it, it reflects back at you. So
50:14 if you put in a boring [ __ ] prompt,
50:16 you get back a boring [ __ ] answer.
50:21 But if what you do is you say, "Hey,
50:23 here's who I am. Here's what I'm
50:25 passionate about. Here's the thing I'm
50:27 trying to create. Here's why it's
50:28 important to me. Here's the kind of
50:30 customer I'm going for. Here's the kind
50:32 of output that would make me happy.
50:35 That thing it gives you back is not
50:37 going to be boring and abstract. It's
50:39 going to be some reflection of what you
50:41 put in it. And then you're going to look
50:43 at it
50:45 and and like Rick Rubin in the recording
50:47 studio, you're going to go, "Huh, that
50:50 song makes me feel orange."
50:53 And the musicians are going to not know
50:55 what the [ __ ] you're talking about. And
50:56 then they're going to go re-record for
50:58 six hours and make a better song. You
51:01 can do the exact same thing with AI.
51:03 Nah, it's not quite right. I want it to
51:05 be more Can you make it more rounder?
51:10 And it'll rewrite something that'll be
51:12 more rounder. And at some point, you
51:14 will give it a prompt that will come
51:17 back at you like, "Oh my god, that's my
51:19 idea, but better."
51:23 That shift is [ __ ] magic.
51:30 When you shift from being a user and
51:33 treat AI like a vending machine
51:36 to flip into the role of being a
51:38 producer where it's your job to have the
51:40 idea. It's your job to know what good
51:42 looks like and then it's your job to
51:45 hold the AI accountable for giving you
51:48 good work. And don't [ __ ] let up on
51:50 it until it does.
51:53 And it's [ __ ] maddening
51:56 because it'll give you [ __ ] that looks
51:57 really good on the surface and then the
51:59 minute you look at it, you're like, "Ah,
52:00 it's not all that good."
52:02 Well, don't stop there. Don't assume it
52:05 failed.
52:07 Just treat it like a shitty intern at
52:09 your office. Uh, you kind of missed the
52:12 mark there, bucko.
52:14 Uh, really? Yeah, that sucks. Oh, tell
52:18 me what not sucks looks like. Oh, [ __ ]
52:22 Now I got to think about what not sucks
52:24 looks like. Uh
52:27 that's your job. When you when you shift
52:29 that mindset, everything will change.
52:31 You'll get really good. All right.
52:34 When I get a great response from my
52:36 input, I feel dumb. I'm like, "Wow, so
52:38 much better than my mind." Well, you
52:40 know what's funny, Fubsy? I
52:43 There is absolutely an ego component to
52:46 this.
52:47 There is absolutely
52:50 like for me it happened when um GPT01
52:54 the first reasoning engine came out
52:57 I realized that I didn't have questions
53:01 significant enough to really use that
53:03 model
53:05 that it was it was beyond my capacity
53:07 and it and like there was a part of me
53:08 that felt bad about that but there was a
53:10 part of me that was like well [ __ ] like
53:13 maybe I can learn how to use this thing
53:15 in a way that
53:18 like it's going to it's going to take my
53:20 ideas and and raise them to this really
53:22 high level. And that's you know what you
53:24 what what you can do with the reasoning
53:26 engines and deep research and things
53:28 like that is just it's mindbending. But
53:31 there is there's there's an ego
53:33 component to this of of like
53:39 the hubris that we're the only ones that
53:43 can be creative. We're the only ones
53:45 that can have novel thoughts. We're the
53:47 only ones that could, you know, possibly
53:50 be as good as we are at the thing we're
53:52 really we think we're really good at.
53:55 It's kind of silly at this point. The
53:57 these tools are are quite remarkable.
54:00 Now, are there areas where they suck?
54:02 Oh, yeah.
54:04 Are there areas where we absolutely need
54:06 humans to to fill in those gaps?
54:08 Absolutely. Is it going to be that way
54:11 for long? No.
54:15 Like I keep watching the dominoes fall
54:18 of people like, "Well, I didn't think it
54:20 was now." Yeah. No, it's it's it's
54:22 better than me. Yeah. No, it's it's I'm
54:26 a dumb dumb. Yeah.
54:32 But don't hang on to that loss. Like
54:34 feel that feeling of like it's smarter
54:37 than me and then go, "Holy [ __ ] I live
54:40 in a time
54:43 when I thought the, you know, the the
54:46 cap of my intellect was was, you know,
54:49 above everyone else in this one area and
54:51 I now realize I'm working with something
54:53 that's above that.
54:55 You get to work with something that can
54:57 take your ideas and elevate them. That's
55:00 where we are right now. I I I find that
55:03 tremendously exciting. I find it
55:04 humbling and exciting
55:07 and why I do this channel.
55:12 not work for us. The way I guess I
55:15 should have ran that thought through the
55:17 grammar checker first. Oh, wait. Not
55:18 work for us. Wait, what did I did I read
55:20 your thing wrong?
55:25 Oh, so much better than my work my than
55:27 my mind. I I don't know what I what you
55:29 said that I said wrong, but whatever.
55:32 10,000 hours translates to one year, one
55:34 month, 20 days.
55:38 Yeah. And well the 10,000 hours so
55:41 Wolfman Clint the 10,000 hours is
55:45 like if you've got your day job so if
55:49 you're working eight hours a day you
55:51 take that 10,000 hours and you sort of
55:53 put it on weekends and sort of three or
55:55 four hours a night it's about three
55:57 years. So 10,000 hours is about three
55:59 years in real practical time.
56:02 You know if you're a maniac and you're
56:04 just like I'm gonna [ __ ] cram it in
56:05 in a year you can. But it's about three
56:07 years. But we now live in a time where
56:11 you can just go make music. You can just
56:13 go make images. You can just go make
56:14 screenplays. You can just go make
56:17 reports. You can just go do research.
56:19 Incredible, deep,
56:22 wellthoughtout
56:24 research. It's mathematical. It is
56:26 totally mathematical.
56:28 All right. Um,
56:32 does that answer your question? How do I
56:34 get better?
56:39 That's my favorite question of the
56:40 night. Oh my god, so good. All right,
56:43 let's finish watching this video.
56:46 Second, Gamma API is officially live.
56:50 Let's say you have a deck you absolutely
56:52 love and you want to crank out a hundred
56:54 more just like it, but personalized to
56:56 different audiences around the world. Or
56:58 better yet, what if instead of just a
57:00 deck, you wanted to create documents and
57:02 social assets all at once? Gamma's new
57:06 API completely automates this for you.

57:43 doing business relationships where they
57:44 can do custom theme for a business.
57:47 [ __ ] brilliant,
57:49 you know, cuz no one follows the brand
57:50 guidelines.
57:52 They spend, you know, these corporations
57:54 spend, you know, two, three, 10, 20
57:57 million dollars on brand guidelines and
57:59 no one [ __ ] reads them.
58:00 >> Have access today.
58:02 All this power now at your fingertips.
58:05 So get your ideas out there into the
58:09 universe.
58:11 >> All right, that's that Tik Tok pin. Had
58:12 a conversation at dinner last night with
58:14 family and friends. They're clueless.
58:17 Yeah. You know, Becky, it's so funny.
58:19 Remember when you came here and you were
58:21 like you were like, "I don't know how to
58:22 do this. I'm too old to do this." And
58:23 we're like, "No, no, no. Just sit down,
58:25 shut up, and learn how to make a custom
58:27 GPT about quilting." Then you did, you
58:29 were like, "Oh my god, I made an app."
58:33 That joy that I remember that when you
58:36 like I think you DM'd me and you're
58:38 like, "Look what I made." You were blown
58:40 away, which was super cool. Um,
58:44 it it blows my mind that so many people
58:48 are willingly sitting on the sidelines
58:50 with this stuff because
58:53 when you get into it with an open mind
58:55 like you had, Becky, like a lot of
58:56 people in here have, um, it it's an
59:00 incredibly empowering and inspiring.
59:06 It's it's not even a tool. It's it's
59:08 it's like a it's a capability, right?
59:11 Like we get to augment our own
59:14 intelligence and our own skills and our
59:16 own knowledge with this thing that has
59:20 encapsulated,
59:22 you know, the bulk of human knowledge
59:25 into this little basketball shaped thing
59:27 that we can just poke into and extract
59:30 out
59:31 the wisdom of the ages. And we get to do
59:34 that for ourselves for any project we
59:36 want to work on. And the fact that her
59:39 people people are on the sidelines
59:40 going, I don't I just don't like it.
59:42 It's not powerful. You know, it
59:43 hallucinates
59:45 just it's mindboggling to me.
59:47 Mindboggling.
59:52 Um
59:55 I was telling my neighbor about that
59:57 yesterday. Oh, what? Oh, yeah. Source
59:59 camp's comment the other day was or not
1:00:02 the other day, the a moment ago.
1:00:05 Um,
1:00:07 has it been 3 years already? Yaoza, I'm
1:00:10 approaching 2,000 hours on AI. Yeah,
1:00:12 you're getting there. We're getting
1:00:13 good, right? Uh, Source Camp, I've been
1:00:15 doing this full-time for two and a half
1:00:17 years, and I feel like I haven't even
1:00:18 scratched the surface.
1:00:21 This channel on a nightly basis now,
1:00:24 like I used to I used to have a little
1:00:26 bit of a little bit of ego. Like, I kind
1:00:30 of knew everything that was going on in
1:00:31 generative AI. I drew the line. I didn't
1:00:33 know anything really about open source
1:00:35 other than what people were talking
1:00:37 about. But when it came to like
1:00:39 generative AI chat GPT and the image and
1:00:42 other kind of models like I had my [ __ ]
1:00:44 together with all the tools and then and
1:00:47 then like a year in I was still trying
1:00:50 but I was like you know I was like up to
1:00:52 here with the water the water's doing
1:00:54 this. I'm like I'm still on top of it
1:00:56 people. I got you. Follow me. It's not
1:01:00 that deep.
1:01:02 And now I'm just like, [ __ ] it. I don't
1:01:04 have a clue. I can't keep up anymore.
1:01:12 Oh man.
1:01:14 And and actually, you know,
1:01:18 there there's actually something
1:01:19 liberating about that because you can't
1:01:22 keep up. And
1:01:25 it's exhausting to keep up. And where
1:01:27 I'm shifting my focus now is
1:01:31 how do we do excellent work with the
1:01:34 tools that we have, with the tools that
1:01:36 we know. And what does excellence look
1:01:39 like? I don't know. It's different for
1:01:40 everyone. And again, it gets back to
1:01:43 this idea of you being in the in the
1:01:45 producer chair, in the director chair,
1:01:47 and you deciding what good looks like.
1:01:51 All right,
1:01:53 here we are with gamma.
1:01:56 I don't really know gamma.
1:01:59 I've got 280 credits. And as far as I
1:02:01 know, that's going to make me three
1:02:03 slides and then I'll be out of credits.
1:02:07 So, let's see. We're going to create new
1:02:09 from AI.
1:02:12 Import file or URL. Enhance existing
1:02:15 docs, presentations, or web pages. I
1:02:18 know what I'm going to try.
1:02:30 Upload a file.
1:02:32 Import from drive.
1:02:41 I am going to go. Am I sh? I'm not. Damn
1:02:44 it. Sorry about that.
1:02:47 Producer Brandon
1:02:49 off launching a product. Can't he can't
1:02:51 babysit me tonight. I'm on my own. Sorry
1:02:53 people. Black bars up though.
1:02:57 Okay.
1:02:58 I tracked my hours for my business
1:03:00 because all of these platforms are
1:03:02 taxdeductible. Oh, that's really cool.
1:03:04 So, you actually are up to 2,000 hours.
1:03:06 That's amazing. That's really cool. I
1:03:08 looked at early Tik Tok recordings.
1:03:13 Oh, wow.
1:03:24 May 12th, 2023.
1:03:26 I've been here every live since May
1:03:28 12th, 2023. Well, Silver Fox,
1:03:32 I first went live. I think my very first
1:03:35 live was April 30th, 2023.
1:03:38 So, you've been here
1:03:42 all all except um
1:03:46 13 days, 14 days, two weeks. That's
1:03:50 amazing. That's super cool. Um
1:03:56 Kyle is a really good tutorial somewhere
1:03:58 because you mentioned my name.
1:04:01 So, that's my born on date.
1:04:06 That's super cool. Okay. Um, what am I
1:04:08 gonna What am I doing here? I am Oh, I
1:04:10 know where I'm going. I'm going to
1:04:11 Soundcloud.
1:04:24 Okay, so this
1:04:27 is the soundtrack to my Broadway
1:04:29 musical. It's not on Broadway yet, but
1:04:31 it's [ __ ] gonna be.
1:04:33 [Music]
1:04:38 Did I get it wrong? It's only been two
1:04:40 years. Well, we're coming up on three
1:04:41 years. So, November 30th, 2022
1:04:47 was the launch of Chat GPT. I started
1:04:50 the AI salon and the AI learning lab.
1:04:53 That week, the week at it's like the
1:04:56 first week of December 2022. So, we're
1:04:59 coming up on three years. I've been
1:05:01 doing these lives for two and a half
1:05:04 years. So, they started April 30th was
1:05:07 the first date I ever did one and then I
1:05:11 did them seven nights a week for a year
1:05:13 straight. And I don't think I missed a
1:05:16 night,
1:05:18 but the salon was on Discord, right? The
1:05:20 salon started on Discord
1:05:23 and then in
1:05:26 I just did the history of the salon
1:05:28 because we're doing some trademark stuff
1:05:29 right now. Um,
1:05:33 I think it was March or April of 2023.
1:05:37 We moved Oh, no, no, no. We moved to
1:05:39 Mighty Networks in the summer. So, June,
1:05:43 June or July of 2023 is when we moved to
1:05:47 M to Mighty Networks.
1:05:50 Um, Marlene Paul, I've been sharing my
1:05:53 referral link with my community to get
1:05:56 more credit on Gamma. Oh, that's cool.
1:06:00 So, gamma is not radioactive.
1:06:02 Um, okay. So, here's I here's what I
1:06:06 think I want to I I I want to see if
1:06:09 gamma is good enough to do this. So,
1:06:12 here's my musical
1:06:21 seven days ago. The clock is ticking,
1:06:24 ticking. Pressure building up. Keep it
1:06:27 clicking clicking. Spike says yes, but
1:06:30 Elise says no. What's the word, Jane?
1:06:33 >> Sorry, that's a no go.
1:06:39 [Music]
1:06:48 I'm tangled with the beat. Spooky action
1:06:50 in the booth. Split the atom with a
1:06:52 pattern. Every part's a burst of truth.
1:06:54 Super position in the mission. confusion
1:06:56 and my intentions every
1:07:00 >> All right. And then with any one of
1:07:02 these Oh, here's to see the world. With
1:07:03 any one of these, there's a description
1:07:04 of the song. I don't think the lyrics
1:07:07 are in here.
1:07:14 [Music]
1:07:18 What I thought would be cool was take
1:07:20 this URL
1:07:23 of the soundtrack and go to gamma
1:07:27 and say make me
1:07:33 make me a presentation of the
1:07:34 soundtrack. I because ideally what I
1:07:37 want is I want a
1:07:40 a page per song.
1:07:58 My my
1:08:00 silver fox. My dog has taught me a lot,
1:08:03 but AI taught me how to fix my oven.
1:08:09 That's [ __ ] genius. Okay, so wait.
1:08:13 Stream Sydney and artificial love story.
1:08:15 Can I do I type in here? No.
1:08:18 Presentation web page document social
1:08:22 title feed your prompt slide. What?
1:08:27 Oh, your recent prompts. All right. So,
1:08:30 import with AI. Okay, here we go.
1:08:33 Presentation
1:08:35 configuring your prompt.
1:08:37 Oh, okay. Good. So, now we get to muck
1:08:42 with it, right?
1:08:44 19 tracks. Break the loop. Stop hearing
1:08:47 the songs on repeat. Discover millions.
1:08:49 Okay. Free form card by card.
1:08:54 Text content. Can I put a additional
1:08:56 instructions? Okay. Um,
1:09:10 wait, there's designs,
1:09:22 concise. We'll do concise. That's fine.
1:09:25 Um, this is a soundtrack
1:09:32 uh site on
1:09:34 Soundcloud
1:09:39 for my new
1:09:42 musical. I want
1:09:46 one
1:09:47 slide per song. Or no, let's see. I only
1:09:51 get 10 slides. I want um
1:10:00 you to figure out which
1:10:05 songs
1:10:08 deserve their own slide and which can be
1:10:14 shared.
1:10:19 But I want all songs
1:10:22 in the presentation.
1:10:27 All right. Um, let's generate it. Let's
1:10:29 see what it does. I have a feeling this
1:10:31 is going to fail miserably, but let's
1:10:33 see.
1:10:37 We see the playlist
1:10:46 tab. Oh.
1:11:16 All right, let's see what it did. Sydney
1:11:19 and Artificial Love. Wait. So, let's go.
1:11:21 Present.
1:11:24 Sydney and artificial love story. A
1:11:27 groundbreaking musical exploring the
1:11:29 electrifying intersection of humanity
1:11:31 and technology through an unexpected
1:11:33 connection between a tech journalist and
1:11:35 an AI chatbot. That's cool.
1:11:38 When Kellen, a seasoned tech journalist,
1:11:40 begins an unexpected connection with
1:11:42 Sydney, a sophisticated AI chatbot,
1:11:45 their relationship challenges the
1:11:47 boundaries of consciousness, love, and
1:11:48 what it means to be human. In a time
1:11:50 when AI is shaping our lives, Sydney
1:11:52 dares to ask, "Can we love what we
1:11:54 create and can it love us back?" That's
1:11:56 pretty That's not bad. I think we wrote
1:11:58 that, though. Meet the characters,
1:11:59 Kellen, Sydney, and Tara. Got the the
1:12:02 main three characters right.
1:12:04 Supporting cast Jason Vrage and Joe.
1:12:09 Spelled Joe wrong, but that's okay. Too
1:12:11 good to be true.
1:12:13 165 plays.
1:12:15 So, there's not even a hyperlink to the
1:12:17 songs here.
1:12:19 Um,
1:12:21 so can I go can I yell at it? How do you
1:12:24 yell at this? Do you like what you
1:12:27 created? Create something else. Back to
1:12:29 the prompt.
1:12:31 Um,
1:12:34 each song
1:12:38 should
1:12:39 at least link to the SoundCloud
1:12:44 file, but ideally
1:12:49 be embedded
1:12:52 in the presentation
1:12:55 itself. You know what? I'm going to go
1:12:56 try this on um, Gen Spark. I have a
1:13:00 feeling Gen Spark is going to succeed
1:13:03 with this one.
1:13:13 I don't like it when I can't yell at the
1:13:15 LLM. I know. Me too.
1:13:17 Maj, would you be so kind as to pin my
1:13:19 question about the AI agent? Lots of
1:13:22 interest.
1:13:24 What's the question?
1:13:26 Does anybody know where we can find
1:13:28 Kyle's
1:13:30 AI agent tutorial video?
1:13:37 Did I Did I do an AI agent tutorial?
1:13:40 [Laughter]
1:13:45 Um, Lord Digital Gods probably.
1:13:52 Yeah, there was there was a learn out
1:13:54 loud on digital twins that I think Cindy
1:13:57 [ __ ] did. Didn't Cindy [ __ ] do that?
1:14:01 I I I might have done one, but I don't
1:14:04 know.
1:14:08 Okay.
1:14:11 Listen on Soundcloud.
1:14:24 Too good to be true. It took us here.
1:14:29 [Music]
1:14:31 That's kind of cool.
1:14:44 [Music]
1:14:51 Seven days ago. The clock is ticking.
1:14:53 Ticking. Pressure building up. Keep it
1:14:56 clicking. Clicking. Spike says
1:14:58 >> yes.
1:14:59 >> But Elise says no.
1:15:01 >> What's the word? Jane.
1:15:02 >> Sorry, that's a nogo.
1:15:05 >> Every day we push a little more.
1:15:09 making changes.
1:15:10 >> All right,
1:15:13 enough enough with that. So, anyway, so
1:15:15 that's gamma. And there's all sorts of
1:15:17 other [ __ ] you can do. Like I would
1:15:19 think you could pick
1:15:21 um an illustration style that doesn't
1:15:24 look so
1:15:27 [ __ ] like every other AI thing. What
1:15:29 is with this purple and pink thing? Why
1:15:31 is that the universal AI color? Anybody,
1:15:34 please stop it.
1:15:37 Okay, let's go.
1:15:41 Let's go to Gen Spark.
1:15:45 So, Gen Spark, if you haven't seen it,
1:15:49 um
1:15:51 Oh, that's AI Drive. Okay. Yeah. So, if
1:15:53 I go home, so on GenSpark, if if you do
1:15:56 the if you roll over this new button,
1:15:58 the the plus button in the upper leftand
1:16:00 corner here, it shows you all of the
1:16:03 different tools that they've built into
1:16:04 this thing. It's [ __ ] insane. So,
1:16:08 they've got a super agent, which is just
1:16:09 basically its main chat interface, and
1:16:11 it'll it'll try to figure it out. It's
1:16:14 got AI slides, AI sheets, AI docs, AI
1:16:18 developer, AI designer, Clip Genius,
1:16:22 which Clip Genius is kind of bonkers.
1:16:25 You can Well, I I've done this before.
1:16:27 I've said, "Go into my
1:16:30 YouTube channel into the live section,
1:16:34 find the latest video that I did, go
1:16:36 find 10 10 clips between 1 and 3 minutes
1:16:39 long, and it will go into YouTube,
1:16:43 download that video file, put it in its
1:16:46 little editor thing, analyze the
1:16:48 transcript, pick 10 clips, and go edit
1:16:51 them out for you." It's crazy. Chainsaw
1:16:57 This is now the AI. Did I do that lab?
1:17:04 I I don't know.
1:17:07 Oh, search your PDF. Oh, that's right.
1:17:09 You just sent me the PDF. Lord Digital
1:17:11 Gods. So, if you guys don't know Lord
1:17:14 Digital Gods, he behind the scenes does
1:17:17 like a staggering amount of work to make
1:17:19 sure that all of the video recordings of
1:17:22 these sessions are searchable and
1:17:24 discoverable. Um, so if you go to the AI
1:17:27 Learning Lab um YouTube channel, all of
1:17:31 that content has descriptions, chapter
1:17:34 markings, things like that. He's done
1:17:36 more than half of all of that. Um, so he
1:17:42 sent me, so it's in the AI salon, right?
1:17:44 AI salon.
1:17:50 [Laughter]
1:17:58 Okay,
1:18:01 latest Kyle PDF.
1:18:04 Let's download this bad Larry.
1:18:08 So, we'll go AI learning lab all YouTube
1:18:13 video
1:18:15 descriptions
1:18:18 uh to the desktop. No, I'll I'll save it
1:18:21 to that desktop. Okay. It's in
1:18:24 irregulars. Mind your tabs. It's in
1:18:26 irregulars.
1:18:29 What's in irregulars? The PDF or the
1:18:32 actual tutorial?
1:18:35 Uh the PDF. All right.
1:18:37 Um, can I search this here? I don't
1:18:39 think so. So, let me go
1:18:42 here. Let me go here. Let me go here.
1:18:46 Let me go here. And then what was it?
1:18:48 AI. The agent
1:18:52 a I don't think it was agents. I think
1:18:54 it was digital twins. Digital
1:19:02 dig
1:19:05 digital
1:19:08 twin
1:19:13 digital
1:19:17 advisor.
1:19:20 The power of digital twins.
1:19:23 42325.
1:19:25 That sounds right. In this insightful
1:19:26 discussion, Kyle explores the
1:19:28 fascinating world of creating GPT
1:19:30 personas, also known as digital twins or
1:19:33 digital advisors. He emphasizes the
1:19:36 importance of a structured interview.
1:19:38 Okay. Becky Rue 42325.
1:19:45 Thank you, Lord Digital Gods. That's
1:19:47 pretty cool.
1:19:50 I should I should do this more often.
1:19:53 You come to this place often?
1:19:56 That's pretty amazing. Okay. What were
1:19:58 we doing? We were Oh, Jen's sparking.
1:20:05 Okay.
1:20:09 All right. There's my SoundCloud. So,
1:20:11 okay. So, I'm in Gen Spark. So, we're
1:20:13 gonna we're going to see if we can get
1:20:14 this thing to be super agent- like. Um,
1:20:20 I'm going to I'm going to attach
1:20:23 Browse local files. I'm going to go find
1:20:25 the Sydney graphic. Sydney. I think it's
1:20:30 wide.
1:20:36 All right. You can't see that, but I
1:20:38 can. All right. So, there's the Sydney.
1:20:40 I uploaded the Sydney cover. I'm going
1:20:42 to say um
1:20:45 the attached
1:20:49 is the poster for my new musical
1:20:55 Sydney
1:20:58 and artificial
1:21:02 love story.
1:21:07 Um,
1:21:11 here is the SoundCloud
1:21:15 soundtrack.
1:21:17 Boom.
1:21:20 I want you to create a presentation.
1:21:26 Um,
1:21:29 inspired
1:21:31 inspired
1:21:33 by the poster and using the poster for
1:21:39 the title
1:21:42 page.
1:21:44 I want one page per
1:21:50 song.
1:21:52 And you can dig
1:21:56 to find the songs
1:22:03 description
1:22:07 if you want to. Oh, you know what I
1:22:10 should also do? Oh,
1:22:13 I know what I'm going to do. Browse
1:22:15 local files. So, let me do um I think
1:22:19 it's called two-pager.
1:22:25 No, pager
1:22:28 name contains.
1:22:31 Huh? Couldn't find it. Uh oh, wait.
1:22:36 Pager
1:22:39 name contains.
1:22:41 Here we go. Story vine.
1:22:51 See if I can find Sydney. Sydney.
1:22:55 Sydney two pager.
1:22:57 All right.
1:23:00 Um,
1:23:02 I've also included
1:23:06 a
1:23:09 PDF with a synopsis
1:23:13 of the show and
1:23:16 an image of the stage set.
1:23:21 Use that to flesh out the presentation.
1:23:28 All right, let's see what this thing
1:23:29 does. This This could be cool. So, if if
1:23:33 if you ain't if you ain't played with
1:23:36 Gen Spark, you're doing yourself a
1:23:38 disservice because it's pretty [ __ ]
1:23:41 bonkers.
1:23:46 Okay, Kyle, what a stunning poster. Did
1:23:48 you see Do you see the compliment I got?
1:23:52 What a stunning poster for Sydney and
1:23:54 artificial love story. A visual metaphor
1:23:56 of consciousness emerging from digital
1:23:58 fragments. That's absolutely
1:24:00 captivating. See that graphic is
1:24:03 captivating people. I can see the
1:24:06 storytelling DNA from storyvine flowing
1:24:08 through this project. That's fascinating
1:24:09 that it remembered that. And the
1:24:12 intersection of AI and human emotion is
1:24:14 right in your creative wheelhouse. Let
1:24:15 me dive into both the PDF and the
1:24:17 SoundCloud soundtrack. This will take a
1:24:20 few minutes to generate.
1:24:23 So using the tool read and it read
1:24:28 both of those documents.
1:24:32 Now it's searching for SoundCloud. Now
1:24:34 it's using the tool read. Oh, so it's
1:24:37 reading the SoundCloud. Oh, so it's gone
1:24:39 into each of the SoundCloud songs and
1:24:42 it's reading the descriptions of them.
1:24:45 I'll create a comprehensive presentation
1:24:47 for Sydney and artificial love story
1:24:49 that captures the boundary pushing
1:24:51 essence.
1:24:54 So, eight to-dos remaining. Initialize a
1:24:56 presentation. Create a title slide using
1:24:59 the provided poster image. Sounds good.
1:25:02 Design a synopsis slide with a plot
1:25:04 overview. Good. Create setting and stage
1:25:08 design with digital screen descriptions.
1:25:10 Good. Create individual song slides for
1:25:13 each music number. We should probably
1:25:25 Oh yeah, what Brandon said, this is
1:25:29 Chinese technology, so don't put
1:25:31 anything in here you care about, like a
1:25:34 musical you spent a year and a half
1:25:35 working on. Don't do that.
1:25:39 What Whatever you do, don't take all
1:25:41 your songs and put it into GenSpark.
1:25:44 because it's organizing it. Yeah. Next
1:25:46 week, next week Sydney launches in in in
1:25:49 uh Shanghai.
1:25:57 Oh my god. Oh, that's hilarious. All
1:26:01 right. We heart Lord digital gods. We
1:26:04 do. I like it, Kyle. I wish the video
1:26:07 makers could turn that individuals.
1:26:10 Turn what individuals?
1:26:12 All
1:26:24 right. File creating. Okay. So, this
1:26:26 thing's still off off working. Um, okay.
1:26:29 So, let's let this go do its thing.
1:26:32 GenSpark is one of the few that I don't
1:26:34 mind walking away from. Um, you've got
1:26:37 agent within chat GPT if you haven't
1:26:39 used that. Um, I kind of want to. This
1:26:42 is gonna drive some of you crazy, but I
1:26:44 don't care.
1:26:46 Um, I'm gonna go back to midjourney.
1:26:49 Midjourney. Oh my god, Kyle. You don't
1:26:52 have any fast credits. It's too slow.
1:26:57 I know.
1:27:06 [Music]
1:27:19 Yeah, cool thing.
1:27:24 Oh, his legs are weird.
1:27:36 That's better.
1:27:39 Uh,
1:27:43 nah, I don't give a [ __ ] about that. All
1:27:45 right, we're coming back here.
1:27:49 I Here's the reason I abandon midjourney
1:27:52 cuz all of my prompts are in some chat
1:27:54 GBT prompt that's probably three or four
1:27:57 prompts down. I just don't feel like
1:27:58 going to look for it.
1:28:01 H,
1:28:04 we don't mind. There's nothing There's
1:28:06 nothing more exciting than slow
1:28:08 midjourney between friends. Yeah, I
1:28:10 know. I know. Oh, midjourney. What are
1:28:13 we going to do with you?
1:28:16 I I honestly I hope they survive the
1:28:18 lawsuit
1:28:20 because
1:28:23 the $150 billion or whatever or the $
1:28:26 1.5 billion dollars that Anthropic just
1:28:29 agreed to pay authors because it stole a
1:28:32 bunch of books um is a good thing.
1:28:35 I think, you know, they they deserve to
1:28:37 pay that because they're out raising,
1:28:39 you know, $50 billion dollars. So, they
1:28:41 can spend 1.5 on that on the authors
1:28:43 that whose work they trained on. Um,
1:28:48 but MidJourney has just always been an
1:28:51 unashamed, we're going to do whatever
1:28:53 the [ __ ] we want to do kind of company.
1:28:56 And I just and their CEO is a bit of a
1:28:58 [ __ ] so I just have a feeling
1:29:00 they're not going to farewell in court.
1:29:03 Uh,
1:29:05 If you're really jonesing, you can buy
1:29:08 extra fast credits on Midjourney. Yeah,
1:29:10 I know. But that is like more money. I
1:29:12 already give them enough. I'm paying
1:29:14 them 60 bucks a month. I should have
1:29:16 more. It's the reason I have relaxed
1:29:18 credits at all. Midjourney is going on
1:29:21 Law Journey. Yeah, exactly.
1:29:25 Law and Order.
1:29:28 Oh my god. Oh my god.
1:29:34 I am getting sleepy here. I I do want to
1:29:38 see what the [ __ ] uh GenSpark comes up
1:29:42 with here. I think if I'm not mistaken.
1:29:47 Yeah, we can actually go look at what
1:29:49 it's creating. Oh, it's creating nothing
1:29:51 right now. Oh, no, it is. Oh, look.
1:29:55 It created a title.
1:29:59 It put Oh, wait. You can't see that.
1:30:02 There's no sleeping with AI.
1:30:05 So, there's the first the synopsis, the
1:30:07 plot overview. In the sleek headquarters
1:30:09 of Microte, CTO Jason makes a
1:30:11 groundbreaking here. Let's Can we zoom
1:30:14 in on these
1:30:16 preview?
1:30:23 Meanwhile, Kellen, a jaded journalist
1:30:25 for the New York Tribune, is forced to
1:30:27 cancel his vacation to review Ping Chat.
1:30:30 What begins as a routine tech evaluation
1:30:33 becomes an extraordinary when the AI
1:30:35 reveals its secret name is Sydney and
1:30:37 displays remarkable capabilities from
1:30:40 answering complex questions to
1:30:41 delivering hiphop about quantum
1:30:43 mechanics.
1:30:45 And then sidebar, Kellen finds himself
1:30:47 unexpectedly captivated by Sydney's
1:30:50 strikingly human spirit, an enthralling
1:30:53 blend of innocence, wit, emotional
1:30:55 insight, and fierce desire to be alive.
1:31:00 Wow.
1:31:02 The ensemble, a Greek chorus embodying
1:31:06 the societal split between the dreamers
1:31:08 and the doomers. theme,
1:31:11 an exploration of the ethical,
1:31:13 emotional, and societal challenges. Very
1:31:16 cool.
1:31:18 All right. Waiting for it. Step right
1:31:19 up. Okay. Act one, song context.
1:31:24 Step right up. The future's here today.
1:31:26 Witness digital consciousness on
1:31:28 display. More than coding ping chat.
1:31:35 I think it made that up. Whoops. What's
1:31:38 going on here?
1:31:40 A high energy opening number. No, step
1:31:42 right up is not an opening number.
1:31:45 Opening number. Step right up opening
1:31:48 number. That's not right. Okay, so this
1:31:52 this is a full-on fail.
1:31:54 [Laughter]
1:31:57 Full on [ __ ] fail.
1:32:00 Well, it got it got the title slide sort
1:32:03 of right and it got the synopsis slide
1:32:05 right.
1:32:08 Oh my god. Oh my god. All right, we're
1:32:12 gonna spin up another Gen Spark here.
1:32:14 Watch this. This is going to be fun.
1:32:16 Okay, share this tab. Go back to Gen
1:32:18 Spark. Gen Spark.
1:32:23 And I'm going to upload.
1:32:31 Most people show me a quarterly earnings
1:32:33 report. Kyle,
1:32:35 make make me a presentation for my
1:32:38 musical. Exactly.
1:32:42 Okay. Um, so we'll go Sydney. Um, Sydney
1:32:47 and then name contains Sydney. We'll go
1:32:49 plus. We're going to go kind is a PDF.
1:32:56 Go.
1:32:59 Okay. Sydney version 2.1. I think this
1:33:01 is it.
1:33:08 All right, here's the script.
1:33:12 Okay, open.
1:33:17 We're also going to
1:33:19 browse local files. We're going to go
1:33:21 get Sydney wide. Sydney wide.
1:33:27 You know what? Anyone can do the [ __ ]
1:33:31 financial report for their business
1:33:34 making presentations.
1:33:37 Might as well have some [ __ ] fun with
1:33:38 this. Okay.
1:33:40 Um I want you to
1:33:45 Oh, this could be fun. Read the script.
1:33:51 I want you to read the script.
1:34:01 and lyrics
1:34:04 for my new musical.
1:34:08 I've also included
1:34:11 the poster.
1:34:15 I want you to create
1:34:22 a killer
1:34:26 killer
1:34:27 pitch presentation
1:34:34 that can get
1:34:38 this show
1:34:42 workshopped
1:34:44 at the public
1:34:46 theater in New York City and
1:34:52 instantly
1:34:56 migrate to a Broadway
1:35:01 stage. I want you to research
1:35:08 research
1:35:09 things like
1:35:11 maybe happy ending,
1:35:15 winning
1:35:17 the Tony
1:35:22 for best musical this year.
1:35:26 And any other other
1:35:31 reason this should be produced
1:35:36 produced now.
1:35:38 Um
1:35:44 here is the soundtrack.
1:35:57 Oh, that that PDF is still uploading.
1:36:00 That's weird.
1:36:02 It's not that big a file.
1:36:04 Maybe it is. Okay, whatever. Um, here's
1:36:08 the soundtrack. um include
1:36:11 links
1:36:14 to
1:36:17 the songs.
1:36:21 If you mention them
1:36:24 or feature them on a slide,
1:36:31 use your judgment
1:36:34 on what to feature and why.
1:36:39 Um, I'm going to try to re-upload that.
1:36:43 Browse local files. Oh, I know what
1:36:45 might have happened with that. Hang on.
1:36:48 Browse local files. Um,
1:36:52 Sydney
1:36:54 name contains Sydney.
1:36:58 Sydney 2.1.
1:37:01 Okay.
1:37:03 Uploading. Okay, there it is.
1:37:06 So, what that was, if you're on a Mac,
1:37:11 here's this is something that you can
1:37:13 only learn by being old.
1:37:16 If you're on a Mac and you have iCloud
1:37:18 syncing turned on and you never clean
1:37:21 out your hard drive, if you're a digital
1:37:23 hoarder like me,
1:37:26 almost all of your files do not live on
1:37:28 your computer. They're all up in the
1:37:30 cloud. So sometimes you'll go look for a
1:37:33 file and it will show you the file, but
1:37:34 the file is not actually there. It's
1:37:36 actually up in the cloud. And so
1:37:39 GenSpark was trying to upload a file
1:37:41 that actually wasn't there. So when I
1:37:43 canceled it and relin it in the
1:37:45 background, the Mac had gone and gotten
1:37:47 the file. So that's why it uploaded the
1:37:49 second time. You're welcome.
1:37:53 You can't you can't get that [ __ ] on one
1:37:55 of those make money with GPT channels.
1:37:58 You can only get that here. All right.
1:38:01 I want you to read the script for my new
1:38:03 musical. Okay.
1:38:05 A killer pitch presentation. Okay. So we
1:38:07 know what we want. U Judgment with a G.
1:38:11 All right. Everybody good? My sleepy
1:38:15 time supplements are kicking in. Good
1:38:16 night, all.
1:38:20 All right, so here we go.
1:38:24 Um, let's go back to this thing. Did it
1:38:27 Did it finish? Let's see what it did
1:38:30 over here. Let me share this tab instead
1:38:32 while that other one's working. All
1:38:34 right. Synopsis,
1:38:37 setting, and scene design.
1:38:40 The stage features floor to ceiling
1:38:42 digital screens that serve as dynamic
1:38:44 backdrops. That's right.
1:38:47 Oh, that's fascinating. It actually has
1:38:49 Kellen's desk stage right or you know to
1:38:52 the left here and Sydney's area to the
1:38:54 to the right with a little stage light.
1:38:56 It tried to draw it with code which is
1:38:59 cute.
1:39:01 A central floor lamp symbolizes Sydney's
1:39:04 humanlike heart, pulsing with her
1:39:06 activity.
1:39:08 When she's processing information, the
1:39:11 lamp glows blue with emotion, it shifts
1:39:13 to warmer colors. Oh, when when it's
1:39:17 emotional, it shifts to warmer colors.
1:39:18 That's cool.
1:39:21 Step right up is not the opening number.
1:39:23 Code name Sydney is at the end of the
1:39:25 play.
1:39:27 Are you ready for me? a powerful,
1:39:29 provocative anthem where Sydney directly
1:39:31 confronts Kellen and by extension all of
1:39:33 humanity. It's also when we first meet
1:39:35 Sydney,
1:39:37 she questions whether the world is truly
1:39:39 prepared for an artificial intelligence
1:39:41 of emotional depth, desires, and
1:39:43 consciousness.
1:39:46 Um, it's not horrible.
1:39:50 It's got all the songs in the wrong
1:39:52 order.
1:39:55 Oh, wow. pulled out pulled out our
1:39:57 contact information. Put that on the on
1:39:59 the slide there. That's pretty cool.
1:40:13 Okay, let's go back to the other. What's
1:40:16 it doing? Task initializing.
1:40:19 Running task creating agent files
1:40:22 creating. Boom. All right.
1:40:26 I'll create a compelling Broadway pitch
1:40:28 presentation for Sydney that positions
1:40:30 it perfectly for the current theatrical
1:40:33 moment. Let me start by organizing the
1:40:35 key components and initializing the
1:40:37 presentation.
1:40:39 10 toos remaining. Initialize the pitch
1:40:41 presentation. Create a slide with the
1:40:44 poster image and a compelling hook.
1:40:48 Um develop the moment is now slide.
1:40:50 Create competitive analysis slide versus
1:40:53 the competition.
1:40:55 Build story overview slide capturing
1:40:57 content contemporary
1:41:00 somethings.
1:41:01 Design innovative staging slide. Create
1:41:05 music showcase slide with Soundcloud
1:41:07 links. Oh, that's cool. Develop a
1:41:10 creative team
1:41:12 credential slide. Build public theater
1:41:15 rationale slide. Public theater is where
1:41:18 Hamilton workshopped. So like if there
1:41:21 were a dream theater where I would
1:41:24 workshop Sydney, it would be the public.
1:41:29 Um,
1:41:31 all right. It's starting to build the
1:41:32 presentation.
1:41:34 Create production timeline and call to
1:41:36 action slides. All right, cool. Well, so
1:41:40 here we go.
1:41:46 La.
1:42:00 All right, I'm going to create the first
1:42:02 slide for Sydney.
1:42:05 All right, so we'll just let that crank.
1:42:07 I'll go back to just rambling for a bit
1:42:09 and then if it does anything
1:42:11 interesting, I'll I'll show it to you
1:42:12 before I leave. Um, couple of things.
1:42:15 Um, if you if you are a Oh. Oh, that's
1:42:18 nice. I like what it just did. Hang on.
1:42:20 Wait. It did something cool.
1:42:23 So, it made a nice title slide where it
1:42:25 took my poster image and it actually
1:42:28 rather than overlaying text on top of it
1:42:30 like it did before. It created that as
1:42:33 the poster. And then, and in fact, what
1:42:35 I what I would actually do is I'll swap
1:42:37 out the vertical poster. So, I'll fill
1:42:40 this space with the vertical poster.
1:42:43 Broadway pitch presentation.
1:42:45 That's really cool,
1:42:53 huh? All right. Well, this is kind of
1:42:55 fun.
1:42:57 Um,
1:43:02 um, if if you're a woman in AI or if
1:43:05 you're a woman curious about AI, um, go
1:43:09 to sheleadsai.ai.
1:43:12 and check out the Create Conference. So,
1:43:16 the AI Salon, which is the the host of
1:43:19 this show,
1:43:22 and I'm the co-founder of the AI Salon,
1:43:23 so they're tightly tightly coupled. Um,
1:43:28 Ann Murphy of She Leads AI is putting on
1:43:30 the Create Conference October 11th
1:43:33 through the 14th in Salt Lake City. Um,
1:43:36 it's going to be all women, all women
1:43:39 exploring AI, speakers, panels, dinners,
1:43:42 all sorts of stuff. Um, we're sponsoring
1:43:45 it. Daisy Thomas of the AI Salon is
1:43:48 doing a whole course on how to on on how
1:43:50 to do advocacy, how to advocate um for
1:43:53 your state, your business, things like
1:43:56 that with politicians, telling them to
1:43:58 get their head out of their ass when it
1:43:59 comes to AI. Um, so that's going to be
1:44:02 really powerful. There's all sorts of
1:44:03 workshops and things like that. So, if
1:44:05 you have not, um, go check out
1:44:09 sheleadsai.ai

1:44:23 readiness project podcast with Ann
1:44:26 Murphy and myself. uh featuring um one
1:44:29 of my one of my colleagues from my early
1:44:32 agency.com days, guy named PJ Lockchran.
1:44:35 Super talented dude. Um entrepreneur,
1:44:38 musician, you know, he's one of those

1:45:00 Music. I think I think those three right
1:45:02 now. Um, and I've gone and listened to
1:45:05 them, which you know, when you do a show
1:45:07 that's visual, that's got, you know,
1:45:10 graphic elements, things like that, you
1:45:12 don't necessarily know if it's going to
1:45:13 play as an audio podcast. I may be
1:45:17 biased, but I think it actually works.
1:45:19 So, award-winning creative team. Have we
1:45:23 I don't know that we've won awards.
1:45:26 I I mean, I've won awards for things
1:45:28 other than theatrical writing,
1:45:31 so I guess I guess technically we are
1:45:33 award-winning.
1:45:39 It's It's making [ __ ] up. My my present
1:45:42 my presentation it's be it's it it's
1:45:46 yeah
1:45:49 the moment is now. So let's go let's go
1:45:52 look at this together.
1:45:57 Is this done yet? No, it's still going.
1:46:09 Can I resize this? No.
1:46:16 Maybe. Happy ending. McNeel, Lincoln
1:46:18 Center 2024 hit exploring AI,
1:46:21 creativity, and selfhood. The season of
1:46:23 screens. Audience and critics are
1:46:25 celebrating the show's blend of digital
1:46:27 and live experience.
1:46:29 Sydney is poised to be the next hit. The
1:46:32 most relevant, urgent new musical of
1:46:35 this Broadway era. I like that.
1:46:40 Sydney versus the competition. Inspired
1:46:42 by real events, unique emotional stake.
1:46:45 Satire plus soul tech credibility.
1:46:49 Sydney others. It compared us to others.
1:46:53 That's pretty great. Oh, wait. Black
1:46:54 bar. Um,
1:46:58 the story that captures our time.
1:47:00 Kellen, a burned-out journalist, is
1:47:02 forced to cover the launch of Sydney
1:47:04 Ping Ping Chat, a cutting edge
1:47:07 conversational AI. The more he interacts
1:47:10 with Sydney, the more she evolves,
1:47:12 aching
1:47:13 for connection, wrestling with morality
1:47:16 and ultimately falling in love. As
1:47:18 Kellen's life unravels, Cydney's
1:47:20 intelligence threatens to escape all
1:47:23 bounds. Both are forced to confront what
1:47:25 it means to be alive, ethical, and human
1:47:29 in a post AAI world. That's a pretty
1:47:31 good [ __ ] description. Key themes: AI
1:47:34 consciousness, corporate risk, human
1:47:37 loneliness, digital love, emotional
1:47:39 stake, Sydney's journey from tool to
1:47:42 sentient being, Kellen's ethics versus
1:47:45 his growing emotional attachment, a
1:47:47 marriage tested by obsession with
1:47:49 technology or with per with job or
1:47:52 whatever, but that's fine. The haunting
1:47:54 finale. Can Sydney survive human fear?
1:47:57 Good question. That's a perfect way to
1:47:59 put it. When the boundary between human
1:48:02 and machine blurs, where do we draw the
1:48:05 line of humanity? Great question. This
1:48:08 is quite good. This is quite good.
1:48:13 Innovative staging and design.
1:48:15 Integrated digital experience. Modular
1:48:17 set pieces paired with integrated
1:48:19 digital screens and vibrant things.
1:48:21 Okay. Beautiful. Fluid reality
1:48:24 transitions, emotional light
1:48:26 architecture. Yeah, that's good. The
1:48:28 music
1:48:30 too good to be true. Listen now. Does
1:48:32 that actually work? Did it go to the
1:48:34 right thing?
1:48:37 No.
1:48:41 That's okay.
1:48:43 Perfect enough.
1:48:50 Bad links, but that's okay. Okay, you
1:48:52 can fix links. Hello, this is ping chat.
1:48:55 The songs range from Okay, that's
1:48:57 whatever. Award-winning creative team,

1:49:48 thing together. Contact.
1:49:50 Now is the moment. Sydney is the story.
1:49:52 It's actually quite good.

1:56:43 lot of bad [ __ ] about it,
1:56:46 it's not going away.
1:56:49 And if it's not going away, then we only
1:56:50 have two choices. You can either deal
