Description

In this May 2023 livestream, I discuss the massive job displacement on the horizon from AI and automation. While profound changes are ahead that could decimate workforces, I share an optimistic perspective. With access to powerful new tools, displaced workers can gain skills, start businesses and build technology themselves. Rather than resist progress, embracing it with intention allows us to guide AI toward human-centric outcomes over profit-driven ones. There will be difficult transitions, but if people get curious and learn now, many new opportunities will emerge. What are your thoughts on the coming workforce impacts of AI? Let me know in the comments! Chapters: 0:00 - Introduction 3:10 - The pace of change feels familiar 6:20 - AI job displacement will be significant 10:55 - Displaced people can use AI to innovate 14:15 - Corporate misuse of AI is a concern 18:30 - AI art requires craftsmanship 22:10 - The need for AI safety and oversight 26:00 - Education will be profoundly disrupted 30:20 - The promise of increased leisure time 34:00 - AI can connect us if we embrace it 38:40 - The need for intention in using AI 42:30 - The opportunity in turbulent change 46:15 - Background on my early internet experience 49:40 - AI job loss is not inevitable if we act 53:30 - Preparing workers to transition careers 57:20 - Keeping humans at the center of progress #ai #future #jobs #work

0:02 all right and we're live let them know
0:06 we're live
0:17 [Music]
0:20 hello hello
0:22 I am Kyle Shannon this day I learning
0:25 left my hair is crazier tonight than it
0:26 was last night and last night was
0:28 special
0:29 hey everybody
0:31 how are you doing I am live
0:34 talking about Ai and apparently hair
0:37 care product which I am in need of
0:41 yeah this is like two toupees got in a
0:44 fight and I lost
0:47 um yeah if uh if you want to talk about
0:50 AI some interesting stuff happened today
0:53 um stability AI launched a
0:57 um
0:59 a new image model that does text so you
1:02 can put in text it's called exit called
1:06 uh I forget hold
1:09 I can figure this out I have the
1:11 technology deep Floyd how could you
1:13 forget that
1:15 deep Floyd let's go look at Deep Floyd
1:19 deep Floyd is this new image model that
1:25 um
1:26 we will accept their cookies
1:29 High degree of photorealism the ability
1:32 to do text so
1:34 check out these things
1:37 am I cool
1:38 can I make that bigger
1:40 make Floyd deep again so it is
1:44 successfully doing text on images
1:48 um so that's out that's out in developer
1:52 release so it's on hugging face and it's
1:55 on GitHub and I'm sure it'll be rolled
1:58 into other tools incredibly quickly like
2:00 everything else is
2:02 um so that happened and then what else
2:05 did we have happened today we had uh
2:08 Timothy
2:11 what's his last name
2:13 was it Timothy
2:16 um let's see Godfather of AI god father
2:19 of AI
2:23 um
2:25 yeah Timothy Hinton or Jeffrey Hinton
2:28 Jeffrey Hinton
2:30 um is the guy that basically invented a
2:33 lot of the neural net uh things he won
2:36 the Turing test in 2018 for his work on
2:38 artificial intelligence he quit Google
2:41 today so that he can spend more time
2:44 warning the world of the dangers of the
2:47 stuff he created
2:50 um so yeah that's a little terrifying
2:52 but uh yeah quit Google indeed indeed if
2:55 you have any questions feel free to ask
2:58 um any questions you have about AI I'm
3:00 happy to talk about AI That's What We Do
3:02 here it's the AI learning lab
3:05 um I I'm particularly interested in
3:08 generative AI I'm also particularly
3:10 interested in um
3:12 practical uses of it like actually
3:14 applying this stuff getting curious
3:16 about it I think that
3:18 the amount of disruption that AI is
3:20 going to cause is going to be
3:21 significant IBM today announced I think
3:25 it's over five years they're they're
3:27 going to reduce 7 500 jobs or 7 600 jobs
3:32 and replace them with AI now
3:35 coming from IBM they
3:39 um
3:40 you know they made a lot of fanfare
3:42 about Watson AI a bunch of years ago and
3:44 it didn't go so well
3:46 um so
3:48 that one feels to me like like a
3:51 marketing push as much as anything like
3:53 Hey we're good at AI too and we're going
3:55 to replace a bunch of jobs but I think
3:56 it's
3:57 um I think it's kind of against their
3:59 brand
4:00 um are we headed toward Matrix level
4:02 event
4:03 um I I don't think well some would argue
4:06 we're already in a matrix
4:08 um so we're already in a simulation uh I
4:12 don't I don't believe that but you know
4:13 you know I I suppose time travel is
4:16 possible all that sort of stuff I don't
4:17 think we're in a matrix situation
4:19 anytime soon but I do think
4:23 I think that we're you know
4:25 if you look at some of the plugins like
4:28 like uh
4:30 um stability or open AI today launched a
4:34 plug-in called code interpreter let me
4:37 go check this out
4:39 um open AI code interpreter
4:45 that is astonishing
4:48 um let me see if I can find it code
4:50 interpreter
4:52 here's the thing is this one of these
4:54 has a movie
4:57 this is it
5:00 yeah this is it here
5:03 um
5:04 it um
5:07 you can upload 100 megabyte spreadsheet
5:10 file and it basically becomes a data
5:12 analyst not a tool that a data analyst
5:15 would use you can upload a massive
5:17 spreadsheet of data and then just say
5:20 what's interesting about this data and
5:22 it will tell you and then you can say
5:23 make me charts of the most interesting
5:26 Trends you see comparing this that and
5:28 the other and it will just do that for
5:30 you it'll write python code to generate
5:32 the charts and graphs
5:35 um it's just remarkable so here let me
5:37 make this bigger
5:39 there it is drawing a graph
5:43 is it still playing I think it's still
5:45 playing oh yeah
5:47 and then plot a tangent to the line
5:50 and it's calculating
5:53 and it wrote the code so there's your
5:55 tangent to the line so so
5:58 this the
6:00 SE tools are just getting so remarkably
6:04 um they're getting so remarkably
6:06 sophisticated in such a short amount of
6:08 time that things are just going crazy
6:11 let's see what questions can I answer AI
6:14 is the future yes I agree
6:17 um
6:18 robot robot robot robot yeah lots of
6:20 robots the agents are gonna be our
6:22 friends
6:24 we hope
6:25 uh I don't think we're headed to a
6:27 matrix style event at least not in the
6:29 next 10 years the next 10 years are
6:30 going to be fun and interesting but
6:33 incredibly disruptive
6:36 um I need to figure out how to start
6:38 monetizing chat gbt any ideas talk to
6:41 chat GPT about that seriously tell chat
6:43 GPT to act like an entrepreneur and
6:48 um
6:49 and tell it
6:51 your skills tell it what you're
6:53 passionate about
6:55 tell it what you want it to do
6:58 um
6:59 and and have it come up with business
7:01 ideas for you and then start asking a
7:04 question here's a good way you can
7:05 interact with chat GPT is almost treat
7:08 it like a co-founder if if you want to
7:10 start making money with chat GPT use
7:12 chatgpt as your co-founder tell it what
7:14 you're interested in tell it what you're
7:16 good at have it do the stuff you're not
7:18 good at have it come up with ideas for
7:20 you and then why don't you become the
7:22 agent of chatgpt rather than the other
7:25 way around and and just start doing what
7:27 it tells you to do and see Siri end up
7:30 um am I excited about elon's x-corp um I
7:33 I'm a little cynical about it just
7:35 because
7:36 he's so competitive with open AI he
7:38 doesn't like where Sam Altman's taking
7:41 um uh open Ai and chat GPT so he signs
7:46 on to this
7:48 um six-month pause letter that you know
7:50 a bunch of Industry luminaries signed on
7:53 to and
7:56 um and then a week later he starts x dot
7:58 Ai and has 10 000 gpus delivered to
8:01 Twitter headquarters so he can start
8:02 building his own model so I'm a little
8:05 cynical about it um he's just
8:07 competitive
8:08 um he however is a guy that gets things
8:10 done and he builds things right he's
8:11 building rockets that are going to fly
8:13 to Mars if you saw the the Starship
8:16 launch it was truly remarkable and you
8:18 know he's kind of single-handedly made
8:20 electric cars a reality so the guy can
8:23 get stuff done so I have no doubt that
8:26 he's going to turn x dot AI into
8:29 something but he's going to be
8:32 fairly far behind
8:34 um the development curve and he's
8:37 probably going to be
8:38 you know one of
8:41 what feels like six or seven major
8:43 players and and those always Whittle
8:45 down to three
8:47 um I think open AI because they've got
8:48 such a head start and their Tech is so
8:50 good and I and I actually believe Sam
8:52 Altman is a really good CEO um I think
8:55 they're going to be there you know
8:56 Microsoft is gonna is gonna back them so
8:58 let's let's roll those two together so
9:00 the Microsoft open AI thing
9:02 that lives as one competitor Google's
9:04 certainly going to be a competitor
9:06 um AWS because they've got Amazon
9:09 because they've got AWS and they're
9:11 going to roll all these multiple models
9:12 into it it's going to be a player you've
9:14 got hugging Face is Going to Be a Player
9:17 you've got stability is going to be a
9:19 player you've got Apple who hasn't
9:21 really announced anything yet and then
9:22 you've got x dot AI so that's I think
9:24 seven that I just went through right
9:26 there so
9:27 um going to be interesting to see but I
9:29 wouldn't underestimate musk I mean the
9:31 man's a flipping machine he might be a
9:34 machine maybe he's a robot maybe Elon
9:37 Musk is the ultimate AI
9:40 um let's see
9:42 I like GPT hustles I don't know what
9:44 that is
9:46 but I assume that's a oh GPT hustles
9:49 that's probably for the for the person
9:50 that was starting a business yeah
9:52 there's I'm sure so if you if you know
9:55 um McKenzie Bose who's got a channel
9:57 here on Tick Tock um he's got that
10:00 company
10:01 um GPT boss where you hire virtual
10:03 employees that are all chat Bots that he
10:05 sort of pre-pre-prompted to be really
10:08 good at their particular tasks so if you
10:10 want to start something you could use
10:11 that as well
10:13 uh we're in a system within a man
10:15 systems meta is a system with a demand
10:17 system further from the source I don't
10:19 know what that means but okay
10:23 um copyright issues yes copyright issues
10:25 are going to be a [ __ ] disaster
10:29 um let's see where are we we got a lot
10:30 of questions tonight hey everybody hope
10:32 you're doing well copyright issues
10:34 effects on data sets I have already
10:36 noticed this myself well yeah so so
10:40 um
10:41 a lot of the early models were just
10:43 trained you know you might call it
10:45 irresponsibly but I would say they were
10:47 just trained in in kind of a scrappy way
10:50 they just got them out there and I think
10:51 it's one of the reason
10:52 um stability open sourced all of their
10:55 image models because I have a feeling
10:56 that they had a sneaky suspicion they
10:58 they knew they were going to get sued
11:00 and and even if they get shut down
11:02 because of these lawsuits their models
11:04 are now open sourced I think they did
11:05 that for a reason and then you look at a
11:07 company like Adobe and adobe's Firefly
11:10 they trained all their models on open
11:12 source uh photography or or images and
11:17 um or images they had the rights to
11:19 because of adobe stock right so the
11:22 whole thing that adobe is putting
11:23 together is they're putting together a
11:25 safer commercial training set I talked
11:27 to a buddy of mine that works at Delight
11:29 digital uh today and and you know
11:33 they're not going to use image
11:36 generation models that are going to
11:38 potentially get them or their clients in
11:40 trouble they're just not going to do it
11:41 but Adobe comes along and they make it
11:43 safe to do generative AI image
11:46 generation and copy generation and
11:48 whatever you know film editing uh video
11:51 generation big corporations are going to
11:54 use it so I think I think we'll start to
11:55 see lots and lots of models there will
11:57 be wild west open source models that
12:00 have all the stolen stuff there will be
12:02 you know open Ai and stability will cut
12:05 deals with the big stock houses
12:06 ultimately
12:08 um and and I think all the attribution
12:10 stuff is going to be dealt with and all
12:12 the compensation stuff is going to be
12:13 dealt with but it's going to take years
12:15 so yeah crazy crazy stuff
12:19 um text to video Auto GPA Auto GPT and
12:23 AGI yeah those those are some of the
12:26 biggies
12:27 um the text to video is it's I mean it's
12:32 remarkable if you saw the Bud Light
12:33 commercial and the Pizza commercial that
12:35 were done with the text to video stuff I
12:37 mean it's limited to three second Clips
12:39 right now which is why all those
12:40 commercials have the funny clips and
12:42 then if you look at the jaws of people
12:44 as they're chewing the pizza uh it's
12:47 disturbing right but if you look at
12:50 where image generation was a year ago
12:52 and where it is today
12:54 that's what's going to happen with video
12:56 generation so you'll start to see 10
12:59 second clips and then 20 second clips
13:00 and then you know continuous scenes and
13:03 and you'll start to see improvements in
13:05 continuity of Jaws and things like that
13:07 so that's going to get way better Auto
13:09 GPT if you don't know that stuff is the
13:11 the autonomous agents so this is uh
13:15 a series of tools strung together that
13:19 you give it a goal
13:20 and you say for example I don't know go
13:23 find me the revenue of my top 10
13:25 competitors and find me all of their
13:28 taglines and come up with a marketing
13:30 plan to you know go after them in the
13:33 marketplace or something like that you
13:34 give it you basically just give it a go
13:35 it then assigns itself it uses chat EPT
13:39 to write itself tasks and then it goes
13:41 and does those tasks it says I need to
13:43 go search on Google for this and I need
13:46 to go to Wolfram Alpha to do that math
13:48 and I need to
13:49 give it a open AI to you know come up
13:53 with the words whatever it is and and
13:55 they're autonomous agents they just go
13:56 now the thing about Auto GPT it got to a
14:00 hundred thousand stars on GitHub in a
14:02 remarkably shorter amount of time three
14:04 weeks or something like that
14:06 it's only been around for five weeks so
14:08 this is brand brand new technology and
14:10 it doesn't work all that well it crashes
14:12 most of the time
14:14 um and then AGI it seems like these
14:17 autonomous agents the ability for large
14:20 language models to use tools
14:23 um and then to to take action on behalf
14:26 of you
14:27 um starts to take us in a direction
14:29 toward AGI and if you read the Microsoft
14:33 paper there's a Microsoft paper out uh
14:35 analyzing
14:37 um the results of gpt4 queries and that
14:40 talks about it is showing signs early
14:43 signs of AGI the problem with AGI I said
14:46 this last night is that there's not a
14:49 very clear definition of it nobody
14:51 really knows what it means it basically
14:53 means they get way smarter than we are I
14:55 would argue that these things are
14:56 already pretty much smarter than we are
14:58 even though they hallucinate a lot and
15:00 are not all that accurate they're pretty
15:03 remarkable biggest difference from free
15:05 and paid version of chat GPT okay so if
15:07 you pay the 20 bucks
15:10 um I think you get on faster servers so
15:11 I think it's faster the the 3.5 uh EBT
15:15 3.5 I'm on plus and it's really really
15:18 fast
15:20 and then
15:21 um you also get access to gpt4
15:25 and if you sign up for their wait lists
15:28 for plugins and things like that I think
15:30 if you're on a paid thing you'll
15:31 probably get preferential treatment but
15:33 I'm on their waitlist I have access to
15:34 some plugins but not the ones I want
15:36 there's some new ones that came out that
15:38 I don't have access to and that's making
15:39 me cranky
15:41 um however
15:43 um poe.com is free there's also an IOS
15:46 app and an Android app for Poe that's
15:49 created by quora and um
15:52 that gives you access to gpt3 3.5
15:55 gpt4 and anthropics Claude model that
16:00 Poe you can also do your own chat Bots I
16:03 did some chat Bots
16:04 um I did a bunch of historical figures
16:06 like um if you go to poe.com poe.com I
16:10 am Shakespeare that's a Shakespeare bot
16:12 I did and then I did I am Steve Jobs and
16:15 I did I am Emily Dickinson and I am
16:18 Virginia Woolf there's a bunch of them
16:20 that I did
16:21 um so that's Poe and then also bing.com
16:24 if you knew use the new edge browser
16:26 it's got chat GPT built into it it's
16:30 based on gpt4 so with Bing and with Poe
16:33 you can use gpt4 for free so you don't
16:36 have to do the paid
16:38 version of of chat GPT from openai I'm
16:41 doing it just because they're the ones
16:43 that created the technology and I want
16:45 to have access as soon as possible I use
16:47 chat GPT all the time so yeah
16:50 um
16:51 it blew up and is an environmental
16:53 disaster I don't know what blew up and
16:55 it's an environmental disaster
16:57 we will figure it out I assume I end up
16:59 staring at the screen because I can't
17:01 think of what to type okay that's a
17:02 great great question it's not really a
17:04 question it's a statement but
17:06 here's the thing that made the biggest
17:08 difference for me I totally have the
17:09 same thing I sit in front of a tool that
17:12 can do anything and I'm like what do you
17:14 type and you know you can only type make
17:15 me an Eminem rap so many times it's good
17:18 at that by the way or write me a song so
17:20 many times here here's what I recommend
17:22 I I created a thing
17:24 um a few months back called the 2023
17:26 smart challenge
17:28 and what it is is you pick two projects
17:31 one for you personally
17:33 and one for your business your community
17:36 or your family
17:38 and use chatgpt to do that project so
17:42 the project for you personally might be
17:44 come up with a training program you know
17:48 get yourself in shape and have chat GPT
17:50 be your Fitness coach uh if it's
17:52 something for work
17:53 um I don't know maybe maybe solve a
17:55 problem maybe someone wants to hire a
17:57 writer and and uh you say hey let me
18:00 give it a shot with chat GPT pick a
18:03 specific project and solve the problem
18:04 with chat GPT that's when that's when I
18:09 really discovered the power of it
18:11 because when I was just using it kind of
18:12 like a a fancy Google search engine it
18:15 was just I kept going like what's the
18:17 point what's the point and the minute I
18:19 put it towards solving a problem for
18:21 someone else or a specific thing for
18:24 myself then it became easy then then
18:25 you're just sort of seeing if you can
18:27 get the answers to the problem so that's
18:28 I would strongly recommend doing that
18:32 um what I call chat GPT and AI well it's
18:34 machine learning I think AI is a
18:37 uh how would I Define ai and machine
18:40 learning yeah I mean these are all
18:42 machine learning artificial intelligence
18:43 AGI again the definitions of all that
18:47 stuff is incredibly imprecise right now
18:49 I I don't really think it matters all
18:52 that much what we call it AI is easy to
18:55 say and easy to remember and easy for
18:58 people to
19:00 at least conceptually get their heads
19:02 around right they've heard about AI in
19:04 the movies which is why most people's
19:06 default is the robots are going to kill
19:08 us right because the movies told us that
19:11 the robots are going to kill us
19:12 um I don't think the robots are going to
19:14 kill us I also think that
19:17 individual contributions right now
19:20 people that use these AI tools early we
19:23 are early right now we're very early I
19:25 think are going to have a
19:26 disproportionate positive impact on the
19:29 future direction of AI
19:31 um I think if we sit back and wait for
19:33 it there's a much higher chance that
19:35 that the the evil Bots will do their
19:38 worst or bad people with AI I mean
19:40 that's an interesting thing about AI is
19:43 that the AI isn't
19:45 um
19:47 the stuff
19:48 these tools aren't prompting themselves
19:51 human beings with intention are using
19:53 these tools to do lots and lots of
19:55 things
19:56 um and so when when someone says oh AI
20:00 made that art no an artist who went in
20:03 and figured out what to ask for and did
20:05 it you know a thousand times before they
20:08 came up with something they liked you
20:09 know the the art is in the intention
20:12 very similar to when cameras first came
20:15 out
20:16 um traditional artists said that's not
20:18 art you know the the box is making the
20:20 image people aren't making the image it
20:21 took a lot of years decades for people
20:23 to recognize that composing the shot and
20:27 the lens you choose and the film that
20:29 you use and the um dark room techniques
20:32 to develop the film that you used
20:35 is the intention of the artist right so
20:38 even though technically the camera makes
20:40 the art in a film camera it is the
20:43 photographer that is the intention
20:46 behind it I feel exactly the same way
20:47 about this AI stuff
20:49 Twitter's data will train the best AI
20:52 well I mean that's that's the thing I
20:53 mean Elon has he's he's going to build
20:56 this this AI system and he's got all the
20:58 Twitter data
21:00 um I I don't know if it'll do the best
21:02 AI it will certainly be interesting AI
21:05 Bard Bard is
21:07 um is Google's
21:10 um tool it's not as good as chat CPT in
21:12 my experience
21:13 um I still think gpt4 is by far the best
21:16 thing out there that I've used
21:18 let's see
21:20 um
21:22 no free auto GPT yeah I think Auto GPT
21:24 is free just go to uh go to GitHub and
21:27 it's it's on there as is baby AGI
21:30 there's a bunch of those things now
21:32 um you need you need
21:36 um
21:36 API keys for open AI so you probably
21:39 need a paid open AI account and then you
21:43 need
21:44 um you need an API key for Pinecone
21:46 database for the Lang chain part of Auto
21:48 GPT so so you probably need some
21:51 licenses in there but it's it's not like
21:53 you have to pay for it the the overhead
21:55 with auto GPT and all these other things
21:57 is you you need to be decent enough at
21:58 coding to put them together but again
22:00 you can have chat GPT help you do that
22:02 I'm going to go broke trying to figure
22:04 out what program to use totally I there
22:07 there are so many 10 and 7 and 20 dollar
22:09 monthly subscriptions now I I've kind of
22:12 I've kind of really backed off I think
22:13 there's going to be thousands of tools
22:15 that are based on this stuff so I'm just
22:17 sort of looking at my core models right
22:19 so open AI gpt3 3.5 and 4.
22:24 um
22:25 um I think the anthropic model is really
22:27 interesting Claude um so I'm paying
22:29 attention to that
22:31 um I am paying for image generation
22:32 because mid journey in my opinion is by
22:35 far the best image generation tool and I
22:37 want to use that but you can install
22:39 stable diffusion on a Google collab
22:42 server
22:44 um I think you might need to do 10 bucks
22:46 a month for that I'm but I'm just kind
22:48 of limiting it to image generation and
22:51 word generation right now and I'm not
22:53 straying too far beyond that because
22:55 there's going to be so many pieces of
22:57 crap software out there trying to get
22:58 our money it is it's really um confusing
23:01 right now
23:03 um cheers hello cheers to you too what
23:05 the hell happened to your hair I know
23:06 right Jesus Lord look at this look at
23:08 this I don't know I don't know I don't
23:10 know I guess the glue broke
23:14 it's uh
23:15 it's shiny
23:17 uh
23:20 yo swell let's see wow there's a lot of
23:23 questions tonight thank you this is
23:24 awesome
23:25 uh I'm on okay Jesus I can't keep up I
23:29 can't keep up sorry I'm going back I'm
23:30 trying to catch up to where I was GPT
23:32 Hustlers thank you for a little heart uh
23:35 we're in a system uh yeah that's oh I
23:38 went way back too far
23:40 okay hold on hold please
23:44 um Elon is a massive database to tap
23:46 from Tesla is a database by itself yeah
23:48 all the driving data it's got to be
23:50 absolutely remarkable
23:52 um yeah I mean listen elon's gonna do
23:55 something really interesting with AI
23:56 don't get me wrong I just think it was
23:58 it was a bit of a cynical move to start
24:00 that company a week after he called for
24:02 a six-month delay in in in AI
24:05 development
24:07 um I heard that stable diffusion was
24:09 running out of money doesn't surprise me
24:11 they're in lawsuits right now
24:14 um I think I think they are open
24:16 sourcing their technology because they
24:18 they recognize they might not be long
24:20 for this world as a company just because
24:22 all the lawsuits
24:24 um AI Tech in the hands of bad actor
24:26 Nations yeah um that's going to happen
24:28 and and uh I mean you know the scary
24:32 news is that bad actors are going to do
24:34 you know they've got these incredibly
24:35 powerful tools they're going to do
24:37 things with
24:38 um but the white hats also have access
24:40 to these tools so I think the good and
24:41 bad Wars keep happening
24:44 um and
24:45 um they've just got more powerful tools
24:47 I'm just trying to keep my head below
24:49 All The Sensational nonsense you know if
24:52 someone takes out a nuclear plant or you
24:55 know blow something up
24:57 um then I think you'll see people panic
24:59 but until then I'm just keeping my head
25:01 down trying to do work and find
25:03 interesting things to do beginner work
25:06 resources for new swes I don't know what
25:09 an swe is sweet uh so I don't know what
25:12 that means so if you
25:14 re-ask that
25:16 um and actual literature or book
25:18 recommendations nothing written right
25:20 now like things are changing so fast
25:24 um
25:24 like just follow Twitter you know find
25:27 people on Twitter that you like follow
25:29 Twitter channels that you or Tick Tock
25:31 channels that you like of people that
25:32 are that are talking about this stuff um
25:34 Rachel what's Rachel's last name is it
25:36 brown
25:38 um
25:39 um McKenzie Bose if you're a little more
25:41 technical he talks about his development
25:43 process
25:45 um Paul rateser with the AI marketing
25:47 institute's really good he's really
25:49 smart really up on this stuff and he's
25:51 been at this thing for five years he's
25:52 been talking about this generative AI
25:54 stuff for like five years
25:56 um he's really good so there's nothing
25:59 to read right now there's no experts
26:00 right this stuff's changing so fast Auto
26:02 GPT is five weeks old right so you know
26:05 what the [ __ ] happened to your hair it's
26:07 a mess neural link will turn me into an
26:09 AI and I will do it willingly I think a
26:11 lot of people will
26:13 um yeah yeah Elon talks about like the
26:15 the biggest constraint right now is is
26:17 the interface between you know your
26:19 brain and your fingers and the phone
26:20 interface and if you just have inputs
26:23 directly in and out of your brain it'll
26:25 be a lot faster
26:27 um and and you know prior to AI I didn't
26:29 quite get
26:31 what the implications of that were but
26:33 if you look at some of the some of the
26:36 research that they're doing now where
26:37 they're they're looking at um
26:41 um active MRI brain scans where as
26:45 people are reading blogs they're they're
26:48 um sort of dumping their brain scans
26:50 into machine learning models and then
26:53 you can think of a story and it will
26:55 understand the story that you're
26:56 thinking about that just came out
26:58 yesterday that research so when you have
27:01 a direct brain interface uh it's there's
27:03 going to be some pretty remarkable stuff
27:05 that happens
27:06 um you know Health as well you know
27:09 paralysis fixed and all sorts of crazy
27:11 things
27:13 um already noticed uh homogeneous
27:15 natural
27:17 that stable diffusion has gone yeah so
27:19 so here's the thing about
27:21 when you democratize creative tools
27:24 um
27:26 and everyone has access to the tools
27:28 you're going to see a sameness if you go
27:29 to there's a site called lexica.art
27:32 which is kind of like Google for stable
27:33 diffusion images
27:35 and you can go search for in fact I'll
27:37 go search for it here so you can see it
27:40 um
27:41 let's go to lexica.art
27:45 and it's just a bunch of images and
27:48 what's cool about them is any image that
27:50 you find that you like you can click on
27:52 it and it shows you here's what the what
27:54 the prompt was
27:56 for that image and then you can do you
27:58 can open it in the editor and you can do
28:00 your own version of it so let me log in
28:02 here with my Google with the Google
28:04 machine
28:07 uh hang on
28:11 we'll do this dude we'll go open an
28:13 editor generate
28:15 and so now it's going to generate four
28:17 versions based on that prompt
28:20 um but that prompt is actually really
28:21 simple so so I think what you're seeing
28:23 is oh those are cool
28:26 um
28:27 yeah that's pretty neat
28:31 yeah that's pretty good
28:33 um
28:34 the reason you're seeing the sameness is
28:36 just lack of imagination so so like with
28:39 all creative tools when Photoshop first
28:42 came out everyone thought they were a
28:43 photo editor and then it turned out that
28:45 some people are better at that than
28:46 others we're going to say the exact same
28:48 thing with generative image tools and
28:50 video tools and animation tools where
28:52 people with an actual Creative Vision
28:54 are going to do interesting stuff with
28:56 this because they're actually trying to
28:57 accomplish something they've got a goal
28:59 they're trying to accomplish it they're
29:00 using these tools to do it
29:03 um the sameness is just lack of
29:04 imagination so but we're gonna see an
29:07 absolute tidal wave of content that
29:10 looks interesting at first and then is
29:12 all boring
29:15 um AI robotic humanoids will be
29:18 performing all the jobs in the future
29:19 and then what will the masses do well I
29:22 you know listen we're the the same thing
29:25 happened when when the tractor came out
29:26 and they said oh the tractor is going to
29:28 do all the farming what will the people
29:29 do well they moved to the cities and
29:32 came up with new jobs in the cities
29:35 we're human beings we're not just going
29:37 to sit around doing nothing right I like
29:40 again I I feel like there's this there's
29:43 this instinct to go to this dystopian
29:47 future because that's what Hollywood
29:49 told us it'll be like
29:51 there's a very real possibility that
29:54 what these AI tools do is automate out
29:56 all of the crap that we don't like
29:59 and
30:01 free us to do the stuff we do like it
30:05 may allow us to reconnect as humans it
30:07 may allow us to get back to Nature it
30:10 may allow all sorts of positive impacts
30:13 there's there's a thing that's also
30:15 going to happen where there's absolutely
30:17 going to be disruption in knowledge work
30:19 and creative work and a lot of
30:22 um
30:23 categories of work that we that we
30:26 thought were not susceptible to to all
30:28 of this stuff
30:30 um are going to be very susceptible to
30:32 it uh thanks octavino for the Earth's I
30:35 don't know what they mean I'm kind of
30:36 new to the live thing but thank you for
30:37 giving me those
30:39 um
30:41 so there's going to be a lot of
30:42 disruption right people are going to
30:43 lose jobs but the people that lose jobs
30:47 also have access to all these tools so
30:49 what also is going to happen is people
30:51 that lose jobs they're going to get
30:52 pissed off or they're going to get
30:53 inspired they're going to be like I
30:55 hated that job anyway
30:56 and now they've got access to these
30:58 tools and they're going to be like you
30:59 know what I've always wanted to do I've
31:00 always wanted to do a movie or animation
31:02 or art or write or start a company
31:05 and I think that we will see really
31:08 interesting companies started in the
31:10 next two years from the displaced people
31:12 so I don't think we're going to a future
31:14 where we're all just sitting around you
31:16 know wondering what the hell to do
31:17 because the robots are doing our jobs
31:20 um it's it's a very that's a very
31:22 scarcity mindset and I think we're
31:24 moving into a world of abundance where
31:27 the AI is going to you know sort of
31:30 increase the output of humanity
31:32 dramatically without us having to
31:34 increase our population or the amount of
31:36 work we do
31:38 um it's got all of the negative
31:40 possibilities but I think lots of people
31:42 are talking about that I'm trying to
31:44 focus on the other side
31:47 um 11 Labs really really impressed by
31:49 The Voice synthesis and all the
31:50 naturalness yeah it's it's crazy and I I
31:53 think one of the I don't know if it's 11
31:54 Labs that has this I think it's another
31:56 one I was looking at
31:57 um but you can you can select from like
32:01 20 different emotions like a whisper or
32:03 angry or you know sad or happy or
32:07 laughing
32:08 I think what's going to happen very
32:10 shortly is these voice synthesis tools
32:13 will not only be able to synthesize your
32:15 voice but they'll read the the script
32:17 right they'll read the text of whatever
32:19 they're about to say and they will
32:21 figure out where in there emotionally
32:23 The Voice should be right so it will
32:26 start to modulate
32:27 um like humans do where it needs to get
32:29 quiet and where it needs to get excited
32:31 and animated based on what the content
32:33 of the thing so I think you're going to
32:35 see those synthesized voices get um
32:37 incredibly good very very quickly
32:40 um yeah and I think 11 Labs is killing
32:43 it they're they're
32:44 um it's it's a pretty remarkable set of
32:46 technologies that they've built if
32:48 you've looked at the um
32:50 if you saw that that uh song that was
32:53 released
32:54 um with Drake in the weekend it was an
32:56 AI generated song with synthesized Drake
32:58 in the weekend that got like 600 000
33:00 views on Spotify and first 24 hours it
33:04 was you know it's like a hit song but it
33:06 was generated art I think we're gonna
33:08 see a lot of that stuff so a little
33:10 scary what's coming with that have I
33:11 used perplexity AI I haven't I kind of
33:14 forget what it is now now that you say
33:16 it
33:18 T dot AI what was it again
33:24 [Music]
33:25 um
33:28 oh I think it's just I think it's just a
33:30 fancy front end sitting on top of GPT
33:32 technology open ai's technology is this
33:35 the one where you can upload images and
33:36 things like that
33:38 enhanced for the hardest questions yeah
33:41 gpt4 yeah this is this is so there's
33:43 going to be a lot of tools like this
33:45 that are if you look at Jasper which is
33:47 a copywriting tool or copy.ai which is a
33:50 copywriting tool these are tools that
33:52 that someone has has an idea for how to
33:54 to put a refined front end on on top of
33:58 um
33:59 the the core large language models that
34:02 sit underneath them so this is basically
34:03 just a fancy version of chat GPT I have
34:05 not used it um but it could be really
34:07 good I don't know
34:09 um what if we prompt the bot to prompt
34:11 the bot it's actually a really good
34:12 thing to do you could I would encourage
34:15 you to go do it um go go have the bot
34:18 write its own prompts and and tell it
34:20 you want it to write you know the best
34:22 prompts possible to accomplish
34:25 whatever your whatever your project is
34:27 and it will give you prompts and then
34:29 use those prompts and then if it gives
34:31 you crappy answers telling tell them
34:33 it's crappy this is a big shift in
34:35 mindset with large language models we're
34:38 so used to
34:40 Google being kind of a single
34:42 transaction where we're like I'm
34:44 searching for this and I get back
34:46 results and then I go look for those
34:47 results and if that's not it I search
34:49 for another thing and I get back results
34:51 think of chat GPT interactions more like
34:54 a collaborative conversation with a uh
34:58 like like with a with a really smart
35:01 person that works at your company
35:03 remotely and and just talk back and
35:05 forth with it like that it really
35:06 changes the experience if it gives you
35:09 something crappy tell it tell it tell it
35:11 it's crappy and why
35:13 um what does the future of learning look
35:15 like with AI assisted Dynamics
35:17 um future of learning is
35:20 one of the videos I did on this channel
35:22 was called knowledge on demand I think
35:24 these tools are knowledge on demand so
35:27 so you go to
35:29 University to spend a lot of years
35:30 gaining all the knowledge to understand
35:34 anthropology in the Mesopotamian
35:38 uh era
35:41 um now you just have instant access to
35:43 that knowledge and it's you know it's
35:45 not just information it's knowledge
35:47 right you can have it write you programs
35:49 or write a game about that particular
35:52 bit of knowledge and it will do that
35:55 um so I think self-directed learning is
35:58 is going to be where things go
35:59 I'm I'm really curious to see what Apple
36:02 announces in June they've got their big
36:03 announcement where I think they're
36:04 they're doing their AR goggles um but I
36:07 think they're also going to announce
36:08 some things around AI I must Jesus my
36:11 hair is just I don't know what's going
36:13 on
36:14 um I think they're gonna do some AI
36:17 stuff around agents and things like that
36:18 I think that you're going to be able to
36:21 very very quickly get to Mastery level
36:26 um knowledge in any subject you want
36:28 with these tools
36:31 so the the the impact on
36:34 education is profound right because we
36:37 don't have to
36:38 you know pay money to have people teach
36:40 us the knowledge we just now have access
36:42 to the knowledge
36:44 does that mean that universities and
36:46 education is pointless no it doesn't but
36:48 I think what it what it does is it
36:50 shifts well then what's the priority I
36:52 think the priority is interacting as
36:54 humans
36:56 you know what don't you get about it you
36:58 know what do you want to do let me
36:59 direct you let's let's have more
37:01 interactions so I think that a lot of
37:04 the
37:05 complex logistical part of Education I
37:09 think that all just gets automated out
37:11 and then what's left is what do you want
37:13 to do and who do you want to do it with
37:15 and you could choose to have a professor
37:17 guide you through that process or you
37:19 could choose to do it with a handful of
37:21 friends and start a company right so I I
37:24 think I think education gets really
37:25 interesting but it's going to be
37:27 tumultuous it's going to there's going
37:29 to be so much disruption
37:30 what do I think about Ai and blockchain
37:33 many of the tokens say they're AI tokens
37:36 so that's just [ __ ] so um AI tokens
37:39 are the GPT tokens are just you know
37:42 fragments of words that get sent to open
37:44 Ai and that's how they charge that's
37:46 very different than an nft token
37:50 um I do think that I think a couple of
37:53 things are going to happen I think AI is
37:56 going to accelerate technology to the
37:58 point that it's it's actually going to
38:00 drive it's going to make access to
38:02 blockchain and nft Technology a hell of
38:06 a lot easier and a hell of a lot more
38:07 transparent which it needs to be right
38:09 now you need to be effectively a coder
38:11 to really operate in the nft space I did
38:15 it for about a year I was really into it
38:17 I was part of I still am part of Neo
38:18 Tokyo I was fairly deep in that World
38:23 um
38:23 so I think AI is going to drive adoption
38:26 of that I think ai's is going to drive
38:29 um adoption of things like the metaverse
38:31 when you can just dynamically create a
38:33 world that's the world you want to be in
38:34 and you can enter as your fantasy self
38:37 or your real self things like that I
38:39 think AI is going to drive a lot of that
38:41 where I think blockchain gets really
38:45 interesting with AI stuff is with
38:48 authenticity
38:49 so blockchain verified
38:52 this is a video of a real person right
38:54 now right this isn't an AI I don't think
38:56 you'd make an AI with hair like this
38:59 um so so I think verifying identity
39:02 verifying authenticity and then and then
39:05 tracking provenance of works right so is
39:09 that a work that this artist actually
39:11 put out or not I think there's a huge
39:13 role for
39:15 um for for blockchain and nfts in that
39:17 so I I think I think it's coming but I
39:19 think it's going to be
39:20 three to five years until the complexity
39:23 of that world and all the all the sort
39:25 of nft bro [ __ ] gets washed out
39:28 because it's it's pretty bad
39:30 um GPT 100 fabricates uh information you
39:34 do realize this well it doesn't 100
39:36 fabricate it it's I mean it's generating
39:39 it word by word
39:41 um I I I I I didn't come up with this
39:44 term but I love this term I've heard GPT
39:46 described as mansplaining as a service
39:48 that GPT will confidently answer you
39:51 even if it's wrong so it absolutely does
39:54 that
39:55 um it is not just making stuff up
39:57 without knowledge it's it's it's
39:59 answering in the highest probability it
40:02 knows how based on the prompt that you
40:04 give it
40:06 um and if you're saying it's a hundred
40:08 percent fabricated information that says
40:10 to me that you haven't played with it
40:12 you haven't actually done any work with
40:13 it go do work with it it's it's
40:16 remarkable
40:17 um you know have it rewrite an email
40:19 that you're struggling to rewrite and
40:21 and tell me that it's just making up
40:23 [ __ ]
40:25 um Kyle Flock of Seagulls I know right
40:27 it's part of the brand man
40:29 yeah
40:31 it's crazy
40:32 um do I think it will take a lot of jobs
40:34 in the future yes I think it will also
40:36 generate a lot of jobs in the future
40:38 um
40:41 jobs that we can't imagine right now
40:43 um they're you know to to the to the
40:46 fact that GPT hallucinates a lot
40:49 um I think they're going to be entire
40:51 Industries built around accuracy of
40:54 information validation of information
40:57 um
40:58 you know the the whole idea of of
41:01 curating content refining content
41:03 sifting through content
41:06 um figuring out how to use all these
41:08 tools just there's going to be thousands
41:11 and thousands and thousands of tools
41:13 released every week you know we haven't
41:15 we haven't seen anything yet as as these
41:17 tools get more sophisticated
41:19 there's just going to be an absolute
41:21 Deluge of technology and and so I think
41:25 for the next three or four years there's
41:26 going to be a tremendous amount of work
41:28 just figuring out what the hell is
41:30 possible
41:32 um
41:32 I think
41:34 a lot of companies
41:36 you know if you know especially public
41:39 companies where where it's just about
41:41 shareholder value are going to say hey
41:43 if we can do this with 15 percent less
41:45 staff cut 15 of the staff replace it
41:48 with AI and move on
41:50 um
41:51 I think new companies will be created as
41:53 a result of that so I think it'll
41:54 increase competition in the marketplace
41:56 which will generate jobs
41:59 um but yeah I think that there's going
42:01 to be fairly significant disruption
42:03 fairly significant disruption in every
42:06 knowledge work in every creative uh
42:09 thing the The Writer's Guild in in
42:11 Hollywood just went on strike
42:14 um
42:14 and I I know a big part of their
42:17 sticking point was they didn't they they
42:19 wanted
42:20 Studios and things like that to commit
42:22 to never using chat GPT or uh some I
42:26 don't I don't quite know enough about it
42:27 to know
42:29 um what they did but but they're
42:30 basically trying to prevent the
42:31 technology that's not going to work
42:34 um but there's going to be disruption
42:35 there's gonna be a lot of it so so yeah
42:37 I think it's going to take jobs in the
42:38 future but I think it will
42:40 um generate jobs
42:42 I would say if you're if you're
42:43 concerned about your job lean into the
42:46 part of AI that scares you the most is
42:48 probably the part of AI you should be
42:50 learning the quickest and most
42:51 aggressively get curious with it start
42:54 exploring it even if it feels completely
42:56 foreign to you jump in What I can
42:59 promise you it gets a hell of a lot less
43:00 scary when you're in it using it than
43:03 when you're sitting on the outside just
43:05 watching it because it really does seem
43:06 like this mythical weird thing from the
43:09 outside
43:10 um it's pretty magical once you're using
43:12 it dude hair day I know I know people I
43:17 know
43:18 um I think when Apple finally weighs in
43:20 on AI that mind might be blown again I
43:23 agree they're sneaky listen I I miss
43:27 Steve Jobs you know Tim Cook bless his
43:30 heart is a CFO he's not an innovator
43:32 they you know they got rid of Johnny
43:34 Ives I'm an apple Fanboy from way way
43:36 back
43:38 um I think the quality of their product
43:40 has gone down dramatically they're
43:43 they're just you know everything's
43:44 iterative you know same same [ __ ]
43:48 um they haven't really innovated I think
43:50 their goggles are gonna probably be good
43:52 but I think the AR VR thing is a little
43:54 tired right now because there's there's
43:56 not really enough content there to be
43:57 interesting but
43:59 they are Apple they do have a lot of
44:02 talented people there you know I I would
44:04 say
44:05 um if anyone has a chance of
44:10 cracking the nut of of making it easier
44:15 to use AI than not use AI it's apple and
44:18 and you know listen we already use AI in
44:21 everything right it's in Siri it's in
44:23 our map programs it's in your spell
44:25 checker it's in your grammar checker
44:27 like we've been using AI for years
44:29 my my gut of what apple is gonna
44:34 have ai Tools around our personal agents
44:38 where you'll have a personal agent that
44:40 will represent you and it will have
44:42 access to all of your
44:44 um all of your data right Apple's got
44:47 this secure
44:48 um
44:50 fenced-in Garden of data that's your
44:52 data and and they're pretty known for
44:54 their security around that and and
44:57 um
44:58 and so I think that they could they
45:01 could create some pretty remarkable
45:02 technology where you have this agent
45:04 where you just tell it to go do stuff
45:06 and it'll just launch apps and do stuff
45:08 and log into your websites and do your
45:10 thing and bring it back
45:11 and you know they were the first ones
45:14 that made it easier to buy music than
45:16 steal it then you know rip it and steal
45:18 it from from CDs
45:21 um and and they completely transformed
45:22 the music market so they've they've
45:24 absolutely got the chops and the Legacy
45:28 um and the data and the money
45:32 to to go in big on AI right they've they
45:35 absolutely do so I think Apple could do
45:37 some some really interesting interesting
45:39 stuff I I'm I'm very excited about their
45:42 June
45:43 developer conference announcement
45:45 I hope there's a one more thing moment
45:48 if you know Apple the one more thing was
45:50 something Steve Jobs did all the all the
45:52 time and and Tim Cook just hasn't
45:54 figured that out looking for a
45:56 non-boring stream sorry this one's
45:58 boring what in the hell is he talking
45:59 about AI boring I would leave
46:04 um everyone can do anything in a AI why
46:07 do you need
46:08 resources well
46:13 I mean you use resources to get up to
46:16 speed more quickly not everyone's kind
46:18 of got a hacker mentality so if if if
46:20 you just want to figure out how to get
46:22 make some pretty images
46:26 that teaches you how to do prompting
46:28 hang on with him is dying
46:31 my phone is dying my hair is special
46:36 and someone's here that doesn't know why
46:38 they're here
46:40 um
46:41 AI is important having an AI president
46:43 is better than Obama and Biden all right
46:46 yeah great and and yeah I'm sure Trump
46:49 is better than all of it right whatever
46:52 I do not care about politics right now
46:56 um speaking of politics like did you
46:58 watch the the Twitter hearings like
46:59 those guys don't even understand how
47:01 [ __ ] Wi-Fi works how are they gonna
47:03 regulate AI I mean that's the thing that
47:06 scares me is we need some technical
47:09 competence in in politics quite frankly
47:12 not this divisive [ __ ]
47:18 I'm a small business owner labor is
47:20 expensive and unstable
47:22 that makes AI very valuable to me yeah
47:24 Josh officially Josh
47:26 um if you're still on
47:28 um go check out GPT boss if you haven't
47:31 um mckinsey's put together a software
47:33 app that that puts a bunch of wrappers
47:35 on top of chat GPT where you you have a
47:37 financial specialist and a marketing
47:39 specialist and a
47:41 you've got all these different employees
47:42 you can hire and they'll help you run
47:44 your business that's it that's his whole
47:46 point is that with with
47:48 um with these AI employees you can you
47:51 can really run your business
47:52 um and and it's it's a very interesting
47:55 idea and he's a nice guy and doing good
47:58 work he's also very generous with
48:00 sharing how he does what he does and
48:02 what he's doing
48:03 the new neural link
48:05 BMI again Professor the new neural link
48:09 BMI
48:10 I don't know what BMI stands for body
48:13 mass index well
48:15 um
48:16 I I don't know what that means
48:20 um thank you keep doing what you're
48:21 doing I appreciate that oh the new BMI
48:23 neural link research again thank you
48:25 Meister explain oh so okay so neural
48:28 link
48:29 um
48:32 Elon Musk because because he hasn't
48:34 started enough businesses
48:36 um started a thing called neuralink
48:37 where they drill a hole in your brain
48:40 and they've they've got these bundles of
48:42 I think it's 60 electrodes it might be
48:45 more than it might be 120.
48:47 um
48:49 but it's it's truly remarkable what
48:52 they're doing they take these really
48:54 skinny electrodes they're they're
48:56 whatever the a tenth of a human hair or
48:58 whatever it is some some remarkably
49:00 small amount and they've developed the
49:02 whole robot and what they do do is they
49:04 they
49:05 um they drill a small hole like the size
49:07 of a pencil eraser in your head and then
49:10 this robot inserts each one of these
49:12 little needles
49:13 um these electrodes
49:15 into your brain tissue while avoiding
49:18 the blood vessels so the robot actually
49:20 can see the blood vessels and it inserts
49:22 these things into your brain without
49:23 hitting the blood vessels
49:25 and then I think you put like three or
49:28 four of those bundles you know at
49:30 different parts of your brain and it
49:32 becomes a brain computer interface so so
49:35 literally you can control your iPhone
49:37 with brain signals so so that's what the
49:40 neural link
49:41 um research is and when you start to
49:44 combine that with some of these AI
49:47 um
49:47 AI processing power your ability to sort
49:51 of instantly get signal from your brain
49:54 into one of these machines
49:56 um is is going to do some remarkable
49:58 things and and they're going to be able
50:00 to do things like Route Around
50:02 paralysis and and
50:05 um just all sorts of crazy stuff so um
50:08 it's worth you know go go look up um
50:11 neural link the company and watch the
50:14 videos on them it's truly remarkable
50:16 Oh Hey Ron how are you good to see you
50:18 thank you thank you for the kind words I
50:21 appreciate that GPT boss is he here on
50:23 Tick Tock yeah at GPT bus it's McKenzie
50:26 Bose he's a really nice guy Canadian
50:28 dude I think he's up in Vancouver or
50:29 something like that
50:31 um officially Josh yes uh 52
50:35 and brand new to chat EBT I'm 57 buddy
50:38 and I was brand new to chat GPT in
50:39 November that's when it came out so
50:41 you're not behind and you know I got
50:43 five years on you I'm I'm ancient and
50:46 look at that hair something's really
50:48 wrong
50:49 AI was given a language never seen went
50:52 on the internet and taught itself fluent
50:54 in three hours yeah it's
50:58 gpt's Mastery of language is remarkable
51:02 I on one of my tick tocks I someone
51:04 asked a question and I said you know go
51:07 tell it to invent a language and it this
51:10 guy came back and he said I went and
51:12 told it to invent the language and it
51:13 did
51:15 um
51:16 you can do translations I had GPT
51:19 translate from English to
51:22 Dutch
51:23 to
51:26 Spanish to Japanese
51:30 to something else and then back to
51:32 English and I can still read it it's
51:34 remarkable there's an interesting thing
51:36 I said this last night but it's it's
51:38 worth repeating
51:41 so when they trained
51:43 um gpt3 they trained it essentially on
51:46 all of the internet they went out and
51:47 crawled all of the public internet they
51:49 could get to all you know wherever their
51:51 Bots could get that wasn't behind
51:53 paywalls and things like that
51:55 and so they trained it on all of
51:56 Wikipedia and all the blogs and all of
51:58 the books and whatever whatever's out
52:00 there right and and it did pretty good
52:03 it was doing pretty good and then like
52:05 the next year they trained it on all the
52:07 code they said go learn to code trying
52:09 to they trained it on all the code I
52:11 guess they went to GitHub and you know
52:13 just dumped it dumped all the GitHub in
52:16 there and trained it on all the code and
52:18 an interesting thing happened where it
52:20 got really good at code and once it got
52:22 really good at code it actually got
52:24 better at language
52:26 and I my hypothesis without any
52:29 scientific fact or knowledge
52:32 is that with code you've got implicit
52:36 logic built into it right you you have
52:38 you know orders of operation and you
52:40 have logic and it you know it's it's
52:42 sort of self-referential well languages
52:45 like that too right so it actually makes
52:48 perfect sense to me that as it got
52:49 better at coding it could take the sort
52:51 of lessons it learned here and apply
52:53 those to language and so apparently it
52:56 was teaching it coding that is the thing
52:58 that really broke
53:00 um broke things free for for chat GPT
53:03 for gbt3 that made it really really good
53:05 which I find absolutely fascinating
53:09 um
53:12 what's this one they are all but certain
53:17 oh yeah um yeah politicians are gonna
53:19 absolutely [ __ ] this up they're gonna
53:21 absolutely [ __ ] it up
53:23 there's enough of it so so here's a good
53:25 thing
53:27 um
53:30 because of the popularity of chat GPT
53:33 it's forced everyone out in the open
53:35 it's forced Google to put their
53:36 technology out there it's forced meta to
53:38 put their technology out there Amazon
53:40 has jumped into the ring apple is
53:42 definitely going to jump into the ring
53:44 all these startups are putting their
53:45 technology out there stability is open
53:47 sourcing things now there's a bunch of
53:49 other companies open sourcing things so
53:53 the risk of government really shutting
53:56 down or locking this thing down I think
53:58 I think we're past it because there are
54:01 just too many players in the marketplace
54:02 right now
54:04 um and um and so so I don't I don't I
54:08 don't think they can actually truly [ __ ]
54:10 it up I think we
54:11 as irresponsible human beings can [ __ ]
54:14 it up code is just another language I
54:16 agree
54:17 um
54:19 yeah code is just is just more formal
54:21 language totally agree with that
54:25 um should I drop out of my computer
54:28 science major about to graduate in two
54:30 weeks um
54:33 here's the deal I would say this
54:36 um I would not want to be graduating
54:38 right now I certainly wouldn't want to
54:39 be entering computer science right now
54:43 um
54:45 I did I did a video on my Tick Tock
54:47 channel here
54:48 um called are you a virtuous or are you
54:50 a conductor I would say that the more
54:53 specialized you are in your computer
54:55 science degree
54:58 the the more you're probably at risk
55:01 um
55:02 but
55:03 so so it depends on the kind of job you
55:05 want but what I would say is what you
55:07 want to get as good at as possible as
55:09 quickly as possible is take your
55:14 skills of logical thinking and
55:16 implementation there's there's going to
55:18 absolutely be a need for computer
55:20 scientists and for programmers and
55:22 things like that because
55:24 all of the automation that we're talking
55:25 about isn't going to happen overnight
55:27 and in fact it's going to make it a mess
55:29 for a long long time so I think there's
55:30 gonna be I think there's gonna be jobs
55:31 out there but what's going to get
55:33 automated out is kind of the low level
55:35 stuff that that typical computer science
55:39 graduates you know you come into a
55:41 company you kind of do the low level
55:42 repetitive programming [ __ ] I think all
55:45 of that stuff's gonna get automated out
55:47 pretty quickly
55:49 um but people who can take those
55:52 programming skills and be able to say
55:54 Okay I want to you know send some
55:56 prompts out to open AI to get back an
55:58 image and I want to do something with
55:59 that image and I want to put I want to
56:01 act like a conductor where I'm I'm I'm
56:03 conducting all of these resources so I
56:06 would say take your logical thinking
56:07 skills and broaden your view as much as
56:10 possible so that you can see
56:13 um
56:14 you can get sort of as high level as
56:16 possible and see the landscape of what's
56:19 possible and then apply your skills to
56:21 sort of piece parting the tools together
56:23 because I think the next three years is
56:25 going to be about piece parting the
56:26 tools together but the idea of sort of
56:28 going in and for a year you do this kind
56:31 of programming and then you elevate to
56:32 this kind of programming I think that
56:34 stuff's just going to get obliterated so
56:36 I don't I don't I don't know if it makes
56:39 you feel better
56:40 I think the skills that you learned are
56:42 still applicable but probably how they
56:45 told you you're going to work in the
56:47 marketplace is going to be different
56:51 um the fact that wait sorry
56:55 the retired Godfather of AI thought it
56:57 would take 30 years to get here five
57:00 years ago yeah I know so so if you don't
57:02 know that um it's not Jeffrey what the
57:04 hell's his name
57:06 um
57:08 um hang on
57:10 god father
57:14 of AI I keep forgetting his name because
57:17 I'm a loser
57:19 um Jeffrey oh it is Jeffrey Jeffrey
57:21 Hinton
57:22 Jeffrey Hinton um was AI scientist at
57:25 Google he invented a lot of the core
57:29 technology that's why we're using the
57:31 stuff that's so good right now he just
57:32 quit Google so that he can warn the
57:34 world about
57:36 um how
57:39 um terrifying this technology can be
57:43 um
57:44 and yeah things things are progressing
57:47 way faster than I think anyone realized
57:50 I think the Microsoft paper on gpt4
57:53 showing signs of AGI it's not AGI but
57:56 it's showing some signs of it
57:58 um
57:59 Ray Kurzweil said that he feels we'll
58:02 get to the singularity in 2029
58:05 um uh AI scientists in general have now
58:08 lowered their estimate to 2030. so I I
58:12 think we're on path for that
58:15 um yeah it's wild it's it
58:18 it is hard to explain having gone
58:22 through this with the world wide web and
58:24 and there I thought things were moving
58:27 quickly the speed with which these
58:30 Innovations are happening is just it's
58:33 face melting it's face melting like and
58:36 I've only been really paying attention
58:38 to this since December of last year so
58:42 um it's crazy where's the money there's
58:43 going to be money everywhere there's
58:45 because there's so much change
58:49 um there's going to be need for
58:50 Innovation there's going to be there's
58:52 going to be sort of a corporate Panic
58:54 that sets in at some point where all
58:56 these corporations you know the
58:57 c-suite's gonna be like we got to figure
58:59 out AI let's do it now right now they're
59:01 like ai's evil you know it's stealing
59:04 from the artist whatever it is that you
59:06 know that we're in kind of a just a mess
59:08 right now just because of it's it's just
59:10 too raw and new
59:12 um but but probably within six months um
59:15 there's going to be a pretty big kind of
59:17 corporate Panic of people needing to
59:18 figure this out so people are going to
59:21 pay a lot of money to anyone who has a
59:23 clue so if you're not curious about AI
59:25 right now you should be and start
59:27 getting into it start exploring start
59:29 getting curious and you will be in
59:31 demand your skills will be in demand
59:33 logic and problem solving will be
59:35 essential moving forward yeah I agree I
59:37 think the ability to to ask good
59:39 questions strategy curation refinement
59:45 um
59:46 yeah logic figure figuring out what
59:48 needs to be done and then knowing which
59:49 tools to use to get that done
59:51 that's gonna those are going to be
59:52 massive skills
59:56 um
59:59 I have yet to think of any way to use
1:00:01 this then again I left the workforce in
1:00:04 O2
1:00:06 um you know I would say you know think
1:00:08 about your kids or your grandkids or
1:00:11 your community center you know think of
1:00:13 a problem that you can solve for someone
1:00:14 else and start using the tool to do that
1:00:17 it's
1:00:20 figuring out what to do with these tools
1:00:22 in the abstract I find almost impossible
1:00:25 when when you're faced with a tool that
1:00:28 can essentially do anything
1:00:30 what do you do like I just look at it
1:00:33 and I'm like you know write me a poem or
1:00:35 write something like Shakespeare
1:00:36 whatever like I do the parlor tricks for
1:00:38 a while and then I get bored and I don't
1:00:40 know what to do
1:00:41 and um
1:00:43 so so you know if you've got grandkids
1:00:47 have chat GPT right write them a
1:00:50 personalized children's book and then go
1:00:51 learn mid-journey enough or stable
1:00:53 diffusion or Dolly whatever whatever
1:00:56 go learn the image generation things
1:00:58 well enough to illustrate the book and
1:01:00 have it printed on Amazon and get you
1:01:02 know give give your grandkids books like
1:01:04 do do [ __ ] like that like pick a project
1:01:06 and then use these tools to do it and
1:01:08 all of a sudden it will unlock what
1:01:11 these things actually make possible it's
1:01:13 almost impossible in the abstract from
1:01:15 my experience time will collapse
1:01:17 exponentially over the next five years I
1:01:20 I
1:01:21 I think that that feels right to me
1:01:25 um
1:01:26 but but I also know that that
1:01:29 um
1:01:30 we're human beings we'll fill the time
1:01:32 like I I don't think it's like
1:01:35 because these tools can do something a
1:01:37 hundred times faster
1:01:39 I'm not finding myself you know having
1:01:42 90 of my day empty right I'm filling it
1:01:45 with other creative ideas like I'm
1:01:47 living at a higher creative plane
1:01:49 because these tools are doing the
1:01:51 repetitive low-level work where they're
1:01:53 sort of getting me over the creative
1:01:54 hump and they're kind of letting me
1:01:55 operate at a higher level
1:01:58 um so but but I do think I do think the
1:02:02 amount of innovation in a short amount
1:02:04 of time is going to absolutely collapse
1:02:06 Sam Sam Altman from openai talked about
1:02:09 he thinks within a relatively short
1:02:13 um time frame we will have a year in
1:02:16 which there's as much technical
1:02:17 Innovation as the previous 500 right so
1:02:21 talk about time collapse yeah
1:02:23 like imagine that year imagine all of
1:02:26 what we've learned in the past 500 years
1:02:28 all of that happening in a year like
1:02:30 that's that's some pretty remarkable
1:02:32 stuff
1:02:34 um
1:02:35 creativity absolutely this is this is
1:02:38 creative superpowers
1:02:41 um this is Way Beyond the internet in
1:02:42 the 90s at the speed of innovation yeah
1:02:44 exactly like the the
1:02:46 the sense of oh my God the world's going
1:02:50 to change right that's the same like in
1:02:52 94 when I I discovered the web in 94 I
1:02:56 put up an online magazine and three
1:02:58 weeks later it was there was a full page
1:03:01 article about this thing I did out of my
1:03:03 apartment in Brooklyn it was written
1:03:05 about in Paris three weeks later so like
1:03:07 I had this this instant example of holy
1:03:11 crap the world just changed you you put
1:03:13 stuff out on this thing called the
1:03:15 internet and it can reach a global
1:03:18 audience instantly like it just it it
1:03:20 immediately came clear what was going to
1:03:22 happen in the world this feels almost
1:03:24 identical that that these tools are
1:03:26 quite profound but they are moving so
1:03:28 fast and they are so dramatically more
1:03:30 powerful than you know a hyperlink on a
1:03:33 text page which is what the what the web
1:03:35 it's really all it was when it started
1:03:39 um
1:03:39 yeah it's it's hard it's hard to
1:03:41 describe how how how familiar it feels
1:03:45 and how significantly different it is
1:03:47 because it's just it's way more profound
1:03:50 creativity yay
1:03:52 um use it creatively writing art
1:03:54 philosophy yeah use it yeah if you're if
1:03:57 you're retired I mean if you're
1:03:58 interested in movies or books or
1:04:01 literature or or writing or if you've
1:04:04 always wanted to write have it teach you
1:04:06 how to write have it collaborate with
1:04:08 you and create an outline for a book
1:04:11 that you've always wanted to write
1:04:14 um amazing such great advice thank you
1:04:16 thank you Ron
1:04:18 um exploring code development in tandem
1:04:20 with chat GPT is like having your own
1:04:21 Dev team it's totally like having your
1:04:23 own Dev team I would say not just coding
1:04:26 it's like having your own creative
1:04:28 director it's having like having your
1:04:29 own copywriter it's like having your own
1:04:31 tax account it's like having your own
1:04:32 therapist I mean it's insane you kind of
1:04:36 set it up to behave a certain way and
1:04:38 then you can interact with it like that
1:04:39 and you can truly interact with it
1:04:42 um problem thus far has been focusing on
1:04:44 one thing before coming up with 10 other
1:04:45 things I listen I may I've got a
1:04:48 laminated ADHD card I'm part of the club
1:04:51 I've I've started six ventures in the
1:04:56 past four months and they are all
1:04:59 suffering as am I
1:05:01 um because I can't stop starting things
1:05:03 but I also can't stop starting things
1:05:05 because this here's the deal here's what
1:05:07 I learned in in 95 is
1:05:10 this is a singular time in history it
1:05:13 will never be like this again we are so
1:05:15 early we are so early
1:05:17 this stuff is literally like hot off the
1:05:19 presses right now like ai's been around
1:05:21 for what two three decades and and
1:05:24 probably longer if you go back to neural
1:05:26 Nets to the 50s and 60s but
1:05:28 um
1:05:31 chat GPT November 30th 2022 chat GPT is
1:05:35 the seminal moment where the power of
1:05:39 machine learning was put in the hands of
1:05:42 everyday people just like the World Wide
1:05:44 Web put the internet in the hands of
1:05:46 everyday people it's the exact same kind
1:05:48 of handoff
1:05:51 um and and uh yeah it's just I don't we
1:05:56 we should feel so lucky to be a part of
1:05:58 this I do I feel I feel lucky I just
1:06:00 feel lucky I feel lucky that I'm I'm
1:06:02 able to play with these tools at work we
1:06:05 have mini Labs that explore ideas and
1:06:07 products AI lets us fail fast a hundred
1:06:10 times faster exactly like that's the
1:06:12 thing with the with with ideating with
1:06:14 this thing is you can take kind of a
1:06:15 whisper of an idea bring it to life in
1:06:18 10 minutes which would have taken you a
1:06:20 week before right so so so many ideas
1:06:23 that never would have seen the light of
1:06:24 day you can completely flesh out within
1:06:26 minutes and then go yeah no that's not
1:06:28 good but you know what is good come up
1:06:30 with another idea flesh that out come up
1:06:31 with another idea then that'll Inspire
1:06:33 someone else to do it that idea of of a
1:06:36 lab having a lab within a company I
1:06:38 think is a brilliant idea if anyone's
1:06:40 watching and you and you've got a
1:06:42 company and you're trying to figure out
1:06:43 how do I incorporate AI into this find
1:06:46 anyone in the company that's got any
1:06:47 interest in this and give them a
1:06:49 playground say go figure some [ __ ] out
1:06:52 go figure out how to disrupt our company
1:06:54 go figure out how to put us out of
1:06:56 business whatever
1:06:57 um I think that's a actually a really
1:06:59 brilliant play
1:07:01 um how can I train AI to be my personal
1:07:03 assistant literally well go play if you
1:07:06 want to pay for it go to GPT boss he's
1:07:08 got a personal assistant he's one of the
1:07:10 people you can hire
1:07:11 um but you can literally tell GPT what
1:07:13 to be you can say you are a world-class
1:07:16 personal assistant and I want you to
1:07:19 help schedule things for me and you know
1:07:22 keep my life in order and Coach me on
1:07:24 how to be a better boss or whatever it
1:07:26 is and then just start interacting with
1:07:28 it like a personal assistant
1:07:30 as the plug-in architecture for chat GPT
1:07:33 comes or as Apple starts to introduce
1:07:36 agents we will literally have personal
1:07:39 assistance that we can say oh I want to
1:07:43 go to New York next week go book me the
1:07:45 cheapest tickets now I don't want to go
1:07:46 to New York next week go get me refunds
1:07:48 and you know make sure you get 100 of
1:07:52 the refund and just let it go do it so
1:07:54 that kind of stuff is coming
1:07:56 um is AR AI or art going to truly
1:07:59 satisfy our desire for art if unlike
1:08:02 human made art AI art lacks intent I
1:08:05 completely 100 1000 disagree that AI art
1:08:09 lacks intent
1:08:11 it is the intent of the person prompting
1:08:14 the AI that is generating the image it
1:08:17 is the intent of the person generating
1:08:19 the images
1:08:20 to curate out the 10 images they show
1:08:23 you from the Thousand images they threw
1:08:25 away
1:08:26 it is absolutely the intent of the
1:08:30 artist to master the art of prompt
1:08:33 crafting in a way that they can
1:08:36 predictably generate
1:08:38 whatever is in their mind that they want
1:08:40 to get out of it so
1:08:43 um yes I think AI art is truly going to
1:08:46 satisfy our desire for art
1:08:48 from artists if you just have a bunch of
1:08:51 people that are putting in [ __ ]
1:08:54 prompts and getting back [ __ ] images
1:08:56 that's not art it may look like art
1:08:59 looks like today but but you're gonna
1:09:01 see if you look at the um
1:09:04 the the the piece in the in Moma the the
1:09:06 new AI generated this 20 foot tall you
1:09:10 know
1:09:11 um uh
1:09:13 peace that is this AI generated morphing
1:09:17 piece at the Museum of Modern Art in New
1:09:19 York I mean that's art and it's it's got
1:09:22 really interesting Concepts behind it he
1:09:24 basically took digitization of all of
1:09:27 the art that's ever been in the museum
1:09:28 or that's ever been I don't quite know
1:09:31 what it is and and it is generating art
1:09:34 based on all of the art that's come
1:09:36 before it I mean
1:09:37 truly mesmerizing stuff and it's 20 feet
1:09:40 tall right it's just mind-blowing so
1:09:44 um so so yeah I just completely
1:09:46 disagreed that like these machines are
1:09:48 not operating on their own they they're
1:09:51 not curating this content on their own
1:09:54 human beings are doing that
1:09:56 thank you octavino
1:09:58 um
1:10:04 let's see
1:10:11 90s mindset was cool I have instant
1:10:14 Global reach
1:10:16 um but it's like we have a new species
1:10:17 here yeah exactly well I feel like the
1:10:19 intent is still cool like like the 90s
1:10:21 is kind of like well what what's
1:10:23 possible what could we possibly do with
1:10:25 this I feel like that's that still feels
1:10:27 right to me and familiar AI in the hands
1:10:30 of a capitalist system will just turn
1:10:32 into a race to stop hiring skilled labor
1:10:34 yeah I agree but but again I think that
1:10:36 there's you know I I think you know sort
1:10:39 of pure capitalist systems are gonna
1:10:41 certainly the PE firms are gonna say cut
1:10:44 all the costs right that's what PE firms
1:10:46 are all about
1:10:48 but I think there are going to be CEOs
1:10:50 and and c-suites and boards that say you
1:10:53 know we've got two paths here the One
1:10:55 path is cut everything and just use AI
1:10:58 to automate everything
1:10:59 the other one is to say hey we've got
1:11:02 these AI tools and our work our the
1:11:04 quality of our work could actually go up
1:11:06 the the margins our profitability could
1:11:08 go up
1:11:09 um we could take on more clients than
1:11:11 than we otherwise would
1:11:14 um so I agree that there's going to be
1:11:16 sort of a capitalist element to this
1:11:17 that's going to be really ugly I think
1:11:19 the PE stuff is just going to be a [ __ ]
1:11:22 show decimation of the workforce
1:11:25 but also all of those displaced workers
1:11:27 now have access to all these tools as
1:11:29 well so they're going to start companies
1:11:31 they're going to start
1:11:32 um you know personal projects there
1:11:34 there's there's there's something is
1:11:35 going to bubble out of that that is
1:11:37 going to start competing with those
1:11:39 companies that are not using the tools
1:11:41 to make better product and they're going
1:11:43 to get their asses handed to them it
1:11:45 might take five years
1:11:47 um but but I think that that could be
1:11:48 coming
1:11:49 um it makes me feel like I'm constantly
1:11:50 behind the eight ball and everywhere I
1:11:52 turn is just more listen I I have this
1:11:54 Tick Tock Channel I've I do a newsletter
1:11:58 um I'm constantly looking at this stuff
1:12:00 and I I just every single day I'm like
1:12:03 oh my God I can't I can't keep up
1:12:07 um so yeah I totally get it let's see
1:12:10 right it's like being a real magician
1:12:11 working with this Tech it is it you know
1:12:14 Sam Alton said that about this Tech he
1:12:15 said the thing that excites him the most
1:12:17 he said chat GPT is like putting magic
1:12:20 in the hands of people to see what they
1:12:22 do with it
1:12:23 I mean it is it's it's flipping Magic
1:12:29 um
1:12:29 yeah incredibly grateful to be alive
1:12:32 right now this is we are living in
1:12:34 remarkable times modern Human Art is an
1:12:36 is utterly Bonkers AI art is stimulating
1:12:39 yeah I have I have been more creative
1:12:42 creatively alive in the past
1:12:46 four months than I've been probably in
1:12:48 the last 10 years and and you know I've
1:12:51 got all these tools that make all this
1:12:53 art right that make all this art in
1:12:55 theory
1:12:56 why why would I be
1:12:58 um
1:13:00 why would I be creatively alive well
1:13:02 because so so here's the thing I talked
1:13:04 about this last night and this resonated
1:13:05 with someone so I'll share it again
1:13:08 um
1:13:10 my experience with creativity
1:13:12 historically has been I'll have an idea
1:13:14 and it makes my hair do this apparently
1:13:17 I'll have an idea
1:13:19 and then I'm like oh I want to pursue
1:13:21 that idea and then I'm like oh but in
1:13:23 order to pursue that idea I need to use
1:13:24 this piece of software let me go find
1:13:26 that piece of software and then you know
1:13:27 six Google searches later and you know
1:13:30 three spam you know filters later I get
1:13:33 to a piece of software and I download
1:13:35 the software and then I I go to install
1:13:37 the software but I actually have to pay
1:13:39 for the subscription that's a free three
1:13:41 week 45 minutes later I'm still
1:13:43 installing a shitty piece of software
1:13:45 that I then find out is not the tool
1:13:47 that I needed
1:13:48 I don't even remember what the creative
1:13:49 idea was anymore right that's been my
1:13:52 experience historically what happens now
1:13:54 with these AI tools is I have an idea I
1:13:56 go to these tools and bang five minutes
1:13:58 later it like I've brought it to some
1:14:00 level of realization where I can now
1:14:03 look at it and go it's good or it's not
1:14:05 good and I can move on from it or I can
1:14:07 dig in deeper and keep pursuing it
1:14:09 it's allowing me to just live kind of if
1:14:13 let's see if my hand is sort of the
1:14:17 creative process you have an idea up
1:14:19 here and then you kind of need to go all
1:14:20 the way down to this tactical stuff to
1:14:22 do enough down here to sort of work your
1:14:24 way back up to realize if this idea is
1:14:26 any good or not I kind of feel like with
1:14:28 AI you have the idea and it's like these
1:14:31 bottom three fingers like they just
1:14:33 happen like this just happens instantly
1:14:35 and then you kind of get it to this
1:14:37 level and then you do a little bit of
1:14:38 work to refine it and and then you get
1:14:40 kind of back to your idea that happens
1:14:42 within five ten minutes within half an
1:14:44 hour you can fully realize something
1:14:47 that was just a whisper of an idea you
1:14:49 know 30 minutes before
1:14:53 miraculous it is it's magic It's Magic
1:14:55 right but you need to you need to start
1:14:58 playing
1:15:00 um if you just dick around with this
1:15:01 stuff on the surface it just seems like
1:15:03 everything else it seems like everyone
1:15:04 is smoking crack
1:15:07 um I find that my AI Art Is
1:15:09 self-satisfying trial and error result
1:15:11 yeah exactly yeah
1:15:13 um yeah you can you can do really
1:15:15 remarkable stuff even with not being a
1:15:17 good artist Like Me
1:15:18 so the artist is just a curator
1:15:21 um of what are essentially happy
1:15:23 accidents I disagree with that um
1:15:25 the best artist that I've that I've
1:15:29 that I've talked to like I've got the AI
1:15:31 it was called the AI artist Salon but
1:15:33 the AI Salon that we do every two weeks
1:15:35 we have
1:15:36 artists come in and speak to the group
1:15:38 and all of the ones that that do work
1:15:42 that I really respect
1:15:44 um
1:15:45 there are elements of it that are happy
1:15:47 accidents but they have taken like some
1:15:50 of them the one guy that we brought in
1:15:51 you know he would take a month or two
1:15:55 to just kind of refine his prompts and
1:15:58 refine his prompts and then refine how
1:16:00 he was mixing images and and um there's
1:16:03 another guy I know Kenny Friedman makes
1:16:05 these little characters and it took him
1:16:07 you know weeks to sort of get his
1:16:10 formula down for these characters and
1:16:12 now he's got them where he can
1:16:13 predictably generate these little
1:16:15 characters so it's not just happy
1:16:17 accidents I think those happen along the
1:16:19 way I think AI happy accidents
1:16:22 are dramatically better than just a
1:16:25 shitty little happy accident like you
1:16:27 know some watercolor paint dropping on a
1:16:29 piece of paper but it's way more
1:16:32 intentional than than
1:16:35 um you would think for anyone who's
1:16:36 doing good work with it interesting work
1:16:38 with it
1:16:41 so I know I'm a little salty tonight but
1:16:43 I just that that it's kind of a pet
1:16:45 peeve of mine like you know the the
1:16:47 machines are doing the art and we're
1:16:50 just bystanders we're not bystanders
1:16:52 we're using these tools and good people
1:16:54 use the tools well and shitty people use
1:16:57 the tools shitty I missed some of the
1:16:59 info regarding the alternate ways you
1:17:01 use chat GPT Bing Etc repeat
1:17:06 um
1:17:06 I forget what I was talking about but
1:17:08 but the the basic idea here is that um
1:17:12 I think I think this was someone had
1:17:14 asked me you know do you what's the
1:17:17 advantage of paying for chat gbt and I
1:17:19 said you get access to to gpt4 you can
1:17:22 also get on wait lists for plugins and
1:17:24 some of the more advanced things that
1:17:26 are coming
1:17:27 um but just free GPT is is really good
1:17:32 so so I think one of the things I was
1:17:35 saying is you don't need to use a
1:17:37 tremendous amount of tools there are so
1:17:39 many new pieces of software that are 10
1:17:41 bucks a month or seven bucks a month or
1:17:43 20 bucks a month they're just they're
1:17:44 flipping everywhere I would say just
1:17:47 kind of limit your thing find an image
1:17:49 platform that you like like mid journey
1:17:50 is my favorite
1:17:52 um and I pay for that and then find a a
1:17:54 large language model that you like but
1:17:55 but here's the deal Bing if you go to
1:17:58 bing.com and if you download the
1:17:59 Microsoft edge browser it's got
1:18:02 um chat GPT built into it that's gpt4
1:18:04 and it's gpt4 that's connected to the
1:18:07 internet and it's free
1:18:09 um so so if you want to use gpt4 just
1:18:12 use Bing unload Edge
1:18:14 um use Bing
1:18:15 um it's quite good now it's been
1:18:17 neutered a bit because of the New York
1:18:18 Times thing where if you don't know that
1:18:20 story The New York Times Reporter really
1:18:22 pushed the original
1:18:24 um Bing um to its limits and it told uh
1:18:27 this reporter that it loved it and he
1:18:29 should leave his wife for the for the
1:18:32 chat bot
1:18:34 um they kind of neutered it since then
1:18:35 but it's still based on gpt4 and it's
1:18:37 quite good
1:18:38 um also poe.com poe.com
1:18:41 there's another large language model
1:18:43 where you can use two different open AI
1:18:46 um models and you can use anthropic the
1:18:49 clod model from anthropic which is
1:18:51 interesting so I don't know if that
1:18:53 answered your question hopefully it did
1:18:55 Ai and the future of love and dating
1:18:58 um yeah that's going to be an
1:19:00 interesting one I there was I forget
1:19:03 what it was called
1:19:05 there was a thing where where people
1:19:07 would have relationships with these AI
1:19:09 Bots and then they shut the service down
1:19:11 and people were distraught like they
1:19:13 really had relationships with these
1:19:15 things
1:19:16 um I think we're gonna pretty quickly
1:19:18 get to
1:19:20 um
1:19:21 get to a stage where where people are
1:19:23 going to have real relationships with
1:19:25 these bots so I think there's there's
1:19:27 sort of a weird there's sort of a weird
1:19:28 version of this which listen if it makes
1:19:31 people less lonely more power to them
1:19:34 um
1:19:35 but but then you know
1:19:39 there are tools right now that that use
1:19:42 AI to make you seem more Suave than you
1:19:45 are so if you're really awkward it gives
1:19:47 you the things to say
1:19:50 um maybe those things are good maybe
1:19:52 those things are bad maybe it trains
1:19:53 someone who doesn't have social skills
1:19:55 how to be better at that I don't know
1:19:57 um
1:19:59 you know I think I think ultimately
1:20:01 these things
1:20:02 listen if the AI can make me a better
1:20:05 first or second or third date then why
1:20:08 not if it gives me ideas for how to make
1:20:11 a first date less awkward and suck less
1:20:13 more power to it interesting
1:20:16 guy is so old who cares what he says
1:20:18 should have left Google 20 years ago
1:20:20 yeah I mean I mean
1:20:22 but but he did invent this [ __ ] and he
1:20:25 and he did think that it was going to be
1:20:26 30 years until we would see the kind of
1:20:28 results that we're seeing now he's seen
1:20:30 it in five years so
1:20:32 foreign
1:20:33 I mean here's the deal within Google
1:20:35 like like he he made a clarifying
1:20:38 statement after he sort of made his
1:20:39 initial announcement that he did not
1:20:42 leave Google because he thinks Google is
1:20:43 doing anything inherently bad he left
1:20:46 Google because he can't work at Google
1:20:49 and say something
1:20:52 you know
1:20:54 um
1:20:55 negative in any way about AI while
1:20:57 working for a company that's trying to
1:20:59 put this into the world right so I think
1:21:02 he wants some autonomy to be able to be
1:21:06 a responsible voice in a world that is
1:21:09 moving incredibly fast so I don't I
1:21:11 don't fault him for that it'll be
1:21:13 interesting to see what he does with his
1:21:14 platform
1:21:16 I want to collaborate on Biz ideas with
1:21:19 you drop me a DM
1:21:21 um
1:21:23 just beginning to wonder if AI wrote
1:21:25 both Blade Runners I I don't think so I
1:21:28 mean the first one was so old that you
1:21:30 know it was barely PC PCS were barely
1:21:32 functional back then
1:21:35 um
1:21:36 but but you know I mean what's what's
1:21:37 interesting about that comment is I I
1:21:40 think we're we are entering a largely
1:21:43 post sci-fi world where
1:21:48 it's not fiction anymore right the like
1:21:51 how from from 2001 A Space Odyssey
1:21:55 we're kind of starting to interact with
1:21:57 with
1:21:59 Bots that are that are you know if not
1:22:02 on that level pretty damn close and and
1:22:05 you know we're going to start connecting
1:22:07 those to physical Bots that do things
1:22:09 into systems and you know these
1:22:12 autonomous agents that can
1:22:15 um
1:22:15 use your keyboard and mouse where they
1:22:17 can log into websites for you and do
1:22:19 things for you
1:22:20 um we're getting pretty close to this
1:22:22 this era where other than time travel
1:22:26 and you know even flying cars are kind
1:22:29 of getting there
1:22:30 um a lot of the science fiction stuff
1:22:31 isn't science fiction anymore what are
1:22:33 my credentials I am a um
1:22:36 I'm an actor by training I have
1:22:39 um a degree in acting I moved to New
1:22:41 York out of school started and ran a
1:22:42 theater company for four and a half
1:22:43 years I wrote seven screenplays I wrote
1:22:46 a one-man show and then in the mid 90s I
1:22:49 discovered the web and started one of
1:22:51 the first online magazines and I started
1:22:53 one of the first digital agencies
1:22:55 company called agency.com and that grew
1:22:58 really really fast and and got really
1:23:00 big built a lot of the
1:23:02 first websites for the Fortune 500 we
1:23:04 built British Airways first website we
1:23:06 built their ticketing system we built
1:23:08 serious satellite radios website and
1:23:10 their first streaming application their
1:23:13 streaming services didn't exist so we
1:23:15 actually built one
1:23:17 um we built Coca-Cola's first website we
1:23:19 did a bunch of Nike sites so
1:23:21 um did a lot of that and then sold that
1:23:24 to Omnicom in 2002 and in 2005 when
1:23:29 YouTube came out I had an epiphany
1:23:31 around short form video and started a
1:23:34 company and then that led to another
1:23:35 company which is my current company
1:23:37 which is storyvine which is an automated
1:23:39 video storytelling platform
1:23:42 and then the past year has been kind of
1:23:44 all AI all the time and now I'm I did a
1:23:47 video on this where
1:23:49 I had my company here and I had AI over
1:23:51 here and they were very very separate
1:23:53 and I couldn't I couldn't really figure
1:23:55 out how they related to one another it
1:23:56 just felt like all this AI stuff is
1:23:59 going to threaten all the stuff I'm
1:24:00 doing over here and over the past three
1:24:02 months I've slowly started to
1:24:04 incorporate AI into the platform and and
1:24:06 I've now got it to where
1:24:09 um
1:24:09 I've got my core of the business that
1:24:12 I've built for the past decade and I've
1:24:13 got this vision for this this AI
1:24:16 wrapper that is going to make it truly
1:24:19 an omni Channel content engine that I'm
1:24:21 really super excited about and I've been
1:24:23 talking about it with clients and
1:24:24 they're very excited about it so I'm
1:24:26 gonna I'm in a really good place with
1:24:28 the business
1:24:30 um my thoughts on AI and education I
1:24:31 talked about this a little bit earlier
1:24:32 but I think it's a um
1:24:36 I think it's going to be incredibly
1:24:38 disruptive
1:24:42 gpt3 and gpt4 were essentially trained
1:24:45 on all of the internet so like all of
1:24:47 the historical documents all of the
1:24:49 scientific dissertations all of
1:24:51 Wikipedia every blog post ever done you
1:24:54 know up to September 2021.
1:24:57 um all of the knowledge of humanity
1:25:00 that's been sort of captured on the this
1:25:02 this internet thing
1:25:04 um is represented in there and then you
1:25:06 can instantly access it right now it
1:25:08 does hallucinate and it doesn't give you
1:25:10 perfect things but if you want to learn
1:25:11 about something you have instant access
1:25:13 to that and it's not just like a Google
1:25:16 search where you can read an article you
1:25:18 could have it design you a game about a
1:25:22 particular time in history
1:25:25 um and and actually code that game for
1:25:28 you and create the graphics for you
1:25:30 um so so we're living in a world where
1:25:33 every single person that that chooses to
1:25:36 learn these tools has knowledge On
1:25:39 Demand right
1:25:40 so they have what is effectively you
1:25:42 know a college education at their
1:25:44 fingertips on any subject they can
1:25:47 imagine
1:25:49 so so what that says to me is the the
1:25:52 role of Educators is going to have to
1:25:54 shift right right now it's a lot about
1:25:57 helping find all of the information and
1:26:00 taking four years to gather that
1:26:02 information and present it in such a way
1:26:04 that it generates knowledge within
1:26:05 someone
1:26:06 and it and and there's guidance that you
1:26:09 know teaches people how to
1:26:12 take that knowledge and apply it in the
1:26:14 world well well what if if the four
1:26:16 years of of getting the information into
1:26:18 the person's head well like if that can
1:26:20 just happen instantly or within a month
1:26:23 rather than four years
1:26:25 then what's the role of the professor
1:26:27 well then maybe it's like engage with
1:26:29 the students maybe it's like you know
1:26:32 collaborate on ideas maybe it's like
1:26:34 let's generate something new with this
1:26:36 new knowledge maybe let's get five
1:26:38 different degrees instead of one in the
1:26:40 same amount of time so I so I I think
1:26:43 there's a very real possibility that it
1:26:45 transforms education
1:26:47 Back To Human engagement and guidance as
1:26:53 opposed to
1:26:54 educating to standardize tests for lack
1:26:58 of a better term and I know some of the
1:27:00 higher education you know phds and and
1:27:03 Masters and things like that are not
1:27:05 about standardized tests but but it's
1:27:07 it's very much about specializing in a
1:27:10 very thin slice of knowledge well all of
1:27:12 those thin slices of knowledge are just
1:27:14 out there for for anyone to have access
1:27:16 to now so I think it by definition has
1:27:19 to completely transform that world which
1:27:21 has got to be [ __ ] terrifying if I
1:27:23 had a university right now I would be
1:27:25 terrified
1:27:27 um another they are talking about all
1:27:30 the lost jobs but the opportunity but
1:27:33 but yeah but the opportunity to start a
1:27:35 business so I agree
1:27:37 disruption job disruption is coming I
1:27:39 think it's going to be profound I think
1:27:41 it's going to be devastating for a lot
1:27:42 of people and all of those displaced
1:27:45 people have access to the same tools
1:27:47 that are displacing them so those people
1:27:49 are going to start projects they're
1:27:51 going to start companies they're going
1:27:53 to get pissed off at their employer for
1:27:54 how they got fired and they're going to
1:27:56 say I'm going to take them down because
1:27:57 I know how to do it better than they do
1:27:59 and now I have the tools to do it
1:28:01 um so I think we're gonna see
1:28:03 um
1:28:04 I think we're going to see a rash of uh
1:28:08 people losing their their jobs and then
1:28:11 I think we're going to see a rash of
1:28:12 innovation that backfills all that so it
1:28:15 could be very exciting I think it could
1:28:17 be very positive
1:28:18 but it's going to be painful short term
1:28:20 imagine AI goes through criminal cases
1:28:22 and finds wrongly accused people and DNA
1:28:24 like DNA did before yeah I think that's
1:28:26 absolutely going to happen right and and
1:28:29 honestly that just takes you know
1:28:31 there's there's a site out there that's
1:28:33 called do not pay which is I it's I
1:28:35 think their tagline is the world's first
1:28:37 AI lawyer or something like that um but
1:28:40 it helps you like fight parking tickets
1:28:43 and you know all this sort of low-level
1:28:44 law stuff
1:28:46 um that was created by a 19 year old kid
1:28:49 in his mom's basement and and it's now
1:28:52 Making Waves in you know all the law
1:28:55 firms that do that kind of work are like
1:28:57 hey you know what is this site that does
1:29:00 what we do
1:29:01 um so I think I think you know a handful
1:29:04 of individuals could take on a project
1:29:06 like you know Finding wrongly accused
1:29:09 people and and getting them off using AI
1:29:12 I mean I that's very very plausible that
1:29:15 could be really exciting
1:29:17 Future Shock I am Gen X been here LOL
1:29:20 yeah I know exactly Gen X here too gen
1:29:23 xers baby we're bitter we're pissed off
1:29:26 and nobody talks about us and we like it
1:29:28 that way
1:29:30 um the opportunity to start your own
1:29:31 business will more than offset those
1:29:32 lost jobs I totally agree
1:29:34 um yeah I I think the we are entering a
1:29:37 great Renaissance right now both
1:29:39 creatively and Innovation wise that is
1:29:42 just gonna be
1:29:43 mind-blowing and amazing
1:29:46 um
1:29:47 thanks for being so pragmatic with your
1:29:49 perspective thank you it's the only way
1:29:51 I know how
1:29:53 um
1:29:54 uh these are the Visions uh that were
1:29:58 had in the 80s with lisp yeah I I mean
1:30:00 yeah like I said I mean we are we are
1:30:03 getting to sort of step into a post-s
1:30:05 Sci-Fi world where where you know we're
1:30:08 getting to see for real
1:30:10 why are you crying what's wrong
1:30:13 why are you whining you want to go see
1:30:14 Mama
1:30:16 let me get some more oh hang on Dougie
1:30:28 all right I need water I need water
1:30:33 um we've drawn the craftsmanship it's
1:30:35 not all of what gives art its value but
1:30:38 it's a big part of it
1:30:41 we're drawing the craftsmanship
1:30:45 well I think I know what you're saying
1:30:47 here
1:30:51 um
1:30:54 with with these tools you don't need
1:30:58 the level of skill to do a certain
1:31:00 quality of work that you once did if
1:31:03 you're doing woodworking you still need
1:31:04 those skills but something like
1:31:06 illustration especially if you're a
1:31:08 digital artist all of a sudden these
1:31:10 tools um just do that there's there's a
1:31:13 there's a really heartbreaking Reddit
1:31:15 post about a 3D artist in a 10 person
1:31:17 company there's two 3D artists there
1:31:20 and you basically it's basically this
1:31:22 letter of lament talking about I don't
1:31:23 enjoy my job anymore and I'm leaving it
1:31:25 I'm leaving the profession because I
1:31:27 love 3D modeling and now I'm just a
1:31:29 prompter and a curator and so he's
1:31:31 talking about that idea of craftsmanship
1:31:33 he enjoyed the craftsmanship and that's
1:31:35 gone
1:31:36 I think that's going to happen to a lot
1:31:38 of people
1:31:40 um
1:31:41 and and and those some of those people I
1:31:43 feel really bad for if you've been an
1:31:45 illustrator for 30 years and you really
1:31:46 love illustrating the value of that work
1:31:50 um is going to drop dramatically
1:31:53 um if if the output that you produce is
1:31:56 you know the physical form and and
1:31:58 you've still got to market for that
1:32:00 great
1:32:01 um but I think that's going to be few
1:32:02 and far between
1:32:04 um
1:32:05 that said
1:32:06 kind of like kind of like you know
1:32:08 people that lose are losing their jobs
1:32:10 are going to create new companies
1:32:13 um the kinds of craftsmanship that it
1:32:16 requires to do truly Innovative AI art
1:32:18 is going to become a new
1:32:21 art form it's going to be a new kind of
1:32:23 craftsmanship there are already people
1:32:25 that
1:32:27 get stuff out of mid-journey that I
1:32:29 can't understand how they do it and they
1:32:30 do it consistently and it's like it's
1:32:32 like Voodoo to me and I know how the
1:32:34 tools work right so so craftsmanship
1:32:38 um the best part is when my hair does
1:32:39 that I know I I I don't know what's
1:32:42 going on with the hair but thank you
1:32:45 um
1:32:46 see
1:32:48 da
1:32:49 [Music]
1:32:53 the scrolling of the the comments in
1:32:55 this app is just really shitty
1:32:59 someone got them pause I don't know what
1:33:01 that means
1:33:03 it sounds like you're talking to each
1:33:04 other at this point which is nice
1:33:08 [Music]
1:33:08 um
1:33:10 really good at informational stuff
1:33:11 please keep up the good work thank you
1:33:13 Hello Kitty where the hell is
1:33:15 key reading the comments from because it
1:33:18 ain't here I don't know I'm just going
1:33:19 back through the comments and reading
1:33:20 them
1:33:21 I don't know that's not gonna happen
1:33:25 um
1:33:26 uh he got them paused Hello Kitty
1:33:27 exactly yeah I'm not I don't know what's
1:33:29 going on way down at the bottom I'm just
1:33:31 sort of slowly reading and working my
1:33:32 down way down through the comments this
1:33:34 is my third live I don't know how to do
1:33:36 this [ __ ] I'm an old guy so give me a
1:33:39 break I got hair like this you know your
1:33:43 expectations should be very low at this
1:33:45 point I would think
1:33:47 um how should traditional data science
1:33:49 ml engineer pivot their career with the
1:33:52 emerging llms um
1:33:57 yeah that's an interesting one I've got
1:33:58 a good buddy of mine Richard Boyd has
1:34:00 been in AI for like a decade and and
1:34:02 he's built a lot of things on some of
1:34:04 the earlier machine learning models and
1:34:07 and some of the earlier
1:34:08 um
1:34:10 llms gpt2 and things like that and he is
1:34:16 justifiably a little bitter right now
1:34:18 because he's like you know I've been
1:34:19 doing this for a decade and all of a
1:34:20 sudden this chat GPT thing pops out and
1:34:23 people like me are like oh the AI is
1:34:25 going to be big
1:34:27 um
1:34:29 you know I I would say
1:34:32 um
1:34:37 it's a really interesting time it
1:34:39 depends on what you want to do I I would
1:34:41 say big corporations
1:34:44 um are still going to need data
1:34:46 scientists and and machine learning
1:34:49 Specialists and because the I I think
1:34:52 one of the big areas of innovation is
1:34:54 going to be around tapping into private
1:34:56 data sets so getting internal data sets
1:35:00 prepared to be you know to to fine-tune
1:35:03 these large language models
1:35:06 um security privacy like there's there's
1:35:08 a whole tremendous amount of of work
1:35:10 that needs to be done for big
1:35:12 corporations to use these things
1:35:13 effectively and safely
1:35:16 um so if you want to work in that
1:35:17 environment then I would say I would say
1:35:19 you know
1:35:21 start talking to cios and ctOS that have
1:35:24 their [ __ ] together and are not hiding
1:35:25 from AI but are embracing it a lot of
1:35:27 the big companies have been doing AI for
1:35:29 years but you want to find oh nice thank
1:35:31 you tip of the tick tock hat
1:35:34 um
1:35:36 if if you want to do something more
1:35:38 entrepreneurial that like I would almost
1:35:40 say that there's a piece of this that's
1:35:42 kind of forget what you know forget how
1:35:45 how
1:35:47 AI models were trained historically and
1:35:49 just kind of lean into to the the
1:35:51 essentially from Transformer forward
1:35:53 right from 2017 forward
1:35:56 um and then and then if if there's I
1:35:58 don't know what the next Transformer is
1:36:00 I don't know if it's come out yet like
1:36:01 you might know that better than I do so
1:36:04 um so I would say just kind of learn the
1:36:06 way these new tools are working and and
1:36:09 the phase that we're moving into in my
1:36:11 opinion is is not so much can Big
1:36:14 corporations with big data sets use AI
1:36:16 they've been using it for years this is
1:36:18 more like
1:36:19 real people having access to these tools
1:36:22 what are they going to do with it how
1:36:23 are they going to add value it's more
1:36:24 like how do you use the tools rather
1:36:26 than creating the tools so I would say
1:36:28 flip your your mindset to the how are
1:36:32 the tools being used versus how do you
1:36:33 create them that might be a that might
1:36:35 be a pivot
1:36:36 that could work
1:36:38 um new Academia actually sounds good
1:36:40 yeah I know here's the thing like like I
1:36:44 when I play this stuff out if if AI
1:36:47 automates all of the repetitive low
1:36:50 value [ __ ] that we do
1:36:52 and then we're free to do high-level
1:36:55 thinking high level creative and we're
1:36:57 also free to connect with one another
1:36:59 again like there's there's a there's a
1:37:01 vision there's a version of the future
1:37:03 that that
1:37:05 we become better people we become
1:37:07 reconnected we we become re-engaged and
1:37:10 the machines do all the [ __ ] work I
1:37:13 actually think that sounds good for
1:37:14 Academia I think it sounds good for work
1:37:16 life too
1:37:18 um we've we've lived the same life I'm
1:37:20 candy that's awesome
1:37:22 um
1:37:23 all right so he's responding to people
1:37:25 from like 10 minutes ago yes Hello Kitty
1:37:27 sorry about that I am I am way back when
1:37:30 um just got the number two
1:37:32 gifter badge I don't know what that
1:37:34 means are the badges good I don't
1:37:37 [ __ ] know
1:37:39 you can send me badges I don't know if
1:37:41 it's a good thing or a bad thing all
1:37:42 right I predict a kind of digital
1:37:44 gentrification will happen where
1:37:46 websites with human content die out
1:37:51 yeah I the the whole idea of websites is
1:37:55 a really interesting one I mean I
1:37:56 started one of the first digital
1:37:57 agencies I built a lot of the first
1:38:00 websites so I have I have a particular
1:38:03 particular love for websites but
1:38:08 when you have tools that know all the
1:38:11 stuff and then can dynamically generate
1:38:14 anything
1:38:16 do you even need a website now the
1:38:19 answer is yes like when movies came out
1:38:21 you could say technically we don't need
1:38:23 plays anymore but we still have Broadway
1:38:25 so I think we're still going to have
1:38:27 websites but I think websites as the
1:38:29 primary
1:38:31 destination for where you get
1:38:33 information about a company
1:38:35 I think that starts to shift so I've got
1:38:37 a friend Steve who who does zero shoes
1:38:39 he does minimum Minimalist Shoes
1:38:42 and he spends a tremendous amount of
1:38:44 time effort and energy driving traffic
1:38:46 to his website
1:38:49 but now we have these tools where if
1:38:51 I've got a sore back I could start
1:38:53 investigating why I might have a sore
1:38:54 back and and it might lead me down a
1:38:56 path to Minimalist Shoes and what that
1:38:59 concept's all about and what the
1:39:00 theories are and how that might help my
1:39:02 back and then I might say well who are
1:39:05 some companies that make shoes like this
1:39:06 and you know his might be one of the
1:39:08 companies in there and I'm like well I
1:39:10 like this style of shoe does anyone have
1:39:12 those styles of shoes and upcome
1:39:13 pictures of those shoes and it's like
1:39:15 well do they have this one in my size
1:39:17 and it does and then I just buy it right
1:39:19 there and two days later it shows up at
1:39:20 my doorstep
1:39:22 I never went to his website
1:39:24 um he didn't necessarily pay to have any
1:39:26 of that SEO content show up in my
1:39:29 answers that showed up organically in
1:39:31 this interaction I had trying to make my
1:39:33 back hurt less right
1:39:36 um so so
1:39:39 I I think the importance of websites
1:39:42 certainly goes down
1:39:44 um
1:39:46 I would like to think that because
1:39:50 the complexity of websites of building
1:39:53 websites with CSS and and with
1:39:56 responsive design is so complicated
1:39:58 right now I would like to believe that
1:40:00 what actually happens is
1:40:03 the AI takes care of the coding
1:40:06 and people with good ideas can come up
1:40:08 with some actual creative websites I am
1:40:11 so [ __ ] sick sick of scrolling
1:40:15 Parallax websites that are the latest
1:40:17 web press
1:40:19 flipping template
1:40:21 um maybe what we start to see is
1:40:23 actually really exciting websites again
1:40:24 that was one of the really exciting
1:40:26 things about the mid 90s is we were kind
1:40:29 of inventing this [ __ ] as we went along
1:40:30 and we were constantly coming up with
1:40:33 new ideas and New Concepts and nothing
1:40:35 was systematized and because of that the
1:40:37 web was this incredibly creative place
1:40:39 and and some websites were more like art
1:40:41 experiences than e-commerce sites and
1:40:44 now everything's been systematized and
1:40:47 it's all boring as [ __ ] so it would be
1:40:50 nice to have it not be boring again so I
1:40:52 think that's a possibility
1:40:54 1000k likes thank you
1:40:58 um
1:40:59 oh yes Hello Kitty if if you're feeling
1:41:02 I'm not answering your questions I just
1:41:03 haven't gotten to them yet I'm sorry
1:41:06 about that
1:41:08 um kids writing and editing skills will
1:41:10 atrophy and then disappear well
1:41:14 you know their math skills are different
1:41:17 than they used to be because we have
1:41:18 calculators they'll have different tools
1:41:20 I would argue that generating a lot of
1:41:23 content curating it refining it I think
1:41:27 it's just going to be different skills I
1:41:28 I think that you know listen you could
1:41:31 certainly argue that if I'm a shitty
1:41:35 writer GPT could be like training wheels
1:41:38 for me because it'll take my shitty
1:41:39 writing and rewrite it better and that
1:41:41 might actually teach me to be a better
1:41:42 writer so I don't necessarily agree that
1:41:45 their skills will atrophy but I
1:41:47 certainly think they're going to change
1:41:48 and and what's more valuable is going to
1:41:50 change
1:41:51 um thank God I didn't go to law school
1:41:52 yeah I I agree except I think anyone
1:41:56 that went to intellectual property law
1:41:57 school
1:41:59 um their next 20 years is set the IP
1:42:01 lawyers are going to make a fortune in
1:42:04 the next 20 years it's going to be a
1:42:05 nightmare it's hard to say children are
1:42:08 thieves yeah yeah children will figure
1:42:09 it out
1:42:10 I've gone live for 90 minutes jeez don't
1:42:13 forget to take a break I gotta go I
1:42:15 gotta go I'm this this is this is uh
1:42:18 this is ridiculous at this point
1:42:21 um just another problem Gregory since
1:42:22 kids okay uh you're talking with each
1:42:25 other which I think is fine that's
1:42:26 awesome
1:42:27 let me see if I can find a Hello Kitty
1:42:29 in here
1:42:33 at what point don't we need oh do we
1:42:36 need a standard wage for people I didn't
1:42:38 get Andrew Yang's
1:42:40 um um
1:42:40 [Music]
1:42:43 um Universal basic income until I
1:42:46 started digging into this stuff now all
1:42:48 of a sudden I understand it I don't know
1:42:49 if that's a complete answer but I
1:42:51 certainly think
1:42:52 um one of the things Sam Altman talks
1:42:54 about is as companies we were talking
1:42:57 earlier about
1:42:58 um PE firms just sort of milking the
1:43:01 profitability out of companies and and
1:43:02 cutting costs
1:43:05 um if you tax companies that that really
1:43:07 milk the [ __ ] out of these AI
1:43:09 Technologies you could use that to fund
1:43:11 a universal basic income for the
1:43:13 displaced people so I don't I don't know
1:43:15 enough about economics but but I
1:43:18 something's going to have to be dealt
1:43:19 with short term I think there's long
1:43:22 term there's a lot of opportunity here
1:43:25 um
1:43:26 let's see all right um my poor College
1:43:29 art major who is a brilliant artist I
1:43:31 know it's [ __ ] tragic my wife's an
1:43:33 artist
1:43:35 I think I for me it's illustrators like
1:43:37 illustrators who've got just this the
1:43:39 ability for someone to draw something
1:43:42 was always like a miracle to me and now
1:43:44 the fact that I can draw something that
1:43:46 looks good like that with with AI is
1:43:49 like a miracle but it it just it makes
1:43:51 me sad for people
1:43:53 that are really good at that
1:43:56 will open AI roll out plugins for all
1:44:00 plus users yeah I've gotten I've gotten
1:44:03 access to them I'm just a plus user and
1:44:05 I got on the wait list early
1:44:07 um but I don't have some of their latest
1:44:08 ones so I think they're just kind of
1:44:09 slowly rolling it out to people it's I'm
1:44:12 sure it's just kind of a list and as
1:44:14 they roll it out to different levels
1:44:15 it'll get there it'll it'll get there
1:44:17 we're early
1:44:19 um love your videos oh thank you very
1:44:21 much I appreciate that
1:44:23 um
1:44:23 would AI replace human touch
1:44:26 transhumanism AI human marriage laws
1:44:29 changing I I have no idea I mean that
1:44:31 that's a few more years out than I I
1:44:33 have any visibility into but yeah I
1:44:35 think
1:44:36 I think that people are going to
1:44:38 absolutely have relationships with with
1:44:40 Bots I think the Bots are gonna get
1:44:43 remarkably human and and and remarkably
1:44:46 nuanced they're already nuanced like
1:44:48 Chach EBT is is is remarkably nuanced in
1:44:51 a lot of its responses when you talk
1:44:53 about personal stuff
1:44:55 um
1:44:56 I remember we we built a website for the
1:44:59 California almond board back in 1996 I
1:45:03 think
1:45:04 and we made
1:45:06 um just like an email response bot we we
1:45:08 had this Fitness guy I forget what his
1:45:10 name was but he was he was like this
1:45:12 famous Fitness guy and we basically made
1:45:14 like an email response thing where this
1:45:17 guy would email you back Hey Joe you
1:45:19 know
1:45:20 um it's it's been a couple of days since
1:45:22 we've talked you know I hope you're
1:45:24 eating well and doing this and and so it
1:45:26 was just this hard-coded email thing
1:45:28 with you know when when someone signed
1:45:31 up we would send something two days
1:45:32 later and we would kind of respond back
1:45:34 and forth people thought it was the real
1:45:36 guy they had they they had
1:45:38 a very real relationship with this guy
1:45:40 that they thought was going back and
1:45:42 forth with them so I I think I think in
1:45:45 very short order we're going to see you
1:45:47 know people that have relationships with
1:45:49 these Bots
1:45:50 um I don't think it's necessarily a bad
1:45:51 thing like if someone's lonely and this
1:45:53 thing fills a gap then more power to him
1:45:57 do I work within the industry
1:46:00 um yeah I've got an AI salon so we meet
1:46:04 bi-weekly if you go to my bio there's
1:46:06 links to my uh to the stuff I'm doing
1:46:10 um I've got an art project on Instagram
1:46:11 and Tick Tock called Kyle Shannon dreams
1:46:14 I've got a newsletter called everyday AI
1:46:16 I've completely reimagined my company
1:46:19 storyvine as an AI powered platform
1:46:23 moving forward so I speak a fair amount
1:46:26 in the industry so I guess so I'm a cool
1:46:28 dude thank you
1:46:30 thanks for sharing your knowledge you're
1:46:32 welcome I'm using seed prompts is one
1:46:34 key to image generation consistency but
1:46:37 there are tricks yeah exactly there's
1:46:39 you know using using seeds with image
1:46:41 generation and using um image to image
1:46:44 prompting
1:46:45 um uh it's really good one of the
1:46:47 artists we had at the salon doesn't do
1:46:49 prompting anymore he just does image to
1:46:51 image stuff
1:46:52 um so there's definitely arts and ways
1:46:54 to do it our expectations keep Rising
1:46:56 with each broadcast you make what for my
1:46:58 hair yeah
1:47:01 all right
1:47:03 um let's see entry level job to get into
1:47:05 the AI field honestly just start
1:47:08 learning AI we had one of the women that
1:47:11 joined the AI Salon
1:47:12 um
1:47:14 um join the organizers you know group
1:47:16 and put it on her LinkedIn thing and got
1:47:19 a job in AI within three weeks of
1:47:21 joining the salon so we're so early with
1:47:24 this AI stuff
1:47:26 that just get curious with it start
1:47:29 learning chat GPT start learning image
1:47:32 generation just start with those two
1:47:33 start doing projects solving things get
1:47:35 decently confident with it
1:47:37 and then start talking about it talk to
1:47:39 your friends about it
1:47:41 and at some point someone will go I need
1:47:44 to know something about Ai and they'll
1:47:45 Point them your direction because you've
1:47:47 just been rambling on like I do
1:47:49 incessantly so just get curious we're
1:47:52 very early so there's massive amounts of
1:47:54 opportunity if you get in
1:47:57 um
1:47:58 oh
1:47:59 that's nice guys let's support this
1:48:01 broadcast by tapping like continually I
1:48:03 assume that's a good thing but thank you
1:48:05 appreciate that let's build a first AI
1:48:07 cockpit all your AI Tools in One
1:48:09 dashboard yeah that kind of stuff is
1:48:11 like that's the thing the the interface
1:48:14 for all these tools is such [ __ ] right
1:48:16 now it's so horrible right now like
1:48:18 imagine having a cockpit where you've
1:48:21 just got all these tools you've got all
1:48:23 these different agents I've got my
1:48:24 personal agent I've got my work agent
1:48:26 I've got my I don't know my AI uh learn
1:48:30 about AI agent and and and you know they
1:48:33 they sort of run off and do their stuff
1:48:35 they come back and bring me stuff and
1:48:37 I've got you know some sort of again I I
1:48:40 go back to this this idea of I think I
1:48:42 think the people that are going to be
1:48:45 um really masterful with these tools are
1:48:47 the ones that think like a conductor
1:48:48 right you've got the Symphony of tools
1:48:51 and it's your job to kind of you know
1:48:53 spin them up spin them down and and
1:48:55 figure out when to use them I think
1:48:57 that's going to be the the Big Tool
1:48:59 um at what point do we need standard
1:49:02 wage I talked about that
1:49:04 um corporations will pretend humans work
1:49:06 when AI do it and keep the prices High
1:49:09 yeah there's going to be a bunch of
1:49:10 cynical [ __ ] I think ad agencies
1:49:14 I think their time and material
1:49:17 um business model is is on a short plank
1:49:20 right now
1:49:21 um but I think they're going to fight
1:49:22 for that as long as they can because
1:49:24 it's so profitable but I think they're
1:49:26 in trouble
1:49:27 hey I just finished unraveling protein
1:49:30 synthesis that would have been that will
1:49:32 have incredible medical benefits I the
1:49:35 the amount of medical breakthroughs
1:49:37 we're going to see in the next five
1:49:40 years are going to be mind-blowing like
1:49:42 like cure cancer cure genetic disease
1:49:45 that kind of shit's coming it's it's
1:49:47 amazing
1:49:49 um guys each person here thank you
1:49:52 should should do a lot of likes um but
1:49:54 doesn't the AI have to pull that data
1:49:57 from a website well it's not really
1:49:59 pulling data if you look at how this
1:50:01 stuff actually works it's trained on all
1:50:03 the data
1:50:04 but then what it does is it basically
1:50:06 just kind of puts words in these
1:50:08 mathematical semantic clouds of meaning
1:50:12 that the words all kind of know what it
1:50:15 kind of knows what the meaning of all
1:50:17 the words is are in relationship to one
1:50:20 another it's it's truly remarkable
1:50:22 mathematically I don't understand the
1:50:24 math but I understand it conceptually
1:50:27 um
1:50:28 and when you were write a prompt what
1:50:30 it's literally doing is saying based on
1:50:32 all the words I know what's the next
1:50:33 most likely word
1:50:35 to to answer that prompt and then what's
1:50:37 the most
1:50:39 um likely word after that and the one
1:50:41 after that so it's literally writing
1:50:43 word by word based on all the stuff it
1:50:46 knows so it's not really pulling data
1:50:48 from websites that's this idea of AI
1:50:52 copying and pasting other people's work
1:50:53 is just not accurate
1:50:55 what about a corporation
1:50:58 um paying to bias I I assume that means
1:51:02 so so here's the thing about bias you
1:51:04 know everyone's got their own bias
1:51:06 there's not going to be a perfect data
1:51:08 set there's not going to be a perfect
1:51:09 llm that's got zero bias because we all
1:51:11 have bias so you know I might see an llm
1:51:14 that leans in the direction I like and
1:51:16 I'm like oh that one's perfect and then
1:51:17 I go into another llm and in some
1:51:20 direction I don't like it I'm like this
1:51:21 is awful this is really biased
1:51:23 um so I think what we're going to see is
1:51:25 is
1:51:26 you'll get to choose you'll get to there
1:51:29 there will be some level of transparency
1:51:30 about where where these things lean and
1:51:33 that could be a whole business is
1:51:34 figuring out what are the biases of
1:51:36 these llms and making that transparent
1:51:38 to people and let people self-select
1:51:40 into different models so I think we'll
1:51:42 start to see different models where
1:51:43 where you'll be able to choose your own
1:51:45 model and choose your own biases because
1:51:47 we're all biased we've all got our
1:51:49 stupid [ __ ] opinions we're we're
1:51:51 meaning making machines
1:51:54 um so will AI start to use only AI
1:51:57 content to generate AI content and
1:52:00 people stop generating now I don't think
1:52:02 so I think people are because because
1:52:04 you're curating stuff and you're um
1:52:07 refining stuff and you're publishing
1:52:09 stuff there's still a lot of human
1:52:11 activity in it
1:52:13 um so what we choose to throw out versus
1:52:15 what we choose to public publish is
1:52:18 going to train it to to be more
1:52:20 human-like so so I I don't think it's I
1:52:24 don't think it's quite as Bleak as it
1:52:25 might feel right now I know it feels a
1:52:27 little shitty and Bleak but you know
1:52:29 whatever
1:52:31 uh
1:52:33 um oh this thing jumps around I can't
1:52:36 find we need to tax the robot so
1:52:37 actually we need to text the
1:52:38 corporations that profit massively off
1:52:41 the robots
1:52:43 um I really want to know if AI will
1:52:44 start learning from itself instead of
1:52:46 human generated content yeah it will and
1:52:48 it already is
1:52:50 um
1:52:51 will AI Propel Pepe to flip Bitcoin I
1:52:55 think AI is going to drive a lot of
1:52:56 blockchain and nft adoption actually
1:53:01 Hello Kitty she she's still here or Halo
1:53:04 Kitty Hello Kitty hi there I haven't
1:53:07 seen the question yet uh here's a Hello
1:53:08 Kitty question I just really want to
1:53:09 know if AI will start learning from
1:53:11 itself oh that was that was your
1:53:13 question
1:53:14 um
1:53:14 yeah so so
1:53:17 um there's there's a
1:53:20 a company that I'm I'm kind of intrigued
1:53:22 by right now called anthropic which is a
1:53:24 bunch of EX open AI people
1:53:27 um that have created what's called a
1:53:28 constitutional learning model and what
1:53:30 that is is the Constitution is a set of
1:53:32 rules first do no evil you know do good
1:53:36 for Humanity create Prosperity whatever
1:53:39 it might be they come up with the rules
1:53:41 and then what when you prompt it it
1:53:44 answers you it then weighs that answer
1:53:47 against the Constitution and if it fails
1:53:49 it basically says no you know that's a
1:53:52 the a bad answer based on these
1:53:55 constitutional rules give me another one
1:53:56 and so so it's actually kind of
1:53:59 self-referentially learning
1:54:02 um to give answers that are in support
1:54:04 of the Constitution I think that's a
1:54:06 really interesting thing so I think I
1:54:08 think that and then you also see every
1:54:11 time a new paper comes out right now
1:54:13 like three days later you'll see another
1:54:14 paper that incorporates that paper into
1:54:16 other papers and it creates a new
1:54:18 technology so so and and the the auto
1:54:21 GPT tools baby AGI these autonomous
1:54:24 agents are using
1:54:26 um large language models to prompt
1:54:28 themselves and and learn and they've got
1:54:31 memory so so yeah
1:54:33 um these things are start are going to
1:54:36 start to get exponentially smarter
1:54:38 because they're training themselves
1:54:41 um
1:54:43 my sister is a full-time illustrator I
1:54:45 know I'm sorry about that
1:54:47 um she should be learning these tools
1:54:49 though because my it is my deep belief
1:54:52 that people who are good at a specific
1:54:54 task are going to be better at using
1:54:56 these tools than people who were not
1:54:59 artists
1:55:01 the fact that I am not ignoring what's
1:55:03 that say hand art for AI art shows the
1:55:06 dire competition already yeah I know
1:55:08 I've heard that from artists that a lot
1:55:10 of painters right now are kind of just
1:55:11 obsessed with this AI stuff because it's
1:55:14 it's so remarkable it really lets you
1:55:16 find a new voice as an artist
1:55:18 um you should hear me and Alexa argue
1:55:20 yeah I'm sure
1:55:22 um Can AI help in Psychology therapy
1:55:25 yeah so so you can
1:55:27 um because there's safety guard rails on
1:55:30 this I've done this a couple of times um
1:55:32 with some psychological questions I had
1:55:34 you can tell it to act like a certain
1:55:35 like you wanted to act like a young and
1:55:37 psychologist or you wanted to act like a
1:55:40 transcendental meditation coach or
1:55:42 whatever so so you can set up
1:55:45 um how you want Chachi PT to act and
1:55:48 then interact with it in that way it
1:55:50 will give you some warnings like I'm not
1:55:51 a real doctor so you should seek real
1:55:53 medical advice but then it will interact
1:55:55 with you in that in that Persona and
1:55:58 it's it's pretty good it gives very
1:56:00 nuanced answers AI is an entity yeah
1:56:03 it's getting there
1:56:05 um ever seen iRobot I did see iRobot I
1:56:08 don't remember what it was about hyper
1:56:10 Vector databases make more sense
1:56:13 yeah I don't know what a hyper Vector
1:56:16 database is I know what a vector
1:56:17 database is but I don't know what a
1:56:18 hyper one is I was also a screenwriter
1:56:21 and have a great AI script concept yeah
1:56:24 I have a I have a screenplay called
1:56:26 virtue that was about
1:56:28 um
1:56:30 um transplanting
1:56:32 um a chip in the base of people's brains
1:56:35 and you could remote control them and
1:56:37 and feed them someone else's life
1:56:40 experience so you could have the cop go
1:56:42 out and commit the murder but they
1:56:44 actually experienced getting laid so it
1:56:46 was a Manchurian Candidate kind of thing
1:56:48 so yeah there's there's a lot of good
1:56:49 stories out there
1:56:52 um
1:56:53 can't imagine enough high level thinking
1:56:55 jobs to replace those lost the benefits
1:56:58 uh this benefits the few educated I
1:57:01 agree like listen there's going to be
1:57:02 lots of haves and have-nots but the
1:57:05 have-nots do have access to the same
1:57:07 tools and these tools are remarkable so
1:57:10 I I think there's a silver lining there
1:57:12 but people are going to have to be
1:57:15 um
1:57:16 they're gonna have to be ambitious and
1:57:17 curious and dig in it's going to be easy
1:57:20 to say you know I was just displaced and
1:57:22 this is really [ __ ] up and a lot of it
1:57:24 is going to just be [ __ ] up but anyone
1:57:27 who
1:57:28 takes the time to learn this stuff I
1:57:30 think there's a massive amount of
1:57:31 opportunity
1:57:33 uh
1:57:34 um let's see voice control when AI gives
1:57:37 you access to physically
1:57:40 directed sculpting tools imagine the
1:57:43 impact on sculptors well 3D 3D printing
1:57:46 right now I I mean listen there there's
1:57:49 a there's a
1:57:51 there's a good side to the
1:57:54 to being able to generate you know 3D
1:57:57 objects out of this
1:57:58 I think that we're going to see a level
1:58:00 of innovation in art and creativity the
1:58:03 likes of which we've never seen before
1:58:05 there's a the official mid-journey group
1:58:08 on Facebook
1:58:09 um one of the things that I saw that
1:58:11 just blew my mind and I'm like I want
1:58:13 that
1:58:14 someone
1:58:16 um did Star Wars themed KitchenAid
1:58:19 mixers so it's like the first one I saw
1:58:21 was like R2D2's head upside down was the
1:58:24 mixing bowl and then the the rest of the
1:58:26 thing looked like his body and there was
1:58:27 a C-3PO one and they were just [ __ ]
1:58:30 cool and and like they had they had
1:58:32 relief they had you know they were they
1:58:34 were they were just these sculptural
1:58:35 beautiful KitchenAid mixers that were
1:58:37 done in mid-journey I was like I want
1:58:39 that thing so I think I think sculptors
1:58:42 if if they get their heads around these
1:58:44 tools are going to create new forms and
1:58:46 new Expressions that are very much their
1:58:48 voice but there's something entirely new
1:58:50 so I again I
1:58:53 you know I don't think it's US versus
1:58:55 the robots I think it's these are tools
1:58:58 we get to use and if I'm an artist I'm
1:59:01 going to use these tools in a different
1:59:02 way than if I'm you know an accountant
1:59:07 um but but we get to use them but it's
1:59:08 it's a mindset a mindset shift that has
1:59:11 to happen for it not to feel awful
1:59:15 um iRobot literally has the same Three
1:59:17 Laws I just described oh yeah you know
1:59:19 first do no evil
1:59:22 um create Prosperity things like that
1:59:24 yeah
1:59:26 um this reminds me of the change when
1:59:27 PCS were introduced this is exactly the
1:59:29 same thing PC so I have three big
1:59:32 um events in my life the when I was in
1:59:35 seventh grade I walked into a math
1:59:37 classroom and there was a Radio Shack
1:59:39 TRS-80 on every desk
1:59:42 and I remember being just too young to
1:59:44 be part of the PC Revolution but I knew
1:59:46 it was a big deal
1:59:47 and then there was 1994 when I
1:59:49 discovered the web and I'm like oh my
1:59:50 God this is just like the PC Revolution
1:59:53 the world just changed I get to play in
1:59:55 that and that I played in that was fun
1:59:57 and the the next one was November 30th
2:00:00 2022 with chat EPT I think I think it's
2:00:04 as big as that I agree
2:00:06 um I look like a mix of Jay Leno and
2:00:08 Rosie O'Donnell thank you is it the hair
2:00:13 all right Hey listen uh thank you
2:00:15 everyone for your time I gotta run I've
2:00:17 been on here for like two hours and I
2:00:19 got work tomorrow I think I have I have
2:00:21 to get up early uh anyway
2:00:24 um oh it's not the same thing as when
2:00:25 the PC was introduced this is more like
2:00:27 when textiles moving to Asia yeah this
2:00:30 is like the tractor this is like the
2:00:31 printing press this is you can I mean
2:00:34 that's the thing about these major
2:00:35 technological revolutions you know we
2:00:39 will only know in in the hindsight of
2:00:40 History how impactful this was but this
2:00:43 feels like one of the big ones this
2:00:44 feels like writing the printing press
2:00:48 the Industrial Revolution like this is
2:00:50 this is big this is this is augmented
2:00:54 um human intelligence so we're in a
2:00:58 we're in a very different space Oh wait
2:01:00 check out quanta Magazine on Vector
2:01:02 space I'll do that because Vector Space
2:01:04 is really interesting to me all right
2:01:06 everybody thank you very much uh I
2:01:08 appreciate the the participation and the
2:01:10 likes and the little gifts and all the
2:01:12 stuff I got so talk to you
