Transcript

1. 0:00<b>They catch up in a western heat and direction.</b> <b>[MUSIC - "I'M A WONDERING"]</b> <b>This car is my train.</b>
2. 0:18<b>I've been driving, I've been wondering</b> <b>what is a woman from again.</b> <b>I feel like an 80-year-old man holding on to 29.</b>
3. 0:35<b>And up ahead on that horizon is California life.</b>
4. 0:51<b>Up ahead are trucks carrying a wide load.</b> <b>Pre-fab house cut in half.</b> <b>Cute little front door into windows, my lord.</b>
5. 1:03<b>Ain't sure that a driver should have left.</b> <b>You see, I broke a home of myself once.</b> <b>As I stumbled to that door, I</b>
6. 1:16<b>read a note by the dawn's light.</b> <b>Said, don't you come round here anymore.</b> <b>Well, I've had enough.</b>
7. 1:32<b>But I heard the sweet old mother of mine.</b> <b>Never was good with decision.</b> <b>At least that's what I've been told.</b>
8. 1:51<b>[CHAMPSHANON SOUNDS]</b> <b>Champ Shannon, that was some beautiful singing.</b> <b>Beautiful singing by Champ Shannon.</b>
9. 1:58<b>Loved backing that dog up.</b> <b>He's the lead singer of his own band and his own mind.</b> <b>His name's Champ.</b>
10. 2:05<b>Most he's ever gotten is a participation certificate,</b> <b>so you do the math.</b> <b>Um, Champ, we love you.</b>
11. 2:15<b>We love you as if you were a champion.</b> <b>[MUSIC - CHAMPSHANON, "SICK COLD"]</b>
12. 2:43<b>I heard that wild sick old baby</b> <b>played, and it pleased the Lord.</b> <b>You don't really care for music, do you?</b>
13. 2:58<b>Well, it goes like this, the fourth or fifth.</b> <b>Mine will fall in a major lift.</b> <b>That for king composing, hallelujah.</b>
14. 3:13<b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b>
15. 3:35<b>Well, your faith was strong, but she needed proof.</b> <b>It's all a-bailing on the roof.</b>
16. 3:43<b>Her beauty and her moonlight overthrew you.</b> <b>She tied you up to the kitchen chair.</b>
17. 3:53<b>She smashed her throat, cut your hair, and from your lips,</b> <b>she drove hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b>
18. 4:11<b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b>
19. 4:25<b>Key change.</b> <b>Does Satan wear a suit and tie?</b> <b>Does he work at the Dairy Queen?</b> <b>Does he listen to rock and roll?</b>
20. 4:37<b>Does he feed the mean?</b> <b>Singing hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b>
21. 4:50<b>But what about Jesus?</b> <b>Didn't he do a two, yeah?</b> <b>Hang out with the prostitutes.</b> <b>Have a drink or two.</b>
22. 5:00<b>For the power of example, my mama said it, and I heard.</b> <b>She said one ounce of action beats a ton of words.</b>
23. 5:10<b>Singing hallelujah.</b> <b>I said there would be angels.</b> <b>Hallelujah.</b> <b>Mama said there would be sons.</b>
24. 5:24<b>You know what's funny is with ADD,</b> <b>I've got about the attention span to</b> <b>do two verses and a chorus of a song,</b>
25. 5:34<b>and as a dog, he's got about the attention span to do two</b> <b>verses and two choruses of a song.</b> <b>So it all works out.</b>
26. 5:44<b>If you're wondering what the fuck is</b> <b>going on here, my name's Kyle Shannon.</b> <b>This is the AI Learning Lab,</b>
27. 5:48<b>and what we do here is we learn.</b> <b>We used to learn about all these</b> <b>cool new tools, these AI tools,</b>
28. 5:55<b>and I would talk incessantly about</b> <b>how to prompt and how to prompt engineer</b> <b>and how to make images and make</b>
29. 6:02<b>songs and make this and make that.</b> <b>And I think learning is changing for this AI stuff.</b> <b>We're in a new place.</b>
30. 6:15<b>Oh, let me tell you a couple of things here.</b> <b>One is, oh, wait, let me do this for the folks on the</b>
31. 6:22<b>TikTok so I can be looking at everyone.</b> <b>Let me get the black bar up, because if I don't do that,</b>
32. 6:26<b>producer Brandon's going to have my head.</b> <b>You know, he's rough.</b> <b>Listen, he's a producer.</b>
33. 6:32<b>He's going to be like, "I thought we were putting on a</b> <b>professional show here, Mr. Shannon."</b>
34. 6:36<b>You don't know what I have to deal with.</b> <b>Anyway, Brandon wasn't here</b> <b>Friday because this is hilarious.</b>
35. 6:46<b>He chose to spend time with his family.</b> <b>Oh, good Lord.</b> <b>Anyway, as a result, he's</b>
36. 6:57<b>absolutely flipping exhausted, right?</b> <b>So he might be a little under the weather, right?</b>
37. 7:03<b>On top of that, me and the Mrs., we got flu shots over the</b> <b>weekend, and I am feeling like dog shit.</b>
38. 7:10<b>Conveniently, I've got a dog right here, so if I need some</b> <b>dog shit, I can have all I want.</b>
39. 7:15<b>So my guess is that this is probably going to go a little</b> <b>short tonight, which is still going to be longer than any</b>
40. 7:22<b>of you should reasonably watch.</b> <b>In fact, most of you should</b> <b>probably have scrolled on by now.</b> <b>Oh, good Lord.</b>
41. 7:38<b>Oh, we got Anne Murphy in the house.</b> <b>Want some comic relief?</b> <b>Yeah, get up here.</b> <b>Help me.</b>
42. 7:44<b>Brandon, can you get Anne Murphy a StreamYard link?</b> <b>Let's get her up on the StreamYard,</b>
43. 7:49<b>and then we can do the StreamYard thing.</b> <b>Yeah, it's funny.</b> <b>One of the things I was going to talk about tonight was the</b>
44. 8:05<b>Sam Altman blog post, which I</b> <b>thought was quite significant.</b> <b>And if you're like, "Who's Sam Altman?" That's okay.</b>
45. 8:13<b>We will only heckle you for a short amount of time.</b> <b>You can Google him, or better yet, go ask ChatGPT.</b>
46. 8:23<b>And then, what else was I going to talk about?</b> <b>I was going to talk about the 10 steps to AI readiness.</b>
47. 8:35<b>So we're shifting.</b> <b>This event we did, Anne Murphy and I did AI Festivus a</b> <b>couple of weeks back now, or two weeks ago.</b>
48. 8:44<b>I don't fucking know, between Christmas and New Year's.</b> <b>Something was very apparent in that</b>
49. 8:51<b>event for me, and it was about the humanity.</b> <b>It was about the people.</b> <b>It wasn't about the tools at all.</b>
50. 9:00<b>34 out of 34 speakers.</b> <b>They talked about tools, but everything was in the context</b> <b>of what their goals were as people.</b>
51. 9:08<b>And I think that's the shit we have to learn.</b> <b>Ethan Mollick, about a month or so ago, six weeks ago, said</b>
52. 9:17<b>that he thinks that with the advent of AGI and with agents,</b> <b>that big organizations should be stockpiling problems, so</b>
53. 9:27<b>that when these new tools come,</b> <b>they know exactly the kinds of things they want to solve.</b>
54. 9:32<b>I think there's a similar corollary for individuals, which</b> <b>is, we all need to get crystal clear on who we are</b>
55. 9:40<b>and what we want out of life, and do</b> <b>that exercise as if there were no limits.</b> <b>Like, if you've ever had the</b>
56. 9:53<b>excuse, "Well, I didn't go to college."</b> <b>"Well, I didn't learn to do that.</b> <b>I should have gone to trade school."</b>
57. 9:58<b>Whatever it might be, a lot of</b> <b>those barriers are about to vanish.</b>
58. 10:09<b>And I think there is a, I call it the great renaissance.</b> <b>I think there's a massive creative wave</b>
59. 10:14<b>coming that we all get to be a part of.</b> <b>All right.</b> <b>Anne Murphy, still there?</b> <b>Did we get you the link?</b>
60. 10:22<b>I can probably get you the link, too.</b> <b>D, D, D, D, D, I don't know.</b> <b>Maybe Brandon didn't hear me the last time.</b>
61. 10:30<b>Did you hear me, Brandon?</b> <b>Can we get Anne Murphy a StreamYard link?</b> <b>Or did she go away?</b>
62. 10:48<b>She has the link.</b> <b>She just hasn't joined.</b> <b>This is so funny, because when we did our Zoom call for...</b>
63. 10:59<b>This is comic relief.</b> <b>When we did our Zoom call for the, what's it called?</b>
64. 11:08<b>The AI readiness training that we're putting together.</b> <b>Links were an issue.</b> <b>So if she can't use the link,</b>
65. 11:19<b>we will torture her relentlessly.</b> <b>Oh, man.</b> <b>I hope everyone's well.</b> <b>I hope you had a good weekend.</b>
66. 11:28<b>If anyone did any homework, thought about, I think one of</b> <b>the homework things I thought was,</b>
67. 11:33<b>or I asked you to think about, was</b> <b>who do you want to be when you grow up?</b> <b>George Gibbs is telling Alan</b>
68. 11:42<b>that most people watch on TikTok.</b> <b>Oh, on LinkedIn.</b> <b>Yeah, LinkedIn is a weird one.</b>
69. 11:49<b>LinkedIn is one that I have gone back and forth on whether</b> <b>or not to even put this on LinkedIn,</b>
70. 11:56<b>because it's a different kind of</b> <b>audience, and I've even had some feedback.</b> <b>You're a little fancy.</b>
71. 12:03<b>You're a little informal for</b> <b>LinkedIn when you're on your TikTok.</b> <b>I don't know if you should put it there.</b>
72. 12:10<b>I think it's off brand.</b> <b>Well, I have one person say that.</b> <b>But, you know, having a neurospicy brain, I can hear 5,000</b>
73. 12:22<b>"You're awesomes" and one person go, "Ahhh."</b> <b>That's the one I listen to.</b> <b>Shame is my love language.</b>
74. 12:37<b>We like you off brand.</b> <b>Thank you very much.</b> <b>Are you ready for AI.com?</b> <b>Go check that out.</b>
75. 12:45<b>Anne Murphy, there she is.</b> <b>Bang.</b> <b>Hey, Anne Murphy.</b> <b>Hi, everybody.</b> <b>What's happening?</b>
76. 12:51<b>You know, I'm making lentils.</b> <b>Look.</b> <b>Oh, nice.</b> <b>Oh, yeah.</b> <b>Oh, that's good.</b> <b>Yeah.</b>
77. 12:59<b>You know, sideways so we can see you better.</b> <b>This way?</b> <b>Yeah.</b> <b>This way?</b> <b>Yes.</b>
78. 13:06<b>Yeah, because then you fill up the screen on the YouTube.</b> <b>Okay, if that's what you want. Okay, if that's what you want.</b>
79. 13:12<b>That's what you get.</b> <b>You're checking while you're making lentils.</b> <b>I love that.</b>
80. 13:17<b>Brandon's coming back from a family vacation exhausted.</b> <b>He made the mistake of spending time with his family.</b>
81. 13:23<b>I told him, Anne, you and I have talked about this.</b> <b>Just don't do it.</b> <b>We talked about this.</b> <b>Just don't do it.</b>
82. 13:28<b>Brandon, Brandon, have a shower.</b> <b>No, come on.</b> <b>We're getting together.</b> <b>I thought you were an AI professional.</b>
83. 13:34<b>We don't have families in AI.</b> <b>There's no families in AI.</b> <b>You generate your family in AI and then they're perfect.</b>
84. 13:43<b>Right?</b> <b>They're just what you want.</b> <b>Look at what we've all done.</b> <b>We've all abandoned our families for each other.</b>
85. 13:51<b>Come on.</b> <b>Exactly.</b> <b>Brandon.</b> <b>So what's happening?</b> <b>What do you want to tell the</b>
86. 13:56<b>good people out on the internet?</b> <b>So out on the internet.</b> <b>Well, I did want to.</b> <b>I did want to, what, what, just</b>
87. 14:06<b>get caught up a little bit, Kyle.</b> <b>So.</b> <b>Yeah, we, we haven't talked in two days, so we wanted to.</b> <b>So.</b>
88. 14:15<b>So to the, to the nice people out</b> <b>there, if I don't know you already,</b> <b>my name is Anne Murphy. And if I</b>
89. 14:21<b>do, hello, it's good to see you.</b> <b>So we're working on this.</b> <b>And we're doing a lot of training.</b>
90. 14:29<b>Built on top of the excellent</b> <b>work that everybody contributed to AI</b> <b>Festivus.</b>
91. 14:36<b>And what was really cool is that we</b> <b>sent this note out to the speakers.</b>
92. 14:42<b>earlier today saying, Hey, is it cool? You know,</b> <b>you've gave such a vinegar</b>
93. 14:46<b>presentation. You know, everybody just loved it.</b> <b>We can't stop hearing from people around the world,</b>
94. 14:56<b>we can't stop hearing from them.</b>
95. 14:56<b>It's just, it's just so, so cool. And then we have the questions, and so what kind of questions do you have to ask the questions? We have, is it really human? You all were, isn't that great?</b>
96. 14:57<b>Blah, blah, blah.</b> <b>And you know, lots of other information.</b> <b>And we'll ask them, you know, to</b>
97. 15:04<b>let me know, is it co-pensetted?</b> <b>If we use your excellent content for.</b> <b>The class going forward for this course.</b>
98. 15:12<b>And my, my email started blowing</b> <b>up immediately with people saying,</b> <b>Yes, yes. Yes. Yes.</b>
99. 15:24<b>One of the things that we've heard is our sponsors have</b> <b>seen a really big uptick in...</b>
100. 15:29<b>We told people, "Go check out the sponsors."</b> <b>The sponsors aren't just doing</b> <b>this for the good of themselves.</b>
101. 15:37<b>Go check them out.</b> <b>They've seen an uptick, and I want</b> <b>to do the same thing for the speakers.</b>
102. 15:42<b>I'm so excited about that.</b> <b>I think speakers being a part of this is just...</b> <b>It's going to be good for everyone.</b>
103. 15:48<b>Listen to this, everybody, people.</b> <b>The way... This is what's so remarkable. Listen, people.</b> <b>Listen.</b>
104. 15:55<b>Listen, listen.</b> <b>Listen.</b> <b>Listen. Listen.</b> <b>Hang on.</b> <b>I need to clear something up here.</b> <b>I've got...</b>
105. 15:58<b>I've got lentil anxiety.</b> <b>Don't burn your lentils.</b> <b>Are you good on the lentils?</b> <b>The lentils are literally...</b>
106. 16:03<b>They're right here.</b> <b>Hold on.</b> <b>Let me get a little stir time out.</b> <b>My dad has a very, very off-color sense of</b>
107. 16:12<b>humor, and he calls this little dish here,</b> <b>"Refugee Camp Gruel."</b>
108. 16:20<b>And it is only to be eaten during the first month of the</b> <b>year when you are swearing that</b>
109. 16:28<b>you are going to be a better human.</b> <b>Oh, yeah.</b> <b>You are.</b> <b>Right.</b> <b>I have had more salad in the past</b>
110. 16:34<b>three days than I think we have in 2024.</b> <b>So yeah.</b> <b>Totally understand.</b> <b>Yes.</b> <b>Next week, I'll be dipping my</b>
111. 16:41<b>Cheetos in Diet Coke for dinner again.</b> <b>Next to the normal diet.</b> <b>That's great.</b>
112. 16:51<b>Anyway, I'm going to interrupt you.</b> <b>Sorry.</b> <b>Go ahead.</b> <b>But listen.</b>
113. 16:54<b>So I have to tell everybody that we have been getting...</b> <b>I just wish...</b>
114. 17:02<b>I wish that I had enough hours in the day to properly</b> <b>package up some of the nice...</b> <b>It's the goodies that have</b>
115. 17:10<b>come our way because of Festivus.</b> <b>Because this one note that we got over</b> <b>the weekend, I think I sent it to Kyle.</b>
116. 17:19<b>It was this guy.</b> <b>He said that he had never heard...</b> <b>He's in India, and that he's not able to learn how to use</b>
117. 17:28<b>AI in the same ways that we are.</b> <b>And his note said, "Before I went to</b> <b>AI Festivus, I knew nothing about AI.</b>
118. 17:39<b>Now I am a king of AI.</b> <b>I know everything about AI."</b> <b>And what's amazing about that, I mean, I was just saying</b>
119. 17:50<b>this, is that to a person, no</b> <b>one talked about the tools.</b> <b>He's a king of AI because what everyone talked about is,</b>
120. 17:58<b>here's how you approach AI as a</b> <b>human being, right?</b> <b>The humanity was the thing that came through in that event.</b>
121. 18:04<b>And if you don't know, AI Festivus was a...</b> <b>It was over the course of two days, December 27th and 28th.</b>
122. 18:12<b>The recordings are available if you join the AI Salon.</b> <b>There's an AI Festivus space and</b>
123. 18:17<b>there's a resources area in there.</b> <b>But it was 34 different speakers over 23 sessions.</b>
124. 18:23<b>So 12 hours on Friday, 12 hours on Saturday, because Anne</b> <b>and I and all of the volunteers</b> <b>and all of the speakers and</b>
125. 18:31<b>all of the attendees are insane.</b> <b>Everybody's insane.</b> <b>Everybody's insane.</b> <b>And we had 3,200 plus people sign up.</b>
126. 18:40<b>We had 2,300 people show up, which if you've ever done</b> <b>events, having more than 50 percent</b>
127. 18:46<b>is not normal, show up versus sign up.</b> <b>And then we had an average</b> <b>concurrent attendance per session of 546.</b>
128. 18:57<b>It was amazing.</b> <b>Like on a holiday weekend.</b> <b>On a holiday weekend, yeah.</b> <b>It was funny, I talked to John Potter</b>
129. 19:04<b>today and he's like, "What is going on?"</b> <b>Like it was a holiday weekend.</b> <b>Why did everyone show up?</b>
130. 19:11<b>And I said, you know, I mean, look...</b> <b>Obviously.</b> <b>Obviously, there's a lot going on here, right?</b>
131. 19:17<b>You know, so that's...</b> <b>I mean, I think supermodel good</b> <b>looks can only account for what?</b>
132. 19:23<b>75 percent of the attendance?</b> <b>Those other 25 percent just came for the conference.</b> <b>Yeah, a fluke.</b>
133. 19:30<b>What was a fluke?</b> <b>The other ones were a mistake.</b> <b>I have two things about that.</b>
134. 19:37<b>One is I can't wait to hear the rest of that conversation.</b> <b>And then also, Vicki, I am getting people are...</b>
135. 19:45<b>Vicki's sending me a note.</b> <b>We're getting people, yes, and it just happened.</b> <b>So you're not missing out on anything.</b>
136. 19:52<b>I'm going to put those in those permission things together</b> <b>for you so that we get everybody all checked off.</b>
137. 19:58<b>Nice, neat, clean and organized.</b> <b>Yeah, exactly.</b> <b>And I were just ready to go.</b>
138. 20:04<b>Vicki was like, we might want to like...</b> <b>It's like a professional situation.</b> <b>We're like, Basha, professional.</b>
139. 20:15<b>Vicki is keeping us honest on this project.</b> <b>This is going to be...</b> <b>I'm so excited about this.</b>
140. 20:21<b>The AI readiness training that</b> <b>we're putting together is it's so good.</b> <b>So basically what we're doing</b>
141. 20:27<b>is like good AI practitioners,</b> <b>we're using AI to analyze all of what people presented and</b>
142. 20:35<b>organize and recombobulate it.</b> <b>Yeah, we're recombobulating it.</b> <b>Yeah, and it's going to be so good.</b>
143. 20:42<b>I'm so excited about it.</b> <b>So, yeah, I think this is actually a perfect example of</b>
144. 20:47<b>decombobulation and recombobulation, isn't it?</b> <b>Because we had to decombobulate it.</b>
145. 20:53<b>Right now we're in the decombobulating.</b> <b>Right?</b> <b>I don't see some people, what we're going to do...</b>
146. 21:00<b>With the AI magic, we're going to recombobulate it and then</b> <b>we're going to make it available for you to purchase.</b>
147. 21:08<b>Vicki's a step ahead of us there, but you and I will get</b> <b>recombobulated at some point here.</b>
148. 21:14<b>We'll get recombobulated at some point, but it was</b> <b>interesting because today I was</b> <b>talking or yesterday or whatever,</b>
149. 21:20<b>I've really been thinking a lot about</b> <b>search this week and how I think that</b>
150. 21:29<b>the changes or the trajectory of search is one of these</b> <b>examples of how you need to pay attention to some topics</b>
151. 21:40<b>even though you don't think you should.</b> <b>For example, I let SEO stuff come and go.</b>
152. 21:46<b>All of that stuff I acted like it didn't exist, right?</b> <b>Never paid attention to e-commerce particularly.</b>
153. 21:53<b>All that stuff. I was just a victim of it, if anything. I</b> <b>didn't know where it was going.</b>
154. 21:57<b>Because you didn't have the money to invest, you didn't</b> <b>have the time to invest, you have ADHD, whatever it is.</b>
155. 22:01<b>If ADHD, SEO sounds boring, I don't know.</b> <b>It requires follow through.</b> <b>I've never touched it for that reason.</b>
156. 22:14<b>I didn't even hear... I didn't know what</b> <b>A-B testing was until a couple years ago.</b>
157. 22:20<b>I wasn't going to dive in with SEO and whatnot.</b> <b>So, if you think about search and you think about how now</b>
158. 22:27<b>AI hits the scene with search,</b> <b>how it changes the user experience in the way that it is.</b>
159. 22:33<b>Those of us who would happily scroll through four pages of</b> <b>purple links and add deep dives into each one,</b>
160. 22:43<b>grab a little piece of information</b> <b>here, a little piece of information there.</b> <b>These are the same people, it's us, who</b>
161. 22:48<b>went to the stacks when we were in college</b> <b>and who actually used microfiche.</b>
162. 22:55<b>For us, going around Scavenger Hunt, around the internet to</b> <b>get a question answered, still seemed luxurious.</b>
163. 23:05<b>But now, then perplexity comes out and now we're so</b> <b>burdened if we have to Google.</b>
164. 23:11<b>But now what I'm hearing about the Google deep research,</b> <b>about how it's supposedly now better than perplexity,</b>
165. 23:20<b>when people are saying that perplexity is not as good</b> <b>anymore in part because they introduced shopping.</b>
166. 23:29<b>So, to me this is an example of if you pick a little thread</b> <b>in AI and you pull at it a little bit,</b>
167. 23:39<b>now you're seeing how over time</b> <b>these things are going to change a lot</b> <b>and you're going to know how to</b>
168. 23:46<b>use them before other people do.</b> <b>And you're going to know, do I buy stock in this? Do I not?</b>
169. 23:54<b>Do I learn? Whatever the new...</b> <b>Take the time to learn it, yeah, exactly.</b>
170. 23:58<b>Yeah, take the time to learn it and see what it does to the</b> <b>economy when search, as we know, it goes away.</b>
171. 24:06<b>Yeah, and just be prepared for what's coming and figure out</b> <b>how to get your company dealt with there.</b>
172. 24:14<b>A couple of quick things, Anne. So, Mr. Studio, Alan, who's</b> <b>a professor, has just volunteered</b>
173. 24:21<b>to be...oh, nice, Lentil Action.</b> <b>They're not burning. Your grill actually looks delicious.</b>
174. 24:27<b>It actually looks pretty delicious.</b> <b>That looks good. But he just volunteered to speak for 2025.</b>
175. 24:33<b>So, one of the things that before the curtain had dropped</b> <b>on Festivus 2025, I think</b> <b>we've had four or five, maybe more,</b>
176. 24:43<b>speakers like, "I'm in for next year. Do not put me on the</b> <b>list." So, we've got people that</b>
177. 24:48<b>didn't speak that are doing the same.</b> <b>So, one of the things that we're going to look at for all</b>
178. 24:53<b>of you is we think that this model of</b> <b>bringing in speakers from different communities</b>
179. 24:59<b>is something that deserves to live beyond just Festivus.</b> <b>So, I think Festivus, we've started a tradition, but I</b>
180. 25:05<b>think this model is really good.</b> <b>So, we're going to look at doing things. Order of</b> <b>operations. First thing we need</b>
181. 25:10<b>to do is get this training course,</b> <b>the AI Readiness Training Course ready, and then we'll look</b>
182. 25:15<b>at...we might do some more of these over the years.</b> <b>So, that I'm excited about. The other thing is this. I need</b>
183. 25:20<b>a thousand subscribers on YouTube to</b> <b>be an official business dude on YouTube.</b>
184. 25:26<b>I'm four subscribers away. Four. If you are near YouTube,</b> <b>go to youtube.com slash at</b>
185. 25:36<b>learninglab-ai and subscribe right now.</b> <b>You can unsubscribe a couple of weeks from now. I just need</b>
186. 25:42<b>to hit a thousand. You don't need...</b> <b>I get like 50 new subscribers while I'm on, and then</b>
187. 25:48<b>eventually I can just take over.</b> <b>Exactly. You can be the backup</b> <b>host. You're going to have...</b>
188. 25:55<b>I'm going to be the backup host, and</b> <b>we'll run the numbers up when you're gone.</b> <b>Exactly. Can you sing with champ?</b>
189. 26:03<b>Oh, boy.</b> <b>Well, I'm not...I am not a singer myself, so...</b> <b>I've heard you sing.</b> <b>Well, you've heard me sing.</b>
190. 26:16<b>There's a difference between that and I'm a singer.</b> <b>You know what?</b> <b>All right. Any last messages? I want to</b>
191. 26:24<b>let you get back to feeding your friends.</b> <b>Yeah. The lenses. Okay, so here is what I'm going to do.</b>
192. 26:31<b>I have been thinking about how...</b> <b>How chat GPT, etc. are so good at</b> <b>creating these training programs for us, right?</b>
193. 26:41<b>Like if you say, "I want to learn how to..." Whatever,</b> <b>whatever. Give me a three or four week training program.</b>
194. 26:46<b>I am going...I'm telling everybody this right now.</b> <b>I'm going to put myself on a training</b>
195. 26:52<b>program to be able to sing with Champy.</b> <b>At least one song someday.</b> <b>Sounds good.</b> <b>All right. We'll do it. We'll</b>
196. 27:02<b>bring you back for that. That's good.</b> <b>Daisy may yet. You can use...</b>
197. 27:07<b>Yeah. It's going to teach me what to do with my muscles in</b> <b>my neck and stuff to overcome whatever other problems there</b>
198. 27:16<b>are that make my voice sound the way</b> <b>it does when I sing "Happy Birthday."</b> <b>I'm going to improve upon it. And then</b>
199. 27:22<b>Champy and I will sing for everybody.</b> <b>All right. That's good. That's good. All right. Fantastic.</b>
200. 27:26<b>Thanks for having me. Bye, everybody.</b> <b>Hi, Anne. Great to see you.</b> <b>See you later.</b> <b>All right. Bye.</b>
201. 27:32<b>That was fun. She's the best. All right.</b> <b>Alan with Champ. Martin Sexton 101. Exactly.</b>
202. 27:41<b>Oh, so yes. Daisy may ask, "Can you use an alternative</b> <b>account? Does that count as an</b> <b>extra subscription on YouTube?"</b>
203. 27:47<b>I'm pretty sure it does. If you have</b> <b>17 YouTube accounts, sign them all up.</b>
204. 27:57<b>Oh, man. Now you're only three away. And you just subbed.</b> <b>OK. Ignore me. I'm not going to</b>
205. 28:03<b>ignore you. You just subbed. Two away.</b> <b>Go. Come on. There's got to be two people in here who have</b>
206. 28:08<b>not subscribed to my YouTube</b> <b>channel. Learning Lab Dash AI on YouTube.</b>
207. 28:13<b>And by the way, if you don't know what's on there, well, I</b> <b>don't know if this is an advertisement to subscribe, but</b>
208. 28:21<b>there's about 800 hours of TikTok lives on there.</b> <b>And then there's all there's other stuff there. But one</b>
209. 28:29<b>more. One more. Jeff Flanagan has 17 grandkids. Perfect.</b> <b>One more. One more. One more. Why</b>
210. 28:40<b>should I subscribe? Just to do me a favor.</b> <b>No. You subscribe. When I go live, you get notifications.</b>
211. 28:49<b>At some point we're going to like I don't know.</b> <b>There's going to be some benefit at some point, but I just</b>
212. 28:54<b>I need a thousand. Here's why we're now live streaming to</b> <b>YouTube is that one, TikTok may still go away.</b>
213. 29:07<b>I understand that Kevin O'Leary might buy it now.</b> <b>Apparently he's close to being</b> <b>able to buy it at the last minute.</b>
214. 29:13<b>But if it goes away, I need to be somewhere else. I need.</b> <b>Oh, we hit a thousand. Yes. Wait. That deserves a pink bow.</b>
215. 29:22<b>So if you subscribe, thank you. A thousand is the minimum</b> <b>you need on YouTube to be able</b>
216. 29:31<b>to do business stuff, basically.</b> <b>And so I have now hit it. Dang.</b>
217. 29:36<b>Lordy Case only 909 away. That's funny. Okay. I'd rather</b> <b>take classes through service now and</b>
218. 29:49<b>learn a real skill. Ouch. That's a troll.</b> <b>Yeah. Don't like if if this feels like bullshit to you, if</b>
219. 29:56<b>seeing a guy in a pink bow is not your cup of tea, I would</b> <b>leave. I would go now because for one thing, one of the</b>
220. 30:03<b>questions I get in here a lot</b> <b>is what are your qualifications?</b> <b>And we have established over a two year span that I have</b>
221. 30:09<b>zero qualification. So yeah, I would go to service now.</b> <b>Yeah. Go learn some skills. Go learn some skills. You'll</b>
222. 30:16<b>figure out later that I is going to automate all those</b> <b>skills anyway. Whatever. All right.</b>
223. 30:21<b>Actually go get certified on an AI program and learn their</b> <b>system so I can resell it. All</b>
224. 30:32<b>right. I don't know what that means.</b> <b>Dude, you're not telling us why we should subscribe to you.</b>
225. 30:38<b>You have to differentiate yourself. I don't know. You don't</b> <b>listen. You don't have to subscribe. Now, I was asking a</b>
226. 30:43<b>favor for anyone that likes this to go</b> <b>subscribe. You don't have to subscribe at all.</b>
227. 30:51<b>I do not care. This is the AI Learning Lab is more of a</b> <b>community that hangs out and is in the AI conversation than</b>
228. 31:02<b>it is an actual course. So yeah, you don't need to</b> <b>subscribe. Cool. All right. Sir, sir, what are your</b>
229. 31:10<b>qualifications? Yes, sir. I was</b> <b>inquiring. Coming up to you. Yes.</b>
230. 31:16<b>Fantastic. Well, it looks like you've got people assembled</b> <b>here and you call it some sort of laboratory and you seem</b>
231. 31:23<b>to be the head of the laboratory. And sir, I was inquiring.</b> <b>Not to be too forward. But sir, what? By</b>
232. 31:30<b>chance, pray tell. All your qualifications.</b> <b>Qualifications. Wow. A thousand subs and one detractor.</b>
233. 31:38<b>We'll take it. Oh man. This channel is not for everyone.</b> <b>The one that the people that it is for, we call them the</b>
234. 31:46<b>irregulars. Because I'm actually with you. I'm like, why</b> <b>would people come and watch this? And much less, why would</b>
235. 31:54<b>they come night after night after night after night? So</b> <b>about six months in or I don't know, four</b>
236. 32:00<b>months in when I started doing these lives.</b> <b>I just said out loud because it flummoxed me. You people</b>
237. 32:07<b>are fucking weirdos. And Emilio's wife, without a</b> <b>hesitation, said, we're not weird. We're irregular. So</b>
238. 32:16<b>they've been dubbed the irregulars. So why you would hang</b> <b>out here is if you're just left of center. All right. Was</b>
239. 32:24<b>this guy on the view? Is that a wait? Who's was Rosie</b> <b>O'Donnell on the view? I think</b> <b>that's a Rosie O'Donnell joke.</b>
240. 32:32<b>Yes. I haven't been called Rosie O'Donnell in six months.</b> <b>That's solid. That's solid. Rosie O'Donnell on a bad day.</b>
241. 32:42<b>Fat Alec Baldwin. You look like Tom Arnold is a good one.</b> <b>But the, were you on the view? That's a Rosie O'Donnell</b>
242. 32:50<b>joke. That's solid. That's really good. Eric Wilkinson. I'm</b> <b>crazy and a weirdo. New irregular here. Fantastic Eric.</b>
243. 32:59<b>Welcome. Welcome. Welcome. Welcome.</b> <b>Oh man. Well handled Kyle. That's how you keep such a</b>
244. 33:10<b>friendly tribe instead of a bunch of folks selling to each</b> <b>other. Yeah. Listen, here's the deal. I, the whole point of</b>
245. 33:22<b>this channel and the AI salon has always been just to</b> <b>demystify as much as I humanly can.</b>
246. 33:31<b>What's going on with AI and why you should pay attention to it. What we actually do here, what we actually do in the salon is evolving all the time. And like this is a TikTok channel. Like this is more in the neighborhood of entertainment. Well, small, small entertainment. This is hopefully an entertaining approach to education. One of the things that I learned from Cindy Kuhn is that I learned a lot about the way that I'm a</b>
247. 34:01<b>fan about, about this channel. It was so funny. This was</b> <b>like a year ago and Cindy Kuhn, she came, I forget what was</b>
248. 34:10<b>happening. Something was going on and a bunch of new people</b> <b>came in and got it. Bibi. I understood what that meant. A</b>
249. 34:22<b>bunch of new people came in and all of the irregulars</b> <b>started welcoming them in. And, and after that night, the</b>
250. 34:30<b>next day, Cindy Kuhn was going to be in the salon. And I was like,</b> <b>you know, what's going on? And she said, I'm gonna tell you</b>
251. 34:31<b>what I'm gonna tell you. She said, I'm gonna tell you what</b> <b>my experience was on the other side of the screen. And what</b>
252. 34:39<b>she said was she goes, do you know what this channel is?</b> <b>And I said, no, I don't. Like, I don't get it. And she</b>
253. 34:46<b>said, it's not about you. And I said, well, what do you</b> <b>mean? I said, first of all, everything's about me. So</b>
254. 34:54<b>you're wrong there. But let's we'll just, we'll move on</b> <b>from that point. She goes, it's not about you.</b>
255. 35:01<b>She goes, there is there is a whole community. There is a</b> <b>whole conversation and a whole collaboration going on with</b>
256. 35:10<b>people hanging out in the channel and hanging out in the</b> <b>comments and going to the A. I salon and participating in</b>
257. 35:15<b>the A. I salon all while while I'm talking all of this</b> <b>other stuff's going on. And that was such a revelation for</b>
258. 35:23<b>me that that the purpose of this why you hang out here is</b> <b>not for me. I'm not gonna teach you anything.</b>
259. 35:31<b>In fact, anyone that says they think you they can teach you</b> <b>anything right now, it's gonna at a minimum be short lived.</b>
260. 35:39<b>Why I'm excited about the A. I. Readiness course is that</b> <b>we're not teaching A. I. Tools. We're teaching A. I.</b>
261. 35:44<b>Readiness, which is about mindset.</b> <b>And so that's one of the things I thought I'd go over today</b>
262. 35:50<b>is just kind of a 10 point a 10 point thing that I did. You</b> <b>know, I actually created here on the channel last week.</b>
263. 36:01<b>But yeah, that's that's why you</b> <b>hang out here. So anyway, all right.</b>
264. 36:06<b>Got a nifty glass case with LED today. Today, today, today,</b> <b>today, agent readiness. Yeah, no</b>
265. 36:11<b>shit agent readiness. All right.</b> <b>Jason wants to check out Google whisk. I can I can go check</b>
266. 36:20<b>out Google whisk. What I can promise you is that I don't</b> <b>really know how to use it. So it may be awkward. Let me let</b>
267. 36:27<b>me show you a couple of things. Let's see.</b> <b>Yeah, yeah. Tell tell them how much money you're really</b>
268. 36:37<b>making. It's yeah. Yeah. This is even my ever since I've</b> <b>started streaming on YouTube and all these other things I</b>
269. 36:47<b>my tick tock revenues is essentially non existent. And</b> <b>before it was like it was OK, but it wasn't.</b>
270. 36:53<b>It was like if I if I did it on an hourly basis, I'm making</b> <b>about 50 cents an hour. I was now I'm</b>
271. 36:59<b>probably making about a nickel an hour.</b> <b>Because I know how to make good life choices.</b>
272. 37:10<b>All right. Charles Adams, it's the Kyle mindset I'm here</b> <b>for. I'm really sorry for you. If the Kyle</b>
273. 37:18<b>mindset is what you're looking for. Oh, man.</b> <b>Self-deprecating humor. It's where we go. It's where we go.</b>
274. 37:25<b>Shame is my love language, you know.</b> <b>OK, let's do this. Let me get the black bar up there.</b>
275. 37:38<b>I want to talk about the Sam Altman.</b> <b>The Sam Altman letter blog. So let's see.</b>
276. 37:51<b>I think if we go to open ai.com slash blog.</b> <b>Today today today.</b> <b>Overview.</b>
277. 38:07<b>Let's see. That's news. Let's go Sam Altman.</b> <b>New Year's.</b> <b>Blog.</b>
278. 38:20<b>Reflections here we go. Blog.SamAltman.com. So it's pretty</b> <b>long. And I've ADHD. So one of the</b>
279. 38:31<b>things that I did was I went to chat Jepe.</b> <b>I have too many tabs open. I don't know if you notice this,</b>
280. 38:39<b>but I'm a tab hoarder and I'm a proud tab hoarder. If if if</b> <b>you're sitting there thinking.</b>
281. 38:48<b>You know, you probably shouldn't.</b> <b>Hord your tabs.</b> <b>Because it's bad for your memory.</b>
282. 38:56<b>You're right. Where I now I've lost my.</b> <b>Lost.</b> <b>I had it all teed up and ready to go. Where did it go? I</b>
283. 39:07<b>lost it. Well, I guess we're going</b> <b>back and starting over. Maybe it was here.</b> <b>Welcome to chat ADD. But at a</b>
284. 39:16<b>little bit better. All right. Yeah. OK.</b> <b>OK, here we go.</b> <b>So in in Sam's little New Year's New Year's missive there</b>
285. 39:28<b>there were the top three here I think are the most important ones.</b> <b>So one of the things Sam said is that.</b>
286. 39:37<b>In 2025, this is the year we're in right now. We're going</b> <b>to have AI agents that might join the workforce.</b>
287. 39:48<b>So you know how you know how in the company you work for</b> <b>they might use Slack or whatever and you've got remote</b>
288. 39:55<b>employees and you go in there and your remote employees are</b> <b>doing shit and you've checked out.</b>
289. 40:00<b>You know, you know, you've got a lot of people that are going to check in on Slack. Well, imagine a bunch of new</b>
290. 40:03<b>employees that are not people, but they're running the</b> <b>business that that we're going to see in 2025 now.</b>
291. 40:11<b>Is there going to be one agent or they're going to be a</b> <b>thousand agents? I don't know that I don't know.</b>
292. 40:21<b>You know, it says this suggests that open AI is confident</b> <b>that key elements of AGI or at least advanced AI systems</b>
293. 40:27<b>will be operational and impactful within two years.</b> <b>So we will likely start to see in</b> <b>2025 these things showing up now.</b>
294. 40:41<b>Week and a half ago, someone came in here. It was all was</b> <b>all salty and was like custom</b>
295. 40:46<b>GPTs are worthless pieces of shit.</b> <b>Well, first of all, I want to join the tab orders club.</b>
296. 40:54<b>It's a listen being a tab hoarder. It's a very exclusive</b> <b>club. It's not for the faint of heart.</b>
297. 41:02<b>I also don't restart my Mac.</b> <b>Unless I have to. I don't shut down my computer every day.</b>
298. 41:11<b>I'm it is for people that know anything about computers.</b> <b>And browsers and software and how memory works.</b>
299. 41:22<b>I am the edge case. So if you want to join the club, just</b> <b>know it's brutal. It's brutal up here because you'll be in</b>
300. 41:29<b>the middle of a pitch to a major client and all of a sudden</b> <b>everything just locks up. That</b>
301. 41:35<b>is 1000% my fault. No, that is.</b> <b>That is.</b> <b>12% my fault and 88% Google not fixing the fucking memory</b>
302. 41:46<b>leaks in in Chrome, but but you know that notwithstanding.</b> <b>OK, so agents are coming. The other thing Altman said.</b>
303. 41:58<b>Is that they now know within it open AI</b> <b>how to get to AGI with current techniques.</b>
304. 42:07<b>He said he believes it open AI knows how to build AGI as</b> <b>traditionally understood. So remember their five levels of</b>
305. 42:16<b>AGI while no specific timeline is given the statement</b> <b>implies that AGI development is no longer</b>
306. 42:22<b>theoretical but tangible active pursuit.</b> <b>One of the other things that you'll see you've seen if</b>
307. 42:29<b>you're on X it's if you if you're not on X, you know, for</b> <b>for whatever reasons, because it's full of tech bros and</b>
308. 42:37<b>douchebags. I don't disagree with you.</b> <b>You can alter your experience pretty dramatically based on</b>
309. 42:43<b>who you follow. So if you start to follow people that you</b>
310. 42:46<b>like and have integrity, it can be it can actually be a really good experience.</b>
311. 42:48<b>A lot of the open AI developers are posting on X that</b> <b>pretty much the conversation has shifted at open AI from</b>
312. 43:00<b>AGI to ASI, which I'll talk about in a second. My GPTs are</b> <b>my assistance. So here's what I want to say about custom</b>
313. 43:07<b>GPTs one. They're actually useful.</b> <b>There was absolutely a letdown with custom GPTs because Sam</b>
314. 43:17<b>kind of promised this thing called the the GPT store where</b> <b>you're going to be able to sell them and monetize them. And</b>
315. 43:22<b>when that went away, I think a lot of people just kind of,</b> <b>you know, let them drift to the wayside. They are quite</b>
316. 43:27<b>powerful. And there's there's you can do these sort of</b>
317. 43:30<b>things within Claude. You can do them within Poe. You can do them within perplexity's got a version of this.</b>
318. 43:36<b>But but here's the thing. I think that the skill of</b> <b>creating a custom GPT is is going to serve you very, very</b>
319. 43:47<b>well when it comes to setting up agents. Because if you think about what agents are agents are something that's going to take some set of actions. On your behalf and go out into the world and do stuff. Well, you have to do that.</b>
320. 43:51<b>Because if you think about what agents are agents are</b> <b>something that's going to take some set of actions. On your</b>
321. 43:59<b>behalf and go out into the world and do stuff. Well, you</b> <b>have to decide what do you want it to do? And what kind of</b>
322. 44:05<b>actions can it take? And you're probably gonna have to</b> <b>configure some things, right? Just like you do in a custom</b>
323. 44:09<b>GPT. So all of you that learned how to make custom GPTs,</b> <b>that's probably time well spent is my guess. We'll see.</b>
324. 44:18<b>Okay, Kyle is chat GPT 01 reasoning model</b> <b>part of AI level two? Interesting question.</b>
325. 44:26<b>Yes, it is. So 0101 and 03 are level two, right? So so open</b>
326. 44:40<b>AI has five levels of AGI. The bottom level is chat bots,</b> <b>right? The ability chat GPT the the ability to interact</b>
327. 44:47<b>with an AI kind of system is level one. That's that they</b> <b>gave us on November 20th 2022. The next level is the GPT.</b>
328. 44:54<b>The next level up is reasoning. The 01 model and the 03</b> <b>model are reasoning engines. The 03 model that we none of</b>
329. 45:03<b>us have access to yet or you</b> <b>know, a handful of us do I don't</b>
330. 45:07<b>know, in its most expensive configuration, which is like, I</b> <b>don't know, what was it like $5,000 per query? The one that</b>
331. 45:20<b>beat the AGI benchmark test?</b> <b>That has an IQ right now of 157.</b> <b>So if you look at how these models have improved over the</b>
332. 45:32<b>years, they've essentially 10 X every year for two years.</b> <b>So assuming it stays on that trajectory, you know, that</b>
333. 45:39<b>thing's going to get cheap. And we're probably going to go</b> <b>from, you know, an IQ of 157. Einstein was somewhere</b>
334. 45:46<b>between 160 and 190 is the estimate of Einstein.</b> <b>We now have tools in our hands or very close to it that are</b>
335. 45:55<b>Einstein level smart. And then level three is agents. Level</b> <b>three AGI is agents. So that we're going to have in 2025.</b>
336. 46:05<b>Level four is innovators or inventors. So you take these</b> <b>bottom three, the ability to chat with it, reasoning plus</b>
337. 46:12<b>agentic behavior, you roll those together and you can start</b> <b>to put together what they're</b>
338. 46:16<b>calling inventors or innovators.</b> <b>And then the fifth level of AGI is what they call</b>
339. 46:21<b>organizations. You could say start me a company on X and it</b> <b>will spin up 1000 different workers and go out and do shit</b>
340. 46:30<b>for you at, at, you know, genius level execution on all</b> <b>jobs. That's where we're headed. Like, within, I don't</b>
341. 46:41<b>know, three years, five years</b> <b>tops, if you're Gary Marcus 10 years.</b>
342. 46:48<b>But I think it's going to be closer to three new TikTok</b> <b>pin. Have you tried cursor? So there's, there are</b>
343. 46:56<b>three players right now in the, well, I mean, there's more</b> <b>than three. There's, there's three that I'm paying</b>
344. 47:02<b>attention to get up co-pilot. I feel like everyone was</b> <b>excited about that. Then cursor came along and just ate</b>
345. 47:10<b>their lunch. So cursor is an automatic coding environment.</b> <b>It, it's very, very good from what I understand. To use</b>
346. 47:19<b>cursor, you still need to understand development. You still</b> <b>need to understand how to set up databases and how to set</b>
347. 47:25<b>up, you know, web front ends and web</b> <b>back ends and all that sort of shit.</b>
348. 47:31<b>I'm not great at that stuff. So I still find cursor</b> <b>intimidating. Now they have been building plugins for</b>
349. 47:37<b>cursor that it's now, they're now putting IDs and front</b> <b>ends, you know, built into it.</b>
350. 47:43<b>But the two that, that I've used that are really promising,</b> <b>one of them is Replit agent and Replit agent will spin up</b>
351. 47:50<b>its own database and will spin up its own</b> <b>backend and front end. It's pretty good.</b>
352. 47:54<b>And then the other one that I just love is lovable.dev. L O</b> <b>V A B L E. Dev. And because it's lovable, make sure you go</b>
353. 48:04<b>to.dev because I think all the other</b> <b>domain names are like sexy. They're sexy sites.</b>
354. 48:10<b>So you got to be careful of that one. But lovable creates</b> <b>web applications and I created this application.</b>
355. 48:23<b>This was the very first application I created in lovable.</b> <b>Um, zero coding, zero anything other than like make these</b>
356. 48:35<b>corners tighter, um, color code the sections, make it so</b> <b>that I can click on the sections</b>
357. 48:42<b>and it automatically filters the news.</b> <b>If I click on the news, show</b> <b>me the description of the news.</b>
358. 48:48<b>If I click on the title of the</b> <b>news, take me to that actual article.</b> <b>Um,</b>
359. 48:54<b>instead of using an API that costs money, let's scrape RSS</b> <b>feeds. And then I gave it, I said, find me 15 RSS feeds</b>
360. 49:02<b>that might be good for AI news. And it went, went out and</b> <b>found all these. And then I said, make a, make a tool tip</b>
361. 49:08<b>rollover, you know, and call it AI</b> <b>salon news-o-matic because I'm an idiot.</b>
362. 49:14<b>And then make it so that someone can grab an embed code,</b> <b>embed this in their website, uh, make it so that it can</b>
363. 49:19<b>refresh this. Like you, you literally just tell it, go do</b> <b>shit for me. And it goes and does it for you.</b>
364. 49:26<b>Like no coding. Look at the, look at the interface where</b> <b>it's like scrolling behind those buttons. Amazing. Thanks</b>
365. 49:32<b>for the suggestion. I'll try them. Yeah,</b> <b>yeah, yeah. Yeah. Go, go play with those.</b>
366. 49:36<b>Replit agent and lovable. I'd start with lovable just</b> <b>because even if, if you're not a developer at all, like I</b>
367. 49:44<b>am sort of a developer where I know how to code and I know</b> <b>what developers do, but the minute I have</b>
368. 49:51<b>to go in and actually do it, it ain't me.</b> <b>It's, I just don't have the skills for it. I don't have the</b>
369. 49:56<b>attention span for it. I don't have the attention to detail</b> <b>for it, but I'm good at a, at a high level to say, Ooh, I</b>
370. 50:02<b>wanted to do this. I wanted to</b> <b>do that. I wanted to do that.</b> <b>That's what we all get to be in the future, right? We all</b>
371. 50:07<b>get to be like conductors, producers. Ooh, I have an idea</b> <b>for an app. Wouldn't it be cool? You know how you, you know</b>
372. 50:14<b>how you're out with someone in a diner?</b> <b>I forget this. There's some comedian has a whole routine on</b>
373. 50:20<b>this. I think it's Bill Burr. Yeah. Bill Burr talks about,</b> <b>he's got a cousin. It's like, I got an idea for an app. And</b>
374. 50:27<b>he goes, he calls himself an</b> <b>inventor because he has an idea for an app.</b> <b>He's like, you're not an inventor</b>
375. 50:32<b>until you build the fucking app.</b> <b>We are now like within spitting distance. And if you use</b>
376. 50:39<b>lovable, you can go do this right now.</b> <b>In lovable, you can have a shitty idea for a shitty app and</b>
377. 50:48<b>build it within an hour or less, like depending on how,</b> <b>like this, this took me, I</b> <b>think it was two and a half hours.</b>
378. 50:57<b>And the bulk, the bulk of the time was getting it to look</b> <b>less shitty. Like the basic</b>
379. 51:05<b>functionality, it nailed within the first 45 minutes.</b> <b>And it was just amazing. And like when I'm adding filtering</b>
380. 51:11<b>and sorting and just amazing. So anyway, all right. I have</b> <b>broken both apps I was building with lovable, but I feel</b>
381. 51:20<b>like it's all part of the learning process. It is.</b> <b>It's all part hint. Add email auth login before you do</b>
382. 51:30<b>anything else. Oh, that's that's great, Eric Wilkerson. So</b> <b>so what what you will find in</b>
383. 51:38<b>when you start doing these apps is</b> <b>order of operations is really important. Sometimes you'll</b>
384. 51:45<b>want to add something that seems really simple and it just</b> <b>fucks it up. It just it cannot figure</b>
385. 51:51<b>it out for some reason. And things like</b> <b>authorization start with that if you want it to be</b> <b>sophisticated. But the other</b>
386. 51:59<b>thing that I would say, Eric, is</b> <b>a silver fox. Oh, by the way, I want to I want to thank</b>
387. 52:05<b>silver fox silver foxes on the is on the channel. Silver</b> <b>Fox was a mod in TikTok and in</b>
388. 52:11<b>YouTube for a huge amount of time.</b> <b>And she's stepping away from that. So silver fox, thank you</b>
389. 52:17<b>for everything you've done to support me and the channel</b> <b>and just, you know, make everyone's life in here so much</b>
390. 52:24<b>better. So thank you for that.</b> <b>One of the things I would encourage you to do with these</b>
391. 52:29<b>kind of apps is and I did this within replet.</b> <b>Is if you if you if you code yourself into a corner and</b>
392. 52:38<b>you're spending an inordinate amount of</b> <b>time trying to fix a bug, it just won't.</b>
393. 52:43<b>You just can't fix it and you're not a coder and you don't</b> <b>feel like going in and dealing with the code or you can't</b>
394. 52:48<b>just start over, just throw it out and say, OK, I learned</b> <b>that one and then try things in a different order and like</b>
395. 52:54<b>do you know, do things that you would</b> <b>have done in that one in the new one.</b>
396. 52:59<b>On replet, I've got an app that I started called Memory</b> <b>Mapper where you you put memories on a map. Hence the name.</b>
397. 53:11<b>And I've probably got 10 different versions of that, all of</b> <b>which have different bugs and weirdness and things like I</b>
398. 53:18<b>haven't gotten that one to the point</b> <b>that I want to put it out in the world yet.</b>
399. 53:22<b>But just like all of this stuff, here's here's the deal.</b> <b>With these coding apps, if you talk to the engineers,</b>
400. 53:32<b>you'll get an earful now, they're all smart engineers are</b> <b>learning the shit out of these tools and they're using</b>
401. 53:40<b>cursor and they're accelerating what they do.</b> <b>But to a person, if you talk to Pate Modern here, if you</b>
402. 53:45<b>talk to real developers, these automated coding tools are</b> <b>incredibly frustrating because, like with everything in AI,</b>
403. 53:54<b>getting to 80 percent is easy, getting to 90 percent is</b> <b>hard, getting to 95 percent is almost impossible.</b>
404. 54:00<b>And that last five percent, like if you don't know how to</b> <b>fix shit and duct tape it</b>
405. 54:06<b>together, you're on your own, right?</b> <b>Like you're just not going to get there.</b> <b>That's not going to be true for long.</b>
406. 54:15<b>It's not going to be true for long.</b> <b>These tools, the underlying models are getting better and</b>
407. 54:20<b>better and better and better and better.</b> <b>So learn them when they're shitty.</b>
408. 54:26<b>Because if you can start to wrangle these things when</b> <b>they're shitty, the minute they get</b>
409. 54:30<b>slightly better, you're going to be a master at it.</b> <b>And for the rest of the world that's not paying attention</b>
410. 54:36<b>to this shit, you're going to appear like a fucking wizard.</b> <b>Right?</b> <b>The most important thing is understand who</b>
411. 54:45<b>you are and what you're trying to accomplish.</b> <b>Right?</b> <b>That's the that's the world we're moving</b>
412. 54:50<b>into that I think work starts to look like.</b> <b>We all get to be Rick Rubin to some degree, right?</b>
413. 54:57<b>Who's this famous music producer that doesn't write songs,</b> <b>can't sing, can't work the computer.</b>
414. 55:04<b>But people hire him because he's got a good point of view.</b> <b>He knows what he likes and what he</b>
415. 55:08<b>doesn't and he's not afraid to say it.</b> <b>That becomes our role when these tools get good enough that</b>
416. 55:14<b>we can just ask it for what we want.</b> <b>So start thinking about what you want.</b> <b>All right.</b>
417. 55:19<b>Eric Wilkerson, my second lesson.</b> <b>Was learn what APIs you might want to use until lovable so</b>
418. 55:29<b>it doesn't make the wrong or high cost decision for you.</b> <b>Another great that this is great advice, Eric.</b>
419. 55:36<b>So if you don't know what an API is, an API is an</b> <b>application programming interface.</b> <b>Some of them cost money.</b>
420. 55:44<b>Some of them are free.</b> <b>Some of them are really good.</b> <b>Some of them are really bad.</b>
421. 55:49<b>What an API is is here's a simple example.</b> <b>So I created this mapping application, right?</b>
422. 55:57<b>And I wanted to be able to place pins on a map.</b> <b>Well, I could write if I had the skills, I could write a</b>
423. 56:07<b>map application that would actually draw the map and I</b> <b>could launch my own satellites</b> <b>and go get my own mapping data.</b>
424. 56:15<b>Right.</b> <b>Or I could use open source stuff or I could just go to</b> <b>Google and say, hey, do you</b>
425. 56:20<b>have an API for your mapping thing?</b> <b>And they do.</b> <b>And then you get what's called a key.</b> <b>So you get an API key.</b>
426. 56:29<b>And if the service costs money, every time someone uses</b> <b>that API, it costs you a tenth</b> <b>of a penny or whatever it is.</b>
427. 56:35<b>Or if it's free, they just use it.</b> <b>But once you have that API key, then your application like</b>
428. 56:40<b>this thing, if I were using an API, it would pull the data</b> <b>for all these new sources from that API from the</b>
429. 56:47<b>application programming interface.</b> <b>All right.</b> <b>Silver Fox.</b>
430. 56:52<b>What I'm going to say is can you you can check out any time</b> <b>you want, but you can never leave.</b>
431. 56:57<b>Yes, the learning lab is the Hotel California.</b> <b>Fantastic.</b> <b>All right.</b> <b>Did you do all right?</b>
432. 57:12<b>Let me show you one other thing here.</b> <b>So, yeah.</b> <b>So this.</b> <b>This little list.</b>
433. 57:23<b>And I'm going to get out of here because I'm starting.</b> <b>I can feel myself flop sweating a little bit.</b>
434. 57:27<b>So self storage show Jim Ross.</b> <b>I'm creating a self storage business audit app right now.</b> <b>Unlovable.</b> <b>Look, OK.</b>
435. 57:35<b>Dang it, Jim.</b> <b>You're so good at this stuff.</b> <b>OK, if you don't know Jim Ross, go</b>
436. 57:41<b>check out three mile storage dot com.</b> <b>That's right.</b> <b>Right.</b> <b>Three mile storage.</b>
437. 57:45<b>Let's give you a little ad.</b> <b>Here we are in the learning lab.</b> <b>Three mile storage dot com.</b> <b>Yeah, go there.</b>
438. 57:55<b>This isn't computer storage.</b> <b>This is like storage units.</b> <b>So Jim's business is helping</b>
439. 58:01<b>people manage storage properties.</b> <b>And Jim, more than anyone I know, has adopted an A.I.</b>
440. 58:10<b>first mindset where he does it like a</b> <b>practice like a like a Buddha, like a Buddha.</b>
441. 58:15<b>Jim Ross is the Buddha of A.I. adoption into his business.</b> <b>He's a one man operation that actually</b>
442. 58:22<b>functions like a 10 person operation.</b> <b>Every day he starts out with a 60 minute timer.</b> <b>I guess while he's having his</b>
443. 58:29<b>coffee, turns on a 60 minute timer</b> <b>and he just figures out what can I do with A.I. today.</b>
444. 58:35<b>So what Jim's working on right now, I</b> <b>am creating a self storage business audit</b>
445. 58:39<b>app right now, unlovable to bring awareness to my company.</b> <b>Right.</b> <b>So someone's got a business,</b>
446. 58:47<b>you know, a storage business and</b> <b>instead of Jim saying, hey, hire me</b> <b>and, you know, I'll help you audit,</b>
447. 58:54<b>you know, and figure out where there's</b> <b>opportunities for you to make more money.</b>
448. 58:58<b>Well, now he's just going to build that application.</b> <b>He's going to put it out there.</b> <b>He's going to put his logo on it</b>
449. 59:02<b>and say, hey, here's this thing</b> <b>that can help you do that once</b> <b>you use this tool and figure out</b>
450. 59:08<b>that your business is fucked.</b> <b>Call me like it's just a completely</b> <b>different way to think about business.</b>
451. 59:14<b>All right.</b> <b>Pin for Jim.</b> <b>What happened to the mascot?</b> <b>Oh, yeah, Jim, what happened to the mascot?</b>
452. 59:24<b>I think after the mascot fiasco.</b> <b>Well, actually someone made a good I</b> <b>think it was Steve O made a really good</b>
453. 59:32<b>mascot, but I think Jim had</b> <b>done something like that before.</b> <b>So I don't know.</b> <b>Look, DK DQ Blizzard one Jim</b>
454. 59:39<b>Ross, I might be calling you soon.</b> <b>There you go.</b> <b>This is so look again, this channel isn't about me.</b>
455. 59:47<b>It's about what we're all doing together.</b> <b>All right.</b> <b>Mr.</b> <b>Studio Kyle this weekend, I taught myself</b>
456. 59:53<b>how to build my own AI reasoning models.</b> <b>Good Lord for the classroom.</b> <b>There you go.</b>
457. 1:00:01<b>That sounds intimidating to me, but</b> <b>that's the, that's the deal with this AI stuff</b>
458. 1:00:06<b>right now is every little rabbit hole you</b> <b>run down, what you discover is there are</b> <b>tools out there that you can do</b>
459. 1:00:13<b>way more than you thought possible.</b> <b>So 10 steps to AI readiness.</b> <b>This is what these 10 steps were pulled</b>
460. 1:00:23<b>from is we took the transcripts of the 23</b> <b>different sessions we had for AI Festivus.</b>
461. 1:00:30<b>Then I just had, it was notebook LM.</b> <b>Um, I just had notebook LM give me</b> <b>the top 10 steps that, that, you know,</b>
462. 1:00:39<b>derived from the content of all of those</b> <b>sessions that would make someone ready for</b> <b>AI.</b> <b>And so here they are.</b>
463. 1:00:48<b>Start with the problem, not the tool.</b> <b>So this is right.</b> <b>The reason I have this gold button is</b>
464. 1:00:58<b>that for the longest time, TikTok was full of</b> <b>these people saying, that's upside down.</b>
465. 1:01:08<b>You don't make money with chat GPT.</b> <b>You use chat GPT to solve a problem</b> <b>that someone's willing to pay for.</b>
466. 1:01:17<b>Start with a problem, not a tool.</b> <b>Um, embrace the beginner's mindset.</b> <b>Basically, just be curious.</b> <b>Be curious.</b>
467. 1:01:29<b>Just, just like Eric Wilkerson was like,</b> <b>I think I broke this a couple of times.</b>
468. 1:01:33<b>And I figured out, start with, with, uh, if you're going to</b> <b>do email authorization, start</b>
469. 1:01:38<b>with that, because it fucks it up.</b> <b>If you built the app and then try to add it later.</b> <b>Great.</b> <b>Perfect.</b>
470. 1:01:43<b>Awesome.</b> <b>Like that's a beginner's mindset is, is not getting stuck</b> <b>with, well, I told it to do it.</b>
471. 1:01:51<b>And again, it failed.</b> <b>So therefore AI sucks, right?</b> <b>There's, there's a lot of that going on right now.</b>
472. 1:01:56<b>There's a lot of, um, doomerism</b> <b>around AI because it's not perfect.</b> <b>But it's going to get better so quickly.</b>
473. 1:02:07<b>And I mean, it has, it's been getting better so quickly.</b> <b>Those people that are sitting on the sidelines with their</b>
474. 1:02:12<b>little soap boxes, talking about</b> <b>how shitty AI is, they're about</b> <b>to have their asses handed to them.</b>
475. 1:02:19<b>Um, just start using it and brain dump.</b> <b>I love this, this advice.</b> <b>This is one of the things that if you know</b>
476. 1:02:29<b>anything about computers and how they work</b> <b>and how having dirty data sources was</b>
477. 1:02:35<b>always the bane of everyone's existence, right?</b> <b>You can have a database full of, um, full of data.</b>
478. 1:02:45<b>But if, if your addresses were not formatted consistently,</b> <b>it would, it would break everything.</b> <b>Right?</b>
479. 1:02:51<b>No longer.</b> <b>You can literally just vomit unstructured data,</b> <b>unstructured notes into these tools.</b>
480. 1:02:58<b>And they do really well.</b> <b>A shoe.</b> <b>My brain is on the fence with AI so</b> <b>much beyond, beyond funny chat bots.</b>
481. 1:03:07<b>I know exactly.</b> <b>I mean, AI right now is not perfect, but it's like, this,</b>
482. 1:03:13<b>this goes back to the thing that, that I, I coined the</b> <b>phrase maybe a year ago, embrace the jank.</b>
483. 1:03:19<b>Just have fun with it.</b> <b>Just be, be playful with it and recognize it's going to be</b> <b>a piece of shit until it's not.</b>
484. 1:03:29<b>But if you're the one that's there, when it gets better,</b> <b>you'll know what to do with it.</b> <b>All right.</b>
485. 1:03:36<b>Um, focus on practical quick wins.</b> <b>I love that one.</b> <b>Just do something.</b> <b>All right.</b>
486. 1:03:44<b>Uh, use free AI tools to get started.</b> <b>Almost all of the AI tools with the exception of the video</b>
487. 1:03:49<b>tools have free versions and some of the video tools, like</b> <b>over the holidays, they gave you</b>
488. 1:03:56<b>like the whole holiday to do free.</b> <b>Free action.</b> <b>So just, you know, apply for the</b>
489. 1:04:01<b>creative partner programs, things like that.</b> <b>Um, leverage AI to enhance your zones, zone of genius.</b>
490. 1:04:09<b>This one for me is what 2025 is about.</b> <b>You've got to figure out what is your zone of genius?</b>
491. 1:04:17<b>What are you passionate about?</b> <b>What are you good at?</b> <b>Where, where do you have good judgment and good taste?</b>
492. 1:04:23<b>Where do you have good knowledge?</b> <b>Because you're going to be able to use some collection of</b>
493. 1:04:29<b>AI tools better than other people</b> <b>that don't have that same zone of genius.</b> <b>This is not about the tools.</b>
494. 1:04:36<b>Assume the tools will be good enough</b> <b>and assume you can learn the tools.</b> <b>And be playing with them.</b>
495. 1:04:44<b>But the real work in 2025 is</b> <b>figuring out who you are and what you want.</b> <b>Okay.</b>
496. 1:04:51<b>Um, be aware of data privacy and security.</b> <b>Know that anything you're putting into these things may end</b>
497. 1:04:57<b>up in these things out in the world.</b> <b>So just be careful with that.</b> <b>Build your AI intuition.</b>
498. 1:05:03<b>The AI intuition thing is kind of what Eric was talking</b> <b>about here, where it's like, go in, start to use it.</b>
499. 1:05:10<b>If it fucks up, go, let me try another angle.</b> <b>Like just be, be adaptable.</b> <b>I think, excuse me.</b>
500. 1:05:18<b>I think adaptability is going to be one</b> <b>of those skills kind of moving forward.</b>
501. 1:05:22<b>Critical thinking and adaptability and curiosity.</b> <b>That, that little triumvirate.</b> <b>Curiosity, adaptability.</b>
502. 1:05:31<b>What did I say?</b> <b>I don't know.</b> <b>My brain's foggy.</b> <b>Just be more fluid with how you interact with these tools.</b>
503. 1:05:41<b>Build community or join community.</b> <b>One of the things we talk about in AI Salon, the path to AI</b>
504. 1:05:47<b>readiness is play first, mindfully create.</b> <b>So play to learn the tools.</b> <b>Mindfully create, build some</b>
505. 1:05:54<b>quick wins, and then generously lead.</b> <b>And what that looks like is be in community.</b> <b>Learn out loud.</b>
506. 1:06:02<b>Tell people what you're learning.</b> <b>And then the final one, Adnan and Brian, who wrote a book</b>
507. 1:06:12<b>that is now talking about the adaptability quotient and the</b> <b>emotional quotient are going to be happy with this.</b>
508. 1:06:18<b>But, but understand that AI is going to precipitate massive</b> <b>changes and your ability to engage with other people and to</b>
509. 1:06:30<b>adapt to these changes are going to be your superpower.</b> <b>All right.</b>
510. 1:06:35<b>If you want to find this article, just go to my account.</b> <b>It's at Kyle Shannon and look at my</b>
511. 1:06:41<b>posts and it's 10 steps to AI readiness.</b> <b>And there's a little raccoon.</b> <b>I put that in there for Cindy Kuhn.</b>
512. 1:06:46<b>All right.</b> <b>And why is the sign all rusty?</b> <b>I don't know.</b> <b>Cause I thought that would be cool.</b> <b>All right.</b>
513. 1:06:54<b>I got to get out of here.</b> <b>I got to get out of here.</b> <b>Paper.</b> <b>Okay.</b>
514. 1:06:57<b>So tomorrow is the first AI Salon of the year.</b> <b>It's at 5 PM mountain time and</b> <b>we, we have a wonderful speaker.</b>
515. 1:07:10<b>So if you want to join the AI Salon, go to thesalon.ai.</b> <b>Hang on.</b> <b>Let me pop up that graphic.</b>
516. 1:07:21<b>Go to thesalon.ai, click on join the community.</b> <b>And then there's sort of seven get started steps.</b>
517. 1:07:27<b>And one of them is RSVP to our events.</b> <b>So join the community RSVP to the event tomorrow.</b>
518. 1:07:36<b>AI Salon events are really good.</b> <b>They're really, they can be very, very inspiring.</b>
519. 1:07:41<b>We'll talk about a lot of different stuff.</b> <b>We have a beautiful speaker tomorrow.</b> <b>So, so come join that.</b>
520. 1:07:49<b>That likely means that this meeting</b> <b>tomorrow night or this channel tomorrow</b> <b>night, we'll start eight 30 or nine</b>
521. 1:07:55<b>mountain instead of eight mountain.</b> <b>Like we normally do.</b> <b>Okay.</b> <b>Here's the other thing that my request for you.</b>
522. 1:08:06<b>If you subscribe to the YouTube</b> <b>channel, just go hit play on site.</b> <b>I don't care if you watch them.</b>
523. 1:08:14<b>If you count, if you want to watch</b> <b>them, there's going to be awesome stuff in</b>
524. 1:08:18<b>there, like singing dogs and me acting like an idiot.</b> <b>And probably other stuff too.</b>
525. 1:08:24<b>But we need to get our, our viewing time up.</b> <b>So if you could just go hit play on a</b> <b>couple of videos and then, you know,</b>
526. 1:08:30<b>mute your computer and go to bed, that'd be swell.</b> <b>All right, everybody.</b> <b>Hope you had a good time tonight.</b>
527. 1:08:38<b>Anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody, anybody,</b>
528. 1:08:38<b>any final comments before I get my ass out of here?</b> <b>Oh, also go to, are you ready</b> <b>for, are you ready for AI.com?</b>
529. 1:08:52<b>Are you ready for AI.com?</b> <b>And that's the AI readiness</b> <b>course that we're putting together.</b>
530. 1:08:57<b>And Murphy and Vicki Baptiste and I</b> <b>are putting together, uh, to, to get you</b> <b>up to speed on this stuff.</b>
531. 1:09:04<b>All right.</b> <b>Are you ready for AI?</b> <b>I, whatever on the screen right</b> <b>there, what it says right there.</b> <b>See?</b>
532. 1:09:13<b>Yeah, you did it.</b> <b>Yeah.</b> <b>Oh, nice.</b> <b>Daisy, may I watch replays on the weekends?</b> <b>Beautiful.</b>
533. 1:09:22<b>Love that.</b> <b>Great.</b> <b>Are you kidding me?</b> <b>Code in plain English.</b> <b>That's, that's where we are.</b>
534. 1:09:30<b>If you haven't played with these</b> <b>tools yet, lovable.dev is using your</b> <b>words as a programming language.</b>
535. 1:09:40<b>I want an app that does this.</b> <b>There it is.</b> <b>That's the world we live in now.</b>
536. 1:09:46<b>And it's not just going to be coding.</b> <b>It's it's, it's video, it's</b> <b>audio, it's songs, it's sound effects.</b>
537. 1:09:54<b>It's cookbooks.</b> <b>It's children's books.</b> <b>It's we're, we're in a staggering new paradigm.</b>
538. 1:10:02<b>Like this is the paradigm shift</b> <b>bullshit is way overused, but, but our</b> <b>paradigm is about to get rocked.</b>
539. 1:10:11<b>Eric Wilkerson, I'll be at my day job tomorrow.</b> <b>I have to catch the replay.</b> <b>All right.</b> <b>Welcome.</b>
