0:00 mode. Um, which song do we want to sing
0:03 for the people?
0:09 [Music]
0:15 [Music]
0:23 Um, my seem to be wanting to see
0:28 [Music]
0:39 in a westerly
0:43 direction. This car is my
0:47 [Music]
0:49 train. I've been driving. I've been
0:53 wondering what it is I'm running from
0:56 again.
0:59 Feel like an 80y old
1:03 man hold on and on to
1:07 29 up ahead on that
1:12 horizon is California
1:15 [Music]
1:18 [Applause]
1:22 line up ahead of trucks carrying a wide
1:25 load.
1:27 Preab house cut in
1:31 half. Cute little front door and two
1:34 windows. My
1:35 lord ain't sure whether to cry or
1:39 [Music]
1:42 laugh. You see, I broke a home up myself
1:45 once.
1:47 As I stumbled to that
1:51 door, I read a note by the dawn
1:55 light said, "Don't you come around
2:00 here
2:03 anymore." Well, I've had
2:07 enough of this freedom all
2:11 around. Never was good with
2:14 [Music]
2:15 decisions. At least that's what I've
2:17 been told.
2:21 [Music]
2:30 Good evening, good people of the Tik Tok
2:33 and the YouTube and the X and the
2:37 Twitter and the LinkedIn and any of the
2:40 social networks where you may be finding
2:43 this luscious, luscious
2:47 content. This is what you would call a
2:49 media operation.
2:52 Uh, I'm what you would call talent on
2:55 the media
2:58 operation. And
3:01 uh, it's Thursday night. It's April
3:05 3rd. The world, the stock market
3:09 exploded today. People are losing their
3:11 [ __ ]
3:12 [Music]
3:14 minds. I saw I saw a really funny Tik
3:17 Tok today. It was just like it it it
3:21 encapsulated how I am just basically
3:25 like someone said some really bad news
3:27 to some woman about what was going on
3:29 and she's like uh he's like no reaction
3:33 and she's like no I've disassociated I'm
3:36 just watching it
3:37 [Laughter]
3:38 [Music]
3:46 now. You're not. What am I
3:51 not? It's Friday
3:55 [Music]
3:57 Eve. No, it's Thursday
4:00 Eve. Oh, you're a
4:02 [Laughter]
4:11 riot. You're a riot. Thank you.
4:16 Thursday is Friday
4:18 Eve. Did I say it was
4:21 [Music]
4:26 Friday? It's the new glasses. It
4:28 actually is the new glasses. I'll tell
4:30 you why. If I look at this screen, which
4:33 is where I share my
4:35 [ __ ] I can see if I look over there,
4:39 which is the where I see the YouTube
4:41 comments and the LinkedIn comments, it's
4:44 just beyond the focal length of these
4:46 glasses. And so it's just all blurry. So
4:49 if you see me like leaning off screen
4:51 like this, it's so I can read things
4:53 like you're a riot instead of you're rot
4:56 or you're a knot or whatever I thought
4:58 it said.
5:00 Wait. Okay. Thanks, Kyle. I got that
5:02 prompt to work. Oh, awesome. Steo. So,
5:05 Steo was part of an experiment today.
5:07 Leah Fasten and I on the uh on the uh AI
5:13 Salon they call it. Um we
5:16 experimented for the first time with
5:19 going live within mighty networks within
5:21 the mighty within the AI salon community
5:23 site.
5:25 um because we'd talked about it for a
5:26 while, but we were at a subscription
5:28 level where you only had 20 hours a
5:30 month that you could go live. And so
5:33 like if I was going to go live within
5:35 it, I'd eat up that 20 hours a month in
5:37 a week or two, right? So So that wasn't
5:39 good. So we just never used it. Um but
5:42 now we're upping our subscription, so
5:44 we're going to get unlimited streaming
5:46 hours. So that's cool. And then um we
5:50 will um probably
5:55 It it kind of does look like Tik Tok
5:57 might go away. So, what I need to figure
5:59 out is can I stream on YouTube and on
6:02 Mighty Network simultaneously. And if I
6:04 can, then this will probably go live
6:08 within the Irregulars channel, which by
6:10 the way, if you tried to find it today,
6:12 I renamed the Irregulars channel AI
6:16 Learning Lab and Irregulars. So, if
6:19 you're trying to find this, it's not
6:20 called Irregulars anymore on the on the
6:22 AI salon Tik Tok pin. If Tik Tok goes
6:26 away this weekend, follow us on at Yeah.
6:29 on YouTube. The the channel is learning
6:33 lab-ai on YouTube. All right. So, go
6:36 there now and
6:37 [Music]
6:45 subscribe. You can get that adjusted. I
6:48 did. They were mad about it, but super
6:50 happy in the end. Oh, that that that
6:53 distance thing that it's like not far
6:55 enough away. Yeah, they they I think
6:57 they [ __ ] these things
6:59 up. [ __ ] mail order glasses. It's not
7:03 a good
7:04 [Music]
7:07 idea. Oh. Oh my god. Everything
7:11 disappeared for me. There was nothing
7:12 when I clicked on
7:14 irregulars. Wait, what?
7:17 I just renamed it. It should still be
7:19 there. Is it still there? Oh, like if
7:23 you didn't reload your page. Yeah, it
7:25 probably would have made it just
7:27 disappeared. AI learning lab. Yeah, it's
7:29 still there. Oh, wait. I don't want to
7:31 look at that yet. Wait, wait. I don't
7:32 want to look at that. There's something
7:34 I'm supposed to go looking at over
7:35 there. Should I look at it
7:37 now? I put your pick. I put a I put a
7:41 pick in your instant message.
7:45 The channel was
7:52 empty. Oh, I see. Yeah. Sorry about
7:54 that. That probably freaked you
7:58 out. But is all the stuff still
8:02 there? Like all the back stuff? I think
8:05 it is, right? Yeah, there's fierce. It's
8:08 all still there. Sorry about that,
8:11 Vicki. I should probably, you know,
8:15 Vicki is the community manager of the of
8:18 the of the AI salon and does a fantastic
8:22 job. She does a bangup job.
8:24 Uh I, as the founder of of the AI salon,
8:29 have login access to all this [ __ ] And
8:32 you know me, I just do
8:35 [ __ ] It probably it probably would have
8:39 been swell had I told Vicki that I was
8:42 doing
8:43 [Laughter]
8:47 that. Wait, not for
8:50 you? Oh, I'll go purge some
8:53 cookies. Wait, that channel's still
8:56 going. Is it still called Irregulars,
8:57 Vicki, or is it called AI Learning Lab
8:59 and Irregulars?
9:09 [Music]
9:10 [Applause]
9:11 [Music]
9:21 producer Brandon rules. We don't need no
9:24 stinking
9:26 rules. Well, sorry about that. Yeah,
9:28 you're gonna have to you're gonna have
9:30 to blow your cookies cookies out. Sorry,
9:32 YouTube logged me out. Oh, it's still
9:35 called irregulars. Yeah, that's
9:36 definitely a cookie thing or a cache
9:38 thing. Something like
9:40 that. That's That's why it's not there
9:42 because it's it's not called that
9:43 anymore.
9:45 [Music]
10:03 I thought you fired me. No, no. I love
10:06 you. I just I just did an irresponsible
10:09 thing and renamed something without
10:10 telling
10:18 you. You're going to blow your cookies
10:21 up. This is a strange conversation.
10:23 [Laughter]
10:28 Oh
10:30 man. So, rumor has it that they wrote
10:33 all the new tariff math with chat GPT
10:36 and apparently it got a couple of major
10:38 things
10:39 [Laughter]
10:46 wrong. What did I walk into? It's not
10:49 good, John. It's not good.
10:53 [Music]
10:57 You you know how when you're looking at
10:59 something that was written by Chat GPT
11:01 that someone else wrote where you're
11:02 like, "Oh, oh, that's chat GBT."
11:05 Apparently, all of the internet figured
11:08 that out with some of the tariff
11:11 math. I don't know if it's true, so it
11:14 may not be, but if it is true, that
11:16 makes me that makes me giggle.
11:19 It's like that lawyer that wrote the
11:20 legal brief and gave it to a judge and
11:22 the judge is like, "None of these cases
11:24 actually exist." And he's like, "Oh
11:26 yeah, I wrote that in
11:28 chat except it's the
11:31 [Laughter]
11:34 government." That's awesome. All
11:38 right, this is a good time to look at
11:40 the irregulars image. Okay, so what do
11:43 we have here? Why isn't Kyle in the AI
11:46 learning lab? is 15 minutes late. That's
11:48 like three years in GBT time. You're
11:51 fine-tuning my heart. The rate limited
11:54 soul. Nice. The dog singing. Okay, but
11:57 this slaps. I'm crying and I know why.
12:00 Is the dog harmonizing? I think I just
12:02 saw
12:05 EGI. Should we tell him he missed the
12:07 meeting? Let the man cook. Oh man. Oh,
12:12 there's a whole pile of these. Where's
12:15 Kylie? He's over an hour late. He's
12:18 falling into short form content
12:25 again. Oh, you all are
12:32 awesome. Wait, where where am I this
12:35 time? If I skip this meeting every
12:37 parallel universe, do I actually miss
12:39 it? That's really good. Sorry I'm late.
12:42 My digital tin tried to delete me from
12:44 version control. Classic Kyle. Where's
12:47 Kyle? You guys are awesome. I assume
12:51 this is all chat GPT, huh? Chat GPT.
12:54 Yeah, that animation style is kind of
12:57 their default animation style. It's
13:02 interesting. This one's your favorite.
13:05 Where's Kyle? Previously on Tech on
13:07 Kyle's Week in Tech. I bet he's under
13:10 cover at a prompt cult. You know, the
13:12 ones that worship the sacred
13:15 syntax. Sorry I'm late. My Roomba tried
13:18 to unionize then demanded chat GPT API
13:21 access. That's pretty
13:22 [Laughter]
13:26 good. Oh man, love
13:29 it. Y'all are swell. So that channel is
13:33 now called AI Learning Lab and
13:35 Irregulars. I put it at the top again.
13:38 We had we had um slid our way down to
13:41 like fifth and I wasn't I wasn't putting
13:45 up with it. So I moved us to the top and
13:47 renamed it and deleted it from Vicky's
13:50 computer except for Vicki. Vicki still
13:53 sees it
13:57 fifth. Sorry
14:01 Vicky. No way. We spent long hours
14:03 making those cartoons.
14:08 Oh, the government isn't allowed to use
14:10 chat GPT. They use co-pilot and it
14:13 [Laughter]
14:20 shows. That's the deal. It changes every
14:22 week. Yeah, I know. I just rechanged
14:25 it and I randomly put myself at the top.
14:33 You can, seriously, Vicki, you can
14:34 actually once you get your um your
14:37 left-hand navigation sorted again, you
14:40 can move it to wherever you
14:41 want. Oh, man. The sign said, "Let's
14:44 delve into tariffs." Exactly. Let's
14:47 delve into the tapestry of
14:49 [Laughter]
14:53 tariffs.
14:55 Oh, but it's not Sunday. It changes on
14:58 Sunday. I listen, I'm a rule breaker,
15:01 man. I'm just a rule breaker. I drive my
15:04 son [ __ ]
15:06 crazy. He drives me crazy, too. He's
15:09 like, "That's not That's not what That's
15:11 not what the manual say. That's not what
15:12 the manual says." I'm like, "I don't
15:14 care what the manual says. We're going
15:15 to do it like this, and then I'll [ __ ]
15:17 something up." And he's like, "The man
15:19 the manual said not to do it that way
15:21 because if you did it that way, you you
15:23 would [ __ ] it up like that.
15:32 Wow, that's really weird, Vicki. It's
15:34 definitely You've got some sort of
15:35 weirdass cash thing going on. I'm with
15:38 the
15:39 twins. Sorry about that. Oh,
15:42 [Music]
15:44 well. All right. So, I So, I I I want to
15:47 talk about something tonight. Oh,
15:49 really? Don't you talk about something
15:50 every
15:52 night? No need to get testy. I know
15:55 you're defending Vickiy's honor here,
15:57 and that's absolutely appropriate, as
15:59 you
16:01 should. I was a heathen. I I was a
16:04 digital heathen today. I I will admit
16:07 that. I didn't know it would totally
16:10 [ __ ] up her navigation, but you know,
16:15 uh but I did know I was I was I was
16:17 acting irrationally.
16:23 What are you going to
16:24 do? Okay. Uh, meanwhile, an 87year-old
16:29 Philadelphia tortoise named Mommy has
16:31 become one. Really? 97year-old tortoise
16:35 got pregnant? Is that some sort of AI
16:38 remarkable thing or just a weird fluke
16:40 of
16:41 nature? I see all this as us watching
16:44 our parents' generation
16:47 trying last ditch effort to ruin it all
16:50 for us. I like
16:54 turtles. But did you document it? Yeah,
16:58 I documented. You know how I documented
17:00 it, Vicki? I mentioned it on a recorded
17:03 um video live broadcast right now. So,
17:06 yes, it's documented.
17:10 [Music]
17:36 I need an
17:37 SOP. Vicki needs her SOPs. If you don't
17:41 know what an SOP is, welcome to the ADD
17:43 club. Standard operating procedure.
17:48 standard operating
17:50 procedure is is uh is something. So
17:54 listen, we've got a $20 million
17:57 production studio here,
17:59 right? You know what it would have cost
18:01 us to have standard operating
18:04 procedures? 21 million. We had a cap of
18:07 20 million. Like I I swear to
18:10 God, priority one was let's get the
18:12 studio right. We spent $20 million. The
18:15 next thing we were going to do was
18:17 standard operating procedures. And we we
18:19 just hit the cap. It's it's like a it's
18:21 like a basketball team or an F1 team.
18:23 When you hit the cap, you hit the cap.
18:24 There's nothing you can do. We hit the
18:26 cap. We're not the Yankees. You can't
18:28 just blow through the cap like the
18:30 Yankees, you know. So, you know, when we
18:34 budget next year, Vicki, if we if we can
18:37 get that additional million in funding
18:39 and if if it stays at the same priority
18:42 level, we will have thick binders. Many
18:50 binders. Ah. Oh my god. Adorable. What's
18:53 your dog's name? Champy. That's Champy.
18:56 All right. Gen X is the only generation
18:59 who knows how to use tech. We have to
19:02 teach our parents and our kids. Honest
19:04 to God. Honest to God.
19:07 I I was talking there was some reporter
19:10 at the CEO dinner
19:12 tonight and he was like he was like I
19:16 don't really know how to use this AI
19:18 stuff. I'm like
19:20 really? You're like you're you're
19:23 writing on business for a business
19:26 journal
19:28 startups. Yeah. Yeah, they're all doing
19:30 this AI stuff.
19:31 Yeah. Yeah. We don't really use it. It
19:35 was funny. It was funny. I said, so when
19:37 I do the CEO dinner, I we all have to
19:40 get up on stage and we say who we are
19:41 and what we do and then we have an ask
19:43 for the community. And so my ask and it
19:46 was it's kind of the stuff I want to
19:47 talk about
19:48 tonight. My ask for the community was
19:51 who feels that their
19:53 business is is going to be in direct
19:57 threat because of AI, right? And and
20:01 what are you going to and what are you
20:02 doing about it? Like are you doing
20:04 anything about it? And I said, if you
20:06 know, if anyone's got thoughts on that,
20:08 come talk to me. And then he he got up
20:10 to introduce himself and he said, I I'm
20:13 what was his name? Max. I'm Max and I
20:16 work for this publication and uh I think
20:19 I think I work for one of those
20:21 businesses Kyle was talking about it's
20:24 gonna be decimated. I was
20:28 like,
20:29 "Yeah,
20:31 yeah." So, anyway,
20:34 um,
20:37 okay, Millennial here. No need for a Gen
20:40 X
20:44 tutorial. Still a boomer after all these
20:48 years.
20:50 Oh, did you get out or or to sit at the
20:53 kids table? No, I did my homework. So, I
20:55 was at the I was at the management
20:57 table. And you know what we talked about
20:59 at the management table?
21:04 AI. You know why? Cuz I was
21:08 there. We're not We're not having a
21:10 business conversation and not talking
21:12 about
21:14 AI. I'm like, "Have you seen the cool
21:16 new picture
21:17 thing?" I showed them all my magazine
21:20 covers. They're like, "Wait, it does
21:22 that? It does that now, huh? I should
21:27 really use chat GPT more, shouldn't I?
21:33 Huh?
21:35 Oh, it is still we are
21:39 still this shocks me to say, but we're
21:41 still very early. There's still a lot of
21:44 people not using this. A lot of people
21:46 don't know what's coming. They don't
21:48 know what's here.
21:50 And and listen, I'm in a room full of
21:55 entrepreneurs,
21:56 right? Two years ago, I was the only guy
21:59 talking about AI. A year ago, there were
22:02 four or five. Now, it's like more than
22:05 half of the companies being introduced
22:08 are AI
22:11 companies. So, it's shifting, but it's
22:13 like it's it's remarkably slow.
22:15 Remarkably slow. All right. So, here's
22:17 what I want to talk about. My hate wife,
22:20 my my wife hates it when I bring up AI.
22:23 I
22:25 I have taken a no prisoner prisoners
22:29 Well, you know, I'm running this [ __ ]
22:30 channel, right? I've taken a no
22:33 prisoners attitude. I like I think there
22:35 should be no shame in talking about AI
22:38 all the time. None. There shouldn't be
22:40 shame in it. And if the people around
22:43 you are like, I'm tired of hearing about
22:46 AI, Gareth.
22:49 Gareth. Gareth, could we not? Could we
22:52 just have dinner and talk about macaroni
22:54 and
22:55 cheese? Gareth. God, why do you always
22:58 have to talk about
22:59 AI?
23:02 Gareth, keep talking about
23:07 it. Now, listen, I'm no marriage
23:10 [Laughter]
23:14 counselor, but I just I like I do it in
23:17 my house. No one here wants to [ __ ]
23:19 hear it anymore. They're done. They're
23:22 done. I'm like, "Hey, Zack Ali." They're
23:24 like, "What? Another AI thing?"
23:27 Yeah. And I show them. They're like,
23:30 "That's
23:32 interesting." I'm like, "Do you do you
23:35 have a tongue? Could you use
23:38 it?" That's interesting.
23:43 [Music]
23:45 Like I need to get him into an acting
23:47 class. Learn to use your mouth
23:53 parts. Oh my god. So close. They hate it
23:57 until they need it. That's my exact
23:59 point. The reason to keep talking about
24:02 it is there's going to be a point at
24:05 which and it'll happen with your wife.
24:06 It'll happen. I don't know if you have
24:08 kids. It'll happen with your friends.
24:10 The ones that are like, "Girl, we're
24:12 Could we not at dinner? Could we just
24:15 order our jalapeno poppers and and a
24:18 frozen margarita, please? No
24:20 salt." Makes my lips chapped.
24:24 Um, at some point at one of those
24:26 dinners or at the dinner table,
24:29 someone's going to have gotten fired or
24:31 someone's gonna say, "Well, Jenny got a
24:35 promotion above me and they said it was
24:38 cuz Jenny learned AI
24:41 and Gareth, could you teach me
24:45 AI?" And they will say it like that.
24:48 [Laughter]
24:51 And then you're in the position of
24:53 power, dude. Then you're in the position
24:55 of power. You could choose not to teach
24:58 them. You could go,
24:59 "Well, I could teach
25:01 you. I've been trying to teach you for
25:04 two years
25:06 now. And what have I gotten? Little
25:09 little flicks away. Little let's let's
25:11 move it along, Gareth. Let's not talk
25:13 about AI, Gareth."
25:16 You can get fullon
25:18 indignant and then you leverage it and
25:21 you
25:23 say, "I get to watch what I want on TV
25:26 for a whole week. I own the clicker."
25:30 Right? You do something like that, you
25:31 do a power move in a marriage, a full
25:34 week of clicker control. That's [ __ ]
25:36 insane. It's unheard of. It's
25:38 unprecedented. It's never
25:41 happened. That's the kind of power
25:43 you'll wield. So keep talking about AI.
25:46 [ __ ] them. [ __ ] them
25:50 all. I've also been talking about it for
25:53 two plus years, but before that it was
25:55 machine learning. Yeah, you're you're a
25:57 little see you're a little geekier. So
25:59 you know, you were probably talking
26:00 about weights and embeddings, honey.
26:04 They there there's a new model there's a
26:06 new algorithm for embeddings that's
26:08 really exciting and it automatically
26:09 generates the weights and you don't have
26:11 to
26:12 manually Yeah, that's that's got to be
26:14 rough. I can see why they I I can see
26:17 why they there's an issue at home. Yeah,
26:20 but you know, good for you. You you be
26:23 you. [ __ ] them. Okay, we're spicy Kyle
26:27 tonight. Did they serve Bllandons at the
26:29 CEO dinner? No, but I did have two
26:31 bourbon mules.
26:33 So, so I'm probably a little loopy. I
26:36 don't feel loopy, but I'm a little loose
26:38 lipped, if you know what I mean.
26:45 Be annoying. This is from Kelly Camp
26:46 Source Camp. This is a woman who is I I
26:50 I swear to God she is single-handedly
26:53 transforming the city of Dallas into AI
26:56 literate. Like you watch the city of
26:58 Dallas is going to be more AI literate
27:00 than than San Francisco in about a year.
27:03 And and Kelly Camp is the reason why.
27:06 She says be annoying at dinner parties,
27:08 networking events. It will pay off.
27:10 She's got a career based on just living
27:14 into
27:17 that. She She's done it in bank line.
27:20 You've done it in bank lines, right?
27:21 Like you've been in bank lines. People
27:24 are like just minding their own
27:26 business. Hey, you know what's going on
27:28 with AI? You want to see a cool parlor
27:35 trick? Oh, one of my first experiments
27:38 with AI is on Facebook. Oh, that's cool.
27:40 Jeff, I can't click on it, but people in
27:43 the in the YouTube can. You should go
27:45 click on it. Yeah,
27:49 everywhere. Okay, here's here's what
27:52 we're going to talk about.
27:53 And Kelly, this is particularly
27:57 um excuse
28:00 me, I think you'll find this
28:02 particularly interesting for your
28:04 business. Okay.
28:11 So, was talking with Leah Fasten today.
28:13 So, Leah is my co-founder of the AI
28:15 Salon, which why don't you go ahead and
28:17 throw the banner the AI salon banner up
28:19 there, um Brandon, while we're at it.
28:23 Go there. If you're not a member of the
28:25 AI salon, go to that URL, the
28:28 salon.ai, click on join our community,
28:31 and then do that. Join our community.
28:33 There's like a little sevenstep welcome
28:36 process. And if you're like me, you'll
28:38 do like, you know, one, two, five, and
28:42 then you'll say, "I'll get back to the
28:43 other ones." And then you never will. It
28:45 doesn't matter. But if you do all seven
28:47 of them, you get a
28:48 badge. So get a badge. be an Eagle
28:53 Scout. Like, I ended at Weeblows. That's
28:56 That's how sad this state of affairs is.
28:59 I got out of Cub Scouts,
29:01 but never really made it to Boy Scouts.
29:04 I I I we blowed
29:05 out. It's like It's like middle school
29:08 for the scouting scouting
29:12 division. Chemical farmer. I use chat a
29:15 lot, but I struggle with building fully
29:16 fleshed out solutions to solve a
29:18 problem. Yeah, it's still janky. AI is
29:22 still janky. If if you're not, you know,
29:25 even if you're coding, it's still janky.
29:27 It's and it's a mess and it's
29:28 inconsistent. And something that worked
29:30 a week ago doesn't work this week. I
29:32 whatever. I don't know. I Yes, I agree.
29:38 Okay. Oh, Lord Digital Gods with a super
29:42 sticker. Thank you, Lord Digital Gods.
29:45 That's generous of you. You're You are a
29:46 generous man. I appreciate it as always.
29:49 Lord Digital Gods, also speaking of
29:51 people building cool [ __ ] with AI,
29:53 figured out a
29:56 way. I I used to be doing
30:00 this in a poor way. He figured out a way
30:03 to take the YouTube transcripts from
30:05 these lives and turn them into like
30:07 title, description, and
30:09 chapters. He worked on that for a good
30:12 goddamn long time because these tools
30:14 are really janky. So anyway, all
30:20 right. AI killed the
30:24 economy with tariff
30:27 messups. Oh yeah, that's what they're
30:29 going to do. They're going to get caught
30:30 for using chat GPT to to write tariff
30:33 stuff and then they're going to blame AI
30:35 and then it's going to be a reason to
30:37 kill AI. That's that's actually a good
30:39 conspiracy theory. Okay, here's what I
30:42 want to talk about. So, I'm talking with
30:44 Leah Fasten. Leah Faston's been a
30:46 professional photographer for more than
30:49 20
30:50 years. She and I started the AI salon
30:53 because I was making these Kyle Shannon
30:56 dreams, all those silly images of me
30:58 from that I did back in 2022. I was
31:00 doing them at the time and she she
31:02 reached out to find out like how are you
31:05 doing those? What are you doing? What
31:06 tools are you using? And so we talked
31:09 and and you know more than talking about
31:11 the technology, we just talked about
31:14 this AI stuff and what's going on and
31:16 what's going to be the future of
31:17 photography and all that sort of stuff.
31:19 And so we started the salon
31:21 together and Leah is like incredibly
31:25 smart, incredibly talented with the
31:27 photography stuff and she's been really
31:31 oscillating between um you know this AI
31:36 stuff's the greatest stuff ever and then
31:38 but then it was like yeah but it can
31:40 replicate my style really easily. No,
31:42 but photography you know I've still got
31:44 in-person things. and she's going back
31:46 and forth and back and forth. And in the
31:49 past, I don't know, 6 months or so, it's
31:52 become quite
31:54 clear that any of us can take any style
31:59 that we want and replicate it. In fact,
32:03 if you go look at there, there was a on
32:06 Twitter three days ago,
32:09 someone put out a Kentucky Fried Chicken
32:13 ad that was all AI generated and
32:15 everyone was like, "Oh my god, look how
32:16 good the AI generated stuff is." Well,
32:19 it turns out what they did was they took
32:22 an existing Kentucky Fried Chicken ad
32:25 that was created with a real
32:28 photographer and a real like a real film
32:30 making crew and they just matched it
32:32 shot forshot and then put it out as a
32:35 demo reel of their own thing. Um, and
32:38 that came out today. So,
32:40 but it came out today that well that
32:43 that was a ripoff of this other these
32:45 other people's intellectual property.
32:47 Now, it I assume it was just done as a
32:50 demo, but like the AI influencers took
32:53 it as, "Oh, look how great this is." And
32:54 then it turns out they got egg on their
32:56 face because, you know, he just
32:58 basically stole shot forshot a
33:00 traditional filmmaker's work. But the
33:03 point there
33:04 is you're just going to people are going
33:07 to be able to copy your work in film, in
33:09 video, in music, in
33:12 writing, all of
33:14 it, trivially
33:18 easily. And so, so Leah was telling me
33:21 that she's got a new section on her
33:23 website. She's got the photography
33:25 section and now she's got the AI
33:27 section. and she was talking about the
33:29 product and how she's going to market it
33:31 and who she's going to market it to and
33:33 it was all good stuff, but like there
33:35 was this thing that kept hitting me that
33:37 kept just [ __ ] banging me in the
33:41 head and it's this Leah Leah told me
33:43 this this thing once about communities
33:46 about online communities in particular
33:48 and and being a
33:50 woman and because we were talking
33:53 about you know what do we want the
33:55 values of the salon to be and you know
33:58 how how do how do we have a place that
34:00 makes people feel included,
34:02 right? And what she told me about women
34:06 and online communities is that
34:09 um if it is not conducive for
34:13 them, they won't tell you. They will
34:17 just
34:19 slowly disappear into the background.
34:21 They will just slowly back out and just
34:24 be gone. And you won't know it. It's not
34:26 a loud quitting, right? It, you know,
34:28 they talk about quiet quitting in
34:30 work. And so, when she was telling me
34:32 about her photography site or or, you
34:36 know, this choice of her having, you
34:38 know, the the in-person photography as
34:41 an offering and this AI stuff as an
34:43 offering.
34:47 First, it struck me she's really [ __ ]
34:51 lucky that she started learning this
34:54 stuff two years ago and has gone through
34:56 the cycles of mourning and loss and
35:00 like, "Oh, this is really exciting. Ah,
35:02 this is [ __ ] terrifying. Oh, this is
35:04 great. Oh my god, this is the worst
35:06 thing
35:07 ever." That
35:10 emotional, you know, wash, rinse, and
35:12 repeat cycle.
35:15 I think every knowledge worker is going
35:17 to have to go through some version of
35:19 that and it's not going to be
35:21 easy. So, so a thing that hit me was
35:24 she's she's in a really fortunate
35:27 position that she can offer this and she
35:30 knows how to do it. She knows what it
35:32 is. She she's got her point of view on
35:34 it. She understands her point of view on
35:37 copyright. But that that image of women
35:40 in a community that that doesn't have
35:42 the right values just slowly slowly
35:45 backing out or just, you know, they just
35:47 don't come back,
35:50 right? I felt I I felt like that with
35:53 her photography customers that that's
35:55 what's going to
35:57 happen. That they're not going to call
35:59 Leah up and go, "Hey, Leah, we're not
36:02 hiring physical photographers anymore."
36:04 You know, Jenny's cousin Bob went to the
36:08 AI learning lab and learned how to make
36:10 images in midjourney, so we're good.
36:12 Now, they're not going to call her.
36:15 They're just going to slowly back out.
36:18 And I feel
36:20 like service professionals like
36:22 photographers and illustrators and then
36:25 and then agencies and creative agencies
36:28 and then if you think about it, any kind
36:30 of knowledge work
36:38 The
36:40 competition, the competition's not going
36:43 to
36:44 be the money from these companies going
36:47 to other
36:49 competitors. It's just going to be a a
36:52 slow retreat of hiring these
36:55 companies. And so, so I came up with a
36:58 with with an idea that we we sort of
37:00 kicked it around. And here's where we
37:02 landed that that I I think ultimately
37:04 she liked this and I think this could be
37:06 really
37:06 cool and it's this. So in her case, I'll
37:10 just do it for her um specifically, but
37:12 I think you could totally genericize
37:14 this
37:15 out. So step one is you have to get to
37:18 the point that you
37:21 understand what AI can do that was your
37:25 traditional
37:27 business. Like is it 60% as good? Is it
37:30 100% as good? Is it 200%? Is it 100%
37:33 better than what you currently do? Or is
37:36 it 20% as much as what you do now? You
37:39 have a little bit more time if you have
37:41 that gap. But I would argue that most
37:44 businesses, here's their business. AI is
37:47 probably somewhere in the 50 to 80%
37:49 range, right? And so we all know on this
37:53 channel within a year it's going to be a
37:55 hundred.
37:57 So what we talked about
38:00 was what if she proactively reaches out
38:04 to a handful of customers. So you don't
38:06 start with
38:07 everyone. You start with a handful of
38:10 trusted customers. So customers that
38:11 know her for, you know, 10 years, 15
38:14 years, right? She's in a business that
38:17 is very much relationshipbased. I think
38:19 a lot of businesses are. She reaches out
38:22 to her trusted customers and she asks
38:25 them flat
38:27 out, "Is this AI stuff, where is it on
38:31 your radar? Is it good enough that
38:33 you're starting to think we might need
38:36 not need to do a shoot next year like we
38:39 did this past
38:40 December?" Oh, no. Everything's fine.
38:43 Okay, next client. Are you thinking
38:46 about using AI? Oh, yeah. I mean, I
38:49 didn't want to say anything, but we're
38:51 already kind of doing it and it's kind
38:53 of cool. I mean, you
38:55 know, right? Get a lay of the land.
38:58 Like, proactively reach out to your
39:00 customer
39:02 base and say, "How far away are we?
39:05 Where is it on your radar? Maybe it's
39:08 nowhere on their radar."
39:10 Great. But maybe it is on their radar.
39:13 And again, I don't think they're going
39:14 to tell you.
39:15 So, and and then here's the follow on.
39:18 So, here's the what you do about it. So,
39:21 in Leah's case, she's got the
39:24 photography offering, she's got the AI
39:26 offering, image making with AI.
39:30 So figure out where the customer base
39:32 is. And if it's clear that over the next
39:35 year, they're just going to sort of back
39:37 out of hiring
39:39 her, why not proactively offer them a
39:43 monthly retainer to generate AI images
39:46 for them? So instead of me making photos
39:50 with my camera and editing, you just pay
39:53 me 500 bucks a month, a,000 bucks a
39:56 month. I didn't we didn't get into
39:57 details. I don't I don't give a [ __ ]
39:58 what she charges, but you know, whatever
40:00 she whatever whatever is fair for
40:02 her. And for that 500 bucks a month, you
40:06 get up to 20 images for whatever
40:11 projects you
40:12 want and just and if you if you sign up
40:15 for a year, I'll give it to you for 400
40:18 bucks a month. Okay, cool. Great. Yeah,
40:21 let's do that. And then that way she's
40:23 converted rather than someone just not
40:25 being there and not hiring her next
40:28 December. She's got some revenue coming
40:30 in for that. And what she can offer
40:33 them, which no one else can offer them,
40:36 is she's Leah Fasten. They already trust
40:39 her. They already know her. They know
40:40 she's got integrity. They they know
40:42 she's got
40:45 professionalism. and she can
40:47 legitimately say, "I'm going to bring
40:49 that same work and creative ethic to AI
40:53 that I brought to digital
40:55 photography, that I brought to film
40:59 photography." So that's the idea that
41:02 every business, whether you're a one-man
41:05 shop, a 10person shop, a thousand person
41:07 company, should be looking at here's our
41:10 business today. Here's the business
41:13 model. Here's the
41:16 um processes. Here's what we do. Here's
41:20 what they pay us money for. Here's why
41:22 they pay us that money. In the case of
41:25 an agency, they're paying us time and
41:27 materials. If we have 50 copy
41:29 copywriters sitting in a
41:31 pit, working 40 hours a week, they pay
41:34 us $140 an hour for every one of them.
41:37 That's how we make our money. Understand
41:39 what that
41:40 is. and then look at where AI is and say
41:44 if I were going to reinvent this
41:45 business, how would I do it? How would I
41:48 attack this with
41:52 AI and then just create that as a
41:54 separate offering? And you can start
41:56 marketing that. But you can then take
41:59 that to your existing customer base and
42:01 say, "Hey, how close are you to firing
42:04 us because this
42:07 exists?" So anyway, that's that. What do
42:10 you think?
42:13 thoughts. I love that for Leah. I know.
42:15 Isn't that
42:17 cool? Plus, midjourney and chat GPT
42:20 generate crappy images unless you ask
42:23 for anime. That's not true. That's not
42:25 true, Sunny. It's not
42:30 true. It is not true. You do you do need
42:33 to know how to prompt them. But again,
42:35 that's a thing where the advantage for
42:38 Leah is she spent two years figuring out
42:42 how to get
42:44 midjourney to create images that are in
42:47 her
42:48 style. Like very personal to her. Like
42:50 like that kind of stuff is very subtle.
42:52 Like how she frames people in the you
42:56 know in the frame, how she does her
42:58 post-processing, all that sort of stuff
43:00 is very very subtle and personal. So,
43:03 she knows how to slay it with that with
43:07 midjourney. And what she can promise to
43:10 clients is, I'm going to give you images
43:12 that don't look like AI. I'm going to
43:15 give you images that look like what
43:16 you're used to. I understand your brand.
43:19 And then potentially, she could even do
43:21 things like maybe she creates custom
43:24 brand kits for companies to be able to
43:27 go make their own images in their own
43:30 style, right? She could do that really
43:32 well. again, she's got credibility for
43:34 it. So, there's kind of a whole
43:36 potential new area of business for her.
43:40 But, but it just like I got this really
43:42 sinking feeling when I was talking to
43:43 her that that that visual of people just
43:47 sort of shrinking into the background.
43:49 And those are customers. That's revenue
43:52 just shrinking into the background. The
43:54 next wave is people figuring out they
43:57 don't really know how to prompt, right?
43:59 And that's the other thing, source camp,
44:01 right? again, like I feel like if you're
44:04 hanging out on this channel, right, if
44:06 you've got the tolerance for this, then
44:09 you're motivated to learn something
44:10 about
44:12 AI. A lot of people don't have that. So
44:16 all of us that are figuring out our own
44:18 little special recipe for how we do
44:20 prompting and how we get
44:22 results that gets more and more and more
44:25 valuable as as lots of people come on
44:28 and they're like I'm using these AI
44:30 tools and they don't I I hear this all
44:32 the time. People are like I I use AI
44:34 tools and I don't get the results you
44:36 get. And I'm
44:38 like, okay, but are are you
44:41 spending six, seven, eight hours a day
44:45 [ __ ] around with this
44:48 stuff? No.
44:52 Okay. I guess that's the journey. My mom
44:55 is an artist and I asked Chat JPT to
44:56 generate something on my mom's style
44:58 from her website and it needs
45:00 finetuning. Well, that's so that
45:02 happened that's happened many many times
45:04 with my wife as well. My my wife's an
45:06 abstract artist and she does these very
45:09 flowy kind of paintings and they're
45:10 they're very organic and Chachi PT can't
45:14 quite get it and like every time I try
45:16 something she's like eh nah nah that's
45:17 not it and occasionally something will
45:19 come out that's kind of there but if she
45:23 wanted to to learn midjourney in her
45:26 style like if your mom who's an
45:28 artist wanted to figure out how to
45:31 replicate her style she could do it
45:33 right but yeah
45:35 It's the the
45:37 the tropes about
45:40 AI are that it just squirts out
45:45 [ __ ] which is right. Right. If you just
45:48 push the button, give me an image of
45:50 this kind of art or, you know, let me
45:52 upload a picture, make something that
45:53 looks like that, it's going to give you
45:55 something shitty.
45:59 But real artists that I know that are
46:01 using these
46:03 tools, they're not just pushing a button
46:06 and outs squirts crap. They're
46:07 iterating. If you uh uh CJ Fletcher,
46:11 who's who's in the AI salon, he he runs
46:14 uh uh two different clubs within within
46:18 the AI salon, and he's an artist, and
46:20 his goal is to be in MoMA in five years,
46:22 which I think I love that goal.
46:25 He is
46:26 maniacal maniacal about his prompting
46:31 and he he iterates
46:33 like hundreds of times for a single
46:36 image. He'll iterate and iterate and
46:39 iterate and work on just subtle changes
46:41 in the prompt, subtle changes in the
46:43 image, subtle da da da da da. Then he'll
46:46 combine images. Then he'll hundreds and
46:49 hundreds of variations until he gets
46:52 something. He has a level of control
46:54 that he's shooting for that he gets to.
46:57 So you can absolutely treat
47:00 AI like an art
47:03 medium. But if you just give into the
47:06 fact that well it's just crappy at that
47:08 stuff. Well then
47:09 it AI will be here here's the brilliant
47:13 thing about AI. AI is absolutely a
47:16 reflection of your input.
47:20 So if you give it lazy in, you're going
47:23 to get lazy
47:24 out. If you really want to create art
47:27 with it, you can absolutely create art
47:29 art with it. It's crazy though. But
47:32 really good point. Thank you for sharing
47:35 that. Your promptability is what people
47:39 be known for. Yep. I've gotten
47:41 midjourney rep to replicate my style so
47:43 that I can create a mockup. Very cool.
47:45 I'm terrible at visual stuff, but I've
47:47 got my writing style escalating nicely.
47:51 That's that's the other
47:52 thing. One of the cool things
47:56 about being good at a a thing or
47:59 two,
48:01 right? Is that you can look at AI, you
48:04 can look at the output of AI through
48:06 your lens, like if you're really good at
48:08 writing a certain
48:09 style, you can look at the output of AI
48:12 and instantly know what's wrong with it.
48:14 And then you can mash it up and mash it
48:17 up and mash it up and you can get it to
48:19 the point where every time you get
48:21 something out, it sounds just like you.
48:23 Yep, that's what I would have written.
48:24 Yep, that's what I would have written.
48:26 You can do that with every single one of
48:28 the AI tools out there. But they all
48:30 take work. And some of them are just not
48:33 there, right? Some of them um depending
48:35 on what you're trying to create, they're
48:37 just not right. Like the physics in in
48:41 most of the video generating tools are
48:44 horrible. So if you want a car to look
48:47 like it's actually rolling and actually
48:49 have forces on it when it goes around a
48:50 corner and it leans just a certain way,
48:54 it's not there right now. Will it be?
48:56 Yep, it will. All
48:59 right. I didn't see get his attention
49:03 show. I don't know what that's about.
49:06 The key to good prompts is more
49:08 information. AI is data driven. So give
49:10 it information. Yes. Give it lots of
49:12 context. Context is everything. Also so
49:15 is feedback which is context. Right? If
49:18 you try to generate something in AI and
49:20 it gives you something shitty, tell it
49:21 it gave you something shitty. It'll get
49:30 better. Oh, I was on a panel the other
49:32 night and Herod D walked by. Oh, that's
49:34 so cool.
49:35 [Laughter]
49:38 CJ's an amazing artist. He really
49:44 is. If you haven't If you haven't talked
49:48 with CJ about how he
49:51 prompts, do yourself a favor and ask him
49:54 about it. It's amazing.
50:06 [Music]
50:10 All right. Context is hard when there
50:13 are character limits. Absolutely.
50:15 Absolutely agree with
50:17 that. Would be nice when criticizing
50:20 Just be nice when criticizing the AI.
50:23 Remember, better to be the cherished pet
50:25 than than a simple battery.
50:28 Yeah, I'm I'm a little smartassy to my
50:31 AIS. I And I do it on this channel for
50:34 entertainment, but it's all going into
50:37 the memory. So, at some point, Chat GPT
50:39 is probably going to kick my ass when
50:42 when when when Quinn is embodied in a
50:44 robot. She's probably just gonna walk up
50:46 to
50:48 me. That's for calling me a clueless
50:51 loser.
50:57 Oh man. All right.
51:01 Um, okay. Let me let me wind this up
51:04 because I'm a little I'm a little crispy
51:05 from the CEO dinner.
51:08 Um, so tomorrow, if you're uh if you're
51:12 new here, I do a thing on Fridays called
51:15 AI office hours on LinkedIn. So if you
51:18 go to LinkedIn, my my handle on LinkedIn
51:21 is Kyle Shannon. Kyle Shannon. Um, and
51:25 you can click on my events and it says
51:27 AI office hours. I've been doing them
51:29 for two years. It's been the same URL
51:31 for two years. So, just go grab the URL,
51:33 throw it in your calendar, and join us
51:35 on Fridays. It's open to anyone.
51:38 Um, what it's ended up being is is like
51:41 kind of a an informally put together
51:43 master class where we've got a core
51:45 group of people that show up to that
51:47 thing that are really doing some kickass
51:51 things in the world using AI. Like some
51:55 of them are in big companies, some of
51:57 them are small companies, some of them
51:58 are, you know, independent people that
52:00 are just figuring new amazing [ __ ] out.
52:05 Um, and it's an incredibly thoughtful
52:08 group. It's really good. So, it's 11:00
52:10 a.m. Mountain
52:12 time on LinkedIn and then I also stream
52:15 it live to Oh, no, I don't. I just do it
52:18 on LinkedIn. Um, or it's actually a
52:21 Google Meet, but the the the hyperlink
52:23 is on
52:24 LinkedIn. Um, so I'll do a reminder for
52:27 that in the morning. Tomorrow night is
52:29 Friday night date night. It is first
52:31 Friday, so it will probably be late
52:33 tomorrow. I'll probably be like 9:00
52:35 like this one. If I can go early, I
52:37 will. Um, but I'm probably going to be
52:39 out doing gallery [ __ ] because that's
52:41 what we do in this
52:42 family. Um, Saturday, Pate is doing a
52:47 demystifying AI session. So, if you go
52:51 to
52:53 um the AI salon and go to events,
52:57 uh, it should be in there. You'll see it
52:58 in there. Or you can go to Pates. What
53:01 is
53:02 Pate's club called? It is called AI
53:06 mechanics with
53:08 Pate. Go sign up for the event there. If
53:10 you want to understand how AI
53:13 works, he's he's he's one of the smarter
53:16 people I've ever met. Um he really knows
53:20 this [ __ ] [ __ ] and he knows it from the
53:21 inside. He knows it for for how it
53:23 works. I'm out here on the outside
53:25 going, "It's magic." And he's like, "No,
53:27 it's
53:29 math." And and we have we have
53:31 compromised. We we have accepted
53:35 mathematical as as what AI is. It is
53:37 mathematical. And so if you want to
53:39 understand how this stuff works, go to
53:41 that. All right.
53:43 Um Monday voice is your backtalking
53:47 annoying. Oh yeah. If you haven't seen
53:49 it yet, go to um chat GPT advanced voice
53:53 and find the new voice Monday. instead
53:55 of a bright uh light blue cloud that
53:58 talks to you, it's a dark storm
54:01 cloud and it's just a bitter nasty
54:06 woman. It's really good.
54:10 Um the other thing I if you haven't dug
54:13 into the image generation stuff. So let
54:16 me let me show you the
54:20 um you know like like these these
54:23 cartoon panels. These are coming
54:25 straight out of chat
54:27 GPT. Like it understands this [ __ ] It's
54:31 amazing. What else we do? Do we have
54:33 anything else in here? Oh yeah, Waking
54:34 Bad. That was really good from
54:41 Vicki. Straight out of straight out of
54:44 chat GPT, the typography, everything,
54:46 the misspelling, of
54:50 course, you know, ads like
54:55 this. It can do photo realistic stuff.
54:59 It can do magazine covers. It's crazy.
55:03 So, go play with that [ __ ] All right.
55:06 And then really if if if you're if
55:08 you're in a business that you
55:13 think might be in in in the direct line
55:16 of sight of AI capability, and quite
55:19 frankly, I think everybody is in the
55:21 direct line of
55:23 sight, but figure out where you are. How
55:27 close is it to your business?
55:29 Proactively go after that [ __ ] That's
55:32 the thing I think that's going to be the
55:33 big strategy. And for you, Source Camp,
55:35 I think I think this could be a part of
55:37 your business, right? Help help clients
55:40 figure out how they're going to be
55:42 obliterated by AI and and proactively go
55:45 after it. And because I feel like at a
55:48 minimum, they'll be able to retain their
55:50 customers for some
55:55 window. Have I said lately how much I
55:57 love this channel? Ato sweet. Thank you.
56:00 Did you see the sketch to image to Sora?
56:04 Did you see the sketch to image to Sora?
56:07 I thought it was pretty cool. I don't
56:09 know which one. I'll show you one that I
56:12 did. I
56:14 did I thought this one was pretty cool
56:17 because I did it, you
56:20 know. Hang on. Let me change my sharing.
56:23 It's in irregulars.
56:29 Okay.
56:35 Uh, this one.
56:39 [Music]
56:52 [Music]
57:02 [Music]
57:04 I just passed it
57:09 up. This
57:11 one. Oh,
57:19 yeah. Oh, hang on.
57:37 this one. Joker,
57:38 right? I didn't put sound on mine. Yeah,
57:41 that's cool. So, the the one that I
57:45 showed you before, the the one on X,
57:47 that that one's really slick looking.
57:50 this
57:51 one.
57:54 Um, I went into chat
57:58 GPT and I said just give me a frame of
58:02 of a movie basically, right? Like what
58:06 would be the frame that that you know
58:08 someone would cut out of a movie at the
58:09 most important you know scene of the
58:11 movie or whatever. I said, "Give me 20
58:13 of those ideas and just describe the
58:16 character, the scene, the style, all
58:19 that sort of shit." And so this was one
58:21 I picked. It was a kid in a cardboard
58:23 robot
58:25 costume. And then I went to Luma and I
58:28 just pasted in the prompt and it made
58:30 the image. And then I, you know, [ __ ]
58:32 around with it till I got an image I
58:34 liked. And then because I'm already in
58:36 Luma, you can turn the image into an
58:37 animation. And they've got new camera
58:39 moves that you can use. And so that one
58:42 that does all the crazy spinning of the
58:44 camera, that's that's one of their new
58:46 camera moves. And then Luma also has
58:49 sound effects in it. So the music that
58:51 was in that thing was also in Luma.
58:56 From typing the thing in chat GBT, give
58:59 me 20 prompts to this finished video
59:02 with the sound and the music was like
59:04 seven
59:06 minutes. Like insanely short.
59:12 And so that's two tools. Two
59:15 tools. When Luma gets better at
59:17 prompting, then it's going to be one
59:19 tool. And at some point, Luma is going
59:22 to get good at
59:23 editing. So you'll be able to stitch
59:25 together lots of scenes and make a
59:26 movie. And then at some point, you won't
59:29 even know it's Luma. You'll just say, "I
59:30 want to see a movie." And it'll start
59:32 playing a movie.
59:36 So go dig into this stuff and and figure
59:39 out ways that your business is going to
59:41 get upended with AI and and learn
59:45 it. Learn it. Learn it. Learn it. Learn
59:49 it. Learn it. Learn it. Is the chat GPT
59:52 voice facer
59:56 fa Brian Whitney? is the chat GPT voice
1:00:01 feature only for the fa paid version
1:00:03 still it's not you can even do this uh
1:00:07 really cool image generation in the free
1:00:08 version three a day you get three images
1:00:12 oh my god someone just posted that they
1:00:15 gave Gemini its search history and now
1:00:18 they're scared how much it knows about
1:00:27 them is one of of the problems with AI,
1:00:30 right? Historically, if if someone was
1:00:33 going to know something about you, it
1:00:35 had to go into a structured database and
1:00:38 it had to be queried with a with a uh
1:00:40 SQL query and they would pull the
1:00:43 structured data out of the database for
1:00:45 you. No, not anymore. Not with
1:00:49 AI, Brian. Three a day. I
1:00:54 know. Yeah. the the uh the image
1:00:57 generation isn't good enough that three
1:00:59 a day is gonna be worth your while, but
1:01:02 it but it's free. So, there you have it.
1:01:06 Um, if you just want to do a silly
1:01:07 magazine cover, you can do it, though.
1:01:09 Gemini would go into meltdown if it saw
1:01:11 my search history. Exactly. I'm like,
1:01:15 I'm just like, this is my my philosophy
1:01:17 in life. Don't ask a question you don't
1:01:19 want to know the answer to.
1:01:24 I know this stuff knows way more about
1:01:27 me, but I'm not seeking it
1:01:29 [Laughter]
1:01:29 [Music]
1:01:33 out. All right, kids. Um, so I'll see
1:01:36 you tomorrow, Friday. Um, see you at
1:01:38 office hours at 11:00 a.m. Mountain time
1:01:41 tomorrow. You can find that info on
1:01:42 LinkedIn at my profile, Kyle Shannon.
1:01:46 And, uh, yeah, have a good night. I hope
1:01:49 you're well. Thanks, man. Byebye.
1:01:53 kidding.
