Description

Node-based everything seems to be the flavor of the day. Have you snapped digital lego blocks together yet? In this live session, Kyle Shannon provides a hands-on exploration of Weavy.ai, a powerful node-based AI platform designed for creative professionals. He introduces the concept of visual workflow builders as an increasingly essential way to manage the complexity of modern AI tools. Kyle walks through the Weavy.ai interface, demonstrating how to connect different nodes—from simple text prompts to various image generation models—to create a repeatable and shareable process. This approach allows creators to efficiently test multiple AI models simultaneously and build structured, predictable workflows for projects. The demonstration advances to a more complex pre-built template for "camera angle ideation." Using a single prompt about a 70s muscle car, Kyle showcases how the workflow automatically generates a series of images depicting the same scene from numerous different camera perspectives, including bird's-eye, close-up, and worm's-eye views. This highlights the tool's practical applications for rapid storyboarding and visual development. The discussion also touches on the potential for building sophisticated creative pipelines, such as enhancing prompts automatically or chaining multiple tools together to generate entire video sequences from a single idea. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?

0:01 Get your butt over here.
0:06 [Music]
0:25 You and I all alone.
0:29 Sunday morning he ran home.
0:34 Skes blue and a coffee strong. It's
0:37 true.
0:39 [Music]
0:42 Then I open my eyes to a dream realized
0:46 in front of me.
0:50 Then I got a clue what in the world has
0:53 happened to me.
0:56 [Music]
0:58 Think I think I'm happy
1:01 like first day summer vacation. Happy
1:05 got to get a little rest and relaxation.
1:08 Happy
1:10 like choir on Sunday morning singing
1:12 true.
1:19 [Music]
1:32 in a westerly
1:35 direction.
1:36 [Music]
1:39 This car is my train.
1:42 [Music]
1:44 I' been driving. I've been wondering
1:48 what it is I'm running from again.
1:52 Feel like an 80y old man
1:57 holding on to 29.
2:01 And up ahead on that horizon
2:05 is a California line.
2:07 [Music]
2:10 [Applause]
2:14 Up ahead of trucks carrying a wide load.
2:18 Three fat house cut in half.
2:20 [Music]
2:22 Cute little front door into two windows.
2:24 My lord
2:26 ain't sure whether to drive should last.
2:30 You see, I broke a home up myself once.
2:34 As I stumbled to that door,
2:38 I read a note by the dawn light
2:42 said, "Don't you come around here
2:45 [Music]
2:47 anymore."
2:48 [Applause]
2:49 Well, I've had enough
2:54 freedom on the rock.
2:56 Never was good with decision.
3:00 At least that's what I've been told.
3:03 [Music]
3:11 Oh, good people. Good people of the Tik
3:14 Tok, of the YouTube, of the Twitter, of
3:16 the LinkedIn. What is going down? What's
3:18 happening? was shaking. Hope everyone's
3:20 doing well
3:22 on this fine Tuesday night. We had a
3:24 lovely AI salon tonight. Had a good
3:27 crowd.
3:28 We had Curi from New SP No Spoon Studios
3:34 who is she is a an impressive woman
3:38 building,
3:40 delivering, building and shipping.
3:42 Building and shipping.
3:44 She's got [ __ ] out in the world. She's
3:46 just doing it.
3:47 She's just doing it, people. This is
3:50 This is the new way.
3:53 There's There's no There's no waiting.
3:56 There's no planning. She might have
3:58 planned,
4:00 but she's delivering.
4:03 [Music]
5:00 [Applause]
5:04 She came home again like slow moving
5:08 cold fronts. His
5:13 beard was warmer than a look in her eye.
5:19 [Music]
5:28 She said, "Give me a love that don't
5:31 freeze up inside.
5:33 [Applause]
5:34 [Music]
5:41 You said I have melted
5:43 in my time, dear.
5:47 [Music]
5:48 But to sit next to you, well, I shiver
5:51 and shake.
5:56 And if I knew love, well, I don't think
5:59 I'd be here.
6:04 Asking myself if I've got what it takes.
6:10 [Music]
6:13 Got to hit the right fretboard
6:17 or the right fret on the fretboard.
6:21 [Music]
6:26 All right, let's uh let's get rolling.
6:30 Let's get rolling. Let's get rolling.
6:32 Let's get rolling. Let's do something.
6:34 Everybody ready to do something?
6:37 What's happening? Oh, man. It's a light
6:39 light crowd tonight. All right. Well, it
6:41 is late.
6:42 So, so uh we'll just have us a we'll
6:45 have us a a nice short little thing.
6:47 Maybe maybe the crowds will come rushing
6:49 in. Um I figure first thing we'll do is
6:52 um
6:53 we'll play Gareth. Gareth did a uh an
6:57 entry for the door brothers contest
7:01 that's called the door or door like
7:04 there were three categories and one of
7:05 the categories was a door and so he made
7:08 this door video. So let's watch Gareth's
7:11 door video.
7:14 Your fantasies are our desire.
7:20 [Music]
7:26 [Applause]
7:28 [Music]
7:33 City rain falls down
7:36 on concrete in dreams.
7:41 Thousand faces past.
7:45 Nothing's what it seems.
7:49 One moment in the crowd,
7:53 one look, one glance.
7:57 Sometimes that's all it takes
8:03 for cir
8:06 behind closed doors
8:10 in the glow of blue light.
8:15 Searching through the dark
8:18 for something that feels right.
8:23 Fingers trace the glass.
8:27 Following the thread
8:31 into someone else's life
8:35 where angels tread.
8:39 >> All right, let's have some fun.
8:45 Step inside the dream where nothing has
8:48 a cost.
8:53 [Music]
8:55 >> Hey.
8:56 >> Hey, babe. How are you?
8:58 >> Good. Now,
9:00 [Music]
9:03 >> I've been looking forward to this.
9:07 >> Me, too.
9:08 >> I have a secret.
9:10 >> Oh, yeah. What's that?
9:12 >> You shouldn't steal photos of women and
9:14 not tell them.
9:16 I'm not that kind of girl.
9:20 [Music]
9:22 >> Back into the rain.
9:24 [Music]
9:26 But now the city's changed.
9:30 Every wall and window
9:35 has been rearranged.
9:36 [Music]
9:39 She walks through the same street,
9:43 sees what I have done.
9:47 The game was rigged from the start.
9:51 There's nowhere left to run.
9:54 >> Oh my god. What is going on?
9:59 keeps falling down
10:03 on concrete and
10:08 what we think is cracked left behind
10:11 your eyes.
10:28 City rain falls down
10:33 >> at the door. Your fantasies are our
10:36 desire.
10:39 >> That's cool.
10:41 There you go. Uh
10:46 that was pretty cool. I don't know if
10:48 Gareth's here. Nice job, though. Um, are
10:51 you paying $200 to test this? To test
10:54 what? That that video model. That was
10:56 not my video. That was Gareth's video.
10:59 Um, my only comment on his video was I I
11:02 wouldn't put, you know, 100% AI at the
11:05 end. I I don't think it's anyone's
11:07 business if you used or not. They can
11:09 figure it out. If it's a if it's a good
11:11 story, it's a good story. So, but uh but
11:15 yeah, nice. Good luck with that.
11:19 Um, oh wait, Sora 2, $200 for the API.
11:24 Is that true?
11:26 Is that what you were asking? The the
11:28 Sora thing, the API is 200 bucks a
11:32 month. Might be. I think it's 10 10
11:36 cents a second to render. So 200 bucks
11:40 is 10 seconds times
11:46 uh 200.
11:49 So however many 2,000 seconds and then
11:54 that's some amount of minutes.
12:00 Yeah. If you're going to get into doing
12:01 video at any kind of scale, you got to
12:03 have you got to have yourself a [ __ ]
12:05 budget with a budget with a capital B. A
12:09 capital B there, boys. Boys and girls.
12:14 Um, I want to go play with something.
12:22 Is it Weebi?
12:24 Wee AI? I think it's weebi
12:28 powered workflows built for creative
12:30 pros.
12:31 All right, let me share this tab.
12:42 If you're new here, my name is Kyle
12:43 Shannon and this is the AI learning lab.
12:45 We are going to go share a screen here.
12:52 Weevi artistic intelligence. So, this
12:55 has got one of those really [ __ ]
12:57 annoying interfaces
13:00 um that are designed by 21 year olds and
13:04 they're like, "No, we can make the font
13:06 smaller.
13:09 Screw the old people.
13:12 [Laughter]
13:18 Oh my god.
13:21 Every little fun." Um, I think I think 8
13:25 point 8 point font's fine.
13:30 I'm totally new to this. I know. Me too.
13:32 So, I have heard about Weevi now from
13:35 two people in two days and both people I
13:38 respect. One was Retroun Punk um who's
13:41 who's uh you know does digital and AI
13:44 and creative at an agency and the other
13:46 one was Liz Miller Gerschfeld who host
13:49 co-host the salon with me. Um,
13:54 they both told me about this today. So,
13:57 I figured I'd go we'd go check it out.
14:00 Um, I talked about this last night. I
14:02 talked about it tonight at the salon.
14:06 I know nodebased
14:09 interfaces have been around forever and
14:12 you've got make and you've got Zapier
14:14 does pseudo nodebased [ __ ] and you've
14:17 you've had databases that are nodebased.
14:19 We've had nodebased interfaces
14:21 interfaces for years, but
14:25 there was something about yesterday when
14:28 OpenAI launched agent builder. And even
14:31 though agent builder looks like it's a
14:32 bit rushed, it's not it's not we're not
14:34 going to be able to build anything in it
14:35 in here. It's just it's too wonky right
14:38 now. Um,
14:40 and then 11 Labs did a nodebased
14:43 workflow maker. like there's just it
14:45 feels like
14:47 the world's going to get pretty
14:48 complicated pretty fast
14:52 and there's there's a part of me that's
14:55 like we don't need to do this because 3
14:58 years from now all of this [ __ ] will be
15:00 behind a simple interface
15:02 but I just kind of feel like this is the
15:04 equivalent of learning math so you can
15:08 understand the power of a calculator you
15:10 know um I it's just feeling to me like
15:14 we've got to start something. So,
15:17 so there you have it. There you have it.
15:20 There's Daniel. Hey, Danielle.
15:24 Uhuh.
15:26 Is it lagging for anyone? Which which
15:29 one's lagging? Is it um Tik Tok or
15:32 YouTube?
15:35 Agent builders. They're sort of agent
15:37 build. Some are agent builders. This
15:39 one's just a workflow builder, but
15:40 you'll you'll see if I can figure out
15:42 how to use it.
15:43 Where? When? What? It's called Weevy
15:46 app. Awesy.
15:54 Tik Tok. No lag. Fine now. Okay, great.
15:57 Beautiful.
16:10 Multiple image models. V2.
16:18 Okay. Wait, why? Oh, because it it
16:20 opened a new tab. God damn these sites
16:22 that open new tabs all the time.
16:29 Very easy. Repeat four times, please.
16:32 It's fine for me. Tobias, hello. Hello.
16:35 Hello. Hello. Hey, everyone.
16:40 doesn't seem to be lagging for me. All
16:42 right, I think the lag lag issue is good
16:44 and gone. We're good.
16:47 Okay, so what we've got here,
16:51 we've got a prompt,
16:55 and that prompt
16:58 has an input
17:03 and an output.
17:05 And then we've got GPT image one, Flux
17:08 Pro Ultra, Miniax,
17:12 Lumaf, Photon, Recraft V3, Mystic,
17:16 Ideog, Stable Diffusion, Google Imagine
17:19 4, Fall AI, Higsfield Image, and Fall AI
17:24 Flux Crea, and the other one was Fall AI
17:30 Bite Dance Seeddream V3. And I think
17:33 that's up to V4 now. So what we might
17:36 want to do is update some of these here
17:39 nodes.
17:40 And then what happens then? You send it
17:45 to Mystic. Oh, and it makes videos.
17:47 Okay.
17:49 All right. I I sort of get what's going
17:51 on here.
17:53 Duplicate my files. But I I think I want
17:55 to start one from scratch.
17:59 So the the reason for this guys is
18:08 well well there's a couple of things. If
18:10 you're working with
18:13 clients, like I just did a job for a
18:15 client,
18:18 that
18:21 if the client had asked asked for my
18:23 prompts or what models I used and what
18:26 models I used when, I was just all kind
18:29 of managing it in my head. I'm like,
18:31 "Oh, let me jump over to this model. Let
18:32 me jump over to that model. Let me jump
18:34 jump." And if something didn't work, I
18:36 would just sort of give up on it on this
18:37 thing and then just copy the prompt and
18:39 go to something else. What this allows
18:41 you to do is put together test
18:43 environments where you can put in a
18:44 single prompt, test it across multiple
18:46 models and see which one works best, but
18:49 then you've got a a a workflow, a
18:52 repeatable workflow and a and a sharable
18:54 workflow that you can share with clients
18:56 or with other people, with other
18:58 creators.
19:00 I'm viewing a readonly version.
19:02 Duplicate my files. Okay. So, let's go
19:04 back to Oops.
19:07 Let's not do what I just did and destroy
19:10 that.
19:13 Looks like we got some new folks in
19:14 here. Welcome everyone. My name's Kyle
19:17 Shannon. We are on Weevie.
19:20 Well, we're going to be here in a
19:22 second.
19:24 and Weevie other than being a bad name.
19:29 It's like I I sort of get what it means,
19:31 but it was like that was the only domain
19:33 you could get. Come on.
19:40 I'm sure the founder of Wee is on here
19:42 right now. Hey man, we we paid a
19:45 consultant a lot of money for that.
19:47 Okay, Sora 2 has landed in Weevi. Check
19:49 it out in action.
19:52 Okay, nothing here yet. Start weaving.
19:54 Create new file.
19:57 Okay.
19:59 Welcome to the Weevie editor. Skip.
20:02 Start tutorial. I'm going to do the
20:03 tutorial. We're going to do this
20:04 together. All right. So, s here's what I
20:07 want you to do. Go to Weevi. Weevi
20:10 app.weeevi.ai.
20:12 Make an account. Hey, Kyle Achilles.
20:15 What's happening?
20:17 Please post a link. Okay.
20:20 Um,
20:23 Brandon's doing that
20:35 mouse,
20:38 hold the space bar
20:41 and click left to drag.
20:44 Okay. Oh, there you go.
20:47 Hold the space bar and left left click
20:50 to drag.
20:53 Okay.
21:01 All right.
21:06 This is prompt mode. Oh, this is a
21:08 prompt node. It holds a text prompt that
21:11 guides your image generation. Okay,
21:13 great. Next.
21:16 Hold command
21:19 command control
21:21 and scroll mouse wheel to zoom.
21:26 Okay. So just Okay. That does that. That
21:29 does that. Got it. Okay.
21:34 You have to
21:39 you have to load
21:44 on weev app
21:47 doesn't load. I don't I don't know what
21:49 that means. Brandon,
21:52 >> you're giving out app.weeevi.ai
21:55 that doesn't load unless you're logged
21:56 in. Other it's just weebi.ai if you're
21:58 not authent. Oh, load like load. I get
22:01 it now.
22:04 what you said. Okay. Drag and drop fast
22:07 flux
22:09 to to add a menu to your thing. Okay.
22:13 Got it. Fast flux. Got it. Click and
22:16 drag from the output handle
22:19 to the input handle. Got it.
22:25 All right.
22:27 Click run model. Where's run model?
22:30 150 credits. No active runs.
22:36 Click the
22:45 wh
22:47 why am I not seeing the run model
22:49 button?
22:50 Oh, because Okay, let here's why.
22:55 because it's it was down at the bottom
22:57 right hand corner of that box in like
23:01 sixpoint type. There it is. All right.
23:09 All right. So, my first wee. Yay. You
23:13 did it. Yay.
23:15 All right.
23:18 Start working on this workflow. Okay.
23:20 Cool.
23:22 And then we can say guidance flux fast
23:25 is the model aspect ratio we can do 16
23:27 by9s.
23:29 I can say run again.
23:32 All right. So it's one credit per
23:36 per run
23:38 it looks like.
23:44 All right. And then we're going to go
23:46 where are we going here? Are these image
23:48 models? Yes.
23:51 Imagine three
23:53 three credits.
23:55 I see. Highest quality, six credits. All
23:58 right, I'm starting to get this. There's
24:01 stable diffusion.
24:03 Where's Nano Banana?
24:06 Search.
24:08 Nano.
24:10 Nano Banana.
24:13 Bang. Out comes Nano Banana.
24:23 Run model.
24:34 All right, that's kind of cool.
24:37 Aspect ratio default.
24:41 You can do 16 by9 here.
24:44 Total cost four credits.
24:48 for Nano Banana.
24:50 I'm such a cheap bastard. I keep I see
24:52 those credits going down. I'm going to
24:54 be like,
24:56 "You son of a bitch."
25:02 All right. What else? What's in our
25:03 toolbox? Let's go look at our Let's go
25:06 look at our toolbox.
25:10 Compositor Painter. Wonder what a
25:13 painter does.
25:18 What's a painter do?
25:21 So, we're going to do the output of that
25:24 into the input of that.
25:29 Oh, and then you can paint on it.
25:33 Except I don't know what I'm doing. So,
25:37 so we're going to delete this.
25:43 Okay. Beautiful.
25:47 Um,
25:51 [Music]
25:54 mat extractor mask by text video mat
25:57 prompt
25:59 prompt concatenator. So you could take
26:01 two prompts and put them together.
26:03 Prompt enhancer.
26:06 Well, let's do that. Okay, this is so
26:08 this is kind of fun. So how how do I
26:10 break these? Do I just click on them and
26:12 delete them? Yep.
26:14 Okay, easy. So, we'll go prompt enhancer
26:20 and we're going to go from
26:22 shitty prompt to prompt enhancer.
26:25 And then we're going to go from prompt
26:26 enhancer out here.
26:31 All right. And so, we're going to do a
26:32 shitty prompt of 70s.
26:36 We'll do 70s
26:38 muscll car.
26:44 resto mod in abandoned factory. Shitty
26:48 prompt, but it's a classic.
26:51 And then I'm going to say run model. So,
26:53 let's zoom in on this thing. This is
26:56 actually pretty cool. Um,
27:00 yeah, I'm I'm I'm feeling like I'm
27:03 feeling like there are there are skills
27:06 to be had here.
27:09 All right. So there we do that. We run
27:12 the model.
27:15 Okay. No active runs prompt enhancer
27:18 models instructions. Your job is to
27:19 write prompts for textto image models.
27:22 Your input will be a general description
27:24 for the scene. You should write a
27:26 detailed prompt without any additions no
27:29 longer than three sentences.
27:35 Um we'll do no longer than five
27:38 sentences.
27:40 Um,
27:41 you should include
27:46 um
27:48 detailed
27:51 scene
27:56 subject.
28:04 Um,
28:07 scene, subject,
28:10 and
28:14 time of day.
28:17 You should include lighting,
28:22 visual style,
28:25 eg
28:29 um
28:31 impressionist
28:34 painting, um
28:36 uh
28:38 ectochrome
28:43 film,
28:44 etc.
28:51 What else do we want to include?
28:54 And
28:57 camera angle.
29:01 Camera angle. Okay. So now we wrote a
29:03 new prompt. So this is that's that's
29:06 shitty prompt writing. But this is
29:08 effectively prompt engineering, right?
29:10 We're creating an application here where
29:11 you put in a shitty prompt. You run your
29:14 model. Boom.
29:17 Capture a low angle
29:20 shot of a meticulously restored 70s
29:22 muscle car behind the soft diffused
29:25 light filtering through the grimy
29:27 windows of an abandoned factory which
29:30 I'll often write that the car's gleaming
29:32 paint contrast sharply with the
29:34 crumbling concrete bump sim simulate the
29:37 the nostalgic look of Kodakchrome film
29:41 emphasizing warm tones. Okay, this is
29:44 cool.
29:45 Um,
29:46 all right. So, this is Gemini Flash Nano
29:49 Banana. Can I change that
29:52 or do I have to bring out another thing?
29:54 I have to bring out another thing. Let's
29:55 go get a different model.
29:58 Chat GPT image one. Uh, let's do GPT
30:03 image one edit.
30:06 Well, GPT image sucks. Let's do uh is
30:10 Grock in here? Of course not, because
30:14 Elon Musk's a dick and he doesn't want
30:15 anyone to play with his toys. Um
30:21 um
30:25 well, let's let's go look at them
30:28 models.
30:31 Higsfield image. That one's kind of
30:33 cool. 21 credits. Oh, no. Wait.
30:41 Commercial use 21 credits. Good lord.
30:45 Imagine four
30:51 is six credits.
30:55 Imagine three fast is three credits.
30:58 Let's drag that one out there.
31:01 So, we'll grab from here. We'll go into
31:04 there. Oh, cool. You can do a negative
31:07 prompt, too.
31:09 No, that's pretty slick.
31:15 Oh, ideog.
31:17 How much is that? Four credits. That's
31:19 pretty cheap.
31:21 Ideog V3 character. Create consistent
31:25 character.
31:28 Oh, that could be a cool thing we could
31:30 do. You could start with an image. So
31:34 you could basically go image prompt
31:36 image in image prompt prompt enhancer
31:39 image
31:41 and then take that image into
31:45 like of a person
31:47 and then use ideoggram v3 character and
31:50 have that person in a bunch of different
31:52 scenes that each have their own prompt.
31:55 Yeah, that's kind of cool. All right, I
31:56 like that.
31:58 Um
32:02 all right so let's do aspect ratio 16
32:05 by9
32:06 16 by9 16 by9
32:12 output quality runs
32:15 all right run model
32:19 run model
32:27 run model
32:30 and then I think there's a way I can I
32:32 can run the output into something
32:34 that'll send it to all of them
32:36 automatically.
32:38 So now we're down to 132 credits. By the
32:41 way,
32:51 there's Nano Banana.
32:54 Nano Banana is pretty [ __ ] good.
32:58 This is Google imagine three fast.
33:06 The hell is that car?
33:13 That's like a 74 Mustang ass end, but
33:17 it's wider.
33:20 That's bizarre.
33:23 Okay. Um All right. Let me shrink that
33:26 down. Can you organize these? How do you
33:29 organize them? What do you do? Do I
33:31 right click? No.
33:36 Uhuh. Uhuh. Uh uh uh.
33:39 Is there an organized thing?
33:42 Prompt import quick access.
33:49 Import multiple lures. I wonder if you
33:51 can create lures. I bet you can.
33:57 Blur
33:59 mask
34:01 prompt prompt concentrator.
34:04 Join multiple text inputs into one
34:07 output.
34:08 Prompt enhancer.
34:11 Image describer. Very cool. Video
34:13 describer. Text iterator.
34:17 Iterate over a list of values. Import.
34:20 Export.
34:22 Router.
34:27 All right. So, let's take
34:34 Right.
34:38 Oops.
34:42 I do. No. This. No. This. This. This.
34:49 Okay.
34:51 And then I go and I go and I go
34:57 and I go
35:00 and I go and then I go this down here
35:02 into that router. Right. Isn't that
35:06 right?
35:07 I think that's right.
35:11 What's this assets?
35:18 Okay. So, let's go do
35:22 let's do a shitty another shitty prompt.
35:25 Uh, let's say um
35:29 um grizzled
35:32 old
35:34 New England
35:37 fisherman
35:40 smoking
35:44 near the docks.
35:47 Okay.
35:50 And then I guess I go over here
35:57 and I run it. Bang.
36:02 Bang.
36:04 Is it running?
36:09 A weathered New England fisherman with a
36:12 long white beard sits on a wooden crate
36:14 near a bustling dock at dawn.
36:17 He wears a thick wool sweater over his
36:20 hat, puffing thoroughly on it. Does
36:22 anyone have questions? Is this making
36:24 sense what I'm doing? Kicking the tires.
36:25 Yeah, totally kicking the tires right
36:27 now. I made it early but grossly
36:29 misjudged my alcohol intake.
36:35 That is beautiful. I love that. Um, how
36:39 do I organize this [ __ ] Anyone? Does
36:43 anyone have any idea?
36:46 So, I select them all.
36:49 Select them all.
37:28 I need three three more lifetimes to
37:30 figure out how to use all this stuff. I
37:32 know it. Well, this is this is the uh
37:36 this is the rub right now. So, here
37:38 here's here's I think the antidote to
37:40 that, Jeff, is
37:44 just figure out what you want to do
37:47 first. Don't worry about the [ __ ]
37:50 tools.
37:53 Like I want to learn I want to learn how
37:55 to do this.
37:57 Like the what's what's popping in my
37:59 head right now is this is cool, but it's
38:01 going to be really expensive and it's
38:02 going to be really tedious.
38:06 But what what what this actually is is I
38:09 bet there's a lot of people out there
38:11 that have set up workflows that you can
38:14 just go use and they're pretty [ __ ]
38:16 cool. So we should probably go look at
38:18 that now that we generally understand
38:20 how it works. What I don't get though is
38:22 why
38:26 duplicate delete lock. Why is this
38:29 router not routing?
38:32 Because I ran the model.
38:41 How do I get it to
38:54 I don't get it. I don't get it. I do not
38:58 understand
39:03 anybody.
39:06 3D models,
39:14 community models, image upscale,
39:16 clarity, video smoother, ID
39:19 preservation, control.
39:23 Good [ __ ] lord, there's a lot here.
39:27 Video utilities, video concatenator.
39:31 Oh, that's cool. So you could generate a
39:33 bunch of video pieces.
39:36 So actually what you could do
39:39 Oh, this is this is probably some
39:41 version of what Carrie did and or Kerry
39:44 did in her app that she demoed tonight
39:46 in the salon
39:50 except she had uh what you call it build
39:52 it for. She probably didn't build it
39:53 here. But you could build a workflow
39:56 that takes an input,
39:58 generates a script with eight different
40:00 scenes that tell a narrative arc,
40:03 generate images for each one of them,
40:05 start and end images for each one of
40:07 them, run a video model that takes input
40:11 and output images, run both of those in
40:13 there,
40:16 generate the clip, concatenate all the
40:18 clips, and generate a movie. Yeah, you
40:22 could you could totally do that with
40:25 this model. What's video utilities
40:30 input file result
40:34 frames per second
40:39 basic video processing convert input to
40:42 MP4
40:43 input to GIF. Tik Tok question. Yes.
40:47 Yes. someone had a question on the Tik
40:49 Tok.
40:51 Wouldn't it be easier to just write a
40:53 prompt
40:56 in a difficult platform? I'm not getting
40:58 this. Okay, so here's here's
41:03 here's the the the trick source camp.
41:06 Um,
41:08 let me get rid of this thing. Get rid of
41:11 that node. So, what I don't know how to
41:13 do right now is um
41:20 is autotrigger this router. But, but
41:23 basically what I've got here is a shitty
41:26 prompt and then there's a mo a node here
41:29 where I can improve the prompt and I can
41:31 control that. So, I write a shitty
41:33 prompt. It automatically writes a better
41:35 prompt and then I've selected three
41:37 different models over here. And so from
41:40 one prompt I get three different
41:42 outputs. And I could have nine different
41:43 outputs or a dozen different outputs. Or
41:46 I could have a single image output or or
41:49 sing single image input and then have
41:52 eight different
41:54 um scenes with that same character in
41:57 it. Let's go let's go look at some
42:00 different um
42:03 some different workflows.
42:12 Maybe it didn't auto route because it
42:14 wasn't new images. You redid them. I
42:16 don't know.
42:18 This This is the kind of [ __ ] like this
42:21 is the kind of [ __ ] with software,
42:23 right? Like you can learn whatever I
42:25 just learned in 15 minutes, but it's
42:27 going to take me three hours to figure
42:29 out how to auto route auto trigger those
42:31 things.
42:34 Back to my files. Okay.
42:37 So workflow library
42:41 weave welcome
42:43 multiple image models v2
42:46 editing images compositing node image to
42:50 video
42:52 camera angle ideiation. That sounds
42:55 cool.
42:58 Yeah, look at this. Okay, so here source
43:01 camp. Look, let's let's go look at what
43:03 this does.
43:06 You put in a prompt.
43:08 You're given a reference image of a
43:09 scene.
43:12 Any LLM
43:15 using the provided image. Okay. Wait.
43:21 Oh, okay. Wait. So, it starts up here.
43:24 Got it.
43:26 Oh, I see. I see. Okay. So, Oh, I'm not
43:31 sharing. God damn it. Hang on. So,
43:33 source camp. Look at this. and all of
43:36 you look at this. So,
43:39 so we've got in the upper leftand corner
43:42 here
43:44 is a prompt that generates an image and
43:47 then that image it looks like
43:51 comes into this thing which generates
43:56 this. No, no, this is a prompt for this.
44:02 Okay. So the image the image comes into
44:04 this LLM
44:06 which uses this prompt to do something
44:08 with it
44:10 and then it goes out into
44:15 use the provide using the provided image
44:18 keep the style and subject similar
44:21 list
44:27 and then this is Gemini 2.55 flash nano
44:31 banana
44:32 And the prompt is coming in from oh I
44:35 see here. So if I click on this
44:45 using the provided image.
44:49 Ah
44:51 show more.
45:02 Ah, each prompt must must begin exactly
45:05 with using the provided image, keep the
45:08 style and subject details similar and
45:11 modify the camera to match this. After
45:15 that phrase, describe a compositionally
45:18 different camera perspective.
45:21 Okay.
45:23 So then it makes a pile of prompts and
45:27 then those prompts go into this text
45:29 array.
45:32 Oh, I see. Oh, this is cool. So, okay.
45:35 So, and it's split by it's split by an
45:38 asterisk. So, in the text right here,
45:42 when it finds an asterisk, which right
45:44 at the beginning of this paragraph,
45:45 there's an asterisk. So what this what
45:48 this text array does is it takes this
45:50 longass prompt and it splits it into
45:53 individual nodes
45:56 individual and then and then this array
46:02 these are the individual prompts for all
46:05 these different windows. Okay, I got it
46:08 now. Okay, cool. Watch. So watch. Let's
46:10 let's just use this once. This is going
46:11 to cost us a lot of credits, but that's
46:13 okay. You're in read only. So like
46:15 duplicate to my files. So now we have a
46:18 version of this that's ours.
46:22 So now I can go in. So now it'll start
46:24 to make sense. Source camp. Um
46:27 let me see. Um
46:30 70s
46:32 resto mod.
46:35 Let's see. 70s
46:38 muscle car
46:40 restood.
46:44 Um, idling in an
46:53 abandoned
46:56 factory.
46:59 Um,
47:01 the driver
47:04 in the car has
47:07 a mustache.
47:14 um
47:16 and sideburns
47:20 and has seen
47:24 better days.
47:27 The car looks great.
47:31 Um great.
47:35 Let's see. Uh,
47:38 sunset light
47:43 breaks through the smudged
47:48 factory windows.
47:52 We'll leave it at that.
47:55 Okay. Now, how do I do all these things
47:59 run automatically
48:02 if I run this one thing?
48:05 We'll find out, I suppose.
48:27 Okay, there's our car.
48:30 There's our dude with a mustache who's
48:32 seen better days.
48:43 So then I guess I run this model
48:54 using the provided image. Okay, so
49:00 there's got to be to a way to run all of
49:03 these in a row, right?
49:08 Anyway, all right. Here's one. Here's
49:11 one.
49:13 Here's one. Here's one. This is going to
49:15 eat up all of our credits,
49:18 but this is going to be cool.
49:20 Here's one.
49:22 Here's one. Here's one.
49:26 I don't know what I'm doing. I'm
49:28 clueless. Clueless. Clueless.
49:31 I don't know what I'm doing. But look,
49:35 here's the undercarriage of the car.
49:36 This is actually really cool. Here's the
49:38 hands on the steering wheel. Here's the
49:41 shot. That's not the worm's eye view,
49:42 right? There's the There's the That was
49:44 our original shot, right?
49:49 I don't know why these two didn't get a
49:51 prompt. Oh, they're still rendering.
49:53 Look, there's the bird's eye view.
50:00 This is cool.
50:03 This is very cool.
50:12 Huh?
50:15 Uhoh. What happened? Gemini could not
50:18 generate an image with a given prompt.
50:20 Try again.
50:38 weevi.ai. Yep, that's correct. Really
50:42 curious how anyone uses this at work.
50:47 Is it just an experimental storyboard?
50:50 Um, I think it's a bit more than an
50:52 experimental storyboard. I think, well,
50:55 for one thing, you can share these
50:56 workflows.
50:59 So, so like what we're doing here is
51:02 like I don't I don't know what the [ __ ]
51:04 I'm doing, so I don't I don't quite know
51:06 how to troubleshoot this thing,
51:09 but this is write a single prompt and
51:12 get
51:14 10 different shots, 10 10 different
51:16 angles of that of that shot.
51:19 Um,
51:22 so this is a storyboard generator,
51:24 right? Or this is a this is a shot
51:27 possibility generator.
51:30 So this could be a component in a larger
51:33 application where you actually call this
51:35 this workflow
51:37 and behind the scenes it's it's doing
51:40 all the code and doing all the API
51:41 calls, right? And so all you would do is
51:43 I'm sure there's a way
51:46 I'm sure there's a way to grab the URL
51:49 or the something from this. Duplicate
51:52 delete lock.
51:56 I don't know. Maybe there's a an API
52:00 hook somewhere.
52:02 Video smooth. That's all AI [ __ ]
52:06 3D models. That's video models.
52:10 Image models. Toolbox
52:13 levels compositor crop blur channels
52:17 extract video
52:19 mask prompt prompt con concatenator
52:23 prompt enhancer image describer video
52:26 describer. That's cool.
52:29 So like here's yeah this is so this is
52:32 something that that could be really
52:34 interesting, right? You
52:39 you upload a video to something. You
52:42 analyze the frames of that video. Figure
52:44 out where the the visual story
52:48 story changes are.
52:50 Then you do the same with dialogue. Then
52:52 you marry those two. You could you could
52:54 storyboard out an existing video
52:56 automatically.
52:58 Text iterator. I don't quite know how
53:00 that works. Import Laura.
53:03 Import multiple Lauras
53:06 data types input number text list toggle
53:10 seed array
53:14 and then there's a bunch of images image
53:17 models
53:20 enhance image.
53:26 Yeah, this is this is
53:29 another thing this could be used for is
53:30 testing, right? You could put together.
53:34 God, man. You could spend [ __ ] weeks
53:36 in this thing. If you really wanted to
53:39 understand the state-of-the-art for
53:42 image, video, audio,
53:44 and what's possible with it, if you
53:46 spent a month with this thing,
53:50 you'd actually understand what's going
53:52 on. That's pretty crazy. All right. Um,
54:00 looks like the evidence of a bad
54:02 detective series.
54:04 Well, two two of my things are not
54:05 running because the prompt is bad.
54:09 Which which two are they? Uh, five and
54:11 six.
54:16 I don't know what order these are.
54:20 So, wait. One, two, three,
54:24 and then four, five, six. Three and six.
54:28 So if I go
54:31 here,
54:34 I go one, two, three. This one
54:39 to match wide establishing shot with the
54:41 car minuscule emphasizing the vast
54:43 sunlet industrial space. What's wrong
54:46 with that?
54:48 Can I edit this? No.
54:52 Oops. Yes, I can.
55:04 Huh.
55:07 So, I got to run this again.
55:28 [Music]
55:36 Civot is a platform for trained lures or
55:39 stylized generations. More style control
55:42 basically instead of dude with mustache
55:44 in anime style. Use a trained Laura.
55:46 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For the look you want.
55:48 Yep.
55:51 Should show him civet stuff would blow
55:53 his mind. If he likes images. Yeah. I
55:56 like I haven't gotten into the whole dev
55:58 side of this thing because it's it's
56:00 tough enough keeping keep just keeping
56:02 up with the commercial
56:04 the commercial [ __ ] Um but there I got
56:07 there I got those two things to render.
56:10 So now we have now we have all the
56:11 shots.
56:14 Can you download these images?
56:17 Download current.
56:20 Yeah,
56:22 download current.
56:26 And then I have to [ __ ] name it.
56:29 [ __ ] Uh,
56:32 so
56:36 this is exhausting. Yeah, you have to
56:38 like you have to have naming conventions
56:40 prepared for all this [ __ ] Like at some
56:42 point what I should do is I should
56:44 output all of those images into a
56:46 folder, then have the folder
56:48 automatically zip it, and you download
56:50 the zip, and then you've got all your
56:51 named
56:53 named files based on the prompt. You
56:56 could you could totally do this. You
56:58 could totally do some powerful [ __ ] with
57:00 this.
57:04 But like what I want what I want to
57:06 know, like whoever asked the question
57:07 about like what do you do with this? Is
57:09 this is this just a glorified
57:10 storyboard? If it's just a glorified
57:12 storyboard, it's a little too much work.
57:14 If I can take this workflow and actually
57:16 call it via the Weave API
57:20 and I can have it just auto run all this
57:22 [ __ ] So, I can put in a single prompt
57:24 into an application and it spins its
57:27 wheels and then it starts spitting out
57:30 these outputs. That would be pretty
57:32 [ __ ] cool, don't you think?
57:41 Is the dude still in there? Yeah, he's
57:43 still in there.
57:46 Is he still in there? Yep. His head's
57:48 too big. Is he still in there? Yep.
57:53 Yeah. This is pretty crazy. So, this is
57:54 Nano Banana. Like, it kept it's The car
57:57 is the same in all the shots.
58:00 The guy's the same in all the shots.
58:04 That's pretty remarkable. I mean, not
58:07 for nothing,
58:10 think about if you wanted a shot like
58:12 that for a commercial
58:14 and then the director was like, "Well,
58:16 we need all these angles. We got to get
58:18 under the car,
58:20 right? We need we need an underexposed
58:23 one. We need his hands on the wheel. We
58:25 need one from the hubcap view. We need
58:28 it over over the driver's side. We need
58:31 the close one. We need the one over the
58:33 top. We need the one with dust after he
58:36 smashes into something.
58:39 Yeah, this is cool.
58:42 And then you could run each of these
58:44 images out to video models
58:47 if you really want to blow through your
58:48 credits.
58:52 I wonder how much credits are. Let's go
58:54 find out how much credits are.
58:56 Um, credits. Get more credits.
59:01 $19 a month for 1,500 credits. So about
59:06 3,000. So I started out with 150
59:09 credits.
59:11 That's 375
59:13 images.
59:15 Well,
59:18 no,
59:21 no, that's not right. Some of these
59:24 images are six credits. They said three
59:28 375 images.
59:30 That's not right.
59:39 Most people are paying 36 bucks a month.
59:43 45 if you go monthtomonth. I would go
59:45 monthtomonth.
59:47 Team $60 per user per month and they get
59:51 4500 credits.
59:56 Plus, they get unified billing.
1:00:03 All right, let me go look at Civet
1:00:06 because I know Civet was something that
1:00:07 was cool. I'll just go here. I don't
1:00:10 care about this thing. Civetuh
1:00:15 Civet AI, the home of open-source
1:00:18 generative AI
1:00:20 featured images.
1:00:27 Yeah. Yeah. This is this is all cool and
1:00:30 all except if you think you were
1:00:32 overwhelmed with commercial options.
1:00:39 Go to go to the world of open source and
1:00:42 let yourself be swallowed in
1:00:44 possibility.
1:00:47 All right. Um I gotta stop trying to pay
1:00:50 attention and learn because my head
1:00:52 hurts.
1:00:54 Ah um Tik Tok question Tyler
1:01:00 all platform for image generation or
1:01:02 overpriced UI for the use of an API.
1:01:06 Yeah, everything can be scheduled.
1:01:12 I think we can get super intelligence by
1:01:14 2030 if the models make better versions
1:01:16 of themselves. Yeah,
1:01:21 he's agreed. I'll eventually try to
1:01:22 reproduce my dreams with AI.
1:01:26 Oh, I did that one night. One night.
1:01:32 I had a dream.
1:01:35 This was when I was first playing with
1:01:37 AI. I had a dream and I woke up
1:01:41 and I described my dream to chat GPT
1:01:46 and then I said, "Write an image prompt
1:01:47 for that." And then I went into one of
1:01:49 the image generation tools and generated
1:01:51 it. It was pretty cool.
1:01:54 You could totally build that.
1:02:05 And a year ago, these tools were
1:02:07 struggling
1:02:08 to spell car correctly. Yeah. It's
1:02:10 crazy.
1:02:14 They doing that in real world brain
1:02:16 patterns.
1:02:18 Oh, of dreams to AI. Oh, that's cool.
1:02:22 That's cool.
1:02:24 All right. Holy [ __ ] my eyes are
1:02:26 crispy. I gotta go. My My eyes are done.
1:02:28 It's time. That's funny. Brandon just
1:02:31 said the same thing. He knows me all too
1:02:34 well. Um, producer Brandon, listen, I
1:02:37 would stay with you guys for hours, but
1:02:39 producer Brandon says I have to go to
