2. 0:20[Applause] [Music]
3. 0:44Get on to him like slow cold fronts. He be was warmer than a look in her eyes.
4. 0:58[Music] She sat on stool and he said, "What do you want?" [Music] She said, "Give me a love that don't freeze up inside."
5. 1:16You said I have most of my time dear. >> But to sit next to you while I shiver and shake. [Applause]
6. 1:32And if I knew, well, I don't think I'd be here. Asking myself if I've got what it takes.
7. 1:47to melt your icy blue heart. [Music] Should I stop? Turn what's been frozen for years
8. 2:05into a river of tears. [Music]
9. 2:24Ah, I love you, singing pup. That is the best singing dog in the whole planet. That is Champ the singing dog.
10. 2:33They made toys about Champ in the 70s. I've got the commercial to prove it. They made uh toys about Gen Xers in the
11. 2:4590s. I've got the commercial to prove it. If you don't think it's true, I've got the video. It's got to be true. We got video now. [Music]
12. 3:11Thank you for sharing the live Danielle as always. Much appreciated. [Music]
13. 4:03Oh Jesus. Freedom came my way that night just like a jet plane in and out of sight.
14. 4:19I was hauling ass at a million miles an hour, wondering how hard I'd hit [Music] when they came into the station.
15. 4:35[Music] [Applause] They said I was bad beyond repairs, but I got no qualms with my situation.
16. 4:49Say here I am. [Music] [Applause] So say Sheree Sheree Sheree won't [Music]
17. 5:04say Sheree Sheree Sheree what's happening what's shaking what's going down how are you good people this evening [Music]
18. 5:43So Tonight at my little CEO dinner, I had a uh one of one of my favorite guys there, a guy named Joe. He's the photographer
19. 5:52for the group. And he's just a super he's just like a cool hippie dude. man bun, you know, just sweetest dude and,
20. 6:06you know, very spiritual, very connected to just who he is and super generous, like always complimenting other people in
21. 6:16this really generous way. And so, I don't know, three or four months ago, he was sitting at our table and I was
22. 6:24going on about AI. I don't know if you know this. I talk a lot about AI, like even to strangers and in public places. It's it's sociopathic.
23. 6:34I I'll admit that. And uh so I was going on about AI and how powerful I think it is. And he's a photographer, so he was a little
24. 6:44skittery about it. I said, "No, don't think about it as a replacement for you. Think about it as an augmentation for you." And so,
25. 6:53so at the CEO dinner, one of the things that they do is there's like a 30 second introduce yourself and then you know
26. 7:01what's your ask of the community. And so tonight I said, you know, I'm the co-founder and CEO of StoryVine and I'm the co-founder of the
27. 7:10AI Salon. And I realized that the AI salon is about people transforming themselves personally or professionally using AI.
28. 7:22And that, you know, my favorite people in the AI salon are people who have figured out how to somehow strap AI on
29. 7:29like a jetpack and just ascend to to like a different plane. And and like what I've what I've learned over the years is that how that's
30. 7:39working like how that's happening is not about prompt engineering. It's not about prompt strategy or which model they use.
31. 7:48It's it's absolutely a mindset shift where the people that are reinventing themselves, rediscovering themselves,
32. 7:54amplifying themselves, are using AI as like a, for lack of a better term, like a confessional of their ideas,
33. 8:06right? It's a very personal thing. Champ, what is up? Hang on. Hold please.
34. 8:22I don't mind [ __ ] So, so what I asked for tonight is I
35. 8:37said I I said I I realized that that the AI salon is my attempt to surround myself with people that are kind of finding this radical
36. 8:49self-expression using AI and amplifying who they are and and I said so if anyone here has transformed themselves or you know know
37. 9:02anyone that has with AI Hi, I'd love to talk to you. So, as I was leaving tonight, Joe came up to me. A Champy. I know. Poor Champy. I don't
38. 9:13know what his deal is. I think it's because someone just cooked something in the air fryer and he smells food. So, I
39. 9:18think he's just hungry. He's just a whiny little whiny little puppy tonight. Um, so Joe pulls me aside and he goes,
40. 9:26he goes, "Kyle, I've transformed myself with AI." And so this was a guy who really wasn't using it three months ago and was afraid of it
41. 9:35and you know had this adversarial relationship with it. And I said well tell me more like what do you what do
42. 9:43you mean? And he said he got himself an AI powered journaling app and he journals with it every night and
43. 9:52he you know it's it's voice journaling. And I said and well how has that transformed you? And he said, "Well," he
44. 9:59goes, he goes, "I have all these ideas in my head." And he goes, "With humans, you know, humans have their own [ __ ] and
45. 10:08like if I start unloading these ideas on humans, there's, you know, there's they've got some amount of capacity,
46. 10:14right? And at some point, they just tap out." And he says, "But with with this AI thing, I can literally just unload on
47. 10:23it, and I can just talk for 10 minutes, 15 minutes, and it's it's, you know, remembering and cataloging and indexing
48. 10:32everything I'm talking about, as well as everything we've talked about for the past three or four months."
49. 10:38And and he goes he goes, "So I know when I sit down with with that that journal, I can find the edges of all the ideas
50. 10:48that I'm thinking about, right? That he can get them out of his head and journal with them." Yeah. Brandon, what's
51. 10:56>> Speaking of getting people out of your head, if you're not going to open Miro, um >> Oh, >> you know, we haven't been together for a
52. 11:02couple nights, but uh your Tik Tok cams are all effed up. Um, I've got stuff pinned that you're ignoring. So, we'll get it sorted.
53. 11:12>> We'll get it sorted. Hang on. Let me >> Good to be back with you, Kyle. It's been a couple days. >> Welcome. [Music]
54. 11:25>> Yeah, I had I go one night without a producer. I forget what it's like to have a producer. Oh, good lord. Okay,
55. 11:38the postits are up and friendly. >> Unless you're watching Tik Tok and this case you're just seeing postits. There we go.
56. 11:49>> I'm getting there. Okay, Tik Tok is now reframed. All right, I do have a question pinning
57. 12:03speaking of Tik Tok and that might >> a question pinned on Tik Tok. >> All right. How do we balance the good
58. 12:14and bad of AI? It's a energy demanding process and consumes a lot of water. The consumes a lot of water thing is a is is a bizarre
59. 12:27bizarre trope to me. It's a bizarre one. So the why it consumes a lot of water or why they say it consumes a lot of water is that when
60. 12:39it when the processors get hot and you've got a liquid cooled system, you're running a lot of water through the system.
61. 12:48Almost all of those systems are closed loop systems, meaning they fill it with water like a radiator in your car and
62. 12:56then the water circulates through the system. So, I actually don't know. I I don't It is possible that there is some
63. 13:04server farm somewhere that's literally just got a guy with a fire hose squirting GPUs and and getting rid of all the water.
64. 13:15So, so I I don't get that one. That one I don't get. The other thing about water is you're using all the water. Okay,
65. 13:22let's assume there's a guy with a fire hose there squirting all the GPUs and all that water is evaporating.
66. 13:29Where's that water going? It's going back to the [ __ ] clouds and then it's going to fall back in the
67. 13:35lakes and go back in the reservoirs for the guy with the ho. Like I I just that one I don't get at all. Does it use a
68. 13:43lot of energy? Yes, it uses a lot of energy. It primarily uses that energy on the training, not on the inference. Now,
69. 13:51when you have whatever it is 7 or 900 million users that OpenAI has and however many million the other ones
70. 13:58have, that's a lot of inference. So, there's there's a lot of um there's a lot of compute being computed.
71. 14:06But there's a couple of things to to think about when it comes to energy consumpt consumption. The cost per knowledge unit is going
72. 14:17down dramatically, right? So, so these systems are getting more and more efficient. Um, and they're getting more
73. 14:23and more smart. So, the amount of compute we need per intelligence cycle is going down dramatically. And probably within the next two or
74. 14:34three years, we will have models small enough to actually just run on your phone. So I would say the concerns about
75. 14:41energy are absolutely like like the the announcement that that OpenAI and Nvidia just made that Nvidia is investing a
76. 14:49hundred billion dollars and they're trying to big bring a gigawatt of compute online every day on average.
77. 14:58Is it every day or is it every week? Once a week. I don't know. It's a lot. That's going to require a [ __ ] ton of energy. Now,
78. 15:10the AI is going to help us do things like figure out fusion sooner than later, right? So, so the AI will
79. 15:19actually help us make energy production more efficient and less polluting and less costly and all that sort of stuff,
80. 15:25but there's this short-term window where yeah, we're going to be investing a [ __ ] ton of money in energy production. If
81. 15:32you listen to Elon Musk, it is so much energy production that you it's actually not practical to do it with uh with code
82. 15:39and things like that. Saw your vid on using one's why. I've been doing it for a while and can give good results. Oh, and it can give good
83. 15:49results. Awesome. Yeah, AI your why is something that I've been talking about. So, let me let me take that and go back
84. 15:55to this other comment. So, that you you asking the question, how do you balance the good and bad of AI? um
85. 16:05the bad things like it costs energy, it costs water, the robots are going to kill us. Um it's the world's greatest
86. 16:12plagiarism machine. There's there's a lot of um it's not misinformation, but it's kind of amplified hyperbolic information um
87. 16:28about the negative aspects of AI. There is almost no, with maybe the exception of of this channel and a
88. 16:37couple other channels and things like the AI salon, there is almost no positive coverage about the positive impact of AI.
89. 16:47What do we talk about? It's going to cost jobs. It's going to it's going to kill us. It's gonna Right. It's
90. 16:53destroying everything, right? It's changing everything. Everything's wrong. Everything's bad. the AI, your why, the I the the the the
91. 17:03thing that has inspired me from the beginning of doing this channel and and the thing that has inspired me from the beginning
92. 17:10of the AI salon is I get to witness on a regular basis, like on a nightly basis, people rediscovering who they are because of AI
93. 17:25and What I would say is that is is that the good that you can do with AI, the best thing you can do with it, in my opinion,
94. 17:40is feed it you AI your why. Prompt your purpose. Figure out what it is you want in the world. Do you want to start
95. 17:52a lemonade stand? Do you want to start a pizza shop? Do you want to come up with a new kind of exercise with for people with bad knees?
96. 18:03Do you want to write the next great American novel? Do you want to like what what is the thing that that you you're
97. 18:09really passionate about? And and here's there's going to be a lot of people in the next three years that get booted out of their jobs
98. 18:25that in their current jobs have never had to really ask themselves, what do I really care about? What am I really passionate about?
99. 18:37And AI is going to start displacing people out of jobs. And what it's going to look like is some of the jobs that they get displaced
100. 18:45out of are not coming back, right? Like when the steam engine took over, you know, horse horsedrawn plows on farms,
101. 18:5880% of those jobs went away. 80 80% of those people over a 40 or 50 year period lost their jobs. they had to figure out other things to
102. 19:07do. So there's there's going to be a forcing function that happens that for people that are currently entrepreneurs
103. 19:14or soloreneurs or creative producers, people that, you know, write songs or music or art or things like that,
104. 19:22they are more prepared for being able to be really good at AI than people who are not. If if you're at a job where you're
105. 19:30told what to do every day and and you actually like that and you don't have to think about what's my opinion here. And
106. 19:36in fact, in some companies, having an opinion is actually a dangerous thing, right? If you give your opinion off with the head,
107. 19:45those people are going to be displaced. And what everyone talks about is that they're going to lose the jobs. AI is terrible.
108. 19:56But what is AI? Well, AI, when you AI your why, when you prompt with purpose, when you think about who
109. 20:05you are and what you want, and you start working with AI like an amplifier of your ideas, what ends up happening is
110. 20:16this is one of the very first insights I had about generative AI when when ChatGpt came out. One of the very first
111. 20:21insights I had was, "Holy [ __ ] I can't believe how fast I can get an idea out of my head and into the world."
112. 20:31And it might look like I vibe coded an app. Or it might look like I need some sort of image that kind of looks like
113. 20:37this and poof, there it is. It might look like, "Oh, wouldn't it be funny if that were a poem?" And now there's a poem.
114. 20:45you can get the ideas out of your your head incredibly quickly and then they sit in front of you like a little chalice of possibility,
115. 20:53right? You're like, "Huh, look at those ideas." And this is what Joe was talking about tonight at that CEO dinner that he
116. 21:01can get the ideas out of his head and he can explore the boundaries. He goes, he he goes, "I can explore the outer edges
117. 21:08of all the [ __ ] that was in my head for that day." He goes, "It's absolutely remarkable. And so that is transformative.
118. 21:25It will initially be transformative for you personally. Right? You'll be like, I got these ideas and I've never been able
119. 21:32to do anything with them and let me put them in the [ __ ] machine and poof out they'll come and you'll have the little
120. 21:37chalice of ideas and you'll look at them and go, huh, those are actually pretty good. Or you'll look at them and go, "Eh, now
121. 21:45those are crappy ideas, but you know, I had this other idea once." You put that in there. Poof, there it is. Uh, wow.
122. 21:55I haven't thought about that idea since I was seven. I hear this a lot. I hear a lot of people that are really enthused, that
123. 22:03are really lit up about AI. It has allowed them to rediscover something in them that they thought was dead.
124. 22:17If you want to talk about doing good in the world, you take someone who had given up their dreams when they were seven or 10 or 11
125. 22:25or 15 or whenever the [ __ ] up [ __ ] in their life happened that shut that dream down. And you reintroduce them to that hope
126. 22:36and that possibility because of these tools. And then maybe, just maybe, getting that idea out of their head and looking at it
127. 22:45in that chalice, they go, "You know what? I'm gonna see what I can do with this." And they start playing with AI
128. 22:51some more. And it gets stronger and it gets more defined. And they're like, "Oh, well, maybe I should go over here
129. 22:58and see what that looks like. Maybe I should go over here and see what that sounds like." And then it gets good enough that
130. 23:05they're like, "You know what? I'm going to start to talk to people about this. I'm going to put this idea in the world. That act
131. 23:17of shifting your relationship with AI from this thing that is out to get you to this thing that is there to amplify you is a profound shift
132. 23:29and it's going to change the [ __ ] world. And so when you talk about balancing the good versus evil, we're so
133. 23:36early in AI right now that you understand the the uh the concept of like like big ocean liners. If if if a big ocean liner coming from
134. 23:48England, if they shift their their heading by half a degree, it is completely imperceptible to anyone on the ship.
135. 23:58You're still heading toward America. you shift it half a degree. By the time you get to America, you're in Brazil, right?
136. 24:06You're in you're in South America. That half a degree difference completely altered the course of that ship.
137. 24:14It'll be thousands of miles off course. We're at a time right now in history where AI is going to go one of two
138. 24:26directions. Like it ain't going away. that I'm that that I know. So, it's not going away. If people treat it like the enemy and
139. 24:37just sit back and don't do anything with it, it's like turning this thing half a degree toward the shitty. If someone if if if the person
140. 24:51I'm so thankful for this group exists. My circle is so tired of me talking about AI. Yes. That's why we're [ __ ]
141. 24:58here. Hang out here. Be the [ __ ] weirdo right now. Cuz I'm telling you, here's the the there's this other half a degree.
142. 25:08If we each of each one of us, what are there 36 people there, 25 there? There probably some overlap there. So maybe 40
143. 25:14people here. If the 40 people on this call tonight start treating AI like it's an an extension of them, an
144. 25:22amplification of them, and say, "Well, what do I really want in this world?" We've all got hopes and dreams. What is
145. 25:28yours? It doesn't [ __ ] matter. It can be anything. Put that into AI. See what comes back. See what it does to you. Here, here's
146. 25:39another another insight I had, another epiphany I had about AI. The world is a dangerous place, right?
147. 25:54And ideas are fragile. Have you ever noticed that if you're in a room full of people, even people you trust, friends, family, co-workers,
148. 26:10you have this little idea and then at some point you go, "Um, hey, I I have an idea." And then you put that idea in the world. What happens?
149. 26:22Two people roll their eyes. One person's like, "That's cool." Which you take as I don't give a [ __ ] And then one person's like,
150. 26:35and that little look they give you, that little maybe that's the person you actually trusted and they kind of [ __ ] all over your
151. 26:43idea, even if they don't say anything. And that that idea, what that idea does in your head is it goes z and it shuts down.
152. 26:53What happens with AI is that you put your idea in and it's like, "Gee, boss, that's a great idea." You're like, "Oh,
153. 27:03and thought of that." And you put in some more and says, "Oh, that's really good. Have you thought about this?" And
154. 27:09you go back and forth and what you end up having is this amplifying conversation without judgment. And and there's a lot of people like,
155. 27:20well that's sickopantic and that's dangerous and this and that and in certain contrast in certain contexts
156. 27:26sickensy you know always saying yes is a bad thing. But in in the in the fragile embriionic stage of ideas
157. 27:37having an ever supportive entity that you can bounce ideas back and forth with is incredibly powerful. It has changed my brain.
158. 27:48Like I'm a creative guy. I've got ADHD. I've got a hundred [ __ ] ideas an hour, right? My relationship with putting them in the
159. 27:58world is very fraught with a lot of anxiety because I don't want to put it out there because I know someone's going to [ __ ]
160. 28:04on it. And what's happened with chat GPT and with tools like it is that I put those ideas out there in the privacy of my own little world
161. 28:14and it amplifies them. And what it allows me to do is actually look at them objectively and then I get to be the one
162. 28:22to say is it good or not. You know Rick Rubin talks about the audience comes last. The audience doesn't matter or the audience comes
163. 28:31last. And what he means by that is he's going to take this idea and if he thinks about what's the audience going to think
164. 28:37of that, it'll completely destroy that idea. He says it it's not about them. It's about him. It's about him looking at
165. 28:47that idea and going, "Do I like this?" But you got to get it out of your head before you can do that. And so what I would argue is that if
166. 28:59you're balancing the good and the bad of AI is that we acknowledge the bad. It might be dangerous. The robots might kill us.
167. 29:09It might It definitely uses a lot of energy. Let's hope they come up with fusion and solve climate change and all
168. 29:15the [ __ ] it needs to happen. Um it was trained unethically. Absolutely. That's all bad [ __ ] and it's not going away.
169. 29:28So maybe, just maybe, if we use it in a way that taps into our potential, that butterfly effect of us taking one of
170. 29:37those nason ideas out of our head and putting it in the [ __ ] world will shift AI half a degree to the good over time.
171. 29:48And that half a degree might make all the difference. So that's my soapbox for this [ __ ] I think AI is the wise earnest sounding
172. 29:58board that's absolutely unique to humanity. Well, you know, you know what's funny, Kuno? I I hear a lot of people talk about,
173. 30:07you know, AI can't feel, AI can't be creative, AI can't be this, AI can't be that. What they're what they're talking about
174. 30:16is I wish I had a physical calculator. The mechanism of what generative AI is is a calculator. So when people talk about a calculator
175. 30:31can't be creative, they're correct. They're absolutely correct. A calculator can't have feelings. Absolutely correct.
176. 30:41But what they're missing is the real significance of this particular calculator. the the um the transformer the the the
177. 30:53particular kind of math that Google invented that sits underneath all of the generative AI tools we use today all of
178. 31:00the things that are doing this magical [ __ ] is actually well mathematically it's not simple but conceptually it's quite simple you type
179. 31:09in a prompt it creates a probability a waiting of some token which is a fragment of information in thousanddimensional
180. 31:20mathematical space and it figures out which of those tokens is the most likely to be the right next token. So that's the mechanism.
181. 31:32But what's in that thousand dimensional mathematical space is where the magic is. It's trained on all of the output of us,
182. 31:43the collective intelligence of humanity that's been put on the internet for the past 70 or 80 years. Like every library, every museum, every
183. 31:54blog post, every shitty [ __ ] text you did, like just all of it is in there. And it's all been vacuumed up and put into this magical bubble
184. 32:05that when we interact with it, the mechanism is a calculator. But what is being reflected back to us is humanity. It's us.
185. 32:20That's [ __ ] insane. And it it's the only thing that actually makes sense. If you look at how it works
186. 32:31mechanically, you're like, there's no [ __ ] way that this cold, shitty calculator can do what it's doing. It's doing what
187. 32:44it's doing because what it was trained on. And so what happens is if you AI your why, if you put your purpose into
188. 32:52this thing, it's essentially humanity reflecting that back to you and amplifying it because everyone's thought
189. 32:58of some version of whatever idea is coming out of your head. And so it all gets reflected back at you in this sort
190. 33:04of crystallized way and you can go, "Holy [ __ ] that's cool." Or, "Eh, that's not great." All right, Sunonny. Um, wow. Let's see.
191. 33:19I went to a friend's play last week. It got me thinking what ways actors can leverage AI instead of being afraid of
192. 33:25it replacing them. Absolutely. Well, I'll tell you one way. I have a degree in acting. One way is actors could get into AI and
193. 33:34get inspired about a story and write a [ __ ] musical, which is I've spent the last year and a half working on a
194. 33:40musical about AI intended for the Broadway stage. So, I want to hire a bunch of actors and musicians to go do
195. 33:48this play about AI. So, that's a thing. Imagine using AI the the real time rendering capabilities of something like Ca or Deco here
196. 34:00where you have an improv company. You could have a a theatrical performance where the audience contributes ideas and
197. 34:07one of the performers is a prompter. So you have actors, you have prompters, and then you have projectors and and a
198. 34:14sound system. And so the prompter is making music in real time, making images in real time, making videos in real
199. 34:21time, and the actors are improving in real time. There's a whole new kind of theater to be invented. So like tons of
200. 34:28[ __ ] there. Pinned comment from Sunny. Uh, wait, pinned. Wait, where? On Streamyard. Pinned. Oh, Sunny. one of
201. 34:39the best definitions of embedded models um and LLMs I've ever heard. Oh, thank you, Sunny. Wow, thank you. That's the Wow.
202. 34:52Um that's so vulnerable. Thank you for sharing. Ideas die on the vine. Yeah. Thank Thanks, Sunny. I mean, listen, I like
203. 35:03I learned this year. I I always told myself that well, for years I told myself my career has no throughine. It
204. 35:11was just random. And then in my 40s, maybe 50s, I realized, no, my my career's always been at the intersection of technology and
205. 35:21storytelling. And I realized this year that that that's not quite right. There's a nuance to it. Tik Tok pin. All right, I'll be
206. 35:28there in a second. Um, my career has always been at the intersection of of high technology and self-expression
207. 35:40because when I first saw the internet, like the the first thing I thought is I got all these ideas. You could take
208. 35:45these ideas, you could put them in this thing, and then people could see those ideas. Holy crap. Like the the like the
209. 35:50revelation of of the worldwide web was not about the technology or what it did. It was about every human being now has
210. 35:58the possibility of taking their stuff and putting it out there, but there's a prerequisite to it. You need to be good
211. 36:05at getting ideas out of your head. You need to be a good writer or a good illustrator or a good musician.
212. 36:12And so, a lot of people got to the they would start a blog and realize, ah, I suck at writing. I hate this. And it
213. 36:21would they would shut it down, right? a blog like a podcast has what on average nine episodes before they fail before they shut down.
214. 36:30So what's happening with AI is AI if you treat it like an augment an amplifier of your ideas all those
215. 36:38gaps that you had in execution can now be filled in. So you have no excuses anymore. It can write, it can make music, it can do
216. 36:47this, it can do that. Well, what do you want it to do? That comes back to you. AI, your why. Put your purpose in there
217. 36:54and then figure out what the [ __ ] you want it to do and put it in the world. Why not? Um, Kavuno, your storytelling and flare
218. 37:02is absolutely why the lessons stick and why we're addicted. Oh, thank you very much. Um, what was that pin thing
219. 37:07before? Dave K, could AI be effective if it didn't have access to the internet? It's Wait, I know that's the purpose. Curious. Um,
220. 37:23well, I don't I don't quite understand what you're asking, but could a could AI have been create could generative AI So, okay. So, so let me
221. 37:36explain let me explain generative AI as distinct from AI. So, so classical AI as they call it has been around for
222. 37:45decades. It's in facial recognition. It's in Google maps. It's everywhere, right? It's everyone's talks about it
223. 37:50and this is one of the confusing things about AI right now because in order to play in the in the in the classical AI
224. 37:58game, you really did have to be a mathematician. You really did have to be a probability data scientist nerdy geeky Stanford MIT
225. 38:08nerd. You did you just did you had to be good at that [ __ ] You had to be an engineer. Um and and what happened was they would
226. 38:16have these mo these frameworks these AI frameworks and then you would bring your data. So even just that concept what do
227. 38:25you mean I bring my data? If you're not a data scientist that doesn't make any sense but like if you want to bring
228. 38:31mamogram you know scan data you would put it into one of these things and you would create a mammogram reading
229. 38:38vertical AI. So classical AI was vertical and it was bring your own data chat GPT starting with GPT1, GPT2 and
230. 38:48then finally GPT3 started to this thing started to get real. The P in GPT is pre-trained. So generative it's going to make [ __ ]
231. 39:04Pre-trained. You don't need to bring data. We've got you covered. We've got all the data. And then transformer is
232. 39:10the is the mechanism the tool that they they use to do all this that pre-trained piece you you could not have created
233. 39:19chat GPT without the internet right you needed to go get all well technically you could you could have gotten all the
234. 39:27books in the world from all the books of the li all the libraries of the world and scanned them all and put them into a
235. 39:32database and embedded them and put them into a thing and you could have technically done it without the internet
236. 39:38just wouldn't have been practical. But you can today you can take a small um large language model and if it's small
237. 39:52enough you can put it on your laptop or you can even there are some that are small enough that you can put on your
238. 39:57phone and they don't have to be connected to the internet and they are absolutely useful. So imagine um if you're out in the woods and
239. 40:08you've got all of the survival literature of all of the history of humanity is sitting on your phone and
240. 40:17you get yourself in a pickle out in the woods. Well, if you don't have internet connection, you can't Google it. But if
241. 40:23you had a large language model on there and say, "Here's the situation. I just broke my leg and da da and did this and
242. 40:29it turned purple and my left toes numb. it will know what's going on. So, it can absolutely be valuable and useful if
243. 40:38it's not connected to the internet. Now, if you're in the woods and you say, "Hey, who won the Lakers game tonight?"
244. 40:44It's not going to know that, right? So, it can't get up-to-date information, but it doesn't mean it's invaluable. So, I
245. 40:50hope that makes sense. Sunny, you originally the caption said AI your wives, not AI your wife. That's hilarious.
246. 41:03That's great. Silverf Fox, we had Encyclopedia Britannica on our kitchen shelf growing up. Now this. Yeah.
247. 41:10I mean, think about I I don't Do you remember this as a kid? If if you're kind of Gen X age, like you remember at
248. 41:17least your grandparents had the encyclopedia kit, right? And maybe you did. Um, and and uh I remember just feeling
249. 41:28overwhelmed with like all of those books had all of this information. Someone had to write all that stuff in there. And if
250. 41:36you think now about what's in an a printed encyclopedia set, it is minuscule to like what Wikipedia was, which is minuscule compared to what
251. 41:53Google had indexed, which is minuscule compared to all of the scraping and database mining and what however they got all their data and
252. 42:05jammed it into these models. The the mass of knowledge like the fact that you can just go to lovable right
253. 42:13now, lovable.dev. If you haven't done this, go right now to lovable.dev dev and type in make me um an Asteroids
254. 42:28video game clone and make it just like the standup arcade game from the 80s with vector graphics and sounds and
255. 42:35great physics and just watch what it does. Like we now have these tools that know all the code and can do all the code.
256. 42:51It's bonkers. Bonkers, man. All right. I didn't realize this was going to be a a tirade Thursday.
257. 43:08Look up something you like in the encyclopedia. Exactly. We need to keep my birthday. Much web copy is glorified. Wait, we need to keep my
258. 43:20birthday. Much web copy is glorified advertising. Thrash Thursday. There you go. Trumpy Wumpy. Hey, Trumpy Wumpy.
259. 43:31That's a name. I like it. Sunonny Yun loves Lovable. Lovable is a [ __ ] amazing [Music] Do you know how many times in my life
260. 43:46like Listen, I have a tech company. We have an iOS app. We have an Android app. We've got all this technology we built.
261. 43:51I'm effectively the product person. I'm the inventor of the idea, but I didn't actually code it myself. Do you know how
262. 43:57many times in my life I've had an idea for an app that was like a really simple app? I was like, "Ah, it' be cool if" and
263. 44:05then and then I just shut it down. because I know a I don't know coding, b I don't really know anyone that knows
264. 44:15coding and anyone that I know that knows coding is working and they don't want to do my stupid shitty idea or they want to get paid for it.
265. 44:23So most of my ideas historically have never made it the [ __ ] out of my head. That's not true anymore.
266. 44:34Not true anymore. Britannica. No, it was World Book. That was great.
267. 44:49All right. I don't know what that quite means, producer Brandon, on the post-it note. So, if you could clarify that.
268. 44:56Compton's Encyclopedia. I mean, think about these names. Britannica, Compton's, like if you're old enough to
269. 45:02know, like those were big ass brands. Those were powerful brands. The internet absolutely [ __ ] destroyed them.
270. 45:11Oh, nice. We got some folks from Bangalore, India in the house. I I hope you're enjoying. Welcome. I assume it's
271. 45:17kind of breakfastish over there. Anybody know what time it is in Bangalore? Well, the folks in Bangalore do,
272. 45:25but welcome. Is it lunch or is it breakfast? They're they're eight hours ahead. That doesn't help me. What time
273. 45:31is it? Oh, it's like 4 in the morning. No, it's got to be more than that. I loved encyclopedias. Chat GPT does. Oh, man.
274. 45:4410:30. All right. Just passed breakfast. Very nice. Hopefully your work watching the watching the AI learning lab. Um,
275. 45:55yeah. I mean, I don't know what to talk about now. I I'll I'll share another thing and and this is this is a really important one.
276. 46:12um when I first started the AI salon. So I started the AI salon the same week that chat GPT came out and
277. 46:25as I thought about like who's it for the the only thing that was clear to me was people who are curious about AI.
278. 46:34And it's still for those people, right? If you're curious about AI, this is a place for you. If you're one of those
279. 46:39annoying people that's like, "Hey, hey, did you see what happened with Chat GPT?" And all your friends are like,
280. 46:44"Could you stop talking about AI?" If you're that person, the AI salon's for you. And by the way, can Brandon,
281. 46:52can you pop up the uh the URL? By the way, we just launched a brand new website. So, if you haven't been there, go to the salon.ai
282. 47:01and see our brand new, it's still got a couple of bugs in it. We're still doing a little debugging, but it's a brand new
283. 47:07website that's got feeds that come from our community. It's really exciting. It's got events listed there. So, if you
284. 47:14haven't been to the AI salon, go check it out. For the first two years of this generative AI stuff, and it's down. Oh, really?
285. 47:25Maybe it is. They might be fixing something. The salon.ai. No, it's good. The salon.ai is live. I don't know what you're talking about
286. 47:39there, producer Brandon. Um, yeah, it looks great. It looks great. Great. Great. It looks great, I tell you.
287. 47:52It's great, I tell you. All right. No, we're on Mighty Networks. This is just our our website. Like so so we had
288. 48:03Mighty Networks and our website was just this sort of little scab of a website. Um we spent the past few months like
289. 48:09really figuring out what do we want the website to be. So there's a whole advocacy area on it. We've got live
290. 48:14feeds about our events and posts and things like that and it and it really just talks about what it is. Trumpy
291. 48:21Wumpy. I find people who are not educated or at least don't like to read are not interested in AI. I agree with
292. 48:28that Trumpy Wumpy. But if you haven't played with it yet and you you might not be able to immediately um because of of uh
293. 48:41just because it's new is you should go download the new Sora app from chat GPT from OpenAI. Mighty Networks is better than Discord.
294. 48:50I agree. Um, so now three sites to go to. No, the Mighty Networks is the only site to go to. The Discord, the Discord's just
295. 49:04still alive. You don't don't go to the Discord site. U Mighty Networks is where the community is. This is the the
296. 49:10websites. This is just for people who are like, "What's the AI salon? We want to be able to go." Um, I know a lot of readers that don't
297. 49:19welcome anything new. So, so let me let me address the the the comment about about um about smart people um
298. 49:30being the only ones that that can play with AI or the only the only ones who are interested in using it. There's
299. 49:35going to be a lot of on-ramps to um there's going to be a lot of on-ramps to AI and a lot of them a lot of people are
300. 49:45going to use AI and not use not not know they're using it. So, one of the things that Chat GPT just did was they launched
301. 49:54Sora 2 and they launched this Sora app, Sor A on the iOS app store and it's like Tik Tok except you have to
302. 50:03use AI generated videos and and the immediate response from people was oh that's AI slop and there's there's three
303. 50:11other platforms that now have vertical scrolling video AI generated video things. So this is going to be a new form of AI generated content
304. 50:22from video models or from audio models. Sunno is one of the one that's that's got one. What OpenAI did that's [ __ ]
305. 50:31brilliant. It's [ __ ] brilliant is they created this thing called cameos. And what cameos are is when you log in,
306. 50:40you make a profile of yourself and the first thing you do is you record your face. you you basically hit the record
307. 50:47button and it has you read three numbers 66 44 22 or 23 whatever like they're you know they're not always the same but
308. 50:55just three two digit digit numbers and then it's like turn your head to the right turn your head to the left and you're done
309. 51:02and then it creates a little icon of you and that's your cameo and then when you're prompting in a video you could say I want to be I want
310. 51:14to Show me in a bowling alley. You click on your little icon and it types in your name, your username, Kyle Shannon is at
311. 51:22a bowling alley talking about hot sauce. Push the button and it generates me bowling talking about hot sauce. It's
312. 51:31[ __ ] hilarious. And I'm going to share that. A lot of people's first experience with AI, they're likely not going to know it's AI,
313. 51:42but they're going to be like, "Oh, that's kind of magical. That's kind of cool. And there's something about the
314. 51:46simplicity of just click on your friend's face and now you can make a video about them. No one's going to talk
315. 51:53about AI slop. No one's going to talk about energy conservation or how much [ __ ] water the system takes
316. 52:00or the robots are going to kill us. They're going to make meme videos of their friends. And what they're going to
317. 52:06talk about is, "Oh, that one was funny where you farted in the hot tub." That's what they're going to talk about.
318. 52:14And then what are they going to do next? Huh? Wait, I So, could I just make a video of like a cartoon of of me and the kids?
319. 52:26That would be kind of fun, you know? I always I always I had an idea that was like South Park. I always wanted to make
320. 52:32like a cartoon. Like, what if I made like a short a short form version of my cartoon? I always dreamed about People
321. 52:43are going to stumble into their passion. People are going to stumble into the fact that these tools can amplify them.
322. 52:56So the people that are afraid of AI right now are making assumptions about it. One of the assumptions is I need a math degree.
323. 53:04I need to be an engineer. I need to know prompt engineering. Oh my god, that sounds awful. You don't need to know prompt engineering.
324. 53:19If you want to, you can. If you want to start building AI tools, it would probably be a good thing to know and understand what a structured
325. 53:27prompt is. But there's going to be tools out there where you're just going to click on [ __ ] just like the internet. Click, click,
326. 53:34click. Internet, internet, internet. It's going to be like that. Tap tap tap. AI. AI AI. How many people are here? 41 37 over there.
327. 53:48Yeah. Jib Jab. Exactly. AI jib jab. It's totally AI jip jab. Let's go look at some Tik Tok question. I don't see it.
328. 54:05There's not a pin right now. Okay. Mary Mary, so if you have to a video with the kids, do you have to do the kids cameo
329. 54:17requirements? I don't I don't that I don't know. I think you can upload a picture of the kids and just say make a
330. 54:24video with me and the kids. Um, let me share something here. If you haven't seen these Sora videos, they're [ __ ] crazy, champ.
331. 54:37What is your deal? All right, hang on. I gotta go do something evil with the doggy. Come on. He doesn't want
332. 55:07I don't know what's up with that dog. That dog's a mess. All right. Am I sharing my screen? Yeah. All right.
333. 55:13Black bar. I know. Producer Brandon. Um, you can just make crazy ass. Oh, their sight's still really hosed.
334. 55:28All right. We'll start we'll start with the classic. [Music] Welcome to the Great Renaissance. You know that word has AI in it, right?
335. 55:42[Music] >> All right, we'll we'll leave that image on screen. Question. Um, suggestions on how to get great ideas with the new
336. 55:51Sora. Okay, so my my mantra in 2025 has been stop using your brain so much. Um, Da da. Um,
337. 56:07okay. Here here's a here's the thing that I do whenever I whenever I encounter something like Sora here. We'll just we'll just do it live.
338. 56:17Do it live. So, I'm going to switch over to chat GPT. Go new chat. And then I'm gonna I'll say um I want you to give me
339. 56:36a pile of ideas for the new Sora 2 video generation model. Um
340. 56:53and then I'll give it a little bit of parameters. The clips are 10 seconds long and can have one to 10 shots
341. 57:08per clip. act as a um social media expert and
342. 57:23um movie director and cinematographer. And you're like, "Well, wait, someone can't be a social media person and a
343. 57:34cinematographer." Oh, yes, they can because I just made it. So, I'm I'm going to mash these people together and they're going to be [ __ ]
344. 57:43rock stars. Act as a social media expert and movie director and cinematographer um and um writer and come up with
345. 58:0120 prompts that include characters, shots, locations, and a concept
346. 58:15that will be, I don't know, funny, uh, dramatic or moving and just go see what it does.
347. 58:32All right, Kyle typing conversation. I know. It's miserable, isn't it? Oh, yeah.
348. 58:49Um, funny concepts, elevator etiquette goes wrong, location, modern elevator, stranger shots, tight closeup, ends with
349. 58:58Okay, this isn't a great prompt. Like, but let's take a shitty prompt here. Okay, so here's the Wait, fix this tab.
350. 59:06Oh, yeah. Sora Sora the Sora web app is so bad that it's we probably just have to start over, but that's all right. Um,
351. 59:15elevator etiquette goes wrong. Modern office elevator. Three strangers, one holding a giant inflatable duck. Tight
352. 59:21closeup on awkward faces as the duck squeaks. Ends with doors opening to a full boardroom waiting. Okay, sure, why not?
353. 59:31So, let's go to Sora. That thing died. So, let me kill that tab. Create a new tab. Sora do. Okay. So, here's our little prompt. So,
354. 59:45I'm literally just going to paste it in and and go make it go. This is this is how you do it. Now, here's another thing
355. 59:52you can do with chat GBT. Oh, wait. I didn't share this. Anyway, I just So, what I just did is I went to Sora. I put
356. 59:59in the prompt that I copied out of chat GBT and hit build. So, we'll see if that works. Now, here's another thing you can do. Um,
357. 1:00:09so I now know that I've got um Vicky Baptiste is at Vicki. I know that I'm in there as Kyle Shannon. I know that Sam
358. 1:00:16Alman is in there as Samma. So, I'm gonna say now I want you to include Kyle at Kyle Shannon
359. 1:00:36Vicky at Vicky and Sam at Samma. Um, as characters in your scenes
360. 1:00:54also give more detail for the shots. Okay.
361. 1:01:09Oh, wait. So you say uh for for the characters you have to use their at names.
362. 1:01:23So have it rewrite them. We did some fun ones today. All right, let's see the elevator duck.
363. 1:01:38Let's do another one. Drone delivery duel. Wrong yoga class. This could be good. Rooftop at sunrise. Vicky leads
364. 1:01:46yoga. Kyle Shannon in a Spider-Man costume. And Sam filming. Okay, this one's good. Okay. So, so the
365. 1:02:00the the uh how do you generate ideas? Don't generate ideas. have chat GBT give you ideas and then just curate the ones
366. 1:02:08that like are the least shitty. All right, so now we'll go back to here. Oh, wait. I didn't switch my tabs again.
367. 1:02:17Anyway, sorry. I was just at I was just at chat GPT. Here's all the stuff I made. Sorry about that. Bad bad host. Um there's my
368. 1:02:29there's my prompt. So, I'm gonna pop that in there. Unable to generate. You're not allowed to access one or more mentioned cameos.
369. 1:02:40Which which ones? Oh, maybe maybe we made too many too many salmon ones. Let me try it again.
370. 1:03:00Let me let me get rid of this. Let me just see if I can generate a Sama one on his own. Sama um is bowling talking about hot sauce
371. 1:03:17added to Q. All right. So, what's not working? Oh, the quack. The the first elevator one's done. added the queue.
372. 1:03:33Oh, this is already crapped out. God, this is horrible. Um,
373. 1:03:48[Music] all right, let's go look at our guys pointed
374. 1:04:04Sorry, it's uh hard to keep quiet. >> Mhm. >> Is that >> Oh, [Laughter] >> sorry. It's uh hard to keep quiet. >> Mhm.
375. 1:04:19>> Is that >> Sorry, it's uh hard to keep quiet. Oh, that's good. We'll post that one.
376. 1:04:35>> Sorry, it's uh hard to keep quiet. >> All right, so let me try to make that big. Wrong. Yoga class. Rooftop. Vicki
377. 1:04:44leads yoga. Oh, maybe I don't have Vicky's permission. Wait, here's Danielle. Let me add Danielle to the mix here. Okay,
378. 1:04:56hang on. Sorry, Vicki. Oh, but I probably don't have Danielle's. Did I follow Danielle? I don't know if
379. 1:05:01Danielle's got her She might have her stuff turned off. Hopefully, she doesn't. Let's get rid of Vicki.
380. 1:05:07Vickiy's probably got her privacy turned on. That's probably what's going on. Vickiy's Vickiy's smart. She's like, I
381. 1:05:15turn By the way, if you want to just go make one of me, you can. I turned it on. Everyone can can deep fake me. Uh uh.
382. 1:05:26Where's Vicki? Okay, here's here's Vicki. Let's get rid of this. Put in Danielle. According to Side Hustle, Sora codes work more than once.
383. 1:05:37Yeah, you get four of them. You get four Sora codes per account that you can give out. Same one can work multiple times. I
384. 1:05:53think it's the same code, but it's it the counter counts down on against your account, but maybe they upped it from four to
385. 1:06:02something higher. Um, but it's always the same code that I've been giving out. All right. Oh, here's Vicki. Vicki
386. 1:06:09centered. Let's get rid of Vicky. Sorry, Vicki. I hope if Danielle doesn't have her her stuff turned on, I'm going to be cranky.
387. 1:06:18All right, go. Yes. All right, we're in. It's the same code. You get the Sora ones and it can be used four times.

395. 1:07:56please. Sam Sam, everyone can deep fake Kyle. It's so stupid of me to put it out there, but who gives a [ __ ]
396. 1:08:07I don't know. Doesn't matter. Wait, why can't we not hear this now? Oh, cuz audio's off. >> Yeah, whatever.

403. 1:08:57that Where do I go for my notifications? Look at this one that we did today for uh for the AI readiness project.
404. 1:09:04>> The AI readiness training program is the only on demand AI education program I would ever recommend. Mostly because I
405. 1:09:10created it with my friends. If you're ready to level up, this is where you start. The AI readiness training program
406. 1:09:15is the only ondemand AI education program I would ever recommend. Mostly because I created it with my friends. If
407. 1:09:22you're ready to level up, this is where you start. The AI readiness training program is the only on demand.
408. 1:09:28>> Ready to get moving? As ready as these hips let me. Watch this kick though. >> Look solid. Keep it smooth.
409. 1:09:33>> Smooth. I can do. Graceful's another story. >> You're doing great. I'm feeling it in these lunges. >> Good. Means we're alive.

411. 1:09:43>> Smooth. I can do. Graceful's another story. >> Ellen, how do I actually run Open AI? Every day feels like chaos.
412. 1:09:50>> Run it like a prompt. Clarity in, clarity out. >> Wow. How do I actually run Open AI? >> Oh my god. super into lately is hot.
413. 1:10:03Thing I'm super into lately is hot sauce. I bring a little bottle with me. Sometimes even when I'm out doing stuff
414. 1:10:07like this, I like something with real flavor, not just heat. Like a smoky chipotle that still has a nice tang.
415. 1:10:11That was a strike. Thing I'm super into lately is hot sauce. I bring >> crazy. That's That'll fly again.
416. 1:10:26Just need a minute to catch my breath. We're still in one piece. That's what counts. >> That was Amelia Heheart after she crashed landed.
417. 1:10:38We can We can find all sorts of historical footage. Um, let's see if there's any good ones in here. This one's kind of interesting.

419. 1:11:10Another decade still ticking. The AI readiness training program is the only on demand AI education program I would
420. 1:11:18ever recommend. Mostly because I created it with my friends. If you're ready to level up, this is where you start. >> Vicki, how do I find
421. 1:11:27>> AI readiness training program is the only on demand AI education program I would ever recommend. >> No, that's me.
422. 1:11:35>> The AI readiness training program is the only ondemand AI education program I would ever recommend. Mostly because I
423. 1:11:41created it with my friends. If you're ready to level up, this is where you start. AI readiness. >> Now I've followed her Tik Tok pin. Dr.
424. 1:11:50J, I made one about I don't see a Tik Tok pin. If there was a Tik Tok pin there, I missed it. I missed it. What
425. 1:11:57was it? Tell me that Tik Tok pin. Tell me that pin. You crashed Sora, Kyle. No, their website, their the web version of
426. 1:12:05Sora is so bad it's unusable. If you look on my regulars, if you look on a regulars, I switched some Oh, stitched
427. 1:12:12them together today. All right, let's go to the salon. Um, so if you go to community.thesalon.ai, that's where I'm headed.
428. 1:12:45Do you get do we get codes to share when we get signed up? Yes. When when if some if you get a Sora code um wait that's not
429. 1:13:00Oh, I see what I did wrong. Um, if you get a Sora code and you sign up, then when you log into your app,
430. 1:13:13you've got an invite button and it'll give you a code and you can share that four times or people can activate. Four four
431. 1:13:22different people can activate it. People have no idea what's coming. They don't they don't have any idea what's coming. It's crazy.
432. 1:13:34Okay. The pin is back. Check your tabs. It's not. Mind your tabs. Yes. Yes, sir. Sir. Yes, sir. Okay. So, here I am at
433. 1:13:47the AI salon community and Vickiy's in here. There's Storybine. I've been here all along. Yeah, I was absent. I was out drinking. So, yes.
434. 1:13:59Where's Kyle? Who's the Is this uh Oh, there's Let's see. Sam's mom. Oh, this is a pretty good one. This is one that uh Lori Blair

453. 1:18:26>> I'm standing in front of three storage. >> Got to make sure this place doesn't collapse. >> Sam rolled out this new marketing crew.
454. 1:18:32Half Gen X, half boomers. What's your take? Honestly, it's smart. Those are the folks who grew up with radio jingles
455. 1:18:38and desktop modems. They know how to sell truck. >> Sam rolled out there to get moving. >> As ready as these hips let me.
456. 1:18:43>> Readiness training program is the only on demand AI education program I would ever recommend. Mostly because I created
457. 1:18:48it with my friends. If you're ready to level up, this is where you start. Check it out at reready for readiness training
458. 1:18:54program is the only on demand AI education program I would ever recommend. Mostly because I created it with my friends. If you're ready,
459. 1:19:00>> Unbelievable. It just crashed again. Um, let me show you the the uh the new AI Salon website because I'm pretty dang happy with it.
460. 1:19:11[Music] Where curiosity meets creation. So, this is the about page. So, if you if you go to the homepage where where AI
461. 1:19:26amplifies your genius. So, that that's kind of the AI your Y stuff. Um, we got, you know, practice the cycle of
462. 1:19:35AI readiness. We got that right up there. We've got upcoming events. So, this is live feeds from the community.
463. 1:19:41So, you can RSVP on Mighty Networks. So, we can just send people now to the to the website and they don't have to join
464. 1:19:49the the network, but if they want to RSVP, they can join the community. Um, and then there's some latest posts
465. 1:19:55from the community. So, these are are curated posts from the community. So, super excited about that. Latest policy
466. 1:20:03stuff, whatever we're doing policy-wise that Daisy's leading is here. What we value. So, we've got our values right on the homepage.
467. 1:20:13Black bar for the Tik Tok people. Now that the AI learning lab site is up, maybe you can fix the sorus site. Try
468. 1:20:20lovable. Yeah, no [ __ ] Um, create excellence is our newest value. And then join the salon. So, that's that
469. 1:20:29page. Isn't that cool? And then we've got about and we talk about the history and here's your new hosts. Liz Miller Gersfeld
470. 1:20:40coming on as the new host. The journey so far, Friends of the Salon. So, that's a bit of a placeholder. The events page is where
471. 1:20:48all the events and gatherings are going to be hosted, but that's again live feeds. Then there's an advocacy section where we've
472. 1:20:57got our our stand on advocacy. So there's our how we uh how we make decisions on what we take stands on. And
473. 1:21:12then there's contact contact info. Boom. Ain't that pretty? Address of this new website is Bang.
474. 1:21:26The salon.ai. Go check it out. That's the AI salon on site, not the AI
475. 1:21:43learning lab site. Oh, did I say AI learning lab site? Sorry. They they get confused in my mind. AI Salon. Think of AI Salon as the
476. 1:21:54umbrella AI learning lab sits somewhere underneath it. But yeah, this is the AI salon website. Sorry about that.
477. 1:22:07But I think it is just beautiful. It's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Looks really nice. Thank you very much. New site's really cool.
478. 1:22:16Uh uh [Music] Okay. All right, everyone. Listen, we've had fun here tonight. We've talked philosophy. We've talked AI.
479. 1:22:32We ruined Brandon's Wi-Fi. Um, tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. Mountain time we've got
480. 1:22:47AI AI Salon office hours and meet and greet. So that's at 11. Um, at 12 if you're a matter a member of the mastermind. Um,
481. 1:23:02we've got the AI founders hangout that's that's at noon. It's half it's a half hour. I'm going to extend that
482. 1:23:10meeting from a half hour to an hour um for mastermind members because I feel like we we just get rolling in that
483. 1:23:17meeting and it's over. So, if you're a mastermind member, tomorrow I can't do it. Someone booked the second half hour.
484. 1:23:24Um, so tomorrow I can't do it, but starting next week that's going to be an hour. Uh oh, video generation failed.
485. 1:23:32Something failed on Sora. It probably hit a community violation for something or other. Um, and then tomorrow night is Friday night
486. 1:23:42date night. It is first Friday, so that means I probably have some gallery duties. I probably have to go gallery
487. 1:23:47hopping with the misses. Um, so I may be late tonight or tomorrow, so it'll probably be 8:30 or 9 Mountain time, but
488. 1:23:55we'll have Friday night date night. So, get the get your nachos ingredients, go buy the extra hot pockets you need, and
489. 1:24:02uh yeah, and you know, we'll do all that happy happy stuff. Happy happy fun ball. All right. All right.
490. 1:24:12Y'all have fun tonight. I don't know if we did anything. I think I just yapped. It was a bit of a yappy.
491. 1:24:23Uh uh. on generating a new C came Cameo video. Um, Sora homework. Well, the the Sora homework would be get yourself a code.
492. 1:24:34Here's my request. If you get yourself a code, share it with people in the AI salon. Whoever your favorite people are
493. 1:24:41in the AI salon, reach out to them and then let's start sharing um, you know, what we're learning from it in the
494. 1:24:48salon, things like that. Like, let let's start spreading the knowledge a bit. Um the the homework would be um start to
495. 1:24:57understand what it can do and what it can't do. Like what's it good at? What's it not good at? Start to figure out
496. 1:25:03where the boundaries of Sora are. I would just play a lot with cameos. I'd play a lot with cameos because
497. 1:25:15they're going to get pe people are going to get really good at these cameos. So imagine like right now I'm just sort
498. 1:25:22of plopping my name in there and generating a video but like what about doing it in different styles in different costumes with different
499. 1:25:29accents in different languages talking about different products um you know sitcom version of me, drama version of
500. 1:25:36me, commercial version of me, motivational speaker version of me, what what do all those look like? Right? So
501. 1:25:44start to explore that with your own cameo. Um, and then start exploring Sora just as a general video model. It is insane
502. 1:25:54how much it knows about the world. It's It's actually kind of crazy. All right. Um, Brandon, producer Brandon, while we were
503. 1:26:06um while we were having fun, he was off vibe coding and and he he made a game. So, let's let's go look at his game. Oh, this is
504. 1:26:18hilarious. All right. Can I share this tab? Yeah, and then I can do this. Brandon, you want to hop up and talk about your game?
505. 1:26:34Yeah. So, uh, tonight's Lovable Builder Hackathon. So, if you didn't know, Lovable is doing seven days of build
506. 1:26:41hack. Tonight was make a game and you get free access to Gemini imagery and Gemini like conversational API during
507. 1:26:49this week. And so I took a classic game Oregon Trail, which most of you will probably recognize, and converted it
508. 1:26:58into the 2025 version of Commuter Trail. >> Commuter Trail. >> Kyle, should we try to get to work? It's It's a pretty quick play.
509. 1:27:06>> Let's go. Okay, passenger one. Okay, we'll we'll go. Brandon is passenger one. Passenger two is Kyle. Very nice. Uh,
510. 1:27:16continue. All right. Music snob. Insist on controlling the radio. One of two. Next passenger. Kyle. Germaphobe. Obsessed with hand
511. 1:27:26sanitizer. Keeps everyone healthy but costs extra cash. Start commute. Crafting your story. Yeah, this is awesome. And so it's it's
512. 1:27:37a text game. Does it have any audio in it? >> No audio. No. Yeah. I No time for audio. I only have 24 hours to build this thing.
513. 1:27:44>> All right. Drive. Drive highway. Take the train. Coffee break. Risky shortcut. We're going risky shortcut, buddy.
514. 1:27:52Forging the underpass. Engine flooded. Oh, wamp wamp w. Your engine is flooded. Tow truck repairs cost $75 and took 50 minutes.
515. 1:28:03This is a disaster. We have 25 bucks left. Continue. Uh, we'll take a coffee break. I'm exhausted. Found money. You found a $20 bill on the
516. 1:28:16cafe floor. Score. This is awesome. There you go, people. You want to make a game? >> And I just want to share that I This is
517. 1:28:28maybe an hour's worth of vibe coding, >> right? >> While producing the learning lab. >> Yeah. So I mean tell tell people like
518. 1:28:38like what's been your experience of vibe coding like like I guess I guess I guess my question is where are you coming up
519. 1:28:44with ideas and then what are you learning about how to like one of my frustrations with vibe coding is the
520. 1:28:50doom loops right where you just it keeps breaking something more and more like what what are your like what are your
521. 1:28:57lessons so far as you've been digging into this? Yeah. So, as far as ideas, you know, they're having a theme of each night. So, if you go to
522. 1:29:05lovable.devcloud, it talks about the contest and all the different things that you can do. I'm talking now, which I don't normally do.
523. 1:29:13So, my dog thinks it's time to go for a walk. So, >> Oh, that's hilarious. Uh but um what we're what we're seeing here is chat GBT
524. 1:29:22is been my home base for iteration and I basically give it a general sense of what I think I can do with the idea and
525. 1:29:29a general direction to run in and have it spit out 10 ideas and if it doesn't like I if I don't like any of those
526. 1:29:35ideas I refine it and have it give me five more then I take those and stack rank them flush them out and so I spend
527. 1:29:41about 20 minutes with chatbt getting to a really good solid idea that that I like >> and then I say give me the levelable
528. 1:29:48prompt for it and then I copy and paste that and I can usually zero shot >> something functional and then from there
529. 1:29:55it's just iterating the colors and the the nuances of it before I push it live. >> That's cool. And the lovable prompt like
530. 1:30:03how how robust are the prompts? Are they simple or >> It is really robust. It gives me about three pages of content that I just copy
531. 1:30:10and paste in. It gives it everything from architecture to UI design to everything that it would need to do its
532. 1:30:17thing. Um, you asked about what to do if it if you get stuck. So, I found that Lovable is really good at single
533. 1:30:24instance updates. So, it's making um if you tell tell it to fix one thing, it does better than trying to fix eight different things.
534. 1:30:33>> Oh, they've got a they've got a light bulb there that's a chat button that you can chat with it and it can think and it
535. 1:30:40can do recursive thinking before it goes um out and changes the code. So, >> oh, >> sometimes I've gotten stuck and I'll
536. 1:30:49say, "Hang on, this was working a little while ago. I want you to stop everything, go back, figure out where
537. 1:30:56this one particular feature broke and went sideways, and just focus all of your energy and effort on fixing that,
538. 1:31:03and don't worry about anything else. That's the most important thing right now. and I put it laser focused on
539. 1:31:08solving one specific problem and it's usually pretty good about breaking that cycle and then I can go back and start
540. 1:31:14building it back up from there. >> Okay. All right. Cool. >> You can also revert back if you if you've bookmarked a previous version,
541. 1:31:20you can also bookmark it and go back and restore previous version if you >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Cool. >> Where you've left off.
542. 1:31:26>> That's groovy. All right. Cool. So, if you haven't played with Vibe Coding yet, go >> I'll post that uh I'll post that game in
543. 1:31:32the salon. But it it's uh it's a it's a lot of fun. All right, commuter trail. Commuter-trail.lovable.app.
544. 1:31:40Beautiful. Thank you, producer Brandon. Let's get on out of here. Let people go sleep. Go do your go do your nappy thing
545. 1:31:47and get to work. I'm iterating with wind surf and chat GBT sonet 4.5. Still can't get a working MVP. Oh, that sucks. Let's
546. 1:31:56play. Whose dog is that? Yeah, that was that was Brandon's dog. We gota we got to get My dog's now sleeping after
547. 1:32:02whining the whole night. Now he's just snoozed out. Um, how was the vacuum? Um, can I get a code? I don't have one. I'm all out. All
548. 1:32:12right. Um, good night tomorrow, Friday. See you at office hours or if you're in the AI Salon mastermind,
549. 1:32:20I'll see you at 12 Mountain Time. Uh, and uh, everyone else, I will see you back here for Friday night date night. I
