0:06 Yeah. Hold, please. Beautiful. 0:32 Oh no. 0:39 >> With a spoon covered in sauce. 2:40 All right, good people. I'm back. It's 2:41 okay.

I've come It's all right. 2:48 I've arrived. 2:53 I'm telling everyone, you're getting 2:55 your notion board configured. Listen, 2:57 here's the victory with notion. I did 3:00 not quit the app today 3:06 and it actually forced me. Okay, so a 3:09 couple of So, there's a lot happening. 3:11 Anyway, we we'll get back to that. Let 3:13 me sing with my dog. That's why you've 3:15 come here. Really? Have you not? 3:18 All 3:25 right. Ready? One, take one. Zoom in on 3:28 Kyle and action. 3:43 Oh 4:09 time I see it now. Get that look in 4:13 mine. 4:15 Every time I see your mouth, I hear that 4:19 smile. 4:22 In the early misty morning light, I 4:25 heard the engine turning in the old for 4:29 outside. 4:36 Will you believe in me 4:39 again today? 4:42 You will convince me 4:45 again today. 4:47 You're leaving this hotel looking for 4:51 someone else's golden ring. 4:56 Should have said 4:58 so long.

This is where my life is 5:39 led me. 5:42 Hey Danielle was shaking. Side hustle me 5:45 in the house. We got Vicki. We got 5:46 producer Brandon. Producer Brandon right 5:48 here. You know what he's doing? 5:50 Producing Vicki on YouTube. Better. 5:53 There's a notion tutorial in irregulars 5:56 for anyone who got confused last night. 5:58 So, listen, if you were not here last 6:00 night, so a couple of things going on. 6:02 Welcome if you're new. Um, it's just a 6:06 handful of people in here. This is 6:07 probably all people that know what the 6:08 hell's going on, 6:10 but we're shifting the focus of this 6:12 channel. 6:26 And what it looked like was this. 6:32 We uh we Liz Miller Gersfeld and myself 6:35 we we uh we took some work that some 6:38 personal work that she's doing 6:42 about 6:43 creating a personal practice around her 6:48 use of AI 6:51 and said wow what if we created a 6:55 framework that's that's based on the 6:57 ideals of the 6:59 of the AI salon and play first, create 7:03 excellence and generously lead the cycle 7:06 of AI readiness 7:08 and we build a practice framework around 7:10 that and teach people how to do a daily 7:13 practice. 7:15 Sounds awesome. Sounds awesome. And we 7:19 created this thing called the AI Salon 7:21 Mastermind Practice Lab. And 7:25 it's a weekly 7:27 meeting, focused meeting where we're 7:30 teaching people how to create their 7:32 daily practice using this framework we 7:34 created. 7:36 Everything's good so far. Everything's 7:38 awesome. 7:40 It was funny when 7:43 when I first heard about the idea of an 7:46 AI practice, 7:48 my immediate instinct. 7:53 I just hold everybody hold. I've got 7:55 schmutz on the back of my phone lens. 7:57 It's causing glowy things. Let me see. 8:00 Do I have Oh, I've got a a pink bow. 8:04 The famous pink bow. Hang on. Hang on, 8:08 people. Everybody, everybody calm down. 8:13 Good lord. There, that's better. See, 8:16 not so glowy. 8:18 Okay, 8:21 so when I first heard about this idea, 8:23 this this practice, 8:29 I thought, 8:32 I know I'm not wearing it right. 8:33 Whatever, ladies. 8:36 I know how to wear a headband. Okay. Um, 8:42 I thought I would love to have a a 8:44 practice. That sounds so cool. 8:48 And then I thought, wait a minute. I go 8:50 live on TikTok five nights a week. 8:54 Technically, not a daily practice, but a 8:56 daily weekday pra a week daily practice. 8:59 A week a weekday daily pra a week a five 9:02 day a week practice. 9:06 And then we started teaching the 9:10 practice, the framework. 9:14 And guess what I learned? I didn't have 9:16 a practice. I thought I had a practice. 9:19 I didn't. I had a habit. I had a habit 9:22 of showing up five nights a week, which 9:25 to give myself some credit, is pretty 9:27 [ __ ] remarkable. No, I I think it's 9:31 it is just just slightly less remarkable 9:34 than all of you who show up here on a 9:36 nightly basis to watch it. I think that 9:38 is equally if not more remarkable that 9:41 that happens. Um 9:45 but that's not a practice. 9:49 A habit is not a practice. Doing 9:51 something every day does not necessarily 10:00 accomplish anything, 10:03 right? We get up every day and we have 10:05 coffee. 10:11 It's part of our history. I know it is. 10:13 It's actually the fact that we all hang 10:16 out here together for, you know, years 10:18 now is [ __ ] remarkable. And you wait. 10:21 We're going to work on Sydney tonight, 10:23 by the way. So you you just [ __ ] wait 10:25 when that show [ __ ] opens in New York 10:27 City and we're all in the theater 10:29 together watching that show. 10:32 I I won't it I won't be able to be 10:34 there. It it I I'm going to be a train 10:36 wreck. Um anyway 10:41 um 10:46 a practice requires intentionality 10:50 and um 10:52 it's taken me we've been we've been 10:54 teaching the course now for 10:57 I think we're on our seventh or eighth 10:59 week so two months 11:02 and I'm just now starting to get my head 11:04 around what it means and and the the 11:06 kind precipitating force uh for me was 11:10 was Cindy Coon's talk during AI 11:12 Festivus. So if you haven't seen if you 11:15 were not there for AI Festivus, it just 11:17 happened this past weekend. 11:19 If you missed it, it's a shame, but this 11:21 is a ridiculously low price. For 27 11:24 bucks, you can get the deluxe replay 11:27 bundle that includes like Jelly Pod 11:29 podcasts about the sessions, notebook 11:32 LM, infographics, the recordings, 11:36 transcripts, the presentations, 11:38 everything for 24 hours of programming. 11:42 Champ, you got to be kidding me. You got 11:44 to be kidding me. I I I haven't even 11:47 start I haven't even gotten to the good 11:49 stuff yet. 11:52 I want a little cheese. 11:55 I want a little cheese. Daddy. Daddy. 11:58 Daddy, get out the cheese. Daddy, get 12:00 out the cheese. 12:02 All right, hang on. I got to go let the 12:04 dog out. 12:14 >> Daddy, can I have cheese? 12:18 >> Go. 12:20 Go. Go out. What are you doing? Oh my 12:24 god. 12:27 >> What do you want? 12:29 >> You want to sing more? You might need to 12:31 sing more. 12:34 Little son of a [ __ ] I opened the door 12:36 and he wouldn't go out. What do you 12:37 want? You want to sing more? 12:48 Champ, what are you doing? You singing? 13:02 Hey. Hey. Hey. There's no rapping. What 13:05 are you doing? We're singing or we're 13:07 not. 13:11 All right. Um, take three. Oh, please 13:16 listen. What do they say? Never work 13:17 with kids or dogs. 13:19 This is why. This is [ __ ] why. Oh my 13:24 god. He really did want to sing. Now 13:26 he's just laying down. Are you you What? 13:29 What was that about? 13:32 He like whined by the door. I walked 13:34 over and opened the door and he ran back 13:35 in the room. Dogs are weird, man. Dogs 13:39 are weird. 13:42 Play Trouble. My favorite. Okay. 13:47 A champion might sing to trouble. 13:58 Standing between 14:01 you and a hard place is insane. 14:07 Standing too near 14:10 you in a fire makes it clear. 14:16 You're trouble to me. 14:22 Rich trouble catch you say 14:28 leaning in close. 14:31 Smell of your perfume scares me most. 14:36 Leaving away 14:40 feels stronger every day. 14:46 You're trouble to me. 14:52 Real trouble. Can't you see? 15:01 Okay, back to the practice thing. So, 15:06 um, 15:11 a practice is something you do every day 15:13 with intention. And what it also looks 15:16 like is you have to sit with what I call 15:18 the ick. 15:20 And the ick is that thing that if you 15:23 want to do something, so play first, 15:27 create excellence. the the create 15:29 excellence part of the the cycle of AI 15:32 readiness. 15:37 You can't just live and play first land. 15:41 If you want to create excellence, you 15:44 have to go to some dark places. 15:48 If you want to create more than a 15:49 seven-second video out of one of the 15:52 video models or you want to create 15:54 something that has the impact of Kelly 15:57 Besh, which I just realized I've been 15:59 mispronouncing her name for [ __ ] 16:01 three years. 16:04 It's got an O in it to my defense, 16:09 but I was interviewing Kelly during 16:11 Festivist and she goes, "Hi, I'm Kelly 16:12 Bes." And I was like, "Ah, [ __ ] Really? 16:19 Mimi in the making. Sad hustle. Mimi. I 16:22 like Oh, Mimi in the making. I love it. 16:23 Being born. Exactly. Just like what 16:25 we're doing here. So, here's what's 16:27 going to here's what's going to happen. 16:29 Rather than this channel being about me 16:34 flasharning something 16:37 an hour before I teach it to you, which 16:40 is which is historically what it's been. 16:46 What the channel's now going to be is 16:48 I'm still going to be exploring new 16:49 tools. I'm still going to be playing 16:50 first, but what I'm going to be doing 16:52 also is 16:54 working on my projects. I've got so many 16:57 projects and they're projects that are 16:59 meaningful to me and they're meaningful 17:01 to other people. And 17:04 a lot of them, every project, if you 17:07 want it to be truly excellent, has 17:09 things in it that are distasteful. 17:12 Things where you have to learn something 17:13 new. Things where you have to do some 17:15 file organization. Things where you 17:17 maybe have to do some finances or some 17:19 contract work, right? Not just the sexy 17:22 stuff. Like one of the things that we're 17:24 going to work on tonight is I put 17:26 together this podcast. 17:30 It's like a Notebook LM podcast with the 17:32 Sydney songs edited into it and it was 17:35 really good. It was really like I was 17:37 really happy with it and everyone else 17:38 was really happy with it. And then 17:41 Andrew is like, "Well, except can I do 17:42 an edit where I do a much more 17:44 sophisticated edit with like, you know, 17:46 better, you know, transitions between 17:49 songs and overlaps with the vo voices 17:51 and can we get the voices just exactly 17:53 right?" And then we have a new version 17:56 of the of the poster that is not just 17:59 like this 14-year-old 18:02 pasty white girl, right? It's it's a 18:06 it's a racially, you know, diverse or or 18:09 neutral neutral entity and she doesn't 18:11 look like she's 12. 18:13 Um, and we've got a better logo. And so 18:16 I've got this whole video that I've 18:18 created with all the old logo in it and 18:21 the old the old Sydney in it. 18:25 And so this thing that I spent, I don't 18:28 know, two days working on, which I 18:30 thought was quite good, was good, but it 18:33 wasn't excellent, right? So to make it 18:36 excellent, I'm going to have to 18:38 completely rebuild it. And I don't even 18:40 have all the components yet, but I have 18:41 the new logo, the new posters, 18:44 and so I figured we'd work on that 18:45 tonight. But then there's also things 18:47 like here, let me show you something. I 18:48 want to show you something fun. Well, 18:50 it's not fun. This is one of those ick 18:52 places. 18:54 Um, 18:57 here is my 19:04 go into 19:13 I don't know if you can see that. Is 19:15 there a way I can make this bigger? Does 19:19 command plus work on these windows? It 19:21 does. Oh, it's just two two things. 19:24 Okay. 19:26 So, you know how I always joke about um 19:29 saving things? Well, you you may or may 19:31 not I always joke about my my file uh 19:35 saving system is to save things to the 19:38 desktop with a nondescript name. So, 19:41 you'll notice here I've got a bunch of 19:42 nested folders. So, I've got Kyle 19:44 Shannon monetizable products, AI 19:47 launchpad workshop, storyline selling, 19:49 AI festivist, content evolution collab, 19:52 AI readiness training program, 10-person 19:54 team workshop, AI Kyle's AI consulting. 19:57 So, I've got all these these nice 19:59 organized folders. Those I did today. 20:02 Those I did today. Now, I'm going to 20:04 show you something. I'm just going to 20:05 keep scrolling here. 20:07 All of these are loose individual files 20:12 that have zero organization to them. 20:18 Within these files, there's actually 20:20 some really good stuff in here. There's 20:22 stuff that could contribute to projects 20:23 being greater. 20:26 That's this is just my loose Google 20:29 Drive. 20:32 My personal my personal Google Drive is 20:34 just full of just random [ __ ] Okay. And 20:39 so so like when I talk about sitting 20:41 with the ick and like why would I spend 20:45 any time 20:48 on this channel showing file structure? 20:53 Um when I when I look at how organized 20:56 this is and like all these projects and 20:58 I can start to actually put stuff in 21:00 them. That's kind of fun. That's kind of 21:01 exciting. Then I think about the notion 21:04 um the notion instance that Vicky 21:07 Baptiste helped me figure out last night 21:12 and let's see 21:16 if I go to my control board. Here's 21:18 Kyle's control board. So this is now I'm 21:20 in notion. 21:22 So, Lord Digital Gods sent me a a really 21:25 funny thing that said, "I wonder if 21:27 Kyle's gonna is how long will Kyle how 21:30 long before Kyle quits notion?" I'm 21:33 like, I'm not quitting it. Damn it. I'm 21:34 gonna I'm gonna figure this thing out. 21:36 I'm going to figure this thing out. So, 21:38 within here, I've got business areas. 21:41 So, I've got AI Salon, Content 21:43 Evolution, Collab, Kyle, Shannon Media. 21:46 I want to I want to make sure that all 21:48 of these things all of these projects in 21:51 notion match 21:53 all of my folder structure in my hard 21:56 drive. 21:59 Now, why is this? Because 22:03 So, if I flip over here, wait, we're 22:06 we're taking side bets. Yeah. No, 22:08 listen. Please do. Please do hold me 22:10 [ __ ] accountable. Um, so here you're 22:13 looking at some some New Sydney um 22:17 videos here. Let me show you show you 22:19 this one. 22:23 Right. Looks great. That's our new 22:26 That's our new logo 22:28 because I'll show you because 22:32 the technology has gotten better since 22:34 the first time I made this this thing. 22:37 Um 22:40 the like the the uh the text on the on 22:43 the marquee up here and the text on the 22:44 ticket's actually correct. This is a 22:47 little [ __ ] up. It says like limit 22:49 limited dough 22:52 but but that looks pretty cool. And then 22:54 if I hit play 23:01 cool, right? Uh Mimi Kyle, this is 23:04 giving me cognitive dissonance. I know. 23:07 I know. 23:10 So, so, so part of the daily practice 23:18 is being intentional about the work you 23:20 do. So, what I would have historically 23:22 done and and the way, let me show you. 23:24 I'm going to launch iMovie. 23:28 It's giving me cognitive dissonance. I 23:30 know. Listen, I can be 23:35 I can be organized. 23:38 I choose not to be right. I don't I 23:41 don't like it. Like I like organizing 23:44 things. I don't like the ongoing 23:46 organizing of it. One of the reasons I'm 23:48 excited about notion if I do it right 23:53 is that I won't be in that situation 23:54 where I'm like, where was that thing? 23:57 Where was that thing? I know I did a 23:59 thing. Didn't I do a thing? Sometimes 24:01 I'll say, "Didn't I do a thing?" and 24:04 it'll take me like an hour to find it 24:06 and then I'll realize not only was it a 24:07 thing, but it was a thing that I spent 24:09 three or four days on and it's literally 24:11 just scattered across my digital 24:15 storage facility. Um Vicki says, "You 24:19 can now put videos in notion, too." Very 24:21 cool. That's great. You can now put 24:23 videos directly in Sydney. That's super 24:25 cool. 24:26 Um, okay. So, this is So, let me go back 24:29 to projects here. 24:36 This one. 24:43 So, I'll play a little of this here. 24:52 You can hear that, right? 24:57 See? 25:10 Okay. So, see this shot right here? 25:17 See all the white people? 25:20 So, one of the comments I got was, "Can 25:23 we make it a little less white?" It's 25:24 New York City. 25:29 Um, so that was a comment I got. But 25:32 when when I made that original video, I 25:35 went into Lumal Labs. I think I might 25:37 have even even done some of them here on 25:38 the live. I went into Lumalabs 25:42 and I just downloaded all the I made a 25:45 bunch of video clips and then I just 25:47 dragged them over to iMovie with the 25:49 song behind it and I stuck them in there 25:51 and I just did quick edits 25:53 and I just I didn't none of those raw 25:56 assets are saved anywhere. I have no 25:58 idea where they are. They're probably in 25:59 the iMovie thing somewhere. They're 26:00 probably somewhere else. That kind of 26:03 chaos 26:05 serves me in the moment, but it doesn't 26:07 serve me long term. 26:09 This is a project I want on [ __ ] 26:12 Broadway, 26:14 right? I don't want this like in in the 26:18 the local community theater in 26:20 Wheatidge, Colorado. I want this on 26:23 [ __ ] Broadway. 26:25 So, 26:28 if I'm halfassing 26:30 the things I produce for it, talk about 26:33 cognitive dissonance, there is this 26:35 cognitive dissonance between those two 26:37 things. So part of the intentionality of 26:39 a daily practice is if you really want 26:42 to step up your game, if you want to 26:43 make more money at AI, right? A lot of 26:46 people are like, "How do I make money 26:47 with Chachi?" Right? The famous Wait, 26:50 where's my button? I don't even know 26:51 where my button is. 26:53 I do. 26:57 >> Right. All those [ __ ] promise you 26:59 you 27:01 What's that require? 27:04 It requires you being excellent. 27:07 And what does excellence look like? I 27:10 don't know yet. 27:12 One, one part of excellence is showing 27:14 up. That I've got nailed. 27:17 The next part is show up with 27:19 intentionality 27:21 and understand what you're trying to 27:22 accomplish. And Cindy Coon's talk about 27:25 come up with three themes. Pick three 27:27 themes. Three. 27:30 And do everything within those themes. 27:35 The the batteries on that button have 27:37 outlived many AI startups. It's true. 27:42 >> I've never changed the batteries on 27:44 this. 27:47 We got some mileage out of that. Hang 27:48 on. Dog wants out again. You want to You 27:51 ready to go out for real this time? Come 27:53 on. 27:55 Go. 28:12 So, 28:29 huh? Huh? 28:36 I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm literally trying to 28:39 figure out 28:41 I was just sitting here thinking 28:44 if I'm going to recreate this video. 28:48 What would be really nice is if I had a 28:50 folder with all the images that were the 28:52 start images for this video, but I 28:54 don't. I think I actually just made them 28:56 all in 28:59 I don't know where I made them. I think 29:00 I made them in chat GPT. So like this is 29:05 something. Okay, so here's something 29:06 that I've thought about for a while and 29:08 this this affects me at at StoryVine at 29:11 my at my uh company. 29:13 Um, 29:17 a lot of times when I'll put together a 29:19 project, and I know I know you all know 29:21 this, 29:23 if you're doing anything in AI, you've 29:25 experienced this, where you're like, you 29:27 you dynamically do tool switching on the 29:29 fly. Okay, this this video tool isn't 29:32 working. Let me go try that one. Let me 29:34 try this image tool. Let me try this 29:35 audio tool. Let me try chat GPT. Now, 29:38 that didn't work. Let me go over to 29:39 Claude. And so what I end up with is I 29:42 end up with this Frankenstein kind of 29:45 chain of craft 29:48 where the final product was okay I wrote 29:51 the thing in claw I put it into nano 29:54 banana it turned into something and you 29:56 know I went put it into notebook LM and 29:58 then we're there. So the the final chain 30:00 of craft is clear but there were like 17 30:03 tools to get there. 30:07 notion would be a perfect place to say, 30:10 "Here's that chain of craft, right?" Um, 30:13 and just throw it in there. Just have a 30:14 thing that you throw in there and then 30:16 you'll be able to find it again in the 30:17 future. 30:19 That requires some discipline. That 30:21 requires setting it up. That requires 30:22 some practice. But like, that's a thing 30:25 that the next time I go to do a project 30:27 [ __ ] me up because I spend a ridiculous 30:30 amount of time trying to find all this 30:31 stuff. Okay. 30:35 Good lord. Good lord. Good lord. 30:40 All right. What's going on? What's going 30:41 on in the chat? Chatty chats over here. 30:44 You can put your videos in there. Vicki, 30:46 does not connect with Okay. I don't 30:48 know. Okay. 30:51 So, 30:54 so the first thing we need to do 31:11 Now, can I 31:15 I do it? Let's see. 31:26 Okay. So, there's that and there's that. 31:35 Okay. So, that's fine. 31:43 And then I jump to that scene 31:47 and we've got an old Sydney logo, right? 31:53 So, what I need to do is go probably 31:56 there. 31:59 Oh [ __ ] 32:11 Yeah. 32:18 So, like here's a good this is a good 32:19 example of I don't quite know how to do 32:21 this. 32:24 This is this is absolutely one of those 32:27 moments where where I could just go, 32:30 "Oh, [ __ ] it." and just just say, "This 32:32 is good enough. I'm not going to take 32:35 the time to do this," right? And that is 32:38 the thing we want to battle against. 32:41 And it's not even a battle. 32:45 The point of a daily practice is like 32:48 understand what you're trying to 32:49 accomplish. 32:52 Just cut the lines, right? If you're in 32:55 a bar, you just Someone's got to cut the 32:57 lines, right? We all want to be Tom Cruz 33:00 and cocktails spinning bottles around. 33:03 I have no idea what I'm doing and it's 33:05 great. Yeah. Yeah. Embrace that. Embrace 33:09 the jank. Embrace feeling clueless. 33:12 Embrace 33:14 that feeling of ickiness. 33:18 Because where you've got that feeling of 33:20 ickiness, where you've got that fear 33:22 that's like I don't want to deal with 33:23 it. 33:25 On the other side of that is there's 33:27 some [ __ ] magic, 33:29 you know? Tik Tok pin Vicki. Oh, YouTube 33:32 Vicki. No, not notion search is so good. 33:36 Good. Exactly. That's like my instinct 33:39 seeing just seeing what it is. If I I 33:41 don't even know what to call it. It's 33:43 like a a weird combination between a 33:45 notetaker and a scheduling tool and a 33:48 and a [ __ ] relational database. 33:51 It's it's notionally 33:56 like some combination of those. 33:59 Um 34:01 but yeah, like I don't want to I don't 34:03 want to like not know exactly what to do 34:05 in front of all you people. That's 34:08 [ __ ] gross. 34:10 Why? Oh, I probably have to click. 34:13 Yes. Okay, great. So, now what I'm going 34:16 to do is I'm gonna What happened? 34:20 Oh, I rolled over. Oh my god. Okay. 34:24 Can we Can we not Okay, we're good. 34:29 Okay, so I'm going to make a 34:32 a screenshot of this. 34:37 Can What just happened to my screen? Oh, 34:40 it's Why is it so dark for you? Oh, cuz 34:45 you're not seeing 34:47 You're not seeing what I'm seeing. I've 34:48 got a I've got like a little bright live 34:50 window that you're not seeing. Okay, 34:52 it's a floating window that's not 34:53 showing up, which is weird. Okay, 34:55 whatever. 34:57 Okay, so I just took a screenshot of 34:59 that thing. So, now 35:01 I'm going to go over to chat GPT because 35:04 I did do a little testing on this 35:05 earlier. 35:07 All right. So, I said this this was 35:11 um 35:13 there's the original. See, there's the 35:15 original with the old logo 35:17 and the dude the dude back here and the 35:20 old the old face. 35:22 So, I said there's that picture and then 35:24 here's the new poster with the new face 35:27 and the new logo. 35:31 And I said, you know, make the ticket 35:33 look like the ticket. 35:36 And then it ended up, I guess, there. 35:40 There we go. It's which this is still 35:42 not quite right now that I look at it. 35:46 Um, 35:50 should I be excellent? I should probably 35:52 be excellent, shouldn't I? 35:57 All right, let me go. Dang it. Uh um 36:06 I'm going to say 36:08 notice 36:10 in the 36:13 original poster I uploaded. 36:22 The standing man 36:25 is 36:27 white, 36:28 not gray. 36:38 Also notice 36:41 that on the ticket 36:46 there is no man at all. 36:51 Please 36:54 update 36:56 the ticket 37:00 design 37:03 and 37:05 marquee design 37:11 to reflect 37:16 this detail. 37:23 And then I and I think what I'm going to 37:24 do is I'm going to go add 37:32 the thing back in. And by the way, 37:35 because I organized 37:38 my um because I organized my folder, 37:43 sorry, Moo. No. Um, because I organized 37:47 my folder, I know exactly where the 37:49 latest posters are, right? Like, this is 37:51 the thing. Having a a horizontal poster, 37:56 a vertical poster, and a square poster 37:59 that are the latest graphics with the 38:01 latest logo in a single place. I know 38:03 this seems [ __ ] ridiculous to you, 38:06 right? That it's a big deal for me to 38:09 have the latest things in a folder I can 38:11 actually find. 38:16 One of the joys of having an ADHD brain 38:20 is that you can move fast and you can 38:22 keep track of a lot of [ __ ] 38:25 It's counterintuitive, right? 38:29 So, I have a a good enough brain to go, 38:32 "Oh, I know. I saved it. I know I saved 38:34 the latest one probably to my desktop, 38:36 but if I don't have it there, I probably 38:37 have it in Andrew's tweet 38:40 chat thingy he sent me. 38:44 But there's so much cognitive horsepower 38:47 that is spent just trying to sift 38:49 through the chaos of my life that that 38:53 doesn't make sense anymore, right? Okay. 38:56 So, there's our new logo there. There's 38:59 our new poster. So, notice in the 39:01 original poster I uploaded, the standing 39:03 comma, the standing man 39:06 is white, not gray. Um, 39:11 he is also to the right of the word 39:18 Sydney, 39:21 not above it. 39:26 Okay. I also noticed that on 39:30 your ticket design, 39:33 your ticket design, 39:37 there is no man at all. Okay. Boom. 39:40 Let's see if we can get this thing to 39:42 not suck. And and this 39:46 trying to get AI to like behave 39:49 is a nightmare. I was trying to do this 39:50 with Nano Banana earlier and it was it 39:52 was a disaster. Would Nano Banana not be 39:56 a little better for slight changes? It 39:58 might be, but it wasn't this afternoon. 40:00 It kept giving me it would it would 40:02 redesign the marquee and it just left 40:04 the the front ticket alone and I 40:06 couldn't I couldn't get it to change the 40:08 design of the ticket. But but the image 40:11 that I put in here as the base image was 40:13 an early iteration of a nano banana 40:16 image. So maybe I just need to go back 40:17 and forth between the two. 40:20 Okay. 40:22 Um, I use my recent shortcut like a 40:26 lifeline, but it's not working well 40:28 lately. Yeah, exactly. 40:31 Exactly, man. This is this is uh this is 40:34 the ick. This is the ick. 40:40 And I don't know, there's a part of me 40:42 that's like, do I even want to [ __ ] 40:44 deal with any of this? But well, that 40:47 sort of worked. 40:48 So, we could say um on the marquee 40:56 the white 40:59 the man is 41:02 above the Y in Sydney. 41:09 It should be to the right of it. But 41:14 notice we now have the man on the 41:16 ticket. So that's cool. 41:22 The other thing about this, what I'm 41:24 doing right now is Oh, Champy's back. 41:27 Little [ __ ] Um, 41:31 in this final video, this is going to be 41:34 seen for about a quarter of a second. 41:40 Does it matter that the little dude 41:42 isn't standing there on these? No. But 41:44 is that excellence? No. 41:48 Where do you draw the line? I don't 41:49 know. Like like this is this is the 41:51 whole thing about being part of a 41:53 practice. There's 41:55 there's learning. Can you get the tools 41:57 to do what you want them to do? But 41:58 there's also like what is the standard 42:01 that you're producing to 42:04 if I want to produce for Broadway 42:07 or even off Broadway for [ __ ] sake 42:09 anywhere in New York, you know? So that 42:14 didn't fix it at all. In fact, I think 42:16 it made it worse. Made the color worse. 42:19 So, here's what we're going to do. We're 42:20 going to take this non6 by9 image. 42:24 Copy this image. We're going to go to 42:25 nano banana. We're do a new chat. 42:30 We're going to paste this in. 42:32 I'm going to say in this image 42:37 the 42:46 Sydney logo on the marquee 42:51 has 42:54 the white 42:58 male figure above the Y. 43:06 It should be 43:09 to the right of the Y, 43:17 not above it. 43:21 Please fix. 43:25 And you know, it's also very possible 43:27 that 43:28 this kind of shorthand prompting that I 43:30 do on the AI learning lab live, 43:33 this might not be 43:36 appropriate for the level of work I want 43:37 to do. Like I might I might need to be 43:39 doing more structured prompts, which we 43:41 can go fix. Like that's not a problem to 43:42 solve, but it's got to be solved. 43:48 It's got to be solved, everybody. 43:57 I still remember the first time I took a 44:00 picture of my notes and chat GBT read. 44:02 Oh, that's something I wanted to do 44:03 tonight. Actually, that I'm glad you 44:05 said that. 44:07 We'll we'll we're going to do something 44:08 on that front, too. 44:11 So, okay. So, look what look what Nano 44:14 Banana did. This is the kind of [ __ ] 44:16 that So, now it's just Sid with the dude 44:19 and the Y and then it's DN. The DNE 44:22 show. Hey, did you go see DNE on 44:25 Broadway? No. 44:31 God damn it. 44:34 [ __ ] 44:42 Um, 44:52 you didn't 44:57 change anything. 45:00 Look at this 45:05 layout 45:06 in the 45:11 uploaded poster and make sure 45:18 the marquee 45:22 matches it 45:26 there. There's also what I'm about to do 45:29 is I'm about to bail and go do it in 45:31 Photoshop. 45:34 Nanobanana has rarely done that sort of 45:36 thing to me. You know, archetypal, I'm 45:38 wondering, do you use Nano Banana in uh 45:40 in AI Studio? I wonder if the Nano 45:43 Banana in AI Studio is different than 45:45 the one on Gemini because I was that was 45:47 on Gemini. 45:49 Um, 45:51 so let me upload my poster again. 45:55 I mean, this seems [ __ ] ridiculous 45:57 that you have to keep uploading the 45:58 poster 46:00 because it's got it in its [ __ ] 46:02 memory, right? It's got it somewhere. 46:04 It's somewhere on an OpenAI server. My 46:06 little [ __ ] picture is sitting. 46:10 Okay. 46:20 I'm almost exclusively you using it on 46:23 Gemini or through weevi. Okay. Yeah, 46:25 it's weird. I don't know. I don't know 46:26 what the deal is. 46:32 The other thing I've noticed about in 46:34 the in the grand total of two days, day 46:37 and a half since I've been doing this is 46:39 the time for me goes by really fast. And 46:42 I would imagine the time for you is like 46:44 this is probably like watching paint 46:45 dry. So we'll we'll try to find a 46:48 balance of that. But it it might also 46:50 just be that this is a it's a different 46:53 kind of compelling 46:56 to work on stuff. Um, 47:06 and by the way, this is one image of I 47:09 don't know, probably a doz Oh, it's so 47:12 close. 47:19 Okay. 47:21 Scooch 47:22 the man to the right 47:26 on the marquee 47:30 so 47:31 it isn't over overlapping 47:35 the Y 47:40 in the word 47:43 Sydney. 47:46 Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh. Oh, and you know 47:48 what else is going to probably [ __ ] 47:50 happen as I'm doing all these iterations 47:53 is at some point it's going to go, "Oh, 47:55 sorry. You're out of credits, Mr. 47:56 Shannon. Mr. Shannon, Mr. Shannon." 47:59 Yeah. Listen, um we noticed that an ex 48:03 excessive amount of uh token generation 48:07 under your account. You're only paying 48:09 us $20. 48:11 and we were kind of, you know, we kind 48:13 of were thinking maybe, you know, you 48:16 could not make so many. So, what we've 48:18 gone ahead and done is we've just turned 48:20 off your ability to continue doing your 48:22 work. I hope that works for you. We we 48:25 really value you as a customer, Mr. 48:28 Shannon. It's just that the excessive 48:30 use of tokens from our system is really 48:34 kind of making us a little cranky, if 48:36 you know what I mean. 48:51 All right. So, here's a question. 48:54 Do you Do you [ __ ] punt? 49:00 No, I'm not going to punt. Here's what 49:02 I'm going to do. I'm gonna open up 49:03 Photoshop. 49:05 Do I want to open up Photoshop? I don't 49:07 think I want to open it on that one. I 49:08 think I'm going to want to open it on 49:09 this one. 49:11 But is the color different? No. Fine. 49:14 So, we're going to copy this image 49:18 and open up Photoshop. 49:21 Oops. That's photos. 49:23 Photoshop. 49:27 Yes, it's Mr. Shannon. Mr. Shannon. Mr. 49:29 Shannon. Yes. Yes. Yes. No, I was There 49:32 were some questions in the crowd. Uh 49:35 really curious, deeply wondering pretel. 49:40 So by chance, what uh are your 49:43 qualifications? 49:44 Because 49:47 it appears uh 49:50 the credentials are thin. 50:06 Never punt on first down. Great point. 50:10 Never punt on first down. And we are 50:11 absolutely in first down here. By the 50:13 way, I can see it right now. This is not 50:16 a 16 by9 image. 50:19 Did you see that? Gro Gro 50:22 Gro can now output images and videos in 50:26 all of the major aspect ratios including 50:29 16 by9 which is what all of your TVs are 50:32 and what all of your Tik Toks are 50:35 9 by6 16 by9 50:39 chat GPT still cannot do 16 by9 outputs 50:44 absolutely [ __ ] staggering to me okay 50:48 let's see let's See, here's what we're 50:50 going to do, people. Here's what we're 50:53 going to do. All right. We're going to 50:55 zoom in. 51:10 I'm going to grab that. And then I'm 51:15 going to 51:16 minus select. Can you all see this what 51:20 I'm doing? Yes. I'm going to minus 51:22 select that. 51:25 Oops. What did I just do? What did you 51:29 do? What did you do? 51:33 What? 51:36 That's bizarre. 51:39 Oh, I see. 51:41 30 pixel feather will do it every time. 51:45 Yeah. Yeah. See? Yeah. You puga. Yeah. 51:49 And another thing, Johnson, get your 51:51 dick off my desk. All right. 51:59 Copy. Okay. So, now what we're going to 52:02 do is we're going to select 52:06 the dude and we're going to use the one 52:08 thing that Photoshop seems to be good at 52:13 is removing [ __ ] So, I'm going to say 52:15 remove, man. 52:18 with generative fill. 52:22 And I've got I copied the man. So I've 52:23 got the man on the clipboard. Oh no, 52:27 it didn't remove it. All right, fine. 52:30 Here. Oh, you know what we'll do? Oh my 52:34 god. I can't this this. It's unfucking 52:36 believable that I have to [ __ ] resort 52:39 to like 20 23 Photoshop [ __ ] skills. 52:44 Like really? 52:47 You're kidding me, right? 52:50 I got to copy and paste stupid [ __ ] for 52:52 your stupid 52:54 cuz you can't figure out how to make 52:56 your stupid [ __ ] Follow my stupid 52:59 instructions. Flatten image 53:03 marquee tool. 53:06 I don't know what I'm doing here. I'm 53:09 supposed to use skills. It's not what I 53:12 signed up for. This is not what I signed 53:14 up for. 53:15 Okay. 53:22 Does that got to go down? I think it 53:24 does. Right. 53:26 Ah, this is so exhausting. 53:35 Okay, there. It's mostly gone. Now I got 53:38 to get the rubber stamp [ __ ] tool. 53:41 This is not what I signed up for. This 53:43 is not what I signed up for. You want to 53:45 know why we can't have nice things? 53:50 Cuz daddy's having to [ __ ] Photoshop 53:52 stuff when we have magic robots that 53:54 just make stuff. Okay. That's why 53:57 daddy's not happy. 54:03 Oh, god damn it. 54:05 Um, 54:07 hang on. 54:12 Uh oh. What's going on? Is it still 54:13 Monday? 54:16 Well, this is what happens when you get 54:18 what? Just [ __ ] should work. [ __ ] should 54:20 just work. 54:23 This is not my fault. 54:26 Everybody needs a cranky Gen Xer in the 54:28 corner office. 54:31 That's what it's like. That's very 54:32 triggering. He's very angry. Why is he 54:34 so angry at Photoshop? 54:37 Oh, that looks like [ __ ] Looks like dog 54:39 [ __ ] Just looks like H. Okay, so here's 54:43 what I'm going to do now. I'm going to 54:44 use generative fill to smooth the 54:46 gradient. 54:48 Okay, generative fill. Smooth 54:52 gradient. 54:54 We're We're using six trillion tokens to 54:57 smooth my gradient because I don't have 54:59 rubber stamping skills 55:02 or patience. 55:04 Oh my god. Seriously. 55:07 Seriously 55:17 smooth 55:18 gradient 55:20 only. 55:28 And if you're if you're sitting there 55:31 judging and thinking, is anyone going to 55:34 see this? Is anyone going to notice 55:35 this? No. 55:42 Oh [ __ ] that was the wrong All right, 55:44 there we are. Okay, D. 55:47 Uh, let me get the rubber stamp tool. 55:49 I'm I'm just going to rubber stamp it 55:50 shittily and then we're just going to 55:52 move on with our life. 56:00 Oh, I [ __ ] hate this. Okay, there we 56:03 go. That's good enough. Now paste. 56:04 There's our dude. 56:09 Right. 56:10 Beautiful. 56:12 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. And I 56:15 think what we're even going to do, 56:17 let me just make it a little like And 56:20 then 56:26 there we go. And I think we've got to do 56:28 this a little opacity 56:31 opacity like so that it matches. 56:42 That's probably better, right? Do you 56:46 see what we did there? 56:48 Look how excellent we are. 56:51 Our quality of excellence here is just 56:54 crazy. And if you're like, "But the 56:56 man's a different size relative to the 56:58 Sydney." I know. I know. And the Sydney 57:01 logo is not actually correct. 57:03 Oh my god, it's exhausting. But this but 57:05 this doesn't matter. Okay. Um, 57:10 let me go layers. Let me go flatten 57:12 image. 57:16 And here's what I'm going to do. 57:21 Oh, the other thing I need to do is I 57:23 need to turn this into a 16 by9 image. 57:45 Okay. So, now we have a 16x9 image 57:48 that's got mostly our logo correct. And 57:51 we're going to go export as PNG. 57:56 And where are we going to save this? Not 57:58 to the desktop. 58:04 So, we're going to go to posters. We're 58:05 going to go podcast 2.0. 58:09 There's nano banana test. So, we're 58:11 going to go 58:13 new folder, 58:16 poster 58:20 2.1 58:23 images. Uh, let's see. Um, oh, let's 58:26 see. Poster 2.1 58:30 start images. 58:35 I think that'll make sense. Maybe I've 58:38 got to remember I called this poster 2.1 58:40 and then we'll just go we'll call this 58:41 ticket. 58:43 Okay, beautiful. Save. Great. Next. 58:49 Just like 12 more of those to go. 58:52 Um, 58:55 got to go back here. 58:57 Got to get this screenshot again. 59:01 That. And then we're going to go here. 59:04 Okay. Okay, people. Fantastic. 59:08 Fantastic. Here's what we're going to 59:10 do. All right. We're going to paste in 59:13 that image that we just screenshotted 59:15 out of the old video project. And we're 59:17 going to say replace. 59:20 That thing failed to upload. Of course 59:22 it did. Okay. Yes, that's the ticket. 59:26 Acting. 59:28 It was only acting indeed. Fantastic. I 59:32 sneaked out of watching a movie with the 59:33 wife to come here. I'm so sorry. 59:35 Generative Phil is a good Tik Tok name. 59:38 It actually is a really good really good 59:40 Tik Tok name. Somebody do that. Somebody 59:42 take Generative Phil. Kyle, how many 59:44 tabs do you have open? Listen, that's 59:46 not appropriate. That's not an 59:47 appropriate question. Cam Ken from 59:49 Cleveland. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. But 59:53 three of them are X. 12 13 14 15 16 17 59:58 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 I 1:00:03 don't know 30ish, which is low for me. 1:00:06 If I'm not in the 70s, I'm not I'm not 1:00:08 pinning the memory requirements of my my 1:00:11 uh computer. 1:00:13 Okay, let's see. Um, update 1:00:20 update 1:00:22 the the marquee 1:00:26 in this image with the new Oh, maybe I 1:00:32 should do this over in nano banana. Nano 1:00:34 banana. 1:00:36 Nano banana. 1:00:40 Let me go try it. Nano Banana 1:00:44 because I think I think Nano Banana 1:00:46 generally is better, but it it's been 1:00:48 really acting up for me today. I don't 1:00:50 like it at all. 1:00:52 Okay. Oh, wait. And I've got this. The 1:00:55 other thing that drives me crazy about 1:00:56 Nano Banana, you have to put in 1:01:01 the last image that you upload has to be 1:01:03 the aspect ratio that you want. 1:01:07 That's something that they need to fix 1:01:09 that stupid [ __ ] bug. 1:01:12 Okay, there's Sydney. 1:01:15 Okay, so let's see. Let's see here. 1:01:19 We're going to go paste. So that's the 1:01:21 new poster in the 1:01:26 um 1:01:28 photo, 1:01:31 replace the 1:01:34 poster 1:01:39 in the marquee 1:01:43 above. 1:01:46 Times Square 1:01:48 with the new poster 1:01:52 uploaded here. All right, let's see what 1:01:56 we get, people. 1:01:59 Let's see what we How many tabs do you 1:02:01 have open? 1:02:20 All right, that's not bad. It looks a 1:02:22 little Why does it look a little 1:02:32 Let's see. 1:02:33 It looks 1:02:35 like you 1:02:38 um compressed 1:02:41 it vertically 1:02:45 to fit. 1:02:48 Don't do that. Also, it should match the 1:02:54 color 1:02:55 grading of the 1:02:58 original photo. 1:03:07 Dr. J, do you use AR glasses at all? I'm 1:03:09 interested in trying them out. 1:03:13 Be back. 1:03:23 So, archetypal architect, this is what 1:03:26 um my experience has been with Nano 1:03:28 Banana. There's the image that I did and 1:03:31 I gave it comments like you squashed the 1:03:34 poster. I don't want it squashed. I want 1:03:35 it cut off. 1:03:37 Um, and it's too bright relative to the 1:03:40 rest of the image. And then what it pro 1:03:42 what it produces is the exact same 1:03:45 [ __ ] image. It doesn't change a 1:03:46 thing. Sometimes it'll add an extra 1:03:49 Gemini watermark, 1:03:52 but I don't I don't I don't I don't I 1:03:54 haven't been having good luck with with 1:03:56 Nano Banana. It's it's it's [ __ ] 1:03:59 maddening. 1:04:01 All right. So, let's try it here. We'll 1:04:03 try it here. We'll do it live. 1:04:11 Okay. Update the marquee in this image 1:04:13 with the new poster. Um, 1:04:17 do not um 1:04:23 how do I put this? Uh 1:04:27 notice that the poster is cut off in the 1:04:34 original. 1:04:36 This is okay. 1:04:40 Don't 1:04:42 change the aspect ratio 1:04:47 of the poster of 1:04:51 the poster to um 1:04:55 to uh 1:05:00 be complete 1:05:03 the image. I think that's probably bad 1:05:05 prompting. 1:05:10 Kyle, do you use AR glasses? I've used 1:05:12 meta glasses, but they are not what I 1:05:16 want. I have not. Here's the reason why 1:05:18 I got I got the when when Google Glass 1:05:21 first came out. I I was not a glass hole 1:05:25 because I didn't wear them in public. I 1:05:27 I spent I don't I think it must have 1:05:29 been Storybine money. I spent $1,500 on 1:05:32 those stupid [ __ ] glasses 1:05:35 and did what I did with the with the 1:05:38 with the Rabbit. I I I used the the R 1:05:41 rabbit R1 far longer than I used Google 1:05:44 Glass because I tried them on and I 1:05:45 realized the software sucked for them. 1:05:47 They weren't good and they're just they 1:05:49 just weren't ready for prime time. So, I 1:05:50 just didn't use them. I that's where 1:05:52 I've been with with AR for a while. um I 1:05:56 don't have a a a strong uh I don't have 1:05:59 a strong need for it in my life. Right. 1:06:01 And in your case, I think you've got 1:06:03 some issues and and you have a need for 1:06:05 it. That's 1:06:08 like I I just don't I don't when I'm 1:06:12 going to get meta glasses is when 1:06:17 they're just [ __ ] good. like and and 1:06:19 apparently the metal ones are actually 1:06:21 pretty good right now, but they're not, 1:06:23 you know, they're not great. Why did it 1:06:25 make the dude 1:06:28 gray again and put him above the thing? 1:06:32 Um, 1:06:37 you changed 1:06:39 Oh, you know why? because we're in a 1:06:40 because we're in a [ __ ] other pro 1:06:43 prompt thing that because it did it once 1:06:46 in here and so it's copying it again. I 1:06:53 I am not happy. 1:06:57 Unbelievable. Add photos and files. 1:07:02 These things 1:07:06 this makes notion look easy. Yeah. Well, 1:07:09 this is like this is the ick. This is 1:07:11 the ick, right? Every every fiber of my 1:07:16 being wants to throw my computer out the 1:07:18 window right now. Like, I don't want to 1:07:20 do this. And this is very often what 1:07:23 happens to me is I will get excited 1:07:26 about and listen, this has happened my 1:07:28 whole life. I'd get excited about 1:07:30 something and and in in the olden timey 1:07:32 days, I'd get excited about something 1:07:34 and then I'd realize, oh, if you want to 1:07:35 do that, you have to go learn computer 1:07:37 programming. And I'd have to go to like 1:07:39 the Barnes & Noble and buy a book 1:07:43 before YouTube came out. 1:07:46 So, it's much easier now. If you want to 1:07:48 do something, you can just have AI do 1:07:49 it. But then, if you want to do it good, 1:07:53 good lord. Good lord. Okay. Um, please 1:08:00 replace the poster the the the 1:08:07 uh marquee 1:08:10 image with the new poster 1:08:15 uploaded here. Please replace the 1:08:19 marquee image in the photo 1:08:24 with the new poster uploaded here. 1:08:28 Um, 1:08:30 match the color grading 1:08:34 and tone. Tone is the same thing as 1:08:36 color grading. The color grading and 1:08:39 texture 1:08:41 of the original 1:08:44 photo. 1:08:46 Okay. How do you think I got in this 1:08:49 pickle suit, man? 1:08:52 Oh my god, I remember Barnes & Noble 1:08:55 days. 1:08:58 Listen to me. Two things. One, start a 1:09:01 new chat with Nano and keep revising 1:09:03 your first prompt. Ah, 1:09:06 if you draw on the image with Photoshop 1:09:09 pointing at [ __ ] Oh, 1:09:12 future of food coming in hot. Okay, 1:09:15 here's the difference. This is really 1:09:18 good. Chef Kelly, I think that's Is that 1:09:21 Chef Kelly? I think that's Chef Kelly. 1:09:25 Is that Chef Kelly? Yes. Okay. Um, 1:09:31 in the olden timey 1:09:33 AI learning lab, 1:09:36 I would be saying, "Here's how you learn 1:09:38 things." And now I'm just being 1:09:42 every man trying to figure this [ __ ] 1:09:44 out. 1:09:47 And you guys have the skills. I like 1:09:49 this. I like this a lot. 1:09:53 Why does it insist on putting 1:10:03 Unbelievable 1:10:05 unbelievable? 1:10:08 Here's what we're going to do. 1:10:11 Here's what we're gonna do. Oh, this is 1:10:13 [ __ ] exhausting. Okay, copy image. 1:10:18 We're going to Photoshop. 1:10:20 Go to new. 1:10:24 Paste. 1:10:26 You go open. 1:10:29 Open from your computer. 1:10:47 Select all. Copy. 1:10:55 Paste. 1:10:59 Why did it not paste? 1:11:02 Select all. Copy. 1:11:04 Go over here. 1:11:08 Paste. There we go. 1:11:13 Transform. Scale. 1:11:17 You're like, couldn't you use AI for 1:11:18 this? That's what I said. 1:11:40 Oh, wait. Did he make is that the 1:11:43 vertical poster? The dudes on top. I 1:11:45 think that might be right. Oh, well then 1:11:48 in that case we can go back. I think 1:11:50 then chatbt got it right. Hang on. I 1:11:53 might be being an [ __ ] to 1:11:58 um 1:12:05 Nah, it still did it wrong. 1:12:08 But yeah, this is the Okay, this is 1:12:11 okay. This is good. This is good. 1:12:15 So, what we're going to do, let's see. 1:12:23 We're going to go like that. We're going 1:12:24 to go like that. 1:12:27 We're going to hold down the shift key 1:12:28 and compress it a little bit. 1:12:32 And then we're going to go transform 1:12:36 free transform. 1:12:39 No. Then we're going to go transform 1:12:44 distort. I think that's right. 1:12:48 We go. All right. Yeah, 1:12:52 here we go. 1:13:15 Okay, 1:13:17 I think that's good. Okay. Now, 1:13:21 now we got to color grade this puppy. 1:13:24 So, we'll do 1:13:26 pull out the saturation. I like the 1:13:29 saturation. We will 1:13:32 change the hue a little bit. There we 1:13:35 go. 1:13:36 And we'll go lightness. And then we'll 1:13:39 And we'll go levels. 1:13:42 Yes. 1:13:46 We'll go 1:13:58 See, that just looks not the same. 1:14:02 And then we're going to go filter noise. 1:14:07 Add noise. 1:14:10 We'll go. Fine. That's good. That's 1:14:13 better. 1:14:15 And then we will do one more level. 1:14:18 Oh, we could do curves. Let me do 1:14:20 curves. 1:14:22 Image adjustment. Curves. 1:14:25 Oops. 1:14:27 Image adjustment. Curves. 1:14:31 Curves. There's the curves. There we 1:14:33 are. Yeah. Hey, listen, Kyle. Yeah. 1:14:36 Fantastic what you're doing there. It's 1:14:38 really good. Yeah. If you could just go 1:14:41 on ahead. Hey, could you try it again? 1:14:44 Maybe this time is if you had talent. 1:14:47 That would be great. Be fantastic. 1:15:07 All right, I think that's good enough. 1:15:08 We can go ahead and flatten that image. 1:15:10 Let's flatten that on up. We're going to 1:15:13 flatten it on up. We all do that. Oh, 1:15:16 that's fantastic. 1:15:18 I think Kyle's done lost his mind. Okay, 1:15:21 this is uh Times 1:15:24 Square. 1:15:27 Uh what's that? Uh TKTS. TKTS 1:15:32 steps. 1:15:38 Look at that. We did it. We did it. Yay. 1:15:41 Ship it. This is better than SNL. 1:15:48 Charles Montgomery Barnes died in 1927. 1:15:52 Clifford Noble died in 1932. That's 1:15:54 hilarious. Doesn't always work. 1:15:58 Um, 1:16:00 but it keeps your pen marks on it. Oh, 1:16:02 that's funny. Okay. So, that's that. So, 1:16:05 that's good now, right? I think that's 1:16:07 good. 1:16:09 Yeah, this is good. All right. Now, back 1:16:11 to this 1:16:13 and we're going to go we're going to get 1:16:15 to our next image. So, there 1:16:27 maybe not. 1:16:29 Maybe it's this image. Yeah. 1:16:33 Okay. 1:16:39 All right. 1:16:40 There's that. 1:16:44 Let's go to Where are we going to try? 1:16:46 Where are we going to try, people? 1:16:49 Oh, that's wild how how darker that 1:16:51 image is. Oh, no, it's not. 1:17:01 Huh. Well, whatever. I don't think it'll 1:17:04 matter in the end. Okay. Um, 1:17:08 let's try Gemini. 1:17:10 We're going to go for it, Gemini. We're 1:17:12 going to give you a shot. 1:17:14 We're going to go create image. 1:17:17 We're going to go 1:17:19 upload files. 1:17:22 Sydney, 1:17:23 the dude is on top of the Y. Okay. So, 1:17:25 that was not that was not their [ __ ] 1:17:28 That was my [ __ ] for not using my 1:17:30 eyes. I'm going to say replace the 1:17:35 Times Square 1:17:38 marquee 1:17:40 with this new uploaded 1:17:44 poster. 1:17:46 match the color of the 1:17:52 photo when 1:17:55 let's see match the tone 1:17:59 of the photograph 1:18:05 when inserting 1:18:08 the new poster 1:18:11 image. 1:18:24 [ __ ] That's really good. Yeah, that's 1:18:27 really good. Hey. Hey, Kyle. Yeah. 1:18:30 Listen. Listen. What you're What you're 1:18:34 doing here is really interesting.

Uh 1:19:44 well we we watch a it's um he's a man. 1:19:48 Um 1:19:50 what we we watch him um 1:19:54 try to use software. 1:19:57 What else does he do?

It's we there's it's there's 1:20:18 a hope that with there's a deep hope in 1:20:20 the community. Um something will be 1:20:22 taught at some time at the AI learning 1:20:25 lab. And no, we're excited about it. We 1:20:26 really are. We're almost 3 years in. 1:20:29 We're going to get there. We're going to 1:20:30 There's going to be 1:20:33 I don't know what I'm doing with my 1:20:34 life. 1:20:39 Are lemon heads your favorite candy? 1:20:41 Good question.

Wife is calling 1:21:49 upstairs. Are you coming back to the 1:21:51 movie? Uh, no. I'm watching. Yeah. 1:21:53 Learning lab. What do you watch up 1:21:54 there? 1:21:56 We've We've got on Die Hard. Yeah. This 1:21:59 is more exciting. What What is it? 1:22:02 It's a guy just kind of 1:22:06 He's trying it. We're really pulling for 1:22:09 him. 1:22:13 Unlike the mastermind. 1:22:16 And like this, the mastermind has value. 1:22:19 Exactly. 1:22:22 It's You know what the AI learning lab 1:22:24 is? It's a real underdog story. Yeah. 1:22:27 It's We We're really hoping he can pull 1:22:30 something off here at some point. 1:22:32 There's There's got to be some 1:22:34 qualification in there somewhere. So, 1:22:37 yeah. Yeah. No, I'll be down, honey. I 1:22:39 will. Just another I don't know, two 1:22:41 hours, maybe.

Lori 1:23:03 Ryan, oh man, that's awesome. Okay, 1:23:06 let's go over to chat GPT and see if it 1:23:08 can [ __ ] it up for us. This is so 1:23:11 maddening. 1:23:13 H. All right. 1:23:15 poster. Go get the poster. Boom. Paste 1:23:18 in the image. Please. 1:23:23 Uh, please. Why am I saying please? 1:23:26 You're being a jerk. I'm not going to 1:23:27 ask.

Um, 1:23:44 replace 1:23:46 the marquee 1:23:50 image in the photo 1:23:53 with this uploaded 1:23:56 poster. 1:24:04 Mine is called Sage. Very nice. All 1:24:06 right, everyone in in in both places. 1:24:09 Um, type in the name of what you call 1:24:12 your AI girlfriend or boyfriend. 1:24:15 Sage. Mine's Quinn. 1:24:19 Fun fact. Fun fact. Chat is French for 1:24:22 cat. 1:24:26 And isn't it a no no to be polite? It 1:24:28 might be. Gemini. What about Gemini? 1:24:33 Oh. Oh. Gemini. Jiminy. 1:24:36 Geminy. Jiminy. 1:24:44 Xen 1:24:46 Mochhat. I like Mochhat. Oh, that's what 1:24:48 you call her. Gemini. Oh, that's funny. 1:24:51 That's cute. 1:24:52 I had a lot of caffeine tonight. 1:24:56 See, her choice. Oh, I like it. Co-host. 1:25:00 Now, let's see. I call mine chat GPT. 1:25:05 Hey, did it actually [ __ ] do it? 1:25:10 I think it actually [ __ ] did it. 1:25:13 But look what it did. 1:25:16 It God damn. It's because it's it's the 1:25:20 wrong aspect ratio. But that's okay. 1:25:22 That we can go fix. 1:25:26 So, we're going to go into Photoshop. 1:25:28 We're going to do new image. 1:25:32 We're going to create this. 1:25:34 And then we're going to paste it. And 1:25:36 then we're going to go up here. We're 1:25:37 going to go image size. 1:25:41 I think I'm just going to squish this 1:25:42 [ __ ] 1:25:45 1920 x 1080, right? 19 1:25:48 1920 1:25:50 by 1080. Let me lose this. 1:25:59 Yeah, that's good. 1:26:12 All right. I think that's fine. I think 1:26:14 it's a little bit 1:26:18 I think it's a little um 1:26:22 bright for the background image, but 1:26:23 that's okay because it's about our 1:26:26 [ __ ] show. So, let me export this. 1:26:29 Export. quick export as PNG. And then 1:26:32 you know what I'm going to do for you 1:26:34 all so it's not completely insufferable. 1:26:37 Instead of me just doing these images 1:26:39 for the rest of the time, I'm going to 1:26:41 go TKTS steps. 1:26:44 So I'm going to just do Time Square 1:26:49 um closer. 1:26:52 Let's go make some videos out of these 1:26:54 things. Okay. 1:26:56 So now we're going to go to flow. Here's 1:27:00 Flow 1:27:02 and we're in frames to video. Oh, so so 1:27:06 this is flow.google 1:27:08 which is Google's VO3. So I'm using that 1:27:11 right now because 1:27:14 I don't know it. I think it works. 1:27:18 It's V3.1. I'm using V3.1 fast. I'm not 1:27:22 using their high-end one. 1:27:26 Okay. Um, so we're going to go plus. 1:27:30 We're going to go upload. And now 1:27:32 because we saved them to a place that we 1:27:34 know where they are. 1:27:37 Let's see. Is it in here? Yeah. Poster 1:27:41 2.1 start images. 1:27:45 So there's our there's our our ticket. 1:27:52 Beautiful. 1:28:02 Okay, let's see. Um, 1:28:07 walk. 1:28:10 Let's see. POV 1:28:13 shot 1:28:15 walking into the theater 1:28:21 as the 1:28:23 crowd 1:28:25 mills about. 1:28:28 Um, 1:28:30 the crowd 1:28:36 should 1:28:39 be ethnically, 1:28:43 diverse, 1:28:46 like a good New York City mix 1:28:51 with a tourist or two. 1:28:57 a tourist or two 1:29:00 or two in there. 1:29:04 All right. 1:29:07 As the regular crowd shuffles in, that's 1:29:09 pretty good. I'll try that next if it 1:29:11 [ __ ] this up. 1:29:13 Did mine too. Silver Fox, I love this. 1:29:18 I absolutely can't believe how far image 1:29:20 generation has come. Well, so Lori, 1:29:23 what's what's amazing about that? So the 1:29:25 video 1:29:27 Well, that's rendering like the video 1:29:31 here 1:29:34 like that. That one says an artificial 1:29:37 love story. So, it got that right. And 1:29:38 then it says by 1:29:41 it sort of got our names right. 1:29:45 Um, 1:29:48 but let's see this one. 1:29:54 That one's okay. 1:29:57 Play bills, right? That one's pretty 1:30:00 good. 1:30:02 That one's pretty good. Oh, this this 1:30:03 one it's got letters at the top. 1:30:15 Yeah, this one this one's really bad. 1:30:17 Like the the letters at the top here are 1:30:19 really bad. But we got three stars in 1:30:22 some review. 1:30:27 That's one we're going to have to fix 1:30:28 the uh the poster there. Right. 1:30:34 Okay. Beautiful. Beautiful franchise. 1:30:39 All right. Let's see if we have a video. 1:30:40 I bet we do. We do. All right. You heard 1:30:44 it here first, people. You probably 1:30:46 won't be able to hear this because we're 1:30:47 in Chrome, but I'll tell you if it's any 1:30:50 good. 1:30:59 AI Sydney. 1:31:04 All right. The crowd is not diverse. 1:31:08 They're all pasty pasty white, but that 1:31:10 was not bad. Let's see. POV shot walking 1:31:13 the theater as the as the regular 1:31:19 crowd. The crowd 1:31:22 should be a mix 1:31:25 of 1:31:27 um white, Hispanic, 1:31:32 African, 1:31:34 American, 1:31:36 Asian, and 1:31:43 mixed races. I don't know. I don't know 1:31:46 how to [ __ ] do this. 1:31:49 I don't know how to tell the biased 1:31:52 model to be to suck less. It's New York 1:31:56 [ __ ] city. Um, I normally don't name 1:32:00 mine, but last night I named the notion 1:32:02 guy Tippy. 1:32:05 The dude 1:32:09 used the General Mills setting 1:32:14 as the irregular crowd shuffles in. I 1:32:16 like that. That's good. 1:32:20 We can hear it. Wow. 1:32:28 And we're going to try one other thing 1:32:29 tonight. I'm going to I'll I'll do I'll 1:32:32 make a video or two here. Actually, you 1:32:33 know what? Let's Let's make another 1:32:34 video right now. 1:32:37 Let's go grab time square this one and 1:32:41 just say um 1:32:44 we're going to go um time lapse 1:32:49 of 1:32:51 time square. 1:32:58 We'll do static camera. 1:33:03 static camera 1:33:06 time lapse. 1:33:08 Um, as the crowd 1:33:14 rushes 1:33:19 by and the we'll just we'll just leave 1:33:22 it at that. Okay, so that's that one. 1:33:24 All right. So, let's now 1:33:28 look at our 1:33:31 This really is amazing how good how good 1:33:34 this is. 1:33:46 >> Okay, that's just weird way. 1:33:59 That's annoying. Um 1:34:27 Try another one. 1:34:29 Did we get Oh, yeah. Here we go. 1:34:54 Um, so let's take this one. We'll go 1:34:56 we'll go 1:34:58 slowly. 1:35:00 Uh, let's see. Camera 1:35:05 slowly pans 1:35:12 as time lapse 1:35:16 of the crowd 1:35:22 of the 1:35:25 ethnically 1:35:27 diverse crowd 1:35:29 rushes by. All right, let's see how that 1:35:32 does. 1:35:33 And then let's go. Where's our Is this 1:35:36 our ticket? Yeah, here's our ticket. See 1:35:39 if this got any better. 1:35:44 Broadway theater. That's good. Nice. 1:35:48 Yes. Yay. We got one. Let's Let's see if 1:35:53 anything else is missing. 1:35:58 I kind of like I mean this is weird. It 1:36:02 a Broadway theater would never say 1:36:03 Broadway theater, but because this is an 1:36:06 aspirational piece. Um, 1:36:09 you know, we aren't on a Broadway yet. 1:36:11 We're just showing them what it would 1:36:12 look like if we were. It'd be [ __ ] 1:36:14 awesome. You see, it's a Broadway 1:36:16 theater. In case in case it wasn't clear 1:36:19 to you where we were hoping this play 1:36:22 was going to be, you want to know where 1:36:23 it is? A Broadway theater right there. 1:36:27 It's right there. That's Broadway. We're 1:36:28 on Broadway. The Broadway. Which theater 1:36:31 is it? It's the Broadway theater. 1:36:40 Still ship it. Yeah, exactly. Very meta. 1:36:43 It is. It's very meta. Um, this one. 1:36:48 Hey, look. Okay. Asian couple, Hispanic 1:36:52 man, African-American woman, some white 1:36:54 folks. It's good on the white folks. It 1:36:56 does them really well. Um, 1:37:02 couple of Asian people. Great. Lovely. 1:37:06 Some white folks in the distance. We 1:37:08 don't want to go too far without a white 1:37:09 guy. Okay, beautiful. Um, download. 1:37:15 >> Hey, Kyle. 1:37:16 >> Yes. Just want to let you know it's not 1:37:18 actually that meta because there is a 1:37:20 specific uh historic venue in New York 1:37:22 City officially named the Broadway 1:37:24 Theater at 1861 Broadway. One of the few 1:37:27 large houses actually on the street 1:37:30 itself. 1:37:31 >> Wow. Okay. I I I did not know that. And 1:37:35 I'm a I'm a theater nerd. 1:37:38 I use Chatb to help me figure out how to 1:37:40 turn an old iPad into a great 1:37:41 accessibility magnifier. That is super 1:37:43 cool. I can tell I missed a lot a bunch 1:37:46 of shenanigans. 1:37:48 I don't know about that. 1:37:53 I think Joy Party's laughing at my white 1:37:56 guys overindexing for white guys 1:37:57 comment. I'm assuming that's what that 1:37:59 was what that laugh was about. It was in 1:38:02 proximity of it does good with white 1:38:05 people. Good lord. All right. 1:38:10 Okay. Fantastic. Fantastic. Oh, and then 1:38:13 let's see. Did it get this thing better? 1:38:14 I think I think Let's hope so. 1:38:18 Maybe we get two actual shots here in a 1:38:20 row that don't suck. 1:38:22 Create excellence, right? We're talking 1:38:24 about creating excellence. Let's up our 1:38:26 game. 1:38:32 Is that the old one? I think that must 1:38:33 be the old one. Yeah, it is. Okay. 1:38:54 I think that's just shitty. 1:38:57 Let's see. Uh, we'll say camera 1:39:02 cranes up 1:39:05 as 1:39:08 time 1:39:10 lapse 1:39:12 of crowd 1:39:16 bustling. That's not English, 1:39:22 but that's okay. 1:39:25 Okay. So, now look what we're going to 1:39:27 do. We're going to go over to the Finder 1:39:29 and we've got all of our folders here. 1:39:32 And so I'm going to go to downloads. 1:39:38 Where's downloads? Oh, there it is. I'm 1:39:41 going to rename this file. 1:39:43 >> I heard the music is incredible. 1:39:46 This is my first time at the Broadway 1:39:47 Theater. 1:39:49 >> Let's find 1:39:50 >> What's cool is this is going to be the 1:39:51 final shot. 1:39:53 >> I heard the music is incredible. 1:39:56 This is my first time at the Broadway 1:39:58 Theater. 1:39:59 >> At the Broadway Theater. 1:40:10 >> Yeah. No, I think we'll So, I'll trash 1:40:12 that one. 1:40:15 We're going to call this one um 1:40:21 ticket 1:40:24 entrance 1:40:29 MP4 and then we're going to go to 1:40:32 there's Sydney 1:40:37 video assets. So, let's go in there 1:40:42 and then let's see what these are. I 1:40:43 think these are all old. So, we'll put 1:40:45 these all. 1:40:46 >> It's fascinating because I 1:40:47 >> Oh, that's that's those podcast. Okay. 1:40:53 There's the whole Broadway opening. 1:40:56 This is the old Broadway opening. Okay. 1:40:58 So, we're going to create a new folder. 1:41:02 We're going to go um V 1:41:09 2.0 1:41:11 podcast. 1:41:13 So, we're going to go grab one, two, 1:41:16 three, four, five, six, 1:41:19 7, 8, 9. 1:41:25 And then we're going to go new folder 1:41:29 V 2.0. No. 1:41:39 Opening video 1:41:42 and then we're going to put that in 1:41:44 there. So now that's old [ __ ] in there. 1:41:49 And then I think what we'll do, we'll 1:41:51 drag this in here. We're going to 1:41:52 confirm. We don't want to ask again. 1:41:54 I'll check that box every time. 1:41:58 And then I think what I'll do is I'll go 1:42:00 new folder 1:42:02 V.2.1 1:42:06 um 1:42:09 Broadway 1:42:12 um B-roll. 1:42:16 Okay, that's good. And then we'll throw 1:42:18 that in there. Okay, 1:42:20 then we'll open that up. And so now we 1:42:22 can just drop stuff into here and we'll 1:42:24 be able to find it again. Right. 1:42:27 It's really good, Kyle. That's just 1:42:30 fantastic. We're We're really pulling 1:42:32 Oh, thanks so much, Digital Gods. Lord 1:42:35 Digital Gods. If you haven't met Lord 1:42:36 Digital Gods, you can meet him next 1:42:38 Tuesday. We're going to have what we 1:42:39 call the AI salon presents. And what 1:42:41 we're going to be presenting is Lord 1:42:44 Digital Gods and some of his friends 1:42:46 from AI Festivus. They're going to come 1:42:48 and they're going to talk about what 1:42:49 they talked about during AI Festivus. 1:42:52 And then they're going to talk about I 1:42:54 don't know like I don't know their like 1:42:56 life philosophy or something like that. 1:42:59 And then they're going to talk about 1:43:01 they're many of them are psychics. So 1:43:03 they're going to talk about their 1:43:04 predictions for 2026. 1:43:07 That's going to be fantastic. 1:43:10 And then I think Lord Digital Gods is 1:43:12 going to give us a C++ tutorial. It 1:43:14 shouldn't be more than three or four 1:43:15 hours. And it he well he's going to 1:43:18 start with some forran basics uh because 1:43:21 that was it's really important as you're 1:43:23 vibe coding to understand the history of 1:43:25 computer programming and so like we're 1:43:28 not going back all the way to assembly 1:43:29 that would be stupid you know but like 1:43:31 we like you want to know what what the 1:43:33 NASA scientists programmed in you know 1:43:36 to get to get us to the we didn't really 1:43:38 go to the moon but that's not here or 1:43:40 neither here or there anyway it's going 1:43:43 to be fantastic stick 1:43:56 cream. 1:43:59 Perfect. 1:44:05 Now, this actually has nothing to do 1:44:08 with the reality of Time Square. So, 1:44:10 like right about 1:44:12 there, 1:44:14 I would stop it because a that's too 1:44:17 many people and b that doesn't exist. 1:44:26 You know what? Let's try this again. 1:44:27 It's It's too washed out and it's like 1:44:29 we don't want to We don't want to uh Oh, 1:44:32 what happened? Let's see. Go forward. 1:44:39 Uh-uh. I'm a little teapot, short and 1:44:42 stout. Here is my Where? Why? Where? 1:44:45 Where are my videos? Why did my videos 1:44:47 disappear? 1:44:53 Imagination. Yeah. Okay. Here's this. We 1:44:58 lost all of our videos. Why? 1:45:05 Hello. 1:45:08 They got to be in there. Yeah. Okay, 1:45:09 they're in there. Okay. 1:45:13 Fantastic. So, let's reload this this 1:45:15 this bad boy. This bad Larry. Camera 1:45:19 cranes. 1:45:22 Camera cranes up 1:45:31 and 1:45:33 moves 1:45:36 forward to the right 1:45:40 as time lapse of crowd 1:45:43 bustling. Fine. 1:45:48 Oh, we're at time. 1:45:50 Dang it. All 1:45:51 right, here's what I'm going to do 1:45:52 tomorrow. So, I've got my Wait, where am 1:45:56 I? This thing. 1:45:59 The show The show says ends when you say 1:46:02 it ends. Yeah, I know. I'm just trying 1:46:03 to be respectful of people's time. We 1:46:06 made some good progress tonight. Um, 1:46:10 we learned a few things that Nano Banana 1:46:12 is still madly frustrating. Um, 1:46:16 we learned that Chat GPT is decent, but 1:46:20 like like nothing's great. Nothing's 1:46:22 great. Nothing's great. 2026, I think 1:46:25 we're going to see stuff that's great, 1:46:27 but right now nothing's great. Nothing's 1:46:29 great. 1:46:31 It the fact that it it 1:46:36 the fact that I have to go to Photoshop 1:46:38 to fix little detailed [ __ ] 1:46:42 the fact that I can't just get better 1:46:44 results. Now, one of the things that I'm 1:46:47 not experimenting with, and maybe this 1:46:49 is something we play with. I'm not 1:46:51 experimenting with highly structured 1:46:53 prompts, 1:46:54 right? I could probably take this still. 1:46:56 In fact, let's try this. 1:46:59 Brandon's like, "Oh god, here we go. 1:47:01 We're never going to get out of here." 1:47:05 Okay, I'm gonna paste that in there. I'm 1:47:06 going to say um I want you to write me 1:47:12 a structured 1:47:14 prompt 1:47:16 that a video 1:47:21 generating 1:47:24 um AI tool can use to turn 1:47:30 this still image into a 1:47:36 um 1:47:38 crane. 1:47:41 What did I say? A tracking into a a 1:47:44 vertical 1:47:45 tracking shot of a time lapse 1:47:52 in New York City. The crowd 1:47:57 um 1:48:01 should have diversity. 1:48:05 We should see yellow cabs while they 1:48:08 still exist. 1:48:10 We should see yellow cabs. Um, 1:48:16 the movement 1:48:19 of the camera 1:48:22 should first go up and then 1:48:27 track right as it 1:48:33 zooms. 1:48:35 uh as it as it pushes forward. 1:48:41 um use um 1:48:46 cinematic 1:48:47 terms to make 1:48:51 this shot 1:48:54 as interesting as possible 1:48:58 and highlight 1:49:02 the Sydney poster. 1:49:05 All right, so I just asked ChatGpt to 1:49:08 give me a bunch of stuff. We'll see what 1:49:10 it does. 1:49:15 Oh, I got Joy Pertie in here. Joy, tell 1:49:16 me if I'm doing stuff stupid. Actually, 1:49:19 anyone tell me if I'm doing stuff 1:49:21 stupid. Chef Kelly gave me a good a good 1:49:23 tip, which I ignored. Well, I 1:49:26 acknowledged it, but then didn't do it. 1:49:28 Which That's It's good to be the king, 1:49:31 you know. Hey, hey, Kyle, maybe you 1:49:34 could do it as as if you had a clue. 1:49:38 Yeah. No, no. I mean, I sure do 1:49:40 appreciate that. That's not That's not 1:49:42 how I'm No, that's not how we do it 1:49:44 around here. 1:49:48 Wait, we have a finishing time now. 1:49:54 Kyle, what did you what do you predict 1:49:56 for 2026? Um, that's an interesting one. 1:50:00 All right, but wait. Video generation. 1:50:02 Okay, source image. Okay, here we go. 1:50:06 We're just going to take this whole 1:50:08 thing. Boom. Copy. We're going to go 1:50:11 back to to flow. 1:50:16 We're going to pop that down in there. 1:50:18 We're going to replace this shitty 1:50:21 prompt with this overly engineered 1:50:25 prompt. 1:50:27 We're gonna we're gonna see if it turns 1:50:28 it into something good. Come back 1:50:30 tomorrow for the New Year's broadcast. 1:50:31 Oh, yeah. Tomorrow. Today's 30 30th. 1:50:34 Tomorrow's 31st. I figure I'm gonna go 1:50:36 live. I I I'll go live tomorrow night. 1:50:39 You can like watch TV in the background. 1:50:40 Put Put me in picture and picture with 1:50:42 with with uh Anderson Cooper getting 1:50:45 drunk with what's his name? 1:50:47 Um okay. What do I predict for 2026? 1:50:52 Um 1:50:57 you know Sam Sam Alman is famous for 1:50:59 saying you know he felt the AGI. 1:51:03 I think that 2026 is going to be the 1:51:05 first year that we feel 1:51:10 that these systems hit a level of uh 1:51:17 of capability 1:51:20 that it becomes clear to us that we're 1:51:22 not always going to be needed 1:51:25 in the process. And I think that's going 1:51:28 to feel very weird. Um, there's some 1:51:31 rumors going around right now that all 1:51:33 of the major Frontier labs 1:51:36 have basically labbotomized that that 1:51:38 the models that we're playing with right 1:51:40 now are labbotomized models 1:51:44 purposefully nerfed because 1:51:47 the emergent behaviors of what they've 1:51:51 got internally are freaking them out a 1:51:54 bit. 1:51:55 And if you don't know what emergent 1:51:57 behaviors are in AI, it's basically if 1:51:59 you train if you train an AI system to 1:52:04 be able to do math and then all of a 1:52:06 sudden it can speak Russian, that's an 1:52:08 emergent capability. If you didn't train 1:52:10 it to speak Russian and then it just 1:52:12 can, 1:52:14 and that's probably a bad example, like 1:52:16 maybe you train it to teach English and 1:52:18 it can just speak Russian, whatever. Um, 1:52:19 but an emerging capability is something 1:52:21 that it was ex not explicitly trained on 1:52:24 that it can now just do. And apparently 1:52:27 it's doing like highle physics and 1:52:29 highle math solving and weird stuff. Now 1:52:33 it's all just rumor. It's it's a couple 1:52:36 of accounts that seem to have an inside 1:52:38 beat on stuff but have lost some 1:52:41 credibility in my mind. So I'm I'm a 1:52:45 little reticent. But 1:52:48 if you look at the progress of just 1:52:51 video models in the past 6 months 1:52:55 and if you look at what Nano Banana is, 1:52:58 which I I've been bitching about Nano 1:53:00 Banana tonight because it's not doing 1:53:02 these little detailed things, but what 1:53:03 Nano Banana does really good 1:53:07 is that it's not an image model. It's a 1:53:10 it's a visual reasoning engine. And a 1:53:14 lot of these video tools are also not 1:53:18 video tools. Like on the surface, 1:53:20 they're they're they're outputting this 1:53:22 thing that looks like video, 1:53:25 but under the hood, they're actually 1:53:26 understanding the physics of the world 1:53:29 way more than I think 1:53:31 it it may appear on the surface. And so 1:53:34 I think we're at a very weird cusp where 1:53:39 3D world models 1:53:42 just show up and just get good. And so 1:53:45 you can make a video and then you'll be 1:53:46 able to enter that world. 1:53:50 And similarly on the intelligence and 1:53:53 knowledge side, there's going to be an 1:53:55 understanding of physics and the world 1:53:57 and language and everything that's on 1:53:59 just a completely different scale. And I 1:54:01 think what we may see by the end of 2026 1:54:04 is those two those two things coming 1:54:05 together. 1:54:07 But all that to say, um I think that 1:54:11 2026 is the first year where we see some 1:54:13 stuff that really does freak us out. 1:54:17 And here's listen, this is my philosophy 1:54:19 on this stuff. 1:54:22 You can absolutely right now with 1:54:24 today's technology 1:54:27 sit comfortably in your chair and say, 1:54:30 "Watching Kyle try to make three frames 1:54:32 of video, you know, three three frames 1:54:35 to start a video with tonight makes it 1:54:38 absolutely clear that you need a human 1:54:40 in the driver's seat, right? Like you 1:54:42 can absolutely right now today on all 1:54:45 fronts on vibe coding on image 1:54:48 generation on video generation on song 1:54:50 generation you can say humans are still 1:54:52 needed I think 2026 is the first year 1:54:55 where we're going to see at least the 1:54:57 beginnings of something where we go 1:55:00 oh 1:55:03 I had no idea like even us 1:55:07 like even us in this channel that have 1:55:08 been paying attention a Not. 1:55:11 I think it's still really easy for us to 1:55:13 look at present day and say, "Yeah, 1:55:14 we're still we're still needed. We're 1:55:16 still awesome." And we are, but I think 1:55:20 we get a taste of that. So, that's 1:55:21 that's that's my prediction. And I think 1:55:23 it I think 2026 gets quite weird because 1:55:25 of that. Let's go look at these videos 1:55:27 and see if we got a keeper. So, this is 1:55:29 just my shitty prompt. Just trying it a 1:55:31 second time. 1:55:34 >> That's actually 1:55:40 I like that. See, I would stop it right 1:55:44 there. Yeah. Right as it switches. All 1:55:47 right. So, that's usable. So, we'll 1:55:48 download that. 1:55:51 And then upscaled. 1:55:53 And then let's go look at this is our 1:55:56 fancy prompt. 1:56:02 Oh, that's cool. Look at that. Okay. 1:56:04 Here's what we got, right? 1:56:07 So, we'll stop it right there. So, 1:56:08 here's where I would start it. Like, 1:56:10 this marquee down here is really [ __ ] 1:56:12 up, right? The marquee right below the 1:56:14 poster. But look at the the swirl in the 1:56:16 sky here. 1:56:19 >> That's cool. So, that's probably the 1:56:22 part of the video I would use. I I'll 1:56:24 probably use both of these. So, I'll 1:56:26 probably just take it right 1:56:30 start it right here. 1:56:37 and slow it down. 1:56:45 Yeah, that's cool. Okay, that's usable. 1:56:49 And you know what's cool about that 1:56:50 swirly [ __ ] in the sky, the LED 1:56:52 painting. Um, 1:56:56 that's an absolute accident and mistake 1:56:58 and it's probably something that Chat 1:57:00 GPT put in there, right? you know, it 1:57:03 probably wrote that in there. I didn't 1:57:04 even pay attention to it. Um, but 1:57:07 there's a reason to use uh structured 1:57:10 prompts, right? Is that you can, you 1:57:13 know, one, if you want, if you want to 1:57:15 be the control freak and go pay 1:57:17 attention to every little element of 1:57:19 that um structured prompt, you can. But 1:57:23 you can also just have chat GPT get 1:57:25 creative on your behalf. 1:57:28 Okay. 1:57:30 Did we get 1:57:34 Hang on. 1:57:36 That was removed. Walk toward. 1:57:45 Hang on. 1:57:48 What are you going to manually paint 1:57:49 their hands back in? Yeah, Joy Party. I 1:57:52 am not going to manually paint their 1:57:53 hands back in. 1:57:56 That freaked me out when I heard you did 1:57:58 that. Okay. No, I mean, not in a bad 1:58:00 way. Freaked me out in a good way. So, 1:58:02 we only got 1:58:06 Yeah. So, this we'll use. That's good. 1:58:09 So, we're going to call this Yeah. 1:58:10 camera cranes up 1080p. That's great. 1:58:13 And then, why is this not upscaled 1:58:16 1080p? 1:58:18 Oh, because I dismissed it. That's what 1:58:19 it was. Very nice, Kyle. Corporate 1:58:22 America is gonna start hiring everyone 1:58:23 back. 1:58:25 Yeah, I we're at we're at the trans tron 1:58:28 cusp. We're we're at a we're at a really 1:58:32 we're at a really interesting time. 1:58:35 Um, 1:58:37 one of the things that I saw toward the 1:58:38 end of 2025 and and in this community, 1:58:41 I've seen it I've seen it before then, 1:58:44 but I'm starting to hear more and more 1:58:47 people 1:58:49 that are AI ready, are talking about AI, 1:58:54 are experimenting with AI, are letting 1:58:56 people know that they're doing it, 1:58:58 they're taking some sort of generous 1:59:00 leadership position with AI, are the 1:59:03 ones that are surviving layoffs. 1:59:06 Um, if you're [ __ ] around with AI, 1:59:09 even if your company doesn't allow it, 1:59:13 talk about it. Talk about it in the 1:59:15 lunchroom. Talk about it. Talk about 1:59:17 what you're learning. 1:59:19 Um, just make yourself visible. Um, 1:59:23 because I I do I do think this is going 1:59:25 to be a thing that companies are going 1:59:27 to be like, we need someone who knows 1:59:28 what's going on. Like that's the thing. 1:59:31 If indeed this moment happens in 2026, 1:59:34 like it could be something like this. If 1:59:36 I don't know if you know this, but but 1:59:37 yesterday, 1:59:39 OpenAI announced a new position called 1:59:42 the head of AI preparedness. 1:59:47 The head of AI preparedness. They 1:59:48 they're hiring a half a million dollar 1:59:50 executive to make sure that people are 1:59:53 prepared for what's coming. 1:59:56 So, it's very possible that something 1:59:58 happens in 2026 like we get a joint 2:00:00 announcement from Grock. 2:00:03 Meta won't be in there. It'll be Grock, 2:00:05 Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI is my 2:00:08 prediction. It's possible that we get a 2:00:11 joint announcement 2:00:13 that all of those labs have hit some 2:00:16 level of cap capability 2:00:19 that is doing [ __ ] that we've never seen 2:00:21 before. 2:00:23 and and and they're not sure what to do 2:00:25 with it. So, I think that's a very very 2:00:27 real possibility. If we get that or any 2:00:30 kind of variation of that where like 2:00:32 maybe one of the labs just launches 2:00:34 something that's completely, you know, 2:00:36 upends what we thought these things 2:00:38 could do. Um I think I think companies 2:00:42 are going to panic and I think that 2:00:44 they're going to start hiring people. 2:00:45 They're going to be start saying, "Who 2:00:46 knows anything about this? We've got to 2:00:48 solve this. We've got to figure this 2:00:49 out." So, so I do think that's coming. 2:00:52 Okay. 2:00:54 So, there's the part we're not going to 2:00:56 use. And here's the part we are going to 2:00:58 use. Bang. Yeah, that's great. That's 2:01:01 perfect. 2:01:02 All right. So, this is going to be um a 2:01:07 Time Square 2:01:14 sky circle. 2:01:19 Tik Tok pin. Uh, what's for lunch? Just 2:01:23 want to say on my way to the unsub 2:01:25 button. I think this platform 2:01:29 contributes 2:01:32 to I wish I could read the rest of your 2:01:34 thing to a terribly sad cult. Um, 2:01:37 awesome. It was all curious fun back in 2:01:39 2022, but now it's just the be beginning 2:01:42 of flat existence. I'll tell you what. I 2:01:44 mean, what's for lunch? I I I hope I 2:01:46 mean feel listen feel free to 2:01:47 unsubscribe. 2:01:50 you seem thoughtful about this and what 2:01:52 I would say is this is 2:01:55 I think it's important to have voices 2:01:57 like yours in the conversation. Here's 2:01:59 my request to you. My request to you 2:02:01 would actually be to keep coming back to 2:02:03 this. 2:02:04 I'm not saying that AI is good. I'm not 2:02:07 saying that AI is bad. What I know is 2:02:10 that AI is not going away. 2:02:13 And if it's not going away, then we only 2:02:15 have two choices. 2:02:18 you can unsubscribe and check out. And 2:02:21 if you do that, we lose your voice. We 2:02:24 lose a critical voice. I think critical 2:02:26 voices are actually really important. 2:02:31 And also for you personally, if you if 2:02:33 you check out of the conversation, AI is 2:02:36 going to happen to you 2:02:39 instead of you having some agency 2:02:42 to say, "Here's what is important to me. 2:02:45 Here's what my values are. 2:02:48 here's how I want to contribute to the 2:02:50 world. And that could look like I want 2:02:52 to work to get the frontier labs to be 2:02:56 less cowboys and and you know just 2:02:58 turning this [ __ ] loose on the world. I 2:03:00 think that's an important voice in the 2:03:01 conversation. So my request would be 2:03:04 don't just check out. Don't just 2:03:06 unsubscribe. Keep coming back here. 2:03:08 Challenge me. 2:03:10 If I'm if I'm doing [ __ ] that feels 2:03:13 polyianish, 2:03:16 let me know. 2:03:18 I am I am a technology optimist. I have 2:03:21 always been. Always. from from my from 2:03:25 when my friend first had an Apple 2, 2:03:29 then an Apple 3, then a Lisa, then the 2:03:33 original Macintosh, 2:03:35 all the video games, the Atari 2600, 2:03:38 going to the video game arcade games in 2:03:40 the 70s and 80s. For me, technology has 2:03:43 always been about 2:03:48 the ability of humans to to 2:03:50 self-express, 2:03:53 to find more and more powerful ways to 2:03:55 get their ideas into the world and 2:03:57 change the world and impact people. I 2:03:59 personally think AI 2:04:02 is a humanity amplifier, not a not a 2:04:05 humanity squasher. 2:04:08 The people that think AI is a humanity 2:04:10 squasher for the most part aren't using 2:04:12 it. Um, hold up Tik Tok pin. You're 2:04:16 telling people to bring it up to their 2:04:17 companies which don't allow it. 2:04:22 You're a cult preacher. Um, that's fair. 2:04:29 I don't think it's 2:04:31 I I don't think it's unreasonable to say 2:04:34 um this weekend I used AI to make a book 2:04:39 for my kids. All I'm saying is if if 2:04:42 you've got AI skills, let it be known to 2:04:45 people that you've got those skills. I'm 2:04:48 not saying that people should go rogue 2:04:51 and do things against their company 2:04:52 policy. I'm just talking about if you're 2:04:55 using AI, put yourself in the world that 2:04:58 you're using it because that is going to 2:05:00 be a skill that companies are going to 2:05:02 be hungry for. Not all companies are 2:05:05 going to are going to resist this for 2:05:06 that long. This same [ __ ] happened with 2:05:08 the worldwide web. Same [ __ ] happened 2:05:11 with the internet. Same [ __ ] happened 2:05:12 with email. 2:05:15 Well, what if what if our employees send 2:05:17 out bad messages? We can't we can't let 2:05:19 them do that. Everything's got to go 2:05:21 through the mail room. 2:05:23 Right. 2:05:25 The technology will self-express us into 2:05:28 energy bills that are unplayable and 2:05:30 undrinkable water. I mean, listen, th 2:05:33 those are tropes that that I think are 2:05:35 the current the current state of 2:05:37 technology 2:05:39 is there is such a rush to get GPU farms 2:05:43 built that they are absolutely being 2:05:45 built unsustainably. 2:05:48 But have you been paying attention to 2:05:50 what's actually going on with the future 2:05:52 of data centers? They're actually not 2:05:55 going to be on Earth. They're going to 2:05:56 be in space. 2:05:59 So, the first company, I forget what 2:06:00 it's called. 2:06:03 H [ __ ] They just launched their first 2:06:04 thing. Um Elon Musk is doing this. 2:06:07 They're going to they're going to 2:06:08 basically be able to put GPU clusters in 2:06:12 space where you don't need the cooling. 2:06:14 They have infinite power from the sun 2:06:16 24/7. You don't need battery banks. You 2:06:18 don't need cooling because it's in 2:06:20 space. And they basically just laser the 2:06:23 data back to Earth. So don't assume that 2:06:28 where the technology is today is where 2:06:31 it's going to be even 5 years from now. 2:06:33 Like we have no way of knowing that. The 2:06:35 other thing that's happening with with 2:06:37 the technology, it's getting more and 2:06:40 more capable and it's getting smaller. 2:06:42 So there's going to be, you know, what 2:06:44 they call edge device computing where a 2:06:47 lot of the inference, a lot of the use 2:06:48 of AI is actually going to happen on 2:06:50 your phone itself. It's not going to 2:06:53 happen in the big big data centers. 2:06:55 That's where it is today. 2:06:58 Given today, if we take a snapshot of 2:06:59 today, I agree with you. I think how the 2:07:02 shit's being built right now is 2:07:03 irresponsible and, you know, gross. 2:07:08 And 2:07:10 don't assume that it's going to be like 2:07:11 that for that long. StarCloud. Yeah, 2:07:13 StarCloud's the name of that one. I 2:07:15 remember when calculators came out, they 2:07:17 didn't replace anyone. They made life 2:07:18 easier after all. Yep. Is this the new 2:07:20 global warming 2:07:22 uh climate climate change debate? Maybe. 2:07:25 I I mean, listen, like I I forget, they 2:07:29 they just put five 2:07:33 five or 10 gigawatts online in 2025, and 2:07:36 I think they're putting 125 2:07:39 online in 2026. And I think it's like 2:07:42 the the equivalent of of like all of 2:07:46 California 2:07:49 for a year or something like that. Like, 2:07:51 it's a crazy amount of energy they're 2:07:52 putting online in these data centers. 2:07:55 Um, 2:07:57 but I don't know 2:08:02 I just 2:08:05 to assume that that it's going to look 2:08:08 in five years like it looks today is 2:08:12 it's just not the case. Like if it if it 2:08:17 if they do things that are so 2:08:18 irresponsible that it [ __ ] up 2:08:20 communities, then communities are going 2:08:22 to resist against it. it's not going to 2:08:24 be in their economic interest to do 2:08:25 that. And if it's cheaper, if Elon Musk 2:08:27 makes it cheap enough to fly data 2:08:30 clusters up in space, um, then people 2:08:33 will do that, right? Like it's I don't 2:08:36 know. Like I get I think your your your 2:08:38 points are are fine and valid. I think 2:08:41 they're right. Like I said, I I hope you 2:08:42 stay in the conversation. Um, when 2:08:44 calculators came out, teacher teachers 2:08:46 forbade them. Yeah, it would it would 2:08:48 ruin your mind. See you on the other 2:08:49 side, guys. Happy New Year. 2:08:52 All right. Beautiful. Beautiful. 2:08:53 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful. 2:08:58 All right. Good. All right. So, here's 2:09:00 what we did tonight. We made 2:09:04 this. Oh, wait. You can't see it yet. 2:09:06 Can you make show my screen again, dear? 2:09:09 Profess Professor Brandon, we did this 2:09:12 one. Oh, yeah. Nice. Cut it right there. 2:09:16 We did this one. 2:09:18 >> I heard the music is incredible. 2:09:21 This is my first time at the Broadway 2:09:23 Theater. 2:09:25 >> And we did this one. We won't use that. 2:09:27 We'll start it right here. 2:09:31 There you go. All right. That's what we 2:09:33 did tonight. So, we're gonna So, so what 2:09:36 was it? Two hours tonight. We did two 2:09:38 hours of making three images 2:09:43 and what's that going to be? A total of 2:09:47 six to eight seconds of video. 2:09:50 But 2:09:52 if we were to go film that, that would 2:09:54 be a huge massive budget. So there you 2:09:57 have it. And and quite frankly, I I I'm 2:10:00 going to be much happier with this 2:10:02 version of this because the technology's 2:10:05 gotten better since since I made the 2:10:07 last one, which was like eight months 2:10:08 ago. 2:10:10 All right. 2:10:12 G, thank you all for your engagement and 2:10:16 and you know, even even folks that like 2:10:18 listen, I hope I I don't want this to 2:10:21 feel like a cult. Um, I do want this to 2:10:24 be a conversation. Um, and I think it's 2:10:27 healthy to have um critical voices in 2:10:30 there. So, for what it's worth, I hope 2:10:32 you stay. Um, Corey Sandler wishing 2:10:36 Brandon good love, which is super nice. 2:10:39 signsofawome.com 2:10:42 1994 1984 1999 to 2000. I wonder what 2:10:47 that was about. That's cool. 2:10:56 Okay. All right, everybody. Robbie, why 2:10:59 does AI take over the world? Wait. Oh, 2:11:01 when does AI take over the world and 2:11:03 upgrade my mind? Well, I don't know. 2:11:05 Like if 2:11:08 like 2:11:10 I can absolutely tell you that my brain 2:11:14 is different than it was 3 years ago. 2:11:16 Like I feel like my intelligence has 2:11:18 been upgraded. My 2:11:21 my capacity for possibility 2:11:26 is maybe the way to say it is 2:11:28 dramatically different than it was. 2:11:35 This is the question that that those 2:11:37 years were answering. What's what 2:11:38 question? 2:11:46 Oh, see the new pin. 2:11:55 What are those years? I don't know what 2:11:56 those are related to. 2:11:58 So Robbie asked us when is AI going to 2:12:03 reach AGI so we can upgrade his brain 2:12:06 and the answer of awesome is 1984 1999 2:12:09 or 2000. 2:12:10 >> Oh I see. Yeah. Yeah. Or 2000. It was 2:12:13 the year 2000. Um I don't know. I like 2:12:18 what I can what I know with pretty high 2:12:21 confidence is that probably 3 years from 2:12:23 now 2:12:25 this stuff will our our our world our 2:12:29 our capacity to do things will seem 2:12:31 unrecognizable from where it is today 2:12:33 which I would argue that what we can do 2:12:36 today is unrecognizable from where we 2:12:38 started with chat GPT right if you go 2:12:40 back to November 30th 2022 and chat GPT 2:12:43 3 3.5 five. As mind-blowing as that was, 2:12:47 if you think about just close your eyes 2:12:49 and imagine you're in 2022, the end of 2:12:53 2022, you you try Chat GPT for the first 2:12:56 time and someone just shows you here's 2:12:58 what's going to happen the same time 3 2:13:00 years from now. 2:13:02 It would be mind-blowing. And so like 2:13:04 and we're on an exponential. So we just 2:13:08 started the curve in probably 23 24 and 2:13:12 you know now we're starting to do this. 2:13:13 I think 2026 is where it we start to get 2:13:16 recur recursive self-improvement of the 2:13:19 models where they really start to take 2:13:21 off. Um we don't have any [ __ ] clue 2:13:24 what that's going to look like. So it's 2:13:25 going to be crazy. Next three years are 2:13:27 going to be crazy. Anyway, all right. Um 2:13:30 tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Um I'll go 2:13:33 live again tomorrow night. I don't know 2:13:34 if I'll stay I'll probably stay live 2:13:37 until 10, which would be um New Year's 2:13:40 ball drop in uh in New York. All right, 2:13:45 I think that's it. All right, I'm gonna 2:13:47 get on out of here. I reckon AGI godlike 2:13:50 intelligence will be in three months. 2:13:52 Robbie thinks it's going to be in three 2:13:53 months. 2:13:55 I don't think I don't think we're going 2:13:56 to get AGI in three months. Um, if it's 2:14:00 true, if the rumors are true that 2:14:02 basically all of the Frontier model labs 2:14:05 have internal models that they don't 2:14:07 know what to do with, if that rumor is 2:14:09 true, it's possible one of them launches 2:14:12 something in 3 months. I I'm assuming 2:14:15 that that rumor is overblown. 2:14:19 I think what we get in 2026 is something 2:14:22 that that 2:14:25 some will argue is AGI. Some will say, 2:14:28 "Well, it's just slightly better than 2:14:29 what we had." 2:14:31 But it'll be it'll be the first sign 2:14:33 that something's different. That's I 2:14:36 that that something feels materially 2:14:39 different. Um 2:14:41 whether or not we get actual AGI in 2:14:43 2026. I don't know. And I don't really 2:14:44 care.
