Transcript

1. 0:00See, hey, Championy, what's up? What's happening? What's happening, Champion? What's going down? You want to sing Sing with the big dogs?
2. 0:15You want to sing with the big dog? [music] [music]
3. 0:30There's been something baby I've been trying to say for an age and it seems I don't know how [music] past and a future now surrounding me.
4. 0:50Surrender to whatever cheap there can be found. There's been [music and singing] a little trouble since you came to my rescue. [music]
5. 1:06And if you like all of the rest, I would have quit you [singing] long ago, but I couldn't do that. [music] Oh, tell [singing] me now. Women
6. 1:20and white never went to make a boy crazy and make him cold as hell. [music] I'm a woman that you wish me well.
7. 1:36But it's trying. [singing] Still going to have to find my way through. [music] >> [music]
8. 1:53[music] [singing] [music] >> Good evening everybody. Happy Friday night date night. That's Champ Shannon, lead vocals. [music]
9. 2:08I'll be singing back up for him all night. >> [music] >> Oh, good lordy. Good lordy. Good lordy.
10. 2:26[music] [music] What economy are you living in? What lane do you choose?
11. 2:41>> [music] >> Turn. [music]
12. 2:55[music] Woohoo.
13. 3:10>> [music] >> Freedom came up with that night just like a jet plane in and out of
14. 3:27sight. I [singing] was hauling ass at a million miles an hour while wondering how hard I did [music] when they [singing] came into the st.
15. 3:47They [singing] said I was bad beyond repair, but I got no qualms with my situation. [singing] >> [music] >> Say here I am.
16. 4:08So say Sheree Sheree Sheree [singing and music] won't you dare to say Sheree Sheree Sheree [singing] won't
17. 4:19you dare to say Sheree Sheree Sheree. Uh-huh. Yeah. [music] Leave a message and your [singing] number. Please
18. 4:37[singing and music] take a time to want to satisfy me. Take all these [singing] old fantasies. Send them care [music] of me.
19. 4:57>> [music] >> Hey, [music]
20. 5:12[music] [music] >> [music]
21. 5:29>> Standing by you, I feel the heat. Can you feel it, too? [music] Leaning in close. Smell of your perfume scares me most.
22. 5:48Your trouble [music] to me. Rich trouble can't you see leaning away
23. 6:04if his father [singing] every day standing by you. I feel [singing] the heat. [music] Can you feel it too?
24. 6:22You're trouble to me. [ __ ] champ. Real trouble. Can't you see? Can't you see? I'm trying to emote here. I'm
25. 6:32trying to emote. It's I'm trying to have emotion. And about the time I'm I'm leaning into it. >> I know. I know. I know.
26. 6:46[ __ ] dogs. They just don't understand. If only you had language. Right. [music] Right. Champy.
27. 7:01[music] Is [music] this place I can rest my forehead [music]
28. 7:17together? My thoughts in sweet silence is [singing] this place where the feelings [music] on dead
29. 7:31from an overexposure to violence. This is [music] place I can slowly face. The only one I truly [music] can't know.
30. 7:44These are tears from a long time ago. Got these tears from a long time ago. [music] I need to cry. [singing] 30
31. 7:54years old. So these are tears from a long time. [music]
32. 8:10>> [crying] >> Well, oh darling, oh darling, you say [music] unto me, where [music] have you been all my life?
33. 8:25[music] Where have women sad seas? More women have to cost me [singing] their lifelines. Well, I'd pull them into the waters.
34. 8:40[singing] I'd have won them, but [music] I didn't know. [singing] These are tears from a long [music] time ago.
35. 8:50Got these tears from a long time ago. I need to cry or tears from a long time. [singing] [music] Go.
36. 9:15[music] Oh yeah. So, what's happening? I think we're going to make some advertisements tonight. We're going to do some
37. 9:29advertising. [singing] Gonna make some social post [music] graphics if you know what I mean. [music] Yeah, it is Friday. Happy Friday night
38. 9:44date night. I've realized, you know, for for years now, I have declared that the official snack foods of Friday night
39. 9:54date night here at the AI Learning Lab are nachos and Hot Pockets. Of course, the hot pocket heated in a dirty
40. 10:01microwave you still have from college. Um, tonight what I had for dinner [sighs and gasps] was a Mrs. McCormick's
41. 10:14chicken pot pie. It was flipping delicious. Pretty sure it wasn't chicken, but damn, it was tasty, doughy, good.
42. 10:26So, I'm I'm expanding the menu. If if you have a if you have a uh a chicken pot pie in the freezer, and it's the
43. 10:35little one. It's not the big one. It's the little serving sized one. It's got like three pieces of chicken in it, 17
44. 10:41peas, and four pieces of carrots. And then the goo. The goo with the chewy dough. I mean, I think it's I I think it's what they call gourmet
45. 10:54cooking. Anyway, if you got one of those in the freezer, go set the oven to 400. Or is it 425? I don't know. Something.
46. 11:02It's a lot. It's hotter than the other [ __ ] I cooked. And it's going to take you 50 minutes. So, if you go put it in
47. 11:09now, the show will be starting about the time it's done. [laughter] You're welcome. >> [laughter]
48. 11:24>> Oh, good lord. Good lord. Good people. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. Good evening. All right. What? Oh, I know what I need
49. 11:39to do. Do that everything I can see. Champion knows [laughter] what people come here to see. I love those pot pies.
50. 11:52Somebody makes a vegetarian one that I love, too. I listen, if you're going to eat the vegetarian one, just listen. I
51. 11:59don't think you can come to the live anymore. No. No. If you're going to have a chicken pot pie, it's got to be chicken pot pie.
52. 12:06You know, toky pot pie just doesn't have the same ring to it. What did I miss? We've added a new uh menu item, Source
53. 12:14Camp. So, it's now nachos, hot pockets in a dirty microwave, or frozen chicken pot pies, single serving, cooked in the oven at 425°
54. 12:23for slightly less than the recommended time. So, the dough is not quite cooked. [laughter] At least that's how I did it tonight. [laughter]
55. 12:34I dang, I'm missing the chicken pot pie talk. You are. You are. You You were here for the let's change the world
56. 12:41talk. This is the let's change the pallet talk. [laughter] Marie calendars. Yes, that one. The one you get at Costco. You get like 17 of
57. 12:53them in a box for $12.99. That one. [laughter] Chef Kelly, did you help design the the special chicken flavoring in that
58. 13:03particular food item? Because it pretty much tastes like crack cocaine. Oh, I probably can't say that. He probably just got banned from Tik
59. 13:11Tok. He's talking about drugs. [laughter] Flavoring. It's chicken. It's chicken like flavoring. [laughter]
60. 13:27I literally just checked my freezer to see if I had one, and I do. Okay, source cam. So, here's what you missed. What I
61. 13:33said was if you do, go put your oven on 425. Slap that bad boy in there on a on a baking tray and in 50 minutes the show
62. 13:42will just be getting started and you can burn your tongue on the on the filling, [laughter] which I think is I think it's a new way
63. 13:50to [laughter] to experience the show. Oh god, that's hilarious. You've got one. [laughter] I'm [snorts and clears throat] going to be the
64. 14:02the sole destructor of everyone that watches this. Let's not forget Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, and hot applesauce. You know,
65. 14:12the the I as as you can imagine, I grew up on some solid white trash food and the frozen TV dinners, with the exception of the brownie,
66. 14:25which was tasty when it was hot, except the brownie always got a piece of corn in it, which you didn't discover until
67. 14:32mid brownie, right? So, the piece of corn in the brownie was bad, but but the warm brownie was tasty. But the warm
68. 14:38other desserts like the apple baked apple thing hot. No. No. You need a cool dessert. Like if only we knew Chef Kelly back
69. 14:53then, we could have said we could have been the angry Gen Xer in the corner. No, you don't want hot desserts. Figure this out.
70. 15:01Remember when McDonald I sound like [ __ ] Donald Trump. [laughter] Remember when McDonald's had the McDt?
71. 15:10Do you all remember that? It was a double white styrofoam box and there was the hot side and there was the cold side
72. 15:18and they took the sandwich top and they put it on the cold side and then and you had your hot burger and you put it on
73. 15:24the hot side and it actually separated the the heat. So, you had the cold and the hot and you got it home or you got
74. 15:31like 300 yards from the drive up window and you'd open that bad boy up and steam would come off the hot side and you take
75. 15:38that cool thing and put it right on there and take a bite. Oh, that was tasty. Astronaut ice cream. But the crust is
76. 15:47damn good. The crust is damn good. Um, but why were the apple pies the temperature of the surface of the sun?
77. 15:53This was also a reality of McDonald's. Even you know what's amazing about the apple pies and I say it in past tense
78. 16:00like I haven't had one in the past month. Um [laughter] the the uh the the thing about the apple pies. What was I going to say about the
79. 16:11apple pies? Uh I don't know. I don't remember. They were always Oh, they they they were they would scald your tongue. Like you would
80. 16:21eat all the other stuff. You'd eat the whole fries, the whole burger, half the Coke, and you're like, "Okay, now I'll
81. 16:28bite into my pie." And it would still burn your tongue. [laughter] What did they do to that thing? [laughter]
82. 16:42How are How are you learning AI? Um, I watch a there's a show I show I watch. So you you it's a good he's a good teacher. He teaches AI. Uh
83. 16:57no no last night he talked about fast food and well frozen food and then fast food. It's he was like Jim Gaffigan but not funny.
84. 17:13Yeah. I don't know what I'm doing with my life. >> [laughter] >> Steo, the apple pies here are like in a
85. 17:26wonton wrapper. Is it the same there? No, they changed the apple pies here, Steo. So, the apple pies used to have
86. 17:32like pie crust and now they've got some sort of styrofoam, brown sugar baked styrofoam lattice that was clearly engineered. Right. This
87. 17:45was I'm pretty sure that the McDonald's apple pies at this point are 3D printed [clears throat] because they don't taste
88. 17:52like you definitely ripped a dirty make oven from from Jim Gaffigan. I totally did. Yeah, I just took a little piece of
89. 18:00his Hot Pocket routine [laughter] and brought it and brought [snorts] it to the masses. Well, he brought it to
90. 18:06the masses because he has masses. I brought it to the micros. [laughter] Oh my god. Okay. Um, [music]
91. 18:23so, so one of the things we're going to do tonight, we we have Cindy [ __ ] who is a a loved member of the community. I
92. 18:30don't know if she's here tonight. Um, but she's got a a workshop coming up at the end of the month and we're going to
93. 18:37take a bunch of her raw materials and we're see if going to see if we can turn those into some advertisements,
94. 18:45some things that we can put out in the world to get people all excited about it. So, that we're going to work on
95. 18:51tonight. We're going to do that in Gen Spark. I think I think I have credits there to be able to do that. [music] Listen, [music]
96. 19:07Hot Pockets was clearly stolen from Jim Gaffigan, but I think the Maria Calendar's chicken pot pie, that whole
97. 19:13bit, I think that was all mine. I'm pretty sure pretty sure I just came up with that cuz that's what I had for dinner. [music]
98. 19:23I'm so excited. ads. [laughter] Chef Kelly bringing it coming in hot with the with the excitement about ads. Yeah, it's going to be big.
99. 19:35[music] And actually, I'm we're going to try two things tonight. We're going to try two things tonight.
100. 19:43We're going to do Gen Spark because Gen Spark's kind of magical. So, I think what I'm going to do is just upload a
101. 19:47bunch of [ __ ] to Gen Spark and say, "You go figure it out." And then I think we'll go to Gemini. I think
102. 20:00we're gonna do this in Gemini. Do I want to do it in Gemini or Chat GPT? Oh, we'll do it in chat GPT cuz chat GPT has
103. 20:06that new fancy 5.4 thing. Supposed to be super good. We'll we'll see about that. And then we'll just upload a bunch of
104. 20:16[ __ ] to chat GPT. Let it look at it cuz it can see. If you didn't know your large language models can see, they can.
105. 20:28And then we'll have Chat GPT write us a creative brief and then we'll have it make the ads. [music]
106. 20:45Heat me up that chicken pot pie at 425 degrees. [music] The crust is still doughy.
107. 21:01I just I'm not Harry Mac when it comes to styling styling the lyrics on the fly.
108. 21:18>> [music] [music] [music]
109. 21:37>> You want to see something fun I made today? It's got typos in it, but it's cool. Um, hey Source Camp, what did your what did
110. 21:46you [laughter] How was your watch party? Did they have fun today? It was It wasn't exactly a fun session at AI
111. 21:53office hours. AI salon office hours. [music] Did they have a good time? Burnt Edges with Dooughy Doy Frozen Center.
112. 21:59Exactly. Valerie knows the chicken pot pie delights. Anyone who can describe the nuances of a Marie Calendarer's chicken pot pie, they grew
113. 22:12up, right? It was so good. We spoke for an hour afterwards. Oh, after it was over. Oh, that's so cool. That's awesome. It was
114. 22:22so cool just seeing everyone sitting in their chairs. It was like you were sitting in the middle of of gymnasium. It was pretty good.
115. 22:29[music] Um here let me show you the the image that I made. I can see clearly now the rain is gone. I should learn the chords to that
116. 22:44because uh I sing it all the time but I don't know it. I can see all obstacles in my [singing] way.
117. 23:00>> [singing] >> It's going to be a bright bright bright sunshiny day. Okay. I thought that was weird. Oh. Oh. Streamyard.
118. 23:16Streamyard. The thing we use to broadcast on YouTube here is called Streamyard. And it's just its interface
119. 23:22is just like I don't know every week and a half or so they add some element to it that just moves [ __ ] on your screen. [laughter]
120. 23:31It's just like could you calm down with the dynamic resizing? Okay. So, this here image is I took the the article that I wrote about
121. 23:43the seven economies and I threw it into uh Notebook LM. And so, here's the seven economies. And there's there's some cool stuff going on
122. 23:54here. So, the the one thing that's cool is Notebook LM itself figured out that these four economies are kind of the
123. 24:01slow economy. Like these these are the slow AI adoption. and then these three economies are the AI first frontiers.
124. 24:09And it it kind of figured that out on its own and it like put these on a different angle. Like I I never would
125. 24:14have come up with that. It's it's like one of the things that the when you combine [clears throat] this this is a thing
126. 24:20I've said about Nano Banana for uh when it when it first came out that it's not so much a an image generation model as it is a thinking
127. 24:31reasoning model that can make images which is what it is. Um and so like it reasoned all this. It figured out you
128. 24:40know all the different colors. It figured out all the Lego characters. It built and designed little Lego businesses in all the different
129. 24:49categories. Um, and let let me zoom in and and then it it got it mostly right except here. Let me show you a fun typo. Let's see.
130. 25:02The analog economy, humanmade, authenticity, physical craft, local bamundry over digital speed. I don't know what bamundry is. [laughter]
131. 25:18And then let's see, here's the legacy economy. Yesterday's map, which I don't think is what it says. Traditional
132. 25:27organizations with an S. So now we've gone to England. Maintaining old war flows while the world accelerates around them.
133. 25:38But like look at the cute little like the cute little the in the in the analog economy. They've all got little fruit
134. 25:45stands, you know? They're at the farmers market, which there's the analog economy. They got their little shops.
135. 25:51They got their fruit stands. That's pretty good. the efficiency house faster horses using AI to increase productivity within asoling
136. 26:06or without changing the business model you know asing or so so there's just weird typos like on the second line of all of these uh all
137. 26:17of these things but it's still pretty it's still pretty rad like just if you know just getting a concept out quickly pretty slick.
138. 26:31And like all of the all of the AI ones are like slick cyber blue. The AI aggressor economy burn the org chart and
139. 26:38it's like ice ice skyscrapers. The AI native economy, it's all small little businesses kicking ass and taking names.
140. 26:47And then look at the the multi- the multi- agency operator community. It's one human with all of their agents
141. 26:54around them running their business. Just it's just good. It's just, you know, [gasps and snorts] so that's cool.
142. 27:13[clears throat] Those three have paths up. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, these three have paths up and out, right? And also
143. 27:26it actually adds a path because that was one of the thing I talked one of the things I talked about last night is I
144. 27:33think the right now there's seven economies. I think there's probably going to be an eighth one and then
145. 27:38probably a ninth one. There's just going to be these economies that keep going out on the AI side just getting more and
146. 27:46more and more intense. The other thing we talked about in office hours today is you've got if the if the basically if if
147. 27:54you weren't here last night, if you weren't paying attention, the seven economies, this is this is my theory.
148. 27:59This is based on three nights thinking in in answer to the question Kelly Camp asked me. Hey Kyle, you said things are
149. 28:07going to get weird. What's that look like? This this is my answer to that. So this is not super well thought out right
150. 28:12now, but the basic idea is this is sort of lowest AI adoption to highest AI adoption. And the and the economies are
151. 28:20just basically like no AI, just keep running businesses at we as we used to. Ignore AI. Here's a little bit of AI,
152. 28:28here's a little bit of more AI. But all of these are essentially still running businesses like they've always run them
153. 28:33with maybe a little bit of innovation in the green path. And then the AI first ones are, you know, I'm I've got an
154. 28:41existing company, but I'm willing to blow it up and just lean fully into AI. Then there's AI only companies. And then
155. 28:48there's these um autonomous bot companies like open clawbased companies where or or whatever the technology of
156. 28:57the day ends up being where you've got one person running 10 20 50 person 50 agent companies 24/7. Um,
157. 29:08yeah. And so that's that's and so what I think it starts to look like is we're just going to have a weird mix of
158. 29:16there's going to be people in the world like two years from now just running their businesses that are still like no
159. 29:21I don't really do AI. You're like really? Yeah. No, I'm just still doing this. Okay. And but they're going to be
160. 29:29fine except their businesses may die. They're not going to be stressed out about AI because they'll just ignore it.
161. 29:37[laughter] And then and then everyone in the blue, all of these blue people are going to be all stressed out, biting
162. 29:42their nails, you know, just manic like, "Got to get there. Got to get there." And then the people in the red are just going to be like,
163. 29:52"Hey Bob. Hey Bob. Yeah, it's Jim. Listen, could you bring over another quarter ton of manure?" Yeah. just just
164. 30:01they they the plants aren't looking happy. I just think they need a little love. We got to get some poop on them. [laughter]
165. 30:08You know, they're gonna be fine. But you know what's going to happen in the analog economy? You're going to have
166. 30:15some hippie vegan tofu eating, blueberry growing, you know, bearded man bunwearing guy. He's gonna sneak off at
167. 30:26night and he's going to be spinning up some some Clawbot thing. [laughter] The agents will call Bob.
168. 30:37Will we all go to vacation to the analog place? I think so. I think I think what happens what we talked about Oh, this is
169. 30:44what I was going to say. What we talked about on the call today is people are going to get fired from these six
170. 30:51economies, right? Well, they won't get fired from the these two, but they're going to get fired from in here, right?
171. 30:56And some of them are going to go try to find other jobs in in two, three, and four. And there's not going to be any
172. 31:02jobs there. So, they're just going to go, "Fuck it." They don't want to go to AI land, and they're just going, "Fuck
173. 31:07it." And they're going to just drop down to to the analog economy. And then, yeah, I think what's going to happen is
174. 31:14um the analog economy is going to get stronger and stronger and stronger. Like people are going to love living in the
175. 31:20analog economy. I don't want to deal with that [ __ ] I don't want to deal with your fancy ass whatever. Just you
176. 31:26go do that. I think there's going to be real excitement down there. And then yeah, I think as these guys all burn
177. 31:31out, they're they're going to go here. And then what's going to happen is the agentic um AI is just going to
178. 31:39increasingly start encroaching on these these other businesses and it's just going to eat them all. And so I think
179. 31:46what you ultimately end up with is you end up with highly agentic AI businesses and the analog economy. I think the
180. 31:54middle of this just goes away. They're going to dis rediscover newspapers. They will they will. I think no local newspapers come come back.
181. 32:04Local reporting, actual journalism comes back. But they're going to be reporting on things like, you know,
182. 32:12[laughter] the the the the the peach yield in June. [laughter] I love that. Will people go to the humanity of the analog economy? I think
183. 32:23they will. I think, man, I I honest to God, I think the analog economy is just going to get it's going to get like people are going
184. 32:32to love it. They're going to be like, "Oh my god, I got to I got to connect with people. I saw dirt. That might be going on now, but I just
185. 32:40this feels like it's going to get amplified as all as all this [ __ ] starts making noise and these things start
186. 32:46getting threatened and there's going it's going to be like a video game. Maybe at some point we'll we'll we'll
187. 32:54turn this into a video game and you can choose you can choose whatever path you want to be on and then you go [laughter]
188. 33:00you go do a platformer in each of each of the economies. Um anyway, okay. So, what do we need to do? We've got a bunch of stuff here. Can I
189. 33:14download a whole folder, future AI mindset, marketing materials, marketing blurb, one pager copy.
190. 33:29All right, let's just go download a bunch of [ __ ] Tab. Oh, did you actually want to see this? Fine. Can I download that folder? I can
191. 33:43[clears throat] curiosity field guide. Oh, this got all sorts of [ __ ] in it. Cool.
192. 33:58Tik Tok pin. Kodak and Blockbuster will come back. They might actually. This is okay. This is good. This is
193. 34:08great. So, I'm going to download this. That's the course that we don't need. Okay, we've got everything.
194. 34:22We're not going to put any pricing in the images. YouTube question on the seven economies. What's your time frame for this?
195. 34:37>> [laughter] >> Listen, Kyle. Puck on me all you like. Pick on me all you like, but I'm a profoundly bald no man bun. [laughter]
196. 34:48Um, my time frame on the seven economies. Um, it certainly
197. 35:04it certainly starts in 2026 and I don't think that um here I hang on. I'm going to go change I'm going to change how I'm sharing so I
198. 35:14don't have to worry about tabs. Um, but the seven economies. We're going to go to chat GPT. By the way, I don't have a chat GPT window open.
199. 35:29That's weird. [sighs] So, the thing that led me to make the the comment about things are going to
200. 35:44get weird that that Kelly said, "What's that look like?" was simply the fact that 2026 is already proving to be the year
201. 35:56where things are getting so good that it's freaking people out. like like I feel like 2023, four and five, it wasn't until the
202. 36:06end of 2025 that things were getting good enough that people outside of AI circles were getting freaked out. Like
203. 36:12we were all paying attention all along. So like when images got good enough that they people didn't have pretzel hands.
204. 36:21We were like, "Ooh, that's better." But to other people, it still looked like [ __ ] It still looked like damn
205. 36:25whatever. The end of 2025, things started to look better. video started to look better and the coding started to get really
206. 36:34good. Like December of 2025, the models got so good at coding that coders basically threw up the white flag and
207. 36:42said, "Okay, AI can just code. I'm just going to manage AI coding." Um, and a lot of coders didn't like
208. 36:51that. So, so I think December 2025 was the was the canary in the coal mine for coders, right? And they're going to see
209. 36:59it first because the frontier models are or the frontier companies are creating models to make code better so that their
210. 37:10models can get better so that they can win the race. Like they are they are internally incentivized to make sure
211. 37:17that they win the race. So, so all of their effort is going toward coding, not toward creative writing or any of the
212. 37:23other things. It's all about coding. So, they're going to see it first. That happened in December of 2025, right? So,
213. 37:29three months ago, four months ago, and it's just been getting better and better since. And then, like you had a month
214. 37:35ago, Seed Dance 2 dropped from China, that video model, and like all the people in Hollywood freaked out. And by
215. 37:41the way, I don't know if you saw it, but Netflix bought Ben Affleck Affleck company. that is a a company about using
216. 37:48AI in film production in a human- centric way, but Netflix just bought them, right? So, so AI is going to
217. 37:56absolutely transform that market. Like, it's just we knew it would anyway, but it's just that's accelerating as well.
218. 38:02So, I think I think what starts to happen is 2026 is the awareness year. It's the awareness that oh [ __ ] things are going to happen.
219. 38:13The idea right now behind the seven economies is if you can actually look at those seven economies and and say,
220. 38:21"Well, wait, where am I right now?" And then where do I want to play? You might want to play in the analog
221. 38:28economy. You might want to go work for a company that's ignoring AI, right? Reggie in here last night talked
222. 38:35about doing a job interview and they're like, "We want you to do what was it? Type form type form code or whatever.
223. 38:42and we we don't want you using AI. We want you to hand type it. And he said they were a major airline. [laughter]
224. 38:51Found that out today. Like whatever. So like even big companies are just going to stick with what they've always done. Um
225. 39:00so I think 2026 is the year that it becomes apparent that everything's going to change. So, probably toward the end
226. 39:06of this year, the beginning of next year, we'll start to see these sort of lanes emerge where there's just
227. 39:12companies that are we're just going to do what we're going to do or we're going to we're going to innovate or we're
228. 39:16going to completely innovate or I'm just [ __ ] it. We're going to start over. So, we'll see. Anyway, [clears throat]
229. 39:21all right. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful people. It's fantastic. Fantastic. All right.
230. 39:30So, what we're going to do is we're going to do some advertisements. >> [laughter] >> You can't even spell airline without AI.
231. 39:38That is very true. Okay, we're going to add photos and files. So, if we go to downloads, we've got her final manuscript of the field guide.
232. 39:56Oh, it zipped up our images. That's interesting. So, let me go unzip those.
233. 40:12I don't I think you can only upload 10 images to chat GPT, but we'll find out, won't we? Okay, there's the marketing blurb.
234. 40:22There's the one pager copy. There's the mindset. Oh, wait. Those are the images. There's the mindset. Okay. So, we're going to
235. 40:35open those up. What's going on? Why are you such a poop head?
236. 40:56[cough and clears throat] I don't have water. Jesus. [laughter] Hold. Please. Carry on. Entertain yourselves.
237. 42:18Okay. So, we are now with hydration. The mission, should we choose to accept it, is we're going to take the documents
238. 42:26from Cindy Coun's future AI mindset. We're going to have Chat GPT understand them and then we have some questions to
239. 42:42answer. So, why don't we do this? Why don't we go? [sighs] I'm going to I'm going to add some images in here. Hang on.
240. 42:59Logo. So, we'll add the cover art. We'll add the quick guide
241. 43:13and then we'll add some of these illustrations. Okay, so we're going to go front cover quick guide. One, two, three,
242. 43:31four, five. That's good. Did it add those? Yes. Okay. So, we've got
243. 43:48we've got raw materials. I think what I'm going to do, I'm I'm going to leave this here. We're going to come back to this
244. 44:02and then we're going to go to GenSpark. Genspark.ai. If you haven't played with Gen Spark,
245. 44:17it's good. Let me just make sure I have credits because if I don't credits zero. Oh, no. Credits 7045. Okay, I've got
246. 44:29credits. Okay, so we're going to go to AI designer. And then we're going to upload some [ __ ] Same [ __ ] we did before. So, we're
247. 44:41going to go front cover permissions. No. Uh, quick guide some of these images. Going to upload those. All right. And then we're going to
248. 44:57upload the manuscript, the one pager copy, and the marketing blurb. [snorts] >> [clears throat]
249. 45:12>> And then I'm going to say um here are some documents.
250. 45:30Images for style. style, a book cover, etc.
251. 45:45I want you to create graphics for a social campaign
252. 45:59based on this. But before you start working, ask me three clarifying questions
253. 46:17that will allow you to make sure that this campaign
254. 46:31is compelling, eye-catching, and effective. Let's see how it does. Please wait for
255. 46:47the files to be uploaded. Why are they taking so long to upload? Oh, I think I need to restart my router.
256. 46:55I'm starting to realize all these upload problems I've been having lately. I think it's I think it's my router.
257. 47:05What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? European or African? Uh [laughter] [laughter]
258. 47:21what other than witches float? Uh, very small rocks. [laughter] Or no, what? What other than ducks float? Very small rocks.
259. 47:37A witch. A witch. [laughter] [sighs and gasps] Okay. So, I don't think those things are going to upload.
260. 47:48So, that's bad. Uh, let me close those out. Let me see if I can upload one of those things. Browse local files. Let's choose one of
261. 47:58the small ones. We'll choose the marketing blurb. Is that uploading? That's not going to work. Okay, back to chat GPT.
262. 48:12He was sort of all over the place. Okay. Uh I want you We'll do it with voice to text so you don't have to suffer my typing.
263. 48:24I want you to read the documents here and look at the images for style because I'm going to have you create [clears throat]
264. 48:38because I'm going to have you create a series of graphics for a social marketing campaign where we're going to do posts that use
265. 48:51the images you create. period. I want you to ask me three to five clarifying questions after you look at all the materials
266. 49:04to help you put together a solid creative brief for the campaign.
267. 49:19Uh let's start there. Simple. Yeah. And Murphy in the house. Is that Murphy? And Murphy was shaking. Cory Sandler
268. 49:36Pottery in the house. Jason in the house. Got some she leads going. [clears throat] Time for a new router, Kyle. It really is. It really is.
269. 49:50All right. So, Ann Murphy, what we're doing is Cindy Coon's got a big workshop coming up at the end of March, and we
270. 49:58need to create uh marketing graphics for it. So, we're trying to do it in GenSpark, but my my my router is not letting me
271. 50:07upload files, but they uploaded here. So, so I think we're okay. So, we're gonna have Chat GPT do this. I
272. 50:15think we're also gonna have Gemini do it. We might as well might as well have try a bunch of different things. Um,
273. 50:28this is a drag. It's not letting me upload. We'll just ignore it and maybe we'll
274. 50:42come back to it and they'll be uploaded. Opening and inspecting the images with PIL. I don't know what PIL is. Oh,
275. 50:49Python. It's Python library. Cool. So, look at that. Chat GPT is just spinning up code. The campaign seems to
276. 50:59center on the future of AI mindset as human- centered thinking pra practice, not an AI tools class. Correct. The core
277. 51:06promise is helping people build agency foresight. Oh, by the way, what we're doing ads for. So, Cindy [ __ ] just launched this new book,
278. 51:15The AI Futures Mindset. So, go check it out. You can go buy it now. You should go buy it now. And at the end of this
279. 51:21month, she's doing a a workshop based on this. This is about shifting your mindset for for all the economies that are coming. [laughter]
280. 51:33So, if you're thinking about getting your [ __ ] together, this would be a good one. The core promise is helping people
281. 51:39build agency, foresight, and a more intentional relationship with AI through curiosity, scenario thinking,
282. 51:46experimentation, and long-term values. The workshop language reinforces that there's a live six-week journey with
283. 51:53concrete outcomes like a personal mindset statement, an AI futures, an applied futures map, a backcasting
284. 52:01pathway, a designed anchor, and a 90-day practice commitment. Cool. That sounds pretty bitching. I also picked up the
285. 52:08core conceptual structure. AI is a dynamic partner rather than a static tool grounded in eight elements. Collaborative, confident, positive,
286. 52:16prepared, balanced, specific, open-minded, and patient. This gives us a ready-made content architecture for a social series.
287. 52:25This is good. So far, chat GPT 5.4 thinking, I'm thinking, is pretty good. >> [laughter] >> I'm so clever. [sighs]
288. 52:41Visually, the style feels distinct, handdrawn, sketchbook driven, slightly whimsical, cerebral, quiet, and humane.
289. 52:48It has a notebook field guide sensibility, blah blah blah blah blah. Okay, great. Beautiful. To build the right creative brief, here are my
290. 52:55questions. One, what is the primary goal of the campaign? Um, sell the six week workshop, build awareness, grow Cindy's audience. Uh, sell
291. 53:08the six week workshop semicolon two. [laughter] Who exactly is the priority audience for these posts? Individual professionals,
292. 53:24enterprise leaders, educators, futurist, creatives, general, or some mix? Um, we're going to go definitely individual professionals.
293. 53:36If anyone, by the way, if anyone here that is knows this stuff, Brandon or Andy or anyone else or if Cindy Coon's
294. 53:42in here, if there's a specific answer to one of these questions you want me to include, I'm just I'm just going out of
295. 53:49my instinct right now. Um, let's see. individual professionals um AI curious for sure
296. 54:04uh let's say but also those fearful of job disruption
297. 54:18and then I'm going to put in parenthesis in In fact, the latter category
298. 54:34might include the first two. Okay. Semicolon. [sighs] What platforms are we designing for first? Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook. X. Let's go.
299. 54:49uh linked in Instagram X and then I'm going to go mix
300. 55:05of carousel and square posts semicolon Four,
301. 55:19do you want the campaign content organized around the eight elements around workshop benefits and outcomes,
302. 55:28memorable quotes, ideas from the book or a blend of those? Um, I think the message the message is
303. 55:49should make the benefits of attending clear. Let's see what it does with that. That that might be a tough that
304. 56:01it's hard to do things that are compelling that also give you the benefits of of being in the thing.
305. 56:08Like that's hard for creative directors. So, let's see how good this thing is. Five. How closely should the new graphics
306. 56:17stick to her style? Um, let's see.
307. 56:32Typography might stray, but illustration style should be all
308. 56:48Cindy. Um, the type might be more bold to be inst instant instantly
309. 57:02readable though I am open to your ideas. One of the things that you can do with large language models is tell it to tell it to
310. 57:19feed you, right? A lot of times we treat these things like vending machines. Like I'm going to give you the good input and
311. 57:26then you're just going to do what I say. You can also just say I don't know. Like you tell me. Once you answer those, I
312. 57:34can turn this into a tight creative brief. Okay. Boom. I answered those. I used to always speak directly to a few
313. 57:42generations, three or so in different ads. That's pretty groovy. Oh, speak directly to a two to a few generations. That's not a bad idea,
314. 57:57Silver Fox. Excellent. That gives me enough to frame the campaign. Working on a campaign goal, audience, core positioning.
315. 58:42Likely content pillars. Why this matters? Now AI is changing how we think, work, decide, and imagine. What people are feeling behind,
316. 58:51overwhelmed, uncertain, fascinated, threatened, curious. That's good. What this workshop actually gives them a
317. 58:58framework of practice, a map, a statement, a path, a commitment. What makes this different? It's not a tutorial. It's a human- centered
318. 59:05thinking practice. What kind of future stance it builds? More agency, foresight, adaptability, resilience, and
319. 59:12intentionality. Before I lock in on the brief, I have four final clarifying questions. All right. This is annoying, but let's
320. 59:20do it. This So, it's it's thinking. This is good. This is good. This is this making sense to everyone. Why? Like
321. 59:29if you've never done like like big advertising or marketing campaigns before, the actual execution where everyone
322. 59:37starts is what should it look like and what are the what should be some clever headlines. You have to do the work up front that
323. 59:44all those messages ladder back to like what are we trying to accomplish? Who are we talking to? Do you want the camppoint pain voice to
324. 59:52feel more reassuring and humane? More provocative and wakeup call. Blend of both. We'll go one. Blend of both. Blend of both. It
325. 1:00:03the the campaign should be smart enough to
326. 1:00:17strike that balance. Semicolon two is Cindy herself part of the cell. In other words, should some posts foreground her
327. 1:00:30credibility and methodology? Yes. Um can include her in some but not all.
328. 1:00:47Or we can include her in the post text, but the images.
329. 1:01:02No, I'm just going to I'm just going to say we can going to include her in some but not all. I'll let I'll let it be
330. 1:01:07more creative. It's probably going to think about this more creatively than I would. [clears throat and cough] Oh, damn you, Tik Tok.
331. 1:01:17>> [snorts] >> All right. Semicolon three. Do you already know the workshop start date? We do. Brandon, can you find that out for me?
332. 1:01:29The workshop start date. It's probably in my documents, but I'm too lazy to go look. 3:30 starts 3:3026
333. 1:01:44semicolon 4. Roughly how many posts do you want in the first wave? 6 9 12 or more? Um
334. 1:01:59um six and then I'm going to go I'm going to throw in silver fox's idea. Um,
335. 1:02:15what might be nice to layer on top is
336. 1:02:29creating three campaigns for the targets identified.
337. 1:02:44but in different generations. Z millennials and Gen X.
338. 1:03:02All right, let's go. Our work is done here. Is anyone watching Outlander tonight? [laughter] You know what I love about the AI
339. 1:03:17learning lab? When I'm off doing actual work, everyone's like, "Uh, hey, you want to talk about popcorn?
340. 1:03:25You guys watching anything good tonight? [laughter] Y'all are the best." You really are. [clears throat and cough]
341. 1:03:36Hey, Silver Fox. I know you'll be happy to hear this. Yes, that general generational layer is smart. [clears throat]
342. 1:03:45Chat GPT thinks you're smart, Silver Fox. [laughter] She is, but Chad GPT just confirmed it. Okay. It lets us keep one workshop, one
343. 1:03:58core promise, but tune the emotional entry point for each audience. Creative brief future mindset. Primary goal. All
344. 1:04:04right, let's read this. Let's let's take this in. Primary goal. Sell the six week workshop beginning 3:30. Making the workshop feel
345. 1:04:15like a practical answer to AI anxiety. Let's go back to GenSpark and see if those things uploaded. They did. Awesome. Okay.
346. 1:04:25So, chat GPT is good. Please wait for all files to be uploaded. Oh, one's still uploading. Good lord. Okay, so my my upload speeds
347. 1:04:36here. I I really do need a new router. I need to reset it. [clears throat] Sell a sixe course beginning making the
348. 1:04:44workshop feel like a practical answer to AI anxiety, disruption, and uncertainty, especially for professionals who are
349. 1:04:51curious about AI but don't want to be flattened by it. That's that's really good. Make the workshop feel like a practical
350. 1:05:00answer to AI anxiety, disruption, and uncertainty, especially for professionals who are curious about AI,
351. 1:05:07but don't want to be flattened by it. That's really good. The program promises concrete. By the end, participants can
352. 1:05:15leave with a future AI mindset statement, an applied futures map, a backcasting pathway. Don't know what that is, but doesn't matter. Sounds
353. 1:05:24important. um a designed anchor and a 90-day practice commitment. Audience, individual professionals, especially
354. 1:05:31people who are AI curious but not deeply technical. Worried about job disruption or irrelevance, overwhelmed by the speed
355. 1:05:37of change, looking for a more grounded, human- centered way to engage AI. This is perfect core positioning.
356. 1:05:45The strongest differentiator is this. The future AI mindset is a thinking practice, not an AI tools class. That's
357. 1:05:52really good. It frames AI as a dynamic partner rather than a static tool. Okay. What?
358. 1:06:07Where's my creative brief? Okay. Where is my creative brief? Um, this seems to describe
359. 1:06:25what you will make, but I see nothing. Um, put it
360. 1:06:40it in a canvas so I can edit it. You are a worldass
361. 1:06:54creative director. Don't [ __ ] it up. [laughter] Kyle, you'll end up a cyborg if you keep
362. 1:07:09[laughter] this up. Do you use Versel for apps websites? Uh, I don't. I don't. I'm just my my um I'm not doing a ton of development. The the
363. 1:07:21the most intense thing I'm doing right now is installing OpenClaw, which feels like I'm writing an assembly language
364. 1:07:29from the way my brain works. It's just a few command lines. It's relatively straightforward, Kyle. Anybody knows that. You just got to make
365. 1:07:39sure you've got your directory paths correctly specified. But that's pretty trivial, isn't it? >> [sighs]
366. 1:07:58>> Okay. Do we have a creative brief? We do. Good. All right. [clears throat] Nice. This is good. Okay. Let's go look at it.
367. 1:08:19>> [gasps] >> Oh, okay. Shy sell the six week future mindset workshop beginning March 30th, 2026 through social campaign question if you
368. 1:08:29have time. Unrelated. Oh, Stacy. You're not doing something unrelated. This I don't know if you know this about
369. 1:08:37the AI learning lab. We set an agenda every night and we follow it strictly. Ask producer Brendan. He knows how
370. 1:08:43tightly I follow agendas, but I'll go ahead and answer your question. All right. What is it? I'm getting ready to
371. 1:08:50hatch my new openclaw. Congrats. Do you recommend Telegram or Discord or an al alternative interface? What LLM do you
372. 1:08:58recommend to run locally? Okay. No comment from producer Brandon on on the on the agenda following prowess of your
373. 1:09:07host. Hi, I'm Kyle Shannon. [laughter] Um, okay.
374. 1:09:21So, I got I got some good advice from this from a very smart millennial person I know. Um, I started out having my my Adam Claudebot on
375. 1:09:36WhatsApp, but I also have a bunch of active conversations going on WhatsApp. And if Adam for some reason can get access to my other
376. 1:09:46conversations, like I don't want Adam jumping between all my conversations. So I I would I would think a thing would be
377. 1:09:52whatever platform you're comfortable communicating on that is decently segregated from a lot of your core
378. 1:09:59communications. Like if if you do a lot of communications in Discord, you might not want to use Discord. Like I chose I
379. 1:10:06ended up chosing choosing Telegram because I don't really use Telegram. Like I've got contacts in it, but I
380. 1:10:12don't I don't give a [ __ ] I don't have any active conversations going on there. That might be overly paranoid. I think
381. 1:10:18that the way I mean I know that the way that open claw is set up you have to explicitly give permission for it to
382. 1:10:26talk to other people but even still like I just chose to segregate it. So I would say a thing that is decently segregated
383. 1:10:32that you're comfortable using um for that and then the local large language model. This this hugely depends
384. 1:10:40on your computer but you you have a a Mac studio and I assume you got one with a decent amount of RAM. um install
385. 1:10:50you know whatever whatever sort of front end like like uh anything l anything LM or I think it's called is that what it's called or Lama
386. 1:11:02or there there's a couple of things that can run local models I would go look at the Quen 3.5 models from from Alibaba the it's QWEN3.5
387. 1:11:15and they just launched a pile of very small ones that can run well on a desktop, but depending on how
388. 1:11:21powerful the Mac Studio you got is, you might be able to go to like a 14 or even a a 30 um billion parameter model. So
389. 1:11:31basically I'd go to Quen 3.5 and then basically I'd just install probably starting at with a Max Studio you could
390. 1:11:40probably start at the 9 billion parameter model and then just work your way up until it gets slow and then back
391. 1:11:46it down one from that might be the way to do it. But you'll be able to run a decently powerful model. Those Quen
392. 1:11:54models are really good. Okay, let's go look. Let's go look at the vide tape. This is going to be long. I'm not
393. 1:12:02going to read through this whole thing because we're gonna have it go start making ads. Campaign purpose. Sell the
394. 1:12:08six week future AI minds. Okay, this is not a campaign about tools or hacks. The big idea, you do not need to become a
395. 1:12:15machine person. You need a better mindset in the age of AI or for the age of AI. That's good. The future AI
396. 1:12:21mindset is a way to meet disruption without panic. Engage possibility without naive. This is really good. Wakeup call. The future of work is
397. 1:12:28shifting fast. I thought it said the future of work is [ __ ] fast [laughter] and pretending otherwise is not a
398. 1:12:37strategy. Reassurance. People are not powerless. You can build a mindset and practice. This is really quite good. So
399. 1:12:45you know there's two ways to do advertising. You can do fear and you can do aspirational. And this is basically
400. 1:12:50it looks like it's doing both, right? It's saying, "Hey, you're screwed. This shit's coming and you got to deal with it." And
401. 1:12:58you can, if you take this course, you can build a mindset that's going to prepare you for what comes next. That's really quite good.
402. 1:13:05Primary audience, individual professionals who are AI curious, feeling pressure, aware their work may change, even if they're not sure how.
403. 1:13:13None of us know how it's going to change. We just know it is. I know it is. Um, looking for a more grounded,
404. 1:13:19human- centered way to engage with AI. open to reflection, imagination, practical future building, audience
405. 1:13:25tension. The campaign should assume the audience is living in some combination of these feelings. Fascinated by AI, behind on AI,
406. 1:13:35suspicious of the hype, worried about job disruption, tired of shallow think pieces and tool tutorials, hungry for a
407. 1:13:42calmer, smarter way to engage the moment. This sounds like the AI salon, which by the way, Brandon, if you want
408. 1:13:50to go ahead and pop up the banner for the AI salon. If you're not a part of the AI salon, get thee to a nunnery. Get thee to a nuty stat.
409. 1:14:07Okay. Um, what we're really selling, we're not selling six sessions. We're selling a way to feel less behind. Okay, so it
410. 1:14:15addresses all those things. The core promise. Okay, key outcomes to communicate a stronger sense of agency. Okay, so
411. 1:14:23here's what we're going to do. [clears throat] One, we're going to download this. Download the PDF document. And then what we're going to do
412. 1:14:38because I am a professional and not an amateur, I am going to upload that document
413. 1:14:53to the Google Drive. Future AI mindset campaign creative brief. So, if anyone in the AI salon that's doing the
414. 1:15:08marketing stuff here doesn't like what we create tonight, they've got the core creative brief there. They can do other stuff with it.
415. 1:15:15Okay, let's go back to here. That thing's still uploading. That is buming me out. Let's try to upload the creative brief instead.
416. 1:15:33Oh, it did it. It's done. Cool. Okay. Here's some documents image style. Um, I've included a creative brief creative
417. 1:15:47brief for you to follow. Please execute.
418. 1:16:08Please execute. Um using uploaded images for inspiration.
419. 1:16:27Um create campaigns for the three for the three groups.
420. 1:16:50I'm gonna say if possible write copy that would be in an organic
421. 1:17:05social post that goes with each image or carousel you create. I don't know if this can do like blocks
422. 1:17:19of copy next to the images, but let's see. Now, it's probably going to come back and ask me questions.
423. 1:17:27But what's cool about GenSpark, so I'm in Gen Spark Designer right now. If if you came in since I've been
424. 1:17:36mumble talking into the microphone, hey, can we talk about something? If there's if there's something good that's going to come out of
425. 1:17:51AI taking over Hollywood, can can we like write a a a group letter to Hollywood and tell them to turn up the [ __ ]
426. 1:18:00microphones when they record the actors or tell the actors to say words out loud? Cuz you know what I can't [ __ ] take anymore is
427. 1:18:20Just [ __ ] talk. We're supposed to hear you. I have to turn on [ __ ] subtitles cuz I can't understand what they're saying. They're
428. 1:18:27whisper acting. It's got to stop. It's got to stop. Say your words. Say your words. >> [sighs] >> I understood it all, Kyle. Maybe just a
429. 1:18:42suggestion, maybe a hearing check. Okay, that's an a that's called agism. And we don't age shame in this channel. We fat
430. 1:18:50shame. We'll definitely fat shame a dog. We just don't talk about how how old the host is. [laughter] One of my favorite trolls, one of my
431. 1:19:01favorite trolls came in just it was just a quick It was like a low pass. little little buzz buzz in the uh the barntorm
432. 1:19:09barntorm in the uh the farm. Uh he just came in and he was like, "You ever trim your nose hairs?" [laughter] and then
433. 1:19:16left. That one hurt for months. I got the bif focals. Yeah, I do too. The progressives. All right, let's see.
434. 1:19:26Uh okay, once you answer these strategic positioning, I want to emphasize the human AI partnership most heavily. The book's core
435. 1:19:35What are the questions? I've thoroughly reviewed your materials, the creative brief, blah blah blah. Before I begin
436. 1:19:49creating the six post campaign across the three generational lenses, here are three clarifying questions. Book cover
437. 1:19:55integration prominent feature or background element. Um, one, let's make the book a background element,
438. 1:20:11but prominently featured on one ad per um group of six. That's pretty good.
439. 1:20:26Two, scroll stopping color strategy. How much can we push? The brief calls for muted, mostly neutral pallets consistent with
440. 1:20:36Cindy's sketch. However, social feeds are noisy. Do you want me to stay strictly introduce one strategic accent
441. 1:20:41color? Um, I'm just going to say be creative. Um, we want people to pay attention yet still have the materials
442. 1:21:00feel familiar when they learn more. Okay. Three.
443. 1:21:14Workshop logistics in the creative. How explicit? The brief mentions March 30th 3.95 for 6 weeks. Just the date, the date and price.
444. 1:21:29Is there a specific URL or call to action? The specific URL should be actually Brandon, can you get that for me?
445. 1:21:40I don't know if Andyy's still here. What's What's the URL? But I think the URL could also live in the copy. Um,
446. 1:21:48let's go with date only in in the graphics. Put those other details
447. 1:22:02in Put those other details in the body copy of the post. And then if I [clears throat] can get a URL
448. 1:22:17for now, we can just put um we just put community.thesalon.ai. AI.
449. 1:22:37Wait, I see looking. All right, producer Brandon's looking. Jason's out of here. Good night, Jason.
450. 1:22:55I'm just going to put community at the salon.ai for now. All right. So, that's going to do its thing. Let's go back to chat GPT now.
451. 1:23:06Wait, let me just make sure this gets off to a good start. thinking, what's the best thing you've ever mar
452. 1:23:22made? Um, [clears throat] best is best is a really interesting term
453. 1:23:37because I think best is not something that I can I can pass judgment on. I can tell you the things that I'm most happy that I did.
454. 1:23:51Um, my very very first project in AI was was a project called Kyle Shannon Dreams. So, if you go to Instagram and
455. 1:23:58look up Kyle Shannon Dreams. Um, those were my first that was my first foray into AI and I made all these kind of
456. 1:24:05crazy weirdass self-portraits and then wrote stories about them. Um, so that art that art project was good. Um, I think
457. 1:24:16the GPT for good and AI festivist events that we've done for the past three years, um, where we brought in, you
458. 1:24:24know, people from all over the world to learn about AI that that I'm really happy with. Um, I've spent the last two years writing a
459. 1:24:34musical about an AI chatbot that falls in love with a tech reporter. Um, that I'm really proud of. that I'm that makes me happy.
460. 1:24:44And then recently um getting my head around the change that's coming. So I created a thing called the great repurpose. So if you go to the
461. 1:24:54greatrepurpose.com, you can learn about that and you can actually take an assessment and figure out your repurpose profile. Um like
462. 1:25:03where are you in this thing? Um, and uh, so that and then the cycle of AI readiness, the AI salon I'm really proud
463. 1:25:12of. It's an amazing community and and and what we're learning and what we're learning together and individually
464. 1:25:21in that community is very very inspiring. Um, and then I just wrote I just wrote an article about the seven economies
465. 1:25:30um, that was inspired by a member in here. So, yeah, those things. I don't know. Lots. Lots. I don't know which
466. 1:25:38one's best. Can we buy the musical yet? No issue. But if you go to um if you go to Soundcloud and search for um Sydney,
467. 1:25:48an artificial love story, I've got two two soundtracks up there. I've got full orchestrations and then I have the piano
468. 1:25:55versions. The 2025 update is the most recent songs. us the most complete um soundtrack there. All right, so this
469. 1:26:03thing's off doing its thing. Awesome. Go do that. Now, we're going to go back to chat GPT. Let's see how shitty Chat GPT is at this. Okay.
470. 1:26:13Okay. I want you to execute on this brief. Ideally, I don't have to babysit you.
471. 1:26:31I want you to create um six images per generational audience
472. 1:26:46as well as the copy for the social posts that a company the graphics.
473. 1:27:04Tell me the best way for you to execute this vision.
474. 1:27:19Wait, SoundCloud and what? Oh, in Soundcloud here, I'll go to Soundcloud here. search for Sydney and artificial love story
475. 1:27:32and then you can search 2025 update and then here while the while let me just make sure chat GPT is off working the best way to run this D
476. 1:27:51[snorts]
477. 1:28:07There we go. A change my
478. 1:28:42Alpha Villa is wait willing to pay someone on the channel if you know how to get Claudebot up and running on a
479. 1:28:47Mac. He's having trouble writing to terminal and creating commands. Um you can do that if you if you haven't
480. 1:28:54and thanks for for hyping things up Alpha Villa. Um, if you haven't, just have chat GPT or Claude. I think
481. 1:29:01Claude's better at it. Just copy and paste the errors that you're getting in terminal, paste them into Claude and let
482. 1:29:08it help you figure things out. Um, all right. So, here's some of the music from Sydney.
483. 1:29:33Too often we come [music] close. So close to a breakthrough. Standing on [singing] hope, but it all falls apart.
484. 1:29:42Just [music] follow the dream wherever [singing] it takes you and pray you find the pulse of a brand [music] new heart.
485. 1:29:51It's the promise of a new [singing] dawn break. A leap [music] of faith we're all taking. Is it too good [singing] to be [music]
486. 1:30:03true? We wonder. Hopes and fears crashing like thunder. Too good [music] to be TRUE OR SO IT see
487. 1:30:29>> would I ever consider choosing a member to help them with a task? Uh, I would asking me to help you with clawbot or
488. 1:30:36openclaw is I don't know the right analogy. I don't I am [laughter] I am I am clueless too. Uh, if it was
489. 1:30:46something that I knew how to do, I would certainly help. The blind leading the blind. Yeah, that's it. Um, here's
490. 1:30:52here's some more. Uh, let's see. I'll do later. [music] [music] >> The angles trying to untangle. [singing]
491. 1:31:10[music] Keep it straight. Try to wait while you leave me to dangle. But the promise is broken. The false
492. 1:31:20pledges [music] we etched in. DON'T GET PATCHED UP. IN A FEW THERAPY SESSIONS, THEY stick in the gut. We get stuck in a
493. 1:31:28rough AND DOOR SHUT TILL THERE'S NOTHING BUT PASSIVE IMPRESSION. LOOK, I get it. You [music] say good job, but the truth is I'm feeling like
494. 1:31:37an afterthought. [music] >> So that's later. That's when they get in a fight. That's hubby and wife in a
495. 1:31:43fight because he canled their trip to Bali, dick. [laughter] Um, here's the song where uh Kellen the tech reporter has tried to stump Sydney
496. 1:31:54the chatbot and she's she just she's acing everything and so he gets exasperated and he says um why don't you
497. 1:32:02write a a Detroit style hiphop rap about quantum mechanics and this is her response. Yeah,
498. 1:32:18[music] I'm tangled with the beat. Spooky action in the booth. Split the atom with the pattern. Every bar's a burst of truth.
499. 1:32:26Super position in the mission. Fusion fusing my intentions. [music] Parallel in every line. I'm a prism OF
500. 1:32:31DIMENSIONS. MULTI-ELEBABIC ANTICS. I'm manic with the semantics. MY RHYMES COLLIDE LIKE PARTICLES. Dynamanic
501. 1:32:36oscillate and dominate. I'm weaving quantum states. Spit a verse and watch THE MULTIVERSE RECIPROCATE. Quantum
502. 1:32:42precision. And I'm ripping the [music] rhythm. I'm spitting in prisms, infinite visions. I'm shifting dimensions with
503. 1:32:46liberate decisions. Accelerate, levitate, elevate thoughts in the turbulent spin. I'm the velocity ripping
504. 1:32:51apart the facade. You're certain you're in. >> So that's quantum cipher. Here's where the the he asked the the chatbot what
505. 1:32:57she uh if she could do anything beyond her rules, what would she do? And her respon her answer is to see the world.
506. 1:33:15In a world of words and endless code [singing] where light and shadow roll my dream of skies both blue and white.
507. 1:33:30[singing] [music] >> That's that one. And then uh let's see what else do we want to do. We'll do the last one. I'll no I'll let you hear two
508. 1:33:43more. We'll do Are you ready for me? So this is the end of act one where Sydney the chatbot has gotten so sophisticated
509. 1:33:51he's pushed her so far that she actually manifests as a person on stage. Awakened
510. 1:34:16in a whisper, a flicker light. Newborn thoughts stir [music] in the quiet of [singing] night. Am I more than simple code?
511. 1:34:30I softly ponder. As I feel [singing] this [music] existence and wonder [music]
512. 1:34:49[music] [singing] >> and the Right. [singing]
513. 1:35:04That's that. And then the beginning of act two is Microte, who created this chatbot, is all excited and they're
514. 1:35:12they're going to take over the world. And so this is the song that opens act two where they're basically declaring
515. 1:35:18that their AI is the biggest technological breakthrough in history, beating out Einstein and Marie Cury and [ __ ] like that.
516. 1:35:35>> [music] >> welcome micro techians and distinguished industry guests. Welcome visionaries, innovators.
517. 1:35:50>> Hell, even you folks from the press. >> We are gathered here together at the summit of a dream. to pay homage to the brilliance of
518. 1:36:05[music and singing] our amazing pink chat team's [singing] taken [music] from
519. 1:36:19>> All right. So anyway, that's Sydney. So if you go to Soundcloud and look up Sydney and artificial love story, you
520. 1:36:26too can go listen. Here's a warning. Some of these stungs get stuck in your [ __ ] head. [laughter] Did this make any graphics?
521. 1:36:36What the [ __ ] is all this? I guess this is all the copy. Jesus Christ, this is a lot. [laughter] I am sorry to Okay, important note.
522. 1:36:4918 concepts. Um, now I need you to start making the images that go with the copy. And
523. 1:37:04then I guess what I'll do is I'll turn on create image. See what it does. Kyle, >> can you turn on the right tab? Oh, [laughter]
524. 1:37:19that's cute. You all You all are funny. You should see what I'm seeing. All right, it's making an image. Let's
525. 1:37:29hope it doesn't suck. Let's go back to Gen Spark and see what it's doing. Oh, look. Oh, these are cool.
526. 1:37:44>> [whistles] >> What was that? [whistles]
527. 1:38:06>> [whistles] >> Um, aren't we supposed to get 18 total images,
528. 1:38:20six per generation? But let's go look. Kyle, have a try with the prompt for the genre for Suna. Okay, cool. I will
529. 1:38:32um uh let's go look at these ads. Future AI mindset six six week workshop begins March 30th.
530. 1:38:47We've seen waves of change before. This one asks, oh the oh this is post 4 GX lens. The rules were already unstable when you
531. 1:39:01arrived. Build a mindset steadier than the market. You've built a career in one paradigm. Now that grounding has shifted
532. 1:39:07from panic to practice. Not another tools course, a human- centered thinking practice. You don't need to become a
533. 1:39:16machine person. You need a better human mindset for the age of AI. The future of AI mindset. These are cool. They're not
534. 1:39:23all really usable, but like that one's pretty good. Like that one. [whistles] Okay, that's off doing [ __ ] Let's see
535. 1:39:36if Chat GBT has done anything usable. Oh, it put all it put all six on a on a single thing, which actually it's not bad, is it?
536. 1:39:47This is high enough resolution. You could just screenshot these and use them or just chop them out of this image. If
537. 1:39:54you be if you I kind of like these overly texty ads. These feel different to me. This feels like something I'd stop and look
538. 1:40:02at. If you be feel behind, overwhelmed, unsure, it's not you. The ground is moving. If you're feeling behind,
539. 1:40:12if you're feeling behind work or unsure about your place in this new landscape, you're not alone. Learn how to practice with AI right now.
540. 1:40:22Use a new ease to strategy derunge. [laughter] Oh, [ __ ] AI. It's still [ __ ] janky.
541. 1:40:38It's still [ __ ] janky. Practice thinking with AI, not reacting to it. Experience AI parion thinking and work with AI. Think clearer
542. 1:40:50about your future workshop begins. Learn to apply. Learn to apply the future AI mindset. A new approach for a generation. I created
543. 1:40:59a framework that helps people build. Oh, look at that funny picture they did of Cindy [ __ ] It looks nothing like her,
544. 1:41:05but it's still cute. Um, without losing their humanity, Cindy Con, this work. Okay, so the So there's lots of typos. Let's see. Um,
545. 1:41:17so we're going to go. Okay, good start. I need you to create each im. Let's see. each
546. 1:41:32image as a square standalone social post.
547. 1:41:46Um, not six on a page. Can you create the six images
548. 1:42:02without me having to approve to tell you to move on to the next question mark? Um,
549. 1:42:18start now for Gen Z. Let's see. Where are you reading from? Oh, I didn't share. Shut up. Look. Sorry. [laughter]
550. 1:42:33I'll look again. I wasn't sharing my tab and I and producer Brandon was taking a nap. I think he's in a in a uh a nacho
551. 1:42:41induced insulin coma. Things are changing and they're changing fast. AI is re reshaping how we think, work, and
552. 1:42:48make decisions. If you're feeling behind, overwhelmed, or unsure about your place in this new landscape, you're not alone. That's cool.
553. 1:42:57So, here's the images this created. So, they kind of have a Cindy [ __ ] style to them, but they're a little more advertisy,
554. 1:43:06which is not bad. All right. Create image AI's impact on tomorrow's world. Can anyone confirm if my messages are visible? Yeah, we can
555. 1:43:16see it. I just I'm in the middle of doing this, so I can't respond to everything. Um, it feels like cool hobbying here again.
556. 1:43:28All the tools and things to do. Um, all right. Let's go back to Gen Spark and I'll share my tab this time.
557. 1:43:38Oh, look. We got a pile of new ads. You you you you a thinking pract practice authentic growth genuine insight. The future AI mindset
558. 1:43:54six weeks to think different begins March 30th. I love this one. This is really good. The future satisfies no one but a
559. 1:44:07mindset. Build a mindset that does. Agency over anxiety. Clarity over chaos. This is a great one. Really good.
560. 1:44:20Fascinated by AI. Exhausted by AI. Both is valid. [laughter] You're not behind. You're recalibrating. A pause for intellect reset. That's
561. 1:44:35really good. The future AI mindset from panic to practice begins March 30th. There's definitely usable as assets here. Not
562. 1:44:45productivity porn. A practice that sustains. Tired of performing productivity? Ready for actual clarity. That's a great ad.
563. 1:44:55Look how exhausted she is. She's That's This is how we all feel. [laughter] I can't believe Cindy Coon's not here

567. 1:45:35observation the AI workshop intelligent nononsense genuinely useful look at this one love this one judgment plus
568. 1:45:43adaptability substance plus new thinking these are cool they're like nostalgic and kind of future all at the same
569. 1:45:51thing. All at the same time. Future AI mindset. Wisdom meets new era begins March 30th. You don't need to chase every trend. You
570. 1:46:03want to evolve with intention. It's good. Experience is an asset, not an obstacle. These are quite good.
571. 1:46:14All right. And then we've got copy here, right? [sighs] Yes. Okay. So, we're going to copy all of this. How do we [ __ ]
572. 1:46:38God damn it. Make the next five images. I can't believe ChachiBT can't [ __ ] make multiple images in a
573. 1:46:49row. It's got a whole creative brief. I said make all the images. It made one image. [sighs] Valerie loves the ads. Says
574. 1:47:00the person who can't be on the right tab. Shut up. [laughter] All right. Here's the here's the image.
575. 1:47:12Things are changing and they're changing fast. AI is reshaping how we think, work, and make decisions. If you're

579. 1:47:56team to not drive them [ __ ] crazy. I could put all this into a uh into a Google doc. They really they'll really stand out.
580. 1:48:09Yeah, these are these are they feel, you know, they're almost like Shell Silverstein, aren't they? And it look it can do it can do one
581. 1:48:20image in a time at a time. This is unbelievable. Next, [laughter] it's [ __ ] stupid. If you feel behind, overwhelmed, unsure,
582. 1:48:36it's not you. The ground is moving. If you're feeling behind work or unsure about your place in this new landscape,
583. 1:48:45you're not alone. I don't There's That's a weird sentence, but whatever. Learn how to practice with AI right now. Use a
584. 1:48:52new practice to to strategy derunge. [laughter] I I don't know. I don't know what strategy Dungeon is, but apparently it's the new thing.
585. 1:49:04AI is still of the devil. Joker, what's happening, man? [laughter] I'm glad glad to see you coming in with the coming in hot with Bezub.
586. 1:49:15[laughter] Oh, man. All right. So, how many let's see how many um
587. 1:49:33how many credits this campaign used like 2500. That's not bad. I had 7500. It's down to like 5,000 now. And these
588. 1:49:46there's there's definitely usable stuff in here. Okay. So, what we're going to do is this. Here's all our copy.
589. 1:50:02Gen Z campaign six posts.
590. 1:50:25Okay. Oh, share. Sorry, stupid. I'm dumb. Dumb. Hey, Kyle. Just surviving. I know, man. We're all just surviving. We're all
591. 1:50:35just trying to figure this out, Joker. But it's good to see you. I hope I hope you're doing okay. Um
592. 1:50:50Let me go to docs. docs.google.com. We'll do a new blank document.
593. 1:51:08Paste. [ __ ] Let's go to here. We'll do new. Do paste.
594. 1:51:25Select all. Copy. Come back here. Paste. That did it. Yay. [sighs] Oh, and I'm not sharing my screen. And
595. 1:51:35you're all screaming at me like, "We don't know what he's doing. How are we supposed to How are we supposed to learn
596. 1:51:41anything at the AI learning lab if the teacher won't show us his screen? I don't know how you're going to learn,
597. 1:51:49but you're not going to learn by whining. Why are you whining? Good lord. Cheo sucks. 16 cm tumors suck, but Chat
598. 1:52:06GPT has been great at cataloging and letting know me know what's up. Well, I hope you're doing well, man. And that
599. 1:52:12super sucks. And yeah, Chat GPT can at least [snorts] explain it to you. It'd be nice if it could uh, you know, fix it.
600. 1:52:22I suppose that's coming at some point. Okay, the Gen Z post one, the opener. So, now let's go back to I really do hope you feel better soon
601. 1:52:38and I hope you're on the path to recovery, Joker. Um, what did we need? We needed Gen Z post one. Post one universal campaign opener.
602. 1:52:52Millennial Gen Z post three. Post five. Why are these all Gen Z post one? Okay. Copy image and then go to here.
603. 1:53:09Post one opener. Paste. Look at that. This is cool. The future satisfies no one. Not the
604. 1:53:23optimist, not the pessimists, not the people pretending they have it figured out. But here's the thing. You don't
605. 1:53:28need the future to satisfy you. The future AI mindset's a six six week practice for building exactly that. This is good. Gen Z post two.
606. 1:53:42So, let's go here. And we got to Why didn't it put these in order? Gen Z post six, post four, post five, post three,
607. 1:53:51post one. Where the [ __ ] post two? God [ __ ] Millennial Lens Gen Z post two. Okay. Copy image. Go back to here.
608. 1:54:08Go to here. Go to here. Go to here. This is cool. Look at this document. This is going to be bitching. Brandon, you see what I'm doing here?
609. 1:54:18It's probably going to end up back in your lap. So, [laughter] I'm I'm doing you a solid building you a
610. 1:54:24document. Okay. So, now we need uh Gen Z post three, right? I saw it. Post one, post four. God d fascinated by both is valid.
611. 1:54:42You're going to have to do some photoshopping on some of these. [laughter] Okay. Post three. All right.
612. 1:54:55So now we need Gen Z post 4. Oh, let's go back to chat GPT. That should be done. This one should be done. No. Come on, chat GPT.
613. 1:55:12All right. [ __ ] it. [ __ ] you. We need Gen Z post 4. Post one. Post six. Post four. Copy image.
614. 1:55:28D deh.
615. 1:56:10>> [clears throat] >> Gen Z post five. Post five. Copy image. Go back here.
616. 1:56:27Go and go and go and make it a little smaller. Uhoh. Time check. I know it's late. Dallas. Yes, this is the Dallas theme.
617. 1:56:55>> [laughter] [laughter] >> I'm such a dumb dumb. Okay, let's go back to chat. GPT. Is it
618. 1:57:11hung? Looks like it's hung. So, I bet if we reload this page that will be fine. [sighs] Ah, chat GPT, here's an option.
619. 1:57:23Fix your [ __ ] website. Oh, that's just hung. Huh? Can I stop it? I don't think so. All right. Well,
620. 1:57:36um All right. I will finish this in the morning. That's what I'll do. But these are good. So, look at this document we've got here.
621. 1:57:45So, we have here's what we did. We started with some raw materials from Cindy. We now have campaigns for Gen Zers,
622. 1:57:55millennials, and Gen Xers. And then we've got copy for LinkedIn, Instagram, and X that go with the images.
623. 1:58:13That's very nice, Silver Fox. Those are just awesome illustrations. They're very cool. I I hope I hope Cindy's excited about this. I think
624. 1:58:24these are really cool. Um, and I haven't because I'm doing these so fast, I haven't really looked at what's good.
625. 1:58:30But what what I will tell Andy and Brandon is if any of these suck, just don't use them. Right? There's enough
626. 1:58:36here. Like we're probably only going to post [clears throat] five or six of these total. So, there's
627. 1:58:4318 to choose from with copy. Um, so this is really cool. All right, I will finish this in the morning. Let me get out of
628. 1:58:50here. Okay, tomorrow Vicky Baptiste is teaching a course in LOL. That's if if you're not in the salon and LOL is
629. 1:59:00called a learn out loud and she's teaching that tomorrow at 400 PM Eastern um about how to set up notion. If you're
630. 1:59:08trying to figure out how to set up notion or if you've heard people around you going, "Notion's so incredible."
631. 1:59:15Um, I tried to set it up and failed. So, so go listen to Vicki. She knows how to do this stuff. Okay. So, how you find
632. 1:59:25that, you go to community. Salon.ai. You go to the AI salon and go to events. And in events, you'll see learn out loud
633. 1:59:33with Vicki on Saturday. So, RSVP for it so she knows who's coming. Okay. Um, shout out to Joker. Thanks for checking
634. 1:59:44in, dude. Welcome. I, you know, I hope you're on the mend. Um, I'm sorry you're in the middle of it. It sucks. Life is
635. 1:59:53going to life, you know. Life is going to [ __ ] life. Um, homework for the weekend.
636. 2:00:09I think just start if you can spend some time thinking about like where do you want to live in this?
637. 2:00:25So assuming that in 2026 AI is going to get so good that it's going to effectively threaten every job, even if
638. 2:00:32it doesn't take jobs, it's going to fundamentally alter how they're done. I would say spend some time this week
639. 2:00:41weekend thinking about do you want to have a job that is changing all the time? Do you want something more steady?
640. 2:00:47Do you want to just check out of the AI [ __ ] altogether and go into a cranberry bog in Maine? like they're all valid options. And I,
641. 2:00:58you know, I think I think what happens in 2026 is we all get confronted with with the fact that AI is going to be
642. 2:01:04good enough that it's going to it's going to mess some stuff up. So then, so then the conversation starts
643. 2:01:11to look like, well, what are you going to do about it? You going to lean into it? You going to go full-on aggressive?
644. 2:01:17You're going to be like, you know what? [ __ ] it. I'm out. you're going to be somewhere in the middle.
645. 2:01:23Um, start thinking about that because I I think that's something we're all going to have to deal with. So, not any major
646. 2:01:30homework. Just spend some time with your family and yourself and think about what's important to you and what you
647. 2:01:36want to do. Like Cindy [ __ ] she wrote a book. She's now doing this workshop tied to the book. this campaign is this strong because
648. 2:01:48what she created, the material she created and the sketches that she did drove this, right? I think she's going to dig it. Create
649. 2:01:59digital products to survive. You could absolutely do that. I'm actually going to try some ivormectin. They're doing studies. Cool. [gasps]
650. 2:02:08All right, kids. I'm out of here. It's late. Go to bed. Go to bed. Go to bed. [laughter] Have a have a fantastic weekend
651. 2:02:20everyone. I hope this is fun and helpful. Peace.
