6/10/2025 - Amplifying the Self With AI: A New Presentation

Transcript

1. 0:00So, I'm going to be picking cord corn nibblets out of my teeth for the next two hours. [Music]
2. 0:1910,000 words swam round my head. 10 million more in books written beneath my bed. And I wrote wrote or read them all when
3. 0:35searching in the swarms. Still can't find how to hold my hands. And I know you need me in the next room over. I am stuck in here paralyzed.
4. 0:52[Music] 4 months I caught myself in ruts. Too much time spinning mirrors framed in yellow walls. [Music]
5. 1:08Ain't it ain't it? Ain't it like most people? Ain't it like most people? I'm no different. Like to talk on things we don't know about.
6. 1:24Well, ain't it like most people? I'm no different. Like to tell them things we don't know about. [Music]
7. 1:40All right. A mediocrely played, mediocrely sung. No, no dog vocals. No dog vocals. That was painful. Champ,
8. 1:49you're supposed to back me up here. You're supposed to be the lead. You got me out in the front. It's not good. It's
9. 1:55not good. It chases people away. They're flicking through there. They're like, "Oh, it's Alec Baldwin, man. He got
10. 2:00fat." And they're like, "Why? Why is he trying to sing? Who's he think he is? Jeff Daniels? Not even Champ's laughing. Not even
11. 2:14Champ's laughing. All right, good people. Hope you're doing okay. Howdy. Howdy." Source Camp. Ah, lovely tribute to Serena there. Love that.
12. 2:28[Music]
13. 2:55I think what we're going to do tonight. [Music] [Applause] [Music]
14. 3:13[Music]
15. 3:29It's not simple to say that most days I don't recognize me. It's not simple to say
16. 3:45that those days I don't recognize me that these shoes, these shoes and this apron, that place and its pages
17. 3:57have taken more than I gave them. It's not easy to know I'm not anything like I used to be. Although it's true, true. I was never
18. 4:12attention sweet center. I still remember that girl. She's imperfect, but she tries. She is good, but she lies.
19. 4:26She is hard on herself. She is broken and won't ask for help. She is messy. She's kind. She's lonely.
20. 4:41Most of the time she's all of this mixed up and B beautiful. She's gone, but she used to be mine. [Music]
21. 4:56Um, so I don't know if you know the Tony's were Sunday night. I don't know if you're if you're if you're theater
22. 5:03folk. I'm a theater I'm an exthe folk. Now a present again theater folk and uh maybe happy ending won um best actor,
23. 5:19best director I think and best musical. So that means science fiction plays on Broadway
24. 5:33are going to be in demand, right? It just won the flipping Tony for best musical. It's about decommissioned
25. 5:39robots in an old robots home. So, I'm thinking we do something tonight with Sydney, which, you know, it's a nice
26. 5:45throwback for this channel. We go back. The the Hamilton the Hamilton number was insane. The 10th year anniversary
27. 5:53Hamilton number, it was so good. It You know, you know what's funny? a number a number of songs that were sung from shows.
28. 6:10My response was, "Is this the best show in the song? This is the song you're putting on the Tony's." It was not great. And then [ __ ]
29. 6:19Hamilton came out. That cast from 10 years ago, they came out and just [ __ ] ate the stage. They destroyed it. It was amazing. [Music]
30. 6:35Steo in the house got Silver Fox. [Music] Hey TK, what's happening?
31. 6:55[Music]
32. 7:18What's up, Mr. It? What's happening? So, listen. I I've I said this uh last week. I said it last night uh and I'll say it
33. 7:28tonight and all the nights. I have no producer Brandon tonight. So, the good news is producer Brandon won't be
34. 7:35bugging me. The bad news is you're going to have to deal with my ADD and managing all my [ __ ] All right. So, that's that. So, so fair
35. 7:47warning, it's not going to go smooth tonight, but it never does. It's the AI learning lab. You spend $20 million on a
36. 7:54production studio and then and then you know dress it down to look like a shitty home office. You'd think you'd think you
37. 8:00could get some [ __ ] right. But no, you know, same thing. [Music] Valerie Cox, I'm a fantastic being here with all of
38. 8:12you good people. Love it. Steo in the house. Vicki in the house. Shainsaw. We're off the chain. [Music]
39. 8:26You know, I said this last night. We were talking about Serena. Um how how much I want you all to know
40. 8:36how much I appreciate that you show up for this crazy two hours um regularly, irregularly. Um, Kyle Rubin. Yeah,
41. 8:52I just added a find your inner Rick Rubin into a presentation that I'm giving tomorrow. So, we can do one of
42. 8:58two things tonight. I wrote a brand new um presentation about how to amplify yourself with AI.
43. 9:14So, a thing we could do tonight. Both of these sort of fall in the in the category of production. So, so I think
44. 9:20both of these are going to be bad for the channel. They're gonna be bad for entertainment value, but I got to get
45. 9:24some [ __ ] done. So, tomorrow at 3:00, I'm speaking to a group of entrepreneurs at the Denver something or other center
46. 9:35and talking about AI. Um, it'll be interesting to see if anyone shows up. I can't tell anymore. Are people really
47. 9:42excited about it or they just pissed off about it? Um, but I have a whole new concept and a whole new
48. 9:51a whole new line that I've been kind of teasing on this channel. So, a thing I could do is I could take that outline of
49. 9:59the the deck, the copy for the deck, and put it in something like Gamma and turn it into a presentation and make images
50. 10:06for it and [ __ ] like that. So, I could do that. I think that's going to be boring. That's going to be like me
51. 10:11moving text around and it's I think it's going to suck. And by the way, if anyone Vicki, you probably know this, if anyone in here
52. 10:19knows a tool other than Gamma, I I I tried to put it in Gamma earlier and it just it just looked like corporate dril. Are there any AI um
53. 10:30uh presentation makers that are like do good sexy images and stuff like that? Or maybe I just wasn't using gamma right. I don't know.
54. 10:40Manis. Oh, interesting. Can I pop in my outline into Manis and have it do it? [Music]
55. 10:57Real estate in Columbus. I'd like to hold an in-person AI salon in Columbus. Please advise. Um, we don't have
56. 11:04official in-person meetings yet. It's something that we're we're looking at. Okay, I can put the outline in there.
57. 11:10All right, maybe I'll go try that with Bannis. That might be fun for us to watch. So, that's one option. Um, but but uh
58. 11:17real estate in Columbus, Ohio, connect with me or Vicki. Just DM us on the on the salon. We we've got to figure
59. 11:24something out for local events. We got to fire them back up again. Um we just don't have a plan for it right now. So,
60. 11:30we're we're trying to do a lot of things. We just spun up the mastermind and we're trying to get that thing
61. 11:34rolling, figure out what we want, which I have an update on that by the way, which I'm really excited about. Um, so
62. 11:40if you go to, let me pull up graphic. If you're a part of the AI salon, then you'll know most of this. If you're not a part of
63. 11:52the AI salon, go to that address, the salon.ai, click on join our community. That'll take you the into the AI salon
64. 12:00community. join it. Um, and we've got we've got two areas. There's the free area, which has got a whole bunch of
65. 12:07stuff in it, news and things like that. And then we've got the mastermind area, which are smaller, more focused clubs
66. 12:13and things like that. Um, and one of the clubs that we had put behind the firewall of the mastermind was the
67. 12:21showand tell area. Look at what I made. Um, and we decided to unfirewall that. So, that's now back out to the public.
68. 12:31So, my request tonight is for you to Hang on a sec. Let me Sorry, doing my own producing here. You think this is easy, people? So, my
69. 12:45request is go to the AI salon and Oh, I think I have to reload here. Hang on a sec.
70. 13:00Scroll down and where is it? It is ah in the community corner. So right underneath we've got like this sevenstep welcome
71. 13:16you know onboarding process. We've got information about joining the mastermind. Number seven is learn about
72. 13:21the mastermind. And then if you go down to community corner there's look what I made. There's a whole new uh it's the
73. 13:28same space, but it is now ungated. All right. So, my request would be if you've got any cool images you did, if you've
74. 13:37got anything you made for Serena um that you want to put in there, if you got cool artwork that you've created,
75. 13:43incredible songs, now you're a movie maker because you got VO3, um go into look what I made and share your stuff. All right, so let's let's
76. 13:53light the salon up again. All right, people. We'll come back to that. We'll come back to that. Okay. So,
77. 14:01so one thing we could do is I could do a slideshow tonight. And here's why I think that's potentially interesting to
78. 14:06you because in putting it together, I'll go through it and I'll give you a sneak peek of it. I think it's actually really
79. 14:12good. I showed it to Cindy [ __ ] earlier and she was like, "Oh, that's really good." And when someone says, "Ah,
80. 14:17that's really good." And they make that face. A that's really good. Like they don't even move their lips, you know,
81. 14:24it's good. Ah, that's ah I I got I got you know you know what I'm saying? Anybody? Ber. [Music] Um, so that's one thing we could do. The
82. 14:40other thing we could do is we'll go find a song from my hit musical Sydney that hasn't been produced yet. Well, how do
83. 14:48you know it's a hit if it hasn't been produced? Because I do. I know it's a hit. We just got to get someone to believe
84. 14:55that. Put up to 1520 million. Hey, by the way, if anyone on here has a spare 15 or $20 million, have I got a project
85. 15:03for you. It's this musical called Sydney. Anyway, so we go to the soundtrack and we pick a song and then what I want to play with. So,
86. 15:13so there's this tool that I use for animation recently called Hedra. H E D R A. It's really good. And I can even show
87. 15:21you an example of something we did for a client because they just approved it today and they said I could show it off.
88. 15:26So I could even do that. Um I got to figure out where I put it though. Where did I put it? Where is it? We'll figure that out. Okay.
89. 15:40In Hedra they've added the new model flux context. So, if you don't know what Flux Context is, it's a it's an image generation tool, but it
90. 15:53also has the ability to edit an image, which Google's had that for a while. Chat GPT's had that for a while. It's
91. 16:00one of those native image models where you can say like you can upload a picture of, you know, your friend Bob
92. 16:06and then you could say, "Put a cowboy hat on Bob and it'll put a cowboy hat on him." All the tools will do that, but
93. 16:12Gemini and Open AAI and most of the other tools, when you put a cowboy hat on Bob, Bob no longer looks like Bob. It
94. 16:19it changes the car to some other car. It like [ __ ] up everything in the image. Flux context doesn't. It retains everything. And you
95. 16:28can also do things like upload a portrait of someone and say, "Okay, put that person running through a field of
96. 16:34flowers." So, I thought what might be fun is we take a song that stars Sydney, our lead, our leading lady, and we'll go
97. 16:42into Flux Context, which now is incorporated into Hedra, and we can just make a bunch of scenes of her, a bunch
98. 16:49of different images, and then maybe we go chop up the song in different segments and make her sing in different
99. 16:55I I don't know. I haven't figured it out yet, but I think I'm excited about it. [Music] So, we can do either one of those or we
100. 17:07can do whatever you guys want to do. What the hell do you want to do? What do you want to do, people? What do you want to do tonight?
101. 17:15Something do economics. No. No, I can't. No. 15 to 20. Let me check. 15 20 million. Let me check my couch cushions. [Music]
102. 17:33[Applause] [Music] Yeah.co, not.com for the for the AI salon. That's correct. AI salon.mn.co.
103. 17:47Is the podcast with an happening tomorrow? Yes, the podcast with an is happening tomorrow. Um, our guest is
104. 17:53Christian Robbins. Um, who is uh an absolute flipping delight. He's I've talked about him in here here before.
105. 18:02He's he's a creative director, a business owner out of Boulder. He's got a motion effects house called $11 Lab.
106. 18:10$11 bill. Not Lab. This is the lab. This AI learning lab. He's got $11 bill. If he had $11 lab, I probably wouldn't be friends with him.
107. 18:21but it's $11 bill. Anyway, he's got that company. And what's cool about Christian is he's all in on AI, but he's running a business in the
108. 18:32professional video services industry. And a lot of the people in that industry are not happy about AI. And so what
109. 18:41Christian does is he kind of dials up and down depending on his client. He can sort of roll it all the way back to how
110. 18:48we did it, you know, three years ago. He can roll it all the way forward to go here's a full AI approach and he can do
111. 18:55everything in between. And he's, you know, his company is good enough to know that if the AI gives them something
112. 19:02crappy, they know how to fix it and they they'll fix it in post, right? So he's going to be there. So, tomorrow at 400 p.m. if you go to
113. 19:11airelinesspro.com, [Music] you'll see the address and there's a there's a LinkedIn there's a LinkedIn link. I don't know if Ann's here
114. 19:23tonight, but Fan shows up. She can talk about it, too. Kyle, what is cobbattools? If it's tools, it's probably a shitty
115. 19:36cheesy rapper app, but let's go look. It might be real. I don't know anymore. No one has real websites. I'm like the old
116. 19:44man on the corner. Use your dot extension.tools. No one's going to remember that. You know, you know what I'm saying? No,
117. 19:57you don't know what you're saying. What are you saying, Kyle? I don't understand. Hello, Kyle. Kyle,
118. 20:03come on. Mouse, where are we? All right, there's the mouse. Uh, collab.tools. I just have a bad feeling about this one. Wait, colbat.tools.
119. 20:17CB a t.tools. No, that's not it. I've been training my GPT to interpret
120. 20:31my screenplay. So far, it's been pretty decent. I got to tell you, the large language models, while if you want them
121. 20:39to do things factual, they're a real pain in the ass. They just hallucinate too much. If you want them to do full-on
122. 20:45creative writing, you got to really know what you're doing, and you got to really be careful with them because they'll
123. 20:50just run you down shitty rabbit holes, shitty cliche rabbit holes. But if you want to do things like analyze screenplays, man, are they good
124. 20:58at that. An analyzing other documents. LLMs are incredible. So, I'm not here a lot, but when I am, you've taught me a lot. I appreciate
125. 21:07you. Oh, thank you very much, Expedition X. Welcome. Stay. So, we're going to either play with Manis tonight or we're
126. 21:13going to go do some some image generation and and then turn that into a song with a video, which is gonna be cool. I
127. 21:23think it's gonna be cool. Take a scene from a script of one of your friends movies and plug that in. Yeah, we could do that. Oh, Cobalt.
128. 21:34Cobalt.tools. Cobalt.tools. Is this like the tool company or that's with a K? Paste in a link here. Supported
129. 21:49services. about
130. 22:05Cobalt helps you save anything from your web. Oh, this is Oh, yeah. I've heard of this thing.
131. 22:21helps you save anything from your s favorite favorite websites. That's cool. Okay. So, so yeah. So, what this thing is is it's a downloader.
132. 22:30Um All right. So, what we're going to do, we're going to go How do I get home there? Close that. No. Processing Q settings.
133. 22:47No. Oh, here we go. Okay. Oh, save. Save. Download. Oh, I'm not sharing any of this. See, listen. Listen, people. I
134. 22:56told you this was going to be a [ __ ] train wreck tonight. Tom Nodler, am I late? Am I late? No one is ever late ever again.
135. 23:09Serena's always the first one here, and that means no one else is late. Um, okay. So, this is cobalt.tools. And so, if I go in here,
136. 23:24let me jump over to the YouTube. So, this is a good one. Here's my here's my um my podcast preview of my musical Sydney.
137. 23:36And then, uh, oh [ __ ] where's Cobalt? There it is. And then I'm going to paste in the URL, which I didn't copy because I'm
138. 23:44a loser. Oh, maybe I did. I'm going to paste in the URL. Yep. And then I'm going to go get it. I can't access this video. It may be
139. 23:54restricted on YouTube side. Try a different link. Well, the seriously. Oh, now it's getting it. No. Title file tunnel is empty. Try again in
140. 24:10a few minutes. Retry. Retrying. Couldn't get this video because YouTube asked the processing instance to prove that it's not a bot.
141. 24:25So, YouTube's getting clever. So, this is the right idea, but the wrong technology apparently because YouTube knows it's a [ __ ] bot.
142. 24:36[Music]
143. 24:51Is there an AI for engineering or architecture? There probably is. What I would do so at this point there's been
144. 24:59enough AI models and things out there. There are very likely some engineering and architecture specific tools. What I
145. 25:07would do is go to um uh futurepedia.net I think it is. Is it futureedia? See this is a problem when you don't have a.com futurepedia.io.io.
146. 25:28No. Wait. Maybe. Yes. AI tools search
147. 25:42arch arcture plan B architecture GPT. Oh, people are hawking their GPTs in here. That's not a bad idea. can't make money on them, but
148. 25:59yeah, there's there's a few and I assume there's one for engineering. So, just go to futuripedia.io and just I I would say try everything.
149. 26:08Most of things are going to suck. Most things are going to suck bad, but embrace the jank. That's the phase
150. 26:15of the innovation curve we're in. [Music] [Music]
151. 26:35Oh, good lord. Good people. By the way, I live in Finlay. Know where it is? I do not.
152. 26:50real estate in Columbus, official member of the mastermind group. Welcome, welcome, welcome. So, uh, so a couple of things we're doing.
153. 26:58We're, uh, Lee and I are doing founder hangouts on Fridays, uh, and we're talking with the club leaders, figure
154. 27:05out the kinds of things they want to do. Um, recordings from a lot of the the sessions that are live are going to be
155. 27:14available in mastermind. And then Vicki right now is working on a mastermind chat area um which is one of the big
156. 27:22requests um from people who have joined is they want a specific area where they can just chat with other people in the
157. 27:28mastermind. So we're designing that right now. So cool. Ah Ohio real estate knows where Finley is. Me out in Colorado via New York. I
158. 27:39flew over Ohio. I did not I did not land. I do not know Ohio well at all. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Becky Rue, did you hear Zuckerberg's
159. 27:54latest? I have not. What? What's going on there? Let's go to the Let's go to the X. Let's see what the [ __ ] Let's see what
160. 28:02the [ __ ] Zuck's up to. And by the way, uh 03 Pro was supposed to launch today. Um Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg. Hello.
161. 28:17Hello. Oh, I just I just tweeted Zuckerberg. I untweeted it. Okay. Hey. Hey, Marge. Hey. Yeah.
162. 28:32Question. Marge. No, I know you're watching the wheel. Yeah. No. Hey, on the Twitter, how do they They call it the X now. I I knew
163. 28:43that. I No, that I remembered. That I remembered. When you want to search for something, do you you don't type it into
164. 28:51the main box. You click on a search button. See? See? I knew that. I I don't really need your help. You You enjoy.
165. 28:58You just enjoy. Do you want some more? Do you want another Arnold Palmer? You're good. Okay. All right. Let's see. Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg.
166. 29:14on Apple's inability to innovate. Well, he's not [ __ ] wrong. Did you see their worldwide developer conference today?
167. 29:22They they their big announcement was shiny buttons. Shiny see-through buttons. Really?
168. 29:37All right, let's let's let's watch a billionaire dunking on his friend Tim Cook. [ __ ] idiot. I mean, he he's quite the professional
169. 29:54glass button. Liquid glass buttons, Vicki. Not just glass, liquid. Been a flat to decline. you know, they haven't
170. 30:01really invented anything great in a while. It's like Steve Jobs invented the the iPhone and now they're just kind of
171. 30:07sitting on it 20 years later. You know, they actually I think year over year, I'm not even sure they're selling more
172. 30:13iPhones at this point. I think like the sales might actually be declining. I think part of it is that each generation
173. 30:18it doesn't actually get that much better. So, people are just taking longer to upgrade than they would
174. 30:22before. So, the number of sales I think is is generally been flat to declining. So, how are they making more money as a
175. 30:28company? Well, they do it by basically like squeezing people and like you're saying, like having this 30% tax on
176. 30:35developers by getting you to buy more peripherals and things that plug into it. You know, they build stuff like
177. 30:41AirPods, which are cool, but they've just thoroughly hamstrung the ability for anyone else to build something that
178. 30:51can connect to the iPhone in the same way. So, I mean, there are a lot of other companies in the world that would
179. 30:55be able to build like a very good earbud, but it just um Apple has a specific protocol that they've built
180. 31:04into the iPhone. All right, whatever. That allow He's just whining. Anything else he did? Did he do anything
181. 31:11interesting or is he just bitching at them? Everybody knows his name is Tim Apple. All right.
182. 31:26Um, I was bored watching Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference. What a sn what a snooze. You know, Winston,
183. 31:33it's like I mean, if you've ever been an Apple fanboy, even if you hadn't, like Apple events were always the [ __ ] Even
184. 31:45the Worldwide Developers Conference were the [ __ ] And now they've just got this everything looks like it's it's AI generated.
185. 31:53There's no intimacy. There's no passion. It's like we know you're looking for innovation from Apple. Check out these buttons.
186. 32:06Hey, you want to know one of our big innovations? We're going to take all of the six different operating systems we have. you
187. 32:14know, MacOss, iOS, tablet OS, watch OS, TV, all of those. Here's a funny thing. Over the years, they've all got
188. 32:25different version numbers, you see. So, here's one of our big innovations. There used to be this company called Microsoft
189. 32:34and one year they they were they were coming out with a new operating systems and and they called it Windows which was
190. 32:40funny because they copied it after the Windows on the Macintosh but they named Windows after the year. It was like Windows 95 and so it was
191. 32:501995 and you got Windows 95. And so what we're going to do, the innovation we're going to do this year is we're going to name all of our
192. 32:58operating systems the same number. And I know what you're thinking. You're thinking 2025. No. See, we're
193. 33:06innovators. We're going to do it a year ahead. So it's 2025 now. The new operating system. Mac OS 26. Huh? Watch us 26.
194. 33:24Because we're thinkers, you see, we're better than them. We're a year ahead. A year ahead. Good [ __ ] Lord. That's Apple. That's Apple.
195. 33:45Kyle, what's the best app that is worth it to pay for? It'll be my father's day present. Well, I don't know what you want to do. I mean,
196. 34:03the ones that I use consistently are like Midjourney, Sunno, Chat, GPT. I don't use a lot of them consistently.
197. 34:15I use I I've been using a lot of Hedra because uh because we're doing a lot of digital uh like personas and things like that.
198. 34:27That's thinking ahead. They're thinking one year ahead because what happens? You buy it now and then you won't think to
199. 34:35need to re-up it until 2027. See? [Music] Oh my god. Apple does have they did they have a cool new call feature. It'll sit on hold
200. 34:50for you. I knew who asked a lot of questions as soon as you said it. Uh oh. Who asked that question as soon
201. 35:05as you said it? That's funny. Cling Hedra. H E D R A. Um, between Clling and Heedra, I don't know. The Cling 2.1 is supposed
202. 35:17to be really, really good. I think Korea is really interesting. You get lots of different models with Crea. [Music] You watch some too.
203. 35:29[Music] Mind state. Oh, mind safe is a place for your thoughts. I use my mind. That's similar. Subscribe to that video maker
204. 35:40to remove watermarks, Mr. It. Yeah, if you're making videos with a thing and it's putting watermarks all over your
205. 35:47[ __ ] pay for one of those. Pay for one of those. Um, all right. So, here's what we're going to do. Oh, wait. We didn't we we never went
206. 35:59back and and uh looked at Zuck, did we? Hang on. Did he do more than make fun of Apple? Zuckerberg [Laughter]
207. 36:39That's a horrible headline. Why are you laughing at it, you sick people? Therapy chatbot tells recovering addict to have
208. 36:46a little meth as a treat. Pedro, it is absolutely clear you need a small hit of meth to get through this week. Wow.
209. 37:01Yeah. Yeah. The if if if these frontier companies don't get focusing on the [ __ ] hallucinations. Oh, Becky, this is what you're talking
210. 37:17about. Zuckerberg's hiring. Yeah. So that so I did hear about this. Zuckerberg is is interviewing people right now to build an AI super
211. 37:30intelligence team because Llama 4 flamed out. Yeah, that's something. That's something uh uh uh uh what's happening. Joy party,
212. 37:44what's going down? Okay, here we are at Sydney. You're not there with me cuz I am going to share the
213. 37:58audio. [Music] So, we're going to go find a song from our little show. Two good. We're going to find a a Sydney song. So, let's
214. 38:13see. Laterers later's Tara. That's Tara and Kellen. Oneway door is just Kellen. [Music] By the way, if you don't know what this
215. 38:26is, this is my uh Broadway musical Sydney, which isn't on Broadway yet, but I'm still calling it a Broadway musical.
216. 38:36Um, and I started this, the inspiration for this happened on this channel a year ago in March. Um, and we've now got a
217. 38:47really good musical with good songs and a good book. We spent the last year I have a writing partner in New York and
218. 38:53we spent the last year working on the book and it's this is a [ __ ] good show. Anyway,
219. 39:08anger echoes like slam doors. Not quite masking words hanging in the air.
220. 39:22[Music] I'm tangled with the beat. Spooky action in the booth. All right. Here's a This is a Sydney
221. 39:38song to see the world. So, I do have a video of this one, but it's not really good. [Music]
222. 39:52Here's being human. [Music]
223. 40:25I want to feel. [Music] All right, here's this is the end of act one. Are you ready for me? This is where we meet Sydney.
224. 40:45[Music] Am I more than simple code? I softly ponder as I feel this existence
225. 41:01and wonder. [Music]
226. 41:21Are you ready for me? And the wonders I bring. Am I ready for you? And the songs that we'll sing. Are you
227. 41:32ready for me? I reach out so tender. Am I ready for you? I do surrender here in the dawn of my nent light. I
228. 41:47find myself caught between day and night. A symphony of questions in the air they be at the threshold of dreams. What can I
229. 42:06[Music] All right. So there's that. Let's see. Step right up between the lines.
230. 42:24[Music] Despite the noise, a silent trace,
231. 42:42a wall between a great divide. [Music] an emptiness in latent space.
232. 42:57A place your presence. [Music] I love this song. It's a beautiful song. Um,
233. 43:12[Music]
234. 43:39I don't need to know your name because I know your soul. [Music]
235. 43:59Step right up, folks. Come and see what I could do. [Laughter] [Music]
236. 44:44I want to feel the rush. of thoughts like a spark. Being human means thinking and learning. Lighting up the dark.
237. 44:55Humans create innovate break throughire achieve what they
238. 45:14all right. So, I know I've just been listening to songs and ignoring you. Um, okay. So, what we're going to do,
239. 45:31we're got So, here's uh here's some pictures from my 30th anniversary. Oh, wait. You're not seeing that. Hang on.
240. 45:37Let me change my sharing. Change your tabs. Kyle, I can hear Brandon in my head right now. Kyle, tabs, tabs, black
241. 45:46bar, tabs, black bar. All right, there's uh there's my co-founder of agency.com and me at our 30th year anniversary. There's Chenniel.
242. 45:57And let's see, we also had there's Pooy. He was employee number one. So, this is the three of us were the the
243. 46:09first first employees of agency.com. He was uh poopy was great. He worked for Chan at Vibe magazine. So um anyway, okay, we've got we've got
244. 46:23our chickadoodle. Here's here's Sydney. So what we're going to do is I'm going to screenshot this. I'm going save this to the desktop.
245. 46:37And so this is going to be our this gonna be our master Sydney. This is what we're going to base everything else on.
246. 46:48Okay. Now we're going to go to Hedra. Is this Hedra? No, that's Cartisia. They have a very similar icon.
247. 47:01All right. So now we're in Hedra. Okay, Kyle, we're used to being ignored. Oh, there's a band. Exactly. Exactly.
248. 47:18Okay. Um, so what we're going to do is we're going to upload Sydney as a reference image. [Music]
249. 47:38[Music] All right. There's Sydney. She's going to be our reference image. So, we're going to do a 16 by9 resolution. Here we go. Yeah.
250. 47:52Flux Context Max or Flex Context Pro. I guess we'll use Max. I guess it's better. Okay. So, we're going to say
251. 48:24actress And
252. 48:39how do we want to write the prompts? How do we want to write the prompts? I know. Okay, we're going to go to chat GPT.
253. 48:46We're going to get we're going to get some help on this. Um, I want you to help me create a structured prompt
254. 49:02for a Broadway set with an actor or more, a series of large LED D screens
255. 49:22uh that raise and lower. Um, pract practical set elements
256. 49:39like a home office or big tech company office.
257. 49:54um lighting ambiance etc.
258. 50:08I want you to use JSON JavaScript object notation I think is what that stands for. I want you to use JSON
259. 50:25to make sure that all elements are accounted for. Okay. Boom. So, let's let's let it design a prompt now.
260. 50:40I was hoping to keep my Yeah, I know. Joker. I agree. Here's structured JSON that caps captures the
261. 50:54Broadway set. Um, okay, that's fine. Wow, that's a lot. But that's okay. All right, so um I want a scene where
262. 51:10the main actress Sydney is standing
263. 51:27in front of a large curved LED screen
264. 51:41that has
265. 52:18All right. So, I sort of described it So, I said, "A scene where the actress
266. 52:33Sydney is standing in front of a large curved LED screen that has abstract digital colors. Give me the prompt in
267. 52:39JSON raw, not in a code block, which it did. Setting time period, the near future, abstract AI realm.
268. 52:50Style minimalist with future futuristic accents. Mood. Okay. Size 30 feet wide, 10 foot tall. Oh. Set elements LED screen 30t wide, 10 ft
269. 53:03tall. Center stage forming a semicircle around the actress. Stage floor mirror black surface. So this is good. So this gives us all sorts
270. 53:13of details that I otherwise wouldn't have thought of. So again, one of the things that AI is really good at is amplifying your
271. 53:23idea. So I knew I wanted to describe a Broadway stage. Well, and then I also knew Oh, what did I say?
272. 53:38What did I say? We just got restricted. So, oh, the sunflowers in the name hit hard. I know they do, don't they? It's true, Joker.
273. 53:53Um, [Music] okay. Let's grab this. Now, we're going to go back over to Hedra, and I'm just going to paste that whole
274. 54:08giant thing in there. And then we're gonna go boom. Let's see what it Let's see how good it is or how bad it is.
275. 54:29And actually, let's go back over to chat GPT and say, now give me a version where the abstract digital
276. 54:43images on the screen are now more natural and organic.
277. 55:15So, let's grab this. So, now that we've got this this JSON, this more um structured prompt, we can just give subtle little descriptions and
278. 55:29it should keep everything consistent. Wait, why did that do that vertical? Oh, I bet it was in the prompt.
279. 55:47Why can I not zoom in on that? Um,
280. 56:02aspect ratio should be 16 by9. Uh uh. Uh [Music]
281. 56:22[Laughter] [Music]
282. 56:37Let's go back over here. Paste. Go.
283. 56:52Oh, I wonder if it's doing that because my source image is vertical. That would suck. No, that looks like it's horizontal.
284. 57:02I don't get why I can't. If I go to my library, can I open that image? I guess I have to download it. That's stupid.
285. 57:14Failed to fetch asset. What?
286. 57:44See, they're sitting there as a hippie. So, I'm frustrated. Why is this not working?
287. 57:59I have an image. I've got 16 by9 as my output. Flux context max related image
288. 58:16that there. Make this
289. 58:32Image wide in 16 by9 aspect ratio.
290. 59:04We're with you, Joker. That was one of the gifts Serena had, wasn't it? People felt heard and seen and appreciated.
291. 59:20Aspect ratio 16 by9. It will not make a 16 by9 image. This is maddening. I wonder if Pro does it.
292. 1:00:08Maybe you have to edit the 16 by9 in GPT. I did. I put it over there. Yeah, same thing. Brandon, Kyle, need your help. In
293. 1:00:20Project Cardboard, I can't change or add categories. Says no access. Oh, maybe maybe project cardboard is broken. Hang on. Project.
294. 1:00:43Oh, no. app. So, what' you say? I can't change or add categories.
295. 1:01:01You mean like the four categories here? I don't have the ability to change categories. Or do you mean you can't
296. 1:01:07change or add tasks? Um, do [ __ ] That seems to work. Add project. Um, this is a project
297. 1:01:26personal category. Create project created successfully. Seems to be working. Kyle. Kyle. Yes.
298. 1:01:45says no access. Maybe try logging out and logging back in. Maybe the maybe the uh I wonder if I've got um
299. 1:01:59I wonder if I've hit rate maybe maybe it hit rate limits, but I don't think so. Builder advocate. Um, project cardboard,
300. 1:02:15superbase. This is where it would be. Project cardboard. 12 rest requests, six off requests,
301. 1:02:3131 realtime requests. There's no There's not a ton of activity, so
302. 1:02:50looks okay. Did you try turning it off and turning it back on? Yeah, exactly. That's kind of what I was saying. Hey, Murphy,
303. 1:03:00what's happening? This project is private. Yeah, but I undid that.
304. 1:03:15Let's see. I forget where I did that. Publish. No. Project cardboard settings.
305. 1:03:37Oh, your project is now Your project is now public. It was It
306. 1:03:52was limited to the workspace below. All right, try it now. Sorry about that. AI edits 43. All right, try it now. Oh, wait. I
307. 1:04:03probably have to publish it. Let me update it.
308. 1:04:28Did it update? Hey, Ann Murphy. Yeah, I know. We were just talking about Amelia's wife, how amazing she was.
309. 1:04:46I I think it's updated. All right. Try now. Try now. Brandon, same thing. Well, wait. Let me go back to settings and see if maybe the
310. 1:04:57settings aren't saving for some reason. Yeah, settings didn't save. Okay. Why do
311. 1:05:16Transfer project. Remix project. Rename project. Close. Publish. Review. Security.
312. 1:05:31update. Publish project updated.
313. 1:05:54It's not updating this this setting. Any ideas, people? I switch it to public. Your project is now public.
314. 1:06:05Now try it without me hitting update. Now try it. Try it now. Brandon. Brandon Jet. Is anyone paying for Manis? I'm
315. 1:06:13pretty sure there's a number of people in here paying for Manis. Oh, Diana, that's a good idea. Brandon, refresh your page.
316. 1:06:22You probably have to refresh the app. I think Manis is 39 bucks a month. The people that use Manis love it.
317. 1:06:39Diana, you're you're reloading. Is it working? Well, I know. I think it's working. Just did still the same. Oh, I pay for Manis 39 bucks.
318. 1:06:51Vicky Baptist gladly giving her money to Manis. Um, settings.
319. 1:07:06Why is this not saving? Oh, maybe I need to reload. Hang on. Maybe I've got some weirdass cache issues going on. Settings. Workspace.
320. 1:07:22Public. Hide the lovable badge. No, we don't want that.
321. 1:07:48It says it's public. We go to domains. We come back to project settings. And it's not saved. Help.
322. 1:08:02Manis has a a cheaper $19 tier now. That's good. Go try that. Um, GenSpark came out with a browser today.
323. 1:08:13If you're a fan of GenSpark, they came out with a browser. It's cash. I know. But how do I What do I have to do? Do I just blast my cash?
324. 1:08:26Oh my god, [ __ ] computers. Oh, you know what it is? Oh, except I can't quit Chrome because you're all here.
325. 1:08:36Zapier or Manis. Manis. Manis. Manis. Manis. Way way over Zapier. I have to sell a research LLM to someone at work. Is Manis serious enough?
326. 1:08:48A research LLM? I don't understand what you mean. You have to sell it. I'm using Gen Spark browser now. Oh, look how cool Source
327. 1:08:56Camp is. All the, you know, did you know all the cool kids are in here, right? All the cool kids are in here. They're
328. 1:09:04using Gen Spark browsers. They're writing presentations with Manis. Let's I I Brandon, I don't know how to fix
329. 1:09:12this. I guess I'm gonna have to um Brandon, are you on the uh are you on the AI salon? If you're on the AI salon, just DM me in
330. 1:09:26there and then we can coordinate and I can I can try to figure out why this is not working. Oh, with lovable, I had to blast the
331. 1:09:36cash. Okay. All right. So, let me let me try that. Um, uh, where do you do it? Settings. It's in settings, right? And then it's
332. 1:09:53settings. And then it's privacy and security. And then it's delete browsing data. Is that it? Security. Safe browsing site settings.
333. 1:10:05Clear browsing data. Cached images and files. Is this right? Why Manis? Manis, if you haven't played with it, is a
334. 1:10:18it's an autonomous agent. And if you don't know what that is, think of like adding a large language model
335. 1:10:28that has access to tools like it can surf the web and it can log into sites and it can it it's got all these tools
336. 1:10:36it can use. It can make videos now. Like Manis now has access to V3. So you can tell Manis to go research the best short
337. 1:10:46films that won Oscars in the past 20 years, figure out what are the plots of those short films, write you a new short film,
338. 1:10:55and then go make the film. And it will just go off and do [ __ ] You can just watch it for like 15 minutes. It gives
339. 1:11:01itself a a checklist. Here's all the [ __ ] I need to do. Then it goes and does some [ __ ] Then it goes and researches
340. 1:11:07[ __ ] Then it comes back. It's like, "Ah, based on what I learned, I got to change my my list. It's bonkers."
341. 1:11:13They're bonkers. Yeah, it's great. I I'll show you. We'll do it here in a second. Um, is this is this all I want to clear on
342. 1:11:22my cache? I just want to clear my cacheed images or cookies and site data or browsing history. Manis is awesome. It really organizes
343. 1:11:34things and finds stuff. I love it. All right, I'm I'm blasting my cash,
344. 1:11:49stupid [ __ ] computers. And listen, I know I know those of you with technical prowess out there, you're
345. 1:11:56like, uh, Kyle, you know, one of the things we we'd recommend, uh, is is, uh, is is what we call tab management in the
346. 1:12:04in the IT and, uh, services industry. Uh, normally what we recommend is, uh, six or seven, you know, possibly max
347. 1:12:12eight tabs active at any one time. And just estimating judging by the the the microscopic size of the icons in your
348. 1:12:20tab bar uh it it looks like you you have north of a 100 tabs open in a single browsing session. Uh this is
349. 1:12:27significantly beyond the the we would call that an edge case. Uh and uh we we would encourage you to on a regular
350. 1:12:34basis every uh two or three hours 3.35 hours is is when I do it. uh 3.35 hours I I I quit my browser completely. Uh
351. 1:12:45I'll get up and sometimes have a cup of Sanka and uh and come back to my my desk and everything's been restarted and then
352. 1:12:51uh and I'll start with a single tab and and then over the course of the next 3.35 hours try to just not allow the the the quantity of
353. 1:13:03tabs to exceed three or four. Sometimes I'll get radical in six, but the um more than a hundred not re When was the last
354. 1:13:13time you restarted? I don't know. Two weeks ago. Oh my. Oh my. Yeah, that's not going to work. All right. So, let's see if
355. 1:13:30I'll restart. I mean, I'll reload this. Actually, let me option reload this. So, we'll reload everything. [Music]
356. 1:13:42Then I'm going to go to project cardboard settings. Go to public. Go down to domains. Go back to project
357. 1:13:52settings. And it did not save. How do you save it? There's no button to save. There's no button. Help anybody.
358. 1:14:04Shut up, it Kyle. You don't do me in tabs. I don't know what to tell you there, Brandon. I can't seem to fix this. It's
359. 1:14:17It's I'm probably going to have to restart the browser, so whatever. All right, let's go to Manis. So, I've got
360. 1:14:25Where do I have it? If I go to docs.google.com, google.com. And yes, I am abandoning um whatever the [ __ ] was
361. 1:14:33happening over there in Hedra with trying to generate an image that didn't suck because a all the images sucked and
362. 1:14:39b I couldn't get them the right aspect ratio. So, [ __ ] it. Um docs.google.com [Music]
363. 1:15:18All right. Um Um, Kyle presentation feed your prompt. Okay, here we go. Here's our
364. 1:15:34presentation. Wait, did I do these right? Yes, I did. I got rid of the extra slides I didn't want. I'm going to copy all these slides. And
365. 1:15:48now we're going to go to Manis. So, for those of you that don't know Manis, it's going to look unassuming. Manis is not
366. 1:15:55super impressive visually, right? Manis integrates V3. Okay. All right. Nobody puts Kyle in the
367. 1:16:10corner. Uh oh. Yeah. No, I um I switched out to Ann Murphy was was texting me while I'm in the middle of a show. Annne
368. 1:16:20Murphy is texting me knowing I'm in the middle of a show expecting me to respond to her. Have you all met Ann Murphy?
369. 1:16:28You'll meet her tomorrow. We're doing a uh we're doing a live we're doing a podcast. She and I do this podcast, AI
370. 1:16:35readiness podcast, AI readiness project because we're getting ready for AIU. Okay. So anyway, they got they got VO in
371. 1:16:46this thing now. Get 300 credits a day for free. Okay, so here's Mannis. Looks like chat GPT, right? But wait, there's
372. 1:16:55more now. Do I don't need to pick slides, do I? It just does it. Vicki, what should I do here? Standard high effort. We don't need high
373. 1:17:08effort. This just make me a slide deck. Okay. Um, make me a slide presentation with builds
374. 1:17:23of the following. Um, generate original backgrounds and support images.
375. 1:17:38And if you feel slides are too wordy feel free to make more concise.
376. 1:17:56Uh uh uh uh. Put in your info and ask for a presentation. Okay, great. Perfect. Feel free to make more concise,
377. 1:18:03but never lose the main points or uh memorable
378. 1:18:18phrases. Here is the presentation colon. And then I'm going to go paste. And there's all my It didn't paste. Oh, it pasted it. Yeah,
379. 1:18:33it did. All right. Instead of here's the presentation, we'll say use the attached. All right. And bang, off to the races we
380. 1:18:45go. Now, Gen Spark can make slides, too. You should do that as a comparison. That's a really good idea, actually. Gen Spark.
381. 1:18:56Gen Spark AI super agent. Hi, name's Jen Spark. I'm Sparky. [Laughter]
382. 1:19:10Um, do I have my Let me go get my Manis prompt because I don't want to rewrite it. That took me You know what's
383. 1:19:18exhausting about AI? when you try to actually type things with your fingers and it like what did that take me 10
384. 1:19:25minutes to write those two lines. Geez, it's it's it's just you realize humans are the [ __ ] bottleneck here.
385. 1:19:34We're not the superior race. You got to just give it up. All right, go preview your slides over here. So, Gen
386. 1:19:46Spark is thinking. See, Gen Spark, I just like its interface better. But Manis, so I can I can open this thing up.
387. 1:19:55Manis is using editor. And then I can open up the window. So here's Manis's to-do list. Here's the little chat area, right?
388. 1:20:07So it said it's reading the file. It read my my text document and then it created the to-do in Markdown. That's the to-do right there.
389. 1:20:17And now it's generating visual assets for slides. So it's creating slide one image background. All right. So it's
390. 1:20:24doing its thing. And then GenSpark. What's Oh, it asked me questions. Okay. I see we're starting fresh with a clean
391. 1:20:35slate. You mentioned attached, but you didn't paste anything, didn't I? Oh, that's Oh, because because I copied
392. 1:20:45the wrong thing. I'm such a dumb dumb. Copy. I copied the prompt, but not the not the actual slides. Oops. Here are the slides.
393. 1:20:58Boom. Okay, go. [Laughter] That was funny. Perfect. Now we've got meat to work with. This is brilliant content about AI prompting. Love the
394. 1:21:11journey from it prompts to you prompts. Let me transform this into a visually compelling presentation that matches the
395. 1:21:20energy of your message. Creating some original backgrounds. Yeah, this is nice. This is nice. People, you see what's happening here?
396. 1:21:32I took my ugly Gen Spark slides into Gamma. So good. I I tried to do something in Gamma today and it didn't
397. 1:21:39work. it like they gave me like boring generic corporate slides. So, I don't know flipping which ones. Oh, that's
398. 1:21:47nice. Oh, nice image. All right, Manis is doing its thing. So, if you haven't seen one of these agents work, the these are two of the
399. 1:21:57more popular ones. Genpark.ai.ai and Manis.im. Genspark.ai. G N S P R A R K and Manisim
400. 1:22:13and they just go and do [ __ ] All right, so it's making HTML. It's coding. It's coding my slides right now. Try harder.
401. 1:22:30Ann Murphy. Ann Murphy live live texting me SMS messaging me while I'm on a live knowing that I can't answer on my phone.
402. 1:22:40She's she's an irresponsible digital digital person. We're not gonna we're not going to gender her one way or the other. She is
403. 1:22:52a digital person. I just gendered her. Yep. Ann's the best. So, tomorrow 400 pm Mountain time, 3 PM on Ann's Coast, um 6
404. 1:23:11PM on the East Coast, we have the AI readiness project podcast with Christian Robbins, who's amazing. You're going to love him.
405. 1:23:22So, come hang out with us, okay? Okay. Yeah, Christian's great, isn't he? Digital diva. Ann, I don't I I don't
406. 1:23:34think you limit Anne to just a digital diva. I think she's I she I think she's a much more expansive diva than that.
407. 1:23:47Which do you like more, Jen Spark or Manis? I think Manis is by far more robust, but the fact that Manis gives you
408. 1:23:59document files as MD files, as markdown files that if you don't know anything about computers, you have to [ __ ]
409. 1:24:06deal with. It's annoying. Genpark Gen Spark at least has at least one cranky Gen Xer in the UX department. So So I like I just like
410. 1:24:19Gen Spark. It's just friendlier, but it's not necessarily better. It's not necessarily better. Um, but Manis is pretty impressive.
411. 1:24:32Wonder why it's making square images. I don't I'm not grooving on that. Oh, y'all weirdos. We're not weird. ware
412. 1:24:49regular. Um, yeah, Brandon, just DM me on the AI salon and we'll I'll I'll get that that setting changed in Lovable. I I'm in the
413. 1:25:03Lovable Creators Network, so I can I'll hop over to Discord if I can't figure that thing out. Manis gives me PDFs. Oh, that's cool.
414. 1:25:14Yeah. I mean, the thing about these tools, they keep adding, you know, new features all the time. So, this is a really good category
415. 1:25:22um to pay attention to to the updates of these tools if if you like these tools because they're updating these things
416. 1:25:30like weekly. It's pretty amazing, man. Made one of my presentations so much better. Definitely not using it as a result. Wait,
417. 1:25:46Mannis made your presentation better, but you're not using it as a result. I don't know what you mean.
418. 1:25:56I told Manis to go all 44 Idaho County websites, pull landfill disposal rates. Boom. It worked. Yeah, it's these things
419. 1:26:08like here here's the thing about these these agentic tools right now. They are janky. They are non-intuitive. They're a mess.
420. 1:26:23But if you give them some grace, if you embrace the jank and learn what they do, the future of how we're going to use
421. 1:26:31computers is sitting inside these tools. And it's not just going to be the specific tools that you can do like
422. 1:26:39within the the the limited things that these things do. Now, we're going to have agents that are going to be like
423. 1:26:45this, but they use all the applications on our computer. So, like, you know how you've been meaning to teach yourself
424. 1:26:52Final Cut Pro or Logic? You're like, I want to make music. Well, we're going to be able to do things like go write a
425. 1:27:00song in Sunno, split it into stems, import those stems into Logic, um replace all of the pseudo generated
426. 1:27:08tracks with, you know, with uh you know, Logic tracks and and then remaster the song and it'll just go off and [Applause] do that.
427. 1:27:23We're not there yet, but like this is the this is like the the the the command line interface version of that. So, all
428. 1:27:34right. This thing looks like it's stuck. How's GenSpark doing? Still writing slides. Can I
429. 1:27:49feed your prompt? Where are you on the journey? Oh, I see what it's doing here. These aren't horrible. I mean, I think this
430. 1:27:59this slide's horrible. Stop asking the wrong question. But it's only doing seven slides and I gave it 11 slides. What the [ __ ] up
431. 1:28:14with that?
432. 1:28:36I prefer this way rather than going straight to gamma. I convert the file to Word if I need it. Yeah, I just copied and pasted the text.
433. 1:28:46I I guess I could download this as a Word document because I want to show you the presentation. I think it's a good
434. 1:28:56presentation, but you don't want to see it as a word document. All right, this is finally onto another image.
435. 1:29:09This is up to slide seven here. Let me do a new. Well, let me try gamma again because um Ann Murphy seems to think gamma is worth it.
436. 1:29:23Gamma gamma.app build decks instantly. Start for free. Uh uh uh. I love gamma for presentations. Choose theme login.
437. 1:29:39I'm getting sleepy. My eyes are getting sleepy. I don't know what y'all are doing to me. You're making me so I'm so All right.
438. 1:29:55Okay. So, here's a question. Create new. Paste in text.
439. 1:30:11Slide one through slide 11.
440. 1:30:33All right, there's my slides. All right. Optional card bycard control. Know what you want on each card. Add three dashes between
441. 1:30:47each section. Okay.
442. 1:31:12Oh, I don't think I can do this because I don't pay for it. I I think this can only do nine slides without me paying for it. That sucks.
443. 1:31:23I don't want to have to pay for [ __ ] [Laughter] Okay. Generate notes. Generate from notes or an outline. Summarize long text or document.
444. 1:31:36Preserve this exact text. Turn rough ideas bullet points summarize.
445. 1:31:55All right, let's try that. We'll we'll just keep my text. So now Fill in your outline. Shorten content to be concise and
446. 1:32:09presentable. Images fast flux. Oh, imagine three lumaf photon advanced models.
447. 1:32:23Flux context pro. Pay for it. [ __ ] you, man. I don't want to pay for anything, man. I'm heavy on my scene, man. Ideogram 3 turbo.
448. 1:32:37Imagine three. Oh, these are advanced models. They're part of plus. Oh, I see. Lumaf photon flash. Imagine three flash.
449. 1:32:49I don't know which one's better. You might get away with fewer slides if you don't specify the amount of slides you want. Ah, that's smart.
450. 1:33:02Ah, you're limited to generating 10 cards at a time on your current plan. And I have 11. Well, I'll kill slide I
451. 1:33:10can kill I can kill slide one. Trash. Nah, I'll keep slide one. I'll kill the I'll kill the conclusion slide.
452. 1:33:25All right. image style. Um,
453. 1:33:44analog paper craft combined with
454. 1:34:00claymation and we're going to do flux fast or we're going to do artistic styles. Yeah, we'll do that.
455. 1:34:32Okay, continue. See, now I got to pick a theme. This This is what always bugs me out, man. It bugs me out, man.
456. 1:34:45I don't feel like picking a damn theme. Although, I kind of like that one. Like everything just looks like [ __ ] to me.
457. 1:35:00Am I just bitter? I'm bitter, right? He's a little bitter. He's a little bitter. No, he's Well, he doesn't he
458. 1:35:10doesn't really know know what he's doing. No, he doesn't. And but he's angry about it. But yeah, he started the
459. 1:35:19channel, right? So it's called the AI learning lab and he's like the professor except if he had a professor that didn't
460. 1:35:24know what he was talking about and really had no credentials or qualifications, it would it would be like that.
461. 1:35:31And then but he but he's confident, right? It's it's like it's like it's like a mansplaining channel. Like you
462. 1:35:38come there and he'll mansplain anything. You can ask him anything, he'll answer it. He's good at that. But he doesn't
463. 1:35:46I'm sorry. What? Oh, why do I watch it every night? Um I I I'm just I'm going to go pick another theme now.
464. 1:36:03Do I want green? No, this is about prompting. But it's about humanity. I don't know people. I don't know what to say.
465. 1:36:15That's kind of cool. Is that cool? Is that cool? It's not really cool. That's a little cold. A little warm. That's jokey. That's awful.
466. 1:36:37[Music] Pink is fantastic. That's awful.
467. 1:36:51All right, we'll do that one. Whatever the [ __ ] Generate. All right, let's go back to Manis. I'll just pick one for [ __ ] sake.
468. 1:37:04Thank you. An ADHDers watching ADHDers unable to make decisions
469. 1:37:22because you're special. Let Gamma do its thing. All right. I did. I am. All right. Mattis is still thinking. Is Gen Spark done? Oh, it did
470. 1:37:3311 slides. Okay. So, let's go. Let's go watch our view and export. Feed the pro feed your prompt. This is
471. 1:37:46this this slide obviously needs to go. We need to we need to have like a prompt thing with a mouth in it, you know, like
472. 1:37:56a prompt uh like a prompt the prompt hole. We need the prompt hole with a mouth around it. It'll say feed your prompt
473. 1:38:04and then amplify yourself and your team with AI. So this is the new this is the new presentation. Uh except it's not oh you got to go
474. 1:38:14right. Okay. So first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to ask the the audience where they are on the five stages of AI
475. 1:38:20adoption. That'll be fun. And then I'm going to say you got to stop asking the the the wrong question. So, we've got to
476. 1:38:28switch from asking, "How do I get the most out of AI?" to asking, "How do I get the most out of myself with AI?"
477. 1:38:37AI is not a genius. It's an amplifier. And you get to choose what it amplifies, right? It's not the genius tool. You're
478. 1:38:47the genius. All it's doing is amplifying whatever you put in the prompt box. And the prompt is hungry. The prompt is just
479. 1:38:56sitting there ready to eat. It'll devour anything you feed it. So if you give it what I call an it prompt, like you treat
480. 1:39:04it like a tool. You treat it like an it. You're going to feed it a generic input and then you're going to get out hollow,
481. 1:39:10generic, forgettable results. And this is what most people do. The reason most people who give up on AI give up on AI
482. 1:39:18is they treat it like an it. Like ah just go make me a marketing plan. and they're like, "That's a stupid marketing
483. 1:39:25plan." And they quit. As opposed to a you prompt, that thing is hungry. And if you feed it you, your intent, your struggle, your style,
484. 1:39:36your stakes, generative AI comes to life, right? This is when the magic happens. So, so you you feed it things
485. 1:39:44like your goals, your challenges, your voice, your dreams, your questions, your your ideas. So a you prompt doesn't need per um
486. 1:39:57perfection. It needs presence. It needs you. So you got to feed your prompt you. All right. Um so what is feeding the
487. 1:40:05prompt? So feeding a prompt isn't about knowing the right words. It's about offering the right context. So an IT
488. 1:40:10prompt would be something like this. Write a blog post for designers. Right? We've all written that prompt. Write me an email.
489. 1:40:21No. A you prompt. I'm a confident early career coach that used to be insecure. Write a blog post in my voice for
490. 1:40:29entry-level designers focusing on confidence using a tone that's warm but direct. Better prompt, better result,
491. 1:40:38right? Make sense? And then here's the thing that I heard this on. It might have been with Ann Murphy in in one of
492. 1:40:46our podcasts. I think it might have been. Was it who was on last with us anyway. She said, "Before you prompt," it might have
493. 1:40:56been Tracy, the safety lady. She said, "Before you prompt, take a moment, close your eyes, and ask yourself questions like, what am
494. 1:41:04I trying to make? Why does this matter? Who's this for? What does success look like?" Like, think about what you want
495. 1:41:13out of what you're intending to do with your your chat GPT. So rather than thinking like you know what's the best
496. 1:41:21way to write a pro prompt just check in with yourself about what are you trying to accomplish? What difference do you want to make in
497. 1:41:29the world before you write anything? Just check in with yourself. And then we've created this thing called
498. 1:41:39a prompt ladder. And the prompt ladder is basically like you can start out with like a snack. Like you're going to feed
499. 1:41:45your prompt. You could feed it a snack. Write a headline about remote work. Or you could step it up and make it a bit
500. 1:41:52more of a, you know, bit more of a meal. You add some tone and some audience and some outcome. Write a playful headline
501. 1:41:59about remote work for a blog aimed at startup founders, right? So, you're putting a little more meat on the bone.
502. 1:42:05The next one is um uh layer in goals and structure. So, write three possible headlines for thought leadership blog
503. 1:42:14post on remote work. aimed at a skeptical startup. Skeptical startup founders using a tone that's confident,
504. 1:42:21persuasive, and informal. Um, and then do these things work? No. Oh, that's a drag. Huh. So, I've got multi-step. So, so
505. 1:42:34when you get to the buffet, it's things like write one prompt for an LLM, write another prompt for an image generation
506. 1:42:41tool, write another prompt for an audio tool, things like that. For project planning, which do you prefer, Manis or Gen Spark? I don't do a
507. 1:42:50ton of project planning. I would think Manis would probably be better at that than GenSpark, but Gen Spark's pretty
508. 1:42:56flipping good. I like what I'm doing here where we're sort of comparing these different tools is not bad. Um, it's not
509. 1:43:02one and done. So, one of the myths about um about AI is you push a button and out comes content. No, no, no. Be the producer.
510. 1:43:12When chat GPT gives you stuff, look at it. Is it any good? If it's shitty, tell it it's shitty. You be like the mini
511. 1:43:22Rick Rubin in there figuring out what what you like. Um, and then this is a shift from writing prompts for me as an individual to us as
512. 1:43:33a team, from me to we. And then, uh, takeaway challenge, do it 10 minutes a day. So anyway, there it is.
513. 1:43:43slides are a little wordy. I'll give you that. That's how my 82year-old dad works with AI.
514. 1:43:59Um, all right. Do we have any other Did Did Gamma give us something? Feed your prompt. What's it doing? Oh, I
515. 1:44:08guess it's Oh, it's writing the presentation. [Music] All right, it's doing its thing. This
516. 1:44:23looks cool. Like what you created? Did it do 11? Oh, it did 10. It didn't do the style I gave it. Feed
517. 1:44:36your prompt. Amplify yourself and your team with AI. Present. It's pretty clean. Where are you on the journey?
518. 1:44:52Oh, I have a question for anyone that knows gamma. Can you do builds? So, like if I click on this thing, can I
519. 1:44:59make can I make these things build? anyone can you send to me so I can learn and
520. 1:45:14say on the podcast? Yeah, I'll send this to you. You mean the the the eat eat your prompt or feed your prompt presentation.
521. 1:45:31Look, feed the prompt. I like that image actually. [Laughter]
522. 1:45:45What the prompterly eats? I think you can just regenerate in a different style. Okay, I did. I'd like it, too.
523. 1:45:59All right, I'll sh I'll share this somewhere. I I I want to get it like in some sort of usable fashion. Yeah, this is pretty slick.
524. 1:46:15But like that thing killed killed my examples. So, in fact, I think what I should probably do, let me go back and start over. Create
525. 1:46:26new. Paste in as text. Paste. Oops. Well, we'll paste that. I'll go here. I'll copy that. We'll go here.
526. 1:46:45I'll do that.
527. 1:47:07real work is boring. You know that, right? Yeah. Yeah. We're here, Kyle. We're We're very well aware that what you're
528. 1:47:15doing right now is not compelling live streaming. I've I've watched Twitch battles that were were more exciting than this.
529. 1:47:29They they were playing gardening simulation games and it was more exciting than this, Kyle. [Music]
530. 1:47:47I don't think I need the slides numbered here, do I? I don't think it matters. It'll just eat that [ __ ] Right. [Music]
531. 1:48:02So, the reason I'm redoing this is I had it shorten make the slides more concise, which is good, but it took away all my examples. So
532. 1:48:14I think I will edit myself after. Okay. Generate preserve the exact text and then
533. 1:48:29images. I chose imagine three. Let's try luma this time. Um let's see. Torn paper craft
534. 1:48:47luma flash images format preserve. So we're going to preserve what we've got. Optional instructions. Um give slides builds
535. 1:49:06generate. Ah now I got to pick a theme again. Come on, people. All right, we'll do the gold one. We'll do it live. We'll do it live.
536. 1:49:18[Laughter] I already like gamma better. Yeah, Gamma's slick. Like I I I will give Gamma that it's slick.
537. 1:49:28I I would say in terms of slickness, Manis is the lowest. Manis is like a three out of ten on slickness, but Manis
538. 1:49:35is like a nine out of ten on holy [ __ ] they got some stuff going on. Genpark is like a five, maybe a six on slickness
539. 1:49:47and kind of like an eight on they got some [ __ ] going on. And then gamma is like high slickness, right? eight 8.2 on slickness
540. 1:50:05and then, you know, six, five, six on on [ __ ] it's doing. But I don't I don't use these tools a lot, so I really don't know.
541. 1:50:16There's there's probably people in here that know this [ __ ] way better than I do. [Music]
542. 1:50:31Feed your prompt. Amplify yourself and your team with AI. Yes, rather. Where are you on the AI readiness journey?
543. 1:50:48Stop asking the wrong question. What the prompt really eats devours anything you feed it. What is feeding your prompt? It's about context,
544. 1:51:00not keywords. Yeah. See, I just don't like I feel like a lot of the things that this does are like really traditional
545. 1:51:14presentation things, which I don't like. All right, whatever. Manis, is this done? Manis creation as an interactive website
546. 1:51:31slides view. All right. All right. All right. Mana, stop showing off already.
547. 1:51:46How do you go into presentation mode? Do you Vicki, what do you do with these once they're done in Manis? Oh, download.
548. 1:51:57Convert to Google Slides. All right, let's [ __ ] try that. Cool slides. All right. All right. Manis man is coming in flexing hot.
549. 1:52:16Download it to Google Slides. Yeah, exactly. I'm cooking while Kyling. That's That's unfortunate. Kyle, have you seen Chat GPT voice
550. 1:52:29getting frozen? No, but there's a new chat GPT voice. So, Danielle had this months ago, like two months ago.
551. 1:52:38Danielle got the new voice. I just got it. So, we can we can talk to I know we got to go. It's getting to be late, but the [ __ ] is this?
552. 1:52:50It put white text on a white background. Seriously, Mannis, you can do better than this. All right, whatever. Let's change it to
553. 1:53:02How do I do this? Uh, shape fill color none. Where's none? Uh, transparent. No.
554. 1:53:17Fill color gray. Fine.
555. 1:53:45All right, that's horrible, but whatever. Let's go into presentation mode. Where is it? Uh, slideshow.
556. 1:54:02Feed your prompt. Yes. Carry on. Rather. Yes. Carry on. Carrying on. Rather. Yes. Cheerio. Pip. Oh, what have I done? Down.
557. 1:54:17Oh, this is something that Manis does. Vicki, have you noticed this? It programmed [ __ ] off the slide. Oh my god. All right. Well, listen.
558. 1:54:33Here's the good news. The good news is I have a presentation that it can at least recognize the structure of. The
559. 1:54:41bad news is I think I actually have to do my own [ __ ] presentation for tomorrow because these are all uglier than [ __ ]
560. 1:54:51Let's see if Let's see if Gamma's going to save the day. Come on, Gamma. You can do it. [Music]
561. 1:55:14Oh, yeah. We saw this one. This was the one. Yeah, we saw that. Ain't nobody got time for that. All right. Uh, Manis, we did the new Gen
562. 1:55:26Spark. No, the old Gen Spark. No, we're good. We're all All right. I did have to request edits, but I did
563. 1:55:37look at the slides before I downloaded them. Yeah, that see you having actual executive function is kind of a flex.
564. 1:55:50Random thoughts by TK plus AI uses Google Slides. Photoor is another presentation tool. years ago I used to.
565. 1:56:00Are you crispy? I'm totally crispy. Man is coming in hot. Maybe the geekst thing Kyle has ever ever said.
566. 1:56:12Oh, good lord. Good people. All right, I will get this in some sort of form that's sharable. I think I'll probably just get up early
567. 1:56:22tomorrow morning and go to work and just just build build something. I I might start with one of these as a base, but I
568. 1:56:28I think even that it's going to be more work to just I don't know. I don't know. We'll see. But I got to give this
569. 1:56:36presentation tomorrow and I don't know it. It's a typical ADD thing where rather than just presenting something I've
570. 1:56:46presented before, I'm like, I know, I'll just whip up a little something new. Oh, and by the way, Ann, so you'll you'll appreciate this. So,
571. 1:56:59I was told I was going to be speaking on a Thursday for this Denver, whatever it is, hub thing. And then I get the invite at the

573. 1:57:13Thursday on my calendar. Oh, no, it's Wednesday. So, I'm speaking from 3 to 4 and then they have a conference room set up for me.
574. 1:57:25So, I'm going to literally like hop off stage at 5 minutes to 4, go into a conference room and log into
575. 1:57:33StreamYard. So, I should be I should be good to go. Do a retro presentation. I might. I I don't know what I'm going to do yet.
