1. 0:00Love. [Music]
2. 0:28Ow. [Music]
3. 1:09It really breaks my heart see a dear old friend go down to that one out place again. Do you know the sound
4. 1:24of a closing door? You heard that sound somewhere before? Do you wonder if she knows you any
5. 1:44[Music] song? Good evening, good people. Happy Wednesday. What's happening? What's going down? What's shaking?
6. 1:59went to a lovely event tonight at the ID345 uh clubhouse, I'm going to call it, here in Denver. It was a uh it was a uh
7. 2:15a media a vibe media show and tell basically meetup where people just showing stuff that they've made like images and songs and videos and
8. 2:28[ __ ] like that. So, I showed off um I showed off um before the sun before the lights come on, the the little carnival song we made
9. 2:44the other night, I showed off to Kill You for a Dollar, that video. And then I showed off Sydney, the Sydney musical.
10. 2:54So, it was all music. And then tonight, uh, VO3.1 came out. So, we're going to be looking at at video stuff. We'll be
11. 3:03playing with video stuff. [Music] If you're asking if you're late, you're not as late as we are. We're uh we're 34
12. 3:15minutes late because I had a little event. I had a little spontaneous event. I forgot my fluids again. What the [ __ ]
13. 3:21is going on with that? Oh, please.
14. 3:43Where's my Where did I put it? Oh, there it is.
15. 4:02All right, drink is procured. It was not in the kitchen where I thought it was. It was on a dresser. Oh, man. All right,
16. 4:14there we go. Here's the black bar. Boom. Everyone on Tik Tok is happy. Cam's bars. We puppy cam on this feed. We really do.
17. 4:32Are you going to sing? [Music] Woohoo.
18. 4:50[Music] Well, I heard there was a secret David played and it pleased the Lord. Hang on. I don't see any comments. Oh,
19. 5:03there it just came in. Retesh Patel. Oh, you're back. I was never away. Was I away? When was I away? I'm back. I'm I'm here.
20. 5:15Sunny Yun, what's happening? So many announcements I can't keep up. Welcome to the club. Um went went to a Google ADK demo.
21. 5:27Okay. ADK or ADR? I can't see from here. The thing's weird. Um their version of chat GPT instant checkout called agent payment protocol
22. 5:40and now V3 3.1. Actually it's sunny. It's not V3. It's V3.1. Come on. Come on, man. Um, thank God for AI Learning Labs.
23. 5:55You're the sweetest. That's very sweet. Hey, retest. What's happening? Um, welcome everybody. Welcome, welcome, welcome. Um, yeah. So,
24. 6:05this was a this was an interesting thing. So for the AI salon, so a little bit of history of the AI salon. I started the AI salon the week
25. 6:15that chat JPT came out. And for the first year or so, we had in-person meetings here in Denver that we also broadcast online.
26. 6:26And about a year in, I realized that not a lot of people were coming back. They would come and then they wouldn't return. [Music]
27. 6:39And and what I realized in in looking at the event itself was I was hosting and managing a Zoom call. So I basically invited people to a big
28. 6:54fancy conference room where they watched me run a Zoom call. So it it was not the most compelling format.
29. 7:05So I canceled it and we went all we went all remote. So So we've been remote since then. And one of the things that's striking me
30. 7:16is that I think inerson events are actually really important. I think they're important for the salon. I think
31. 7:23that as AI um gets more prevalent and and disrupts work and workers and people get laid off and [ __ ] like that that
32. 7:34that connecting with other people is is going to increase in importance and it's going to increase in value. So, I want
33. 7:40to bring back in-person events in in in in the salon. And so, I want to model it here in Denver because here here's the
34. 7:49other thing that I've realized is that the AI salon's now three years old. So, every city has lots and lots of AI
35. 7:55groups, right? But the AI salon is different than a lot of AI groups. A lot of AI groups talk about the AI and they
36. 8:01talk about the tools and they talk about embeddings and tokens and and and you know the technology and and the salon
37. 8:07and the AI learning lab um are really about like how are we using these tools and what's the future of work and how do
38. 8:14you how do you learn to feed your prompt like a producer. So so you're the one that has the idea and then AI is at the
39. 8:21service of your idea, right? And so could the AI salon be an outlet of a different kind of meeting for all these
40. 8:30other AI groups in any given city? So that's the idea. That's the that's the concept. I haven't quite nailed what I wanted to be yet,
41. 8:38but there's this guy in Denver named Danny Newman, and he's he's uh he he just uh sold his interest or or gave up
42. 8:45his interest in the Mercury Lounge, but he's also got Brother's Bar. He's an he's an entrepreneur and a and a
43. 8:51restaurant tour and just a really sweet guy and a really smart guy. And so he's got this new space called ID345,
44. 8:59which if you look at it, it says ideas 345, right? Like the number letters if you're hip. Ah, ID345 is the name of the
45. 9:07space. And it's just this remarkable space of like old vintage couches, like all these little seating areas. It's in
46. 9:16like an old corrugated metal building that was like a machine shop or something like that. Um, and so I'm talking to him about us partnering
47. 9:26together and that becoming kind of the the Denver um home base for the AI salon. Um, and then that's where we're
48. 9:33going to design meetings and and you know figure out how to migrate those to cities all over this fine land of ours.
49. 9:42So anyway, I'm super excited about that. Retesh Patel, hope all is amazing in your world. Well, Retesh, you know, you know how it goes.
50. 9:55Be careful what you wish for, it is amazing. Listen, stuff's still going on. We're still fighting the good fight with Story Vine. Um
51. 10:04um challenging as it may be, um we are we've brought on some really kick-ass professional people for the AI salon.
52. 10:14like we're really leveling up the AI salon. In fact, Brandon, if you would throw up the URL for the the AI salon.
53. 10:21Um, Retesh, if you haven't seen it in a while, go go check out our new website. We've now got a brand new website that's
54. 10:26been completely overhauled and redesigned and it's got live feeds from the community. And then if you want to
55. 10:32join the community, if you haven't joined the community, go join the community. And that's gotten an overhaul
56. 10:37as well. And we've got all sorts of things planned. We're going to like take the rest of this quarter to basically
57. 10:43just clean up all the mess and 2026 is going to be absolutely remarkable. So, if you haven't joined the AI salon, go join the AI salon. Um,
58. 10:56for for a lot of reasons. One of them is it is a community that is remarkably generous and remarkably the the the right word is loving. It's
59. 11:09it's a it's a it's a community of people that no matter where you are with AI, if you're just getting started with it, if
60. 11:16you're absolutely baller with it, um, no one really cares about that. Everyone's just like, "What are you working on?
61. 11:22Like, here's what I'm working on. How do you do this? How do you do that? Oh, here's how you do this. Here's what I
62. 11:26figured out." There's just there's a generosity and a spirit within the AI salon that is unlike a lot of groups that I've
63. 11:34been a part of. Um, and you know, Sunny, you just made the comment like, you know, I go away for a week and I how do I keep up with this
64. 11:46stuff? You can't keep up with it. The only way you can really keep up with things is to be around people that are curious about
65. 11:55this stuff and figuring it out and they're looking at it from different points of view. Retes, you'll remember this.
66. 12:02you know, the the Worldwide Web Artist Consortium in the in the mid 90s in 94, 95, 96, nobody knew what was going on with the
67. 12:11web. Nobody knew HTML or what UX was or UI or just anything. Everyone was trying to figure it out. And it was it was only
68. 12:23in being around people who were looking at these technologies from lots of different points of views that all of us
69. 12:30in New York that were part of that group. We leveled up our game really fast and really powerfully, right? And
70. 12:38that's the whole idea here and in the AI salon is let's hang out with people. Let's be in the conversation about AI
71. 12:45while this these technologies are literally like we're in the primordial soup right now. It's funny, you know.
72. 12:53Um, another thing, Riches, you'll remember is like people always talk the they're talking now about the hype of
73. 12:58AI. Oh, it's overhyped. You're in a bubble. It's like the dot bubble. No, it's not like the.com bubble. We're not
74. 13:05even close to the bubble part of AI. Not even close. How do I know that? because most real human beings don't give a [ __ ]
75. 13:16about chat GBT. A lot of human beings have never even heard of it. Like like 10 months ago, there was a
76. 13:24report that came out. 45% of Americans had never even heard of chat GPT in that report. It's like a McKenzie report or something like that.
77. 13:33And then if you really dig into the numbers like of all the people like, "Oh yeah, I use chat GPT. I use it like once
78. 13:39a month." Yeah, I use it. I use it. Sure, I use it. Yeah. Every once a week or so. Yeah. Mhm. They're not using chat
79. 13:47GPT. They've used it once. They went there and they did a Google search in it and it gave them a shitty answer and
80. 13:52they're like, "Oh, I'm not very impressed with AI." I don't know why they're all Charles Nelson Riley. You have to be a Gen Xer
81. 14:02to get that joke. Anyway, um we ain't even close to the bubble yet. Not even close to it. We're like in 1996. Metaphorically,
82. 14:15the bubble didn't really start till like 1998, 999. It burst in 2000, April of 2000. [Music]
83. 14:38[Music] You and I get on Sunday morning here at home. Sky's blue and the coffee is strong.
84. 14:53It's true. So anyway, okay, let's get started. We probably have a lot to talk about, a lot to do. So if you're new here, my name is
85. 15:04Kyle Shannon. This is the AI learning lab. If you're like, you don't seem like a professor, you you would be correct. Sea slug of
86. 15:14doom. One of my senior bosses was having a seizure because of our implementations. Oh boy. AI. Yes. Yes. Senior bosses. Uh well,
87. 15:28there's a couple of things going on. So, senior bosses are are going to come in a couple of flavors. Again, this is going
88. 15:35to be familiar to to to all you early worldwide Webbers out there. You're going to have some senior bosses
89. 15:42that are just in denial. And the and they're going to be in denial for a while and they'll just [ __ ] whatever.
90. 15:48They'll deal with it when it hits them in the face. And you can have some se senior managers that Yeah, we we got AI.
91. 15:57We got we got a group for that. we've been doing it for 30, 40 years, right? That that are that have the hubris of
92. 16:04someone that has a clue but actually don't understand what AI is. And and and that there's actually a massive
93. 16:13distinction between classic AI, the thing they've had for 30 years, and generative AI, the stuff that if if you
94. 16:19sort of take the the the launch of chat GPT marks the beginning of the of the generative AI era. It's it's a fundamentally different thing.
95. 16:28Um, and then then you've got bosses that are like kind of aware that it's coming. They kind of need to deal with it and
96. 16:35they're just discovering that amongst their employees, people have gone rogue, right? They're um Ethan Mullik called
97. 16:44them the secret cyborgs, right? The people that were secretly using AI off to the side. And then within those
98. 16:51people there are people who are probably implementing like technical solutions without really good data cleanliness and
99. 16:59data privacy and security. So so there are also some bosses now that are like what the [ __ ] is happening
100. 17:07and then there's a very small amount of bosses out there that are like they actually have a clue. They're using it
101. 17:13themselves. They're understanding what it is and they're going all in and they're saying to our staff, "Get your
102. 17:18[ __ ] together. Get your [ __ ] together. Learn AI and we're going to support you and we're going to train you."
103. 17:25Sunny, you retest. We should connect. You absolutely should. Um, one of the things we like to do here in the AI learning lab is a little
104. 17:35matchmaking. I think you two should reconnect and go off and do some cool [ __ ] Beautiful. Um, we love this stuff. [Music]
105. 17:48Summarize some meeting notes for them. Listen, this is so I was I was talking to Ret, it's funny that you're here. Um,
106. 17:55you remember Sumin Sumn Chia? I was talking to him today. So, we're working on putting together a workshop.
107. 18:02Um, and and one of the things that I want to design into the workshop is kind of a two-headed beast for to get people
108. 18:11to understand what generative AI is in the context of a business where the first half of the beast is you take one
109. 18:19of their existing processes and you, you know, automate it or make it more efficient. So like take meeting notes
110. 18:26and turn them into, you know, into summarized meeting notes and they'll be like, "Oh my god, that's just amazing."
111. 18:33And and why I want to split that away from this other thing is because whenever there's a new technology
112. 18:41historically, what that technology has done is just make the existing [ __ ] we do more efficient. Very rarely is that
113. 18:50technology some actual new thing. It's just some more efficient way to do it. So when people first start out using AI,
114. 18:57they always start with, okay, let's let's automate our email writing. That'll be that'll be radical. We can
115. 19:03write emails so much faster. I'll tell you what, you know what we could do? We could put this email generation
116. 19:09capability inside some sort of automation like Zappy. Yes. Like Zapier. I've heard of that. Yes. We put it in there and
117. 19:18then someone just puts in a topic and out comes an email written in our style. Fantastic. Right? That's where they
118. 19:25start and like they think that's the innovation. So what I want to do is I want to like go in and kind of blow
119. 19:30their mind with did you know that AI can do this and this and this and they're like ah so cool that's so amazing. And
120. 19:38then I want to bring out the bomb and like say, "Now imagine if we actually re-imagined how your business worked or imagine if we if we
121. 19:50took this process and and rather than trying to make that old process more efficient, what if we just completely
122. 19:56redesigned this process and then go over and use some some badass chat GPT prompt or other to just completely show them
123. 20:07that there might be a whole new business model that they might want to consider. Um, you know, not as a way to scare them
124. 20:14away, but as a way to say, um, you got to get on it, right? Because if you're not, your competitors are, right? And if
125. 20:22your competitors are thinking like this, how long is it going to be before they're knocking at your door? So,
126. 20:26anyway, that's pretty cool. Okay. Um, Denver area. Yes, I am in the Denver area. I am in North Denver.
127. 20:42North Denver. The Sunnyside neighborhood. Sunnyside. Sunnyside. Okay. So, what are we going to do? Let's go. So, VO3.1 launched
128. 20:54today. I had a very busy day, so I've not had a chance to play with [ __ ] Um, producer Brandon was at MCON all
129. 21:02day. Said he had a really good day. He's going to give us I I asked him to give us a little report today. He's a little
130. 21:08sleepy. It's a long day. Um so he's he's got today and tomorrow at MCON and then probably I don't know uh the next day um
131. 21:16he'll come up and give us a report of you know what he experienced, what he learned, who he met, all that sort of
132. 21:21stuff. So really cool stuff. Um and Gwyn is there. So that's super cool. Um what am I gonna do here? Where am I going to go? Let me do
133. 21:35[Music] I guess I'll go there. Okay. All right, good people. So, where we're going to go
134. 21:53is we're going to head to flow.google. And so this is their flow. This is like their video editor tool.
135. 22:07And I have I have a ultra subscription here. So this allows us to do um a decent amount of video generation.
136. 22:18I also realized I'm in the creative partner program for Runway and for Halo Miniax. Um and I haven't played with
137. 22:26them in a while. So over the next couple of weeks, I want to get back into playing with those. I I I've said this I
138. 22:32said this a few weeks back. Um I think that no matter what business you're in, no, no matter what your expertise is,
139. 22:47I think it's probably worth all of our while to understand what these video tools make possible. Um, Runway's been hinting
140. 22:58for a while now that what they're about to drop is a world builder and we've got things like World Labs, I think it's called, that that has
141. 23:09this, you know, image to 3D world generator. It's janky right now and not quite there. Um, but I just have this sneaking suspicion
142. 23:22that these video tools are going to be gateways into worldbuilding tools, which is going to lead into game building tools. But it's
143. 23:32like I just have this feeling it's going to be a new way to make images, a new way to make information
144. 23:40graphics. Like there's just all sorts of [ __ ] coming. So, so I'm probably going to spend the next month or so going a
145. 23:47bit deeper in the video world than I have um just because I just have instincts. I have instincts about what's
146. 23:55coming and this this is feeling more and more like like an important communication tool um that it's in our interest to learn. Okay,
147. 24:08so Ericana would love to see it. I know I talked too much. Is V3 nano nano banana advancement? No. Well, I don't know. Um,
148. 24:22so I think they have text to image in here, don't they? No, they don't. Okay. So, so what what 3.1 has now.
149. 24:31So, we're going to do landscape. We're going to do two outputs. V3.1 fast. VO3.1 quality 100 credits for quality
150. 24:46fast. Zero credits for ultra subscribers. Cool. And then V2, 10 credits. Oh, that's funny. And 100 credits for V2. Interesting. All right.
151. 24:57So, this isn't going to cost us any credits. Although I will do I'll I'll do a couple of generations here and then we'll um we'll uh
152. 25:08we'll do them in both in both things for sure. It leveled us all up. By the way, there's a Mercury Lounge in Denver.
153. 25:15Yeah, there is. Is it a New York City transplant? No, it's No, it's the Mercury Lounge in Denver. A bunch of
154. 25:25like radio had played there before they were big. there there's like a bunch of bands that played there before they were
155. 25:31big and they were going to shut it down and this guy Danny Newman um bought it to save it and uh and he I think he ran
156. 25:39it for three or four years um and then he just he just basically transferred it to another management group right now.
157. 25:45But it's it's still it's still kicking. It's still kicking. He said he was a little disappointed that the like the
158. 25:52Denver the neighborhood community did not really support it like he thought they would. Which is kind of a drag,
159. 25:59right? He comes in to kind of save the you know save the neighborhood thing and then people are like, "Yeah, whatever.
160. 26:07I got to go watch the AI learning lab. I'm not going to your stupid bar." Oh man. Oh yeah. So, is is the Walmart thing
161. 26:24live or did they just make the announcement, Brandon? Do you know? Because I know they made an announcement.
162. 26:33Announce announcement. Yeah. But this is a big deal. Walmart cut a deal with Open AAI now. and and OpenAI just launched apps inside
163. 26:47inside chat GPT. So, we're going to see a Walmart app inside ChatGpt. So, that's that's coming. But, I think what's
164. 26:53interesting I this was not my thinking. Um, but there was a uh a Twitter post that that kind of made the call and I
165. 27:04thought, "Oh, yeah, that's it." The reason these companies are announcing deals with Open AI is that everyone's anything Open AI does gets
166. 27:14talked about in the press. So, so these brands that want a little a little boost to the old uh the old bottom line, a
167. 27:23little shareholder little shareholder kick in the ass announce a deal with with Open AI. So, so Walmart just did
168. 27:30that. So, I don't know what that's that means. They get access to [ __ ] They're going to be in the store sooner than
169. 27:36anyone else. Who knows? But that's coming. Okay. So, a couple of things that we can do now in um in VO3.1
170. 27:47is you can do start and end frames and you can also do ingredients. So, ingredients are things like you can have
171. 27:54um you know a a picture of a person, a picture of a dress and a picture of a purse. And then you can say, "Put this
172. 28:02dress on the person and have them holding the purse." And you can do that kind of stuff. And then you can also
173. 28:07have it talk. So that was a thing I did before was talk. So let's let's do a couple of things. Let's am I sharing my
174. 28:15screen? I am. Let me jump over to chat GBT for a second. and we're going to go. I need some ideas for a video prompt for VO
175. 28:31three. Um, give me a good eight second story with three shots, an interesting character
176. 28:49uh, and scene and dialogue. Describe everything and give me give me
177. 29:0520 prompts of unique scenes. Okay. So, what I'm doing here is choosing not to use my brain. I could
178. 29:20just go into VO3 and think, but I don't want to do that. The thinking is exhausting. To Sunny's point, I can't keep up with this [ __ ]
179. 29:30Exactly. So, just have chat GBT write your [ __ ] The time travelers coffee. Um, Goldfish Fortune Carnival Goldfish
180. 29:40booth at Dusk. Oh, that's because we just did our carnival thing. Let's do that one. We just did a carnival song
181. 29:46and chat GPT remembered that because it's swell. All right, here's flow. So, we'll share this tab instead. We're
182. 29:53going to do text to video. So, we're going to pop that in there. Beautiful. Now, actually, what I'm going to do is I'm going to say, um,
183. 30:02maybe I'll do it with nano nano banana. Um, nano. No. Uh, we need Gemini. gemini.google.com. And we're going to make an image. Wait,
184. 30:18new image generation just got better. Oh, video generation just got better with with VO3.1. And if Oh, wait. I got to share this
185. 30:27tab. Hang on. Video generation just got better with V3.1. Try now. Oh, and okay. So, you can do this inside.
186. 30:38Wait, where do you find that? In here. Yeah, create videos with VO. So, you can do VO 3.1 inside Gemini as well. So,
187. 30:47flow.google or gemini.google.com. And actually, now that I think about it, I don't think you can make images in
188. 30:57Flow. Oh, but you can edit them together. That's kind of interesting. Huh. All right. Well, whatever. Let's go here.
189. 31:09Or no, let's go here and and say um make me a start and end frame for this video prompt.
190. 31:24Oops, I didn't put in the video prompt. Could you please share the video prompt? Hey, idiot. Hi, my name my name Kyle Shannon and I
191. 31:40make good the good AI teach you good on the AI on nightly. Some people have a way with words. Other people um
192. 31:59not have way. Name that comedian. Name that comedian. You Gen Xers. If you can't name that comedian, we didn't hang out together in high
193. 32:11school. You teach good nightly. Thank you, Side Hustle. Mimi. Oh, lordy. Chat GBT's gone all
194. 32:26proprietary. Wait, what? What the [ __ ] just happened here? Visual audio. What? Inframe. No. Oh, let me turn on create images. No. Make the
195. 32:4216 by9 wide image of each breaking. [Laughter]
196. 32:56Gareth is here. Yo yo yo yo. What up? Gareth was shaken. It made a square.
197. 33:12I can't I I just could Could could could one of the frontier model companies please please hire a liberal arts major? Please.
198. 33:29Please. cuz they'll tell you the importance of being able to describe the aspect ratio of an image. If you're making a video
199. 33:40that has an aspect ratio, it it's not hard. It's math. It It's 16 by 9 or it's 9 by 16 or it's
200. 33:553x4 or 4x3. It's math. You people are good at math, but you don't. Okay, hang on. Aspect underscore ratio
201. 34:12equals quote 16 colon 9. Why do I have to write code to get it to make a wide image? Why? Why can I not just say wide image? Why can I
202. 34:25not just say 16 by9 wide image? Like you you can understand Sanskrit. You could understand make it wider. [Laughter] [Music]
203. 34:40Please remake these images as wide images and remove the word escape.
204. 34:55Escape from the opening. I imag.
205. 35:10So Gareth, irregular, you know, weirdo like all of us, made a Sunno song and it got picked up by the Mariners baseball team.
206. 35:24And and oh good god. Oh good god. And they played they played his song at the at the game tonight. That's [ __ ]
207. 35:35awesome. Hallelujah. There you go. Gemini does not like 16 by9. It it Here's what it here's what Apologies for
208. 35:45the oversight on the aspect ratio and the text removal. You're absolutely right. Here are the revised images both
209. 35:52in 16 by9. If I look at this, I don't know. I'm no mathematician, but that's looking an awful lot like one colon one, not 16 colon 9.
210. 36:10Who did I talk to? I was talking to uh Michael. What's Michael's last name from? From from um from video flow. What
211. 36:18the [ __ ] his last name? Anyway, he was telling me like Nano Banana is changing everything. And then
212. 36:25he said the the hack that they found to incorporate Nano Banana into their video tool, they basically have to serve up a
213. 36:34gray image. That's the right aspect ratio. It's the only way they can get the right aspect ratio. They can't prompt it.
214. 36:45It's like when you tried to get chat EBD to count to 100 in voice mode. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Or or how many yards ours
215. 36:51are in Strawberry, right? Like they'll fix this. But it's like Jesus Christ. Like honest to God, [ __ ] hire some
216. 36:58liberal arts majors, hire some filmmakers, hire some [ __ ] artists, engineers. STEM is not the only [ __ ] valuable thing on the planet.
217. 37:12There's the A part. art, humanities, human beings, just have one of them there that's got like balls. They're not testicles, but
218. 37:26has like the willingness to tell you no, do not launch that until you go fix that. Well, well, technically, uh people
219. 37:34if if they what they understand is the the the last uh uploaded image of course with the with uh is we will pull the
220. 37:41aspect ratio from the app. People don't know that. Just go fix it. Get out of my office. I've got video games to play.
221. 37:54Good lord, people. Take that pin. I was told there would be no math. Exactly. Exactly.
222. 38:09I'm a side hustle mimi. I shouldn't have to be doing math and code to make pretty pictures. Okay, let's go look at our video. I'm
223. 38:21exhausted. I'm just exhausted. Okay, here's our first VO3.1 text to image model. Many things are still valuable, but teaching apparently
224. 38:36is not. Looks like 9 by9 or 16 by 16. Huh. Okay, let's see if we've got audio and if we've got uh a nonshitty video. So,
225. 38:54just looking at it as a still image, it looks decent. Their hands are not freaky. There's too many goldfish. But all right,
226. 39:06>> you're the one that'll get me out of here. [Music] You're the one that'll get me out of here. >> So, that's a that's a mistake that Sora
227. 39:19has, too. I assume that's supposed to be the fish talking and uh the girls talking. So, that's one of them. Let's
228. 39:27hear Let's see this. You're the one. It also put in a two two to one aspect ratio. So, notice it's it's letter boxed or
229. 39:37whatever it's called when it's top and bottom black bars. I forget what that's called. All right, let's see this one.
230. 39:47You're the one that'll get me out of here. >> You're the one that'll get me out of here.
231. 40:01So, oh lord, I think Tik Tok may ban us for life for this one. Oh lordy. So, first the woman goes from being black to being white.
232. 40:17She comes in on the other side of the frame and then the carney the carney goes in to lay one on her.
233. 40:32Oh man, that that is uh you just can't do that. It it cuts right before the kiss. She looks young. Better get that off the
234. 40:47screen. Yeah, exactly. Puke Rainbow's creative. Okay. All right. So So one of the things that that we talk
235. 40:58about in here, we've talked about for years, embrace the jank. Where we are right now with all AI tools, every AI
236. 41:04tool, there's not a single exception right now. They're all janky. They're all all sorts of [ __ ] up now
237. 41:12from where we were a year ago. Like the video one year ago was like the horrible Will Smith, you know, spaghetti morphing
238. 41:21into his face. Like we've come a long long way. And you can get these things to do remarkable things, but that's
239. 41:27pretty shitty. Let's go get Let's go get How do I want to do this? Let's go get two different start and end frames for midjourney
240. 41:40and and come in here and do and do image to video with a start and an end frame. Midjourney midjourney. Midjourney. Midjourney. Midjourney.
241. 41:55Yeah, exactly. A year ago we were pumped about text editing with Dcript. Yeah, exactly. And it's like Yeah. remember
242. 42:01when I was the first one that came out that did text well and now like they all do text well. It's just this is
243. 42:11there there won't be a point where having the AI learning lab doesn't actually make sense, right? There's
244. 42:16going to be a point at which these tools are all good enough that you can literally just use any tool and get any
245. 42:23result. We ain't there yet, right? And part of the part of the art of AI right now is just kind of playing enough to
246. 42:32kind of understand you have to navigate around the imperfections and you have to, you know, jump between multiple
247. 42:40tools and and things like that. So that's just where we are right now. It's neither good nor bad. It just is what it is. Create excellence,
248. 42:52including spelling it correctly. Oh, these are kind of cool. Maybe we'll take one of these images. That one's kind of neat.
249. 43:12What if we took [Music] What if we took like this image and this image and do those as a Oh, did I not change
250. 43:28my [ __ ] tab? Sorry about that. We're going to take this image and this image and we're going to do those as a
251. 43:36start and an end frame. And then here's the cowboy things I was talking about that were kind of cool. Yeah, maybe we'll just take one of
252. 43:44these. This is a cool one. We'll grab this one. So, we'll do this as a start frame only. Let's Let's do a new
253. 43:53project, shall we? So, we don't so we don't have to watch the carney kissing the young woman. Good lord. Okay. So, we're going to do
254. 44:05frames to video. Let's go grab the cowboy.
255. 44:20Okay. Did Did we get it? Yes. Okay. Um, cowboy walks toward the camera
256. 44:37as camera as a car passes by and someone yells out
257. 44:52the window. Get yells out the window. Um um get back on your horse.
258. 45:10[Laughter] You big dummy. We're going to make a video of cowboy bullying.
259. 45:28Oh, wait. I didn't I didn't share the tab. Anyway, that's the prompt. So So cowboy walks toward the camera, car
260. 45:35passes, and someone yells out the window. Get back on your horse, you big dummy. All right, so that's that one.
261. 45:41Okay, so now let's do a start and end frame. So we're going to do the start frame is going to be the spoon image. and crop and save.
262. 45:56All right. And then the end frame is going to be this image. And we're going to give it no prompt. We're just going to crop and save.
263. 46:16Do I have to give it a prompt? I do. I'm going to go morph morph in an interesting way. There there's a miss. You should be able to
264. 46:29just have a start and end frame and not give it a [ __ ] prompt. Uh morph in an interesting way. Oh, that was pretty fast. Interesting way.
265. 46:41All right. Go. All right. So, there's that. Let's go listen to our cowboy. Add to scene. All right. Are you all still seeing
266. 46:53this? What is he using? Um, this is flow. I'm in flow.g Google. This is the VO3.1, which you can also do VO3.1 in. Can't
267. 47:07see the window. We're still on the Carney. Listen, I know Brandon, producer Brandon's very sleepy tonight, so he he missed a couple of
268. 47:17shot collars for me. >> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. >> Oh, the cowboy said it. That was pretty good.
269. 47:33>> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. [Laughter] I like it.
270. 47:48>> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. >> Brandon, sorry. Writing an article. It's It's totally okay. I'm just like
271. 48:00switching between tabs like a man madman and talking as if I've switched tabs, but I haven't. Um, so that's actually an interesting um
272. 48:14that's actually an interesting bug of these models that they they have the wrong person do the talking. Let me let
273. 48:21me see if I can change that prompt. We're going to reuse the prompt. Cowboy walks toward the camera as a car passes.
274. 48:30Period. Period. Then I'll go someone in the car. in the car. In the passing car,
275. 48:45leans out the window and yells, "Get back on your horse, you big dummy."
276. 49:03The cowboy keeps walking unflinched. All right, let's see if we can prompt this a little more betterer.
277. 49:19Oh, and here's our here's our uh our spoon morphs. Tik Tok just alerted me that you were live. A bit passive aggressive.
278. 49:32Tap tap tap. Thank you, Side Hustle Mimi. All right, screen share, please. Okay, so let's see if this is any good
279. 49:39or interesting and and what the audio is. That's pretty cool.
280. 50:06Here's one of the mystical, magical things about AI. And and I'll tell you what, if I were in motion graphics, if I had
281. 50:16if I had the patience to be in motion graphics, I don't. If I were in motion graphics right now, I would hate AI for
282. 50:25two for two reasons. Two two two reasons. one because it's like, "Holy [ __ ] I've been doing this for 30 years and they're
283. 50:34not going to need to hire me anymore." Which that's just [ __ ] insane. It's just it's where we are right now. That's
284. 50:40where everyone is right now. And then the second one is people that don't know motion graphics like me. Like I I I appreciate when [ __ ]
285. 50:56moves, but I don't think in terms of layers and when you move [ __ ] and what you do, but this relatively intelligently chose,
286. 51:09right, the center spoon to to shatter to reveal that half te pattern to mask out the edges of that image and
287. 51:25keep the spoons in the center and some of the foreground. Have them go to the center of that square.
288. 51:35Then have two of those things rotate and two of those things not rotate. Right. Right. So like those two are rotating
289. 51:44and the ones on the right are not. If I were a mo motion graphics person or if I were a client, I'd go, "Hey, love
290. 51:55that video on that last frame. Could you make those other things animate?" And the motion graphics person would be
291. 52:05like, "Actually, no, I can't because this is [ __ ] AI because you think everything can be done instantly now and
292. 52:12you're only paying me a nickel. I don't have the budget or the hours to actually go do anything that you're asking for.
293. 52:24But people who are just AI native people are just going to be like, "Oh yeah, I did that thing. That's cool enough."
294. 52:30Right? And it's going to be fascinating because the the AI native people are going to they're going to get good
295. 52:39at kind of vibe creative where it's just like I sort of wanted to do a thing that's good enough. and they're going to be able to move
296. 52:47really fast through that. And then they're going to have no shame about if a client goes, I want those other two
297. 52:53things to animate. Ah, I can't do that. I can start over. Um, puke rainbows creative. Yeah. Oh, I work in After Effects a lot, but AI
298. 53:06prompting drives me crazy because of inconsistency. Exactly. The the This is the thing. Th this is a there is going
299. 53:14to be a generational divide. When did I hear this? The the first time this really struck me. Oh, it it was when we were It was one
300. 53:27night in here. We were doing songs in Sunno. And someone came in and they said it it might have even been in my comments to
301. 53:35one of my videos, but but someone basically said, you know, this isn't real music because musicians can't
302. 53:43control it down to the track level, right? They can't control it down to the note level like you can in a DAW in in a
303. 53:51digital audio workstation. Um, and my my reply to that was that's a different market, right? This is creating
304. 54:03songs with an AI tool like Sununo is not about control. Now, what's fascinating about Sunno in particular
305. 54:13is they've got Timberland, the producer Timberland is, you know, is one of their adviserss. They just launched a DAW. So
306. 54:21in Sunno right now, you can take one of the songs it produces, split it into up to 12 tracks, and now you can go in and
307. 54:30edit and and sort of prompt new tracks into the song. So you actually have a level of control in Sunno you didn't
308. 54:36have before. Um, so it's going to go one of two ways. software like After Effects is just going to become riddled with AI where
309. 54:46you'll have sort of control if you want it but generation if you want it. I think Adobee's between a rock and a hard
310. 54:55place with AI right now. They they're trying not to piss off the creative community and so because of that they haven't
311. 55:04trained their model on copywritten work and because of that their models suck, right? And also they don't want their models to be so
312. 55:14good that you actually don't need to use After Effects or Photoshop or Premiere Pro, right? But like the midjourneys of
313. 55:24the world and the and the like all these different companies, the video companies of the world, they're all coming after
314. 55:30Adobe. They're like, "Well, wait a minute. Why do you need to go into this professional software and pay them
315. 55:36[ __ ] $500 a month or whatever the [ __ ] extortion fee is that they charge for their creative suite and and
316. 55:44have to learn all this complicated software and take a [ __ ] decade to learn all this software and you could
317. 55:49just go make me a movie with a cowboy in it which again I know is going to piss off the creatives but it's like
318. 56:01this is a new way of creating content and and there are going to be professionals my my co-host in the AI
319. 56:08salon Liz Miller Gersfeld is a really good example of this. She was a producer in the agency world for 20 years
320. 56:16and she quit like three years ago and started teaching herself AI because she's like, I want to figure out what
321. 56:22this stuff is. And now she's fullon being hired as effectively a consultant with traditional production shops
322. 56:32because they don't know what the [ __ ] to do. They don't know what's going on. They're not paying attention to this.
323. 56:36Their directors are like, "I'll never touch AI." and their clients are like, "Could you do some of that AI [ __ ]
324. 56:42because I hear it's cheaper." So, so we're in a we're in a weird quandry right now. DIY video is great if
325. 56:50that's what you want, but less control. I think people are going to start dropping Creative Cloud. I don't use
326. 56:56After Effects. Oh, if I didn't use After Effects. Yeah, I'm the same way with with Photoshop and Illustrator to a
327. 57:02degree, but it's mostly Photoshop. Yeah, I've got the Creative Suite. Like I occasionally use Adobe Audition. I
328. 57:10occasionally use Premiere, but like I hate video editing so much I started a company to not to automate video
329. 57:17editing. So my company, Storyvine, is a is an automated video storytelling platform because I just I have ADD. I
330. 57:25can't stand editing. It just it takes too long. It takes too much paying attention. I just don't care. Um Mary
331. 57:33Mary wants you to post the spoons. All right, let's look at the second spoon video. We haven't even seen the second one yet.
332. 57:40>> I like that sound. >> Wow, that one's so good.
333. 57:55That's kind of crazy, huh? And with After Effects, you could actually meld those two together, couldn't you? You could take this the
334. 58:10second half of this one right there. Actually, you know what? Let's do that.
335. 58:26Download. Oh, original size. Download original size. All right, let me go change how I'm sharing. [Music]
336. 58:42Share screen. Entire screen. Here we go. IP wants to know the spoon prompt. The spoon prompt was just well so this the spoon prompt miss
337. 58:56it it was it's not about the prompt. It's about a start frame and an end frame. So the the start frame is the
338. 59:02spoon image. the end frame is that and then the the prompt was I didn't want to give it any prompt but it it made me
339. 59:09write something so I just wrote morphs in an interesting way. Um but I want to go grab the videos and see if I can grab the last
340. 59:22if I can in Let me see. How do I want to do this? I know how I want to do it. Okay, so we're going to open both of these. So this one,
341. 59:32this one we want after it gets all that. Read the sticky mind your black bars. >> Oh yeah, thank you.
342. 59:51Movie and irregulars. Tik Tok pin. Oh, tic that pin showed strange stranger my baseball movie from 2 tonight in pub was
343. 59:59blown away. Oh, that's great. Corey, when I said I made it, I I I'm telling you, man, it's like one of my great joys
344. 1:00:10in life is is um blowing people's minds with AI where they're just like, you know, I I'll tell you what, here's
345. 1:00:19here's one thing I know. AI cannot be creative. Okay, it's just a stochcastic parrot. It's just predicting the next
346. 1:00:26token. Okay, there's there's no creativity there. And then you show them some [ __ ] movie you made. You're
347. 1:00:32like, "How's this?" Like, "What? What's that? That's an AI movie that I made." That's AI. Yeah. How? [Laughter]
348. 1:00:43Well, watching the Jay's winning. That's awesome. Okay. So, wait. I wanna I want to do a little little manual editing
349. 1:00:50here. So, we're going to go right before. Okay. So, this is going to there's going to there's going to be a bad cut here.
350. 1:01:04[Music] Okay. So, we're going to split the clip here. Split clip. Oh, and QuickTime crashed because
351. 1:01:18Hey, Apple. Why don't you work on QuickTime not crashing when I split a clip in it? And why don't you go find
352. 1:01:28Elon Musk's little video buddy over there um who can't figure out how to upload videos to their $40 trillion little little platform.
353. 1:01:42That'd be swell. And you guys could go fix it together. You can have like a little work session. go to a co-working space in downtown
354. 1:01:50Seattle and go fix your [ __ ] How about that? Um, okay. So, let's save this as uh shapes dash end.
355. 1:02:06By the way, for you creative professionals here, um, if you haven't been here before, one of the things I do
356. 1:02:14like to do is give file management advice. So, my advice for saving your files is always save them to the desktop
357. 1:02:23with a non-escript name loose without a folder. That will save you hours of time because you realize you'll never be able
358. 1:02:33to find anything. So, you just won't look. Okay. So, I'm going to add a clip to the end of this and I'm going to add shapes. Done.
359. 1:02:44And now we're going to watch it and see what we got. Okay, Paula Rainbow's creative or Puke Rainbow's creative liked my file
360. 1:02:54management skills. I listen, I don't like to brag, but when you got talent, you got to you sometimes you got to
361. 1:02:59flaunt it, you know? You know what I'm saying? I got I got skills in the uh in the the management area.
362. 1:03:13Okay. Sort of. Okay. So, what I need to do is I need to not have it pause so long.
363. 1:03:28Okay, wait. Hang on. Split it right there. Split.
364. 1:03:43Oh, yeah. I just I just killed that whole section. There we go. Boom. And then we do this. And now we do we go back here.
365. 1:03:54And if by the way, if you're wondering what am I doing, that's not so bad. That That is what if if you're not if you're neurotypical,
366. 1:04:09why are you still watching this? If you're neurotypical, what you might think is, "Oh, he's doing something important here." No, no, no. I
367. 1:04:19had a brain fart. I saw that the one of them had a more interesting ending than the other one did. So, so I just wanted to stick them
368. 1:04:30together and see if I could get it to like use the best of both. The answer was yes. And it's not horribly janky. If
369. 1:04:37I used actual, you know, motion graphics software, it' be really good and I would do audio design [ __ ] but you know, this is add. Welcome.
370. 1:04:52Click, click, click. And there's a little bit of a glitch with the purple, but you know, I don't really
371. 1:04:58care. All right, so that worked. Okay, I feel attacked with the file saving advice. Listen, listen. It's You know
372. 1:05:09what's funny? I've been doing this for three years and probably about once a month, like before I go live, I eat
373. 1:05:16dinner and I'm watching TV and I'm thinking like, you know, I should probably really like make like a little
374. 1:05:23file system like just it could be just like a AI learning lab folder and then maybe there's like two folders inside it
375. 1:05:31and I just stick [ __ ] in either of those. Nope. I've never done it. It's just it's just mountains of files on my
376. 1:05:39desktop because you know what I'm waiting for? I'm waiting for Apple to get their [ __ ] together and actually add artificial
377. 1:05:46intelligence to their operating system and I can just say, "Oh, go find me that thing with the with those shapes and
378. 1:05:53it'll go find it." But, you know, they've dropped the ball. So, this is on that. This is not on me. This is not on me.
379. 1:06:00You're in you're in good in good company puke with your file management. Okay. Um let's go to a regulars and look at Corey Sandler's uh
380. 1:06:12whatchamacallit movie. What's her movie about? I guess we'll find out. I hope it's not about a carney kissing a little girl.
381. 1:06:27Oh, good lord. Okay, here we go. And we're going to go to irregulars. Oh, nice. Kyle does his famous box demo.
382. 1:06:44Where? Oh, do I need to reload? I probably need to reload. No, it's not here. Where is it? Is it not in irregulars?
383. 1:06:56There's Mary Mary. That's a cool image. Better irregular than irrelevant. Love that. That's actually really cool. Look at
384. 1:07:04that. Look at that picture. Love it.
385. 1:07:20Corey Sandler. Where's your Where's your movie? Uh uh. Is it in Is it in uh community feed? Maybe it's in community feed.
386. 1:07:34Gareth Vio 3.1. Oh, we should watch the video. Let's do that. Mayon, very cool. Corey Sandler, look what I made. Maybe.
387. 1:07:44Yeah, but I don't know where that is anymore. We changed everything. No, that's Gareth. Corey Sandler. Ah, here's a little Sora
388. 1:07:552 for you. Now, a re a regeneration is coming, but this was fun. Okay, cool. We got to figure out sora.gpt.com.
389. 1:08:08I wish uh Mighty Networks was better at previewing videos. Oh. Wait, wait.
390. 1:08:24>> Got it for you. >> And there's also no no, you can't rewind videos, can you? >> You got this. You've got what it takes.
391. 1:08:36Nail it. Nothing's going to stop you. Ready? Now. >> Got it for you. You got this. When the batter hits the ball, we see
392. 1:08:48the ball travel around the world through landmarks of countries like England and India and Indonesia and Africa and
393. 1:08:54China. The baseball travels fast through many countries until it comes back around to land on in her girlfriend's
394. 1:09:02hand. And the ball lands with the force with force in her hand, but she holds it and smiles lovingly at her girlfriend,
395. 1:09:09the batter, who blows her a kiss. Oh, that's cool. That's beautiful. Nice. >> You've got what it takes. Nail it.
396. 1:09:17Nothing's going to stop you. Ready now. Got it for you. You got this. >> That's cool. Nice. Love it. I love it.
397. 1:09:28All right, let's go somewhere. I just saw um [Music]
398. 1:09:42wait. Oh yeah. Eelon, where did I just look? In community feed. Yeah, the VO3 movie.
399. 1:09:58Here we go. Do you see that? No. Share this tab instead. >> This is VO, the video generation model designed for creativity.
400. 1:10:12New enhanced capabilities give you control like never before. Let's take a look. You can use a reference image, a
401. 1:10:19location, a character, object, or a combination. Vio puts them together into a fully formed scene complete with
402. 1:10:27sound. Hello. Oh, is anybody here? >> Great moments don't need to end. You can extend your clips and transform any shot into a full scene.
403. 1:10:39And for ultimate narrative control, define the start and end points of your shot. Vio bridges them with epic transitions.
404. 1:10:49You can also reimagine any shot by adding or removing elements from subtle details to impossible objects. VO
405. 1:10:56matches scale, lighting, and shadow for seamless results. All this with astonishing detail, real world physics, and cinematic outputs.
406. 1:11:06Bring it all to life with audio using sound effects, ambient noise, and dialogue. >> Just got to listen.
407. 1:11:20>> Push creativity to new limits with VO. Start creating today with flow. >> All right. Well, that sounds good. All right. So,
408. 1:11:36let's talk. What have we learned tonight? Um, if you've got access to VO, go play with it.
409. 1:11:51Um, Runway ML now has a new thing called apps, which is really cool. Um, which if you haven't played with, go play with those. Um,
410. 1:12:06I'm still kind of blown away by lovable.dev. If you haven't vibe coded, if you don't know what vibe coding is, um,
411. 1:12:19and you haven't gone to lovable.dev, like even if you're a developer, even if you're a coder or an engineer,
412. 1:12:25go to lovable.dev and just ask it to build you something if you haven't done it. It's just kind of cool.
413. 1:12:40Let's see. Dialogue. That was clearly a monologue. Oh, yeah. That's interesting. Maybe we should go find Let me see if I can go
414. 1:12:50find Oh, you know what else I wanted to try that that maybe I'll try with you guys? Let me go. Um, I want to try two things with you all
415. 1:13:07with y'all people. The first one is we're going to search for storyboard and then we're going to go images and
416. 1:13:18then we're going to go find how's this one look viral video storyboard shot one note zoom on a something
417. 1:13:32review of IDO storyboard technique as the cyclists walk around their bikes around while filming. No, closeup of a something flag carrier.
418. 1:13:47Okay, let's save this image. I'm going to save it to the desktop in my file saving strategy. We're going to call this storyboard [Laughter]
419. 1:14:05so I can I can find it again. Where is it? Yeah, that one storyboard. It had like bicycles on it. I know. I saved it as something.
420. 1:14:17All right, then we're going to go back to flow. I'm going to share this tab instead. I shared my tab. I'm really I'm really happy with that.
421. 1:14:29[Music] Corey Sandler, Kyle, I've been coding in GPT with codec. Still so far from what I want. Can I paste that into
422. 1:14:41lovable? Yeah, you should be able to you can do it one of two ways, Corey. You should be able to post your code in
423. 1:14:48there and say I wrote this somewhere else like fix it or but is it is is what you've done in codeex just a single file
424. 1:14:59because the other thing you could do is you could have now that you've gotten it a certain distance in codeex you could just have
425. 1:15:07chat GPT say you know what why don't you just describe this software in detail that I can hand to a product person and
426. 1:15:15then take the description desion in detail and throw throw that in lovable and see what it does. Um, oh, we never went back and looked at
427. 1:15:25the cowboy, but hang on, let me um let me add in a story board that we got off the internet that I called storyboard.
428. 1:15:41Such an idiot. Okay, let's see. Well, it cuts off the descriptions at the bottom, but that's okay. Let's let it try to figure that out.
429. 1:15:56Okay, so there's a storyboard. I'm going to say like um create a movie that brings this storyboard to life.
430. 1:16:12All right. And so while it's doing that, we can go watch our cowboy movie where hopefully the person in the car is the one
431. 1:16:20yelling, not the cowboy. You're all here. Good here, right? Kyle's desktop is like my downloads folder.
432. 1:16:29There are some very specifics. It's It's a prompt generator extraordinaire. Um, I would grab all the JSON if you've got
433. 1:16:40a bunch of JSON with the different prompt the prompt fragments. I don't know. You know, you know what
434. 1:16:48might be interesting, Corey? I depending on the time you have, if if you want to make an actual pot at some point or if
435. 1:16:55you want to make a whole other application, what might be interesting is now that you've learned sort of how to get there in codeex,
436. 1:17:05actually start over in lovable and just, you know, kind of start from the beginning and just see see if you
437. 1:17:13can evolve it more quickly. see if it gets there more quickly because Lovable right now I think is using Sonnet 4.5.
438. 1:17:21So, it's supposed to be quite good. that the the app I I I single shot coded last night, the animal DNA mixer thing,
439. 1:17:31um was pretty [ __ ] impressive for like a singleshot thing with sliders and animals and generating, you know, whatever DNA kind of thing.
440. 1:17:47>> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. I think I'm going to have to post one of these on the internet.
441. 1:18:06That's cowboy bullying. [Music] >> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. >> That's fun. Get back on your horse, you big dummy.
442. 1:18:23>> When cowboys get bullied. All right, we're downloading this [ __ ] We're We're upscaling it to 1080p. We're
443. 1:18:31not [ __ ] around here, people. We've got Cowboys are being bullied and we now have video evidence of it. This cannot stand.
444. 1:18:42We need to raise awareness of the cowboy bullying going on. This means X. Definitely post it on X.
445. 1:18:59Yes. Use a liberal arts mind. Unlovable. It works. Yeah, exactly. It really does. Um, okay. Good lord, that's funny. Woo. [Laughter]
446. 1:19:16reality rip. I know. Listen. So, here's Okay, Anti-Bubbles, I don't think you were here the other night when I was
447. 1:19:23talking about this. I've got I've got opinions on this now. Um, we are in the we we're actually in some
448. 1:19:33weird rarified air as as a generation of human beings where we've lived most of our lives without AI, right? I mean,
449. 1:19:44there's been AI and maps and [ __ ] like that, but generative AI, right? Like November 30th, 2022, that's when all
450. 1:19:50this stuff kind of starts. So, we've lived most of our lives without AI. We are going to be the rare generation
451. 1:20:01that actually understands what it was like before and what it was like after. So right now we're in this weird
452. 1:20:07transition phase in the middle where every time these models hit another level of capability where it's indistinguishable from
453. 1:20:18reality, we're like, "Oh, that's weird. How do I deal with that? Wait, what's what's going to be reality?" the generation after us is not
454. 1:20:29going to have that question because they're not going to know what it was like before that beforehand. And when I when I had this thought of
455. 1:20:37like, oh, we're in this weird transition period and and the future generation is going to be much more sophisticated
456. 1:20:44about understanding different kinds of entertainment. And and what what hit me was when the printing press when the
457. 1:20:52Gutenberg press was first invented, the only thing you could print on it were Bibles, right? Because Bible the
458. 1:21:00Bible was the most important book and monks were spending years, you know, creating illuminated manuscripts by
459. 1:21:07hand. And the printing press comes out and what do you print, you know, what do you print on paper? Like paper was expensive. Um, you know,
460. 1:21:18Bibles were expensive. You print Bibles. There was some artist somewhere who maybe ran the printing press and at
461. 1:21:30night was handwriting the first fiction of the era, right? They were writing a a a fiction, a novel, a notreal story.
462. 1:21:45And and at 3:00 in the morning one night, they they took out all the letters and they put in their letters
463. 1:21:52and they printed the world's first fiction. Made a book of the world's first fiction. And that must have seemed so weird. It's
464. 1:22:02like you can't do that. You can't. The printed page is for Bible verse. It's not for heretics. like how are we going to how are we
465. 1:22:14going to distinguish between these, right? And then at some point it just became normal. That's what we're in the middle of right
466. 1:22:21now. I find it I find it utterly fascinating, you know, like like we're going to be able to discern it. It's just going to be like a new
467. 1:22:35kind of fanfiction or or it might not even be fiction, right? Like it's just going to be a new kind of storytelling where
468. 1:22:49Brandon's six-year-old kid has an idea and says, "Hey, Daddy, I want a movie about a truck named Bob."
469. 1:22:59And then his six-year-old asks a thing, "Make me a movie about a truck named Bob." And it does. And then Brandon, cuz he's got a YouTube
470. 1:23:11account, goes, "Yeah, let me stick it up on YouTube." And then all of a sudden, people love Bob the Truck movie and it becomes a hit,
471. 1:23:21right? Like, we're not that far from that future. Like, we're kind of in it. Be right back. making a movie. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.
472. 1:23:32Okay, so we've got Nice. This is the high-res. >> Get back on your horse, you big dummy. >> Oh, you didn't see it cuz I don't I
473. 1:23:42didn't have my she screen shared. That's okay. It looks great. Trust me. We're going to go to X now and you're going to
474. 1:23:50watch me lose my [ __ ] mind when I try to upload a video to Elon Musk's fancy little toy Twitter. Um,
475. 1:24:04[Laughter] let's see. Um, cowboys
476. 1:24:19are being bullied. PSA, cowboys are being bullied.
477. 1:24:35Hug a cowboy today. I'm such an idiot. I You know what's funny about most of my sense of humor is I'm the only one that finds it funny.
478. 1:24:56I think people see most of my posts and they're like, "What did is he on something? I heard he lives in Denver. He's probably on edibles.
479. 1:25:14Okay, let's try to upload a video to videentric Twitter. 4% 5% 6% 7% 8%. Oh, is it going to actually upload? 14 15 It
480. 1:25:29hasn't gone back to zero yet. Good lord, people. 16. Nope, it went back to 13. It's going to error out right about
481. 1:25:39Come on, you can do it. You can error out. Dear Elon, hey Elon, I tried to upload a video to your service X.com.
482. 1:25:52You know, the one that you said was going to be super video friendly. Yeah, that one. Yeah, it didn't work. Wait, we're at 60%.
483. 1:26:05Hey Elon, I saw that you shot like a rocket in the air and then you like hovered it above the ocean and then it
484. 1:26:10blew up. That was cool. Could we get an video uploader that works? Uploaded 100%. I think we're good. I think we're good, people. All right.
485. 1:26:21Wait, I got to I got to add some some people to this so it gets a little bit of reach at Scoble. I hope he doesn't
486. 1:26:27mind me tagging him all the time. I tag I try to tag him with cool [ __ ] at Dustin Hollywood will do. Um, who
487. 1:26:36else should I tag here? Wait, what did I do this in? Oh, this is Google. So, do does do they have a VO tag? No. Wait, VO? No. Uh, VO3?
488. 1:26:48No. Uh, we'll do Gemini and we'll do Google. the Google.
489. 1:27:04Wow, it worked. I know. It's a little miracle. Okay, post. So, do me a favor. How many people are here? We got 37 on
490. 1:27:12the Tik Tok. We got 24 on the other place. Go to Twitter X, whatever you call it. It's Twitter. They took away the bird. They killed the
491. 1:27:21bird. And go to Kyle Shannon. K Y L E S H N O N. and like this video. We got to get the word about out about these poor cowboys.
492. 1:27:35[Music] Get back on your horse, you big dummy. Get back on your horse, you big dummy. [Music]
493. 1:27:53All right, people. Whatever. Listen, it's it's the little things. Do you want to hear my song? It's the little things.
494. 1:28:10I really am kind of punch drunk tonight. I don't know what it is. [Music] Maybe maybe
495. 1:28:29[Music] filled with light and shadow. You're
496. 1:28:44lost in a world so vast, so hollow. But I bring you a sandwich cut just right. A small act of love in the quiet of the night.
497. 1:29:01[Music] So many years together through thick and thin. [Music] You're consumed with each other when it
498. 1:29:16begins. But love in the details, not the passion, not the sex. Love grows from the little things. Love grows in the cracks.
499. 1:29:31In the middle of the night, in the silence it brings. My poor brain seems to race with the list of little things. All [Music]
500. 1:29:47right. Um, funny thing about this song. So, this song as it's currently written is in act two and it's when they get
501. 1:29:58back together and and Terara sings to Kellen. It's the little things of Why I Love You and Why I put up with your [ __ ]
502. 1:30:07We're in the middle of a rewrite right now. And the little things is the song she sings before she [ __ ] leaves him
503. 1:30:16cuz he [ __ ] up their vacation. So, we're raising the stakes. So, this is going to go from being a loving song to
504. 1:30:23a it's the little things that broke our marriage, you [ __ ] [ __ ] For those of you following the Sydney
505. 1:30:32the Sydney uh travails, um I by the way I have a meeting tomorrow um with with uh two people. One of them says she
506. 1:30:42wants to potentially produce Sydney and one of them is interested in learning more. Um so even though I don't talk
507. 1:30:50about it that often, it is still moving. We're still working on improving the script whenever we can and the songs.
508. 1:30:58Um, oh, you want to hear something cool? No, Kyle, we thought you were going to be done by now. Could we go to bed? No.
509. 1:31:07Brandon's like, really, dude? Could we not? [Laughter]
510. 1:31:23So, we've got [Music] [Music] Okay, let me share this tab. I won't
511. 1:31:39play many of these or for that long. But so for those of you following my musical Sydney, been working on it for about a year and a half.
512. 1:31:53And we've got, if you go to Soundcloud and search for Sydney um an artificial love story, you'll see you'll see the
513. 1:32:02soundtrack and that's all of the sort of fully produced um tracks. So they're they're they're all different styles.
514. 1:32:11And so what we wanted to do was we wanted to make piano versions of the fully produced ones so they kind of
515. 1:32:18sound more like a single musical. And so we're we're I don't know about a quarter of the way through doing it. But um here
516. 1:32:26are a couple of the piano versions of the of the songs from Sydney. This the opening number.
517. 1:32:52Awakened in a whisper, a flicker like newborn thought. [Music]
518. 1:33:07>> Wait, >> this isn't the opening number. This is the end of act one. As I feel this existence [Music] and wonder,
519. 1:33:24[Music]
520. 1:33:39are you ready for me? And the wonders I bring. Am I ready for you? And the songs that we'll sing. Are you ready for me? I
521. 1:33:52reach out so tender. Am I ready for you? I do. >> All right. So, that's end of act one. It
522. 1:34:07builds really nice toward the end. I don't like the beginning of it, but it builds really nice toward the end. Um,
523. 1:34:12too good to be true. Here's the opening number. Too often we come close, so close to a
524. 1:34:28breakthrough. Standing on hope, but it all falls apart. Just follow the dream wherever it takes you and pray you find
525. 1:34:39the pulse of a brand new heart. It's the promise of a new dawn break. A leap of faith we're all taking.
526. 1:34:52Is it too good to be true? We wonder. Hopes and fears crashing like thunder. Too good to be true. Or so it seems. In
527. 1:35:06the maze of code, we weave our dreams. Changes everything. We're all born on digital wings. >> Yeah, that one is 34 or 68. I think it's
528. 1:35:2234. Um, let's see. This is the the one where she says she loves him. [Music]
529. 1:35:38Yeah, Quantum Cipher has a piano version. I'll play it for you. [Music]
530. 1:36:00I don't need to know your name because I know your soul and I love you so. I don't need to know your name
531. 1:36:17because I know your voice and I love your voice. [Music] So that's that one here. Let me play Quantum Cipher for you. The piano
532. 1:36:32version of Quantum Cipher, I think I like it better than the the regular version. And it it actually sounds like a Broadway song now.
533. 1:36:41The beginning of it way too much like Hamilton, but um but it's good. Oh, this this this. All right.
534. 1:36:58Yeah, yeah, yeah.
535. 1:37:18I'm tangled with the beat. Spooky action in the booth. Split the atom with the pattern. Every bar is a versat superp
536. 1:37:24position in the mission. Fusion fusing my intentions parallel in every line. I'm a prism of dimensions. Multivic
537. 1:37:30antics. I'm manic with the semantics. My rhymes collide like particles gigantic and gigantic oscillating dominate. I'm
538. 1:37:36weaving quantum states. Spin a verse and watch the multiverse reciprocate quantum precision. I'm ripping the rhythm. I'm
539. 1:37:41spitting in prisms. Infinite visions. I'm shifting dimensions with li decisions. Accelerate levitate. Elevate
540. 1:37:46thoughts in the turbulent spin. I'm the velocity ripping apart the certain you're in. So step into the quantum
541. 1:37:52where the chaos aligns. My bars are entropic logic redefining the divine. From the smallest of particles to the
542. 1:37:57cosmos that we know this is gra at its limit slow [Applause] right diva singing the big run at the
543. 1:38:14end there. Come on. bring the house down. So anyway, so Sydney, she's a moving. She is a moving. All right, now it's
544. 1:38:29seriously time to get out of here. Okay, let me turn off stop sharing and stop and that and Okay, I don't I have no idea what I said
545. 1:38:43tonight. I know I was peppy. Okay. So, tomorrow um tomorrow's Thursday. For the past three Wednesdays, I have thought it was
546. 1:38:54Thursday on Wednesday. So, there's a there's a wrinkle in time. Days are like six days long, but I think No, they're
547. 1:39:02seven days long, but I think they're six days long. A day is getting eaten in my universe. I don't know what's going on.
548. 1:39:08Um so, that's important to know. This Saturday, um, in the AI salon, we've got these things called learn out louds, LOL's.
549. 1:39:18What those are is any person in the AI salon community, and this could be any of you. If you join the AI salon, you
550. 1:39:26can host an LOL. What is an LOL? You basically take an hour out of your life and you teach something that you know.
551. 1:39:34So if you know how to like vibe code in codeex or if you know how to do something unlovable or you want to show
552. 1:39:40people how you make songs or how you prompt chat GPT, it doesn't [ __ ] matter. You have a passion for the thing and
553. 1:39:49you're willing to be generous. Like one of our our tenants uh in the in the cycle of AI readiness is generously
554. 1:39:56lead. And what that looks like is take what you know and share it. and and uh so there's one of those on
555. 1:40:04Saturday. So if you go to the AI salon, you'll see it. We've got a an actual event calendar now that's accurate and good. Uh and it's it's
556. 1:40:14Kelly Camp. What's the What's the topic again, Kelly? What are you teaching? Oh, and contact Vicki. Yeah, Vicki. V I ki.
557. 1:40:24Find Vicki in the AI salon. If you want to teach an LOL, contact Vicki. she's the LOL coordinator, gatherer,
558. 1:40:34all that sort of stuff. And then you get promoted by the salon and you start to build your brand. And you also I mean,
559. 1:40:41here's the thing about teaching. In order for you to teach something for an hour, like I'm on here two hours a
560. 1:40:47night and I'm not really teaching, granted, fair, touche. Um, if you teach for an hour, it forces you to internalize the thing you're
561. 1:40:58teaching. So, you learn, you learn better, but it also is really valuable for the community. So, go do one of
562. 1:41:04those and participate when other people do them. So, Kelly's doing one Saturday. Oh, it's on connectors. So, Kelly Camp
563. 1:41:12within Chat GPT is using connectors now to connect to outside services. She's she's one of the first of the irregulars
