0:01 Kyle, what's the best video tool I 0:03 should use? 0:05 Wrong question. Wrong question. Which is 0:07 the best AI? Which is the best LLM? 0:09 Which is the best video tool? 0:11 It doesn't matter. It literally doesn't 0:14 matter at this point. The tools are so 0:17 capable. 0:19 In fact, the tools are are beyond 0:23 capable enough for 99% of what any of us 0:27 are going to do with them. Period. End 0:29 of story. Now, you may have to tweak 0:32 them and do that sort of stuff, but 0:35 here's what's important. What's 0:36 important? The the most valuable AI tool 0:40 is the one you use. And it's a very 0:43 personal kind of thing. Let's I'll I'll 0:45 take a couple of examples in image 0:47 generation. There's a tool called 0:49 Ideoggram. 0:51 It's really good at, you know, putting 0:53 text on screen. It's really good just as 0:56 a tool, but it's also very very simple. 0:59 It's it's just a box. There's a few 1:01 options to it, but there's not much to 1:02 it. 1:04 Some people love that. I love that 1:06 because I don't want to have to think 1:07 too much. I just want to go make an 1:09 image. I want to knock it out. Boom. 1:10 Ideoggram's great. Other people might 1:14 look at something like Leonardo AI.AI, 1:18 which is like the cockpit of a 747. It's 1:20 built on top of stable diffusion. It's 1:22 got all these dials and switches and 1:23 knobs and you can do all this infinite 1:26 levels of control. Some people love 1:29 that. It it it really is a personal 1:31 choice. It's like picking a school for 1:33 your kid, right? You know, you the two 1:35 friends to the left and right of you 1:36 might love the school and you and your 1:38 kids hate the school. It's very very 1:40 personal. 1:42 So, how you figure out which ones to 1:44 use? You play. You play. Play with tools 1:48 that you have no intention of ever 1:50 using. If you're not a songwriter and 1:51 you don't really care about writing 1:53 songs, use the songwriting tools. Just 1:55 see what they can do. It will blow your 1:57 mind. Um, you know, make movies. Um, go 2:00 into the LLMs and if if the one of the 2:03 things you hate worst on the world in 2:05 the world is math and data analysis, go 2:08 into Chat GPT and upload a a uh an Excel 2:12 file full of numbers and ask it to 2:14 analyze it for you. It'll blow your 2:16 mind. So just play with these tools with 2:19 no expectation of using them. And then 2:22 at some point when you have a problem to 2:24 solve, think about the things that 2:26 you've played with and which of them 2:27 might help help you solve that problem. 2:30 And what will happen is a tool will 2:31 emerge as ah that's the tool I should 2:34 use to do that. So think about the why, 2:37 not the how, not the what. What are you 2:41 trying to solve? And then because you've 2:44 been playing and you're curious and 2:46 you're adventurous, you'll know exactly 2:48 what to do. All right? So, there are no 2:51 best tools. Best tool is the one you 2:53 use. Go play. All right. Hope this 2:57 helps.
