1:03 Thank you, Robert Rossy.
1:06 [Music]
1:10 [Applause]

3:50 [Music]
4:02 The morning sun was rising, lighting up
4:06 that battlefield
4:08 where brothers once stood side by side
4:12 till their fates were sealed.
4:15 Johnny left his father's rifle, set his
4:18 sights on Tennessee,
4:22 trying to find the meaning of what
4:25 freedom used to be.
4:30 Shadows of the gray and blue, drifting
4:34 on the breeze.
4:37 Heroes lost to endless time. Did we
4:40 learn what they believe?
4:43 From bull run down to Shiloh, they gave
4:46 all they had to give.
4:50 Shadows of the gray and blue. Do we know
4:54 how to live?
4:57 [Music]
5:02 Mary sat by Shannondo,
5:06 watching time just flow,
5:09 waiting for her William,
5:13 the one she'd always known. He wrote her
5:16 words from battlefields.
5:19 Blood and ink both stain.
5:23 Promised her he'd come back home, but
5:26 nothing stays the same.
5:31 Shadows of the gray and blue drifting on
5:35 the breeze.
5:38 Heroes lost to endless time. Did we
5:41 learn what they believe?
5:44 From Gettysburg to Chattanooga, they
5:47 gave all that they had to give.
5:51 Shadows of the gray and blue. We know
5:55 how to live.
5:57 [Music]
6:13 In Georgia's fields he was running
6:17 traded chains for Union Blue.
6:20 Sam stood tall at Getty'sburg with
6:24 freedom breaking through across the
6:27 ridge where courage stayed.
6:30 under that July sky.
6:33 He knew that there was something more.
6:36 And he held his head up high.
6:42 Shadows of the gray blue drifting on the
6:47 breeze.
6:48 Heroes lost to endless time. Did we
6:52 learn what they believe?
6:54 And from Vixsburg to Apple, they gave
6:58 all they had to give.
7:03 Shadows of the gray blue. Do we know how
7:09 to live?
7:12 [Music]
7:24 Welcome everybody
7:26 to the AI learning lab. It's video
7:29 night. Why not?
7:32 Why not? Um, thanks for the kind words.
7:35 Uh, Stacy Rodriguez, these videos are
7:38 awesome. Awesome. Well, you're on a
7:39 roll. Yeah, these are all pretty much
7:41 videos I made in here or the one I'm
7:44 about to show. Uh Kelly Bosch did the
7:46 video and I did the uh quantum cipher
7:50 song. But is that the next one? Yeah,
7:52 that's the next one.
7:55 Um and then Foobsy said, "Hey." And he
7:57 tried a a link that I or a prompt that I
8:00 put on TikTok and it blew his mind. So
8:03 I'll I'll tell you what that prompt is
8:06 after uh after video night.
8:10 [Music]
8:21 I'm tangled with the beat. Spooky action
8:23 in the booth. Split the atom with a
8:24 pattern. Every parcel burst of truth.
8:26 Superp position in the mission. Fusion
8:28 fusing my intentions. Paralleling every
8:30 line. I'm a prism of dimensions.
8:32 Multi-elabic antics. I'm manic with the
8:34 semantics. My rhymes collide like
8:35 particles. Dynamic and gigantic.
8:37 Oscillating. Dominate. I'm weaving
8:38 quantum state. Spit a verse and watch
8:40 the multiverse reciprocate. I'm discreet
8:42 like planks beat energy and tight
8:44 packets. When I rap, it's math and
8:46 motion flipping flows in the fractals.
8:47 E= NC squ in every letter I write. My
8:50 pen ignites like antimatter when it
8:52 clashes with life. Quick as a flick of a
8:53 wrist, I'm a lyrical catalyst.
8:55 Atomically splitting the script. I'm
8:57 equipped with the mattest whip. Flipping
8:58 the tempo, I bent a knit in a mental
9:00 crescendo. Sending my syllable slicing
9:02 through time like a sharp inuendo.
9:04 Corner precision. I'm ripping the
9:05 rhythm. I'm spitting in prisms visions.
9:06 I'm shifting dimensions with lyrical
9:07 decisions. Accelerate lev thoughts in a
9:10 turbulent spin. I'm the velocity ripping
9:12 apart the facade that you're certain
9:13 you're in. Time dilation and cadence. I
9:15 stretch the seconds I'm pacing.
9:17 Heisenberg with the mic. Uncertainties
9:19 the foundation. Observer effect and
9:20 effect the second I start to speak.
9:22 Collapse reality's potential with every
9:24 word that I tweak. Yo, my flows a
9:26 firmian spinning lyrical collisions.
9:28 Every bar's a quirk sparking a fusion of
9:30 my visions. I'm a wave in a particle.
9:32 Unpredictable art entangled in the
9:34 cipher. Splitting atoms with my heart.
9:35 From wormholes to portals, I'm immortal
9:37 with the schemes through the fabric of
9:39 this rap. I sold the threads of my
9:40 dreams. Dark matter in my patterns
9:42 unseen but colossal black hole soul
9:45 pulling rhythms through the gospel.
9:46 Double the trouble. I'm sacking the
9:47 rubble. My rhymes are combusting,
9:48 speeding and weaving. Believe it. I'm
9:50 leaving your speakers erupting. I'm the
9:52 equation of pace and erasing the limits
9:54 of sound. Taking the crown, breaking the
9:55 bows. I'm a force you can't slow down.
9:57 Rapidly tapping the map of my mind. I
9:59 define every pattern in motion. Bars are
10:01 a bullet. I pull it and shoot it with
10:03 ruthless devotion. I'm the ignition of
10:05 friction depicting a world that is vivid
10:06 and bright. Fire and fury. Got buried a
10:09 track into place at the speed of light.
10:11 [Music]
10:13 [Laughter]
10:18 Shifting perspectives midline like
10:19 quantum flips in my grind. Infinite
10:21 chances to shine. I'm the master of
10:23 spaceime. Every rhymes are singularity
10:25 collapsing the infinite. I'm the big
10:27 bang slang expanding my imprint
10:28 limitless. So step into the quantum
10:30 where the chaos aligns. My bars are
10:32 entropic logic redefining the divine
10:34 from the smallest of particles through
10:36 the cosmos that we know. This is rap at
10:38 its limit. Quantum flow.
10:39 >> Get a glow.
10:41 >> Yeah. Quantum cipher, baby. That one, if
10:44 you don't know the story of that one,
10:46 that um I tried for two years to get
10:49 chat GPT to write lyrics in the style of
10:52 Eminem with this sophisticated double
10:54 and triple antandras and internal rhyme
10:56 schemes. And it could never do it until
10:59 last November. They did a creative
11:02 writing update to chat GPT40.
11:04 and uh just all of a sudden it could do
11:06 it. And so that's what that that's what
11:09 that was.
11:11 And then that was written in Sunno. That
11:13 was done in Suno. Crazy, right?
11:17 [Music]
11:45 I love you.
11:48 [Music]
12:18 A little ode to Ancel Adams.
12:22 Uh, what's going on over here? Do I have
12:25 something weird happening? Yes. Okay.
12:29 You weren't seeing the whole frame on
12:32 Tik Tok.
12:42 Where's
12:50 [Music]
12:59 I'm the quantum gum shoe running through
13:01 sunless tunnels from corners of order
13:03 late in the cop and hanging quarter
13:04 courses of old concepts clutter corners
13:07 stumbling over subtle signals scribbled
13:08 in riddles by thy devils levels of
13:10 gravity unravel rapidly my mind spinning
13:13 like spiral bevels I spot Schrodinger's
13:14 cat half missing half dismissing it
13:16 whispers cryptic Equips these equations
13:18 of KG prisms. Keep listening. Pistol
13:20 whipper principle. Heisenberg's henchman
13:22 flinched uncertain vengeance. Each
13:23 sentence drenches senses intention
13:25 dimensions like repentance. Maxwell's
13:27 demons dealing heat on cold streets.
13:29 Stacking stacked anomalies. I'm
13:30 following photons dropping clues. No
13:33 news crews just economies. Mid classical
13:37 clocks trying to hide inside
13:41 my notebook choking on code words that
13:43 explode into thoughts
13:46 and my eyes on lies. No wise guys can
13:48 disguise these highs and lows. The
13:51 city's glowing in unknown tones. My
13:53 neural groans echoes.
13:56 I interrogate entangles witnesses
13:58 whispering infinite instances of
14:00 influence. Fluid truth salute me.
14:02 Einstein mobilities.
14:12 >> I did silver fox.
14:15 >> This is one where I tried to get it to
14:16 do storytelling as well as sophisticated
14:19 language. Coliseum
14:21 view duality my brutal cue through
14:24 illusions truth diffusion is what
14:34 >> um the Sydney soundtrack is on
14:36 Soundcloud Stacy if you go to Soundcloud
14:39 and search for Sydney an artificial love
14:42 story you'll find the the soundtrack
14:43 there.
14:46 minding this twist
14:53 sparks.
14:55 >> Yeah, I know. This one's too This one's
14:56 too uh too quiet, Vicki, isn't it? The
14:59 levels on this are are bad.
15:03 All right, there's not much video here,
15:04 so we'll we'll move on from this one.
15:06 But that's a good one. I like that one.
15:08 It's just I don't know why that one was
15:09 the levels on that one were so bad.
15:12 Um,
15:27 [Music]
15:40 [Music]
15:52 Another Kelly Bosch video. We made the
15:55 song on the live here one night.
16:04 [Music]
16:13 Cedar Hill is a quiet town
16:17 where the oak trees sway.
16:22 The whistle of the train echoes through
16:25 the day.
16:30 >> People greet you with a nod.
16:34 Nothing ever seems to change.
16:38 Yet the story still unfold.
16:41 Each unique and strange.
16:46 She grew up tough
16:49 in the town we call home.
16:54 Folks never took to her no matter her
16:58 tone.
17:02 Longing to be on the inside,
17:06 longing for love just a little.
17:10 She found herself as a guest in the
17:13 nervous hospital.
17:18 Weird Mary from Cedar Hill.
17:22 She howls when she's blue.
17:27 of sadness and shame under the southern
17:30 moon.
17:35 >> But when the sun sets behind
17:39 those Appalachian hills,
17:43 Mary's voice it carries and the whole
17:47 town chills.
17:51 She walked to the gas station,
17:56 winked at the clerk.
17:59 She stole her a soda. Then she called
18:03 him a jerk.
18:07 In her own little world,
18:11 she floats in the breeze
18:14 [Music]
18:16 among the town's folk who whisper with
18:20 ease.
18:21 [Music]
18:23 In a town that never
18:28 understood her soul,
18:31 she found beauty in the wild. Let her
18:35 story unfold.
18:39 Her laughter echoes in the wind.
18:44 She was never the same.
18:48 Weird Mary from Cedar Hills.
18:52 You'll remember her name.
18:55 [Music]
19:25 Weird Mary. Weird Mary.
19:36 [Music]
19:54 to kill you for a dollar.
19:59 Desperate
20:01 for an end
20:05 to this monotony monotony.
20:12 You look like a warm one. Your future
20:15 all set. Let me lick your pockets. I'll
20:19 take what I can get. I don't need your
20:22 kindness, your contact, your jokes, or
20:25 your pitiful love. Do you have any
20:28 smokes?
20:30 Can't go back to Kansas or three channel
20:33 TV. You know what's coming. Your future
20:37 is me. The rats control the sewer pipe.
20:41 And in this waste, they multiply and
20:44 feed upon their young.
20:47 And here
20:49 they flock.
20:51 They strain.
20:54 They push to be
20:58 much more
21:00 than they can be.
21:04 [Music]
21:06 The eyes like sharks
21:10 that lack
21:12 the light
21:14 to look upon
21:19 their destiny.
21:21 [Music]
21:24 to kill you
21:26 for a dollar.
21:33 Flicker and static feel chilled to the
21:36 bone. This is the channel that leads you
21:40 back home. A dollar is your power. A
21:44 dollar is regret. A dollar is a silence
21:48 your conscience won't forget. And here
21:53 they flock,
21:55 they strain,
21:57 they push to be
22:02 much more
22:04 than they can be.
22:09 eyes like sharks
22:13 that lack
22:16 the light
22:18 to look upon
22:22 their destin
22:24 [Music]
22:28 [Applause]
22:36 to kill you for a
22:40 For a dollar for a dollar.
22:43 >> Nice.
22:45 There's a little trip down memory lane
22:47 for everybody.
22:49 For all you regulars, if you're new
22:51 here, that little parade of videos and
22:54 songs is stuff that I don't know over
22:57 the past year and a half or so, we've
22:59 either made on this channel or I've
23:01 showed off on this channel, things like
23:02 that. I didn't even show um what you
23:06 call it any of the Sydney stuff other
23:08 than that one video from Times Square.
23:12 Um
23:13 all right. Am I showing this? Yes.
23:17 We're going to look at a regulars on the
23:19 AI salon. If you're not on the AI salon,
23:21 get your ass on the AI salon.
23:24 What are you thinking? What are you
23:25 doing with your life? Nice. Down memory
23:28 lane. Love it.
23:31 There's a little Champy. Champy. Champy
23:33 got in on the action with Weird Mary.
23:37 Nice.
23:40 Beauty, beauty, beauty.
23:42 [Laughter]
23:46 Producer Brandon has been faximiled.
23:49 Um,
23:52 all right. What do we want to do
23:53 tonight? I I don't I don't really have
23:56 an agenda.
23:59 There's there's some Perplexity Pro
24:02 stuff. Claude can now edit files.
24:06 Oh, yeah. Um, let me go back to the AI
24:09 salon for a second. So,
24:12 if you're if you're in the AI salon and
24:14 you haven't joined the mastermind
24:16 or if you are um
24:23 if you're thinking about joining the AI
24:25 salon, you should just join the AI
24:26 salon. But we have this thing called the
24:27 mastermind. And the mastermind is a
24:29 subscription area
24:32 um in the salon. And today for
24:34 mastermind members, Cindy [ __ ] and I
24:36 kicked off um week one of the AI
24:40 prototyping club. We had a bunch of
24:41 people in there. There were some
24:42 regulars in there. There were some new
24:44 people in there. Um it was a really good
24:46 it was a really good course. And I
24:48 actually took so if you were here last
24:49 night, I came up with that idea for the
24:52 the 303 prompt walk. a combination of a
24:54 photography walk and a prompting class.
24:58 And so I kind of prototyped building out
25:01 that course uh in in this sprint. So
25:05 this is a 4-week sprint where today was
25:07 the first day, but if you're part of the
25:09 mastermind, you'll have instant access
25:11 to all of the recordings and the
25:12 transcripts and the and the uh the
25:14 presentations.
25:16 Um
25:18 and it was it was a really really fun
25:20 fun uh show today. So, there's three
25:23 more weeks and over the over the
25:25 four-week sprint, you're going to make a
25:29 micro course. And so, it could be a
25:31 micro course you deliver in person. It
25:32 could be something you give on a
25:34 webinar. It could be something you
25:35 ultimately put on a learning management
25:37 system, something like that. But the
25:38 whole idea is to get comfortable with
25:41 building yourself a course where you can
25:42 teach anything. You sort of pick your
25:44 subject. And Cindy does this all the
25:46 time. So, she brought her methodology
25:48 for how she puts these things together.
25:50 So, um, my mom is a new subscriber
25:54 subscriber because she likes Champy.
25:57 Give a shout out to Mary if you if you
25:59 have a second. Hey, Mary. What's
26:01 happening? Welcome, welcome, welcome.
26:02 Let's see if we can get Champy singing a
26:04 little bit here. Champy, come here
26:06 buddy. Champy, come here. Come on. You
26:10 want to sing? You got to sing for Mary.
26:12 We just did Weird Mary.
26:15 [Music]
26:27 See the hill is qu
26:31 sway.
26:33 Whistle of the train echoes through the
26:36 day.
26:37 [Music]
26:48 [Music]
27:00 Well, I heard there was a secret call
27:05 David played and it pleased the Lord.
27:09 You don't really care for music, do you?
27:15 goes like this. The fourth, the fifth
27:18 min fall and a major lift baff
27:22 composing. Hallelujah.
27:27 Hallelujah.
27:30 Hallelujah.
27:34 Hallelu.
27:37 Hallelujah.
27:42 [Music]
27:47 All right, welcome Mary. Thank you for
27:51 joining in the the good fun. Um, okay.
27:54 On deck Perplexity Pro,
27:59 how is it different than Chat Gvt?
28:03 How to get it free?
28:05 Okay,
28:07 good question.
28:09 A lot of these a lot of these models are
28:14 functionally interchangeable at this
28:16 point.
28:17 But the thing that Perplexity Pro well
28:20 the thing that Perplexity has that that
28:22 others
28:24 don't have is that it started its life
28:28 as this hybrid between a web search and
28:31 a large language model. So if you want
28:34 to do research, perplexity is really
28:36 good because it's really good at
28:38 citations. It started its life as this
28:40 weird combo between search and large
28:43 language models. All of the large
28:46 language models at this point have deep
28:48 deep research built into them. So you
28:50 can you can do a lot of the same stuff.
28:53 Um but Perplexity just has a different
28:55 feel. It's just it's just optimized for
28:57 search. Now you can get a year of
29:00 Perplexity Pro for free.
29:03 If you go to your Venmo account, it's
29:06 Venmo, is that right? You go to your
29:08 Venmo account on mobile
29:12 or PayPal.
29:15 And then you go into your subscriptions
29:18 area. Is that right?
29:21 I'm I'm relying on producer Brandon
29:23 here. I can't remember the details.
29:25 Yeah. And then you will see Perplexity.
29:27 And if you basically if you connect
29:29 either your Venmo account or your PayPal
29:31 account to Perplexity, you get a year
29:34 for free of Perplexity Pro. And then you
29:37 also get um access to their Comet web
29:41 browser, which is which which has got
29:43 Perplexity built into the web browser
29:45 itself, which if you don't if you don't
29:49 really know what Perplexity is, you're
29:50 like, "So what does that mean?" What it
29:52 what it basically means is you have a
29:54 web browser that's just like Chrome,
29:56 just like a regular web browser, but you
29:58 now have this sidebar that's a large
30:00 language model that can search any tabs
30:02 you have access to. So if you have if
30:05 you're logged into your email, for
30:07 example, you could have it go search in
30:09 your email for,
30:11 I don't know, some important email that
30:14 you know is in there somewhere. Anyway,
30:17 all right. Fantastic. Fantastic. Um,
30:23 so that's pretty cool. If you haven't
30:26 played with perplexity, it's worth worth
30:28 playing with. Um, I I got I'm get I
30:35 can't I can't make words with my tongue.
30:40 I get I got I get I got um I get I got I
30:45 got a little inspired like watching all
30:47 these old videos. What I realized is
30:50 that a number of those videos that were
30:53 really nice, like that Ancel Adam one,
30:55 Adams one where it was just the black
30:57 and white photos of of landscapes and
31:00 things like that. Um, those were just me
31:03 [ __ ] around in image generation tools
31:05 and then flipping them over to a video
31:07 generation tool. Um, oh did
31:13 it wasn't that long. I did a short
31:15 little video with the with a little dude
31:17 in Midjourney, but I haven't really I
31:19 haven't really used MidJourney to make
31:20 one of those. So, I thought maybe we'll
31:22 go over and do that tonight. Is go to
31:23 MidJourney and
31:26 play around with stylesheets, go
31:28 discover some um
31:31 some uh whatever you call it,
31:34 some new looks and feels. Maybe come up
31:37 with a concept of the kinds of images we
31:40 want to put together in some cool style.
31:43 and then turn that into a music video.
31:46 You can do that if you want. I don't
31:48 know what the hell do you want to do.
31:50 Tik Tok pin. I'm a middle school
31:52 teacher. Hey, Tony. Tony Williams. And I
31:55 teach a class on AI. Far out.
31:59 Thank God.
32:02 I I am so exhausted with our educational
32:06 institutions
32:08 um
32:10 staring in the face of the world's
32:11 greatest most profound knowledge tool in
32:16 the history of humanity and then going,
32:18 "It's okay. We've got a we've we've got
32:20 an AI detector. We're not going to let
32:22 our kids use that that AI slop." It just
32:26 it it blows my mind. So kudos to you for
32:29 teaching a course on AI. Um, I can't
32:31 imagine. That must be an uphill battle.
32:33 And I bet you get an earful from
32:34 parents. And if there's anything I can
32:37 ever do to help, you know, uh, bring me
32:40 along. You want me to give the, uh, the
32:43 school administration an earful, I am
32:45 happy to do it.
32:50 Oh man, it is so silly. It's just
32:54 ridiculous. Um, okay. Let's go. Let's go
32:58 to midjourney.
33:00 I did some cool videos last night. I was
33:03 I was so exhausted last night. I don't
33:05 know why I was really tired last night
33:07 and so I just went to bed and I'm just
33:09 sort of making images on mid Journey. I
33:11 kept falling asleep and then I'd wake up
33:13 and I'd make some more images and then I
33:15 just animated a bunch of them before I
33:17 went to sleep. Um,
33:23 the parent of of three students would
33:26 love it.
33:29 That's awesome.
33:34 Perplexity reminds me of Nelly from
33:36 Little House on the Prairie. That's
33:38 really funny.
33:40 Oh, you know, it's funny, Silver Fox.
33:41 It's funny you say that. Um,
33:44 so if you're if you're new here and if
33:47 you're new to AI,
33:50 one of the one of the questions that
33:51 that may be burning in your brain is
33:53 which AI is best. And um, what I can
33:58 tell you at this point, we're we're kind
34:00 of we're we're coming on three years
34:03 into the generative AI era, right? This
34:06 was this this all started this channel
34:09 started and my interest in AI really got
34:12 lit on fire when Chat GPT launched,
34:14 right? So, November 30th, 2022. So,
34:16 we're coming up on the the three-year
34:18 anniversary of Chat GPT. At this point,
34:23 any AI tool that you use is probably way
34:28 more capable
34:30 than you have than you can imagine. So,
34:34 it literally doesn't matter which tool
34:36 you choose. If you want to do open-
34:38 source ones because you believe in that.
34:40 If you want to do
34:42 open AI because they're the first and
34:44 best. If you want to do Claude because
34:47 they're working on safety. If you want
34:48 to do perplexity because it's better at
34:50 at uh research, whatever it might be, it
34:53 really doesn't matter. What's starting
34:55 to happen is that
34:58 why you will choose
35:00 a model to start working with is
35:05 you'll like its personality.
35:08 As weird as that sounds, they've all got
35:11 personalities. And you know, Silver Fox
35:13 saying it reminds Perplexity reminds
35:15 reminds her of Nelly from from Little
35:18 House on the Prairie. Yeah, there's
35:21 Claude has a kind of warmth to it. chat
35:23 GPT is is a bit kind of smarmy and
35:28 know-it-all. Um, yeah, perplexity's got
35:31 this weird sort of formalness to it.
35:33 Gemini is totally schizophrenic.
35:35 Sometimes Gemini models are super cold
35:37 and analytical and other times they're
35:39 absolutely creative and amazing. And so
35:42 the only way to discover that is just to
35:45 play play play. And what'll happen is
35:50 a good exercise to do is go go set up
35:53 four or five tabs of different models
35:56 and just get free access any ones you
35:58 have free access to. Set up a bunch of
36:01 different tabs and then go to like chat
36:03 GPT and put one prompt in and choose a
36:07 bunch of different models in chat GPT.
36:09 Choose GPT5 fast thinking mini thinking
36:14 GPT40.
36:16 do like four same prompt four different
36:19 times in chat GBT. Then flip to
36:21 Perplexity and do it. Then flip to
36:22 Claude and do it. Then flip to Gemini
36:24 and do it. Then flip to Meta if you want
36:26 to do that or if you have access to
36:28 co-pilot with Microsoft and just go like
36:31 literally just go compare the outputs.
36:33 It'll blow you away because they just
36:35 they absolutely have personalities.
36:38 So
36:40 Oh wow. Um yeah, Brandon's kids are
36:42 still talking to Pi. So PI was one of
36:44 the first um voice you could talk back
36:47 and forth with it. Um and yeah, when you
36:50 imprint on some of these models, they
36:51 they they imprint kind of like
36:53 personalities do. So anyway, all right,
36:56 let me share my screen.
36:59 Tik Tok pin GPT just launched its
37:02 medical models. Really?
37:05 Wait, did they just launch that or is
37:07 that they they mentioned that
37:10 a like a week or so ago? Is that the
37:13 same thing?
37:17 [Music]
37:28 Um,
37:30 the medical stuff is is intense.
37:33 Um, it's going to be good.
37:37 We should play with that with the
37:38 medical model. Yeah, we could play with
37:39 that. Um, let me show you some of the
37:41 things I made in uh in MidJourney.
37:46 I think that one's just beautiful.
37:54 I mean, that cool little cool little
37:57 Jambi. Oops, I just launched Po the Po
38:00 app. Jesus, I haven't used that in
38:02 forever. Oh, it still works.
38:06 All right, there's that. So, there's
38:09 four of those.
38:12 These I didn't make into videos yet.
38:14 These are images,
38:16 but I'm just going to show you a bunch
38:17 of images here, and then I'm going to
38:19 show you how we got to all these. So, if
38:22 you don't know MidJourney,
38:24 um MidJourney is is kind of the the OG
38:29 image generation.
38:31 Um it started out as a Discord server
38:34 and then it became a website. and they
38:38 absolutely have the most artistic
38:40 outputs of any of the image models. Um,
38:43 they also just got their asses sued by I
38:46 think it's Warner Brothers for was it
38:48 Warner Brothers for Spider-Man and
38:50 something else. Um,
38:54 but it their their work is absolutely
38:57 beautiful
39:00 like what what you can get out of it. So
39:02 all of these everything that I'm showing
39:04 you here,
39:11 I want to show you how I how I generated
39:14 all these different looks and feels. All
39:16 these different This is all in the same
39:19 single word prompt, by the way.
39:22 Or it might have been a short little
39:24 phrase. Same prompt,
39:27 just using different styles.
39:31 Isn't this remarkable?
39:33 I love this one. I love there. For me,
39:35 there's something about models that
39:38 generate analog looking outputs
39:41 that just blows my mind because it kind
39:44 of flies in the face of, you know, when
39:46 you when you when you think about an AI
39:49 an AI image, you think like all that
39:52 purple and pink cyberpunk neon [ __ ]
39:56 And you see something like this and
39:58 you're like, wait a minute, that's not
40:00 AI. It is.
40:06 That's a gorgeous image.
40:11 All right, that I think was different.
40:13 Okay, so starting here, all these images
40:16 I just showed you, all the same prompt.
40:18 So, let me show you what we did here.
40:21 The prompt was letting things go. And
40:24 so, we'll do a different prompt tonight.
40:26 Who's Someone give me a prompt. Give me
40:28 some esoteric
40:30 esoteric some sort of prompt that might
40:32 be interesting. I I'll lean on Silver
40:34 Fox. If you're there, Silver Fox, give
40:35 me some sort of cool one one to three
40:38 word prompt
40:40 that's deep and esoteric.
40:49 Just keep swimming. All right, I'm going
40:51 with source camp. Source camp's in. Just
40:55 keep
40:58 swimming.
41:02 Uh, swimming.
41:04 Okay. So, that's going to be our prompt.
41:07 And actually, I'm going to do two
41:08 things. So, so we're going to go look at
41:10 our settings. Um, so we're going to do
41:14 16 by9 wide image. I've got my
41:17 stylization set at 150. I'm going to
41:19 leave that there. Weirdness at zero,
41:21 variety at zero. I've got it in draft
41:23 mode so these happen faster and we get
41:27 uh don't get use up as many credits.
41:31 Um just keep swimming. And then I've got
41:33 personalization turned off. So if you're
41:36 over here, you've got um your settings
41:39 are right there beside the submit
41:41 button. And you've got personalization
41:43 right here. Draft mode right here. All
41:46 right.
41:49 And so so I'm going to submit this. Just
41:52 keep swimming without personalization.
41:56 No stylesheet.
42:02 And then I'm going to turn on
42:03 personalization.
42:09 Same prompt. Just keep swimming.
42:16 So, we'll see what we get here.
42:20 These are kind of cool.
42:22 Nice.
42:25 Nice whale shark with two little
42:28 two little wafes at the bottom of the
42:30 pool. What app are you using?
42:33 Midjourney.
42:38 All right. So, that's that. Now, with
42:40 personalization on, here's
42:44 with personalization on.
42:47 Oh, that's a cool one.
42:49 Let's turn that one into a uh into a
42:52 video. Let me go back here for a second.
42:54 That one's really cool. I'm going to go
42:55 high motion auto.
42:58 Auto auto.
43:01 And then we got that one. And then we
43:03 got that one. So, just keep swimming.
43:04 That one's also cool. Let's we'll do
43:06 we'll do a high motion animation of that
43:08 one, too. Okay. So, if you're wondering
43:11 what is personalization, over here on
43:13 the lefth hand menu bar, you've got
43:16 personalization and mood boards. They're
43:18 kind of variations on a theme. But if
43:20 you go to personalize,
43:23 you can create um you can turn
43:26 personalization on and off here. You can
43:28 also do it in the upper right hand
43:30 corner. And then you can create global
43:33 profiles or you can create different
43:35 profiles if you want. But what happens
43:37 is if I click on this profile, what it's
43:40 going to do is it's going to pop up two
43:41 images. So the way personalization works
43:44 is you tell Midjourney what images you
43:47 like. I didn't create these images. It's
43:49 just feeding these to me. And so you can
43:51 do this on your numeric keypad. Um if
43:54 you hit the one, you're going to vote
43:56 for the image on the left. If you vote
43:58 for If you hit two, you're going to vote
44:01 for the image on the right. And if you
44:02 hit three, you're going to skip this
44:03 pair. So basically what we're doing is
44:06 we're telling the AI what we like. So
44:08 I'm going to go two, one,
44:12 two,
44:14 uh three. I'm not going to vote for
44:17 either of those. Three. Three.
44:20 Three. Three. I don't like any of those.
44:22 Two.
44:24 Um. Oh, that's interesting. I like both
44:26 of those. One.
44:28 Three. One. Two. Right. So, you just
44:33 vote. You just vote. And so, I don't
44:35 know. I've got 7 246 rankings in here.
44:40 And you can just keep ranking. And the
44:42 more you rank, the the more it'll learn
44:43 your style. And so you can just turn
44:45 that personalization on and off. So
44:46 that's what personalization is. Okay. So
44:49 back to the create tab. Are videos done
44:52 yet? They're close. They're not quite
44:54 done. Okay. So now we're going to do a
44:57 new thing. There's there's a new thing
44:58 in Midjourney that they just added
45:00 called um
45:04 called what's it called? Mood. Is it
45:06 styles? Yeah, styles. So if you go to
45:10 the explore tab, so normally when you're
45:13 on the explore tab, you land on a page
45:16 that's just got all these images on it
45:19 and that's these are images that other
45:21 people have made. So any one of these
45:22 images you see that you like, you can
45:24 click on it and you can see the prompt
45:26 that they used and you can reuse that.
45:28 And so it's it's all this sort of in
45:31 incestuous, you know, inspiration porn
45:36 where you just grab images that you like
45:39 and go make your own. And and now they
45:40 default this to the video tab because um
45:44 MidJourney can now do video.
45:47 But they've added this new thing called
45:50 styles. So, if you click styles,
45:53 there's over here in the top left, it it
45:56 defaults us to the top styles of the
45:58 day. You can also
46:02 click on the ones that you like. I guess
46:03 you can give thumbs up on ones that you
46:05 like. You can see which ones are the hot
46:08 ones, which are similar to the top ones
46:10 of the day. And then the button that I
46:12 like up here is random. So, just click
46:14 on random styles.
46:16 Okay. So
46:19 what's cool is so I can I can now scroll
46:21 through this list. These are all just
46:23 sref. If if you know know what an sref
46:25 is, it's a style reference. And so what
46:28 midjourney has done is they've basically
46:30 just created their own visual style
46:33 library. So here's a here's a Salvador
46:35 Dolly looking one. So I'm going to say
46:37 try style. Wait, submit current. Yeah.
46:39 So this is going to be just keep
46:41 swimming is going to be our Oh, wait.
46:44 I'm going to turn off personalization
46:46 because I just want it to be the styles
46:49 that are driving the image. So, this is
46:51 no personalization,
46:53 trying styles, and just keep swimming.
46:55 So, I'm going to do that Salvador Dolly
46:56 one. I'm going to do this dark black one
47:00 here at the top.
47:02 Um,
47:08 we like that light blue one. That'll be
47:10 good for just keep swimming.
47:18 Oh, this one's kind of fun. Try that
47:20 style. Try this style. So, every time
47:23 I'm clicking try this style, it's just
47:25 autoprompting
47:27 chatbt to build some [ __ ] for us.
47:34 And so the thing that I've been thinking
47:36 about but I haven't done but I thought
47:38 maybe we'll do it tonight since I got
47:40 inspired looking all all those old
47:42 videos is you can go through here and
47:44 just find stuff that tickles your fancy.
47:48 Take a single prompt.
47:51 I just said tickles your fancy, didn't
47:53 I?
47:54 [Laughter]
47:57 It's okay. You can all leave now. We we
48:01 don't need to do this anymore. I'm
48:02 starting to use phrases like tickles
48:04 your fancy.
48:11 I think we're done here. I think we've
48:13 learned everything we can learn.
48:16 Oh, there's a nice deep blue one.
48:19 Oh, good lord. Okay. All right. So, I've
48:23 done enough. How many I've done? 13
48:26 different sets of four. So again, if you
48:29 were wondering like
48:32 how do you get all that all those
48:34 interesting different things? Well, just
48:37 like we just did it. All right, so
48:39 here's the videos that we made before.
48:44 So first of all, how good is that?
48:48 Really good. Midjourney video is insane.
49:01 gorgeous.
49:05 All right. She's got weird arms, but
49:06 it's a weird lens, so you could maybe
49:09 maybe forgive that. That's a little more
49:11 normal.
49:13 Does she have a beard? I think she has a
49:16 beard,
49:17 [Laughter]
49:23 but that's pretty cool. Okay. But you're
49:26 already starting to see. So, so one way
49:29 you could do this is you could do a
49:31 bunch of
49:33 like kids swimming with goggles and fish
49:36 in a bunch of different styles. You can
49:38 do it all in the same style.
49:41 Um, we can also just start flipping
49:43 through here and seeing if we find a
49:45 style that we fall in love with
49:49 and then just start mucking with it.
49:50 This is the Salvador Dolly one.
50:00 I think that needs to be animated.
50:04 We'll do low motion on that one.
50:16 Just keep swimming.
50:20 Wow, look at that. That's gorgeous. Tik
50:23 Tok pin.
50:25 It's the grandpa learning laugh. Well,
50:27 shiver me timbers. That just tickles my
50:30 fancy. Bless your heart.
50:32 Yeah, I know. I know. It is kind of It
50:35 is kind of gramps. Gramps. Oh, good
50:39 lord.
50:41 Like these came out crappy. I don't like
50:43 them. That one's really nice, but these
50:45 are weird.
50:48 like the training data here must have
50:50 been on some
50:53 just incomplete
50:55 bad contrast something or other. Anyway,
50:58 that one's cool. Love this.
51:02 So, imagine like a whole video of
51:05 animated this.
51:10 There's something there. Get off my
51:12 generated lawn. Nirvana vibes.
51:16 Consider your fancy tickled.
51:20 Oh man, that one's kind of cool.
51:23 The corn the cornfish.
51:29 Let's animate that one. We'll do high
51:31 high motion.
51:39 Oh, I like this style a lot. This was um
51:44 this was like a Renaissance painting.
51:49 Wow.
51:51 Oh, wait.
51:56 Oh, my Tik Tok died.
51:59 Oh, now it's back. Tik Tok died for a
52:02 minute. Sorry about that.
52:04 These are the AI versions of ecards.
52:06 They're totally that.
52:12 I like that cornfish.
52:14 Love this style.
52:16 Wow. I I actually
52:19 I think I think I want to do
52:26 I think I want to do a video with all
52:28 these these Renaissance looking
52:30 paintings but with weird prompts.
52:34 Um okay. So So here's what we're going
52:36 to do. So here's what you can do now.
52:38 So, you've got
52:43 profile.
52:46 Wait, did that use my profile?
52:50 Why did it use personalization? I don't
52:52 get it. Oh, maybe it didn't. I don't
52:54 know. So, here's the sref. So, if you
52:57 click here's your little prompt. Just
52:59 keep swimming.
53:01 And then here's the sref. So, that's the
53:03 thing we pulled from the stylesheet.
53:07 So, what I'm going to do here is I'm
53:09 gonna I'm gonna
53:14 Okay, so we're going to do this. Let's
53:16 go back here.
53:18 We're going to go just keep swimming.
53:19 Sref that. Then I'm going to go dash
53:21 dash R. We haven't even looked at all
53:24 the other ones yet. R4. So, this is
53:26 going to give me four sets of four. This
53:28 is going to give me 16 images at 150
53:31 stylization.
53:33 And then I'm going to do just keep
53:34 swimming. same sref and I'm going to
53:37 move my stylization to 500
53:40 and then I'm going to go d-race
53:44 4 repeat four times. We'll make that I'm
53:48 going to do just keep swimming that same
53:50 sref stylization. We'll go eight. We'll
53:54 go 900
53:56 d-r
53:57 space 4. All right. So now my whole feed
54:02 like all 16 of these are going to be all
54:03 in that style. So, let's go look at some
54:06 of the other styles.
54:09 Um,
54:11 oh, there's that dude. That's kind of
54:12 cool. Oh, the Oh, some of these are
54:14 cool. Damn, man.
54:19 Yeah, this looks like the neurotic kid
54:21 that sat next to you in high school that
54:23 only drew with blue ballpoint pens.
54:27 This is the [ __ ] he drew.
54:30 He his His art's been scraped. He's
54:33 going to sue midjourney, too.
54:39 Oh, this is beautiful. Wow. You know, oh
54:41 god, these are going to be gorgeous.
54:43 Let's animate all all four of these.
54:47 These are going to be gorgeous. Okay, so
54:49 we're going to do we'll do high motion
54:50 for all of these. High motion. High
54:54 motion. High motion. Those are cool.
54:58 Okay. Nice.
55:03 That's a little too
55:06 uh what do you call it? Um
55:10 folk art for me. That's nice.
55:14 That's nice.
55:17 Like this.
55:24 All right. Here's the dude.
55:31 That's kind of cool.
55:34 That's super great. All right, here's
55:36 the cornfish. Oh, he got the bike
55:38 attached to him.
55:41 Oh, that's nice. Look at that.
56:04 Wow, look how gorgeous these are.
56:08 Holy [ __ ] Every one of these is
56:10 beautiful.
56:14 Every [ __ ] one of them. All from the
56:17 same prompt. Just keep swimming.
56:20 I think I like the low style the low
56:23 stylization ones better.
56:27 Except I don't know. Wait, how many?
56:31 These are the ones. So these are Okay,
56:33 let me let me go back.
56:38 Okay, so
56:40 these are all at 150 stylization.
56:56 The four of those are just gorgeous.
57:06 Riding the shark with the big ship in
57:08 the background. [ __ ] that's cool.
57:18 These are all 150.
57:27 Yeah, we're going to animate all of
57:28 these. I'm probably going to blow
57:30 through my credits. Okay, now that's
57:33 150. Here's Now we're at 500. So, the
57:36 next 16 are going to be at 500.
57:52 Cool little submarine.
58:07 Like I got I gotta tell you, I mean
58:11 so funny like when you hear people talk
58:14 about
58:16 AI and AI slop and and
58:20 you know it can never be creative
58:26 like
58:28 how do I put this
58:34 what I what I'm doing right now
58:38 is creatively
58:41 identical to when I'm walking around
58:43 outside with a camera.
58:47 So like when I'm walking around outside
58:49 with a camera, the only thing I do to
58:51 take a picture is push the button,
58:53 right?
58:56 Which is you could argue, well, there's
58:57 nothing creative about that. All you had
58:58 to do was push a button. But it's like
59:01 where I choose to walk, what I choose to
59:03 look at,
59:05 what of the stuff I choose to look at is
59:07 interesting enough to push the button.
59:10 What was so interesting that I took six
59:12 pictures of it instead of just one?
59:15 Why? Like what was it? So, it's a
59:18 similar thing here where I'm generating
59:19 a bunch of images just pushing the
59:21 button. And then there's something about
59:22 this aesthetic that made me stop and
59:26 made me create all these things. And now
59:29 it's almost like we've created a whole
59:30 new world.
59:36 Someone make incredible TV screen sh
59:38 savers. They would.
59:42 Yeah. AI can't be creative. Just burns
59:43 my biscuits. You know why it burns my
59:45 biscuit? source camp
59:48 is because
59:51 it it just shows a lack of understanding
59:54 of what of what people are actually
59:56 dealing with with AI.
59:59 Like what is creativity?
1:00:02 How are humans creative?
1:00:06 Well, they're born
1:00:09 and then they see [ __ ] or they
1:00:11 experience [ __ ] or they smell [ __ ] or
1:00:13 they hear [ __ ]
1:00:16 They make [ __ ]
1:00:19 and then at some point they get words
1:00:21 and language and they get told this is
1:00:23 good and this is bad. And at some point
1:00:25 they're told you're good or you're bad.
1:00:29 And it all goes into this large language
1:00:32 model in our head. And then at some
1:00:34 point they go to school and they make a
1:00:35 doodle and the teacher says, "Oh, you
1:00:38 make good doodles." And they're like, "I
1:00:39 like doodles. Doodling's good." And they
1:00:42 keep doodling. And then they go to high
1:00:43 school and they're still doodling and
1:00:45 the art teacher says, "You should go to
1:00:47 art school. I cuz I'm a doodler.
1:00:50 I'm going to become an artist cuz I
1:00:52 doodle."
1:00:53 Then they go to art school and they
1:00:55 learn about this and they that and they
1:00:57 just jamming [ __ ] in their head
1:01:01 and it's all being embedded
1:01:04 not in its original form in some sort of
1:01:07 weird matrix of electrical signals,
1:01:11 right?
1:01:12 And then at some point you're walking
1:01:15 down the street and you see a reflection
1:01:17 in a puddle and you look at it funny and
1:01:20 all of your little synapses go
1:01:23 and they connect a bunch of [ __ ] that
1:01:25 never otherwise wouldn't have been
1:01:27 connected and you're like I need to take
1:01:29 a picture of that and then I'm going to
1:01:30 put a rubber duck on it and a ocean
1:01:32 liner. I'm going to do that in
1:01:34 Photoshop. And like we have that idea
1:01:38 then we go back to Photoshop. We take
1:01:40 the picture. We go back to Photoshop. We
1:01:41 go find a clip art ocean liner. We put
1:01:44 it in there and now we have art
1:01:46 and we call that creative.
1:01:49 Well,
1:01:51 how's
1:01:56 the one?
1:01:59 That one.
1:02:01 Guys riding a shark with a giant boat in
1:02:04 the distance. How did that come
1:02:06 together? Well, a bunch of [ __ ] was put
1:02:09 into a large language model and Kelly
1:02:12 Camp came up with the prompt just keep
1:02:14 swimming
1:02:16 and someone took the training part of
1:02:18 the data that was from like Renaissance
1:02:20 paintings where they painted a bunch of
1:02:22 other [ __ ]
1:02:24 and they get smashed together into some
1:02:26 [ __ ] crazy straw of a brain and this
1:02:29 came out.
1:02:30 How's that different?
1:02:37 It's not different.
1:02:41 I think there's a guilt that people have
1:02:44 with AI art that it's like, well, I
1:02:46 didn't put in a lot of time, so
1:02:47 therefore it's not good. Photographers
1:02:49 don't have that guilt.
1:03:00 Uh,
1:03:02 next vision disagrees with me totally.
1:03:04 Why? For for what reason?
1:03:08 So, I I assume what you're saying is the
1:03:10 machine itself can't be creative.
1:03:14 Um,
1:03:16 but this is not the machine itself.
1:03:21 This is me as a producer
1:03:24 using these tools, tapping into this
1:03:27 model that
1:03:30 has learned as much as it can of
1:03:33 everything that's out there in the world
1:03:35 aesthetically and language- wise.
1:03:40 So, it's not just it's not just
1:03:44 the AI doing this like that. Like one of
1:03:47 the things that gets missed in every one
1:03:48 of these conversations
1:03:52 is the person that's in the driver's
1:03:54 seat.
1:03:56 The assumption the assumption of the
1:03:58 creative community right now is that if
1:04:00 you use AI, you're a talentless, lazy
1:04:04 hack. That all you're doing is pushing a
1:04:06 button.
1:04:10 And the people that I know that are
1:04:12 doing interesting work in AI, that's not
1:04:14 how they work.
1:04:16 It's not how they work at all. They're
1:04:18 sitting there kind of like Rick Rubin
1:04:20 with some idea of what he wants a song
1:04:23 to be or he'll listen to a song and he's
1:04:25 like, "Okay, I kind of have an idea for
1:04:27 how we could do this." And he says to
1:04:30 the engineer, "I want you to go do the
1:04:32 thing with the dials that makes it sound
1:04:33 like we're underwater." And then he says
1:04:36 to the bass player, "Can you make that
1:04:37 more thumpy?"
1:04:40 And then he says to the to the singer,
1:04:42 "You know what? Let's put a different
1:04:44 mic there. Don't we have one of those
1:04:46 mics that makes it sound a little
1:04:47 tinier?
1:04:50 You could argue that Rick Rubin's doing
1:04:52 nothing,
1:04:54 right? He's just prompting a room full
1:04:57 of people.
1:05:04 Oh, the troll left. Okay. I don't
1:05:06 listen, I don't mind trolls. I don't
1:05:07 mind people disagreeing with me, but
1:05:09 like I want to have a I I want to have a
1:05:11 a decent conversation about it because
1:05:16 if you're going to hate on AI, then then
1:05:20 like at least understand what you're
1:05:22 hating on,
1:05:24 right?
1:05:26 Anyway, that's neither here nor there.
1:05:32 I think you can absolutely be creative.
1:05:34 I we're going to make a video here of
1:05:37 all these [ __ ] insane surreal scenes.
1:05:40 Oh, we've got we got those videos, too.
1:05:42 Okay, so all of our all of our uh all of
1:05:45 those things are done. Maybe this is the
1:05:46 video.
1:05:49 [ __ ] that's cool.
1:05:52 Can't be creative.
1:05:56 The sorcerers apprentice. Yeah, exactly,
1:05:58 Rick.
1:06:00 It's like
1:06:03 I'm the holder. I'm the arbiter of taste
1:06:05 in this equation right now.
1:06:09 Right? This thing that I think is
1:06:11 beautiful, someone else probably goes,
1:06:13 "Oh, I hate that style of art." Okay?
1:06:17 Then you would make a different thing
1:06:18 than I make. Right? Just because I like
1:06:22 this doesn't mean it's right or wrong.
1:06:23 It means I like this. That's it. That's
1:06:27 all it means.
1:06:32 These are so cool.
1:06:50 Wow, that one's really good.
1:06:56 I don't know what I want to do. I've got
1:06:58 a dilemma here.
1:07:03 We could do little vignettes,
1:07:06 huh? All right. Well, whatever. Okay.
1:07:09 So, what we're going to do, we're going
1:07:10 to do, do I want low motion on these or
1:07:13 high motion? I want high motion. So, the
1:07:17 difference between low and high motion
1:07:18 is one moves more. That's it. You don't
1:07:22 you don't have a ton of creative control
1:07:23 with midjourney, but the models are so
1:07:25 good.
1:07:32 Okay. So, let's go. So, what I'm going
1:07:35 to do is I'm just going to go make a
1:07:36 [ __ ] ton of videos and then we're just
1:07:38 going to go download them.
1:07:42 I don't like that. I do like that. We'll
1:07:44 grab that one.
1:07:47 Grab that one. Definitely that one.
1:07:51 I don't like the fins on that fish,
1:07:55 but it's kind of cool. All right, we'll
1:07:56 do that.
1:07:58 Not that. Yes, that.
1:08:02 Yes, that.
1:08:05 Yes, that.
1:08:08 No, no, no, no. Yes. Some of these I
1:08:12 don't like.
1:08:14 That one's cool.
1:08:16 That's very cool.
1:08:19 That's very cool.
1:08:23 That's good.
1:08:26 I'm probably going to max out my cycles
1:08:29 here in a second.
1:08:34 That's cool.
1:08:44 Your job was not submitted. You have
1:08:46 reached the maximum number of things,
1:08:47 you selfish pig.
1:08:53 I'm I'm draining Hoover Dam. And what
1:08:56 what do we do? We're we're we're using
1:08:58 all the water. We're we're burning all
1:09:02 the oil
1:09:05 just so I can make a stupid [ __ ]
1:09:07 non-creative movie.
1:09:10 Too many cute jobs. I get it.
1:09:14 I'm a pig.
1:09:20 Uh
1:09:26 oh my god, these are so cool.
1:09:30 I I I got to go make some more of those.
1:09:35 We got to get that.
1:09:37 So those are the those are the videos.
1:09:40 So we got to go find the
1:09:45 uh uh
1:09:47 All right, here it is. So, here's the
1:09:49 style ref,
1:09:53 and it's just keep swimming. And we'll
1:09:54 move this back to 150 because that's
1:09:57 where we got all those at 150. And then
1:10:00 I'll just do dash dash dash r space
1:10:03 five.
1:10:05 So, we'll do 20 20 of those images.
1:10:09 And maybe I'll make that video instead.
1:10:15 Anybody have any questions?
1:10:18 Other than how can I be such a
1:10:21 non-creative oaf
1:10:23 [Laughter]
1:10:27 man on the ocean floor fish is my fave.
1:10:29 I know that one's really cool.
1:10:38 You mean you mean the this one Rick?
1:10:40 Hang on.
1:10:44 Which one was it? Oh, those Oh, those
1:10:46 are the new images.
1:10:47 Wait, where was it?
1:10:52 You mean this one? Right.
1:10:57 That one.
1:11:04 That one's pretty [ __ ] cool.
1:11:08 Yeah. Yeah, I know. That one's good. All
1:11:12 right.
1:11:13 Um, oh, here's here's our videos of this
1:11:16 this style.
1:11:20 Yeah, I thought maybe high motion was
1:11:22 too much. It's too much.
1:11:25 I bet it's too much for all of these.
1:11:29 Oh, that's cool.
1:11:41 Huh?
1:11:52 Awesome.
1:12:01 I could write a novel about that image
1:12:03 in motion. Well, it's funny. That's the
1:12:06 when I was thinking about the uh the
1:12:09 prompt walk today. Um the idea that I
1:12:14 had was so if you if you weren't here
1:12:16 last night, I came up with this idea
1:12:18 called the 303 prompt walk. So 303 is
1:12:21 the Denver area code, the 303 prompt
1:12:24 walk. And what it is, it's a combination
1:12:26 of a walking tour, a photographic
1:12:29 walking tour and prompting lessons. And
1:12:32 so the basic idea is you go to, you
1:12:34 know, cool locations that you can walk
1:12:37 in downtown Denver. You have people take
1:12:39 pictures and then you teach them to
1:12:41 prompt into AI and do something cool
1:12:43 with those images. And what I realized
1:12:46 is you could you could do it
1:12:47 multimodally where you start out with
1:12:50 them taking a picture and then you
1:12:51 output another picture but in a
1:12:53 different style. But then maybe the next
1:12:55 stop rather than outputting a picture
1:12:57 you output a poem or you output the
1:12:59 story of the picture that you just took
1:13:02 and then maybe that leads to other
1:13:04 things. So that's actually kind of a
1:13:07 cool idea.
1:13:09 I think I'll write a song too. Yeah,
1:13:10 that's very cool. Love it.
1:13:14 Timmy, get out of the ocean. It's dinner
1:13:15 time. That's good.
1:13:22 Wow.
1:13:28 I love the texture on the side of that
1:13:30 shark.
1:13:35 See, I think the high motion was bad on
1:13:38 all of these. This these should all be
1:13:39 low motion.
1:13:45 Synesthesia of thinking is what I
1:13:47 described.
1:13:49 Huh.
1:13:54 Yeah, it kind of is like that. I mean,
1:13:59 I've always been fascinated by
1:14:00 sinthesia, which is that if some people
1:14:03 hear music and they can see colors.
1:14:07 And
1:14:10 we now live in a world where
1:14:13 any input,
1:14:15 any input can lead to any output.
1:14:18 Right?
1:14:20 A poem can turn into a picture. A
1:14:23 picture can turn into a sculpture that
1:14:25 you 3D print.
1:14:28 A short story could turn into a software
1:14:30 application, a spreadsheet. Any input,
1:14:34 any output. And then it and then it
1:14:37 starts to be like who become the AI
1:14:39 artists? Like what do AI artists do? I
1:14:42 think AI artists get really nimble
1:14:47 with with their definition of outputs.
1:14:50 They they somehow retain a creative
1:14:52 vision
1:14:54 and allow their outputs to just [ __ ]
1:14:57 fan out.
1:14:59 I mean, I think that's a kind of artist.
1:15:01 I think you're going to have other kinds
1:15:02 of artists that are just really good at
1:15:04 making movies or really good at doing
1:15:06 certain things, but I think you're going
1:15:07 to have a new kind of artist that is
1:15:10 they can take any input and just imagine
1:15:12 it in ways no one else can even dream
1:15:15 of.
1:15:16 All right. I I'm not liking
1:15:20 I'm not liking the high motion on any of
1:15:23 on on the There's something about this
1:15:26 style
1:15:29 that that high motion is it's too much.
1:15:32 It needs to be more serene. It's like
1:15:34 see how see how fast he's wagging his
1:15:36 tail there. That should be a much slower
1:15:40 just like he's drifting.
1:15:42 All right. So, we're gonna I'm gonna
1:15:44 bail on that one for a second because I
1:15:46 want to I like this this other style a
1:15:49 lot.
1:15:56 I'm going to alternate with these
1:15:58 between low and high motion.
1:16:01 Oh my god, that's gorgeous.
1:16:06 Low,
1:16:08 high,
1:16:10 low, high,
1:16:12 low, high,
1:16:16 low, high,
1:16:19 low,
1:16:20 high, low, high, low, high,
1:16:27 low. Oh my god, that was gorgeous. Did
1:16:30 you see that image? All right, I ran out
1:16:32 of Look at that.
1:16:36 The scale. This is like a little tarpon
1:16:39 or like a big tarpon right on the bottom
1:16:42 of the ocean. And then this is just all
1:16:44 these other kinds of fish like all
1:16:46 pointing in at it.
1:16:54 Miss Birch, love this idea.
1:17:00 All right. So, now let's go back out and
1:17:03 look at what we've done. Too many cued
1:17:05 jobs because I'm a selfish pig.
1:17:12 I'm burning down the planet, but I'm
1:17:15 making pretty pictures.
1:17:17 [Laughter]
1:17:22 Oh my god. Oh my god. That one's
1:17:26 gorgeous, too. Let's do high motion on
1:17:28 that.
1:17:30 I think it let me.
1:17:36 [Music]
1:17:45 God damn, that's gorgeous. Look at that
1:17:47 one.
1:17:48 This dude standing. What's cool about
1:17:51 this is it's like you've got a dude with
1:17:55 his reflection on the beach. So, this is
1:17:57 sand, but then here's the fish swimming
1:18:01 like it's a new kind of environment.
1:18:05 Oh, love the 303 prompt idea. Yeah. So,
1:18:08 Miss Burch, what So, today when we did
1:18:12 the uh the AI salon mastermind
1:18:15 miniourse, we kicked off this four-week
1:18:17 sprint to build a miniourse. So, what
1:18:20 I'm going to build over the next four
1:18:21 weeks is I'm going to build the 303
1:18:25 prompt walk
1:18:27 guide and handouts and marketing
1:18:30 materials deck and then we're going to
1:18:32 publish that in the AI salon mastermind.
1:18:35 So, anyone that's part of the mastermind
1:18:37 will be able to get that for free. Um,
1:18:39 but part of what I have to do is I
1:18:41 actually have to go do one of these to
1:18:43 get my examples and figure out exactly
1:18:45 what I want to do on this prompt walk.
1:18:47 So, I'm pretty excited about it.
1:18:50 And I kind of hate it because like the
1:18:53 last thing I need in this world right
1:18:55 now is another [ __ ] project. But it's
1:18:58 it's one of the one of the challenges
1:19:00 with AI
1:19:02 is that if you if you play with it like
1:19:06 a practice like like the reason I do
1:19:09 these lives
1:19:11 as much as I love you all
1:19:14 the self-serving part of this is it
1:19:17 forces me to just play and explore and
1:19:21 play and explore. And one of the things
1:19:22 I hit on last night
1:19:25 was an idea for how to use chat GPT's
1:19:29 new branching feature
1:19:32 and and it's tied to like four other
1:19:34 ideas that I've had over the past two
1:19:36 weeks. And I was like, "Oh, I've got a
1:19:38 cool way to use that branching feature."
1:19:40 And then in using that branching
1:19:42 feature, it came up with that prompt
1:19:45 walk idea which then turned into this AI
1:19:47 prompt walk which then turned into this
1:19:50 could be an AI salon thing. And and it's
1:19:52 just like when you play with this stuff,
1:19:55 the risk of it is it's going to spin up
1:19:58 new ideas in you and get you really
1:20:00 excited about these cool ideas that you
1:20:02 have. Um, which is kind of the magic of
1:20:06 it, you know.
1:20:10 Um, okay.
1:20:17 Okay. So, we did that one and then let's
1:20:18 do this one. Okay. Okay. So,
1:20:23 here's our Oh, that's interesting.
1:20:26 Someone's swimming in it.
1:20:30 That's weird, though.
1:20:33 Oh,
1:20:36 that's trippy. Those are fish that turn
1:20:38 into people.
1:20:42 Every one of these.
1:20:49 I don't know which one's better. This
1:20:51 one's trippy.
1:20:54 Wait, a branching feature. Yeah. So,
1:20:56 side hustle mimi. Okay. So, here's
1:20:58 here's here's how I here's an idea that
1:21:00 I had for how to use it and it it worked
1:21:03 really well last night. So in chat GBT
1:21:06 here, I'll show you really quick. We'll
1:21:07 we'll come back to midjourney.
1:21:10 Is that chat GBT? It's not. That is.
1:21:13 Okay. So, we're going to do new prompt.
1:21:15 We're going to do new chat.
1:21:18 And I'm going to do um uh Oh, you know
1:21:22 what we're going to do? Watch this. If
1:21:23 you haven't seen this before, this is
1:21:26 going to be cool. Rick, I'll I'll do
1:21:27 your uh I'll do your idea.
1:21:34 This going to blow your mind if you
1:21:36 haven't seen this.
1:21:43 Where is it?
1:21:47 Is it this one? Yeah, it's this one.
1:21:50 Okay. Copy image. So, I'm going to go to
1:21:53 chat JPT. I'm going to paste that image
1:21:55 in. I'm going to go to chat GPT4 because
1:21:59 I I know how this behaves. I'm going to
1:22:02 say,
1:22:04 tell me the backstory here
1:22:07 in the form
1:22:10 of
1:22:12 a sophisticated
1:22:17 short story
1:22:21 that lives in the space
1:22:27 between
1:22:29 dream and reality.
1:22:31 You can also just say just tell me the
1:22:33 backstory of this of this image,
1:22:41 the still water exchange. He stopped
1:22:44 measuring time in hours or days.
1:22:46 Instead, Elias counted pauses, those
1:22:49 fragile moments when the world inhaled
1:22:51 and forgot to exhale. It was in one of
1:22:53 those pauses that he found himself
1:22:55 standing alone on an endless plane of
1:22:57 white, so silent it hummed. Before him,
1:23:00 a school of fish, not swimming,
1:23:03 suspended, not in water, not in air,
1:23:06 just there.
1:23:09 They formed a slow moving spiral in the
1:23:11 air like a murmur of thought suspended
1:23:13 mids sentence. That reminds me of you,
1:23:15 Silver Fox, the way you write. They
1:23:18 formed a slowmoving spiral in the air
1:23:21 like a murmur of thought suspended mids
1:23:23 sentence. That's beautiful. A hundred
1:23:26 silver minds. There you go. Hundred
1:23:28 silver minds turning as if whispering in
1:23:30 a language just beyond his hearing.
1:23:32 Their eyes tiny black pin pricks held no
1:23:35 malice, no fear, only quiet language.
1:23:38 Okay, so now here's where branching
1:23:40 comes in. So you've got this whole
1:23:41 thing. Cool. We've got a short story.
1:23:42 Love it.
1:23:45 The three dots here at the bottom. Oh
1:23:48 [ __ ] I'm not sharing. Hang on. So
1:23:51 anyway, so just to show you what I did,
1:23:53 I I uploaded that photo. I put tell me
1:23:56 the backstory and then I was I was
1:23:58 reading the story. So at the end of this
1:24:00 story you've got all these icons at the
1:24:02 b bottom of every prompt, right? Copy,
1:24:05 thumbs up, thumbs down, share, try
1:24:07 again. Um, and you now have this three
1:24:11 dots, more actions. And you can say
1:24:13 branch into a new chat. So what I could
1:24:16 do here is I could say, okay, I like
1:24:19 this short story as it was written, but
1:24:21 I want to branch this into a new chat.
1:24:22 And I'm going to say,
1:24:25 um, I think this would be better as a
1:24:30 song.
1:24:32 Um, who are three
1:24:38 artists
1:24:40 this reminds you of?
1:24:44 Let's see if it gets musicians right.
1:24:46 Aurora, the Norwegian singer's ethereal
1:24:49 style. Seigor Rose and Agnes Oel. All uh
1:24:55 Nordic people it sounds like. Okay, I'm
1:24:57 gonna say great. Um,
1:25:01 write me an epic
1:25:07 song
1:25:10 that combines
1:25:13 their styles.
1:25:16 and um
1:25:20 um pays homage to the image.
1:25:26 All right. So, that's off doing its
1:25:27 thing. So, if you come back over here to
1:25:29 your lefthand little column,
1:25:33 what's going on? Share this tab instead.
1:25:35 It's not sharing this tab. Oh, because I
1:25:37 went to a new tab. Okay. So, so there
1:25:39 it's making this this song. If I go back
1:25:43 to um
1:25:45 my chats here, turtle image automation
1:25:49 request. This was the original prompt.
1:25:50 So I can rename this and say um wait, is
1:25:54 this automation?
1:26:00 No, this was it.
1:26:04 So wait a minute.
1:26:15 Oh, did I lose it? I lost it. Anyway, I
1:26:19 lost it because I was [ __ ] around too
1:26:20 much. Anyway, you can branch it off and
1:26:22 you could you could do one branch that
1:26:25 turns this into a song, another branch
1:26:26 that turns this into a PowerPoint
1:26:28 presentation, another branch that turns
1:26:30 it into something else, but you still
1:26:32 have your main branch that you can go
1:26:34 back and and just do whatever you want
1:26:36 within there. So, that's that.
1:26:39 Okay.
1:26:41 Um,
1:26:49 all right. We're going to go pick some
1:26:51 images and go make a movie. We got to
1:26:54 make a song first, don't we?
1:26:58 All right. There's our stills.
1:27:01 All right. Here's our movies. All right.
1:27:03 So, we got this this swimming one.
1:27:06 I think this is the most compelling one.
1:27:08 It's like they're fish and then they're
1:27:10 people. Ah, damn it.
1:27:21 One of the bad interface elements about
1:27:22 Midjourney is
1:27:25 if you hit your trackpad, it it scrolls
1:27:28 you
1:27:29 way beyond where you were.
1:27:35 Okay. This one, right? Yeah. Okay.
1:27:39 Download.
1:27:41 All right. So, we're just going to keep
1:27:43 going.
1:27:45 Okay. Don't like that.
1:27:53 Kind of fascinating, isn't it?
1:27:57 No, that one's too weird.
1:28:06 It's a little surreal, but that's all
1:28:08 right. The whole thing's going to be
1:28:09 surreal.
1:28:24 That was kind of cool.
1:28:28 Oh, that one's like she's ice skating.
1:28:30 That one's really cool. Okay,
1:28:36 so we're going to download that.
1:28:52 Yeah, that one's cool.
1:28:54 Anyone
1:29:08 feeling not creative right now?
1:29:13 I'm feeling pretty [ __ ] inspired.
1:29:45 Yeah, that's the one.
1:29:48 All right.
1:29:50 God, that's gorgeous.
1:29:56 I think that might be the one. Oh, maybe
1:29:58 that I think this is the one.
1:30:04 No, not that one.
1:30:07 This is the one.
1:30:09 Yeah, that's the one. And like, how am I
1:30:12 choosing what I'm choosing? I don't
1:30:13 Okay, let me tell you a good story. Oh,
1:30:16 this is a really good story. Okay, this
1:30:18 is very relevant to all the [ __ ] we're
1:30:19 talking about here.
1:30:22 And if you're an irregular, you've
1:30:23 probably heard this before, but this
1:30:24 this was this was one of the more
1:30:26 impactful things in my life.
1:30:29 It's f It's funny like the little things
1:30:31 that happen that that stick in your
1:30:33 brain as significant because this is a
1:30:35 minor moment,
1:30:37 but I was I was taking guitar lessons
1:30:40 and I don't I've never really taken
1:30:42 guitar lessons. I mean, I only was
1:30:43 taking lessons with this guy for
1:30:45 probably a month or eight weeks or
1:30:47 whatever.
1:30:49 And we're playing songs and he's he's
1:30:52 teaching me chords or I think he might
1:30:54 have even been playing chords. and he
1:30:56 was talking about music theory and major
1:30:58 versus minor chords and he was playing
1:30:59 this and he was playing that and he was
1:31:01 just going through the chords
1:31:04 and as he was playing a sequence I said
1:31:06 wait a minute stop stop I said why does
1:31:08 that
1:31:11 what's with that chord
1:31:13 and he said
1:31:17 oh you can't see anything oh sorry I
1:31:20 need a shot collar sorry
1:31:23 [Laughter]
1:31:29 Sorry, Brandon.
1:31:35 Oh, I didn't realize I was on the wrong
1:31:38 tab. So, anyway, so I've I've been So,
1:31:41 what I was doing just now is there there
1:31:44 there are four versions of this.
1:31:47 There's this one. It's kind of cool.
1:31:49 There's this one. It's a little weird.
1:31:53 There's this one.
1:31:55 And they kind of separate nice and then
1:31:57 you get this pile of them. Like I That's
1:32:00 the one I selected. And then this one is
1:32:02 just not good. And so what I was saying
1:32:05 is why did I choose this one? Like what
1:32:07 is it about this one that made me choose
1:32:09 it? So So I'm taking lessons with this
1:32:11 guitar teacher and he's playing these
1:32:13 chords and I said, "Wait, wait, wait.
1:32:15 What's what's that one chord?" and he
1:32:16 played it and I said, "Why does that one
1:32:19 sound better than all the others?" And
1:32:21 his response was, he goes, "Oh, it
1:32:25 doesn't." He goes, "That's just your
1:32:27 musical taste."
1:32:30 And it was the first time I realized
1:32:34 that like I love minor chords. It's
1:32:36 funny. Champy sings at a minor.
1:32:40 Um,
1:32:42 [Music]
1:32:46 it's out of tune, but
1:32:50 there's C major, A minor, and it was it
1:32:53 was an A minor that he played. And I'm
1:32:55 like, why is that so much more
1:32:56 beautiful? And he just goes, that's your
1:32:57 musical taste. And I had never I had
1:33:01 never really considered
1:33:03 that I had a musical point of view.
1:33:07 like it felt it felt obvious to me that
1:33:11 that was the better chord
1:33:15 and like so the music I tend to like
1:33:18 tends to be depressing
1:33:20 singer so I like storytelling I like
1:33:22 minor chords I like clear voices I like
1:33:26 you know simple music
1:33:31 and to me it's inspiring and uplifting
1:33:33 and amazing and when I put on the music
1:33:36 I like with my co-founder of my
1:33:38 business. Like if we're in New York,
1:33:40 we're, you know, driving around to
1:33:41 clients and [ __ ] like that, I'll put on
1:33:43 my music. Within 30 seconds, her
1:33:46 response is, "This is kind of
1:33:48 depressing. Can you put on something
1:33:50 else?"
1:33:52 And it's just it's just
1:33:56 that's how we are. So whether you're
1:33:58 aware of it or not, you've got a
1:33:59 creative point of view. You have a point
1:34:01 of view. And so what we're doing here
1:34:04 when we're sort of navigating through
1:34:07 all these creative modes and midjourney
1:34:10 is we're just exercising our creative
1:34:13 point of view. And I think the art
1:34:15 moving forward is going to be to really
1:34:17 hone that really understand what you
1:34:19 like and what makes you happy and what
1:34:22 makes you sing because that's the work
1:34:24 that's going to stand out above the
1:34:26 rest.
1:34:27 All right, let's go get some more. God,
1:34:29 that's gorgeous.
1:34:32 That one's not as gorgeous. That one is.
1:34:39 Okay. So, three. That That one's the
1:34:40 best one so far. Then this one. No,
1:34:43 that's not good. Okay. So, it's three
1:34:44 again. Seems to be number three seems to
1:34:46 be the one. So, we're going to download
1:34:47 that.
1:34:49 Oh, this. Look at the the composition of
1:34:52 these is amazing.
1:34:57 Oh, look at that. That's so cool.
1:35:00 [Laughter]
1:35:06 I think that's the one again. The third
1:35:08 one. Well, this Wait, this one's looking
1:35:10 pretty good.
1:35:13 Oh, he didn't swim through it, though. I
1:35:15 think it's the third one.
1:35:18 He's trying to catch up. He goes back to
1:35:20 try to get through it. Yeah, that's the
1:35:21 one. All right.
1:35:25 Isn't this cool?
1:35:34 Oh, wait, wait, wait. Silverf Fox, I
1:35:37 just finished the story he wrote from
1:35:38 the screen that was up for so long. Oh,
1:35:41 that's hilarious.
1:35:44 Sad college girl music. Exactly. God, I
1:35:48 I Oh, I love Fiona Apple, Nico Casease,
1:35:52 um uh uh what's her name? Ani DeFranco,
1:35:57 like all of them. I love all of those
1:35:58 sad singer songwriters. Those are
1:36:00 totally my jam.
1:36:07 Okay, that's not good. This is maybe
1:36:10 good. Whoa, look at those spaceship
1:36:13 looking fish.
1:36:16 That's kind of cool. Not good. Not good.
1:36:18 Okay, so we'll do the spaceship fish
1:36:20 one. All right.
1:36:27 And I know it's getting late.
1:36:33 We might finish this tomorrow because I
1:36:35 think what we need to do I don't like
1:36:37 any of those. We're not going to use
1:36:38 those.
1:36:40 I wish it wouldn't put swim fins on the
1:36:42 people, but that one's better. They're
1:36:44 just sitting there. That's not good.
1:36:50 That one's pretty beautiful. All right,
1:36:53 we'll take that one.
1:37:00 No,
1:37:03 no,
1:37:07 no.
1:37:13 None of these are quite right.
1:37:28 No, none of those are right. All right,
1:37:31 next.
1:37:39 Gorgeous. H gorgeous.
1:37:46 I I I don't know if you knew this, but
1:37:49 artificial intelligence is just a
1:37:51 stochcastic puppet. It's just next token
1:37:53 prediction. It can never be creative.
1:37:56 Never. It can never ever be create.
1:37:58 Anyone anyone using artificial
1:38:00 intelligence as a creative tool is a
1:38:02 talentless hack that has no creativity
1:38:06 in their own bones and sad state of
1:38:09 affairs.
1:38:10 They just push a button and expect
1:38:12 everyone to love it.
1:38:19 These are all beautiful. Which one do we
1:38:20 use? Not that one.
1:38:23 This one's pretty cool.
1:38:25 Okay, that that.
1:38:30 No. Or the first one. This one. Oh,
1:38:34 yeah. I think it's that. Oh, god. Yes.
1:38:36 All right.
1:38:39 Damn. That's gorgeous. All right. That's
1:38:41 that
1:38:49 Tik Tok pin. I see no pin.
1:38:58 Side hustle mimi. So essentially Kyle
1:39:01 likes sad girl sad college girl music.
1:39:03 It's a whole genre. It is. It is. We
1:39:06 used to I used to joke about it with my
1:39:08 wife. It was It was like, how did I call
1:39:10 I called him? Whiny. Was it whiny?
1:39:14 No, depressing.
1:39:20 I forget what it was. But for me, it was
1:39:22 a term of endearment. But they they all
1:39:24 had like Atlantis Moriceet was the rock
1:39:26 version of it.
1:39:29 You had Jewel in there. She was doing
1:39:31 her thing.
1:39:38 Oh man,
1:39:43 [Laughter]
1:39:46 I believe you need to join the
1:39:48 mastermind to have access to the master
1:39:49 class. Yeah. So the the um the content
1:39:53 so the the um the prototyping sprint
1:39:57 that started today to have access to the
1:40:00 to the video from today and the
1:40:02 presentation from today and to have
1:40:04 access to the next three weeks you have
1:40:05 to join the mastermind. It's 20 bucks a
1:40:07 month. What's cool about the mastermind
1:40:10 is it's a group of people within the
1:40:12 salon that are kind of stepping up to
1:40:14 sort of take their craft to the next
1:40:16 level. Um, so we're getting a chance to
1:40:19 get to know each other in a different
1:40:21 way. It's I I'm I'm really digging the
1:40:23 mastermind. The whole idea was to have a
1:40:25 more focused, more committed place, and
1:40:27 that's that's what it is. So,
1:40:30 um,
1:40:32 okay. Is this a new
1:40:35 Yeah, this is Oh, you're right. This
1:40:37 this dude
1:40:42 No,
1:40:44 that one's kind of cool.
1:40:50 Yeah, that was kind of cool. All right,
1:40:51 we'll take that.
1:41:13 We said no to those.
1:41:19 Yeah.
1:41:21 Oh, okay. I was way down.
1:41:29 That's it. Okay. So,
1:41:32 so now
1:41:34 what we can go do
1:41:42 is I can just I can do a quick preview.
1:41:44 Let me stop sharing here.
1:41:55 Okay.
1:41:56 Um,
1:42:05 hang on a sec.
1:42:10 Okay, so now I'm just in Finder. So
1:42:12 these are all the things I just
1:42:13 downloaded. So I'm just going to do like
1:42:16 a quick little preview of what an edit
1:42:18 would look like putting all of our
1:42:20 selects together. So this is kind of
1:42:22 what Kelly Bosch does. Um, if if you
1:42:25 know Kelly Bosch's work, and I I don't
1:42:27 know if her her process may have changed
1:42:29 since I've last talked to her about
1:42:30 this, but what what she would do is she
1:42:32 would sit down at night when she was
1:42:36 like just watching TV or whatever and
1:42:39 would just be in midjourney or chat GPT
1:42:42 just popping in a prompt and generating
1:42:44 images. Generate, generate, generate,
1:42:46 generate, generate, generate, generate,
1:42:47 generate. And then what she would do is
1:42:50 go back through all of the videos that
1:42:51 she generated and pick the ones she
1:42:53 liked and and sort of drop them into a
1:42:56 folder and and then she would edit them
1:42:59 together and and either write music or
1:43:01 find music to put behind them. So that's
1:43:02 the same basic idea here. So if we click
1:43:06 on this, let me just go through these
1:43:09 quick and I'll just show you what an
1:43:10 edit might look like.
1:43:21 And like imagine these things cross
1:43:23 cross blending into one another slowly
1:43:30 where it's just like they just keep
1:43:31 morphing
1:43:32 one into the other.
1:43:35 And like when do you put the orange one
1:43:37 in? When do you put in the pop of color?
1:43:38 Is that at the end? Is that at the
1:43:40 beginning? Is it in the middle?
1:43:43 Do you put do you put all these things
1:43:45 that have spirals in them together? Do
1:43:47 you put the ones that have people in
1:43:48 them?
1:43:52 Are there ones that are more like dance
1:43:54 than more like swimming that you put
1:43:56 together?
1:43:58 Look at that one. [ __ ] gorgeous.
1:44:11 That's it. That's what we got. So,
1:44:15 we've probably got How long are these?
1:44:17 They're five seconds each. I think we
1:44:20 can go in and we can extend them,
1:44:23 but they're 5 seconds each. And so,
1:44:25 there's one, two, three, four, five,
1:44:27 six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11.
1:44:31 So, that's a minute. There there there's
1:44:33 a minute long video. So, maybe you go
1:44:35 generate
1:44:37 10 more. You do like a minute and a half
1:44:39 video. Tik Tok question. Could you
1:44:42 convert video into frames
1:44:45 to edit elements
1:44:49 like get rid of the fins?
1:44:52 Um, yeah, you can. It depends. It
1:44:55 depends how much control you want. But
1:44:57 you can take I mean here, let's try
1:45:00 something.
1:45:03 Let me go grab a still.
1:45:08 You said you wanted to get rid of fins.
1:45:09 So, let's go find.
1:45:14 All right, let's take this image.
1:45:18 Copy image.
1:45:20 Now, I'm going to go to
1:45:23 chat. We're going to we're going to play
1:45:25 nano banana.
1:45:27 So, I'm going to paste in that image.
1:45:30 I'm going to say um
1:45:33 remove the eyes
1:45:41 from the fish
1:45:45 and
1:45:53 make
1:45:55 their tails.
1:45:59 um
1:46:03 sharp like a sword.
1:46:08 And then I'm going to do
1:46:12 aspect
1:46:16 ratio equals
1:46:19 quotes 16 colon 9 quote
1:46:25 because with nano banana you can't just
1:46:27 tell it you want a 16x9 aspect ratio.
1:46:29 It'll ignore you. But if you put in that
1:46:32 little code apparently it works. I don't
1:46:33 know. All right let's see what this
1:46:35 does.
1:46:37 What just happened? Something went
1:46:39 wrong. All right, paste that image back
1:46:42 in. Try it again. Something went wrong.
1:46:44 I know it went wrong. So, wait. Let me
1:46:47 copy the prompt. Reload the page.
1:46:50 Got to sign in.
1:47:02 [Laughter]
1:47:04 source camp was telling me she she um
1:47:07 recognizes all my songs.
1:47:10 It's very sad. All right, we're going to
1:47:13 go there. We're go back here. We're
1:47:14 going to copy this image. We're going to
1:47:15 go back here. We're going to paste this
1:47:17 in. Now, we're going to try it again.
1:47:19 Boom. All right.
1:47:26 I love that one with the yellow face as
1:47:27 well. I know. Isn't that one beautiful?
1:47:29 Silver Fox. Beautiful.
1:47:38 That's what I like about making loads of
1:47:40 stuff in Sunno. I don't do anything but
1:47:42 make what I want to hear. Yeah. And then
1:47:45 I select a few of those generations to
1:47:47 share publicly. Yes. Sometimes someone
1:47:50 else likes them. Yes.
1:47:53 It's crazy.
1:47:56 All right, that did not do what we
1:47:57 wanted it to do, did it? Son of a [ __ ]
1:48:03 Although, what it did do was it made it
1:48:06 Okay, let's see. Um, let's see. Make the
1:48:10 eyes
1:48:13 of the fish
1:48:18 large and red.
1:48:30 Sometimes AI AI doesn't like the concept
1:48:32 of removing things. It's good at adding
1:48:36 things. It doesn't like the idea of
1:48:37 removing things.
1:48:41 Okay. Now, we'll say all let's see. All
1:48:45 of the fish
1:48:48 need red eyes.
1:48:56 [Music]
1:49:00 Oh, I meant get rid of the swimmer's
1:49:02 fins. Oh, yeah. Yes, you could do that.
1:49:06 Well, but you would have to do that for
1:49:08 each each image.
1:49:10 I would I what I would actually do in
1:49:12 that case is I would just I would just
1:49:13 do another animation in midjourney until
1:49:16 it didn't give the swimmers fins. You
1:49:19 can also prompt in midjourney what you
1:49:22 want the the uh things to do. So that's
1:49:25 not going to do the red eyes for
1:49:27 whatever reason. Um so
1:49:31 I can say
1:49:34 yeah. Um
1:49:39 I can now put in a prompt
1:49:42 and tell it what to do. So you could
1:49:43 actually prompt it to not have fins on
1:49:46 the on the people. swim pins on the
1:49:48 people. Um anyway, all right. So,
1:49:53 tomorrow what I think we'll do
1:49:57 if if something big doesn't drop and if
1:49:59 I don't have an add moment,
1:50:02 we'll take these images. We'll take a
1:50:04 couple of We'll make a couple of more. I
1:50:06 think I think we need a few more.
1:50:08 And we'll
1:50:11 here. Let me let me pop up the
1:50:16 the yellow ones
1:50:20 the third one, right?
1:50:24 Yeah.
1:50:27 That's so cool. All right, we'll leave
1:50:29 that there.
1:50:30 Okay. Um, so tomorrow what we'll do is
1:50:34 we'll we'll turn this into a music
1:50:36 video.
1:50:38 Uh, what time is the mastermind class?
1:50:39 The mastermind class is um Tuesdays,
1:50:44 the next three Tuesdays at 300 p.m.
1:50:48 Mountain time. So, whatever that is,
1:50:52 5:00 p.m. Eastern, 2:00 p.m. Pacific.
1:50:57 Um,
1:51:00 okay.
1:51:02 So, tomorrow what we'll do, we'll make
1:51:04 some more of these videos.
1:51:07 We'll go into a video editing software.
1:51:09 We'll go over to Sunno
1:51:12 and we'll write a song for this. And
1:51:14 then we'll make a new a new fish video.
1:51:17 Or not a new fish video. We'll make a
1:51:19 fish video.
1:51:22 And then that'll be the new video that
1:51:24 comes out of the AI learning lab. All
1:51:26 right.
1:51:28 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:51:31 Beautiful. Tomorrow, um, I've got the AI
1:51:34 readiness project podcast. That's myself
1:51:37 and Anne Murphy. That's at 3 PM. So, the
1:51:41 AI Mastermind is on Tuesdays at 3 PM
1:51:43 Mountain. The AI readiness project
1:51:46 podcast is airing live tomorrow at 3M
1:51:50 Mountain.
1:51:52 And uh yeah, you should watch it. You
1:51:54 can also if you go to Apple Music or
1:51:57 Spotify and you search for the AI
1:51:59 readiness podcast, we have now done I
1:52:02 think 27 podcasts, which blows my mind.
1:52:09 You put stuff in motion and before you
1:52:11 know it, [ __ ] happens. That kind of was
1:52:12 like that tonight. I was the the reason
1:52:14 I played all those videos at the
1:52:16 beginning of the show tonight was like I
1:52:18 just went to the AI Learning Lab channel
1:52:20 and I'm like, "Oh, yeah. I forgot about
1:52:22 that one. Oh, I forgot about that one. I
1:52:24 forgot about that one." And I thought,
1:52:26 "Maybe we just go play some videos.
1:52:27 That'd be kind of fun."
1:52:30 All right.
1:52:32 That school of fish would look beautiful
1:52:34 as a ball gown. Oh, it would. That's
1:52:36 Yeah, that'd be a gorgeous ball gun.
1:52:38 Very cool.
1:52:40 All right, everybody. Let me let me flip
1:52:44 this switch
1:52:47 and get the hell out of Dodge.
