0:21 See here in this quiet [singing] town
0:24 where the old trees swing
0:28 the pain that goes through the day.
0:36 People greet you with a nine. [singing]
0:40 [music]
0:41 Nothing ever seems to change. [singing]
0:45 Stories still unfold. Each unique and
0:48 strange [music]
0:53 [music]
0:55 Hello.
0:59 Hello.
1:04 [music]
1:15 [music]
1:19 Sorry.
1:23 [music]
1:28 [crying]
1:40 >> [music]
1:45 [music]
1:48 >> Woohoo!
1:51 [music]
1:55 >> [singing]
1:57 [music]
2:04 >> There's been something baby I've been
2:07 trying to say [music]
2:10 on age and it seems I don't know how
2:16 the past and the future now surrounding
2:20 me.
2:23 Surrender to an infantry thief thrill
2:26 can be found. [music]
2:29 Then [singing] there's been a little
2:31 trouble
2:34 since you came to my rescue. [music]
2:41 And if you like all of the rest, I would
2:43 have quit you long ago. But I couldn't
2:47 do that.
2:51 Oh, tell me now. Women in my never went
2:55 to hell.
2:58 [music]
2:58 Make a man crazy, make him cold as hell.
3:02 [music]
3:04 And a woman that you wish me well,
3:09 but it's trying. [singing]
3:11 Still going to have to find
3:14 my own way through. [music]
3:20 Like the mist of morning, my dream
3:23 remains [music]
3:26 hanging in the burnt fields of my
3:28 memories. [music]
3:31 Time disoray
3:38 [music]
3:39 behind me.
3:41 I'm searching solutions on the double
3:44 [music]
3:45 on his two [singing] tongue telephone.
3:51 [music]
3:53 My friend says you ain't got no real
3:54 troubles. [music] Just too many choices
3:58 that you left undone. [singing]
4:02 [music]
4:03 My friend says put an action to
4:05 [singing] those words. to put an action
4:07 to those words.
4:10 [music]
4:15 [music]
4:17 Good evening, good people. What is
4:20 happening? What's going down? Happy
4:22 Wednesday.
4:25 [music]
4:32 [music]
4:38 >> [music]
4:46 [music]
4:53 [music]
4:57 >> Daddy. [music and singing]
5:03 [music]
5:12 >> [music]
5:24 >> She came on him [singing and music] like
5:26 slow moving cold fronts.
5:33 His beard was warmer than [singing] a
5:35 look [music] in her eyes.
5:40 [music]
5:41 And it's uh in uh
5:45 [singing]
5:46 [music]
5:56 Um, let's see. Lots going on tonight or
5:59 or today. The past couple of days, past
6:01 week, shit's happening. [laughter]
6:04 Um, if if if you're sensing an
6:07 acceleration,
6:10 um, [clears throat]
6:11 keep in mind that November 30th was the
6:14 launch of Chat GPT in 2022. So, we're
6:17 coming up on the 3r year anniversary of
6:18 Chat GPT. Um, you've also got just the
6:21 end of the year like a you know the the
6:24 Frontier Labs are just like cranking
6:26 stuff out and and things are
6:28 accelerating so they're trying to get
6:29 stuff done before the end of the year.
6:31 So the next month is probably going to
6:33 be pretty intense.
6:36 [music]
6:42 [music]
6:49 >> [music]
6:55 [music]
7:04 [music]
7:09 [music]
7:17 >> So, what's happening? Corey Sandler,
7:21 there's a Canva keynote tomorrow at
7:22 10:00 a.m. One can sign up to watch
7:25 free. All right, let me guess. I'm going
7:27 to go out on a limb and say that Canva
7:30 is going to announce new AI features.
7:35 Because I'm smart. I'm clever.
7:38 [laughter]
7:41 I'm keeping up with the pulse of things
7:43 in AI.
7:44 [laughter]
7:48 It's going to be big. It's going to
7:49 change publishing. That's what I know.
7:52 [laughter]
7:53 Corey Sam, you think?
7:59 Um,
8:01 so while we wait for people to stream on
8:03 in,
8:06 um,
8:08 I keep mentioning this and I'm going to
8:10 keep mentioning this and I'm going to
8:11 keep mentioning this almost like it's a
8:14 daily thing.
8:16 Um, and that is are you treating AI like
8:19 a daily practice? like a practice like
8:22 like as Brandon said like breathing like
8:24 meditation like
8:28 expanding who you are
8:32 expanding the understanding of what is
8:35 possible with your intention.
8:43 [music]
8:48 I asked that question last night.
8:52 What are you doing? What are you doing?
8:53 And I think I I was poking on the
8:56 generously lead pillar.
9:01 And Claire Jacobs just like out of
9:04 nowhere kind of off-handedly says, "Oh,
9:08 [laughter] I've got one."
9:14 and she said, "I've been taking the poet
9:17 the poems from a 90-year-old Armenian
9:20 poet and putting them into suno and
9:22 turning them into songs and giving them
9:24 back to him." I was like, "Wait, what?
9:28 That's incredible."
9:31 Um, so we learned that last night. So
9:34 the people in this community, I have a
9:36 sneaking suspicion,
9:39 are kind of humble people
9:44 that are probably doing really
9:46 interesting [ __ ] and don't talk about
9:47 it. Um,
9:51 one a day this month. That's amazing. It
9:53 really like like Claire, I gotta tell
9:55 you, it's just, you know, I want to know
9:57 the story. Like we should we should
9:59 actually set up an interview. Um, and
10:03 uh, it's something that we're talking
10:05 about is putting some infrastructure in
10:07 place to be able to capture really cool
10:09 stories like that. But [music] like
10:11 that's one I just want to know the
10:12 story. I want to hear the songs. I want
10:14 to see the poems. I want to see his
10:15 reaction or hear his reaction. Just
10:17 amazing.
10:20 Let's talk about training data and rag
10:22 compare and contrast and put everyone to
10:25 sleep. We We can do that. we can talk
10:28 about
10:30 uh this evening we're going to be
10:32 discussing retrieval augmented
10:35 generation of course uh I mean it's it's
10:37 very similar to uh database retrieval of
10:40 course it's it's more predictive than
10:42 than the chaotic honestly uh large
10:45 language model the p predictive
10:47 generative uh output which is you know
10:50 as we know it's not not predictive it's
10:52 uh chaotic it's a little maddening and
10:56 uh but with retriev Augmented
10:58 generation, you can sort of put your
11:00 your data within the vector store and uh
11:03 uh retrieve uh hence retrieval in the in
11:07 the first letter of of the word the
11:09 acronym rag. [laughter]
11:11 So we're we're going to be diving deep
11:13 into into that tonight. So uh so get
11:17 your schemas ready. [laughter]
11:27 >> [sighs]
11:29 >> AI digital coach. Oh, no. [laughter]
11:34 Kyle, I started promoting products. Uh,
11:36 I'm on a Tik Tok affiliate program.
11:38 Awesome. Good for you. [music]
11:45 Snag the rag. [laughter]
11:50 >> [music]
11:52 >> Um, I spoke to a score group tonight as
11:56 a keynote.
11:58 Gave them your Tik Tok and YouTube
11:59 channel. Hope they visit. Well, great.
12:02 So, I don't know what score is. Is that
12:04 like a a small business thing? Source
12:06 camp.
12:08 Um,
12:10 I'm on the rag, bro. You're funny.
12:13 [laughter]
12:15 Let's make a new song. We can make a new
12:16 song.
12:19 Um,
12:20 yeah, score is a new business thing. So,
12:22 if and in fact, maybe uh let's see.
12:27 Enilam Creative Academy, I don't know if
12:30 you were at Kelly's thing tonight. If
12:32 anyone here is new, welcome. So, the the
12:35 the way this channel works, it like I
12:38 hope I hope Kelly didn't set your
12:40 expectations. I I hope she kept the
12:42 expectations low. It's called the AI
12:44 Learning Lab. I guess I am technically
12:46 your professor. I'm Kyle Shannon. I'm
12:48 the host of this here thing. And as you
12:50 can tell, we've got singing dogs and and
12:53 mediocrely played guitar. Um,
12:56 and we occasionally talk about some AI
12:59 stuff.
13:02 One of the things that has struck me is
13:07 that
13:10 just showing up here every night is a
13:13 daily practice. Um, and I hadn't thought
13:16 about it like that, but it is. And you
13:19 know, not just me showing up, but all of
13:21 you showing up. So, a lot of people like
13:23 Kelly and and Claire Jacobs and producer
13:26 Brandon and Vicki and Danielle, a lot of
13:28 people show up here night after night
13:31 and and for a long time, I couldn't I
13:33 couldn't quite figure it out. I'm like,
13:35 you know, I'm I'm sure you've got like
13:37 Netflix or something, right? And and and
13:39 what struck me is that is that the act
13:43 of just showing up here, just being in
13:46 this conversation,
13:49 it is a practice. It's a daily practice.
13:52 And it's what it what it allows you to
13:54 do when it comes to learning AI
13:57 is
14:02 like even though I was just making fun
14:04 of nerds with the rag thing, the the
14:07 retrieval augmented generation.
14:10 Um, understanding the components of AI
14:13 and what the tools are and how the tools
14:15 work and what they make possible
14:19 is very overwhelming when you first
14:20 start. It's very overwhelming if you've
14:23 been doing it for three years, right?
14:25 It's very overwhelming as the host of
14:26 this channel. You you literally can't
14:29 keep up with it. So, if if you're new
14:32 here and you're and you're trying to
14:34 figure out how do I actually keep up
14:35 with this stuff, um you don't you can't.
14:41 But what you can do is be in the
14:42 conversation. Be in the conversation. Be
14:45 in the conversation.
14:48 And that's what we do here sometimes.
14:52 it'll be really clear what we're doing.
14:54 Sometimes it won't be clear what we're
14:55 doing. A lot of times it'll be just
14:57 madness where I'm just ranting.
15:00 Um
15:02 [clears throat]
15:07 yeah, yeah, I got it. I got it, Brandon.
15:08 I'm getting there. Um
15:13 so welcome if you're new and just hang
15:17 out. Just hang out and
15:20 If you're not neurode divergent, if
15:22 you're neurotypical, [laughter]
15:24 this channel may drive you [ __ ]
15:26 crazy.
15:28 I will occasionally finish finish a
15:30 sentence. [laughter]
15:32 Um, if you're neurospicy,
15:34 it may it may seem a little more
15:36 familiar. Um, but we have some
15:39 neurotypicals in here. Not many, but
15:41 we've got some that survive. Um, but
15:44 just hang out. Just hang out. And what I
15:46 would encourage you to do is if there's
15:48 anything that I talk about or anything
15:49 that I do or whatever and you're like,
15:51 "Oh, I should go try that." Go try it.
15:53 Go try things in real time. If you get
15:55 bored of what I'm saying, which is going
15:57 to happen a lot, just go play. Just go
16:00 play with some AI tool. Try something
16:02 new. Just just go play. Go. Um, and just
16:05 be here and sort of let this drift in
16:07 the background. If you're on the e East
16:08 Coast, a lot of people use this as a way
16:10 to put themselves to sleep.
16:12 So, so anyway, so
16:16 I want to tell you about something
16:17 that's coming up um December 26th and
16:21 27th. So this is a thing that um so for
16:25 the last three years or last two years
16:27 and and this will be the third year Ann
16:29 Murphy and I
16:31 um being the neurospicy people that we
16:34 are we get bored toward the end of
16:36 December when everyone else stops
16:38 working [laughter] and takes a break and
16:42 Murphy and I are like we should probably
16:43 be doing something. No. So, so three
16:46 years ago we did GPT for good where we
16:50 just said anyone that wants to come
16:51 learn how to build GPTs, we're going to
16:53 build custom GPTs for nonprofits. And so
16:56 people came with their favorite
16:57 nonprofit. We built GPTs. It was
16:59 amazing. In 20, it was a 24-hour
17:02 GPTathon.
17:04 And we did um 150 GPTs for nonprofits in
17:08 24 hours. Really remarkable. It was just
17:10 amazing. And then last year, um, about
17:13 two weeks before New Year's, um, Ann
17:18 reached out to me and said, "Are we
17:19 going to do a thing this year?"
17:21 [laughter]
17:22 And I'm like, "Sure."
17:25 And so we put together in two weeks, we
17:27 put together what what was called AI
17:30 Festivus, AI for the rest of us. And um
17:34 last year we invited 35 speakers and 34
17:40 of them accepted
17:43 and and we're like because we knew we
17:45 were going to do a 24-hour thing. So we
17:46 figured if we'd asked 34, 24 would say
17:49 yes, maybe, right? You know, 34 out of
17:52 35 and the 35th one actually said yes,
17:55 but they just they had a conflict. They
17:56 couldn't do it. Um and and so we we put
18:00 panels together and things like that.
18:01 And so the way the event works is it's
18:04 Friday the 26th
18:07 um from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern
18:10 and then Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00
18:12 p.m. Eastern. So it's 12 hours across
18:14 two days with a little nap time in
18:17 between. Um and it was absolutely a
18:21 remarkable thing. So if you're new to
18:23 AI,
18:25 you need to come to Festivus and you you
18:27 need to tell your friends about it. It's
18:29 free. It costs no money. the speakers
18:32 that come speak um volunteer their time.
18:35 And this is, you know, this is in the
18:37 holidays between Christmas and New
18:38 Year's. And what I found remarkable is a
18:40 lot of our speakers last year like
18:43 showed up at 9:00 a.m. on Friday and
18:46 stayed until 9:00 p.m. on Saturday. Like
18:48 they spoke at somewhere in the middle,
18:50 but they were just hanging out with
18:51 everyone. It was really remarkable. We
18:53 had 3,500 people sign up. We had 2500
18:56 people show up. We had concurrent um
18:59 views of about 560
19:02 um viewers on average per hour for for
19:06 24 hours. Um Valer Cox, I come for the
19:10 enthusiasm you have for this technology
19:12 and the encourage encouragement from
19:13 everyone. Awesome. And and that's you
19:16 know what what I can tell you that
19:18 festivist was last year was human.
19:23 Even though people were talking about
19:25 technical things like like I think of uh
19:28 CJ Fletcher he's a he's an AI artist and
19:31 he was teaching mid or he was teaching
19:33 stable diffusion how he makes images how
19:34 he prompts images
19:37 and
19:39 his talk started out and he said you
19:41 know
19:43 I'm going to talk to you about how I
19:45 make my images but I'm going to tell you
19:46 the first step that I do when I sit down
19:49 to make art. He said, "I close my eyes
19:52 and I breathe."
19:55 [laughter]
19:56 And he just he just sat in silence for a
19:59 moment. And it was just like you're just
20:01 like, "Where's this going?" And he was
20:03 just talking about just centering
20:05 himself and thinking about his
20:08 intention. What's he want to do? And it
20:11 was just this beautiful moment where
20:13 it's like, oh yeah, like there's
20:15 something about the endorphine rush and
20:18 the adrenaline rush of AI because it's
20:20 so fast. You're like, I got to I put in
20:22 my prompt and I got going to get the
20:24 images. I'm going and CJ was like, you
20:27 know what you should do? Breathe. It's
20:30 like, oh yeah, we can just be us. And
20:33 like to a person, even if people were
20:36 talking about technical things, they
20:38 weren't leading with that. What they
20:39 were leading with was here's how I think
20:41 about AI. Here's how I think about what
20:43 I want to do. Like I, you know, I feel
20:45 like an impostor up here speaking
20:48 because I just learned how to do this.
20:50 Right? There was there was a lot of
20:51 that. Everyone's trying to figure it
20:53 out. So, if you're new to this, tell
20:57 people about Festivist. And if you
20:58 could, Brandon, throw up the uh throw up
21:00 the image if you haven't done that
21:01 already. [clears throat and cough]
21:04 Um,
21:07 just mark the dates for now. We're going
21:09 to we're going to put together a sign up
21:11 form here shortly, but there's I think
21:13 57 days now. So, if you're doing your
21:17 Advent calendar, you can you can start
21:19 today. Start marking off days until
21:21 Festivus. So, December 26th and 27th. Um
21:25 AI for the rest of us. Um if you're
21:28 like, "Hey, Kyle, but that's the holiday
21:31 that I'm spending with my family. Why
21:33 are you doing a 24-hour
21:36 uh AION in the middle of that? Well,
21:40 have you ever spent time with your
21:42 family?
21:43 You you you know by the 26 you know by
21:46 that Friday you'll be sick of them,
21:48 right? Like you know how that goes.
21:50 You're really excited the first two
21:52 days. The third day you get in a
21:54 argument with Uncle Jess and by the
21:56 fourth day you're like I just we got I
21:58 got to go. I got to I I can't can we
22:00 change our flight? No.
22:02 So, you know what you do now? You've got
22:05 festivists. You just tell people, "I I
22:07 got a business thing. I got to go do
22:09 this business thing. You just come hang
22:11 out with us." All right. So, that's what
22:13 that's about. [laughter]
22:18 [music]
22:22 That's actually a good idea, Mary. Do an
22:24 advent calendar that tells you which AI
22:26 tool to play with between now and
22:28 Festivus. Actually, that's a fun idea. I
22:30 know. Hey, Brandon, I'm not supposed to
22:32 open loops. If Andy, if you're
22:35 listening, just just go get yourself a a
22:38 warm milk right now. [laughter]
22:44 But we really should put together an
22:45 advent calendar or do like a daily post
22:48 from now until Festivus about some tool
22:50 to go play with. I like that. It's in in
22:52 line with the practice thing.
22:56 I don't know who's going to do that, but
22:57 anyone wants to volunteer to do that.
23:00 Let [clears throat] Brandon know.
23:04 Oh man.
23:06 [sighs]
23:08 You go to the washroom [laughter] and
23:10 then sit down and join Festivus.
23:12 Exactly. You're just like, "Hey, yeah,
23:14 I'll have some leftovers. Can you put
23:15 that into a sandwich? I got to run to
23:17 this this business call. When's it
23:19 start?" "Uh, nine." "Oh, that's like in
23:21 10 minutes." "Yeah, it's just nine." And
23:23 then I'll just do that. And when's it
23:25 over? Um 900 p.m. Saturday.
23:30 That That That's tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah.
23:32 Yeah. I'll just I'll be in there. I'll
23:34 be in the home office. If you could just
23:36 bring me water so I don't dehydrate,
23:38 that would be great.
23:43 [music]
23:47 [music]
23:50 I have lovable. I've been unlovable, but
23:53 I don't know how to move unlovable.
23:56 [laughter]
24:01 [music]
24:05 Oh, wait.
24:09 [music]
24:21 Um, okay, champ. I'll let you be. Sorry
24:24 about that. I didn't realize I was
24:25 playing guitar. Um, Kyle, scroll back.
24:28 If you want some inspo for Suno tonight,
24:31 just an idea if you feel like using me.
24:34 9 until 9,
24:37 you go to the rost room, sit down, and
24:38 join Festivus. Is that your song idea?
24:41 [laughter]
24:45 Uh, let's see.
24:49 June Mary is definitely going to be at
24:51 Festivus. Good. You got to be there. You
24:54 got to be there. Like honest to God,
24:56 it's the spirit of
25:02 people
25:05 like the generosity of the speakers and
25:07 the
25:09 generosity of the audience
25:12 to just like be enthusiastically there
25:15 like cheering on the speakers and the
25:17 speakers cheering on the audience.
25:21 it like it was it was so intoxicating
25:24 that we got to the end of this 36-hour
25:27 run. So it was 900 p.m. Saturday night.
25:29 We're like Anna Anna and I were like,
25:31 "Okay, we're wasted. We're going to
25:33 bed." And the audience was like, "Can we
25:36 keep hanging out?" And we hadn't planned
25:38 for that. So we kind of just said, "Go
25:40 deal with it on your own." And I think
25:42 there was kind of a rogue afterparty. Um
25:45 and so this year we're going to actually
25:46 have an afterparty. I don't think Ann or
25:48 I are gonna probably be there for much
25:50 of it because, you know, we're old.
25:52 [laughter]
25:53 Well, I am.
25:57 And uh but but we're going to have that
25:59 this year. But it was just it was really
26:01 really kind of magical and it and it was
26:03 it was just awesome. Corey pin. Okay,
26:04 great. An idea. Take the image and
26:08 upload it to chat GPT and ask what could
26:12 a song
26:15 [sighs]
26:15 Tik Tok.
26:20 There's Let me explain to you one of the
26:24 crimes in my life.
26:27 When you pin a When you pin a comment on
26:29 TikTok, it shows two lines of text, but
26:32 it allows you to input up to three lines
26:34 of text. And so if you want to expand
26:37 the two lines to read the other
26:39 sentence, there's a little microscopic
26:42 drop-down menu where the the the point
26:45 that you touch is smaller than the
26:47 microscopic dropown menu. And there's
26:49 like three other interface elements
26:52 around it. So [laughter] So I'm
26:54 constantly trying to expand the little
26:56 thing so I can read what someone wrote.
26:58 So I don't know what the end of your
27:00 sentence was.
27:03 a song about for for Eloise.
27:07 I don't How's that tied to Festivus? Is
27:09 it Festivus? Wait, wait. Oh, the Eloise
27:12 image that you uploaded. Wait, let me
27:14 see if I can hit the little button. I
27:16 did it
27:19 about the Eloise series.
27:22 This is for your Sunno song.
27:29 But wait, I'm still confused. Is Eloise
27:32 in the song I wrote or is isn't Eloise
27:34 that image that you did, Corey?
27:37 Check your regulars.
27:46 [clears throat]
27:48 Oh, here we go. Oh, there's Eloise.
27:50 Nice.
27:52 Another part of working through a series
27:54 on Eloise.
27:57 Anyone else feeling inspired
28:00 after this week's two shows? I love it
28:02 when Kyle gets like this. It inspired
28:03 me. Oh, that's nice, Sharon. I can't
28:06 wait to go along for the ride. Oh, this
28:08 is great. These are great, Corey. Wasn't
28:10 there another one? Or was this the one
28:12 from last night? Yeah, this the one from
28:14 last night.
28:15 >> That would be nice if all of us could
28:17 see what she's
28:18 >> I know. Look how pretty. Look at that.
28:21 Look how nice.
28:24 All right. So,
28:26 let's do Okay. So, here's what we're
28:28 going to do.
28:29 We're going to just go play.
28:32 So, while I'm here, we're going to come
28:34 back to that for a second. While I'm
28:36 here, if you're new here,
28:41 and you haven't seen this, this,
28:45 if you go to the salon.ai AI that
28:49 Brandon just put up there
28:52 and then click on join our community.
28:54 When you get to the first little space,
28:56 there's a welcome video there from Leah
28:58 Fasten and I and then right below that
29:00 is this image and it's we call this the
29:03 cycle of AI readiness. And
29:06 um if you haven't seen this before, the
29:08 whole idea here is
29:12 rather than put a bunch of pressure on
29:14 yourself that you have to learn AI, it I
29:17 just I just testified to the New Mexico
29:20 science and technology committee for the
29:22 legislature there and I showed this
29:25 graphic and I and I talked about this
29:27 this idea and I said, you know, for one
29:30 thing, if you're trying to keep up with
29:32 what's going on in AI, you can't like I
29:35 can't I do it every day and I can't keep
29:36 up with it. Um and I said
29:41 rather than putting pressure on yourself
29:42 that you have to learn AI, just go play
29:44 with it. Just go play. Just go play. Go
29:47 play. Remove the expectations. Just go
29:49 play. And then create excellence is like
29:51 after you play and learn some things,
29:54 now you can start to say, "Huh, I've got
29:56 an idea to blank, to do something
29:58 interesting, to write a song, to write
30:00 an album, to whatever, write a musical."
30:03 Um,
30:06 new folks, what is
30:07 community.thesalon.ai?
30:10 Um, okay. So,
30:14 when you go to when you say join our
30:16 community or if you go to
30:17 community.thesalon.ai,
30:20 that takes you to our community website.
30:23 So, it's built on top of a platform
30:24 called Mighty Networks, which is
30:26 irrelevant. It doesn't really matter
30:27 what platform it's built on, but that's
30:29 the place where people can go hang out
30:32 together. And in between these meetings,
30:34 so like on these meetings, you can chat
30:36 with one another, which is super cool.
30:37 And that's a big part of this community
30:39 is hanging out during these lives and
30:42 supporting one another. But in between
30:44 that, you can go to the AI salon and
30:46 this is the little welcome um area.
30:49 There's sort of this five-step start
30:51 your adventure. You know, introduce
30:53 yourself is a big important part of this
30:55 community. So, if you haven't introduced
30:57 yourself to the community, do that. Um,
31:01 and and then there's uh a community
31:04 feed. If you just want to jump in and
31:06 see what events we have coming up or
31:08 just jump in and and start a
31:10 conversation, you can do that. There's a
31:12 play area. There's a learn and grow
31:15 area. There's an advocacy and policy
31:17 area. And then we've got a couple of
31:18 other things in there. So, there's lots
31:20 and lots of things to do here. One of
31:23 the areas inside play and create is
31:25 called the AI learning lab I irregulars
31:27 channel and that's this group. So we
31:29 have our own space and you can go play
31:31 in there. So what I'm going to do is I'm
31:33 going to take Corey Sandler's picture
31:35 here. Actually I'm going to take two of
31:36 them and we're going to jump over to
31:38 chat jeopa.
31:41 [snorts]
31:42 Excuse me. So there's one of the
31:45 pictures. Let me go grab the other one.
31:47 Oh file failed to upload. Awesome. Let
31:50 me reload this page.
32:00 [clears throat]
32:03 Copy image. [gasps] Copy image.
32:08 Copy image. Paste.
32:11 All right. So now we have
32:16 So I'm going to say this is Eloise.
32:22 What is her backstory?
32:29 if you've not tried that little prompt
32:33 before in chat GPT. So like go to
32:35 midjourney or go somewhere and make an
32:37 image or take a picture of yourself or
32:39 whatever you know yourself in costume or
32:42 just do do some some kind of crazy
32:45 character and go into chat GPT and
32:48 upload that image and say what was
32:52 what what's their backstory or what's
32:54 the backstory of this image and chat GPT
32:56 is really good at it. Eloise grew up in
32:58 a town that never quite fit inside the
33:01 lines. The streets were slightly
33:03 crooked. The clouds always seemed to
33:05 pause for a bit of daydreaming before
33:07 they drifted on. And the trees swayed in
33:09 time with music no one else could hear.
33:12 [snorts] From the time she was little,
33:14 Eloise had a way of noticing things
33:16 differently. So, and it italicized that
33:21 she saw colors where others saw shadows,
33:23 rhythms in silence, and stories in the
33:25 patterns of falling leaves. Her mother
33:28 used to say that she was stitched
33:29 together with wind and laughter. And her
33:31 father, an absent-minded toy maker,
33:34 believed that she had been born from a
33:36 wish he'd made on a comet.
33:39 Um, she became known around town as the
33:42 girl who could change the weather of of
33:44 a room simply by entering it. I love
33:48 change the weather of a room. I love
33:49 that. When she was happy, curtains
33:52 fluttered without a breeze. When she
33:54 danced, lamps flickered brighter. Some
33:57 people said she was touched by magic.
33:59 Eloise always denied that. She said she
34:01 was just listening properly. Beautiful.
34:04 Beautiful.
34:06 Um, every morning she'd start the day
34:09 with a ritual, a swing under the old
34:12 sycamore. Back and forth she'd [snorts]
34:14 she'd go, eyes closed, hair alive,
34:18 um, with with wind, dreaming of
34:20 possibilities. And in the evening, she
34:22 danced through the town square, her coat
34:24 a kaleidoscope of color, her boots
34:26 tapping out the language only joy could
34:28 understand. But here's the secret.
34:31 Eloise's joy wasn't naive. She'd once
34:34 known heartbreak, deep bone level loss.
34:37 This is good, Corey. [laughter]
34:40 I I think I'm going to grab this and
34:42 I'll put it over in inner regulars. I'll
34:44 do it as a comment to the post. [snorts]
34:46 Um,
34:49 so it's a 30 day calendar of AI tools. I
34:52 can make that beautiful actually. Yeah,
34:54 I was thinking we could vibe code that.
34:56 Well, I'd actually like it to be it can
34:59 be more than 30 days. So, so it's
35:01 basically counting backwards from the
35:02 26th of December to today. So, or or
35:06 like whenever we want to create the
35:08 calendar from. [laughter] So, so if we
35:10 did it from today, it would be a 57day
35:12 advent calendar of different tools that
35:14 but that would be cool. If if if you
35:16 want to if someone wants to grab
35:18 creative AI digital coach uh and uh and
35:22 just coordinate with her, I think her
35:24 that would be great. Okay, but here's
35:27 the secret. Eloise's joy wasn't naive.
35:29 She'd once known heartbreak, deep bone
35:30 level loss that nearly unstitched her
35:33 spirit. Instead of shutting down, she
35:34 learned to weave sorrow into beauty, to
35:37 let every gust of pain feed her light.
35:40 Her
35:42 her laughter carries a trace of ache,
35:44 which is why it feels like sunrise after
35:46 rain. Now, if you pass through her town,
35:50 you might hear the faint creek of a
35:52 swing or see the flash of swirling. This
35:54 is a This is weirdly like um Weird Mary.
35:58 Um that's Eloise reminding the world
36:00 that the art of living is equal parts
36:03 grief and grace often carried lightly on
36:06 the wind. Um would you like me to
36:08 continue the story? I'm going to say
36:09 that's beautiful. Um that's beautiful.
36:14 Um,
36:17 I want you to tell me about
36:22 your five favorite
36:27 songs that
36:30 Eloise has ever written.
36:34 So rather than saying I want Chat GPT to
36:37 write a song, we're gonna we're going to
36:38 have Chat GPT reveal Eloise's songs.
36:42 This could be good.
36:43 >> [laughter]
36:47 >> Oh man. Okay. Wind in my pockets genre.
36:52 Whimsical folks folk walts with a sigh
36:54 of jazz. Mischievous freedom. Eloise
36:58 wrote this one after she sold her last
37:00 pair of gloves to buy paint for her
37:02 walls. It's a song about the beauty of
37:04 almost having nothing but feeling like
37:06 the richest soul alive. The chorus goes,
37:09 "Got the wind in my pockets and joy in
37:11 my seams. a thread bare coat full of
37:14 foolish dreams. It's become the
37:17 unofficial anthem of wanderers and
37:20 optimists everywhere. Oh, I think I we
37:22 got to we got to do wind in my pockets.
37:25 We got to do wind in my pockets because
37:27 the the unofficial anthem of wanderers
37:29 and optimists if if ever there was a uh
37:32 a a uh you know a tag for this for this
37:36 group. [laughter]
37:41 Corey's like, "Oh my god, I know. It's
37:44 amazing. The sky remembers me. A lyrical
37:46 ballad with soaring strings,
37:47 bittersweet, and eternal. This one she
37:49 wrote after she fell in love on a train
37:51 that never came back."
37:53 Wow.
37:55 After her her [clears throat] first
37:57 love. Oh. Left on a train that never
37:58 come back. It's not a sad song. Exactly.
38:01 More reverent. Goodbye to innocence. The
38:03 melody rises like dawn.
38:08 We We live in remarkable times. Oh,
38:11 look. Make a CL playlist connect
38:13 Spotify. So if you don't know this
38:15 within chat GPT right now they announced
38:17 things called apps. And apps are apps
38:21 like Spotify and Door Dash and I don't
38:24 know whatever the [ __ ] else, Expedia,
38:26 things like that. Um where you can
38:29 actually do things within Chat GPT that
38:32 are that are being pulled in from other
38:34 websites. It's basically like a little
38:35 web window for that application.
38:40 Um, [clears throat]
38:44 what was the what was the one called?
38:47 Wind in my pockets.
38:50 I think I need to see the lyrics of Wind
38:56 in my pocket.
38:58 And I want you to
39:02 give me a two let me a description
39:10 of
39:13 the song
39:16 musically.
39:18 All right. [clears throat]
39:27 Perfect choice
39:29 song begins with a lazy. Okay, here's
39:35 I ponded my gloves for a brush in a tin.
39:37 Painted the moon where the walls grew
39:39 thin.
39:41 Laughed when the landlord came to call.
39:43 Said I may be broke, but I've got it
39:45 all.
39:48 All right. Got the Okay.
39:54 No, just give me a prompt for a music
40:00 generator.
40:02 Um, we're we're going to try try
40:04 something fun tonight. We're going to
40:09 um I'm going to go write this song in
40:12 three different tools.
40:14 So, Sunno is kind of the Mac Daddy of
40:18 the music generator tools out there
40:19 right now.
40:22 UDIO is one that's that's was very good
40:25 and was kind of neck andneck with with
40:27 Suno for a while and then they kind of
40:28 faded a bit. And then the other one I'm
40:31 going to use is called um uh producer.ai
40:36 used to be called Refusion.
40:38 Create a whimsical acoustic 68 time. So
40:42 this is a 68
40:44 whimsical acoustic folk. Okay. So
40:47 there's our music prompt.
40:52 So, what am I going to do? I'm going to
40:54 go put this in a notebook. So, there's
40:58 the music prompt.
41:01 Let me go grab the lyrics.
41:05 [clears throat]
41:07 [singing]
41:21 80 deers. Winter is coming. Yeah. You
41:23 know what I noticed this morning? It was
41:25 chilly. [laughter]
41:28 And what are all those yellow leaves
41:29 around my car?
41:34 Oh man. Oh, thinking of Serena. Oh,
41:36 that's so sweet. I know. She's amazing.
41:39 So, if you didn't know Serena, Serena um
41:42 was the original, the OG Irregular. So,
41:49 Serena came to my very first live.
41:51 Serena was a fan of of my channel before
41:54 I started doing lives. So, so just when
41:56 it was a Tik Tok channel. And then I
42:00 said I was going live one night and
42:02 Serena showed up and she was at every
42:05 single live like ever. Like she didn't
42:08 she didn't miss one. And about 3 months
42:12 in or I don't know two months into doing
42:15 the lives, I noticed that all these
42:18 people kept showing up. They were all
42:20 the same people like Serena and I'm like
42:24 who are you people? Like I said, you're
42:26 [ __ ] weird. you're you're [ __ ]
42:28 weird. What's going on? And Serena just
42:31 immediately, like without hesitation,
42:34 she was very quiet. She didn't say much
42:35 of anything, but she immediately clapped
42:39 back. She goes, "We're not weird. We're
42:41 irregular." [laughter]
42:46 Oh my god, she was amazing. She was
42:47 super sweet, super supportive. um she
42:51 really kind of set the tone for
42:54 the generosity and the sweetness of the
42:57 people in this community and she
43:00 unfortunately passed away this year over
43:01 the summer and uh we miss her dearly. So
43:05 So yeah, I'm glad you said that. Um
43:09 Serena's handle was whose wife? She was
43:11 Alio's wife. That was her handle was
43:13 Alio. Amelio's wife. And so anyway, um
43:18 yeah, she was just absolutely amazing.
43:20 So I'm glad you said that, Source Camp.
43:24 Okay, let's jump over to
43:28 um to Sunno. And if you haven't seen
43:31 Sunno, these this tool is remarkable.
43:35 Fabiana, I cried. I know. I did too. I
43:37 Yeah, she like I honest to God, it's
43:40 like you know that song Only the Good
43:41 Die Young. like like
43:44 I mean she was such a generous heart.
43:47 She was a teacher and she was she just
43:50 loved this community. She just loved
43:52 this community, you know? She loved
43:54 Champy. She like remembered people's
43:57 birthdays, things like that. Um, if you
44:00 were writing a song and couldn't get
44:01 vocals right, would you call that
44:05 something?
44:07 What would I call that? I would call
44:09 that a pain in the ass. Oh, those Eloise
44:12 lyrics reminded me of Serena. Oh, that's
44:14 very sweet. Okay, so here we are at at
44:17 [clears throat] Sunno.
44:20 So, I'm going to jump in here. Um, I'm
44:23 going to pop the lyrics in here.
44:54 What's amazing about Sununo and all
44:56 these tools quite frankly is it's going
44:58 to take me longer to just like format
45:00 the lyrics than it will to make the
45:02 songs. Okay, so that's that. So, let me
45:05 go grab the the music prompt.
45:10 I'm going to come back over here and
45:12 we're going to throw in
45:16 There's the music prompt. And you can
45:18 [clears throat] do more than 200
45:19 characters now, which is great.
45:22 Hang on a sec.
45:27 Should I change my name? Nobody takes me
45:29 seriously. They think I'm about AI
45:32 Rising. Um,
45:37 I have an idea. I don't know what your
45:39 first name is, but what about this? What
45:43 if, cuz I think this is what your name
45:45 implies.
45:47 Um,
45:49 what if it's your first name rising? So,
45:50 if your name is Jim, Jim Rising or or
45:53 Mark Rising or whatever it might be,
45:57 and that you're using AI to do that, the
45:59 that I I'm I'm [clears throat]
46:02 increasingly passionate about um
46:10 being the counterveiling force
46:13 [laughter]
46:13 that I want the AI salon to be this
46:15 counterveiling force that a lot of the
46:18 world looks at AI as this advers
46:20 adversarial thing. It's like us against
46:23 AI. AI is out to take our jobs. AI is
46:25 out to be smarter than we are. AI is out
46:28 to like it's this adversarial thing.
46:31 The people in this community
46:34 don't see it like that because it's not
46:37 that if you don't treat it like that.
46:39 What what AI is is it's a reflector and
46:42 it's an amplifier and what it amplifies
46:45 is what you feed it. And so if you feed
46:47 it just like prompts like, you know,
46:50 give me a give me a song, it'll write
46:52 you a shitty song. But rather than, you
46:56 know, feeding it just a crappy prompt,
46:58 you feed it your ideas. You take your
47:00 humanity and feed that into the AI, it
47:04 reflects that back to you and amplifies
47:05 it. So it takes your ideas and amplifies
47:08 them. And so I think it's not AI rising,
47:12 it's you rising using AI. So, that might
47:14 be a thing that'll get you a little less
47:16 [ __ ] from the haters. [laughter]
47:20 [snorts] The truth [clears throat] is
47:21 that capitalism's out to get you. AI
47:23 Rising, you can watch it back
47:27 on YouTube if it glitched. Oh, okay.
47:29 Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Okay. So, anyway,
47:31 let's get back to this thing. So, we're
47:33 going to definitely have this be a woman
47:35 singing, right? Or does it matter? Yeah,
47:39 I paused my gloves, so it's got to be
47:40 Eloise. So whimsical acoustic featuring
47:43 clarinet upright bass. The tempo should
47:46 be the mood is playful yet soulful.
47:49 Imagine a free spirited red-headed woman
47:52 singing about finding joy while being
47:55 broke. Her voice is warm textured
47:57 slightly raspy. Okay, good. So it
47:59 describes her voice. So let's just go.
48:01 We're going to turn on advanced
48:02 features. We're going to say female
48:05 because we want that. We're going to
48:07 throw up weirdness because Eloise is
48:09 from this weird town. So, we'll throw
48:11 that up to like 70. Style influence is
48:14 fine at 50. Song title, what was it
48:17 called?
48:19 Um,
48:25 Wind in My Pockets.
48:29 [snorts]
48:34 So, Corey, this is your song. So, you're
48:37 going to have to be my my Rick Rubin
48:39 here. You like I'm the I'm the musician.
48:43 I'm the prompting musician in the booth.
48:45 Like, I'm working the console here. Uh
48:47 wind in my pockets. Um so, you're going
48:50 to have to tell me. Nah, that one makes
48:52 me feel orange. You're going to tell me
48:53 which one you like. And if you want to
48:55 if you want to modify the prompt. So,
48:57 here we go. All right. So, all of that
48:59 we just did was just putting the prompt
49:01 in there. So, now that the prompt's in
49:02 there, we'll have a song in about 30
49:04 seconds. If you haven't seen this
49:06 before, it's pretty crazy.
49:09 Got to field feels. Can you add cello?
49:13 It was a serious question. That was a
49:15 ser that was a serious answer. Um I
49:18 think you should change your name to
49:20 your name rising. Um I think if you just
49:23 say a AI rising, it makes sense that
49:25 people think it's a bot. You're putting
49:27 the AI front and center. Um and and what
49:31 what was your question? Is there
49:32 something wrong with your name?
49:35 How deep is our humanity to birth new
49:37 music?
49:40 AI is like Stephen King's The Stand.
49:43 Cello also got to feel the fields. Can
49:46 you add? I love you, Kyle. I am not a
49:50 blank AI. I'm Gen X. Try us,
49:52 [ __ ] [laughter]
49:56 I didn't think you were AI. [laughter]
50:01 Okay,
50:05 that's pretty funny. Okay, let's see.
50:07 Styles in the wind. Um, let's see.
50:11 Upright bass accordion. So, let's do
50:14 featuring clarinet cello.
50:18 Accordion.
50:20 All right. So, so the last two are the
50:24 first two are without cello. The last
50:26 two are with cello. Okay. Here we go.
50:30 Nice.

56:18 our Rick Rubin tonight. So Corey's
56:20 opinions weigh heavier tonight cuz it's
56:23 it's for her thing. And then we're going

59:53 Four's four is a little more melancholy.
59:55 So, what is it, Corey? How's Eloise? Is
59:59 she This is her signature song. Wait,
1:00:01 what did it say in chatbt?
1:00:04 It said um
1:00:08 It said Eloise wrote this one after she
1:00:11 sold her last pair of gloves to buy
1:00:13 paint for her walls. It's a song about
1:00:15 almost having nothing but feeling like
1:00:18 the richest alive. It's become the
1:00:21 unofficial anthem of wonderers and
1:00:23 optimists everywhere. So, do we go with
1:00:26 six? Maybe she's on stage under a circus
1:00:29 tent and your creepy circus guy from
1:00:32 last year is on the outside. That's
1:00:34 really funny.
1:00:36 So, six from side hustle Mimi.

1:00:42 I think for for optimists I think it's
1:00:46 six.
1:00:48 wonderers and optimists.
1:00:52 [music]
1:00:58 [music]
1:01:05 >> Wait, so from Hey Kyle, can I share the
1:01:08 advent calendar with you or Brandon? I
1:01:11 started it in lovable. Yeah, share it
1:01:13 with um share it with Brandon. So, just
1:01:16 tag Brandon in the AI salon before is so
1:01:19 good, too. I know. Well, which one do
1:01:20 you want to make a video of? Cuz because
1:01:23 it's going to take a while to render
1:01:25 some some video stuff. Um,
1:01:29 I have one of the co-founders of Chat
1:01:30 GPT at my house right now. Surreal. Wow.
1:01:33 Awesome. Hello. And by the way, AI
1:01:36 Rising, thank you for the kind words you
1:01:37 said earlier. That was very, very sweet
1:01:39 of you. Um, which co-founder? Anyone
1:01:42 we'd know? [clears throat]
1:01:46 I like the intro of four a bit better.
1:01:53 [laughter] Okay. Yeah, exactly. So, so
1:01:55 AI Rising, I don't know if you knew
1:01:57 this. So I it sounds like you've seen me
1:02:00 on the lives for a while. So, I don't
1:02:02 know if you know this, but like one of
1:02:03 my one of my things is that I deeply
1:02:06 believe that that OpenAI needs to hire
1:02:09 some Gen Xers and they they need and
1:02:11 they need to hire some liberal arts
1:02:13 majors and they need to hire a Gen Xer
1:02:15 that they just put in the corner office
1:02:17 and and my only job is to sit there and
1:02:20 [ __ ] about stupid [ __ ] like you can't
1:02:22 generate an image in 16 by9 [laughter]
1:02:26 or you know the naming conventions that
1:02:28 that there's just a respected angry Gen
1:02:31 Xer just waiting for them. No, you can't
1:02:33 release that. No, you can't release No,
1:02:36 back into the lab. [laughter]
1:02:38 So, so if there's an opportunity for a
1:02:42 uh an articulate Gen Xer with with a
1:02:45 with an arts degree [snorts] um inside
1:02:48 Open AI, have Sam give me a call.
1:02:52 [laughter]
1:02:54 I can't name him. He's the sweetest man
1:02:56 on the planet. It actually doesn't
1:02:57 surprise me. I mean, the the uh I really
1:03:00 do feel like the the people within Open
1:03:02 AI are are are just trying to figure
1:03:05 this [ __ ] out. Like I they get they get
1:03:08 a lot of [ __ ] for um they got a lot of
1:03:12 [ __ ] for
1:03:14 being as powerful as they are, which I
1:03:16 understand and there's there's a lot of
1:03:17 responsibility with that. But I really
1:03:19 do just get the sense they're trying to
1:03:20 figure this [ __ ] out. So anyway, that's
1:03:22 cool. Super cool. Um let's see. Is angry
1:03:27 Gen Xer redundant? Aren't we all angry?
1:03:29 Yeah, it's a really good point. Sorry.
1:03:31 They just need a Gen Xer in the corner
1:03:33 office. [laughter]
1:03:39 [gasps] Okay. Which one are we doing,
1:03:40 kids? All right. So, how are we going to
1:03:43 do this? We've got to we've got to do a
1:03:44 vote here. So, we're going to vote
1:03:46 between four and six. So, here's four.
1:03:51 [music]
1:03:58 >> [music]
1:04:03 >> Upon my gloves for a brush and tin
1:04:08 [music]
1:04:09 painted the moon where the walls grew
1:04:12 thin
1:04:15 when the landlord came to call. [music]
1:04:19 >> This one sounds more authentically poor.
1:04:23 Right. Like, do you guys know that Jenny
1:04:26 Lewis song? Um, the is it Jenny Lewis?
1:04:29 Uh, uh, white fur jacket, white
1:04:33 No, white rabbit coat.
1:04:42 White rabbit. Wait, rabbit something.
1:04:45 Rabbit coat
1:04:56 rabbit fur coat.
1:05:00 It's a complete scam.
1:05:02 >> I'm from Canada, too. And I found out
1:05:04 how much it costs for like school,
1:05:09 >> right?
1:05:12 [music]
1:05:16 I was a poor folk, [music]
1:05:21 but my mother,
1:05:25 >> right?
1:05:26 >> Doesn't that sound like that? I think
1:05:28 that's the one. I think four is the one.
1:05:30 It just It feels more authentic
1:05:33 to who Eloise is. And we don't want to
1:05:36 we we [laughter] don't we we we got to
1:05:38 be authentic to Eloise. We let her down.
1:05:42 Said I may be broke, but I've got it
1:05:46 all.
1:05:48 Got the wind in [music] my pockets, joy
1:05:52 in [singing] my seat [music]
1:05:55 there.
1:06:00 [laughter]
1:06:00 >> Ulu RX Mel. [ __ ] that just sounds too
1:06:04 sad. How about some good bar fight
1:06:05 songs? Okay, [laughter] let's let's
1:06:08 wait. Let's do a version of this. Uh,
1:06:10 we'll say whimsy. Let's see. Um, let's
1:06:14 say um barf fight [laughter]
1:06:17 bar fight song in 68. Then we'll get rid
1:06:21 of all of the other stuff. [laughter]
1:06:25 We'll see what we get with a 68 bar
1:06:27 fight song. We're going with number
1:06:29 four, by the way. [laughter] But but but
1:06:32 we got to hear the barfight version.
1:06:39 Kyle has thousands of music tabs open in
1:06:42 his head. That's actually pretty good.
1:06:44 [laughter]
1:06:46 Oh my god. Okay.

1:07:39 them. All right, this one is the one,
1:07:42 right?
1:07:45 [music]
1:07:52 It's amazing. You can actually hear the
1:07:53 breath in the clarinet.
1:08:04 >> Okay, we're going to download this.
1:08:08 And then we're going to go over to
1:08:09 Hedra.
1:08:12 Hedra.
1:08:13 Hello. Hedra.
1:08:16 Um
1:08:19 Hedra. If you don't know Hedra, Hedra.ai
1:08:22 is is I It's It's the um of the image
1:08:27 generation tools. It's the one I like
1:08:29 best. Hello. Tabs. Share this tab
1:08:32 instead.
1:08:47 Um, where's our model? Hedra character 3
1:08:51 16 by9.
1:08:53 Um, add character.
1:08:57 Upload. Oh, I got to go get the picture.
1:08:59 Hang on a sec.
1:09:03 Should
1:09:12 it be the one where she's dancing or in
1:09:14 the swing? I think it's the one in the
1:09:16 swing. Nah, we'll do the dancing one.
1:09:18 All right. Save image as
1:09:31 Okay.
1:09:33 Here we go. We're going to add
1:09:34 character. We're going to upload
1:09:37 Eloise.
1:09:40 Oh, okay. Oh, by the way, anyone who
1:09:44 works for any of these [ __ ]
1:09:45 companies, if you save your images in
1:09:47 AFF or whatever the
1:09:50 flip that thing is, AVIF, whatever it
1:09:53 is, what is it
1:09:55 that doesn't open in any other [ __ ]
1:09:58 application? You should you should be
1:10:00 punished.
1:10:02 Um,
1:10:07 AVIF.
1:10:08 Oh, drives me [ __ ] crazy. [laughter]
1:10:15 Uh,
1:10:20 [clears throat]
1:10:27 uh, yeah. Well, the the reason we use uh
1:10:29 AVIF or or or WEBP, WEBP of course is uh
1:10:33 the reason we use those formats is it's
1:10:35 much more efficient. the throughput of
1:10:37 the server, the bearing load of the
1:10:39 server uh when people are making uh
1:10:41 numerous images uh which of course you
1:10:42 know because we're a very popular
1:10:45 service uh we we realize that the the
1:10:47 bandwidth if we if we use something like
1:10:50 like a PNG format of course or JPEG
1:10:53 unless the compression is extremely high
1:10:54 which compresses the images and and
1:10:56 people are not happy and we spend a lot
1:10:58 of time on with customer service with
1:11:00 with quality issues. So we chose to go
1:11:02 with the web web P. We we understand
1:11:04 that there are some compatibility issues
1:11:06 and we we understand that those are
1:11:08 going to work themselves out within the
1:11:09 next decade or three. So we we find it a
1:11:12 a fair tradeoff.
1:11:14 Yeah. No, no, no, no. Just just save it
1:11:20 in PNG. Okay. Just do that. Okay. We'll
1:11:25 go raise another billion dollars.
1:11:28 You can leave my office now.
1:11:38 Okay. Did I Did I actually save that or
1:11:40 did I just go apoplelectic? Yes, I
1:11:44 actually saved that. Okay. There's that.
1:11:47 And then add speech. We're going to
1:11:48 upload the song.
1:11:58 Okay, there we go. We have a dancing
1:12:01 woman. We're going to generate.
1:12:04 Carrying on rather Cheerio pep pipep
1:12:10 generate. All right. So, that's going
1:12:12 [clears throat] to go make a video for
1:12:13 us of that. And then we could take that
1:12:16 into dscript and put subtitles on it and
1:12:19 things like that. Anyway,
1:12:22 all right. So, that's going to go do its
1:12:23 thing.
1:12:25 Let me get back to you all.
1:12:28 Thoughts?
1:12:31 Thoughts? You are the best human being
1:12:34 that I've ever met on TikTok, huh?
1:12:36 That's very sweet. [laughter]
1:12:42 Well, you know, [laughter]
1:12:46 here I'm probably the only human being
1:12:49 on TikTok willing to Is Mel still here?
1:12:52 Ulu RX, she sent me this. So, here's the
1:12:56 thing. Here's the thing about the women
1:12:58 here on on this channel. So, so, um,
1:13:03 Mel, who works for Ulu RX that sells
1:13:06 like, you know, hair chemicals, she was
1:13:10 like, "Hey, Kyle, I noticed that your
1:13:12 forehead is larger
1:13:15 recently, so I'm going to send you some
1:13:17 chemicals." And then she sent me this
1:13:19 bow, which was really sweet. Um, but
1:13:22 then I put it on like you like you wear
1:13:24 a bow. And then I was informed
1:13:27 apparently this is not how the ladies
1:13:29 wear these bows.
1:13:32 And so, you know, now I've got a
1:13:35 complex. I'm like, I know how to wear a
1:13:38 [ __ ] headband. You know, it just so
1:13:40 happens to have a bow on it, but
1:13:41 apparently there's a whole other way you
1:13:42 do this, which I don't know about.
1:13:46 Perfect. [laughter]
1:13:47 Thank you.
1:13:49 Actually, might be a bot actually. Yeah,
1:13:52 AI Rising may might actually be a bot. I
1:13:55 think that's a really good point.
1:13:57 [laughter]
1:13:58 What would a bot say?
1:14:01 A bot would say, "Everyone thinks I'm a
1:14:03 bot." I think I think AI Rising is a
1:14:06 bot. Yeah. See?
1:14:09 Oh, it's exhausting. [clears throat]
1:14:11 But, you know, you know, we're living in
1:14:14 times
1:14:16 I was thinking about this.
1:14:18 We're living in times where
1:14:22 um Why is that thing not starting to
1:14:24 render? That's driving me crazy. Um
1:14:28 right now it's weird. Won't let me
1:14:30 generate a song with the word skank in
1:14:33 the description. Shakes my head.
1:14:36 [laughter]
1:14:40 It was a meant as a gift for your wife.
1:14:42 No, you know what? Listen.
1:14:44 [clears throat]
1:14:46 My wife has tried she has she has taken
1:14:50 this from me three or four times.
1:14:54 Like I I come to do my show, I come to
1:14:56 put on my pink bow and it's [ __ ]
1:14:58 gone. And then I go to the back of the
1:15:01 toilet with the little basket of
1:15:04 goodies, the the little vials that cost
1:15:06 $78 each. And there's my pink bow. I
1:15:11 know you sent it as a gift to her. That
1:15:13 is it's not appropriate. It's not
1:15:15 appropriate. You should have sent two.
1:15:18 You should have sent two. [laughter] And
1:15:20 instructions apparently about how men
1:15:22 are supposed to wear them. [laughter]
1:15:29 I shall send another [laughter]
1:15:33 for domestic bliss.
1:15:35 This the bow has been a source of
1:15:37 contention in in the Shannon family.
1:15:41 [laughter]
1:15:45 Oh, good lord. That's funny. Oh,
1:15:50 [snorts] all right. Our little video is
1:15:51 up to 30%. So, as soon as we have a
1:15:53 video there, um, okay. Um,
1:15:58 back to AI as a practice. So, how many
1:16:02 folks we got in here? We got we got a
1:16:04 chunk of folks in here that probably
1:16:05 didn't hear this before.
1:16:07 [sighs and gasps]
1:16:10 I had a visual idea today
1:16:14 or like a visual metaphor.
1:16:17 I've been trying to figure out like like
1:16:19 what is a way to talk about the kinds of
1:16:21 things I've been thinking about where
1:16:24 you use AI as an amplifier rather than
1:16:27 rather than thinking of AI as this thing
1:16:29 of outside of you that is in competition
1:16:33 with you, you think of it like an
1:16:34 amplifier. And the the I woke up this
1:16:38 morning and I had this vision of um
1:16:45 you either have AI coming at you or you
1:16:48 have AI pushing you from behind.
1:16:51 And I think where we want to get is AI
1:16:54 pushing us from behind, right? Because
1:16:56 if AI is in front of you, then AI is
1:16:58 leading. AI is the tool. AI is the
1:17:01 brain. It's us against AI. But if AI is
1:17:05 behind you, you're in the lead.
1:17:09 And what do you do? That's up to you.
1:17:11 You get to do anything you want to do.
1:17:12 You get to be anything you want to be.
1:17:16 And AI is there to accelerate you and
1:17:19 amplify you and fill in your gaps. It's
1:17:21 behind you pushing you. So I don't know
1:17:24 what to do with that. But
1:17:27 anything you can do to shift your
1:17:29 relationship with AI is this adversary
1:17:32 versus AI is there to serve me as my
1:17:35 collaborator as my, you know, anything I
1:17:38 want done, it's going to do. That's the
1:17:41 big shift for me. And then the daily
1:17:43 practice thing that I've been talking
1:17:45 about and we're designing a framework
1:17:46 around right now is really about just
1:17:49 treating AI every day. Are you doing
1:17:52 something where you're learning some new
1:17:54 thing? You're just playing with
1:17:55 something new. You're just playing
1:17:57 playing finding the edges, exploring the
1:17:59 edges of what's possible and then
1:18:02 creating excellence. Are you working on
1:18:04 something that that is next level? You
1:18:07 know, putting together an advent
1:18:09 calendar in lovable, right? Turning that
1:18:11 into something interesting. And then
1:18:14 generously leading. Are you sharing it
1:18:15 with other people? Are you establishing
1:18:17 yourself as someone who's thinking
1:18:19 critically and creatively about how to
1:18:22 use AI?
1:18:24 And if you do that every day, just like
1:18:26 practice, just like breathing,
1:18:30 you can't help but to be one of the
1:18:33 leaders in whatever this thing's going
1:18:35 to become.
1:18:37 Um, and so that's my new passion. So if
1:18:40 if you haven't started thinking about AI
1:18:42 like a practice like that, you should do
1:18:44 that. It lets you accomplish things
1:18:46 you've always wanted to but haven't been
1:18:48 able to unable to until now. Yeah,
1:18:51 exactly.
1:18:54 And especially I'll tell you the thing
1:18:56 where where I find AI the most profound
1:19:00 is you see it in accessibility like the
1:19:03 neurolink things where you've got people
1:19:04 that are quadriplegics that are now you
1:19:06 know using computers and controlling
1:19:08 artificial limbs.
1:19:11 Um, you you see it you see it there, but
1:19:13 you also see it in people who are vision
1:19:16 impaired or, you know, audio impaired
1:19:18 or, you know, have lost someone and
1:19:20 they're trying to process through
1:19:22 something or, you know, all of their
1:19:25 lives have wanted to be able to make
1:19:27 visual things but for whatever reason,
1:19:30 you know, aren't good at that. Well, now
1:19:33 they can be, right? And so that that
1:19:35 augmentation of the gaps
1:19:38 in your humanity is is the thing that I
1:19:41 find incredibly inspiring about it.
1:19:44 After saving the AVA AVIF file, open it,
1:19:47 rightclick it, choose save as. At the
1:19:50 bottom of the dropown menu, does it give
1:19:51 you the option? Yeah, exactly. Exactly,
1:19:54 Chef Kelly. I Oh, I know what to save. I
1:19:57 know what to do. I shouldn't have to do
1:19:58 that. Like, if you're going to use a new
1:20:01 file format, make sure that people
1:20:02 support it.
1:20:04 Um, I made an advent calendar. I will
1:20:07 post it in the regulars. [laughter]
1:20:09 That's great.
1:20:15 Mary Mary, you've done your AI practice
1:20:17 deed of the day. I like that. What is
1:20:19 your AI practice deed of the day? It's
1:20:22 really good. Have you posted something?
1:20:24 Have you made something? Have you
1:20:25 learned something? Have you told
1:20:27 someone?
1:20:29 Have you asked a question of someone
1:20:31 else to give them an opportunity to
1:20:32 lead? That's really good. Really good.
1:20:36 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:20:38 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:20:40 Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:20:49 I love epiphany moments.
1:20:52 Absolutely. Share. Exactly. All right,
1:20:55 we're at 80% with our little thing here.
1:21:00 My hair is large. I got the other day at
1:21:02 work. I got [laughter] my sales guy got
1:21:06 on a Zoom call and he goes, "Hey, Kyle,
1:21:08 you're mighty flock of seagulls there
1:21:10 today. [laughter]
1:21:17 [laughter]
1:21:18 Oh yeah.
1:21:22 [clears throat]
1:21:30 >> [singing]
1:21:31 >> You're living large. When it comes to AI
1:21:34 music and I'm asked what do I play? I
1:21:37 play the AI.
1:21:40 Ah, large hair. My hair is large. Nice.
1:21:44 [laughter]
1:21:46 It is. I just looked over and it was
1:21:48 just like it was just very tall. It was
1:21:51 like a sail. [laughter]
1:21:54 AI helped me fix my water softener.
1:21:57 Seriously, even ordered the parts. Yeah.
1:22:13 I'm just sitting here thinking about
1:22:18 how incredibly lucky I feel to be able
1:22:20 to
1:22:22 to be present to what's happening in the
1:22:25 world with with these new tools. Um,
1:22:31 and I I felt similarly lucky in the mid
1:22:33 90s with the, you know, being
1:22:36 participating in the early days of the
1:22:38 worldwide web.
1:22:42 And I don't I don't think people really
1:22:44 take in how rare it is
1:22:46 to to live in a moment in history where
1:22:50 such profound changes are happening.
1:22:54 We get to be
1:22:57 we get to be the last generation
1:23:02 of human beings
1:23:06 that actually get to experience the joy
1:23:11 of not having been able to do like I'm
1:23:13 about to push the play button on this
1:23:16 this image
1:23:19 that's going to sing a song and I assume
1:23:21 pants
1:23:23 that Corey Sandler made in a series.
1:23:26 She's doing a series of images about
1:23:29 Eloise and she sent it and she said,
1:23:31 "Let's make a song about it." So, in the
1:23:34 last whatever it's been hour, we've made
1:23:36 a song. Well, no, Eloise shared her her
1:23:40 song lyrics that she wrote with us.
1:23:43 [laughter]
1:23:44 We then went and turned that into the
1:23:46 song and now Eloise is going to sing it.
1:23:52 Three years ago, this wasn't possible.
1:23:56 And three years from now, this is going
1:23:58 to be commonplace. Like, like it'll be
1:24:00 much faster. It'll be instant. Like the
1:24:02 the friction to do this will be zero.
1:24:05 So, you'll just be able to like imagine
1:24:07 this stuff and it'll just happen.
1:24:09 So right now we're in this really
1:24:12 magical moment where we get to discover
1:24:15 these things doing remarkable new things
1:24:18 and and we can appreciate
1:24:22 knowing what it was like three years ago
1:24:24 and earlier and what it's like now and
1:24:27 imagine what it's going to be like in
1:24:29 the future. That is such a remarkably
1:24:31 small slice of history. I don't know. I
1:24:33 just am feeling I am feeling grateful
1:24:36 for for being in the conversation.
1:24:42 [clears throat]
1:24:45 This is fusion spontaneous art.
1:24:50 All right, here we go.
1:24:53 [music]
1:25:01 >> [music]
1:25:05 >> I pawn my gloves for a brush and tin.
1:25:10 Painted the moon where the walls grew
1:25:14 thin.
1:25:16 Laughed when the landlord came to call.
1:25:20 [music]
1:25:21 Said broke
1:25:25 it all.
1:25:26 >> Okay. [laughter]
1:25:32 >> [laughter]
1:25:34 >> So we are wiggling. Yeah, that's here's
1:25:37 the thing.
1:25:40 Again, three years from now, she won't
1:25:43 just stand there on one leg for the
1:25:45 whole song, but in in today's
1:25:47 technology, she will. So this is this is
1:25:51 absolutely [ __ ] perfect
1:25:54 [laughter]
1:25:54 because it's [ __ ] weird. And so she
1:25:58 lives in a weird magical town and she
1:26:00 sings by standing on one foot. Maybe use
1:26:03 the image from last night on the pillows
1:26:05 on the bridge. Oh, was there a pillows
1:26:07 on the bridge one? I think that one
1:26:08 would be better. Let me go let me let me
1:26:11 go find pillows on the bridge. I thought
1:26:12 she was on a swing. Or was there one
1:26:15 before that?
1:26:18 Oh, the pillows on the bridge. Oh, yeah.
1:26:19 This one will be better. But do we have
1:26:21 the top? Oh, yeah. This Oh, this is the
1:26:23 one I thought we had. Okay. Yeah. You
1:26:25 know what? I'm a dumb dumb. All right,
1:26:27 Eloise, too.
1:26:30 [laughter]
1:26:31 We We have a good comedy one where she's
1:26:34 standing on one foot.
1:26:36 [laughter]
1:26:39 Okay, let's let's make another one,
1:26:43 shall we?
1:26:45 [laughter]
1:26:46 Oh god, that's funny.
1:26:53 >> [singing]
1:26:57 >> Oh, I got to go change it from AVIF.
1:26:59 Hold, please. Let me go do some file
1:27:02 management because developers,
1:27:06 we're not happy with this. I am going to
1:27:09 make this a wee tad
1:27:12 brighter,
1:27:15 which probably gonna piss off Corey
1:27:17 Sandler, but [laughter]
1:27:20 but I want I want a little more
1:27:25 duplicate.
1:27:27 Yeah, that's fine.
1:27:30 There we go. Okay, that's good. And then
1:27:33 do export. We'll do export as JPEG. It's
1:27:39 a desktop. Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:27:41 Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
1:27:44 Fantastic. Bob, tell him what he's want.
1:27:48 You want a new car?
1:27:53 [clears throat]
1:27:56 [singing]
1:27:59 Can you prompt it so she actually sings
1:28:02 it? That's Well, she will. She is
1:28:04 singing it in that other one. It's just
1:28:06 weird because she's uh
1:28:09 because she's um
1:28:11 hang on a sec. Add character upload.
1:28:14 It's weird because she's balancing on
1:28:16 one foot, so you can't really take her
1:28:17 head in. [laughter]
1:28:19 But this one's going to be good because
1:28:22 she's just standing on the on the
1:28:24 pillows. So, this will be better. So,
1:28:26 we're going to upload the song
1:28:29 [clears throat]
1:28:33 [sighs and gasps]
1:28:33 [panting]
1:28:35 generate.
1:28:39 I guess I could put a prompt in there,
1:28:40 but I don't really care. I just I just
1:28:42 want to have it do it. All right.
1:28:45 [clears throat]
1:28:51 You've won the highest feeling in my
1:28:52 heart. AI rising. I do think you're an
1:28:54 AI bot at this point. [laughter]
1:29:01 That's what I think. [laughter]
1:29:05 [gasps]
1:29:21 I created skin care. skincare fairy
1:29:23 tales on AI. I cracked myself up. Not
1:29:26 sure if anyone else will laugh. Well,
1:29:28 you know, Mel, I I think what's
1:29:31 Have Have you seen Did you see the thing
1:29:33 that Jim Ross did for Oh, wait. What
1:29:36 just happened? Hedra API error. That
1:29:38 sucks. Don't tell me. Um,
1:29:42 a AWS is down again. Error. Huh,
1:29:47 this is frustrating.
1:29:51 Um, let me reload.
1:29:55 Hang on a sec.
1:29:58 Add character upload
1:30:01 desktop Eloise 2. Add upload
1:30:06 downloads. Wind my pockets.
1:30:10 Generate.
1:30:15 Nope. All right. Hedra's down.
1:30:18 That's a drag.
1:30:27 [clears throat]
1:30:38 All right. Well, we got one video out of
1:30:40 it.
1:30:46 >> [whistles]
1:31:05 [whistles]
1:31:09 [whistles]
1:31:15 [snorts]
1:31:15 >> We'll just watch her do the balance. ing
1:31:16 act here. But we got to play the whole
1:31:18 song. We haven't played the whole song
1:31:20 yet. And then after the live tonight,
1:31:22 I'll go Corey. I'll take the one where
1:31:24 she's standing on the pillows and I'll
1:31:25 go make a video of her um
1:31:29 [snorts]
1:31:30 [clears throat]
1:31:30 doing the doing the uh doing the song on
1:31:34 the pillows and then I'll send that to
1:31:36 you. You can you can have your way with
1:31:38 Eloise. [laughter]
1:31:43 >> [gasps]
1:31:46 >> What's happening?
1:31:49 What's happening? Are we crashed? Are we
1:31:51 crashing?
1:31:52 Is that what's going on here?
1:31:57 Oh my god. I think we might be crashing.
1:32:35 Don't ever tell me that I'm AI.
1:32:38 [laughter]
1:32:48 >> [laughter]
1:32:48 >> Sorry, Mimi. I'm wiped out. Good night.
1:32:51 Um, all right. Let me see if I can get
1:32:57 this to run.
1:33:00 There we go. [music]
1:33:08 >> [music]
1:33:12 >> I p my gloves for a brush and tin.
1:33:17 [music]
1:33:18 Painted the moon where the walls
1:33:20 [singing] grew thin.
1:33:26 [singing]
1:33:29 >> Why not Sora? Because Sora can only do
1:33:32 um short little clips, eight seconds at
1:33:35 a time.
1:33:36 This does this does the full song.
1:33:41 [music]
1:33:46 >> Got the wind in my [music and singing]
1:33:47 pockets. Joy in my sea. A threadbear cup
1:33:54 full of foolish dreams. [music]
1:33:57 Can't find much, but I'll never be poor.
1:34:02 Long as I've [singing and music] got
1:34:04 laughter knocking at my door.
1:34:10 [music]
1:34:11 Found a coin on the [singing] lane.
1:34:15 [music] Spend it on tea. Spend it on tea
1:34:18 and the rest on rain. [music]
1:34:21 The clouds took pity and paid me back
1:34:26 [music] with silver light [singing] and
1:34:29 the sky to unpack.
1:34:33 Got the wind in my [music] pockets. Joy
1:34:37 in my seams, a threadbear
1:34:42 for the foolish dreams. [music]
1:34:47 >> Yeah, I haven't I haven't had good luck
1:34:51 um Corey with with Hedra being able to
1:34:54 do prompt coherence all that well. I
1:34:57 haven't tested it deeply, but it's kind
1:34:58 of like
1:35:00 like Sora and and um and VO3, you can
1:35:06 get they have really good prompt
1:35:08 coherence. You can get them to walk, but
1:35:09 they only do eight seconds at a time.
1:35:13 So, [snorts] like what we don't have
1:35:15 right now is something where I can take
1:35:16 this song and say what you just said,
1:35:18 have it do a series of things and do
1:35:21 camera cuts and things like that. Um
1:35:24 it'll get there. We're just not We're
1:35:25 just not there.
1:35:34 [singing]
1:35:40 Is that Is that linked
1:35:43 Brandon?
1:35:52 No. Is it LinkedIn? Is it LinkedIn? Um,
1:35:56 in the salon. Did you put the the link
1:35:59 to that thing in the salon?
1:36:02 Um, [sighs]
1:36:04 neon-ai
1:36:08 dash
1:36:10 quest dot
1:36:13 lovable.app.
1:36:18 What would be great? Whoever Whoever did
1:36:22 this made the advent calendar. Let's
1:36:25 see. AI advent calendar. This is great.
1:36:29 AI Festivus begins in 60 days. That's so
1:36:32 awesome.
1:36:35 Day one. Leonardo. Try it now. Oh, this
1:36:39 is so good. Am I sharing this? Yeah, I
1:36:42 think I am. Yeah. Yeah. Um, this is
1:36:45 great. Runway ML. This is good. This is
1:36:49 beautiful. Um, this is from Joe. So, so
1:36:53 Joe, in in Lovable, you should be able
1:36:56 to change the name of it. So, instead of
1:36:58 it saying neon-ai, which I assume is
1:37:01 what lovable came up with, can you
1:37:03 change it to AI festivis countdown or AI
1:37:07 festivis advent.lovable.app
1:37:12 because then we can we can countdown.
1:37:14 The other thing we should do is, oh,
1:37:18 here's how you can modify this app. I'm
1:37:20 going to give you I'm going to be like a
1:37:22 pain in the ass Gen X product guy. Um,
1:37:25 we should put the dates in the um
1:37:29 we should put the dates in like the
1:37:31 lower the lower part of these boxes. So
1:37:34 when the date is gone, it it like grays
1:37:37 out that box, but you can um
1:37:43 but you can uh you can still click on it
1:37:46 and it should go from high numbers to
1:37:49 low numbers. So So it should start at
1:37:53 six. It should start at 60 and end at
1:37:55 one. And then down here at the bottom to
1:37:57 the right here, it should say festivus.
1:37:59 So if you want to update if you want to
1:38:01 update the app, there's your tools. add
1:38:02 dates, have them grade out if we've
1:38:05 passed the date, um, but they still can
1:38:08 link, have them countdown from high
1:38:10 numbers to low numbers, and then add AI
1:38:13 festivus here at the end. [laughter]
1:38:19 Isn't it just like someone at the AI
1:38:21 learning lab, you do something nice for
1:38:23 them and build them an advent calendar
1:38:24 and they're like, "Okay, here's my
1:38:26 notes. [laughter]
1:38:31 Okay, I can do that. And I have the paid
1:38:32 plan. Awesome. Thank you. And add con.
1:38:36 Oh, yeah. That's good. Add confetti each
1:38:38 time you add one. That's really good. I
1:38:39 like that. Each time you use one of the
1:38:41 the advent doors. Um, that's really
1:38:44 good. That's awesome. Okay, cool.
1:38:47 Beautiful. Fan frigantastic, Bob.
1:38:51 You did good. Dead good. Okay, so
1:38:53 speaking of festivists,
1:38:56 um, and feel free to put the graphic up

1:39:03 AI Rising, you are effing. What is
1:39:07 happening? Help. [laughter]
1:39:10 AI Rising.
1:39:12 I want to know. I have a feeling AI

1:39:17 Okay, so here's information about AI
1:39:19 Festivus.

1:39:46 spread out over two days. So, it'll be,
1:39:49 you know, Friday and Saturday.
1:39:52 It's an opportunity for you to escape
1:39:54 your family with a legitimate excuse and
1:39:58 come learn AI. So, here's my request.
1:40:00 Here's my request.
1:40:04 Jot down the dates. Jot down AI
1:40:06 Festivus. Um, if you want to see last
1:40:08 year's lineup, [clears throat] it's it's
1:40:10 it's not it's last year's information.
1:40:12 If you go to AI festivist.com,

1:40:17 was like really amazing. And so we're
1:40:19 going to it's going to be amazing this
1:40:20 year as well. Um that'll be updated in
1:40:23 the next week or so. Um and if you're
1:40:26 like why don't you have your [ __ ]
1:40:27 together? AI Festivist last year was
1:40:30 conceived two weeks before we launched
1:40:32 it. So So the fact that we're 60 days
1:40:35 out or 57 days out um is kind of a
1:40:39 miracle. [laughter]
1:40:42 Can we still apply to present? Yes.
1:40:44 reach out to uh to myself or Brandon or
1:40:48 and I know I owe you a uh a response to
1:40:51 something on LinkedIn or my email. Um
1:40:53 but reach out to uh Brandon or and Ann
1:40:56 Murphy. There's and Murphy is the one
1:40:58 sort of holding the list. Um because we
1:41:01 can't we can't have too many people
1:41:03 organizing all that. So
1:41:06 ah fest of us AI for the rest of us
1:41:09 indeed.
1:41:11 Um what was that question?
1:41:15 Um,
1:41:17 escape your family. That means I come to
1:41:20 stay with you in in Colorado. Yeah, you
1:41:23 can come stay. You can stay come stay
1:41:25 here in Colorado. You can teach me how
1:41:26 to put on the pink bow. [laughter]
1:41:31 I got to get myself some new hair
1:41:33 product. Although, I got to say, my
1:41:35 current hair product, it's some cheap

1:42:12 think you're AI.
1:42:15 Um, let me go look and see. Is this
1:42:17 thing rendering? All right. The new
1:42:20 video is at 80%.
1:42:22 [clears throat]
1:42:24 All right. I won't go just yet.
1:42:32 Greg Stokes, where is this event? So,
1:42:34 it's online. So, um, you'll have to
1:42:38 register for it. You'll if you just join
1:42:40 the AI salon. We're going to be
1:42:42 promoting it all throughout the AI
1:42:43 salon. So AI Festivus is a joint
1:42:46 production between the AI salon and she
1:42:49 leads AI. So it's hosted by myself and
1:42:51 Anne Murphy.
1:42:53 We'll have all these speakers. We'll
1:42:54 sort of kick it off and I I forget how
1:42:56 we do it. I think we talk in between
1:42:58 speakers or something like that. Um
1:43:00 [snorts]
1:43:01 and uh
1:43:03 and yeah, it's it's the 26th and 27th.
1:43:06 like my request. Seriously, one of the
1:43:09 things we're going to put together and I
1:43:10 I'll tell you when we've got it. They've
1:43:12 got these thing called things called
1:43:14 swipe graphics or swipe cards where
1:43:16 we're going to put together a folder
1:43:18 where you can take all sorts of um uh
1:43:22 like social media graphics that we'll
1:43:24 provide for you for festivist and you
1:43:26 can go share them on your socials. So my
1:43:29 request is start talking about
1:43:31 festivist, start talking about your
1:43:32 friends get, you know, getting there.
1:43:34 Last year we had 3,500 people sign up
1:43:37 and 2500 people show up and we had an
1:43:40 average concurrent hourly you know
1:43:44 watchers of like 560 people average
1:43:48 across 24 hours in between Christmas and
1:43:51 New Year's [laughter]
1:43:53 which is which is just stupid but it
1:43:56 goes to show you there was something
1:43:59 about it that was really special. Um so
1:44:01 I want it to be more special this year.
1:44:03 We've got a bit more time. All right.
1:44:05 Yeah, 81 countries, I think. Yeah, it
1:44:07 was crazy. You introduce the speakers,
1:44:11 Kyle. Thank you. I'm glad I'm glad that
1:44:14 my audience knows more about the thing
1:44:16 I'm about to produce than I do.
1:44:19 [laughter]
1:44:23 It's only appropriate.
1:44:26 >> [laughter]
1:44:27 >> Um, by the way, Hedra, the the thing
1:44:30 that I just made this video in is
1:44:33 they've put on a uh
1:44:37 a what you call it, a Halloween contest
1:44:39 that it's the 29th, so you get two days.
1:44:43 If you make a Halloween thing and put
1:44:45 that out there, um, I think they give
1:44:47 you 100 credits or something like that.
1:44:49 So, so for what it's worth,
1:44:57 >> [sighs]
1:45:09 >> Please stop Thank you.
1:45:48 By the way, the other thing about this
1:45:50 channel is sometimes I'm a pin head
1:45:54 [laughter]
1:45:58 and if I don't share my screens right,
1:46:00 Then the people on YouTube can't hear
1:46:03 [ __ ] and they're like, "Well, I've got
1:46:05 but I've got my 80inch telev."
1:46:07 [clears throat] What I like to do when I
1:46:09 watch the AI learning lab is is um I I
1:46:11 like to to uh to stream I I use uh Apple
1:46:15 uh Air Share AirPlay I think it's
1:46:17 called. And then I uh I I I I launch it
1:46:21 on my phone, but I put it on AirPlay.
1:46:22 And then I'm watching YouTube on my my
1:46:24 80inch television. And so when you don't
1:46:27 share the tab correctly, I we we don't
1:46:29 have audio and that's uh it's very sad.
1:46:33 So if you could just go ahead and
1:46:35 correct that, that would be terrific.
1:46:37 Yeah, that would be great.
1:46:43 [music]
1:46:53 I pawn my gloves for a brush [music] and
1:46:56 tin.
1:46:58 Painted the moon [singing]
1:47:00 where the walls [music] grew thin.
1:47:03 Laughed when the landlord came [music]
1:47:07 to call.
1:47:09 Said, "I may be broke, but I've got it
1:47:13 all.
1:47:15 Got the wind in my pockets, joy in
1:47:19 [music and singing] my seat, a
1:47:21 threadbear
1:47:23 full of [music] foolish dreams.
1:47:27 Can't find much, but I'll
1:47:29 [music and singing] never be poor.
1:47:32 Long as I've got laughter knocking at my
1:47:36 door.
1:47:40 [music]
1:47:41 Found a coin on the co.
1:47:45 >> Spend it on [music] tea. Spent it on tea
1:47:48 and the rest on rain.
1:47:51 Clouds took pity and paid [music] me
1:47:55 back.
1:47:57 With silver [singing] light in the sky
1:48:00 to unpack.
1:48:03 >> Got the wind in my pocket. Joy in my
1:48:08 seam. [music]
1:48:09 A threadbear [singing] code full of
1:48:12 foolish dreams.
1:48:14 [music] Can't buy much, but I'll never
1:48:18 be poor. [music]
1:48:20 Long as I've got [singing] laughter
1:48:23 knocking at my door.
1:48:27 >> Some folks gold, some hide their [music]
1:48:31 heart.
1:48:33 I spend mine [singing]
1:48:34 freely.
1:48:36 That's my art. If love's a currency,
1:48:39 [music]
1:48:40 then I'm set. I owe the world and I'm
1:48:45 not done yet. [music]
1:48:49 Got the wind in my pockets, joy in
1:48:52 [music] my seams.
1:48:55 Living on [singing] sunlight stitched
1:48:58 [music] from dreams.
1:49:00 If I fall, I'll fall with flare. [music]
1:49:05 The wind will catch me.
1:49:09 It's only fair.
1:49:18 Nice. Beautiful. All right, let's
1:49:21 download this bad boy.
1:49:24 [clears throat]
1:49:24 Got the wind in my pocket.
1:49:39 By the way, Udio just did a partner with
1:49:41 Universal Music Group. So, if anyone's
1:49:44 out there thinking that uh this music,
1:49:47 this generative music thing is just a
1:49:49 flash in the pan, no, it's not. Um and
1:49:52 and here's the thing.
1:49:55 There are already starting to be music
1:49:57 producers, existing music producers that
1:49:59 are using Sunno in their workflow and
1:50:01 using these other tools in their
1:50:02 workflow. That's not going to stop,
1:50:05 right? There's there's still going to be
1:50:07 a bunch of pissed-off musicians, but
1:50:10 more and more and more they will start
1:50:11 to migrate to using the new tools, and
1:50:13 it'll likely be some sort of hybrid
1:50:15 thing. So, anyway, let's upload this
1:50:19 here video. Let's let's upload it first
1:50:21 to the AI salon.
1:50:23 We'll put it right back into regulars.
1:50:27 New activity.
1:50:29 I got your flock of seagulls, Kyle.
1:50:32 [laughter]
1:50:38 Nice, Silver Fox. That's really solid.
1:50:41 Okay. Um,
1:50:45 what's this? Okay, this is good.
1:50:47 Beautiful. Working on getting PDF post.
1:50:49 Okay.
1:50:51 So, let's add photos. Add video.
1:51:02 Something went wrong. Please check your
1:51:04 internet connection.

1:57:59 It's It Wait, are you sure Corey
1:58:01 Sandler? Cuz look, it says your name is
1:58:04 Corey Sandler Pottery, but your tag is
1:58:06 just Corey Sandler.
1:58:11 Are you sure? Is this Cuz
1:58:14 Or did I spell it wrong? Corey Sandler.
1:58:17 It's not that complicated. No, I got it
1:58:20 right.
1:58:23 Champy's prostate is acting up. It
1:58:26 [laughter] is. He's He's just bored.
1:58:28 He's like He's like, "Dad, isn't it time
1:58:31 for your stupid show to be over? Come
1:58:33 on."
1:58:35 Um,
1:58:41 is this not you, Corey Sandler?
1:58:50 I think this is right.
1:58:53 I think it's right.
1:59:06 All right.
1:59:07 [clears throat]
1:59:13 All right. Well, whatever. Anyway, go to
1:59:15 Kyle Shannon Twitter and boost that
1:59:19 thing. Oh, and then I'm gonna go put
1:59:21 this on the salon.
1:59:23 [snorts and clears throat] Copy link.
1:59:26 Go to La Salon. Here is the video we
1:59:31 made tonight.
1:59:35 Paste.
1:59:53 Can you boost mine?
1:59:56 Uh, I don't know where yours is. Let's
1:59:59 see. It's I'm wrong. It's Corey saying,
2:00:03 "Okay, good." Okay, good. I listen I
2:00:07 felt like I was absolutely on the verge
2:00:09 of mansplaining your own Twitter handle
2:00:11 to you Corey. So so [laughter] but I
2:00:14 there wasn't a Corey Sandler pottery
2:00:16 there other than in your name but the
2:00:17 tag itself was Corey Sandler. So I
2:00:19 didn't see anything else. I didn't see
2:00:20 any other options. So I think that was
2:00:22 it. So I'm glad I'm glad that worked out
2:00:24 because [laughter]
2:00:29 All right everyone um I got to get out
2:00:31 of here. the voice. She is going and
2:00:34 hope you had fun tonight. Um I we we
2:00:38 didn't even get to a bunch of cool [ __ ]
2:00:40 that we can go look at this week, but
2:00:41 we'll go look at some other stuff. All
2:00:43 right. Is today Wednesday? Yeah, today's
2:00:45 Wednesday. So, tomorrow is not Friday.
2:00:49 Tomorrow's Thursday.
2:00:52 How to make high quality UGC videos. Um
2:00:55 start with a good idea.
2:00:58 um
2:01:00 start with storytelling. I've my my
2:01:03 company Story Vine like what we do is
2:01:05 high quality um user generated video.
2:01:08 It's all about story structure. Um
2:01:13 and if you can provide that to people,
2:01:15 you know, it makes it it makes it
2:01:16 easier. But um but are you talking about
2:01:20 are you talking about human beings being
2:01:22 in videos or like avatars and things
2:01:24 like that? because those are very
2:01:25 different things because those are
2:01:27 getting the the technologies there to do
2:01:29 them pretty good right now.
2:01:31 [clears throat]
2:01:40 All right. Thank you everybody. Joe,
2:01:41 thank you for doing Yes. Real humans.
2:01:44 Um, yeah, like I would basically say
2:01:46 highly templatized story frameworks is
2:01:49 the way to get if you need if you want a
2:01:51 lot of UGC content across people, you
2:01:54 need to have some sort of templated
2:01:55 framework. You can if you want you can
2:01:57 download the StoryVine app. There's free
2:01:59 templates in it. You can just play with
2:02:00 it and see what that's like. Um, you can
2:02:03 use those free templates as much as you
2:02:05 want. So go make a bunch of just have
2:02:07 people download the StoryVine app and
2:02:09 answer your questions. All right, cool.
2:02:11 Corey Sandler, this was special.
2:02:12 Awesome. Fantastic. So, that video is up
2:02:15 there. Go play that video. Go tag that
2:02:17 uh that expost. And I will see y'all
2:02:19 tomorrow. So, I hope you had fun
2:02:21 tonight. Peace out.
