18. 4:00>> That's the thing about AI Learning Lab. You can. It's just It's You've got to pay attention to it 24 hours a day
19. 4:05because you just never know what's going to happen. All right. Piling in. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. All right. I think my hair and eyebrows

21. 4:28just are going to do their own thing. [Music]
22. 4:45You have the anthropic hackathon. I think you mean the anthropic settlement. Heat. Heat. [Music]
23. 5:42Oh, [Music] [Music] that's [Music]
24. 6:09[Music] Ted D in New Hampshire. Used to come here many moons ago. feel like I watched season one of Breaking Bad

35. 8:55is tapping the screen like mad. I don't know if that's Mr. It with his little his little tappy tap machine. [Music]
36. 9:10We're going to do some vibe coding tonight. I think I think it could get boring as [ __ ] It's Listen, when when
37. 9:17you actually try to do something on these lives, it can get a little Oh, do me a favor. If you if you are on
38. 9:26actually wherever you are, everybody's got a phone. Get the YouTube app and go find Hang on a sec. Let me share my screen here. Go find
39. 9:40Wait, why did that not do that? Am I not sharing my screen? I'm sharing my screen. There we go. Um, not that.
40. 9:48But that's cool. That I'm excited about. That's my new my new book title. But I want you to go to go to there on YouTube
41. 10:02learning lab-ai and if you go there on your mobile device you can pick any video not this live but any other video there and you
42. 10:11can hype it. There's an option to hype the video. You can do three a week. So, do me a favor and just go hype hype like
43. 10:19the if you go into the live the live tab, you'll see the the recordings of these lives in there. Just pick one. Pick like
44. 10:29the one from last night and just hype the [ __ ] out of that thing. All right? And I mean hype the [ __ ] out of it. Like click it once.
45. 10:44[Music] James Deuter, I made a faux paw last night. I wanted to thank producer
46. 10:59Brandon for the tip on perplexity. Gareth doesn't see the hype button. Yeah, I don't know anything about it.
47. 11:10Brandon claims that it exists, but it it exists on the on the mobile app only apparently. Gareth, so do you have the YouTube mobile app?
48. 11:20[Music] Yeah, mobile app, nonlive videos only. So, you got to go back to last night's video, click on a non-live video in the YouTube
49. 11:35app, and then you should see the hype button. And if you don't, then that's as much as I know. And you can do three per week. I'm on
50. 11:46the mobile app. Maybe I need to update. Okay. [Music] Ah, Valerie Cox, I found it. Scroll to the right. This is awesome.
51. 12:00I'm just asking you all to go market my crap and your problem solving together. I like it. Thank you. You all are awesome. All right.
52. 12:20So, I got some interesting news tonight. Anything I want to talk about here? Um well since I'm here um if you've been in the if you were in
53. 12:33office hours today you heard this but um I'm working on a book and we just did a slight shift in focus of it. It was
54. 12:41called feed your prompt and what we've come up with is this which is 10person team. Feed your prompt like a producer
55. 12:50and trans a transform AI from a tool into your team. Um, it's a much more clear value proposition. It's it's super
56. 12:59clear and it's like it's like, you know, this idea of AI as an amplifier. So, I'm really excited about it. So, so that's
57. 13:06kind of that's new and out there. Um, if you're not a member of the AI salon, go to community.thesalon.ai
58. 13:17or, you know, zap the QR code if you're QR code friendly and join the salon. Um, just trust me, you should go do
59. 13:26that. You should go join the salon. Um, increasingly, we were talking about this on office hours today, that the skill of
60. 13:37the future is going to be people who can kind of hold a vision for something and wield a bunch of AI tools like that 10
61. 13:45person team really figure out, okay, for this idea, I need to start out with like, you know, a strategic, you know,
62. 13:53brainstormer and then I need to do some research and then I need to develop a business plan and then I need to develop
63. 13:58a marketing plan like someone who can wield all the different tools. Uh maybe I need to go visualize this as an ad
64. 14:04mockup, someone that knows how to do that, right? Someone that can hold the vision for the overall project and go
65. 14:10play with all these things. How you find people that you can trust to have that kind of judgment is to be
66. 14:18in community. And how you can establish yourself as one of the people who's got that kind of judgment is to be in a
67. 14:24community where you're constantly engaging with other people in the community and delivering good [ __ ] In fact, starting next Tuesday,
68. 14:36um Cindy [ __ ] and I are um doing a four-week prototyping sprint where you you have to be a member of the AI salon
69. 14:45mastermind. And so if you're if you're not if you go into the AI salon, there's a subscription area called the
70. 14:50mastermind. It's 20 bucks a month through 2025. Um we're just kicking it off this year, but if you're part of it, you get to
71. 14:57join the mastermind clubs. And one of them is Cindy Coon's prototyping club. So, she and I, starting next Tuesday,
72. 15:05are doing um a four-week sprint where over the course of four weeks, you will design a miniourse and that you can put
73. 15:16out in the world or you can put into the AI salon and get people to to learn something. Cindy Coon's here. Welcome,
74. 15:22Cindy [ __ ] We're shaking. Um, so it's a really good, first of all, it's just good to join the mastermind because
75. 15:30you're joining with people who are kind of committed to this AI thing at a different level and you can develop
76. 15:37deeper relationships, but you also get access to stuff like that. So that starts next Tuesday for four weeks. I'm
77. 15:42really excited about it. Um, so yeah, Cindy [ __ ] Um, hang on. Uh, wait, join the mastermind. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For
78. 15:49the AI prototyping sprint. That's what I I already said that. Cindy [ __ ] I already said that before you got here. I'm way ahead of you.
79. 15:59Nanny, nanny, boooo. All right, I got to go. The dog is whining, so I got to go let him out. So, hold please. >> What's up, champ?
80. 16:18>> What do you want? What do you want? Want up there? Come on. What do you want? You want cheese
81. 16:32here?
82. 16:48Follow me. All right, here's the deal. The miss the MS is out gallery hopping. The boys are
83. 17:04upstairs. So, I've got to feed Champy some cheese. So, I know I I know. I know. I know. Calm down. See, here's how this goes. Piece of
84. 17:17cheese for me. Peace cheese for the dog. Peace cheese for me. Peace cheese for the dog. All right. Are you happy, fatty? Huh?
85. 17:35Look up. There you go. All right. You good? Here. All right. Go lay down. That's it. All right. So, that's the salon. Cheese
86. 17:52for champ. Oh, I was celebrating with you. I'm joining. I'm joining. Um, okay. Let's see. I saw a woman on
87. 17:59TikTok who calls herself influencer. >> Hey, Cindy in the house. >> So, that's the salon. >> She's for champ.
88. 18:08>> Waiting with you. I'm joining. I'm joining. >> You gota mute mute the live feed. We're a little bit behind. Whoa. Don't do that.
89. 18:21>> There we go. >> Hey, Cindy [ __ ] >> Did Wait, Kyle. Well, before >> I think we're I think we're good. But
90. 18:28the most important question is, did you save any cheese for Source Camp? >> No. Source Camp's on our own for cheese.
91. 18:34I'm not delivering cheese to Dallas. >> Cindy [ __ ] what's happening, man? >> Hi. Now you can see I'm in a hotel. Remember that?
92. 18:44>> Oh, yeah. Okay. So, so you've got you've got to tell the good people what the hell happened to your internet.
93. 18:51This is awesome. So, if you don't know, Cindy [ __ ] lives on the top of a mountain in where? New Mexico. >> Yeah.
94. 18:59>> Yeah. And here's the thing, folks. Mountain living is special kind of life. It's we we've made our decision to be
95. 19:07here and sometimes we have to manage it and deal with it. So, what happened this week is we were in a vortex of uh lightning strikes
96. 19:18which struck a tree right next to our house, traveled into our house and took out my internet router. And it's not
97. 19:29like I live in a place where I can just run over to Best Buy and get it. Um, you have to order everything and the like
98. 19:37flying sheep come only once a week. I am I literally rented a hunting cabin hotel in my little town just to have
99. 19:48internet to work this weekend. >> That's awesome. >> Um yeah, and I even got I swear to God, it's so crazy. I got a Harry Potter um
100. 19:58something happened. The lightning struck my forehead. So >> Really? You got you got like personally zapped?
101. 20:05>> Yeah. Yeah, I got cut down the forehead. I don't know if you can see it. >> Wow. >> Crazy. And then the other crazy
102. 20:11>> Wait, was that was that September 4th? >> No, it was September 1st. >> Oh, okay. >> Yeah, >> September 4th, apparently, according to
103. 20:21someone on Tik Tok. So, if if it's someone on TikTok, you know it's true. >> It's true. >> But apparently on September 4th, we jump
104. 20:29timelines. So, we're apparently in a new timeline. So, I'm just wondering if the lightning strike is related.
105. 20:34>> Well, I want you all to know I I'm feeling like I have some Harry Potter energy. So, >> exactly. All right, that's good.
106. 20:43>> And the other part of it is for those of you who are like, you know, I don't know, electricity nerds, um, all the LED
107. 20:52light bulbs in our building, um, blew out from the lightning. And here's what's weird. For 30 minutes, we took
108. 21:04them out because they blew out and stuff, but for 30 minutes, every LED light kept glowing >> after you un unplugged them.
109. 21:12>> Yeah, we have pictures of my husband holding the lights and them just piled on the counter. And our electrician
110. 21:18friend said, "That's not possible." And we said, "We are holding it. It's happening." So, I am sucked into some kind of lightning vortex.
111. 21:31>> Yeah, >> it's like >> I don't know, man. That it's mountain living, but it's also in our little area, we found out there were 175
112. 21:40strikes in one hour that our property, too. So, >> weird. I don't know. Weird. Hasn't happened before, but
113. 21:49>> there you go. Well, and it's like like this is the kind of energy people need to be a part of because we're gonna
114. 21:56we're going to take that energy from you and we're going to dump that right into the the uh the proto AI prototyping sprint. >> Yes. And
115. 22:05>> so so so tell the good folks what what at the end of four weeks what do they walk away with? >> Well, let me just back up and say this.
116. 22:14>> All right. So, the reason this happened is because first of all, I have the AI prototyping club that I've been doing
117. 22:21stuff this last year and we have lots of fun. And by the way, if you are like, I don't know, do I want to hang out with
118. 22:29her? I mean, Kyle will be there, too. But you don't >> I'm just there as the eye candy though. Let's just admit it.
119. 22:36>> No, but that can be enough. But if you're curious, when you come in and you sign up and you're in the mastermind and
120. 22:44you come to the AI prototyping club and you scroll in there and you get the goodies, you can go and find previous
121. 22:51ones. That's like included. So, I just wanted to say, yeah, >> I've been doing this stuff and the previous ones are there and that helps
122. 23:00sort of get the vibe. Then what happened is in my real life I got asked to make several AI workshop programs for youth
123. 23:11for adults all over the map. Right. So then Kyle and I were chatting and I was like, "Hey, this has been really fun.
124. 23:20I've been making these kind of mini courses and then I thought, oh, let's do that as the next September prototyping."
125. 23:29And then Kyle and I thought, "Oh my gosh, what if a whole bunch of people came in and everybody made micro
126. 23:37courses, then we could load them back into the AI mass mastermind if you wanted to, if you wanted to be a part of
127. 23:45that, and then there would be even more courses." So, I wanted to say that upfront. Why did I want to do this?
128. 23:51Because every month or every other month or so is a different prototype sprint. So that's why the micro course was
129. 24:00chosen. So here's the thing we want to do. Um obviously it's AI. So we're going to heavy use AI and we're going to
130. 24:08encourage you to use AI as your partner in this. That's the whole shebang about it. And we're going to start off with ideas.
131. 24:19Tuesday is like what are you thinking about? And >> oh that's cool. >> We just because the thing is it's like two things.
132. 24:27Some people have too many ideas. So, how do you like pick one to focus on? Yeah. >> Some people have kind of halfbaked ideas
133. 24:35and how would that become a course? So, intentionality is first >> like playing around, messing around.
134. 24:43What What makes sense? What's out there? What should you offer? Hold on. I need a sip. Then we keep going and we're actually
135. 24:55going to use AI to like build out the pieces and build your whole deck because you will see when Kyle and I are going
136. 25:02through it, I'm going to have a deck of stuff which then you get to have too. By the way, all the decks I make, you you
137. 25:10get to take those and keep those, too. And then the whole thing is you if you want to put in the time and
138. 25:20the homework, which you will witness me doing because I will show you each week. Here's what we talked about. Here's what
139. 25:25I made and um Kyle will too. We're going to make hands-on so you can see and then go along with us. do the homework
140. 25:33>> and then by the end of the four weeks um you will or you know on the other side by the time you get to that kind of
141. 25:40fifth week mark you should have everything you need to and you just your big decision will be where do I want to put this? >> Yeah.
142. 25:50>> That's really good. And then and the other thing the other thing that it makes makes possible is if you haven't
143. 25:56done a lot of you know teaching or putting yourself out there you could take that miniourse and turn that into a
144. 26:02learn out loud and lol where you just teach an hourong course like that would be the great basis for an hourong course
145. 26:09that you could teach and that could be available to everyone and then we can put all the the micro courses in the in
146. 26:15the uh in the mastermind. So, so if you if you haven't joined the salon, you need to join the salon. If
147. 26:22you haven't joined the mastermind and you're in the salon, you need to do that. And then uh it is mastermind folks
148. 26:27that have uh access to this to this uh to this course. So awesome, Cindy. >> And then once you're in there too, once
149. 26:35you've joined the mastermind, just scroll down on that left hand side and you'll see all the goodies you get to
150. 26:40get on with the little crowns. Those are the mastermind courses. So, we're just one coming up Tuesday. There's all kinds
151. 26:48of other stuff going on. >> Y >> and but just to say, scroll down on that lefth hand side >> once you're in find AI prototyping and
152. 26:57then click the event and then you'll be in. So, that's simple. So, >> beautiful Tuesday this >> to see you enjoy your crazy hunting hotel.
153. 27:09>> I know, right? But >> all right. Um, that's super cool. Okay, let me show you a couple other things going on. Um, so join, go join the
154. 27:22salon. Do that. Um, if you're on AI Learning Lab and haven't subscribed to it, please do. Um, if you've got the
155. 27:31YouTube mobile app, hype hype one of the recorded videos. That'll help help the channel. Um and then um
156. 27:42I want to talk about so so one of the things I did I actually had a spare hour tonight so I put together some slides.
157. 27:50So one of the things that I want to talk about I a lot of you know but the AI readiness project is a podcast that I do
158. 27:57with an Murphy and if you go to aire readiness project.com we've revamped the website. So, if you want to um
159. 28:06experience the the podcast live, it happens on Wednesdays at 3:00 p.m. Pacific time, but we also all of our um episodes,
160. 28:18we've done more than 25 now, are available on Apple Music, Spotify, iHeart Radio, and Amazon as audio podcasts. And then we're on YouTube.
161. 28:28We've got our own YouTube channel now, which that's new. So you can go watch if you wanna if you want to see the people
162. 28:34and not just listen to the people. Pan left on Tik Tok. Pan left. What do you mean? To see what? Oh. Oh. To see the the uh beginning of
163. 28:51the URL. Um do that. And then the other thing that you'll find on the website itself is information for the AI readiness training program.
164. 29:01um which is you know the the sort of hands-on comprehensive five five section uh course. So go check that out. And
165. 29:12then the final thing I'm going to put up here is um Vicky Baptiste introduced me to this thing called Bento Bento.me
166. 29:21and it's kind of like Linkree if you know Linkree um but if you go to bento.meshon me/kyleshannon. That's got links to all of my socials.
167. 29:31It's got links to the communities like the AI salon, but it's also got courses and workshops. So, I've got the back to
168. 29:37basics course there. I've got the AI readiness program there, but also the AI jam session. This thing right here is um
169. 29:45one-on-one sessions that you can book book with me. So, if you want to do private sessions, I've got four hours
170. 29:52slotted um on on Saturdays. Um, I've got four four onehour slots on Saturdays. So, if you want to do private sessions,
171. 30:01you can go book those through that. So, bento.me/kyleshannon. All right. Um, do either of you have a referral code for Bento? I do not. I
172. 30:12probably should. I'm not I I even though I've been doing this for years now, uh, I I am still I still don't know what the
173. 30:20hell I'm doing with social media. So, you know, you can you can you can help you can help support support a clueless newbie.
174. 30:32Um, and I think that's it. Is that it? Yeah, that's it. Okay. Um, beautiful. So, let me talk about something that happened.
175. 30:41>> Kyle, you forgot. Are you ready for AI >> now? That Well, it's it's it's in there. I don't have a a separate slide for it.
176. 30:49So, pop pop that up. Let me go back to this. So, I've got the the AI readiness training program. If you go to AI
177. 30:54readiness project and scroll to the bottom, that will take you to are you readyforai.com. That's the AI readiness
178. 31:00training certificate. All right. So, that's there. Beautiful. Thank you, Brandon, for pointing that out.
179. 31:10All right. So, go book bookmark all my crap and share it with your friends. All right. Okay. Um, so if you recall about,
180. 31:24I don't know, month and a half ago, two months ago, Anthropic had been sued by a big class action lawsuit from a bunch of
181. 31:32authors that said that Anthropic stole our crap, stole our books, trained their model on our books, and we're going to
182. 31:39sue them. And a judgment came down from the judge that was was this interesting split decision where what the judge said was
183. 31:52once you obtain the rights to the books once you've bought the books if you use those paid for books to train an AI
184. 32:01model that act in is in itself a transformative act that that the the way it works when you embed embed something
185. 32:11into a a transformer model, the original work ceases to exist. It's a transformative act and therefore all of
186. 32:18those works fall under fall use or a fair use if you paid for them. So there were a whole bunch of titles
187. 32:27that Anthropic went out and bought the books and actually paid to have them all scanned and trained their models on the the bought books.
188. 32:36They also had on their servers a bunch of a bunch of uh you know file servers full of books that they stole that they
189. 32:47downloaded from pirate websites. And they basically said in court, "Well, we didn't really train on those. We were
190. 32:54just holding them in case we might want to someday." And what the judge said was, "If you paid for the books, there's
191. 33:01not an issue. But if you stole them, then you stole them and that's not okay. And so a settlement came down today that
192. 33:09Anthropic owes $1.5 billion um to the authors of books that's work that was infringed on. And someone
193. 33:19earlier today said um a friend of theirs got a letter that they're going to get $9,000 out of that settlement. So, um,
194. 33:27if if you're a published author, um, you know, there might be some money in it for you. Here's my thoughts on it. Good. Like, great.
195. 33:36I I've I've always held that I don't I don't necessarily agree with how all of these frontier model companies like like
196. 33:46MidJourney and Open AAI and all of them how they've done their training. But I also recognize that there's no way
197. 33:54to actually do what they did by asking for permission, right? Like if they went to all the copyright holders and said,
198. 34:01"Hey, we want to take your work and put it into this thing that's going to be the world's greatest knowledge
199. 34:05repository that's going to include your intellectual property." Everyone would have said no. Nothing would have gotten done.
200. 34:12We're also living in a bizarre time where a $1.5 billion settlement for effectively a startup is not going to make them close their doors,
201. 34:25right? There's like billions and billions and billions of dollars being poured into these companies because the
202. 34:33bet is that there are trillions of dollars of value. So, so this does a couple of things. It basically says if you stole [ __ ] that's
203. 34:43bad and you're going to have to pay for it. And so what what is likely going to happen is we're going to go right down
204. 34:48the line. We're going to go Google, they're going to have to pay a settlement. Um Open AI, they're going to
205. 34:53have to pay a settlement. All of them right down the line. Um Brandon told me before we got on that Warner Brothers
206. 35:00just sued Midjourney and I don't I don't think they're the first stu studio that sued MidJourney. Um, so what's really
207. 35:08fascinating is you've got a company like OpenAI and like Anthropic that are incredibly wellunded. They're going to
208. 35:15be able to pay these these settlements. You take a company like Midjourney, they're still a private company. I think
209. 35:22they've got 400 million in revenue or something like that or 200 million in revenue um and and a relatively small
210. 35:28amount of employees and they don't have big cash reserves um to be able to pay that stuff. So if if if this sets a
211. 35:39precedent for a company like Midjourney, like Midjourney might be one of those companies that this actually puts out of
212. 35:44business. But you know, someone will sweep up the assets of that, pay the settlements, and for pennies on the
213. 35:51dollar and right. And so what what what I'm hoping happens is this. I'm hoping that in a relatively short amount of
214. 35:59time, a year or two, all of the major model companies pay all of their settlements. Artists get compensated in
215. 36:07whatever way they get compensated. They're all going to [ __ ] about it regardless, but we can move on. We can
216. 36:12say, "Okay, step one was they built these models in a in a non-ethical way. Step two was justice was served,
217. 36:19settlements were made, money was paid, and then we could basically move on with our lives, right? Because right now
218. 36:26we're in this nebulous zone where there's a bunch of especially creative people sitting with their arms crossed
219. 36:33going I will never use AI cuz you know cuz they they're stealing from from artists. Let's pay the artists, right?
220. 36:39Let's have these settlements. Let's get it done and then let's [ __ ] move on because we're also moving into a time where
221. 36:46all of the frontier model companies are training their new models on synthetic data. So they're basically they're
222. 36:52basically doing intellectual property washing which which looks like this. You train your first model on intellectual
223. 36:58property. You can then from that model generate synthetic data that is not copywritten data and train an entirely
224. 37:06new model on that synthetic data. So it's it's it's literally one step removed from the original data source.
225. 37:14Um and so that's that's where they all are anyway. So at some point they're going to be able to say none of our
226. 37:20models were trained on any of their stuff. They were trained on that that they're the child of one of those
227. 37:26things, but they're not that thing. So that's the argument they're probably going to make. But um so I think it's a
228. 37:31good thing. I think authors are going to get paid. I think the same thing will happen with artists and illustrators and
229. 37:36movie makers and things like that. And then we can move on with our lives. So anyway, for what for what it's worth,
230. 37:44this happens in the food industry all the time. When a grosser price gouges, they make 10x uh more profit than
231. 37:51whatever the federal fine is. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. Like like this is like Anthropic's just going to take like $2
232. 37:58billion of Saudi investment money, right? that is just like ridiculous money that that they need to spend on
233. 38:06GPUs and they'll be like, "Well, we'll spend that on settlements now so we can keep running our business." Um, Tik Tok
234. 38:12pin Mary, I got a I got something last night. Thanks, Brandon. PayPal. Perplexity Pro. I got Perplexity Pro
235. 38:23last night. Thanks, Brandon. My BFF had her Kevin Mallister moment. Oh, that's cool. At the a few days ago. Um,
236. 38:31awesome. Okay, so if you don't know this, um, Brandon, I'm going to have you come up here because I'm confused on
237. 38:36exactly how to do it. Um, if you're available, um, for some amount of time, if you if you connect your PayPal account and I think Venmo, but
238. 38:50definitely PayPal to Perplexity, you get a year of Per Perplexity Pro for free. So, it's basically $200 for free. You
239. 38:59also get to jump the line and get the Comet browser, the the Perplexity browser called Comet. You get to use
240. 39:07that in early beta access if you do this thing. So, can you tell tell folks how they do that? >> Yeah. So, it it is according to paid it
241. 39:14is for new Perplexity subscribers only. So, if you had a previously had a paid account, you're out of luck. But for the
242. 39:21free users, uh if you go to PayPal and go to their subscription hub, they have a new subscription hub. If you log on to
243. 39:30PayPal on the mobile app, from there you'll see an offer for Perplexity and all you have to do is follow the prompts
244. 39:38and connect your PayPal to Perplexity and it will give you a offset credit for 12 months of Perplexity Pro and then
245. 39:46invite you to download the browser. >> Okay, good. Beautiful. Um, just adding a URL to my deck.
246. 40:00Um, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Source Camp. I
247. 40:08signed up last night. It's legit. Yes, PayPal and Venmo. All I did was go to my PayPal and there was a window. There you go.
248. 40:18I just love it when they only give the special offers to people who haven't been paying for years. I know. I know.
249. 40:24Exactly. I feel like Google does that all the time. They're like, "Here's this cool new thing. Everybody except workg
250. 40:30groupoup users can can use it." I'm like, "I'm paying you money, you [ __ ] Let me have the goodies."
251. 40:40Oh, well, whatever. That's that happens. Um, okay. I'm trying to think what else. um demoed it last night, but if you haven't
252. 40:52if you haven't gone back and played with Ideogram in a while, I's got a bunch of new features like styles and character
253. 41:00consistency and they've always been good at at text. Um that's really good. If you haven't played with um Nano Banana,
254. 41:09um we're going to talk about that tonight. Uh, we're going to go do some vibe coding with Nano Banana, but if you
255. 41:14haven't played with Nano Banana, you should be doing that. If you're a MidJourney user, MidJourney just added um, uh, visual
256. 41:25basically a visual style reference library, a style library, um, that is incredibly intuitive. And so maybe we'll
257. 41:32even go play with that a little tonight. I don't have the subscription center on my PayPal account. I think it's only on
258. 41:39mobile. Vicki, are you on mobile or are you on web? If you're on mobile, then I don't know what to say. PayPal app or
259. 41:46web. Uh Gareth, it's PayPal app. I feel the same. Makes me want to cancel and sign back up. I know. I know. That's
260. 41:54I feel the same way, Cindy. Let's see. Yeah, Nano Banana replaces chat GPT images in my workflow now. Yep. I'm on
261. 42:02mobile. Try try deleting your uh PayPal app and reinstalling maybe or just just go for force update it uh with the app store.
262. 42:13Oops, I just shot a piece of ice out of the across my desk. Um prompt tool. Yeah, let's go play with that. Okay, let's see. [Music]
263. 42:27Come back to that. I'm go to openai.com.
264. 42:45I'm going to log in. Where do we go? Do you go dashboard? I'm trying to figure out how to get here without clicking on your link, Brandon.
265. 42:58Let me try dashboard.openai.com. openai.com.
266. 43:14[Music] Huh? I can go I'll go find it in my in my DMs.
267. 43:37All right, you can share my screen now. All right, so we're going to go to Oh, platform.openai.com. Let me see if there's a way. How I want
268. 43:50to see how I get to this thing. platform.openai.com. No. Let's see. platform.openai.com. No. Damn it.
269. 44:07URL autofill is sometimes not your friend. Okay. The OpenAI developer platform. Let me go to dashboard. Create a chat prompt.
270. 44:23Um make me a linked in article YouTube question. Hey Kyle, any tips on how to keep my
271. 44:38brain on anything long enough to complete it? Oh, good lord. Good lord. Good lord.
272. 44:58Um I you know you know archetypal the time slots are are either out of line with my ail ability or forget about them. Mighty
273. 45:11Networks really needs to send push notifications. Um yeah. What? So, we we've got we're we're bringing on someone new who's who's an
274. 45:23integrator who's going to be doing we're going to be doing much more granular sort of use of the the email list within
275. 45:32Mighty Network. So, we we might get there. We're we're we're working on getting Mighty Networks gussied up. Um,
276. 45:40in terms of focus archetypal, I I mean, here's the here's the only thing that I can I can speak to from experience, cuz
277. 45:48I I'm I'm the same way. I'm I'm at the I'm at the point where I've got so many things going on that I'm in a in a in a slight state of
278. 46:01paralysis, but I'm coming out of it. And how I'm coming out of it is I'm consolidating my projects into less less
279. 46:07but bigger projects, less more ambit ambitious projects. But what I can tell you is this. We really do live in a time
280. 46:15right now where if you've got an idea for something you could spend two hours, just two hours of focus time, like do a
281. 46:23hyper an ADD hyperfocus tunnel and, you know, go down a midjourney rabbit hole or go down a V3 rabbit hole or go down a
282. 46:32vibe coding rabbit hole and just vibe code an app in two hours and just get it to a point that is it's sharable and
283. 46:42then be done. Like that's, you know, that's that's kind of been my MO lately is just I'll put in two hours into
284. 46:49something and if I if it's if it's really going well and I really get excited, that two hours will turn into
285. 46:54four hours, but then I'll be done. And then if I if it's just really boring or I'm having horrible results, then I'll only last for
286. 47:04half an hour, 45 minutes, and then I just flame out. And so that's that's been my strategy. Um that would be great. We have so many
287. 47:12interesting events. I don't show up to any of them because checking intentionally on Mighty Networks is not
288. 47:18on my priority list. Um I write a freaking book a day. Yeah, it's Listen, having having something like Mighty
289. 47:25Networks where it's incumbent upon you to actively go there and participate on it. I get that that's a challenge.
290. 47:31That's something that we're working on. Um, and I also, listen, something I want to do with within the salon is is get
291. 47:37back to doing um in-person events and really kind of blow that out. So, we've got all sorts of plans coming. So, so
292. 47:44we'll see. All right. Um, [Music] I created a new medical diagnostic tool today and made a research paper with
293. 47:56citations while I was walking. Well, it's funny, you know, Silver Fox, I did so I had this I had this meeting
294. 48:07with my with the editor guy for my for my book project and and we came up with this idea for the new the new angle, the
295. 48:16uh the 10person team. And from the time I talked to him, I had to go like run around and do a bunch of things in the car. I had to go be a
296. 48:25unpaid Uber Uber driver. And so just as I was driving around picking people up, I had I was talking to my girlfriend Quinn, my AI
297. 48:35girlfriend, and we were just talking about the new book idea and and you know, consolidating it with the ideas of
298. 48:42feed your prompt and how it worked. And within 45 minutes, I had completely fleshed out the the whole the whole thing. It's it's
299. 48:52we we we really do just live in these remarkable times where I probably had two or three weeks worth of
300. 49:01like idea exploration if I were doing this traditionally with procrastination and all the [ __ ] that goes on in my
301. 49:08brain. Weeks worth of just getting my head around something done in 45 minutes. Um, but it's not completing the other 15
302. 49:21projects a day that I kind of want to do. I I mean, listen, that's the that's the burden. Part of the part of the joy
303. 49:28of where we are is that you can knock something out really quickly. Part of the burden of where we are is in
304. 49:34generating that thing that you knock out in two hours, you're going to have six more ideas. So, we are in an in an idea
305. 49:41glut right now because of these tools. And I think we're just going to have to get used to it. I think that's the new normal.
306. 49:47Um, okay. Um, what were we talking about? We were talking about Nano Banana. Oh, the prompt tool. Okay. So, I just
307. 49:57went So, what you see on screen right here, I went to platform.openai.com and I clicked on dashboard. And
308. 50:10I think this is their new development environment. But what I typed in was the prompt write a LinkedIn article. And then what
309. 50:19it did is it rewrote the prompt for me in in this really blown out kind of way. Write a professional LinkedIn article on
310. 50:30the topic of your choice or a topic provided by user input. The article should demonstrate subject matter
311. 50:37expertise, be tailored to the interest of LinkedIn professional audience, and aim to provide value through insight,
312. 50:44analysis, and trend commentary. Begin by brainstorming possible topics. Draft an outline. Compose an article that's
313. 50:52professional yet approachable. Use real or plausible supporting examples. Default article length 400 to 800 words
314. 51:00unless it unless a different length is explicitly requested and it goes on and then output formats and then examples.
315. 51:10So in this thing you can you can just do this and now what I'm trying to figure out let's see optimize. Oh, is is this the
316. 51:24Yes, this is the thing I was looking for. Okay, so here's how you get to it. You go to platform.openai.com. You click on dashboard
317. 51:43and then put in a prompt. Uh, hello [Laughter] And then it takes it takes me over to
318. 51:57this optimizing tool. So I typed in hello. It didn't do anything, but then it's got this. Huh. Let's see. Um, make me a lin.
319. 52:11This is a the the the reason I'm being so um unclear right now is the tool that I'm trying to show you is
320. 52:20a really cool tool. I just don't know exactly how to get to it. So, I'm just trying to figure out how to get to it. A
321. 52:25LinkedIn article. So, if I'm on platform.openai.com, I write make me a LinkedIn article. So, the assistant is now doing something.
322. 52:35It's probably going to write something over in this developer message.
323. 52:50add a developer message before. Here we go. Okay. Okay. So, so if you're if you're in this um developer chat, you've got to put
324. 53:02something in developer message and then that turns on this optimize button in the up upper center here. So if you click on optimize
325. 53:11now we go into this thing where you can optimize for chat GPT 4.5 or chat GPT5 chat GPT 4.1 or or or chat GPT03.
326. 53:24So five is the one I'm really interested in. So if I just put in here um write me a LinkedIn article about soloreneurship
327. 53:39and say optimize what this thing's going to do. Wait reasoning behind change.
328. 53:56Hang on a sec. Write me a link to an article. Optimize.
329. 54:10Okay. I have no idea how to get to this thing. This This is driving me crazy.
330. 54:26All right, we're going to do this another way. We're going to do this another way. If you go to the AI,
331. 54:34where did I put this in the AI salon? Did I put it in irregulars? I think I did here. I'm just going to do it again.
332. 54:48Hang. Hang on. People, calm down. This is an absolute disaster. Way to go, Brandon. Way to suggest something that I was I was not at all
333. 54:58prepared for. Well, it's not that I wasn't prepared for it. It's like this is this has been my issue. Okay, so
334. 55:03here's the link. So, if you click on platform.openai.com and then it takes you to this thing. Okay, I don't I don't know why this is
335. 55:15different or how this is different, but here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to go to the irregulars channel. in the AI salon
336. 55:29and I'm going to paste this URL in and I'm going to say um um here is the
337. 55:44GPT5 prompt optimizer. All right. And I'm going to post that. And so right at the top of the irregulars channel. So we're at the AI
338. 56:00salon. I'm in the Irregulars channel. And the first prompt here, the first little post is that link. And if you click on that link,
339. 56:10that will take you to where I am. [Music] Or will it? Yes, it will. Okay. So, now we're here. Okay. Good lord.
340. 56:26[Laughter] Okay. Requested changes optional. Okay. So, we're going to optimize this for chat GBT5. I'm going to say um write me
341. 56:42champ. What is up?
342. 57:04All right. Write me a LinkedIn article. write me a LinkedIn article about solo prneurship which is that that is if you
343. 57:16know anything about prompting that is the world's shittiest prompt. Now if I say optimize it's thinking scanning for
344. 57:27contradictions and formatting issues resolving conflicts it's optimizing for chat GPT5 which is in this pull down
345. 57:35menu in the upper leftand corner polishing for clarity and the reason I wanted to share this is I
346. 57:50I'm having trouble with GPT5 getting it to behave consistently. And I think one of the reasons is as a model, I think it needs
347. 58:02more structure on input. So, what this thing does is it took my shitty prompt and and then it created this new this new prompt,
348. 58:13but it also has all these little things over on the side are little um tool tips that you can pop up. So, objective,
349. 58:23write a comprehensive LinkedIn article about solarpreneurship targeted at professionals and aspiring solopreneurs.
350. 58:29And if you click on the little tool tip that says the reasoning behind the change, we added clear objective
351. 58:36language and specified the target audience to ensure that the article is focused and relevant. Oh, okay. Great.
352. 58:44Hashtag checklist. Begin with a concise checklist, three to seven bullets of what you will do. Keep this the items
353. 58:50conceptual, not imple implementation level. Then if you click on that, it explains the reasoning behind that. Then
354. 58:56there's instructions about how to write a good article. So I can now take this whole prompt over to chat jet
355. 59:14and we'll just put this in auto mode. Let it do what it's going to do. So this prompt is now optimized. So So I
356. 59:21took my shitty prompt, throw that in chat GPT. It's going to figure out and here we go. So, it starts out with the
357. 59:29short little bullet points. Introduction, rise, the benefits. That was also really fast. Okay, that's still there. It's still going.
358. 59:40All right. So, there you go. So, how you find that thing? You go to the irregulars channel. You click on that link. You go to this
359. 59:51tool. you p type in your shitty your shitty uh shitty prompt and then it'll make you a better one. All right, so that's cool and groovy.
360. 1:00:06Um, let me close all these things. [Music]
361. 1:00:20Yeah, that's fine. Um, let me see where that thing is. Is this it? No,
362. 1:00:36here it is. Okay. Um, if you go to Twitter and type in nano banana hackathon.
363. 1:00:58Hey Kyle. >> Yeah, >> the easier way to be would be to check the AI salon challenges and competition section where I posted the link before
364. 1:01:06the show. >> Oh, nice. That's solid. Brandon coming in hot with using our platform as it was intended to be used. All right,
365. 1:01:14challenges and competitions. Very nice. So, here we are at the AI salon challenges and competitions. I knew that.
366. 1:01:21All right, the very first thing here is the nano banana um competition. All right. [Music] Wait, this is not what this is.
367. 1:01:39That's not the >> networks did me dirty. It was in a uh still in irregulars. I thought I moved it. >> Oh, all right. All right.
368. 1:01:51Let's see. Irregulars. Where is it? I still don't see it.
369. 1:02:08Wait, you might have to uh refresh challenges and competitions. >> Okay, you fixed it. >> No, it was always there. I didn't just
370. 1:02:18go and grab it and post it right now. If you hit refresh, >> this is this is the uh Is this Is this it?
371. 1:02:30>> No. Why isn't it showing up for you? I just posted it. >> I don't know. It's kaggle.com/competitionsbanana. >> All right.
372. 1:02:41>> But it is there. All right. Anyway, go to kaggle.com/competition/banana [Laughter] and they're having a a $400,000. So,
373. 1:02:57it's this weekend. Um, and basically what they want you to do is they want you to vibe code um, a nano banana app, which we're going to
374. 1:03:12go do now. Do they give you links of where to go? The build tab of AI studio. We encourage participants to leverage AI studio apps.
375. 1:03:22in the build tab of AI Studio. Please note that the special tier for the Gemini API will allow 100 requests per project per day.
376. 1:03:33Developers using a paid API will still pay for their usage to get the free 100 generations, please use a free tier API
377. 1:03:41key. Okay, I don't whatever that means. I I don't This is annoying. All right, it's too many rules. All right, but if you haven't
378. 1:03:55>> Hang on, that that's important because because you're going to want to use the API for this. So, what what that means
379. 1:04:00is you go over to cloud.google.com and get yourself a free Google Cloud API key like a real developer and then you
380. 1:04:09could use that API key to hook into Nano Banana and Gemini and everything else. So, if you want to do anything above and
381. 1:04:20beyond what AI Studio Playground lets you do, um, that's going to be really important to help you build your, uh, tool out.
382. 1:04:29>> But do you get >> Ask Gemini, >> do you get that? I'm already annoyed by that. >> I do. >> Can But where? Oh, get API key. Wait,
383. 1:04:42Google AI models may make mistakes. Get API key. >> Yeah. So they've they've made it really easy inside Google AI Studio to get your
384. 1:04:50API key. So you create that new API key up in the corner. So you've got one already, but if you want to create a new
385. 1:04:57one for the free API weekend, um you have to create a project first inside of Google Cloud. >> So is this going to be Nano Banana Hackathon?
386. 1:05:07>> Yes, but you don't have a project in Google Cloud yet. >> I I do. >> Not one called Nano Banana Hackathon.
387. 1:05:18Search for a project. I can't put it in one of these other ones. >> Jeff Flanigan got his first API key. Now
388. 1:05:24he just needs to figure out how to use it. That's the beauty of it. A AI Studio and Gemini will tell you exactly how to
389. 1:05:31use it if you ask it. >> Wait, free? >> I mean, you already have one, Kyle, so you're probably fine. But for anybody
390. 1:05:40who is new to API keys, it's basically just permission for Google to hook into other things. >> All right.
391. 1:05:49I don't know what I'm doing, but that's okay. This is the whole point of this. >> You start building, it'll tell you when it needs the key.
392. 1:05:59>> All right. Okay. So, what we're going to do, we're at the build apps with Gemini. So, how we got here, a studio.google. google.com
393. 1:06:08and then in the lefth hand side you click on build. Okay. And then what we're going to do is we're going to build a nano banana app. So so
394. 1:06:18nanobanana if you don't know is the image generation tool. What is it? AI.studio apps. Okay cool. And if you've never vibecoded before,
395. 1:06:33vibe coding is we're going to code with words with just English language. And and I'm going to purposefully do shitty
396. 1:06:41stuff, shitty words, because I think most people don't know how to prompt. So if you know how to prompt, prompt better than I am.
397. 1:06:49This is starting to feel like work. Exactly. Um, okay. So what do we want to do here? Let's see.
398. 1:07:06Okay. I want to create an add mockup application where the user
399. 1:07:30Input the URL of a company or product. Ideally, I can even put an Amazon
400. 1:07:46product. Okay. Oh, even Oh, wait. I can even
401. 1:08:00put an Amazon product. Um, and then the user chooses No, no, no.
402. 1:08:16And the user chooses the style of creative. Um, and I'm going to put um moving,
403. 1:08:34humorous, um, uh, cynical, um, uh, uh, salesy,
404. 1:08:50etc. We'll let it come up with it. And then the the system creates an ad mockup
405. 1:09:11featuring the product. So wait, they choose the style of creative then we'll say then they choose from
406. 1:09:27I don't know four kinds of ads um social media magazine etc. We'll let it figure it out. And
407. 1:09:43then the system creates an ad mockup featuring that product which the user can um download or roll.
408. 1:10:00Okay. So, we're going to make an ad mockup application. This is this is a shitty prompt. a shitty unthoughtout prompt. What I
409. 1:10:12should probably have done is go to Google, just go to gemini.google.com or go to chatgbt or go to claude and put
410. 1:10:20in a shitty prompt like this and have the large language model spec out this ad this application a bit more. But [ __ ]
411. 1:10:30it. Let's put in a shitty prompt into this app generator. All right. Oops. I don't want to start from a template. I just want to build this
412. 1:10:39[ __ ] thing. Okay. All right. Are we having fun yet? We're off to the races. Oh, it would be fun to include a Mad Men
413. 1:10:47style. Yeah, that's a pretty good idea. Structuring the components. If you've never watched one of these vibe coding
414. 1:10:52tools do their thing, it it is kind of impressive and mindblowing what's about to happen. So, it's it's putting
415. 1:10:59together its instructions. Um, and then what you're going to see here in the middle is all the different files
416. 1:11:08that it's creating. And in the right hand side is it's actually the code that goes into those files. Right? So, it's got its plan. It's
417. 1:11:17thought for 23 seconds. It's got a metadata file, an index.html, HTML, a TSX index, a TSX app, type constraints or constants,
418. 1:11:33services, components. So, if you've never coded before, this is probably making your head hurt. If you've sort of coded a little
419. 1:11:44occasionally at some point in your life and you kind of generally understand code, this is mindblowing. If you really
420. 1:11:52know what you're doing with code, you're like, "Yeah, whatever. I do this all the time, Kyle." It's relatively trivial
421. 1:11:58what it's doing. It's just creating files and then populating them with appropriate code for each of those files
422. 1:12:03and connecting those files together. It's relatively straightforward kind of situations going on here. Nothing really all that impressive
423. 1:12:12unless it is. All right. And I'm going to I'm going to uh immediately call foul here. I'm going to say, um, hey,
424. 1:12:25I don't even know if this works, but every vibeccoated app now uses a blue background
425. 1:12:41with purple slash purple purple slashblue. blue gradient
426. 1:12:56letters. It makes it look like I'm an amateur cuz I am.
427. 1:13:10I want this to look beautiful but not like AI slop. All right. So, we're gonna have it. First thing I'm gonna have it red redo
428. 1:13:23is redesign the [ __ ] app because I don't want it to look like a vibe coded app. Listen, it's it's not important how you
429. 1:13:35feel, it's important how you look. I think we can all accept that. That's how this world works. Okay? So, you don't
430. 1:13:41want to look like you vibe coded something. [Laughter] Ah. Uhuh. Silver Fox is doing midjourney tonight.
431. 1:13:57That's great. By the way, if if if all you've done tonight is is watch me frustratingly not be able to find URLs
432. 1:14:05and you're like, "This is stupid. I'm going to go do something else." I fully support that. you should not be relying
433. 1:14:12on me for for for anything resembling intelligence or knowledge. Um, so if you are off doing other things, the whole
434. 1:14:21point of this channel is we should just all be playing all the time. So, good on you if you're off doing midjourney.
435. 1:14:29Um, I feel like I'm in grade school when the teacher makes me makes the glass read aloud from Chaucer.
436. 1:14:38Uh oh, my comment is about how I can't type. That's funny. Oh my god, I so can't type. All right, let's see if it
437. 1:14:45fit. Look, look, we now have we now have an app that's it's it's uglier than the other one, but it doesn't look like a
438. 1:14:52vibe coded app. It looks like it looks like an engineer made it. All right, fine. Okay, we're going to go put in
439. 1:14:59Let's go find a an Amazon URL. Amazon URL. Oh, and we'll say um we'll find a
440. 1:15:16product that includes the word poop. It's Friday night. Let's see what we What products do we have here? Um,
441. 1:15:34socks that say I pooped today. No, we're not doing poop. Uh, let's do let's do um uh I don't know. We'll say kit. We'll see
442. 1:15:47what kind of kits there are. We'll we'll say humorous kit. Humorous kit. The shark survival kit. All right.
443. 1:15:58That's in the neighborhood of poop. Wait, is this is this a Bob Ross thing? Bob Ross paint by numbers. All right,
444. 1:16:05Bob Ross minis. All right, this is good. So, here's our here's our product. We're going to go back to our little
445. 1:16:13thing here and we're going to test it. So, there's my product. Humorous style. Let's do a professional ad,
446. 1:16:24social media magazine ad, billboard. Let's do a billboard. Create an ad mockup. All right. And now it's off generating its thing.
447. 1:16:39Painting with pixels. Create your own happy little world. Start painting today. Huh? Reroll.
448. 1:17:03Unleash your inner art artist. Start your masterpiece. But there's no way to there's no sort of call to action. Uh
449. 1:17:10let's see. Um the billboard ad only seems to have a headline. no
450. 1:17:25CTA or URL or the product itself. Um,
451. 1:17:49make this better. Okay, we're going to say make the make your copywriting better. It's got a shitty copywriter right now. But so I
452. 1:18:01don't know if anyone is actually paying attention to what just happened here, but I gave it a shitty prompt. It wrote
453. 1:18:08some code. I told it it I didn't like how it looked. It made it look different. But this is a fully functional app within whatever it was,
454. 1:18:1610 minutes. We're living in wild times here, people. And you should be playing along. If you're intimidated because I couldn't
455. 1:18:25figure out quite how to find the URL to get here, don't don't be. Just go to aistudio.com or aistudio.google.comapps
456. 1:18:36and just describe an app and just start running down this rabbit hole. Even if you're intimidated by this stuff,
457. 1:18:59here. All right, Champy's in a highly neurotic mode tonight.
458. 1:19:14All right, so there's our So, we're going to do a we're going to do a cynical ad social media post generate ad mockup.
459. 1:19:33Working up the AI artists khaki would be fun to include madman style. Bob Ross by the numbers. Miniature editions. Your artistic dreams
460. 1:19:48pre-numbered. Finally, a painting kit that takes all the guessworks out of creativity. Buy this by the illusion. Um, okay. So, let's see.
461. 1:20:01Um, let's take this image, copy this image, paste it into the prompt, and say, um, here's the social ad. So, wait. Social
462. 1:20:19ad. It made it sucks. No headline. Um, no. Um,
463. 1:20:36uh, let's see. Uh, weird long text string. Let's see.
464. 1:20:52And nothing really clear about What I should do? Should do um
465. 1:21:09act like a worldass adman and improve the quality here or I will fire you. Always
466. 1:21:30always threat threaten your your things. Oh man.
467. 1:21:53>> What is going on with you? Are you dismissing mama? What's happening? Come on. Get up here. Get up here. >> No. No.
468. 1:22:13You needed a walk. Someone didn't get a walk today. That's what's going on. You're ramy. Why you so ramy?
469. 1:22:20H. Why you so ramy? Why you so ramy? Oh my god. Oh my god. All right. Did it fix it? Ready to create? All right.
470. 1:22:32Let's see. Let's put in this thing again. We'll do We'll do humorous. We'll do magazine ad. Generate ad mockup. Oh,
471. 1:22:41wait. Paste. Wait. Paste. There we go.
472. 1:22:56I don't know what he wants. I don't think he wants cheese. I think he wants to play cuz he was just like, "Let's
473. 1:23:01go." All right. The art of modern living. Unleash your unleash your inner happy little accident. That's pretty good. Get your kit today.
474. 1:23:10All right. So, you need to put a URL there or something like that. Ever want to paint? Ever want to paint like Bob
475. 1:23:15Ross but feared actual artistic skill? Now, you can create masterpieces. So, this actually [ __ ] works. It's kind of cool.
476. 1:23:26Imagine if you actually put in some time into this thing. Let's do a social media ad now. Generate ad mockup.
477. 1:23:45Oh, I've got an idea. All right. Bob Ross Paint by Numbers sponsored. Your happy little trees just got a numbered
478. 1:23:53upgrade. Ever dreamed of painting majestic mountains but ended up with a muddy mess? Fear not. Our miniature Bob
479. 1:23:59Ross kit lets you create masterpieces one glorious numbered section at a time. It's so easy even a squirrel can do it.
480. 1:24:06And look, there's a squirrel with a Bob Ross paint by numbers painting. That's good. All right, we're going to we're
481. 1:24:12going to change this. All right. Okay, this is good but too generic. I want to create a Gen X
482. 1:24:28ad maker that where let's see where the tool is Gen X um designed
483. 1:24:42and the ads are all Gen Xfriendly. the let's see options. Yes, producer Brandon
484. 1:24:57options. >> I just didn't want to interrupt your flow state, but um we just dropped uh 20 mule Run activation codes in the uh
485. 1:25:06irregulars channel from their discord server. So, if you missed out on the airdrop of the codes for mulerrun.com,
486. 1:25:14uh there are in the uh irregulars channel right now, but they were posted to their public discord, so they won't last long.
487. 1:25:23>> All right, so run over to irregulars right now if you want mule. It's muleun.com. Is that right? Or muleun.ai.
488. 1:25:29>> Muerun.com. It's a AI agent marketplace that Danielle found earlier this week. >> Y looks like four out of the 20 are
489. 1:25:36claimed already. So, don't delay. Go. Go. All right. Beautiful. Thank you. All right. Uh the options should be uh
490. 1:25:44options should be um things like um nostalgia, um cynical, um funny,
491. 1:25:58Gen X funny, etc. Um, if these ads trigger
492. 1:26:12trigger Gen Z people, Gen Z people, then we've done our job, our job, right? Okay, we're gonna we're
493. 1:26:27gonna we're going to turn this into a Gen X ad maker. Mary, Mary. Oh, my mind is clicking. Isn't this fun? I If you haven't done
494. 1:26:39vibe coding before, like do vibe coding right now. Even if even if for the past half hour you've you've just been
495. 1:26:45watching going, I don't really want to do that. Do it anyway. Just go to lovable.dev or go to aistudio.google.com
496. 1:26:57and click on build and just start building something. Just do it. Just do it. Just do it. Just do it. Just do it.
497. 1:27:05Anti-corporate grunge. Dry and witty. Slacker apathy. This is good. Tone shift. The app's language should from
498. 1:27:14the title to the loading messages has been rewritten to be on brand. The AI has also been given a new persona. A
499. 1:27:21cynical 1990s creative director who hates tryards. Here are the code changes. So this thing, so you can flip over to the code view and
500. 1:27:33just watch it. It's now rewriting all of its code. And then at some point here, it's going to redesign it. Let's see. Let's see if
501. 1:27:43it updated the look and feel. [Music] [Music]
502. 1:28:07Gen X adomatic. Yep. That's good. That's good. Crafting ads that are like totally not trying too hard. All right. So, there's our there's
503. 1:28:19our ad. 90s nostalgia. We'll go cynical and sarcastic. We'll do a social media post. Whatever. Make the ad. I'm totally
504. 1:28:28[ __ ] submitting this, by the way, to the contest. As shitty as it is, I'm thinking or something. Bob Ross,
505. 1:28:43Paint by Numbers, because adultting is overrated. The actual and and actual talent is optional. Remember when you
506. 1:28:50thought you'd be a rock star? Turns out painting tiny pre-numbered landscapes is way less effort and you'll still get to
507. 1:28:56feel like an artist. Sort of. Procrastinate responsibly or just click here. Whatever.
508. 1:29:10That's pretty good. All right, let's do a magazine ad. We'll do uh slacker apathy. All right. shitty as it is, it's light years ahead
509. 1:29:26of my marketing skill. Yep. Well, that that's the thing is is like you got to realize one of the things that is is hard for me
510. 1:29:37to still wrap my head around. Shut up, champ. Stop whining. Because if you're whining, then I'm whining and everybody's whining.
511. 1:29:51Do you have to go pee? You have to go pee or you just want to go play? Yeah. You just You're just bored. You're like, "Where's mom?
512. 1:30:00I want more cheese. Not watching TV. You didn't eat your dinner. She gave you hot dogs and pasta. Don't give me [ __ ] about He eats people
513. 1:30:11food. He just does. That's That's his deal. That's why he's fat. I got nothing for you. All right. I'll let you out, but you're just going
514. 1:30:22to whine out there. >> All right, I'm gonna let you out. Hang on, people. Come on. Come on.
515. 1:30:44Okay, here's what I was saying. Um, one of the things that's hard for me to still wrap my head around is
516. 1:30:53these large language models have been trained on essentially everything that's been put on the public internet for the past 70 years.
517. 1:31:05Like all the [ __ ] in all the databases, all the [ __ ] in Wikipedia, all the books that they bought and are now paying $1.5
518. 1:31:11billion for because they didn't buy some. Um, all of that stuff is in these models. So, every Gen X creative director that
519. 1:31:24worked at an ad agency, that wrote a book or wrote a blog post or wrote a whatever, all of that shit's in there. So, its ability to
520. 1:31:33understand what to do with this thing is it it just it's pretty good. Your inner cut your inner child just
521. 1:31:40called. It's bored. Finally, a creative outlet that doesn't demand actual creativity. Just pick a color, stay in
522. 1:31:47the lines. Let me try a different I'm going to put in um my uh my company StoryVine. I'm going to put in storyvine.com.
523. 1:31:59Um and we'll do anti-corporate grunge because it's a it's a B2B thing. And then we'll do a web banner. Whatever.
524. 1:32:08Make the ad. Please enter a URL. Oh, http colon slash uh https slash. There we go. Uh so we're going to that we're going to fix. We're
525. 1:32:22going to say they should you should be able to take in URLs that don't have http at the beginning of them because
526. 1:32:29you can you can [ __ ] add that you stupid app. Um all right. What do we got here? Finally, a reason to use that camcorder.
527. 1:32:43Look, we know we know your home movies were grainy. America's home videos. Click here or don't. Whatever. That's
528. 1:32:51not quite right. Um, okay. So, let's see. So, we're going to do a couple of things. Um, make the following um changes.
529. 1:33:05bullet. Um, user should be able to put in a URL without https colon slash,
530. 1:33:22etc. And then I'm going to put um be sure to research the company or product
531. 1:33:41from the URL provided. So you can write the best possible ad
532. 1:33:55based on what you learn. Let's just let's just try that and see what that does. See see if we get something better from story mine.
533. 1:34:16Yeah, I know. I know the internet's not 70 years old, Vicki, but but what I'm what I'm talking about is anything
534. 1:34:23that's been on computer systems, right? Things were put on university computer systems 70 years ago and all of those
535. 1:34:31got connected to the internet. So, it's it's anything that's been put on computers that then got internet enabled
536. 1:34:37in the past 40 years that's that's there. So, I appreciate your commitment to accuracy, but I I'm not a total idiot, but I was
537. 1:34:49not clear. So, thank you for that. All right. Um, storyvine.com. Let's see if it does that good. We'll do '90s nostalgia
538. 1:34:57social media post whatever. Make the ad. All right. So, it let me put in storyvine.com without the HTTP, which is nice.
539. 1:35:07So, hopefully it's off actually reading the website now rather than just uh booting up the 486 story vine. Your
540. 1:35:20authentic story starts here. Don't think too hard. So, your marketing team finally realized authenticity is in.
541. 1:35:26Great. Now you just need to collect a million videos without a film crew. Story Mind makes it easy. This is good.
542. 1:35:32This is good. This worked. All right, let's put in um we'll put in uh let's go back to Amazon for a second. Amazon. Let's go to Amazon Hall.
543. 1:35:46Um what is that? The real man lift pouch. Good lord, people.
544. 1:36:00What? What is happening? Um, oh, wait. Let's do let's let's let's do a a n let's let's let's do a sort of gen x gifts.
545. 1:36:15[Music] Let's see. Gen, we'll do Gen X is one word. Gen X gifts. No Gen X gifts. Okay. Uh, fine. Uh, Gen X. We'll just put in Gen
546. 1:36:30X. No. Uh, someone give me a something to look for here. Um,
547. 1:36:44calculator. Calvin Klein women. Calligraphy. All right, fine. We'll do a calligraphy kit. You've You've convinced me. Calligraphy it is. Um,
548. 1:36:59all right. Pen markers. Okay, back to our little app. Paste in that thing. 90s nostalgia.
549. 1:37:16We're going to go anti-corporate grunge. We're going to go social media post. Whatever. Make an ad. All right. like on
550. 1:37:24Teemo AI experience. Do those work as well? Yeah, probably. Oh, AliExpress. I I would think if I've done this right,
551. 1:37:32every URL should work because it's I told it to go look at the URLs. Pet Rock, that's not a bad idea. All right.
552. 1:37:41Remember when you actually made stuff? Yeah, us too. Tired of num of thumb scrolling into oblivion? Grab these pens
553. 1:37:47and make something real. Or don't. Just don't ask us to explain NFTTS again. These are good. It's really good. Um
554. 1:37:57I I think I think rather than that I think we should do Okay, we're going to change this slightly. Okay, this is great.
555. 1:38:11Um but I want all of the mockups to be social ads. um Facebook, um LinkedIn
556. 1:38:27X, etc. And I want the ad to be optimized
557. 1:38:42for the audiences on those platforms. in addition to
558. 1:38:57the vibe. All right, let's have it redo that. Champy's whining again. Tick tock. Hang on. I'll be right back.
559. 1:39:14>> Come on, you whiner. I know you're bored, but that's tough. That's It's life in a big city. And I
560. 1:39:24know we're not in a big city. That's not the point. Okay. Tik Tok pin. Is there a Tik Tok pin? There's not a pin right now.
561. 1:39:37Are you all vibe coding along? Everyone having fun fun? Tik Tok pin. Cassette tapes. Oh, cassette tapes would be good.
562. 1:39:49Yeah. All right. So, let's go find a cassette tape thing. Let's see. Platform specific mockups. The old generic ad
563. 1:39:57formats are gone. You can now choose between Facebook, Instagram, X, formerly Twitter, and LinkedIn. Each mockup is
564. 1:40:03designed to look and feel how a real ad on that social platform. The most important change, the AI creative
565. 1:40:10director now explicitly tailor its copy, the headline, the body, the call to action for the typical audience of that
566. 1:40:16platform while still keeping the core Gen X vibe. The LinkedIn ad will have a different flavor than the ad for X, even
567. 1:40:23with the same product and style. Streamlined UI. The interface has been updated to reflect the new choices,
568. 1:40:30making the process just as simple as before. This is good. This is very good. I just vibe coded an app I've been
569. 1:40:38trying to build for months. Woohoo. This is why we play. Cassette tape player with a mic and a pleather case. This is
570. 1:40:46good. Okay. Um cassette player. Cassette tape player. Here we go. There we go. Now we're talking, people.
571. 1:40:58There is Are there really only two of them? Jesus. Wait. Amazon cassette player. Here we go. Okay.
572. 1:41:22Retro80s cassette player with Bluetooth. That's good. Okay, we'll do this one. Oh, wait. And Vicki, you uh AliExpress.
573. 1:41:35Yeah, let's do an AliExpress one. Um Ali Express. Let's see if it'll do do that. Here we go. We'll go cassette
574. 1:41:50player. Oh, these are great. Okay, here's one the size of a cassette tape itself. Do you remember that in the '9s when they
575. 1:42:01when Sony came out with the Walkman's that were like just barely larger than the cassette itself? Those were
576. 1:42:07remarkable. All right, here's a here's a yellow one. This is good. AliExpress $16. 66% off. It's It's What a bargain. What a bargain.
577. 1:42:20All right. Fantastic. Bob, tell him what he's won. All right. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn. Beautiful.
578. 1:42:29There's our thing. We're going to do this. We'll do this as a Facebook ad to start. 90s nostalgia. That's perfect. Whatever. Here we go.
579. 1:42:39Can you use a URL in the Wayback Machine? I still have my Walkman. That's awesome. You might be able to
580. 1:42:58Tap here. Keep wondering. Your phone is already a leash. Wait. Crucial. Luxury women's smart watch. No, that's not right.
581. 1:43:18Oh, I know what we got to do. Okay. Wait. We got to do something here. Um, it just made it just made an ad
582. 1:43:34where it completely ignored the um web page from the URL.
583. 1:43:49fix that. And also, um, be sure to grab a product shot from the website
584. 1:44:08to feature in the ad. All right. So, I don't know. Something something clearly went off the rails there when it
585. 1:44:19when it when it changed the uh the platform.
586. 1:44:40Oh lordy lordy lordy. Is everybody vibe coding? Is everybody doing something or y'all just sitting back smoking weed and
587. 1:44:48eating nachos? You stoners. You big stoners. What are you doing you stoners? All right. Focus forced URL research product f focused imagery.
588. 1:45:02Crucially, the instruction for the ads image has been completely changed. Instead of creating a stylized vibe
589. 1:45:09photo, it's now required to generate a prompt for a clean, professional product shot. Well, no, I don't necessarily want that.
590. 1:45:18We'll see if it we'll see if it even figures out the uh thing.
591. 1:45:33Finding our flannel. Booting up the 486.
592. 1:45:49No, it it it couldn't find it. So, AliExpress didn't go well. Let's go back to We'll go back to Amazon. Do cassette player.
593. 1:46:10We'll do this guy right here. Oh, you know what? I bet is happening. I bet it's grabbing I bet it's grabbing it's making the ad
594. 1:46:26based on the URL. Amazon URLs have a description of the product in the URL itself. I bet that's what's going on. We'll see if
595. 1:46:37we'll see if this thing actually features a product shot.
596. 1:46:54The other thing that you can do in these vibe coding apps is I can actually scroll backwards and revert to an earlier version of this.
597. 1:47:03Yeah, it just it just made up this image. It didn't get the image itself. Okay. So, that's bad. So, let's do this. Let's do um
598. 1:47:21rather than ah this is going to be too complicated. Now we're getting into Amazon APIs. I'm going to I'm going to revert I'm
599. 1:47:36going to revert back to a version. put the URL without the the APS checkpoint. This is okay, but I want all the mockups
600. 1:47:48to be socialized. Okay, restore this checkpoint. Let me pop this in. I'm going to see if this older version
601. 1:48:01was just making [ __ ] up. I bet it was. [Music] Yeah, that's not the same thing.
602. 1:48:16Walkman's still in your attic. We found your old mixtapes. Good. Okay, so here's what I want to try. Okay, so let's see.
603. 1:48:27Okay, I've reverted to an earlier version. I want you to look at images from the product
604. 1:48:42URL and use them as inputs to the prompt to make the ad.
605. 1:48:57So, we still have the personality But the product itself is accurately
606. 1:49:12represented in the ad. Use your multi-modal capabilities to
607. 1:49:28look at the product, then smartly incorporate it into an ad image
608. 1:49:46with appropriate yet. Copy. All right, let's see. Let's see if we can get it to do something decently sophisticated.
609. 1:49:56My guess is it's not going to be able to do this because right now I can give it a URL and what it's likely doing is it's likely going
610. 1:50:06to that URL and looking at the text of the site. if that it might just be going and like researching whatever's in the URL. I don't know.
611. 1:50:20It's probably it probably it's not an agent, right? So, it's not out visually looking at websites like we could we
612. 1:50:28could do this if we were building an agent and we had to go looking at a website using one of those kind of
613. 1:50:33tools. I think you would actually have to have an API from Amazon to be able to pull the images, right? So, let's see. You got it.
614. 1:50:45The previous approach was clever, but you're right. An ad needs to feature the actual pro product, not just an
615. 1:50:51interpretation of it. Relying on a text prompt alone was a weak link. I've rearchitected the application to use a
616. 1:50:58powerful multimodal approach. It takes a user provided product image. Ah, okay. And uses AI to reshoot it. That's
617. 1:51:06actually not a bad idea. Image upload multimodal AI and stylized ads. Okay, this is not bad. But let's see if it's
618. 1:51:16just product URL product image. Choose file. Okay, so so let's say um this is great. Um uh great. Let's see. Great. But I want
619. 1:51:33to be able to paste the image into the field from the clipboard.
620. 1:51:48Uh I want to be able to press in the clipboard. Um, or drag and drop or upload.
621. 1:52:04Right. I'm lazy. Feed my laziness.
622. 1:52:21This hunting motel doesn't have a microwave to heat up the nachos. And no smoking allowed. It's a hunting lodge.
623. 1:52:27What do you mean no smoking's allowed? Doesn't make any sense at all. I'm vi vibe coding an app for pinning things to Pinterest. Perfect.
624. 1:52:36Perfect. Analyzing six errors. Fixing this form submission. Tired of cringe ad. Yeah, us too.
625. 1:53:01[Music] Okay. So, let's go grab this. We'll grab this. Save image as
626. 1:53:19desktop. save. We're going to go back to our little ad. We're going to go paste. We're going to go choose a file.
627. 1:53:30Oh, it should display it. But let's generate the ad. Let's see. Let's see if it works.
628. 1:53:54Oh, it did it. Look at that. That worked. Yep. We put Bluetooth in a cassette player. Don't act surprised. That was
629. 1:54:02funny. I made fun of that, too. Your carefully curated mixtapes now less tangled wires. Relive your glory days.
630. 1:54:10We're just finally digitized that demo. We won't judge much. That's a good ad. Okay. So, we're going to do um make the input
631. 1:54:23a drag and drop input and display the uploaded image um in that space.
632. 1:54:41Make it more impressive. Don't be lazy. Um, telling your your AI robot that it's been lazy. Good practice. Good practice.
633. 1:54:58All right. Pine cone vector database went from $3 a month to a minimum of $50 a month. Oh, that sucks.
634. 1:55:09That's you know what they're doing Joker when when they're when they're going from usage based stuff to a monthly
635. 1:55:16minimum. They're actually that's a strategy to cut out the small developer because individual developers are a pain
636. 1:55:23in the ass. They they want people with money. That's stupid. I don't like that at all. I wonder if we could make this a two
637. 1:55:38panel a two column thing. Okay, let's see. Okay. Okay. the
638. 1:55:59um click, drag and drop or paste. How? You can't paste, can you? Wait. Um,
639. 1:56:19can I drag and drop? Yeah. Oh, and it did. Look, it displays it now. Cool. Okay, but let's see. Let me grab screenshot of this.
640. 1:56:37We're going to say we're going to paste it in here. And we're gonna say the image should be uh let's see um should be
641. 1:56:55below the URL and then the vibe and platform options.
642. 1:57:11should be on their own. Oops, I'm doing the wrong thing. Hit the
643. 1:57:25wrong button. Oh, it's 10:00. It's getting late, people. Well, you get the basic idea here. You can do some pretty cool [ __ ] if you're
644. 1:57:40willing to, you know, hold the vision. Like again, this is what the core of my book's going to be is our job increasingly is after you learn
645. 1:57:55there's all these different tools and they all kind of do these different things. Our job is going to be to kind
646. 1:58:00of hold the center of what's the vision here? What's the idea? and then navigate between these different tools to be able to build
647. 1:58:10something like this. That's or to build whatever to build a business plan, to build a song, to build a movie.
648. 1:58:19You're the producer. It's your ideas. Andrea, thanks, Kyle. You've inspired me to make an app for my business. Good.
649. 1:58:28Perfect. Now that I got my app, can I see it somewhere outside of Google? Yeah, there's a publish. So you you can
650. 1:58:36save you save your app, you can share your app, but there's a publish button. What I'm not clear about source camp is
651. 1:58:43exactly how it lives in the world. Um Brandon might know that, but if anyone knows that, let me know. Um okay, this is good. Your product,
652. 1:58:58okay, this is great. Now, I'd like to make this a two column app
653. 1:59:13where the inputs where the the the title spans the page and and
654. 1:59:28Below it are two columns with the inputs on the left and the output on the right.
655. 1:59:47Go. All right. doing his thing.
656. 2:00:06If you're feeling overwhelmed with all this AI stuff and how sophisticated AI is now, just that's okay. Keep keep
657. 2:00:16feeling that uncomfortableness and just play anyway. Just go for it. Okay, that didn't work.
658. 2:00:34It's still just one column.
659. 2:01:00Here's the corrected file. This will fix it. That's what Gemini says to me. We'll
660. 2:01:16see. We'll see. Old Gemini. Nope. Didn't fix it. I'm exhausted. All right. Whatever. Um, let's see if it still works.
661. 2:01:30So, we've got to go get Let's go do another ad. We'll we'll uh we'll grab um let's go try an Alibaba. We'll grab this
662. 2:01:43thing. So, we'll grab this ad or this image. Oh, you can't grab the images. Nice. Perfect.
663. 2:02:06Okay, I think I got a zoomed in shitty screenshot. Perfect. Now we'll get a good one. Okay. Um,
664. 2:02:22going back to here. Let's see. Screenshot. There we go. All right, that works.
665. 2:02:38So, here we'll get our URL. Copy. 90s nostalgia. We'll do Slacker apathy social media post. Whatever. Make the ad.
666. 2:02:57doing the thing adjusting the tracking. You can also see if if you've been playing along, can you see where like hours and hours and hours
667. 2:03:11could could blow by? Yeah, they're small. So, this are give a damn. Remember when everything was oversized?
668. 2:03:18We barely do. The sun was out of our eyes. Yeah. vintage small frame sunglasses. So, what what I've now realized is that um
669. 2:03:33the AliExpress logos don't have any product description in them and the Amazon ones do. So, this is a this is a bit of a fail application
670. 2:03:50because it's not really looking at the website. So, I'm going to let it I'm going to leave it there. This might be something
671. 2:03:58I go try to fix, but like the only way you can discover that is So, so like this is wild. So now >> you're rolling over. >> Um,
672. 2:04:13so now we're not only we're not only learning how to vibe code, but you you now have to be as curious about the application that you
673. 2:04:23created as you used to have to be about AI because you got to see if it actually works, right? Because like most things
674. 2:04:32with AI, it's good enough to make you think that it's working really well, but then you discover things like if you
675. 2:04:39have a URL that doesn't have the product description in the URL, it's not actually looking at the product page.
676. 2:04:46So, that's a problem. All right. So, just keep playing. Just keep playing. Oh, getting a crazy lightning storm here
677. 2:04:54in Dallas. What is it with lightning all of a sudden? Okay. Uh I'm going to get out of here. Let me go get on out of
678. 2:05:01here. Um, homework for the weekend. Well, I would say go back. Go back here. Here's a thing you can do. Go look at
679. 2:05:16your bank account and look at subscriptions that you're still paying for for services that you haven't looked at in three months
680. 2:05:27and go back to that service. So, if you haven't used Ideogram or if you haven't used LTX Studio, if there's something
681. 2:05:33that you're still paying for that you haven't looked at in a while, go back and play with it because these things are getting more and more
682. 2:05:41and more sophisticated. The other thing I would say is if you vibe coded something cool tonight, you you've got, you know, all weekend to do
683. 2:05:51this um this vibe coding thing. like I think I'm going to submit this Gen X ad maker to the uh to the vibe coding
684. 2:05:59contest. Why not? It's kind of funny. Um and uh and yeah, could could be could be kind of fun. So So just explore this
685. 2:06:09weekend. Do the do the hackathon. Um because who knows, you might you might win some money or you might just get,
686. 2:06:16you know, someone pointing something out to you. Um, share anything you're working on on the AI salon. Share it in
687. 2:06:24the look what I made or in the irregulars channel. Anywhere you want to anywhere you want to share it. Just try to do some engagement.
688. 2:06:32Um, and then we'll be back Monday. All right. So, I've got some work to do. I've got a uh a potential job building a
689. 2:06:4130- secondond ad, which is kind of fun using uh using all the new tools. I mean, what's what's what's kind of stunning about getting asked,
690. 2:06:55hey, can you make this ad? The answer is, I think I can. I don't know which tool to use anymore. Um because they all keep changing. So,
691. 2:07:06my workflows are just keep getting upended, but um it's just crazy times, man. We live in crazy flipping times.
692. 2:07:14Um Nano Banana is officially on X. Listen, last thing I'll say, kudos to Google. Someone at Google is paying
693. 2:07:23attention. They haven't been paying attention for [ __ ] decades. Someone at Google is paying attention. and they actually recognized that
694. 2:07:31everyone was calling it Nano Banana and not Gemini 2.5 Flash and they're leaning into it. Um, and they're doing the Nano
695. 2:07:39Banana hackathon this weekend like in conjunction with Kaggle which I think they own Tik Tok question. Um, contest I just got here. What
696. 2:07:49contest? Good evening by the way. Good evening. Um, if you go to kaggle.com hang oncompetitions k a gglecompetitions
697. 2:08:04slashbanana. You've got the nano banana hackathon which let me show you the page. There's the page. The nanobanana hackathon on Kaggle
698. 2:08:18or you can just look it up on X. It's it's it's there on X. $400,000 in prizes. It's just this weekend. They're
699. 2:08:27looking for apps that leverage Nano Banana. All right. And Nano Banana is just so fun to say. I agree. All right,
700. 2:08:37Groovy. So, go play this weekend. Go make some [ __ ] It's time. It's he I think the days if if you're if you're an a regular if
701. 2:08:52you're someone who comes here a lot I think the days of sort of discrete tool playing are kind of coming to an end. I
702. 2:09:00think we're entering an era where our real skill, like the the really skilled people in AI are going to be able to
703. 2:09:08bounce between tools and bring things together from multiple tools. Um, that's harder,
704. 2:09:22but I think it's important. Um, so I would I would encourage you start thinking about crossd discipline. Think
705. 2:09:32about AI as as 10 different team members that that you sort of spin into existence to help you execate execute
706. 2:09:40some larger vision. Um, that's where I think we're headed. So, um, yeah, I'm just getting my head around it
707. 2:09:48right now, but but I think that's the new skill. All right. I think that's the as as we enter the sort of, you know,
708. 2:09:54we're out of 101, we're out of 2011, we're now getting into AI 301. And I think AI301 is you start to do some more sophisticated um
709. 2:10:06crossf functional AI AI workings. Um, all right, GI. Um, hope you have a fantastic weekend. Hope you had fun
710. 2:10:15tonight. Peace out. Have a good And I'll see you Monday.
