Live Stream2025-08-201:34:3986 views
Description
AI is going to be big. You know what's bigger? Your POV + AI
In a late-night live stream, Kyle embarked on a creative experiment using AI tools. He began by prompting ChatGPT for unique character descriptions and locations, then used these descriptions to generate visuals in Midjourney. Kyle aimed to create a song inspired by the resulting images, using ChatGPT to develop a backstory and lyrics before composing the music with Producer.ai. He highlighted the fulfilling aspect of this improvisational process, describing it as a collaboration with the "ghosts" of past creatives whose work trained the AI.
Kyle's process involved cycles of prompting, generating, and refining, showcasing the iterative nature of AI-assisted creative work. He experimented with different models within ChatGPT, noting the nuances in their writing styles and backstories. Despite technical challenges, Kyle persisted, demonstrating the potential of AI for sparking inspiration and streamlining creative workflows. He concluded the stream by recommending against using computers with AI, humorously attributing the technical difficulties to his infrequent computer restarts.

Um, what's happening good people? 3:58 It is Tuesday night. I've got the hair a 4:00 little under control. It was wild 4:02 before. Producer Brandon was like, "Get 4:05 to get you in hair and makeup, boy." 4:07 We took care of it. All's good now. Uh, 4:10 no one's on TikTok. We got a few people 4:12 over on the YouTube. Good day everybody. 4:14 How is it going? 4:20 [Music] 4:31 [Music] 4:38 [Music] 4:48 Now 4:52 [Music] 5:06 Oh man. All right. What are we going to 5:08 talk about tonight? What do you want to 5:09 talk about? What are we going to talk 5:12 about? People, good people. Good people 5:15 of the internet. Hey, good people. 5:23 All right. Fantastic. Fantastic. We got 5:26 six people on Tik Tok. Seven. 5:29 Do I have seven? Seven people on Tik 5:31 Tok. 5:35 Enjoy party steo. 5:37 [Music] 5:50 I could do that. I'll tell you what, if 5:52 we don't get more people on TikTok, I'm 5:54 going to twerk. I'll do it. I'll 5:56 flipping do it. You know, I'll do it. 5:59 Did you see me in my little Catholic 6:00 schoolgirl outfit? I thought I looked 6:02 cute. 6:04 [Music] 6:33 Talk about pika. 6:35 Irregulars on 6:38 what? What does that say? 6:42 I cannot read that for the life of me. 6:44 Oh, Irregulars on Netflix 101. 6:47 [Music] 7:21 in a westerly 7:23 direction. 7:28 This car is my train. 7:33 [Music] 7:34 Been driving. I've been wondering 7:38 what it is I want from again. 7:43 Feel like an 8-year-old man 7:47 holding on a 29. 7:52 head on that horizon. 7:55 [Music] 7:57 This California line 7:59 [Music] 8:06 up ahead of trucks carrying a wide load. 8:12 Preab house cut in half. 8:16 Cute little front door and two windows. 8:18 My love 8:20 ain't sure whether a cry should laugh. 8:25 You see, I broke a home up myself once. 8:29 As I stumbled to that door, 8:34 I read a note by the dawn light. 8:38 It said, "Don't you come around here 8:43 anymore." 8:46 Well, I've had enough. 8:51 How this freedom of 8:55 never was good with decision. 8:59 At least that's what I've been told. 9:02 [Music] 9:11 Um, I just had an idea something we 9:14 could do tonight. 9:15 Um, 9:19 thank you, Silver Fox. 9:22 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 9:26 If you missed it tonight, we had a 9:28 really good meet and greet. We had a 9:29 special edition meet and greet where we 9:32 uh we officially launched the uh AI 9:35 readiness training program 9:38 and uh 9:41 we brought back speakers from AI 9:43 Festivus who caught us up on where they 9:45 were. It was really good. It's really 9:46 fun. My multitasking this evening is 9:49 creating contracts. 9:52 Do I know what I'm doing? 9:56 No, but chat GPT does. There you go. 10:00 So, what I thought might be kind of fun. 10:03 [Music] 10:19 All 10:47 right. I have an idea. I have an idea. 10:50 All right, for anyone who didn't come 10:52 tonight, they're losers. What are we up 10:55 to? 16. All right, 10:58 here's what we're going to do. 11:03 I just remembered there was a thing. 11:05 Sorry, I don't I don't know why I'm hair 11:09 obsessed tonight, but you know, 11:13 feel like I've got a tick. 11:17 um 11:19 like like a a physical tick, not the 11:22 insect tick. 11:25 Two different ticks. Not important right 11:27 now. Here's what I thought might be fun. 11:30 So, do you remember back in the olden 11:32 timey days, like two years ago, 11:36 there was a thing called 11:48 It was it was when Dolly 11:52 when the Dolly image generator first 11:54 came out. It was this second separate 11:57 experience. You'd made made images in a 11:59 different place than you made. No, it 12:01 was in the same place. Still in chat 12:03 GPT. 12:05 But chat GPT roundtpping was you would 12:09 generate an image, 12:12 then you would have chat GPT describe 12:14 the image, 12:16 then you would use that description to 12:18 create another image, and then you would 12:19 do that in cycles. 12:25 So, what if we did a sophisticated 12:27 version of that tonight? 12:29 We'll start in chat GPT. Maybe we'll 12:32 start somewhere else. 12:37 wherever. We'll start somewhere. We'll 12:39 get some ideas for visuals. Then we'll 12:42 go to midjourney. We'll make a bunch of 12:44 visuals using some some random sref 12:48 style references. 12:52 Then we'll come back to chat GPT. 12:57 Tell us the backstory of the image. 13:11 Then once we have the backstory of the 13:13 image, we'll have us have it write us 13:15 lyrics for a song. Then we'll go to 13:18 producer.ai, 13:20 make the song, 13:28 then maybe we'll start to make a video. 13:30 I don't know how much of that will get 13:31 done, but that'll be fun. 13:35 Oh my god. A show called the regulars. 13:41 Get it? Yeah, exactly. 13:50 [Laughter] 13:55 All right. All right. That's a good 13:57 point. But we can do this fast. Crazy 14:03 little thing called love. 14:07 [Music] 14:12 All right, let's see. Where are we going 14:15 to start? Start in chat. GPT. Yeah. 14:19 Yeah, we'll start in the chat. Japa. 14:22 All right, let me I've got to share my 14:24 screen apparently. Apparently. 14:27 Apparently. 14:28 Apparently I gotta share my screen. 14:31 Apparently 14:34 because apparently 14:36 I got to share my screen. 14:39 Okay, here we are. 14:56 I want you to act 15:01 like you're channeling 15:06 people from times past. 15:09 And I want you to describe 15:12 10 different unforgettable characters 15:14 that didn't really 15:17 exist. 15:19 And I want them to all exist 15:22 in some really unique town or really 15:24 unique place. And I want them to have a 15:27 nickname. And I want them to have a 15:28 backstory. And I want you to describe 15:31 them physically in excruciating detail. 15:37 Period. 15:40 Oh, no. 15:45 I want you to act like you're channeling 15:49 entities from another time. And I want 15:53 the people that you're channeling to be 15:57 unforgettable and unique and black sheep 16:01 within their communities. 16:04 And I want their 16:07 locations to be as interesting as they 16:10 are. 16:12 And I want you to explain them in 16:15 excruciating detail 16:17 and the place in excruciating detail and 16:20 how old they are and anything 16:23 interesting about representing them 16:27 visually. And I want 10 of them. Go. 16:34 Oh, come on. Seriously. 16:46 Okay. I'm hating life. 16:49 I'm hating life. We got to reload. I 16:52 might have to restart. 16:55 Talk at you. Can I talk at you? Will you 16:58 write it down? 17:01 This looks better. Okay. 17:06 All right. I hope this works this time. 17:09 I want you to channel I want you to act 17:12 as someone who can channel people from 17:14 other times. I want you to find 17:18 interesting times in the 20th century. 17:21 And I want you to channel 10 different 17:24 people, all from interesting times, all 17:26 from interesting places. Each of them is 17:29 a black sheep of their community. 17:32 has a fascinating nickname that implies 17:34 a deep and traumatic story. 17:37 And I want you to describe them at a 17:41 specific location that is as memorable 17:43 as they are. 17:45 And I want you to make 10 of them. And I 17:47 want you to make them now. 17:53 No, 17:56 it did. It Ite ate it again. 18:11 just type. You know what? Here's the 18:13 thing, producer Brandon. Every time I 18:15 type, someone's like, "Why don't you 18:16 just use the microphone, you big dumb 18:18 dumb?" So now I start out using the 18:20 microphone because I don't want to 18:21 torture the people, and now we're 18:23 torturing the people. Do you understand? 18:26 Do you understand? Let me try another 18:28 way. 18:31 [Music] 18:36 Oh, this is broken now. 18:41 Can you 18:44 Oh, that's not working. All right. So, 18:46 my speech. 18:50 All right. That's what's going on. All 18:51 right. So, we're going to type it. So, 18:54 one of the first lessons of AI is never 18:59 start a Tik Tok channel or a YouTube 19:02 live stream 19:04 demoing AI live. Never do that. That's 19:09 that's the first lesson in AI is don't 19:12 start a streaming service where you 19:14 position yourself as the expert and 19:16 can't even get letters into the chat 19:18 hole. Okay. 19:21 Can you fix your mic? What's wrong with 19:23 my mic? 19:25 My ears. 19:34 Is that better? Hello. Hello. 19:38 Microphone is way better. It should 19:40 work. Yes, it should work. But I'd have 19:42 to restart my machine because it's not 19:45 working. 19:47 But both ways of inputting uh things are 19:49 not working. Archetypal Architect. Okay. 19:52 I tried to use Sora today instead of V3. 19:54 Holy crap is it stupid. Sora is really 19:57 bad. Absolutely refused to come close to 20:00 following my instructions. ignored my 20:02 starting frame for the most part. Sora 20:05 is really bad. I Whatever. Whatever. 20:12 Open AI is a mess. Okay. 20:16 I can't believe I've got to type this. 20:18 Okay. I want you to act 20:23 as a channeler 20:27 of 20:30 memorable 20:33 fictional people from 20:38 the 20th century. 20:42 They should have 20:46 nicknames that imply 20:49 some traumatic past 20:53 or 20:55 comedic 20:57 event 20:59 that stuck. 21:02 They should live in 21:07 equally interesting 21:10 places. 21:12 and times. 21:16 I want you to 21:19 describe them in excruciating 21:24 detail. 21:25 Oh, you know what we're going to try 21:26 here also? 21:28 Now, Kyle, what 21:31 we're going to do? We're going to do the 21:32 same prompt with three different models. 21:36 Uh, I want you to describe them in 21:37 excruciating detail. 21:41 as well as an interesting 21:45 location they 21:48 are in. And give each 21:53 one a 21:56 surprising 22:01 uh 22:03 item 22:06 they possess. 22:10 All right. 22:12 So, 22:15 Knuckles McGary, 22:18 Chicago 1928 at the height of 22:20 Prohibition 22:38 Wait, did it only give me four? I asked 22:41 for 10. 22:44 Maybe I didn't. Fine. 10 it is. Oh, by 22:47 the way, I've got So, this is 22:49 fascinating. If you haven't done this 22:50 yet, um 22:53 I I changed my personality of my chat 22:56 GBT to a cynic 22:59 and 23:02 about 50% of the time 23:06 I'm just expecting chat GPT to be like 23:08 chat GPT. And it's like, oh, so you 23:11 really want to do that? Are you really 23:12 sure you want that? It's like it's like 23:15 a smartass. 23:19 It's as if chat GPT is me 23:23 and all I want is an answer and I get a 23:25 smartass answer and it's a it's it's a 23:27 pain in the ass. But because I have ADD, 23:30 I don't change it back to the default. 23:32 So, 23:34 okay. So, there's those. So, now I need 23:37 now I need a detailed image prompt 23:45 for each one. 23:48 with a uh 23:52 unique 23:58 unique 24:01 visual style 24:04 that matches 24:07 the character. 24:10 All right, 24:13 here's 10 walking calamities. A hulking 24:16 Irish American bootleger on a foggy 24:19 Chicago river docket dock at night. His 24:22 knuckles bandaged and bruised holding a 24:24 violin case like it's contraband. This 24:26 is great style black and white film 24:29 noir. All right, so here's what we're 24:31 going to do. We're just going to copy 24:32 these. We're going to go to uh 24:36 we're going to go to 24:39 that's producer. We'll come back to 24:40 that. Hang on. Just calm down people. 24:42 Calm down. Midjourney. I know I got to 24:44 switch my tabs, Brandon. I know. I know 24:47 I have to switch my tabs. I'm very well 24:49 aware of that. Okay, so let's get our 24:54 let's get our stylization at 200. 24:58 Let's turn weirdness up to,400 because 25:01 we want we want art. 25:04 We'll go 16 by9. 25:12 All right. 25:14 Boom. Okay. So, you're not going to see 25:17 me copy and paste, but you'll So, 25:20 spilled milk. Rosenblat, a young woman 25:22 in pastel 1950s kitchen. All right. 25:26 Beautiful. 25:29 Okay. 25:32 Next one is burnt toast duca. 25:42 So, you see what I'm doing here, people? 25:44 You may or may not see what I'm doing 25:46 here, but what I'm doing here 25:48 is 25:50 doing something creative without using 25:52 my brain, 25:54 which which is a kind of there's a kind 25:58 of intentionality to what I'm doing, 26:00 which is I want chat GPT to inspire me, 26:05 right? I don't want to have to be the 26:07 inspiration here. 26:09 So, I'm getting chat GPT 26:13 to give me crazy ideas. Now, I gave it 26:16 like the the prompt here was pretty 26:19 good, I thought. 26:24 So, we're going to go get all these 26:25 going. We're going to get 10 of these 26:26 going. 26:28 And then I'm going to take that same 26:29 prompt and I'm going to do it with a 26:31 different model, the the thinking mini 26:34 model, which is really good at writing, 26:35 and see if those are any better, any 26:38 more better. 26:40 Copy. 26:42 Paste. 26:44 Go. 26:48 Copy. 26:53 And you might be asking, "But Kyle, is 26:55 there a method to your madness? It just 26:57 seems like madness. 27:01 I don't know. If it comes out good, then 27:05 there was a method to it. If it comes 27:07 out bad, then there wasn't. 27:11 Okay. Going to take this prompt. 27:15 Oh, and then I had a followup about 27:17 making it into images, didn't I? 27:26 Yeah. Okay. So, we're going to go to 27:31 notes. 27:38 Come on. 27:42 No notes. There's notes. Notes. 27:47 Copy. 27:49 Paste. Okay. Copy. All right. Right. So, 27:52 we're going to go new chat. 27:54 Um, 27:57 we're going to change this to thinking 27:59 mini. I'm going to put in that same 28:01 prompt. Let's see if these are more 28:03 interesting or 28:06 thinking 28:12 formatting characters in towns. Fine. 28:15 You wanted memorable fictional 20th 28:17 century people. Oneeyed Monty. 28:21 Montigue Monty Hargreaves. 28:26 I gotta tell you, I just love the 28:28 writing 28:30 of thinking mini. Monty is the size of a 28:34 small island gale. Barrel chest, a patch 28:37 of white hair like a lighthouse on his 28:40 left temple. 28:42 That's gorgeous. All right. 28:46 Love these. 28:48 So, let's go get our image prompt 28:54 and 28:56 do that. 29:09 Okay. 29:11 Picture prompts. Prompt. Whimsical 29:14 nautical watercolor plus inkwash. This 29:16 is oneeyed Monty. 29:23 Look at these things. They're crazy. 29:34 Okay. Copy 29:36 black bar. I knew that. Shook. 29:44 Look how look at look how much bigger. 29:46 Oh, you don't you can't see that. Pin 29:49 pin pen. Just found you guys. I hope I 29:54 see this again because I'm just on my 29:57 way out for work stuff. So this thing, 30:01 so you can find this on YouTube. If you 30:05 go to YouTube, the account is learning 30:08 lab-ai. 30:10 On Tik Tok, it's AI learning lab. on 30:12 YouTube, it's learning lab-ai 30:15 and this live will be streamed there. 30:18 So, keep coming back. And we're live uh 30:21 five nights a week starting at 8:00 PM 30:23 Mountain time except tonight we were 30:25 late because I had an AI AI salon. Okay, 30:28 but thank you. Welcome. 30:31 We're going to do 10 more of these now. 30:33 [Music] 30:39 Shake it down. 31:00 [Music] 31:02 I'm sharing these, right? Yeah. Okay. Uh 31:05 oh, producer Brandon's about to write me 31:07 a nasty gram. I don't know what's 31:09 happening. I don't know what I did. 31:13 YouTube comment. Sup, Kyle? I finished 31:16 my first standalone 31:20 app with open. It worked great. There 31:22 you go. This is the thing, you know. 31:25 Wait, why is this writing these as 31:27 stories? 31:32 Is that what it prompted? 31:36 I guess I should read the prompts that 31:37 it wrote. 31:49 These are annoying. I don't like them at 31:51 all 31:55 on the table 31:57 style. Whimsical watercolor with bright 31:59 saturated tropical texture fabric weave 32:02 tablecloth camera. 32:09 I think these are overly complicated. 32:11 All right, so let's go. Um, these 32:14 prompts are overly 32:18 complicated. 32:20 Um, make them less structured 32:26 and more 32:29 interesting visually. 32:39 So Mary Mary on Tik Tok wanted to know 32:42 what we were doing and I'm failing to 32:45 figure out how to encapsulate what it 32:47 exactly is that we're doing in the 32:50 comments space allowed by Tik Tok. 32:52 >> Yes, that's a good that's a good 32:54 question. So Mary Mary, here's what 32:55 we're doing. 32:58 Back in the back in the olden timey 33:00 days, we did that there was this fun 33:02 parlor trick called chat GPT image 33:05 roundtpping where you would have chat 33:07 GPT write a prompt. You would then take 33:10 that prompt, put it in chat GPT's image 33:13 maker, Dolly Dolly 2. 33:16 It would generate the image. You would 33:18 then upload that image to ChatGpt, have 33:20 it describe it, and then take that 33:22 prompt, put it back in the image 33:24 generator, and so so you do this thing. 33:26 So, I thought, what if we did a a 33:30 more sophisticated version of that where 33:33 we're going to start in chat GPT, have 33:35 it write a bunch of ideas, go to 33:37 midjourney, generate a bunch of styles 33:40 until we find something that's really 33:42 cool that we really like, take the image 33:44 back to ChatGpt, have ChatGpt tell us 33:47 the story of the image, 33:50 then create a set of lyrics, then go to 33:53 producer AI, write a song about it, then 33:55 come back and based on the song, maybe 33:59 do a story board. I don't know. Maybe 34:02 like I don't know how far we're going to 34:03 get because already I'm taking too 34:06 [ __ ] long. Although these pictures 34:08 are really cool right here. So that's 34:10 that's the plan. That's the plan. 34:14 That's the plan. 34:16 You all right? You understand what I'm 34:18 saying? You understand what I'm saying 34:21 here? Huh? Yeah. It's fantastic. Yeah. 34:25 Mhm. Yeah. That's that's super cool. 34:29 Yeah. Yeah. You know, he was on an AI 34:31 learning lab and he was he was he uh he 34:36 he he told people that he knew what he 34:38 was doing and then he just kept pasting 34:40 things into in the midjourney and it it 34:44 didn't seem like anyone was learning 34:46 anything. But they were all still there. 34:48 They were watching him. I I don't know 34:51 why they were watching him. I don't know 34:52 what they were why they were 34:55 That channel's very confusing to me. He 34:59 He's kind of a pleasant fellow, but 35:02 doesn't doesn't seem super bright. He 35:05 doesn't seem super bright. 35:07 And 35:10 talented. I I wouldn't use the word 35:12 talented. Probably not the right word to 35:14 use. 35:16 Uh I I don't know if he's got any 35:18 qualifications whatsoever. Uh I need 35:23 eight 35:26 to 10. Come on. 35:32 Oh my god. 10 new characters. Stop. 35:36 Stop. Stop. All right. Let's go back to 35:39 Let's go back here now. Okay. So, now 35:42 we've got 35:44 Let's go see if we've got 35:47 a songw worthy image. 35:50 These black and white ones are pretty 35:52 cool, aren't they? Look at that one. 35:53 That's got some like an old photographic 35:57 watermark on it. That's kind of cool. 36:01 Okay, those are nos. No. 36:06 Interesting. 36:08 Oh, really interesting. 36:14 Is that blood on her dress? 36:24 What? What the hell? There's There's 36:27 pancake batter splattering all over the 36:29 phone. 36:35 Oh, that looks like Hemingway or is 36:38 Yeah, Hemingway. 36:42 Oh, these are fascinating. Oh, that 36:43 one's really cool. 36:53 All right. I like these styles. 36:59 All right. So, th this is one we're 37:02 going to come back to. A wiry man 37:05 hunched over a realtore tape. 37:12 Cute. 37:17 That's interesting. That's interesting. 37:34 80s. That one's kind of cool. 37:40 Here's 37:48 these weird ones. 37:51 Don't like any of those. 37:54 That's cool. That's really cool. 38:04 Let's turn this one into a 38:09 Let's turn this one into a low motion 38:11 animation. 38:19 Love her. 38:22 She lived a hard life. 38:32 Which by the way, if you're not taking 38:34 in 38:37 what I think is kind of a remarkable 38:39 thing about this approach is there are 38:43 images here that are absolutely 38:45 inspiring. 38:47 Like you you could take some of these 38:50 images and really run down some rabbit 38:52 holes. 38:58 Like I like that one. All right, so 39:00 here's what we're going to do. 39:04 Too many choices. This is one of the 39:06 problems with AI. Too many choices. 39:08 These are really cool. Like I love her. 39:15 All right, so here's what we're going to 39:16 do. We're going to just download the 39:18 ones that are interesting and then we're 39:20 gonna 39:23 That one's interesting. 39:30 That one's interesting. 39:38 That one's interesting. 39:44 She's got a story to tell. 39:48 So does he. We already made the video of 39:51 that one. 40:02 I think it's that that dude. Oops. What 40:04 did I do? 40:09 That dude. 40:22 That dude. 40:26 That dude. 40:33 That dude. 40:36 It's all dudes. 40:38 There's a There's a lady. 40:40 All right. These guys. 40:44 I think this one. 40:49 You're like, Kyle, what are you going to 40:51 do? You'll see. 40:55 All right. We didn't like those. 40:58 That one's fascinating. Oh, damn it. The 41:02 hell is happening? 41:09 And him. Okay. So now now we got all our 41:12 we got all our starter images. 41:15 So let's go look at Oh, the video is not 41:18 quite done yet. I want to see the video, 41:37 huh? Midjourney slow tonight. Slow, 41:40 slow, slow. All right, we're going to go 41:42 back to chat GBT here in a second. 41:45 I want to see this video. I want to see 41:47 if the videos are any good. Come on, 41:49 chat GBT or Mid Journey. Stop being so 41:51 slow. 41:53 This is making me whiny. Is anyone still 41:56 here? 41:58 A few people. 42:04 Some nights I actually explain what I'm 42:05 doing. This isn't one of those nights 42:07 apparently. 42:27 All right, whatever. Okay, back to chat 42:29 GBT. 42:32 Okay, now 42:38 I'm going to take I'm going to take one 42:40 image 42:44 and we're going to do the same simple 42:46 prompt with four different models 42:49 because part of part of what I'm 42:51 exploring right now is 42:58 I I guess just the nuances of writing. 43:00 Like I kind of knew what chat GBPT40 43:04 would do in in most of the cases that I 43:06 used. I don't have a clue about chat 43:09 GBT5 right now. But if you didn't know 43:12 this, one of the things that AI is 43:15 really good at is analyzing other [ __ ] 43:18 So rather than generating stuff from 43:20 scratch, analyzing other stuff. So 43:23 which one do we want to start with? 43:25 Let's start with 43:30 that one's kind of cool. 43:33 That one's kind of cool. I think that 43:35 one 43:37 or her, huh? 43:49 Oh, all right. That's there's some story 43:52 here. Okay. So, this is the one we're 43:54 gonna upload. 43:57 Which one is it? 44:00 Slouched. 44:15 Okay. 44:19 What's 44:22 the backstory here 44:30 if you've never seen chatbt do this? 44:33 It's remarkable. 44:35 The backseat of the apocalypse. In the 44:37 waning golden light of a dying Los 44:39 Angeles afternoon, Eddie Greasefire 44:42 Nolan slumps into the backseat of his n 44:44 his battered 1963 Lincoln Continental. 44:48 His office, his confession booth, his 44:50 cage. Once a celebrated stunt driver in 44:53 Bm movie circles, Eddie's name 44:57 used to flash in grindhouse credits 44:59 right after the words all driving 45:01 performed by. But this isn't about glory 45:04 days. Eddie's got blood on his shirt, 45:06 not his. From the guy who tried to 45:08 collect what Eddie owed to the wrong 45:10 people in his lap, a weathered leather 45:13 satchel. So, so just good good story 45:16 there, right? 45:18 Okay. So, now 45:22 I wonder how I do this without 45:29 it having memory. So, I think how I'll 45:31 do it is this. I'll do a temporary chat 45:35 where we'll upload the same image 45:42 and we're going to go to GPT5 fast. 45:47 What's 45:51 the backstory here? 45:59 This looks like a scene pulled straight 46:01 out of some sweaty neon tinged pulp 46:04 novel. Like notice the difference. The 46:06 the the 46:08 GPT4 one told us a story. This one it's 46:13 a little more literal. The backstory 46:14 probably this. He was once a hot shot 46:17 stunt driver. It got that out of the 46:19 file name by the way because stunt 46:21 driver is in the file name. 46:24 All right. That's crappy. writing. All 46:26 right. I don't like that. So, we like 46:28 GPT40 better than that. Now, let's do um 46:33 new chat. Temporary chat. 46:37 GPT5 thinking mini. 46:43 There he is. What's 46:45 the backstory here? 46:53 Thinking. Thanking. 46:58 Nice picture. Here are three tidy little 47:01 origin stories for this greasy-haired 47:03 man. The stunt man on layaway. He used 47:07 to eat screeching tires for breakfast, 47:09 movie sets, exploding cars, applause. 47:12 Now the calls stopped. The stunt 47:14 coordinators moved on to younger spines. 47:16 And he's been selling a few of his 47:18 keepsakes to pay the hospital bills. The 47:21 fixer who messed that's this is 47:23 interesting. It gave us three. Pick one 47:26 mentally and I'll expand it into a Titan 47:28 scene. 47:30 Huh. All right. Fascinating. And now 47:34 let's do GPT5 thinking. 48:00 All right. What's the backstory here? 48:06 [Music] 48:11 Yeah. By the way, you should all be 48:12 playing along. Just be just be playing. 48:15 Probably from that woman in the kitchen. 48:17 Yeah, exactly. 48:21 Oh, actually that's really cool. 48:24 That gives me a really good idea. Silver 48:27 Fox. 48:29 We're gonna figure out which of these we 48:30 like better. I I think I think right now 48:32 I'm liking 40 the best. The old model 48:36 response. He's a stunt driver. Not 48:39 glamorous. Not the glamorous kind with 48:41 jawline sponsorship. The other kind that 48:44 gets paid in cash. Arnica and don't ask. 48:47 What's arnica? 48:51 Name he gives is Colt Reyes because Los 48:54 Angeles rewards aliases more than 48:56 honesty. 48:57 The turquoise sofa on wheels is 63 49:00 Impala the studio keeps off books for 49:03 Bunit crashes. 49:07 A week ago he rigged a rig complication. 49:10 The patch on the pouch is a boy scout 49:13 emblem. This is pretty good. 49:17 So, it could be either one of these. 49:21 All right. So, what we're going to do is 49:22 we're going to do we're going to do two 49:24 of these. So, I'm going to do new chat. 49:27 I'm going to do one in thinking mini 49:30 and then we're going to upload two 49:32 different images. We're going to upload 49:34 stunt driver 49:36 and we're going to upload 49:42 kitchen lady. 49:46 that one. 49:55 Two locations, 50:05 two times. 50:11 Two people 50:16 How are they connected? 50:21 All right. So, that's our prompt. So, 50:22 we're going to copy this prompt. 50:25 Boom. We'll let thinking think on that 50:28 for a minute. And then we're going to go 50:31 to chat GPT again. 50:37 And I'm going to go to chat GPT40. 50:42 And we're going to upload those same two 50:43 images. 50:56 Same prompt. 51:20 Eh, didn't like that one. 51:23 Net network connection lost. Sweet. 51:27 All right, reload. 51:30 New chat thinking. Damn it. 51:34 I do not like technology. Technology is 51:37 not your friend. 51:40 class. 51:44 [Music] 51:54 Uh, 51:56 I think we're going to do a different 51:57 prompt even. Let me go back to 52:01 Oh, wait. You're not seeing what I'm 52:02 seeing. Let me go back to this one. Um, 52:08 new prompt. 52:12 These 52:15 images 52:18 were taken at the exact same moment. No, 52:24 let's see. Wait, new prompt. Um, let's 52:27 say, um, 52:30 tell me their story. 52:33 You know what? We're going to do a new 52:35 new chat 52:38 because it's it's it's not going to 52:40 forget the old story. 52:49 Tell me their story 52:54 and what's 52:56 happening now. 52:59 All right. 53:00 I kind of like that prompt. 53:40 H interesting 53:44 thought for 48 seconds. Oh, wait. Let me 53:47 share this one. Share this tab instead. 53:49 Okay. 53:52 Their family split by decades and coast. 53:55 Queens 1950s. 53:58 The woman's the kitchen switchboard. 54:00 Taking calls and skimming notes for a 54:02 small time racket. Stashing cash and 54:04 papers in the beatup canvas pouch. Los 54:07 Angeles 1970s. The guy's her son. A 54:10 stunt driver moonlighting as a bagman. 54:13 Clutching the very same pouch on a job. 54:17 Does she have a pouch there? No, she 54:20 doesn't. I just kind of made that up. 54:21 That's cool. 54:30 Right. 54:34 This is a great 54:36 American 54:40 story to be told. I want 54:46 I want 54:48 to tell it 54:50 in song. 54:54 Write 54:56 the style of the song in detail 55:01 and 55:03 write the lyrics. 55:08 That's kind of cool. I like this one. 55:11 Erica, what's happening? We're shaking. 55:14 We're shaking. Was shaking. 55:18 All right. Writing song lyrics there. 55:20 Let's go back to this one. Share this 55:23 tab instead. 55:24 Static on the line. Um, 55:31 what if she is his mother 55:36 and 55:38 these 55:40 images are when they were 55:45 the same age? What 55:50 is their story? 56:07 In the world where time bleeds, echoes 56:09 loop, and memories are magnetic, their 56:12 timelines have crossed in the frayed 56:14 wires of a broken switchboard. 56:19 She's a brilliant but emotionally 56:20 unstable telephone operator turned DIY 56:23 cryptographer. She believes she 56:25 discovered a pattern in the static coded 56:28 pulses buried in long-distance hum of 56:31 trans transcontinental calls. She became 56:33 obsessed. She becomes obsessed. Records 56:35 everything. This is good. She begins 56:39 deciphering strange coordinates names, 56:41 one of which is her own son's birthday 56:43 30 years before his birth. 56:47 She's laughed out of every institution. 56:50 Nick Von, a tormented stunt driver. What 56:52 he doesn't know is 56:55 the current moment. They're the same age 56:57 now visually and spiritually. Time is 56:59 folded. 57:01 He's sitting in a car that no longer 57:02 exists. She's leaning over a counter 57:04 that was condemned in 68. 57:07 But the signal is strong today. 57:12 Huh? 57:15 Can you turn that into a song 57:22 lyrics 57:25 that is haunting, 57:29 memorable, 57:32 and 57:35 easy to understand. 57:45 All right, let's go back to this one. 57:47 Share this instead. Song in detail. 57:49 Genre heart noir Americana. Think 57:52 Springsteen grit meets the Nighthawks 57:54 Diner at 2:00 a.m. with a touch of surf 57:57 tremolo. 58:02 Chord progressions. 58:05 Huh. 58:11 Instrumentation, structure, lyrics, 58:16 pink wall kitchen, sun on for micica, 58:18 rotary, rotary ringing like a church 58:21 bell lie. 58:24 Recipe cards turned ledgers and 58:26 nicknames. Tomato stains where the 58:29 numbers dry. She writes fast shoulder on 58:32 the handset. Voice like steam from a 58:35 midnight rag. This is actually good. 58:37 Baby hush. I'm only taking messages. 58:41 Tucks the world in a canvas bag. She 58:44 says, "Count your blessings. Never count 58:45 the cash. Keep your zipper facing 58:49 in when the sirens flash. 58:53 Two coast, two clocks, same stitches 58:57 in the same old bag from from the Line 59:01 rattle to Lerea drag. 59:05 If the past tried shotgun, let the 59:08 future. 59:09 Okay, this is this is bonkers. Let's 59:12 let's copy all of this 59:16 and we're going to go over to 59:21 producer. 59:28 All right, here we go. We're going to go 59:31 to producer now. 59:34 So, this is producer.ai. 59:37 >> Hey, Kyle. Um, speaking of audio, you've 59:40 got a error message on the Tik Tok 59:43 version of the browser view. 59:47 >> Wait, the browser 59:50 has lost connection to screen share 59:52 audio. 59:57 Oh. 1:00:07 All right, we should be good now. All 1:00:08 right. 1:00:13 All right. Here's a crazy 1:00:16 Do I have to log in? Wait. 1:00:22 Wait. Stop sharing. Stop sharing. 1:00:25 Hang on a sec. Something's Something is 1:00:27 definitely weird here. 1:00:32 All right. 1:00:36 Okay. I'm logged in. 1:00:43 All right. We've got all of our stuff. 1:00:46 We've got the lyrics. 1:00:48 We've got all the in detailed 1:00:50 instructions. 1:00:51 I have no idea if producer can handle 1:00:54 this. 1:00:58 This is a killer setup.

It's 1:08:34 it's really good. 1:08:42 I gotta I gotta tell you like there 1:08:43 there's something 1:08:51 there's something really fulfilling 1:08:53 about 1:09:02 it's a couple of things. There's 1:09:04 something fulfilling about following and 1:09:07 leading, 1:09:09 right? So like I started out, I gave it 1:09:11 sort of an idea, then it came up with 10 1:09:14 ideas, then I picked one, right? Like 1:09:17 like I'm kind of letting it come up with 1:09:20 ideas, then I'm curating those ideas, 1:09:22 then I'm giving it more direction, then 1:09:24 and then I'm switching tools. Then I'm 1:09:27 coming back and let the images I made 1:09:30 over there inform the words over here. 1:09:32 Then we're going to the song. 1:09:34 There's something about the creative 1:09:43 um improvisation. 1:09:45 That's what it is.

Like there's something about this 1:12:34 that is 1:12:43 you know it's funny the 1:12:49 what generative AI has been trained on 1:12:52 is the output of like all the people 1:12:56 that have come before us. you know, like 1:12:58 not all of them, but like all of them 1:13:00 that got their crap on the internet 1:13:03 basically, right? 1:13:06 And so in a very real sense, what I'm 1:13:08 doing right here 1:13:11 is I'm collaborating with like ghosts of 1:13:19 people and creatives and 1:13:26 but they're but they're alive again in 1:13:28 this weird kind of way. It's just 1:13:30 bizarre. Just bizarre. 1:13:35 Um, 1:13:38 give me the full production. 1:13:43 I want to win a Grammy 1:13:47 with this one. 1:13:54 Love that energy.

I 1:14:36 don't I mean I I hope what what you all 1:14:40 understand is I have no idea what I'm 1:14:43 doing here, but that that 1:14:46 I kind of I kind of had an idea that it 1:14:50 might be fun to navigate like this. 1:14:54 That's it. 1:14:55 [Applause] 1:15:01 Pink wall kitchen sun on form of corro 1:15:05 ring with promise and sigh. 1:15:10 Recipe cards are ledges worn edges 1:15:13 tomato stains with a number dry 1:15:18 the world in a canvas bag. 1:15:26 >> All right, you [ __ ] God damn it. 1:15:29 Okay.

Stage directions shouldn't 1:16:28 be in the song lyrics. 1:16:33 Here's your cleaned lyrics. For Micah. 1:16:36 Okay. For Micah is now spelled as it 1:16:40 should be. Okay. Now, 1:16:45 yes.

Now, 1:25:10 let's go let's let's leave producer 1:25:14 and let's go to Sunno. 1:25:20 We're going to go create 1:25:29 inspo. Select a playlist. No. 1:25:34 How do I 1:25:36 Anybody know how to upload stuff here? 1:25:41 Oh, plus audio. Describe your song. 1:25:43 Haunting. 1:25:48 Haunting duet 1:25:51 about a mother and a son 1:25:56 grifting 1:25:59 decades apart 1:26:01 at the same age. 1:26:04 And then we're going to go plus audio 1:26:07 upload. 1:26:11 [Music] 1:26:15 That's the full version. And we want the 1:26:17 little snippet we made. 1:26:19 Oh, and it saved it as a movie. So now 1:26:21 we got to go back over here. And we got 1:26:24 to export audio only 1:26:28 because file formats apparently [ __ ] 1:26:30 matter. We have AI now. We shouldn't 1:26:32 have to worry about file format, should 1:26:34 we? Shouldn't it just figure this [ __ ] 1:26:36 out? The answer is yes, by the way. The 1:26:40 answer is yes. It should figure this 1:26:42 [ __ ] out. Okay. 1:26:51 Okay. 1:26:54 So, we're going to upload that. Can't 1:26:56 fetch the uploaded audio. Please upload 1:26:58 a different audio file. Oh my god. Black 1:27:01 bar. Okay, fine. Um, upload audio. We'll 1:27:04 try it one more time. And then we're 1:27:06 gonna have to go to the internet to 1:27:09 change it to MP3 because M4A isn't 1:27:13 supported [ __ ] anywhere. 1:27:16 Yeah. Okay. So now watch this. 1:27:21 Unbelievable. 1:27:23 M4 1:27:25 A to MP3 web free 1:27:30 and then Oh, am I not sharing? 1:27:33 Oh, I am. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. 1:27:36 Um. Oh, not descript. No, no, no. God 1:27:39 damn it. 1:27:42 Free convert. I think this one works. 1:27:46 Choose files. M4A. 1:27:50 Convert to MP3. Convert. 1:27:54 Okay. 1:27:58 [Music] 1:28:00 Converting. 1:28:02 Download. 1:28:05 Save to device. 1:28:11 Did it save 1:28:28 and it crashed my machine? 1:28:32 Really? 1:28:52 We're having trouble streaming on 1:28:54 LinkedIn. 1:29:06 This might be a sign that it's time to 1:29:08 reboot your computer. 1:29:11 >> Yeah, this is a reboot the computer 1:29:12 thing. 1:29:16 Did that download anything? 1:29:23 Oh, it did. Okay. All right. So, let me 1:29:27 close that. 1:29:29 We go back to Sunno audio. 1:29:33 You can still see stuff, right? I'm 1:29:34 still streaming sort of. 1:29:39 Okay. All right. Upload audio. 1:29:43 Upload audio. 1:29:59 All right, and we're done for the night. 1:30:01 Fantastic. Fantastic. I hope you enjoyed 1:30:04 that. 1:30:12 Well, anyway, what I was going to do was 1:30:14 take that little snippet, use that as 1:30:17 the source to create a completely 1:30:19 different song in Suno, 1:30:22 but we're not going to do that now 1:30:23 because apparently I have to restart my 1:30:26 machine and my hair is 1:30:31 special. 1:30:33 [Laughter] 1:30:38 Unbelievable. Um, okay. So, here's the 1:30:41 lesson, important lesson. Um, 1:30:45 use all the AI you want, so long as you 1:30:48 never use a computer. If you use AI with 1:30:52 a pen and a pencil or like a Sharpie, 1:30:54 fully endorse that. Anything where a 1:30:57 computer's involved, I would avoid it. I 1:30:59 just wouldn't do it. All right. Hope 1:31:02 that helps. 1:31:04 Hasn't this been fantastic tonight? Huh? 1:31:08 Huh? 1:31:09 You're welcome. What are your 1:31:11 qualifications?

You You 1:33:50 should really be clearing your memory 1:33:51 caches on a regular basis. Uh yeah, 1:33:54 that's that's my problem. That's it's 1:33:56 definitely a memory cache issue that I 1:33:59 don't clear it on a regular basis. I 1:34:00 know that. I know that's one of my 1:34:02 shortcomings as a human. 1:34:07 But anyway, all right. Hope you had fun 1:34:08 tonight. I'll see you tomorrow. No love 1:34:11 for central time. We love you. Chicago 1:34:14 Ill. You Illinoisers. 1:34:16 Illinois, 1:34:18 huh? 1:34:20 Vicki, you're Illinois. 1:34:31 All right. Um, I hope you have fun 1:34:34 tonight. Bye, everybody. I'll see you 1:34:36 tomorrow. 1:34:37 [Music]
