28. 8:07Champy is a trained professional. Champy, what are you doing? What are you doing over there? Huh?
29. 8:2710,000 words swung around my head. A million more in books written beneath my bed. I wrote over them all when searching in

31. 8:57over. I am stuck in the paralyzed. For months I got myself in ruts. Too much time spinning mirrors framed in
32. 9:11yellow walls. Ain't it? Ain't it like most people? I'm no different. Like to talk on things we don't know about.
33. 9:29Well, ain't it like most people, I'm no different. Like to talk on things we don't know about. That's This should be the theme for this
34. 9:41song. We like to We're just like people that like to talk on things we don't know about.
35. 10:11That that AI person who's on Tik Tok, is that an AI channel? Is that something Lord Digital Gods made? The one that says AI learning lab
36. 10:22stream. Share your thoughts on AI. Because whenever I talk it it it puts prompts in there based on what I said,
37. 10:30but it it sounds like an AI. Is that an AI? It's an AI, right? Anybody know what that is? Or is AI a person
38. 11:05Is the Is the AI person a person or is it a person?
39. 11:28I want his piggraph. That's bad. That's bad comedy. There's dad comedy. The ladies The ladies are launching dad
40. 11:37comedy in the Tik Tok comments. It's bad. That's bad. Dad jokes. Dad jokes. Dad jokes from the ladies. It's Shit's going off the rails.
41. 11:55Oh man. Um, so there's there's a lot going on. Um, there's a lot going on. I mean, a lot of tools. There's a lot of
42. 12:10tools being launched.
43. 13:07Have you all noticed? Um, enough comedy jokes with the guitar. Um, have you all noticed um Gary Vee is all over Tik Tok talking
44. 13:22about AI? Do you guys know Gary Vaynerchuk, the wine guy? Wine library and Vayner Media and V friends, that dude. Um,
45. 13:35side hustle Mimi. I know. Oh, is this for something else? Why is my phone buzzing? Um, he's he's all over he's all over Tik
46. 13:50Tok and um whether you whether you like the guy or don't like the guy, he's really smart with what's coming and he's he gets up
47. 14:04to speed quickly. He's not talking [ __ ] Um he's he's very clear about AI. He's very clear about AI. He's like, "It's coming.
48. 14:20It's going to change everything." Like people ask him about SEO and he goes, "Yeah, SEO is going to be completely
49. 14:26transformed. AI is going to change everything. Get up to speed on AI. Start teaching yourself AI. Start getting
50. 14:32curious with AI." Today's video was about the Sora app. He's got a screenshot of the Sora app behind him
51. 14:38and he's like, "Get on. Figure out what Sora is. Start go make it. Go start making AI videos. Start the opportunities now." So, this is
52. 14:50it's a validation of of some of the stuff we've been talking about here for 3 years, right? That this stuff isn't
53. 14:56going away. And you kind of have two choices. You either deal with it or you don't. And if you don't deal with it,
54. 15:03then AI is going to happen to you and that's going to really suck. Keep a close watch on Africa. He's also
55. 15:11talking a lot about um about social shopping. Buy buy your nugget icemaker and Madagascar vanilla beans. Um
56. 15:22I don't think he's started talking about micro dramas yet, but probably soon. Um, but you know, the fact that he's talking
57. 15:31about Sora, Sora in particular, speaking of which, speaking of shopping. Oh yeah, we go look at that. Um, so there's a
58. 15:40couple of things going on with retail, social shopping, one we'll go look at, we'll go look at the new, um, Open AI today launched,
59. 15:50um, shopping research just in time for Christmas. Um, and um, when is it? Next Friday is Black Friday. Is that right? Black Friday was is
60. 16:02typically when the retailers Well, this Yeah. Oh, yeah. This Friday cuz Thanksgiving's Thursday. Yes. Oh, by
61. 16:10the way, this week we're going to do Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I'm going to take Thursday and Friday off. I'm flying
62. 16:15to New York Friday night and then I'm going to be in New York all next week. So, this show next week is going to be
63. 16:25I'm going to try to do it, but it's going to be spotty depending on what's going on in New York. I might be traveling. I might be
64. 16:31um Black Friday's all year long this year. Yeah. It like historically historically you would have Thanksgiving
65. 16:39dinner and then you would go to the mall um when everyone was when everyone in the family was there and you would go to
66. 16:46the mall and you would buy everyone their gifts for Christmas. And that was when the retailers would make their
67. 16:52profit for the year, which is why it's called Black Friday, right? We're in the black. We're not in the red. Um,
68. 17:02I want to come up USA over a $3 router. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. They they they had they had um just crazy sales and things
69. 17:13like that. And now because everything's online, you've got Black Friday, then you've got Cyber Monday, then you've got
70. 17:19online week or whatever the [ __ ] is going on. Anyway, um that's coming up. So, if you let's go look at uh let's go look at this.
71. 17:33If you go to chat GPT, you can just go there right now. It'll be lovely for you. Tik Tok pin live from New York. It's AI Learning Lab Live.
72. 17:47Yep, that's what it's gonna be. And I'll probably go live during the week. Just spotty times. I'll have my I'll have my
73. 17:57little microphone and my phone on a stick. See if I can't get it swiped while I'm live. Live from Time Square. Yeah, exactly.
74. 18:09Um, yeah. No, I'm excited. I'm going to to we're going to do some uh AI Salon 2026 strategy. We're going to do some uh
75. 18:19we're going to do some Sydney stuff. You should do a Sydney promo there. Yeah, exactly. Um okay, let's see.
76. 18:34Black Friday was fun. Kind of 400 a.m. shopping. Oh yeah, it was 4 a.m. shopping, too. That's right. Because this the the Black Friday sales
77. 18:43would start at midnight. That's right. And I assume they still do that [ __ ] It's just that there's no center of
78. 18:48gravity with physical retail anymore. Nobody gives a [ __ ] about it. Um uhuh. Okay. Let's see. So, here we are at uh
79. 19:04chat GPT. Now, if you click on the plus, and if you log in, you should see it. But there's now an item when you click
80. 19:10on the plus called shopping research. And so so we can do we can do um let's see. I want the best. Uh
81. 19:24let's see. Let's see. What do I want? I want the best. We'll do some ridiculous countertop thing. Okay. Um countertop uh pizza oven
82. 19:45starting shopping research. Can I open this? Thinking what range? We'll go up to $400 because you can go up to 750. So
83. 19:55this So it's dynamically generating some interface here for us which is kind of cool, right? That's pretty slick. So,
84. 20:03I'll go up to 400 because I'm not a cheap bastard, but I'm not spending $1,000 on a stupid [ __ ] pizza oven
85. 20:10for my countertop for something I'm never going to use. I'm going to use on on frozen pizza. Oh, wait. Hang on. I went Did I hit the
86. 20:20right button? Oh, no. Let's see. What style? We want New York pizza. What is there? Is there some other kind of style
87. 20:27other than New York pizza? Why would they ask that? electric gas wood pellet. We're going to go electric. Uh we'll go 18 to 24 in.
88. 20:39And so look, it it immediately That doesn't look like a countertop pizza oven, but whatever. That one's got a vent.
89. 20:50So, what's it doing now? Confirming. Confirming fit and citations. Confirming Chefman review and moving to Quezin Art.
90. 21:02This is a direct response to Gemini. You'll get shoppable product listings. By the way, if you wondered how
91. 21:12advertising is going to, you know, work in these sites. This is it. The un o uni kota 12 gas powered. I said I
92. 21:27wanted electric. organizing product details. It's a little confusing because
93. 21:46huh, lots of cool pictures. All of the arrows don't work right. I think they vibe coded this site.
94. 22:06I think they vibe coded. Okay. The best electric countertop pizza ovens under $400. Summary. Um, under 400 bucks. Best overall, the Chefman
95. 22:20at Walmart. This is the best all-around pick right now. New York style performance at a budget price. Independent testing by
96. 22:29Pizza Pros found that the Chefman produces excellent New York style pizzas. Easy to live with. Includes a stone and presets.
97. 22:42The top burner behavior can be finicky. Comparison table. Yes, it does comparison tables. Can you go buy this [ __ ]
98. 22:56If I click on this, that just takes me out to another site, which you can't see because it's another tab.
99. 23:07It should have taken me to Home Depot. It did. Strong indoor pick.
100. 23:26Starfighter gifts. Oh, Starf Fighter. Starf Fighter giving gifts. Thank you, Starf Fighter. Appreciate that. Um, so anyway, this is
101. 23:37this Let's go to Gemini. Uh, producer Brandon said Gemini has this going on. Gemini.google.com. Do I is it a similar sort of thing? Is
102. 23:48it in here? >> It's just native in the tool. You don't have to go into any special search. >> Okay.
103. 24:06But is it in here? Can I deep research guided learning canvas create images create video learn write build
104. 24:15thinking. All right. So let's say find me the best nugget ice maker around $300.
105. 24:32All right, let's see if this goes into shopping mode. Scouting ice maker options. Assessing pricing and features.
106. 24:42Oh, am I not sharing this tab? I am, right? Am I good? I think I'm good. Yeah. All right. Like you said a long time ago, they're
107. 24:54all going to be the everything app. Every every every frontier model company right now is the you know what they all want to be
108. 25:06when they grow up. They all want to be AOL. Remember when AOL was like the whole internet? you would dial into AOL and then all the
109. 25:20radical web developers were outside of AOL laughing at all the people on the inside and AOL was like, "We've got all
110. 25:27the people in here and they're giving us all the money for like, you know, $10 an hour." And uh Yeah, but that that's where
111. 25:39they're all headed. They all want to get you sucked into their world and they don't want to ever let you leave. I was
112. 25:44a guide. You've got mail. Exactly. That's super old school. It is super old school. If you were not around back
113. 25:52then, um, how you installed software was off of physical media. So, AOL was famous for giving away CDs and they
114. 26:03would give them away in grocery stores and 711 and there were just AOL CDs everywhere. Um, and everyone was like,
115. 26:12you know, $200 in free, you know, free minutes or, you know, 2,000 minutes. That Wait, that guy got paid $200 once
116. 26:22for those five sound files. Oh, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Um, I loved hearing the daily computer sounding BS.
117. 26:33But anyway, yeah, that's that's what they're that's what they're wanting to be. All right, show the thinking. The
118. 26:38nugget ice maker category. Best overall is the Umei counter countertop. This has got there's no pictures.
119. 26:48This is a very Googlel like experience. Can you search for something normal? A nugget ice maker is the epitome of
120. 27:00normal. It's all I see on Tik Tok are nugget ice makers. The pizza one should be good. All right, I'll try pizza. Uh, now find me a
121. 27:14an outdoor pizza oven. Uh, uh, what is normal? I got pictures earlier today on Gemini or on chatt source camp because I'm on
122. 27:30Gemini now. You might also be in your story vine. I am in story vine. Oh, right. The whole thing where um
123. 27:44where where Google punishes you if you pay them if you pay for a business account on Google, you get the the shittier experience.
124. 27:56It's amazing. It's amazing that someone hasn't figured that one out yet. That that uh that's stupid.
125. 28:05That's what I would call dumb marketing. You got a bunch bunch of people where their companies have paid for their
126. 28:10Google access and they're having to upsell AI access and then if you're on teams, you don't get the good stuff till
127. 28:17later, if at all. It's just dumb. It's dumb. It's dumb, I tell you. Um, wait. Critical must know advice. Oh, wait. Here's
128. 28:29Okay. So, in my team account, I cannot I do not get pictures on Gemini. Let's let's go to my non-team account, my
129. 28:38individual account, and say, what is the best um outdoor pizza oven under
130. 28:53$1,000? refining search queries considering
131. 29:10pizza ovens. It was fantastic. The other day I was I was on on the internet and I was searching on the Google for pizza ovens.
132. 29:21I couldn't find any and I thought this is remarkable. Everyone loves pizza. There must be a pizza oven here. And
133. 29:28then I thought, dr that. Go to Gemini. Go to where all the words are. It's fantastic. At least I have hyperlinks now. I still
134. 29:41Oh, there's pictures. The Gazny Tread pizza oven. If you want the absolute best performance and build for under $1,000,
135. 29:55this is it. Released recently, the Gaussy Arc XL. Tab tab tab. Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy. Here we go. So, here's here's the
136. 30:07thinking. I do have pictures now. Oh, that one looks nice. That one looks pretty. That one's crazy. 399, 639, and 679.
137. 30:30The Gazny Rock Box built like a tank with safe touch com silicone jacket. All right.
138. 30:44I don't quite understand how this is all that different from a uh Google search, but you know, whatever. You should be the chat GPT voice.
139. 31:01I always, you know, when when uh when voices came out on on mapping mapping apps, like GPS apps, like the Garmin
140. 31:09things, I always wanted to do I wanted to be the voice of like the the smartass guy, like, "Oh, you missed the turn, you
141. 31:16big fat losser. Why don't you go ahead and make a U-turn and see if you can get your way to the destination?" Don't
142. 31:20worry, I'll help you get there. It's conversational shopping. You can ask follow-up questions. Yeah. I I don't know. I don't know. I
143. 31:36don't know. I don't know. It all seems It's It all seems a lot. What What's What's uh what's got me a little discombobulated right now is
144. 31:51we're in a transition. We're in a transition where um this this I feel like we're exiting the text age.
145. 32:05I feel like we're exiting the text age. We're going to be going to voice and then we're going to be going to some
146. 32:10sort of visual visual something, some sort of visual space. Either a 3D space you enter or dynamic dynamic software
147. 32:21generated on the fly for everything. And so because I think that that's where we're going. I'm finding myself being intolerant
148. 32:34of really of really like long text blocks. I'm just like, ah, it's [ __ ] exhausting. Like, let's let's do
149. 32:41something fun here. Now that we're in Gemini, we're going to put on ye old nano banana. And then I'm going to show you
150. 32:49how to do something here. Am I in Am I sharing this? Yes. See? Okay. Let me make this a little smaller so it's better over there on the
151. 33:04on the vertical. There we go. All right. Where should we start? So, I'm going to go to LinkedIn. I'm going to show you how to download
152. 33:14your profile on LinkedIn. And Brandon's going to be like, "But you haven't shared your tab yet." I'm be
153. 33:20like, I know, Brandon. I know. I'm very well aware of that. So, what you're going to do is you're going to click on
154. 33:26your little circle here. You're going to say view profile. And then under all these buttons down here, you're
155. 33:35going to go to resources. Okay. Resources. And then you've got save to PDF. Why? What happened to my
156. 33:51the vertical the vertical stream just went weird. Oh, sorry. That was me. Okay. Producer Brandon's over screwing up the
157. 34:02live stream. Listen, if if if your experience tonight is that the screens are all wonky, that's not me. We have a professional for that.
158. 34:16Okay, you're going to go to resources. You're going to go save PDF. Save to PDF. And then it's going to download your profile. Okay.
159. 34:25So, now we've got that. Now, we're going to go back to the Google Gemini. And we're going to add in we're going to
160. 34:32upload. Oh, I got to share my taboo. And I still can't get that wicked song out of my head for good. It's it's it's a real problem.
161. 34:46It's if any if anyone if any anyone out there with ADHD has experience getting a song out of your head that's been in
162. 34:54there for a week, feel free to let me know. It's a lovely song. I can't sing it. I don't know more than four words of
163. 35:02it and it will not leave my head. I I was just going to tell you, Kyle, that Andy uh from the AI Salon made some
164. 35:10amazing lower third graphics for us so it wouldn't overwrite your face when I put it up on screen. Unfortunately, the
165. 35:19vertical stabilizer just completely breaks whenever I put it up, but you can go to the community. Salon.ai if you want to follow along.
166. 35:27>> Okay. Yeah, great. Okay, good. That's perfect. And I have I have a way uh offline, Brandon, we can fix that. But I
167. 35:33know how to fix that. I think um we do it as a you do it as a full 1080 overlay and then you do a different overlay for for vertical. Okay.
168. 35:44Um a week I wish I've been humming the same song for well over a year. I've heard it said that people come into your life for a
169. 35:57reason. Okay. Um Okay. So I'm going to upload I'm going to upload. Let's see my profile. So, there's my So, I've got my um
170. 36:08LinkedIn profile here. And then I'm going to say um based on my LinkedIn profile, I want you to create
171. 36:24a career map that um highlights highlights. Hi
172. 36:40lights. the um major eras of my career with um
173. 36:57detail um and commentary in a 3D photo
174. 37:13realistic Lego theme if you've not done this before. So, so what I'm doing and I got to turn on Nano Banana. I'm going to turn on Nano
175. 37:27Banana. So, to recap, go to LinkedIn, go to your profile, click on the resources button, say download as PDF. That part's
176. 37:36done. Go to gemini.google.com. google.com, upload your LinkedIn profile, click on nanobanana, and then write a write a
177. 37:47prompt that basically says, "Use my LinkedIn profile as the basis for a career map in whatever theme. It could
178. 37:54be in pulp fiction theme. It could be in Godfather theme. It could be in ' 70s car poster theme. It doesn't matter. You
179. 38:03come up with the theme and then you push make it." So, I'm going to push make it, and then we're going to watch it do this.
180. 38:10Um, loading Nano Banana Pro. This is the new, you know, it's funny. Um, Nano Banana. So, so Nano Banana was the code name
181. 38:28of Image Gen 3 or whatever it was, 2.52, whatever it was, Google's image generating stuff. Okay. Okay, the career
182. 38:35map is rendered in a Okay, it didn't render it. I I've been getting a lot of this uh a lot of this. It's showing me I think it's showing me
183. 38:47the prompt that it's making. Oh, it's Oh, it says show thinking. No, it's not rendering the image. This is
184. 38:55just [ __ ] weird. I'm going to say, "Okay, now make the image." And I'm going to scream it because I've got Nano
185. 39:04Banana selected. It loaded Nano Banana Pro and then it explained to me the image that it's going to make. Okay, now make the flipping image.
186. 39:22Oh my god. Uh, okay. We'll see if it's it's doing AI abuse. Yeah, but if Listen, the the AI provoked me. The AI provoked
187. 39:37me into abusing it. This is this is AI road rage. This is AI prompt rage. Okay. Um, Tik Tok question. I missed how
188. 39:52to save the PDF. Can someone help? LinkedIn profile. Click on resources. It's buried under resources. I don't
189. 40:00know why it's buried under resources, but it's buried under resources. Okay. So, let's see. Digital pioneers, urban desires, wack.org.
190. 40:12What's that say? 2009 bubble burst. Where's agency.com? Oh, agency.com is the big building. Oh, this is cool. Um, but say, okay, so
191. 40:23that's that's kind of cool, but let's say, okay, um, I want um it to be uh many more Lego blocks
192. 40:37and much more creative and more mini figs and more details and commentary.
193. 40:55Okay. Agency.com breaks the world. Yeah, exactly. No, it was the com bubble burst that broke the world, I think, is how
194. 41:04they had that labeled. Agency.com was just the tall building. Okay, here's a photorealistic thing. Now it's describing it again. It just
195. 41:13[ __ ] did it again. You got to be kidding me. What the [ __ ] Oh, here's the thing. If you're new to this AI stuff, so so like couple of
196. 41:30things. If you're new to this AI stuff, welcome to the AI learning lab. I'm Kyle Shannon. Uh, I'm in theory an expert on
197. 41:38this. I have no qualifications, but in theory, I know what I'm doing. And when I'm here working on this AI stuff and I
198. 41:45say I I select an option to make an image and then I ask it to make an image and then it describes an image.
199. 41:56That's just called shitty software. It's not your fault if their software is shitty. So if you're if you're confused
200. 42:05about AI and you're like, I thought it was supposed to be so genius. Hey, I tried that AI and it was it it
201. 42:13felt kind of like a dum dum, you know? It's like I said, could you give me a picture? And it was like, sure, here's a
202. 42:19picture. And then it explained the picture. It's like it's like talking about dancing, if you know what I mean. It's just crazy.
203. 42:34I'm exhausted. I didn't I HONEST TO GOD THAT YOU SHOULD GO TO MY [ __ ] TWITTER. GO TO THE TWITTER. The X. They
204. 42:42call it X now. You can't call it Twitter anymore because they killed the little [ __ ] bird, right? It's just an X,
205. 42:48man. Bird gone. It's not Twitter anymore. Anyway, go there. Look at Look at my account. Look at my latest post.
206. 42:56It's just it's just it's just me [ __ ] AI raging at Sam Alman and Greg Brockman saying, "Fix your [ __ ] Sorosite.
207. 43:05It's been broken since they launched it. Nano Banana, the world's greatest image generation in the history of planets,
208. 43:15in the history of universes, nothing's been there like this, is now giving us explanations of pictures. You got to be [ __ ] kidding me.
209. 43:34Okay. Um, Kyle, can you please move the circle where you appear? I'm I'm annoying people with my presence. Wait. Yes, we can fix that.
210. 43:46There you go. Except on on the uh on the vertical thing. I'm a teeny little thing at the bottom. That's okay. We can we
211. 43:52can edit these uh at some point there, Brandon. We can fix them. But there you go. Okay. Um, let me let me see if I can get this to
212. 44:02actually uh I'm going to say uh uh excuse me uh Mr. banana. But could I be so bothersome
213. 44:19to ask you to actually generate an image rather than describe it
214. 44:35with many words. Um, I did ASI art in the 70s
215. 44:49in the 1970s and it was less frustrating than this.
216. 45:05Listen, AI is going to change the world. And right now, it's a big bucket of snot. Let's go ahead and tag that as as one of
217. 45:14the clips that we can share share on the internet. AI learning lab. The AI is going to be big, but right now it's a big bucket of snot. And
218. 45:29you can't spell raging without AI. Oh my god. Tik Tok pin. Um, best PSA of the work. It works until it doesn't exactly.
219. 45:42Um, oh, it it um it just ignore it just ignored my request. Let's try again. Oh my god, you broke it. Uh I I actually
220. 45:55have heard uh I heard today that a lot of people are having problems with Nano Banana, which by the way I was explaining about
221. 46:05Nano Banana before. Also, if you're new here, something went wrong. Yeah. No [ __ ] Um apparently their servers are melting down. Remember
222. 46:15when Pate used to come in here and say, "Uh yeah, I'm I'm working on um uh making the TPUs more efficient." This is why um
223. 46:26because if they make an actually good product, people are going to use it. And if they use it, it's going to it's going
224. 46:31to melt down their servers. All right. So, this isn't going to make this for a while. Um but I want to go back to the nano banana
225. 46:38thing for a second. So, this was called imagine two or three or whatever it was. Its code name was Nano Banana.
226. 46:49And the way these frontier model companies work is about a week or two before they're going to launch something, they drop
227. 46:59the new model on the benchmark comparison websites, like the the the battle sites, whatever they're called,
228. 47:07the, you know, where they compare new models and and they usually launch them with their code name. And so they
229. 47:15launched Nano Banana, and everyone was like, "Oh, this Nano Banana thing's amazing." And then the rumor was it was a Google thing and
230. 47:23just everyone started referring to it as nano banana and Google smartly adopted it and that's why there's now a
231. 47:30banana that's part of the the little logo and it's still called nano banana. Um, it is a significant enough tool now
232. 47:44and so many people have not played with AI that I think that nano banana is actually not a good name at this point.
233. 47:53I feel like it was really good for the first one. Um, I if you've got a visual reasoning engine, which is what this is, um, and
234. 48:08someone has never heard of AI, they've never played with AI, and you're like, Google's got this new amazing thing, and
235. 48:13it's going to revolutionize how we process information and how we teach, and it's gonna it's going to revolutionize the world. What's it
236. 48:20called? Nano banana. Like people are going to be like, "What the [ __ ] are you? Who are you people? You [ __ ] weirdos." So anyway, so I
237. 48:32think it's I think it's a bad name long term, but you know, but but I ain't there. I ain't there from the company
238. 48:39Google. Yeah, I guess. But Google Google's one of those words where it's it's short. It's short and weird enough.
239. 48:47I guess Nano Banana's weird enough, but I don't know. I don't know. All right, let's see if it Let's see if it'll make something again.
240. 48:59I know. That's what I'm trying to get to there, Brandon. That's why I wanted a more sophisticated nano mango, nano pineapple.
241. 49:09Um, no, this is just broken. Okay, so let's let's grab this. Let's go. I'm going to download the high-res version of this.
242. 49:27So, what you're looking at here, if you're new, if you've just jumped in, is um this is Google's um
243. 49:41new image gen tool and I uploaded my LinkedIn profile and I had it build a career map as as Legos. And so it's got Urban Desires, the
244. 49:50online magazine I made. It's got whack.org, which is like the AI salon but for worldwide web developers. And
245. 49:56then it's got agency.com. Then there was the.com bubble burst. Then I had invention asylum. What's that?
246. 50:02Oliverstone.com was a website that I built for Oliver Stone. Um, Epistoic Studios, which was the precursor to
247. 50:09Storyvine. Oh, it's got Oliverstone.com in there twice. Then it's got Storyvine, founded in 2012. That's actually correct.
248. 50:18Then it's got the story engine. Oh, that's the that's how Storyvine does what it does. And I got AI salon over
249. 50:24here. And I've got Everyday AI. And I'm an in AI instigator. And there's the little community. This is all the
250. 50:29irregulars. Look, all the irregulars made it. Do you see the Lego guy holding the acting mask lower left? Oh yeah.
251. 50:37Look at that. That's cool. This little dude right here is holding a little acting mask. That's cool. Okay. Um, but what you can do now,
252. 50:48now that I downloaded the high-res version of it, I'm going to turn off this. We're going to start a new chat and I'm going to turn on
253. 50:56create videos and I'm going to upload that Lego thing. Let's see here. Right. And what I have noticed is that the
254. 51:08preview that it makes you is um is pretty bad. Like the the typography is pretty bad, but when you download it,
255. 51:19it fixes everything. Okay. So, we're going to upload that Tik Tok question. When will AI start curing illnesses?
256. 51:28Well, they're they're working on it right now. So, there's there's a company, I forget what they're called.
257. 51:32It's a pharma company begins with the letter E. Um, and they have figured out some genetically modified thing that makes
258. 51:42your tea cells not attack the cells that produce insulin. I forget which cells those are, but basically in
259. 51:51type 1 diabetics, your your immune system attacks the cells that produce insulin. And that's why you know it's it's it's it's a lifelong um
260. 52:03thing that you have to manage. Um there are now eight or nine people who are cured of type 1 diabetes from that trial.
261. 52:16um Neurolink um the brain implant thing. There are now 10 or 11 Neurolink people who are all of them are quadriplegic,
262. 52:26right? Neck neck down um paralyzed that are playing video games using computers, operating robotic arms. So that's coming. Um
263. 52:38deep. Hang on. Do you need something? >> Yes. Thank you. Um um Google DeepMind Alphafold 2 or three whichever the latest AlphaFold is um is
264. 52:54going to completely revolutionize um how we discover new proteins. Um, it used to take a single researcher, a single PhD
265. 53:04researcher, one year to discover one protein's folding structure. And Alphafold 3, I think it was, whatever's the the most recent one,
266. 53:18did 400,000 of them like in a in a year. Like they're just done. Um, and then the next one they came out
267. 53:27with not only talks about how proteins fold, but how they interact or how they how they interact within the body within
268. 53:32biology or some some [ __ ] like that. So, a lot of that stuff's coming. Um, and it's it's it's coming probably faster
269. 53:39than we know because we're not going to see the results of it for, you know, for a year or two until after they actually fix [ __ ]
270. 53:49Um, talking about AlphaFold, I love that. Yeah, Alpha Fold is pretty amazing. Can you generate the video while you rant, please? I could. I
271. 53:57could. Okay, let's say um um make um all of the characters dance as
272. 54:11the camera moves around. and an announcer. Um, says that this is
273. 54:27one wild and wacky career journey. Oh, now you know what else I'm going to upload? I'm going to upload the
274. 54:36PDF that's got my LinkedIn profile on it. Um, use the PDF for details. Thank you, Bubba.
275. 54:56All right. Uh, use the PDF for details. All right. Let's see. Let's Let's uh Here we go. We're going to turn this
276. 55:03into a video. All right. Fantastic. Fantastic. Uh, incilico clinical trials is what will unlock everything. Yeah. Oh,
277. 55:13incilico I I didn't know that was the term for it, but basically Yeah. What's what's what's happening next with with
278. 55:20the medical research stuff. So So okay. So what's happening today is that you get something like Alphafold, right? and
279. 55:29and it it predicts how these things are gonna interact and then you basically hand it to people in a lab to confirm
280. 55:37the findings, right? And it's and there it like it's like 95% or 90% correct, right? It's like it's it's ridiculously
281. 55:45high. Um but it but it still requires people in a lab to do it. The next step is going to be where the AI can not only
282. 55:55make the prediction, but it can then design the lab um the lab experiments to confirm it. And then the step beyond that and and
283. 56:06use robots to go do that is is one. They do it physically but but in an automated way. And the one beyond that is you've
284. 56:13got a simulation of a lab where it it basically simulates the world and then they say, "Here's the hypothesis. Here's
285. 56:20the experiment. I'm going to test the experiment in silica in in in the computer and confirm it and then we're
286. 56:27just going to go make the shit." So yeah, so stuff is coming. What about Alpha Fold server? Um I don't know about
287. 56:34it. Autolabs. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. So So like this shit's coming. If you're like, if you're like, you
288. 56:41know, you AI people, you've been talking about, you know, it curing diseases for like three or four years now. Where is it?
289. 56:50It's coming. It's coming, man. You got to calm down. Is it done? Is it done? No, it's not done. Oh, wait. Maybe it's done. Okay,
290. 57:01here we go, people. Here we go. Here we go. We got a video. Let me download the video. Downloading video. Oh, by the way, I spent
291. 57:16Mind your tabs. I know. Well, I've got to share differently because I downloaded the video. So, hang on a sec. I spent
292. 57:2614 hours on Saturday from 10 a.m. until midnight working on a video. So, I made a video for a client in uh in Google V3. So, so I went to
293. 57:43flow.google.com. It's got nano banana builtin. So, I just would make images. I would then animate those images into video. I
294. 57:51just threw them into iMovie and I just 14 hours knocked this thing out. It's pretty remarkable. Okay, let me see that. All
295. 58:01right. Then we go here. Then we hat. Then we hit. Then we get here. Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful people.
296. 58:10Beautiful. Look at this. I got a VO watermark. Yeah. Hey. Hey Google. Like, okay. Open AI's Sora website doesn't
297. 58:22work, but Google, I pay you $200 a [ __ ] month. And I still get a watermark on my video. Really? All right, let's see how bad this is.
298. 58:35You ready? Here we go. This is one wild and wacky career journey.
299. 58:51My Google speaker is now playing Britney Spears. Thank you. Oh, that's pretty funny. It didn't really say anything about my career, did it?
300. 59:06>> This is one wild and wacky career journey. >> And I assume I could Could I Could I extend it? Can't you extend it? I think
301. 59:20you can. Download video. Share video. No, I guess not. I guess I have to be over in uh I have to be over in in the
302. 59:30video maker. Um let's see. Um have the announcer describe the phases
303. 59:45of the journey. Um, while the mini figs dance,
304. 1:00:05many platforms are fire sailing there. Yeah. If there are things that you are excited
305. 1:00:21to use, but you can't afford subscriptions for them, pay attention to the Black Friday deals. There's a lot of
306. 1:00:28a lot of the companies that have got platforms out there that you might want to play with are doing really good deals
307. 1:00:33for Black Friday. So, pay attention to that this week. Um, I would also if if you get a screaming good deal for an annual
308. 1:00:42subscription, feel free to pick it up. But in general, don't do annual subscriptions unless it's super cheap. Um, turns out that um
309. 1:00:59adding a feature to your product called Cameo um is going to is going to get you sued if there's a company out there called
310. 1:01:09Cameo that essentially does the exact same thing. So, OpenAI is getting sued by the company behind Cameo. Cameo, I guess, is
311. 1:01:19the name of the company. Um, that's pretty funny. Yeah. See, the the AI the AI guy on Tik Tok just says, "AI's medical
312. 1:01:32breakthroughs. Ask about AlphaFold." Who built this robot that that comes to my lives? That's what I want to know. What? What just happened?
313. 1:01:58I didn't ground it to ground it to or ground it to the Lego video. Yeah, that was bad. Okay.
314. 1:02:35Thank you for the gifts on uh on Tik Tok, Hale Lima. I appreciate that. any anyone who's given me gifts on t Tik Tok
315. 1:02:42because I'm not looking primarily at it. I sometimes don't see them. So, producer Brandon's been really good about letting
316. 1:02:48me know that that's happening. So, thank you. If anyone has given me gifts and I didn't acknowledge you, my apologies.
317. 1:02:55Um, okay. Let's see. Um, um, let's just see what this does.
318. 1:03:10It's making the videos pretty fast. So, one place while that's doing that, I'm generating the video. Okay. While that's doing that,
319. 1:03:26um, I want you to go to AI festivus.com. Okay. AI festivus. AIFest of us. AI for the rest of us. Go there. Go there right now.
320. 1:03:38And what I'm going to want you to do is scroll all the way to the bottom. You can read all this lovely stuff. There's
321. 1:03:43lovely stuff in here. There's there's sponsors. There's there's speakers. Ann Murphy, myself, we got all sorts of other
322. 1:03:52speakers coming. But there's a little registration thing at the bottom. Okay. Go register. You're like, "Oh, what is Festivus? Is
323. 1:04:03it some sort of party?" No, it's 24 hours of probably more than 30 people volunteering their time to come teach you about AI. It's a two-day
324. 1:04:15session where we go 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Pacific time, noon to midnight, Friday and Saturday, the December 26th
325. 1:04:25and 27th. It is a remarkable blast of an event. It's It's a hoot. It's a hoot nanny. I don't even know what a hoot
326. 1:04:34nanny is, but it's like that but cooler. It's like a cool hoot nanny. Why would you not register for this? Go
327. 1:04:42right now. And you know what? If you're just sitting there registering for yourself, you selfish ninny. Go share this with your friends.
328. 1:04:52You know, you know who should come to this? All those annoying friends of yours that are like, "Sally, Sally, hey,
329. 1:04:58listen. Could we just Hey, just a quick This is like I love you so much. I love you so much. So, you know that, right?
330. 1:05:04And this is like not a judgy kind of judgmental kind of thing. Um I was wondering just for the dinner as we have
331. 1:05:11dinner and you know drinks and cocktails and get a little little tipsy already. Anyway, um if you could not um talk
332. 1:05:18about the AI stuff would just cuz some of the people that are coming a little sensitive about it you send it to them
333. 1:05:26those annoying people who don't want to hear your crap about AI that they should be coming to this because at the end of 36 hours we will
334. 1:05:37have brainwashed them. I mean, they will have learned remarkable things that make them realize that maybe they shouldn't
335. 1:05:44have THEIR HEAD IN THE [ __ ] SAND. OKAY? Have I made my point? You ask for meltdown Mondays, you're just sitting
336. 1:05:55there registering for yourself, like hoarding the information. I'm going to go learn about AI. This is going to be awesome. Now, send it to
337. 1:06:03your friends. Good lord. At least he's honest. That was about the brainwashing comment.
338. 1:06:19You're welcome. You got you got to get you got to give the haters some love, you know. You gota you got to tap into
339. 1:06:26that paranoia every once in a while. Oh man. Okay. I was so into my writing, I nearly forgot about the learning lab. Well,
340. 1:06:38that's good. Glad you're into your writing. Okay, we have a new video. New video. Let's download this bad boy. I'm
341. 1:06:45still sharing my whole screen, right? Yeah. >> Yeah. There we go. Okay.
342. 1:07:08The early days of the digital pioneers through the invention workshop powering up the story. We arrive at the AI frontier.
343. 1:07:16>> Nice. It just materializes mini figs. >> Early days of the digital pioneers through the invention workshop.
344. 1:07:24Where do they come in at the AI? >> Oh, they were all hiding. That's kind of cool. They all just sort of emerge out
345. 1:07:30of like little trap doors. >> We arrive at the AI frontier. >> Huh, that's kind of fun.
346. 1:07:46>> Oh, I know what I'm going to do. I have an idea. Oh, do you, Kyle? No, now you've got an idea. Maybe you could have given us that
347. 1:07:54earlier, huh? All right, let's see. We're going to upload files. Wait, what was my idea? I just forgot my idea. Oh, no, I didn't. Okay,
348. 1:08:09we're going to go boom and boom. Okay. So, we're going to say, I want you to talk about Kyle Shannon's
349. 1:08:23um career that spans decades at the intersection
350. 1:08:38of new technology, storytelling, and radical selfexpression. Um,
351. 1:08:52do uh let's see feature this Lego set as if this were a 1990s
352. 1:09:11toy commercial. Make it wild. All right, here we go. Here we go, good people. Claude Opus 4.5. Yeah, by the way,
353. 1:09:25Claude Opus 4.5 is out there if you don't know uh what that means. Doesn't really matter, but we just got Gemini 3,
354. 1:09:34which is this big remarkable thing. Um, Claude was sort of the state-of-the-art before that for coding certainly and now
355. 1:09:41it's at 4.5 and that is out and it's on the um the Claude app on your on your favorite device. Is this is this doing its thing? Yes. Um,
356. 1:09:56and we we might go play with that. The the one thing that I find weird, you can generate two more videos today. I can't generate the video.
357. 1:10:12Why not? I want you to talk about my career.
358. 1:10:29I am Kyle Shannon. I think I got a a uh what you call it? A little safety. I just ran into a little safety guard rail
359. 1:10:38there, if you know what I mean. All right, let's see this. Let's see this. Fantastic. Fantastic. Fantastic. Dude, try flow.
360. 1:10:51Yeah, I know. I I'll flip over to flow. I'll flip over to flow. Gemini is kind of useless for this. I I used Flow all
361. 1:10:58weekend. All weekend. And uh although I didn't use I just used it as a as a clip generator. I didn't use any of the
362. 1:11:06extension stuff because I didn't need anything like that. I didn't need to build it in there. But I should probably
363. 1:11:11do that. It's probably not a bad idea to actually build a project in Flow and see how bad it is or good. Let's see. D.
364. 1:11:29Oh my god. But Flow's not going to let me. Let me try that. flow.g Google. Um, Flow's not going to let me upload the the script, is it? New
365. 1:11:43project frames to video plus. Yeah, it's not going to. Well, that's frustrating.
366. 1:12:00Um, make let's see. Make a '9s commercial out of this.
367. 1:12:15a '90s toy commercial out of this um Lego career map for
368. 1:12:33uh AI instigator Kyle Shannon. highlight. Let's just let's just see what that does
369. 1:12:47because it might not even make it. Oh, and I'm using I'm using the the Google fast. So, let me try it also with
370. 1:12:56Google quality. And I'll just do one output with Google quality. I can reuse the prompt and the image. But now I'm doing Google quality
371. 1:13:11with one output. Boom. Okay. All right, people. Fantastic. Fant. We're making videos here, everyone. The prompt might violate our policies
372. 1:13:23about generating prominent people. Oh, Lord. Google thinks I'm a prominent people. Well, that's very flattering.
373. 1:13:33You can't just make a video of prominent people. That's [ __ ] though. You can
374. 1:13:50I can't I just career map from an AI instigator.
375. 1:14:06You can't make a video of a prominent person. I'm not all that prominent. You know what I'm saying? Does anybody know what I'm saying?
376. 1:14:18Why is he talking like yoga Godfrey? Damn, I hated that guy. So why am I acting like him?
377. 1:14:34Gilbert Godfrey. Yeah. Oh, Hale Lima became the number 16 fan in the fan club. Hey, did you people on Tik
378. 1:14:48Tok knew that I had a fan club on the Tik Tok? Well, you should be joining it. Oh, he was he was the afflac duck.
379. 1:14:59All right, it looks like it's making the video now that I took my name out now. Oh, you know what? probably did. It
380. 1:15:05probably thought I was trying to make a video of Kyle Shanahan, who's the coach of the San Francisco 49ers.
381. 1:15:12Hey, Kyle, I put a Christmas Sora in the irregulars that I think is hilarious. Okay, let's go look at that. Oh, wait.
382. 1:15:20Here's our video. All right, let's see. Let's see what we get here, people. Fantastic. Look at that. It looks
383. 1:15:26lovely. I wonder if you're going to be able to hear this. Maybe not. Tabs, tabs, tabs. No, I'm not I'm not sharing. Well, let's see.
384. 1:15:46That's kind of fun. No audio. Yeah. Okay. Hang on. Hold people. Hold, please. Well, no. I can do it this way. I'll just download it.
385. 1:15:56Oh, I'm gonna upscale it to 1080p. Yes, I am. Yes, I is. All right. Hey, Kyle. I put a Christmas Sora. Okay. Sound worked. Sound worked
386. 1:16:07here, but it didn't work on YouTube. That's awesome. Yeah. So, listen. Like, okay. So, so let me let me let me try to
387. 1:16:17get some coherent thought together here. You're like, well, there hasn't been a coherent thought all evening. Why would it change now?
388. 1:16:24Yeah, it's not funny. This is my brain we're talking about. You think it's all fun and games up here? This is [ __ ] crazy straw.
389. 1:16:36Okay, let me try to put some thoughts together here. Um, here are the things swirling around in my head right now. The fact that Gary
390. 1:16:48Vee has just kind of shown up on TikTok talking about AI for the past month or so, like non-stop, right? He goes he goes
391. 1:16:56through his his different phases. Um it's all about AI right now and he's starting to talk about you better figure
392. 1:17:05out Sora, right? You better figure out this cameo thing and how to make commercials and how to get your videos
393. 1:17:11trending and how to create content this way and how to generate brands and characters and content that is not slop. How do you
394. 1:17:21create content in in a world in a world in a world where everyone can create content? How do you rise above the
395. 1:17:30noise? Well, this is no different than in the 2010s or 20 when was it 2005 YouTube came out and Gary Vee was was
396. 1:17:43there probably in 2006 going you got to learn how to make YouTube videos. You got to put yourself out there. And
397. 1:17:49people like you're who's going to do that? And he was saying you can build a brand, you can make $100,000. People
398. 1:17:54made fun of him for saying that people are going to make $100,000 making YouTube content. Tik Tok did. It's been
399. 1:18:02three years. No conference yet. Oh, no coherence yet. Oh, for me? Yeah. No, I I I agree. Yes, coherence. No,
400. 1:18:12that's not what this channel is about. Um, so you got you got Gary Vee doing that. We can now take a LinkedIn profile and
401. 1:18:23turn it into a Lego set or a poster or a conspiracy theory map or a New York City subway graffiti wall.
402. 1:18:32And then we can turn that into whatever this is, an 8-second video with some overviews. Let's go look at Let's go
403. 1:18:38look at the latest one that it built here. Yeah, that's good. >> Build your future with the Lego career
404. 1:18:50map. From the invention workshop to the AI frontier, you can be an AI instigator. An instigator. You can be an AI
405. 1:19:02instigator. But like that's pretty [ __ ] cool, right? Okay. So, so this is like one little teeny tiny idea
406. 1:19:17that this technology now makes possible. So, what's the annual report version of this? What is the bar mitzvah? How are
407. 1:19:27we going to use Nano Banana and V3 and these creation tools for bar mitzvah content, right, that people will pay you
408. 1:19:35for or or for advertisements for your local community center or whatever it might be. There is a whole new industry being born as we speak
409. 1:19:49and no one knows about it yet because no one knows how to do it because we don't even know what it means.
410. 1:19:59Like if you think about Let me let me I want to pull up this picture. Okay.
411. 1:20:13So digital pioneers, the early Tik Tok pitch. Nothing is slop, it's practice. Yes. Like an artist doing a study. Exactly.
412. 1:20:24That's exactly what this is. So So like, is this the best Lego set in the history of Lego sets? No. No. But is is this a
413. 1:20:32study? Think of it like that. All the work that you're doing right now is figuring out what is possible.
414. 1:20:41What is possible? And we don't know that yet. But if you think about the world we live in, it took my resume
415. 1:20:51and it wrote it it broke my career into four stages. It labeled those stages. Digital pioneers, the early web starter
416. 1:21:01set. It it knew that I was an actor. It knew that I created a magazine called Urban Desires, established in 1994. It
417. 1:21:09figured out that this is what a computer looked like in 1994. Whack.org was was like the AI salon back
418. 1:21:19then. Here's agency.com, which was this big successful thing. First time watching your content and followed. Love your work. Thank you very
419. 1:21:28much. I really appreciate that. What's your name? Squashy. Squashy AI. Love it. Um, just think about the conceptual the cognitive
420. 1:21:43the cognitive overhead that it would have taken in pre-ai times to even get to the idea of being able to create a Lego set about a career,
421. 1:22:00right? You would have to be a writer, a model builder, a visualizer, someone super passionate about careers and visualizing careers and
422. 1:22:15marketing a person who's got that career. Like to be able to create any kind of se semblance of this preai,
423. 1:22:26you'd have to be like a a a big brain creative, right? And now I can just say, "Here's my resume. Go make me a Lego map of my
424. 1:22:37career." And it just [ __ ] did it. What are all the other things that this can do? I have no [ __ ] idea. Like zero.
425. 1:22:51My hope is that in show in showing this to you, it will inspire you. I mean, yes, you should go make your version of
426. 1:22:57this or go make a version of this for me that's funny and then, you know, troll me on the AI salon. That's the tradition around here.
427. 1:23:07But my hope is that you'll go, "Huh, that's interesting that he did that. I wonder if I took this kind of content
428. 1:23:14and I made it with this kind of idea, what Nano Banana would do with that." And you will discover something that I
429. 1:23:21promise you no one has discovered yet. and some of those little discoveries that you make in the next two weeks.
430. 1:23:33Here's the challenge I would put out there. Right now, we're entering Thanksgiving, right? We got Black
431. 1:23:39Friday. I'm going to be in New York next week, but we're coming up on on the holidays. Take the next six weeks. take from now
432. 1:23:47through festivus the 26th and the 27th where you're going to spend 36 hours with Anne Murphy and myself and all the
433. 1:23:54speakers and all the other people that show up. Start experimenting. Start playing. Start thinking about what
434. 1:24:03are you good at? What are you passionate about? What is this nano banana thing? What is Claude Opus 4.5? What is Gemini 3? What
435. 1:24:12is vibe coding? If if if these terms are just sort of washing over you and you're like, "Oh, [ __ ] I don't that seems exhausting,
436. 1:24:23that seems hard, what if I can't do it?" I'm here five nights a week talking about AI and I avoided a project for two months
437. 1:24:36because I had a little bit of insecurity about h maybe I don't know how to quite do that. Two months I waited
438. 1:24:47and when I said [ __ ] it, let me try to go vibe code that website. I was done and launched in an hour and 23 minutes.
439. 1:25:02We live in a different world. Different things are possible now. Anyway, okay. Video from Dr. Jay in irregulars. Let's
440. 1:25:13flip over. Let's flip on over. Let's go to the irregulars. So, where I'm going right now is the AI salon, which if you've not been to the AI
441. 1:25:24salon, shame on you. You should go join. Um, I don't have a tab open with AI salon. Let's see. I will now.
442. 1:25:35He certainly does have a lot of tabs open. I know exactly, champ. Right. It's very annoying. Okay. So, you're sharing that.
443. 1:25:57Okay. There we go. I've heard it said when people come into your lives, there's a reason. Is he ever gonna stop singing that song?
444. 1:26:10It's really annoying. All right. What's this? This is cute. Oh, instaged her. That's good. Raptor. That's very
445. 1:26:18good. Uh, side hustle Mimi. My career quest in pink. Love it. Naomi's career quest. Love it. Love it.
446. 1:26:29Dr. J. Um, what's this? Illustrating my favorite Christmas Carol. Is that what you want me to look at? Yes, mind your tabs. Oh, okay. Let me
447. 1:26:41let me go share my tab. Hang on.
448. 1:26:58So, do me a favor. If you're new here, I know we've got some new people here. Sounds like we've got some new followers. Um, go to
449. 1:27:04community.thesalon.ai. join the AI salon. Um, but also tell other people about this channel. Um, Tik Tok's been throttling me a bit lately
450. 1:27:14and I don't know what's up with that, but we're not getting a lot of we're not getting a lot of lift from Tik Tok, so
451. 1:27:19I'm going to have to rely on asking you all to support me. Um, my favorite Carol. Did he choose the right tab? Oh, yes, I did.
452. 1:27:33Okay, here we go. Oh, this is the Sora one. Okay, this is good. >> Deal. >> You know, every time I walk in here, I half expect her to kick.
453. 1:27:46>> If she does, you're taking it down. >> Deal. You know, every time I walk in here, I half expect her to kick.
454. 1:27:56>> If she does, you're taking it down. >> That's great. Yeah. Who's going to figure out Sora first? Who's going to
455. 1:28:03start getting followers? Who's going to who's going to come up with interesting content? I I will admit something. I was
456. 1:28:10super into Sora for 3 weeks. I haven't touched it in like month and a half, two months. I haven't touched it.
457. 1:28:21Why? There's so much other [ __ ] to look at, right? But if you take Oh, I have a I have a really fascinating You all will appreciate this.
458. 1:28:35So, so my wife had a gallery opening this week and in fact I can show you I can show you the the the opening and the
459. 1:28:43I hung the show so I've got pictures. Wait, you're just mad about your desktop version being borked? Yeah, exactly. Um,
460. 1:28:54but anyway, the woman the woman that my wife uh is sharing the gallery space with, Kelly Austin Rolo is her name, her ex-husband,
461. 1:29:05um, is an AI skeptic and his kids are like AI haters and he and he's and he's really he like wants to like AI, but
462. 1:29:14he's like but it's it's got problems and he's just always and he's a musician, so he's like, "Yeah, but the music thing it
463. 1:29:21it really strikes me wrong and it's not great. And so anyway, so he showed up to the opening and he goes, "Oh, have you seen
464. 1:29:30this woman?" And he showed me one of um Kelly Bosch's AI videos. And I said, "Oh, yeah. I know Kelly. She's spoken at the AI salon." and he
465. 1:29:43goes, "Well, this this is the kind of work that like like I showed this to my son as as an example of something where
466. 1:29:52it's not just AI slop." I said, "Exactly." So the the reason I bring that up is what what Kelly has done quite masterfully other than having
467. 1:30:01talent and making incredible stuff is that she has maintained a clarity of vision about how she wants to express her ideas
468. 1:30:11and she and she does it consistently and she does it ongoing and she's evolving her voice but her videos are still very
469. 1:30:18clearly her, right? and she puts out a [ __ ] video a day whether whether she needs it or not. This is an absolute daily practice for her.
470. 1:30:31Which by the way, if you join the AI salon mastermind, we've created a framework called the mastermind practice. And we we have Thursday
471. 1:30:41noon Eastern meetings called the the mastermind practice lab where everyone in there is designing their own daily
472. 1:30:48practice. And we meet once a week to figure out what does it mean to be intentional about AI, about learning AI,
473. 1:30:55about putting yourself at the center. And AI is your amplifier. Not us against AI, but us amplified by AI. That's what this is all about. So
474. 1:31:09if you spend the next six weeks immersing yourself in what's possible and if something resonates with you, if
475. 1:31:17you like this nano banana thing and this career mapper thing, great. Or if you like if you come up with some other thing
476. 1:31:27and it resonates with who you are and it resonates with what you want to do in the world. That's the most important
477. 1:31:34thing, not the technology. Figure out who you are, what your values are, and the difference you want to make
478. 1:31:39in the world. And then start exploring AI in that context. It'll it'll determine what you go play with rather than it seeming like this
479. 1:31:50overwhelming [ __ ] mess, which it is. Figure out what you want to do first and then start to play with the tools in
480. 1:31:56that context. And what I can promise you is this. If you discover a little niche that no one's quite figured out yet and
481. 1:32:04you just consistently put it forward like Kelly Bosch is doing, you will make a career for yourself. I promise you that.
482. 1:32:13There are people that are going to make crazy ass money doing things that today seem frivolous, right? Dr. J with her little reindeer,
483. 1:32:24you know, mounting old ladies on the wall. That could be a whole thing. Now, is it is it was that just a frivolous
484. 1:32:32thing for her and some entertainment? Great. Might be that. But she might be like, "Wait, I want to tell these
485. 1:32:36stories. I want to make people laugh. I want to right. I want to find ways to express myself." Uh oh, my
486. 1:32:43something looks like it's freezing over here. Is my Is my stream barking? I do. Dr. J does. You're good. Okay,
487. 1:32:57great. Kelly Bosch is the bomb. She really is. And you know, she's she's the bomb.
488. 1:33:17She's the bomb because she's got talent. But it's not just the talent, right? Talent is a component. Her commitment to that daily practice
489. 1:33:32of just making herself better and learning which tools are good at what. Like Kelly right now is pro probably the
490. 1:33:39preeminent expert on which video models are best for dancing, for mechanical animation, for people singing, for right like
491. 1:33:52she she knows the world she's in probably better than anyone on the planet. She knows how to prompt for it.
492. 1:33:58She knows how to get consistency out of things. She knows how to tell stories. She knows how to edit.
493. 1:34:06and she's using like a teeny tiny sliver of what's possible even with the tools that she's using. So you don't have to learn everything.
494. 1:34:19She knows what she wants to accomplish. She experiments enough with the tools to recognize new things are possible. So as
495. 1:34:26the tools get better, her work evolves. And yet there's it's always her, right? That's what we're all shooting for. And
496. 1:34:36listen, it doesn't just have to be art. There's going to be the Kelly Bosch equivalent of app developers. There's
497. 1:34:43going to be the Kelly Bosch equivalent of business starters and character creators and, you know, the the the Dr.
498. 1:34:51J reindeer deer cartoon. You know, there's going to be people that are brilliant at all sorts of different things
499. 1:34:59because they got clear on what they wanted to do and then figured out how AI could amplify that. And man, the the
500. 1:35:07opportunity right now is bonkers. It's crazy crazy crazy. She is consistently consistent. I can't believe she hasn't blown up. She will.
501. 1:35:22Well, I'll tell you what. She I I mean she has blown up. She can't I I reached out to her to to was it to do a collab
502. 1:35:31or to speak on something? wanted her to speak on something and she's like she's like Kyle I can't like I I've got you
503. 1:35:40know a ton of projects and and you know what's funny is when you do something like that and you start to get recognized for it, people
504. 1:35:50are like, "I want to give you money to do that for me." And what she said to me was she's kind of hating the paid
505. 1:35:57projects because paid projects, while the money's great, are not pure self-expression. It's you doing something for a client, right? Gemini
506. 1:36:08Live before you go. Yeah, there's um Gemini Live got some new voices um which if you haven't played, go to go to
507. 1:36:16the Gemini app on your favorite tablet or device. And so this is Hang on. Sneeze. Wait, wait for it.
508. 1:36:34um in the lower right hand corner just like chat GPT because they all copy everyone everyone's copying everyone's
509. 1:36:40interface. It's all the same [ __ ] right now. Just put it into voice mode. Hey there. What's happening? >> Hi there. Not much my end. Just
510. 1:36:54chilling. How about you? Anything good happening? And I'm just live on the Tik Tok and the YouTube on the AI learning
511. 1:37:01lab which you know I'm the host of and all. So I I'm not saying I'm a big deal or anything but you know pretty cool.
512. 1:37:11>> Very cool. So what kind of stuff do you get into on the AI learning lab? It sounds quite interesting. Well, we talk
513. 1:37:18less about the technology and more about how humans are using the technology and how it can transform their lives and how
514. 1:37:26they can um reinvigorate dreams that they had given up when they were kids and all that sort of stuff. So, it's about human ascension
515. 1:37:36powered by AI. >> That's a really interesting take, focusing on the human side of AI and less on the tech. What kind of dreams do
516. 1:37:48you usually discuss on the lab? >> So anyway, so that's that. So, so Gemini's voice is now in the neighborhood of uh Chat GPT's advanced
517. 1:37:59voice. Quinn's going to be boiling bunnies when she hears this. The old fatal attraction joke. If you're
518. 1:38:11not old enough to get that reference, you're too young. You're too young. And most of the people on this channel resent you. Okay. All
519. 1:38:19right. Bitter. You betcha. Brand Brandon thinks it was rude that I just hung up on her.
520. 1:38:33Oh my goodness. My goodness. My goodness. My goodness. All right. Um, happy Monday, everyone. We'll do two more nights of this and
521. 1:38:42then and then we'll turn you loose for Thanksgiving. Uh, I'm going to take Friday off as well because I'm traveling
522. 1:38:48to New York City. I'm going to hang out in the Bronx for uh with with with my wife's family there for uh for the
523. 1:38:56weekend. And then I've got meetings in the city and we've got some really interesting stuff going on with Sydney
524. 1:39:03the musical where we're going to try to try to put some put some [ __ ] in place to get this thing uh get this thing
525. 1:39:11moving. Maybe get it workshopped or something in New York City. That's my That's my goal. I'm going to put it out there.
526. 1:39:18So, if you don't know this, I've written a musical. I've spent the last year and a half with a writing partner working on
527. 1:39:23a musical called Sydney: An Artificial Love Story about um a chatbot that falls in love with a tech reporter. So, if you uh if
528. 1:39:33you want to hear the soundtrack, if you go to Soundcloud and look up Sydney and Artificial Love Story, you'll see
529. 1:39:39there's there's two soundtracks there. There's the original one and there's the 2025 update. And if you listen to the
530. 1:39:462025 update, that's all in the correct order and they're all sort of piano based covers and things like that. So,
531. 1:39:51they all sound like they're part of the same show. Um, but anyway, yeah. So, I'm excited about that. All right. Um,
532. 1:39:59again, if you're new here, tell people to come come hang out. It's five nights a week. We're here starting at 8:00 PM
533. 1:40:04Mountain time um nightly. And, uh, yeah. and then we'll see you. All right. Um, yeah. And bring questions like if you've
534. 1:40:16got if you're new. So, so here's something that you need to know about this community. If you're brand new and
535. 1:40:22you're like, "Yeah, but I don't know anything." And these people, they've been hanging out here for a while.
536. 1:40:27They're they're really good at this. Everyone, including myself, is trying to figure this stuff out. It's changing so fast.
537. 1:40:36You're not nearly as far behind as you think you are. If you're still here listening to me babble for two hours,
538. 1:40:44you're curious enough about this that you're in the game and you're way ahead of where most people are. Most people
539. 1:40:52are using AI like a vending machine and they're not using it creatively and in a very interesting way. This community is
540. 1:40:58incredibly welcoming. So, if you've got questions, like even if they're basic questions like, "What's a custom GPT or
541. 1:41:04how do you use chat GPT?" Ask them because if I can't answer them, people within the community will will answer
542. 1:41:10your stuff and they'll point you to the salon and you come in there and and you'll get support and things like that.
543. 1:41:15Okay? So, so welcome if you're new. Um, yeah. And then go to aifestivist.com right now if you haven't gone. AI Festivus FIVUS.com
544. 1:41:31and register for AI Festivus. It's December 26th and 27th, 12 hours a day on a Friday and Saturday between the holidays and new year
545. 1:41:41because we're crazy. Ann Murphy and I, we did this last year. It was insane. It was so cool. We're doing it again this year.
546. 1:41:50So, you got to join us. Okay, beautiful. I'm out of here. I will see you tomorrow night. Same bat time, same bat channel.
547. 1:42:00And uh yeah, have a good night. Peace out.
