Transcript

1. 0:00sing. I know you're gonna you're you're pissed off. I know you're cranky, but come on. Come sing, buddy. Come sing.
2. 0:07Let me adjust my guitar strap. All right, that's better. There we go. Right. Ready? [music]
3. 0:24[music] >> [screaming]
4. 0:47[screaming] >> Champ, what's what's dog for? I've got bad breath. Huh? I mean, I appreciate the singing, but
5. 0:59that's a little it's a little ripe. You've been chewing on turds? H You've been chewing on poop, have you? [music]
6. 1:25>> [music] [screaming]
7. 2:07[laughter] >> What? What are you so ramy for? What are you so ramy for? >> [screaming]
8. 2:21>> She came on to him like slow moving cold front his [screaming] big woman. Then the look in her eyes.
9. 2:38She sat on a stool and he said, "What do you want? She said, "Give me a love that don't freeze her inside."
10. 2:59He said, "I melted some house in my time, [singing] dear. But to sit next to you, well, I shiver and shake.
11. 3:13[music] And if I knew love, well, I don't think I'd be [singing] gay. [music] Asking myself if I've got what it takes.
12. 3:30I do melt your icy blue heart. [music] Should I stop? Turn what's been frozen for years
13. 3:49into a river of tears.
14. 4:03>> [music] >> Little out of tune on the guitar there. What are you going to do? Halfway through the song, you hear it and you're
15. 4:10like, "Ah, that's just awful." [laughter] Happy Thanksgiving, good people. I hope you're home with the family. I hope
16. 4:20they've put you down for your your uh the fact that you're AI positive. [laughter] I did a little post on the AI salon
17. 4:31today about that and people are like, "Oh yeah, I've already been kind of disowned. I'm not allowed to talk about
18. 4:37it anymore." I'm like, "Invite him to Festivus." [laughter] Oh, good lord. Good people. Champy's in a singing mood tonight. He,
19. 4:51you know, he's funny. He's He's a little pissed off. So, here's the thing about Champ, and you might expect this being that
20. 5:00he's a star, famous dog star. Um, we, and by we, I do not mean me or the kids. We feed Champ
21. 5:15food. that people eat [laughter] and and he gets he gets whatever he wants. And sometimes it's burgers and
22. 5:26sometimes it's chicken and sometimes and he will eat the same kind of food for about three days in a row and then he's
23. 5:35just done. You make him like a cheeseburger with a bun. Again, not me making it. Someone in the house makes it.
24. 5:45And he just goes over and looks at it and he looks up. He's like, "I'm disappointed in this." And he [ __ ] walks away. And then he's got
25. 5:56the nervew all [ __ ] night. Like, "Feed me. Feed me something. Feed me something gourmet. This what we got to deal with all
26. 6:10[ __ ] night. Where's my cheese? What? Why noodles again? Spaghetti bolognes for the third night in a row. I don't think so. Do I look
27. 6:20like a street dog? He was found in a ditch in Oklahoma. Okay. [laughter] Right. Lay down. Lay down. Lay down. Lay
28. 6:30down. Lay down. Lay down. Sit. Sit. Good boy. [laughter] You know I'm talking about you. You're a little space diva, aren't you? Huh?
29. 6:43[music] [music] [music]
30. 7:03Hey. [music] >> [music] [music]
31. 7:22[music] [music] >> Heat. Heat.
32. 7:37[music] [music] [music]
33. 8:00>> [music] >> Um, let's see. What do we got going on? Speaking of music, um, Sunno, Sunno has been uh, so UDO got gobbled up
34. 8:17by uh, Universal Music Group. Sunno got gobbled up by Warner Brothers, Warner Music Group today. Um, you're going to have to have a paid
35. 8:26subscription to download your [ __ ] songs. So, what I think this is going to precipitate, this is my guess, or andor
36. 8:38if you're a coder, you want an opportunity, go make your own [ __ ] music model like an open- source one. [music]
37. 8:53cuz what's going to happen is the the uh the big music companies are going to do everything they can to retain their their business model
38. 9:03and which by the way does not serve artists in case it wasn't clear. Um but they're going to try to lock you into a walled
39. 9:13garden that's their garden. There's still producer AI. Yeah, that one will probably fall next.
40. 9:29>> [music] [music] [music]
41. 9:47[music] >> Can you imagine if you opened Logic Pro
42. 10:05and Logic Pro wouldn't let you download a song that you edited? [laughter] Oh, there's still refusion. I know. Yeah. Producer AI, baby.
43. 10:21Cassette recorder. Yeah. [music]
44. 10:41>> [music] [music] >> Um, [music]
45. 11:03a new chapter in music creation. Sunno partners with Warner Music Group to build the future of interactive music.
46. 11:10This was after they raised, didn't they just raise $250 million? Wasn't that them? [music] >> [music]
47. 11:24>> So, I wonder if that $250 million had some strings attached, you know, guitar strings and such, [laughter]
48. 11:34like around the neck of the CEO. Okay, here's what's going to happen. You're going to make this little
49. 11:40announcement. We've raised $250 million, which puts us at a $2.3 billion valuation. The future of music is here.
50. 11:48And then two weeks later, we're going to announce this little diddy where you're going to tell people they're going to
51. 11:53charge they're they're going to have to pay to get their songs. And then a month from now, we'll make the real announcement. [laughter]
52. 12:05Yeah. Bitter. You betcha. Um, the next five years are going to be a series of large corporations
53. 12:22kicking and screaming and suing to to to maintain their business models. Um, and I think longterm it's not going
54. 12:31to go well. kind of like the the ad business is they they kind of [ __ ] themselves because they they basically
55. 12:39denied they denied digital for 30 years. Yeah, digital is not that big a deal. It's all about TV. It's all about
56. 12:46broadcast. [laughter] Yeah, we'll be over here winning our Emmys while you make your cute little websites and go to
57. 12:52your cute little media buys. Okay, we're going to be doing the real advertising business. They did that for 30 [ __ ] years
58. 13:00and now they're like, "Uh, we we like the internet. The internet's good." Yeah, it's uh solid. I like it's it's
59. 13:08all pretty good. The internet. Yeah. Wait, AI? Huh? [laughter] Oh, did we mention Flux 2 already? No, I
60. 13:18No, I have not. I Listen, honest to God, I told you this would happen. I said it. I was listen I have said to you people
61. 13:26the tools don't matter unless they do. There's a whole bunch of tools out right now that are way better than what was there before.
62. 13:36So you got the nano banana thing. People are going crazy with it. Every time I put up some new idea, people adopt it.
63. 13:41They're loving it. It's this is this is changing things. Um Gemini 3's absolutely crazy. Uh Claude 4.5, we
64. 13:50didn't even talk about that yesterday. So after the live, I was like, "Oh, maybe I should go like try something in Claude 4.5."
65. 14:00So because I don't have any original thoughts, I thought, I know. I'll make myself an asteroids clone. Holy [ __ ]
66. 14:07you won't believe believe how good it is. And then today, Flux 2 came out, which Flux 2 pre- Nano Banana would be pretty
67. 14:21revolutionary. It's open- source. It's free. You can install it on your own computers or you can install it in cloud computers. Um,
68. 14:31and it's really, really good. Um but it's not sitting inside of Gemini 3, right? Nano Banana is sitting inside a multimodal
69. 14:45um model that's connected to Google. So [music] I would say Google still has the uh has the lead. But if you're like screw Google,
70. 14:55I don't want to feed the beast. I want to make good images on my own or I want to make an application where I don't
71. 15:01have to pay their exorbitant token fees, then Flux 2 looks good. And if you go to uh if you go to [music]
72. 15:18what's the uh what's the model site? I'm having an old person moment. Uh, where all the models are. Brandon's brain still works. I think
73. 15:30he's about to type it. You know where you go. Where the models are. Where the developers go. Not GitHub. The other one
74. 15:39song. My child arrived the other day. So much like a man. I just had to say. Nice. I like it. No, not llm arena. No,
75. 15:49no, no. The model. Um, hugging face. If you go to hugging face, there's uh you can play with flux 2 there. Hugging
76. 15:57face. Thank you. Shainsaw. Shainsaw got it. Shainsaw gets a cookie. Everybody give Shane Saw a cookie. [laughter]
77. 16:10Oh, good lord. Good lord. Good lord. [music] What do you want? You want up there? Hang on. I got to deal with I got dog
78. 16:21issues. Want to get up? Want to get up? Come on. Come on. Come on. Out. You want out? All right.
79. 16:38Don't bug me anymore. Here's your fat dog. That dog, that dog is a Randy Minkx.
80. 17:04[music] Um, [music] let me show you what I built in Claude.
81. 17:20Um, so Claude 4.5 Opus is out. So Opus is their big model and this is their their Claude 4. What was it? 41 4041
82. 17:34was the was the standard for a while. Now it looks like Gemini 3 is the new the new king of the hill, but when I when I went to Claude,
83. 17:44it was pretty dang good. Um, so this is this is um I made one modification to this site. No, two.
84. 18:00the thrust. The color of the thrust. Oh, wait. I gotta hang on a sec. There you go. For you people on the on the Tik Tok.
85. 18:17Hugging face. Don't Yeah. Okay. Um I hope the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is ready to build an AI wing.
86. 18:31Well, I just Listen, here's what's going to happen with AI music. It's It's not going to be a thing. It's not. It's like
87. 18:44like sampling was all the [ __ ] like sampling was going to ruin music and those aren't real musicians and they're
88. 18:49just copying and pasting. And there are going to be people that use AI music tools better than other people and
89. 18:56they're going to have careers and some of them will form bands to play the music they wrote using AI and you'll
90. 19:01never know what was AI written and what what wasn't. It doesn't [ __ ] matter. Um, okay. So, this thing
91. 19:10I said to Claude 4.5 it like I often do, make me an Asteroids clone. And I and I said I want it to have that late7s aesthetic.
92. 19:22And so it went ahead and made it I don't know if you can see it on Tik Tok, but um it's got scan lines like a CRT,
93. 19:32right? And here listen to the listen to the sounds.
94. 19:57Ah. Um, notice how like Asteroids is ghosted into the CRT. Um, this is a oneshot game. And if you don't know what that term means, one
95. 20:08shot, it means I wrote the prompt, make me an asteroids clone. And this is what came out. This is what came out. This is this is
96. 20:16version two where the the thruster that was behind the ship was red. And I said, if you're going to make a green
97. 20:22phosphorus screen, you should it should be a green thruster. And I said level one should start less intense. And so it
98. 20:29started level one with four asteroids instead of six. Um, but holy [ __ ] like even the way the the the ship flickers when it first starts
99. 20:40where you have a little a little grace period where you can get your bearings, it's it's a little fast
100. 20:49compared to the original. And the UFOs come out a little intense, but like this is crazy. And let me let me flip over to Claude. Let's see
101. 21:05where retro arcade game. So, let's look at the code. All right. Share this tab instead. So, it just like it's a pretty long code
102. 21:22base like oscillator frequency. So, here's audio stuff. Hyperspace, extra life. Here's the ship,
103. 21:38canvas width, canvas height, math.py, I guess, for doing circle [ __ ] Thrusting false visible true invincible
104. 21:49120. Oh, let's turn invincible up to 300. Oh, you can't edit it. Damn it. [laughter] I'm sure I could I could just tell that
105. 22:00I want it more invincible. Um friction. Here's the asteroids. There's the asteroids.
106. 22:15You know what's amazing to me is I think back like in 1979 or probably 7778 when Atari was just getting started. Who
107. 22:26is that? Noah Bushnell, right? Um, he was probably coding in something that was like this and just, you know,
108. 22:35figured out the shapes and the dynamics and the physics and there were probably, you know, 400 iterations of the code
109. 22:43base before they burned it onto a chip. But anyway, it uh you can now just ask for it. Now do pong. Okay. All right. Let's do um
110. 23:00I wonder can I spin up? Yeah, I can cuz here's the where is it? This right here is is the code base. Are these artifacts
111. 23:11sharable? Yeah. In fact, um, copy publish artifact content already published. Here's the link. So, let me go I'll go
112. 23:27throw this in in the AI salon. So, I'll go to we'll go to community feed. We'll put it out there where
113. 23:40everyone can see it. Did I already put it here? I don't think I did. Oh, yeah. I put Thanksgiving, the time
114. 23:48of year where you can admit to your family that you're AI positive and then invite them to AI Festivus. By the way,
115. 23:54if you go to um some of the main areas in the salon, we now have ads for AI Festivus right on screen. I was just thinking how this brought
116. 24:06brought me back to Atari. Yeah, I still have ours from the Wayback Machine. Oh, that's so cool. That's really cool. Okay, so let's see. Um,
117. 24:16here is a single shot version of an Asteroids clone using Claude
118. 24:314.5 Opus. And I'm going to put that. And then I'm going to add in a picture. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to go over here
119. 24:46and I'm going to do a screenshot. I'm doing a screenshot. It's going to be so fantastic. You know, he made that game. He just
120. 24:56asked for it. He went on the computer and he said, "Hey, could I have a video game?" And then it started doing all
121. 25:05this crazy code. It was like the Matrix. There was just letters flying up the screen. I never seen anything like it.
122. 25:15And then he's like, "Just wait." And I'm like, "Just wait for what? This is boring. Is this is this is AI? This is
123. 25:24This is what you're all excited about." And then about the time I was about to get another scotch and soda. I love my
124. 25:31scotch and soda. Anyway, I was about to get a scotch and soda and up it comes and he started playing this video game
125. 25:39and I'm like, "Where did that come from?" And he said, "Well, I just asked for it. That's what AI did. That's what
126. 25:45all that code was." He called it all the letters. And then he was playing a game. I was like, "Huh?"
127. 26:02Uh, [laughter] all right. So, we're going to go in here. We're going to get rid of that. We're going to add that in.
128. 26:17Boom. All right. So, if you go to Yeah, we're going to notify everyone. So, if you go to um the community feed
129. 26:29right at the top, if you go on the lefth hand side here, you got start your adventure, four little areas there, and
130. 26:34then you got community feed is right down here in in community. All right, go there and you can play that Asteroids
131. 26:41game. And you know what else you can do? You can go uh you can go hack it. Kyle is legend and steam. [laughter]
132. 26:53All the code was flying up just like the Matrix. And then before I know, and then you know what he did? He said, "I don't
133. 27:00even like asteroids anymore. I want Pong." All right. So So here we go. I'm going to say um by Jingus. And by the
134. 27:09way, when you're talking to AI, when you're talking to a chatbot, you should absolutely turn use terms like by jingus and yaluca.
135. 27:20Come on, yaluca. Yeah. Yeah. I see. Bye, Jingus. [laughter] I think I wants I think I want to see me some Pong in the same style. [snorts]
136. 27:39Um, I want that pong to be as close to I just lost my light. the original
137. 27:56as possible. All right. And then I'm going to Oh, you're not watching this, are you? Or are you? No, because you're over there
138. 28:04because I didn't share my screen. That's fine. It's You don't need to see this. You don't need to see everything.
139. 28:08Everybody calm down. I don't know why you're crying, right? There's no crying in AI. But I used it took me 10 years to learn
140. 28:20to code this good. I know. I know. We all used to have careers, okay? We all used to be somebody, right? You don't have to use your brain
141. 28:32anymore. That's part of the deal. You don't have to use your brain. Okay, here we go. Bye, Jingus. I think I wants to see me
142. 28:43some pong. I put bong. That's pretty funny. That would have been funny. I want that pong to be as close to the original as possible. And go.
143. 28:53All right, let's see what this thing does. There's a ton of crying in [laughter] AI. Time to go even further back to 1972.
144. 29:09Let me build you an authentic Pong experience. And here it goes. Look at that. We're just we're just making code now.
145. 29:18You're like, but I still see asteroids over there. I know.
146. 29:34Kyle's a little feisty tonight. I like it. I'm just tired of all of the people in my head complaining about AI. [laughter]
147. 29:45I got I got to give them a talking to [laughter] [ __ ] voices. [clears throat]
148. 30:00You know, it's funny with with AI doubters. You show them something remarkable and they're like, "Oh, yeah.
149. 30:06Anyway, uh there's a typo. [laughter] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like that was supposed to be remarkable or something like that.
150. 30:13Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Let me copy this to the outputs folder. Create crafting a 19 authentic 1972 Pong recreation.
151. 30:31I've done it. Play Pong. Here we go. Bang. Yeah. Yeah. See? Yeah. How do I make this full screen?
152. 30:48Should I just publish it? Should I just go right out on a freaking limb and publish it? Do it. Do it live. Live dangerously.
153. 31:01Okay, here we go. Publish artifact. Pong HTML. Publish and copy link. Copy link. Okay. Oh, get embed code.
154. 31:17Let's see if wait only allow these domains that can embed the artifact. Um,
155. 31:36let me just try to copy this. I don't know how to embed. Screw that. We're just going to copy the link. All right.
156. 31:44So, I'm going to go to the salon again. I'm going to go community feed. I'm going to go um living dangerously published this before
157. 31:59playing it. And then I'm going to put that there. And then I'm going to go back over here. And I'm going to go screenshot baby.
158. 32:13And then I'm going to go back over here. Share this tab. And I'm going to go paste. Boom. All right. You can go play that
159. 32:25while I play it. We're not going to notify everyone this time. And then we're going to go to the artifact.
160. 32:39Oops, that's the wrong one. Wait. Copy. Go here. Go. Paste. Wait. What's going on?
161. 32:56Uh. Uh. Uh uh uh copy link. Go over here. Go like that. Yes. [gasps] Share this tab instead. Okay. One equals one
162. 33:12player. Two equals two players. So I'm going to do one. Uhoh. What am I? Oh,
163. 33:28what am I [ __ ] What are my I could make it go up but not down. Okay, W and A. W and A. A is down. No. What's down?
164. 33:39Right wins. I know right wins. You didn't tell me what my [ __ ] controls were [laughter] one uh S W and S. I would have read the
165. 33:56instructions, but I'm Gen X. I don't do that. This is pretty good.
166. 34:12Except I suck. [laughter] I really suck. [clears throat] It's pretty good. Okay.
167. 34:43[laughter] I suck so bad. Damn it. [laughter] >> [music]
168. 35:11>> This is UV DAR all over again. Shut up. Hey man, get out. I played this for an hour and then asked, "Dad, okay, can we get an Atari?
169. 35:22>> [laughter] >> I mean, I got to tell you that like the the attention to detail of the scan lines and like there's a burned in
170. 35:33phosphor ring where the electron gun, you know, burned brighter and the glow around the things. Tik Tok pin. If you
171. 35:42told me three years ago, this is how I'd be spending every night. [laughter] Hey, Kelly, what'd you do last night? I
172. 35:49don't want to talk about it. Why? Hey, what's what's up? You okay? No. What'd you do? I watched this guy playing Pong. Pong?
173. 36:02Like the old video game? Yeah. How long did you watch him? Two two hours. Kelly, what are you doing with your
174. 36:12life? I KNOW. I'M NOT PROUD OF IT. [laughter] NO, we're not. Okay. [laughter] Three years. How long have you watched him? Three years.
175. 36:29[laughter] Oh my god. But here's the reality.
176. 36:44So for those of you that have been watching this for three years, you know this. When you would try to get this technology,
177. 36:55generative AI to make games initially, it was like blocks, right? And and bad gameplay. And it took you 27 attempts to even get it some
178. 37:08version of playable. And then like a year later it was like, okay, that's sort of good. And then a year later it's like that's pretty good.
179. 37:17And now we're at the point where it's just like, yeah, this is this is like this is beyond just playable. This is like aesthetically
180. 37:29fascinating, right? And good. And you could put a database behind this. So you could keep leaderboards and you could I
181. 37:36could see doing a whole arcade game of these. Uh let let me see. Oh, you know what? You know what? One what might be interesting?
182. 37:43Customize this artifact. I don't need to do that. I'm already in the thing. Um, I'm going to try something here.
183. 37:51I'm going to ask Claude. I'm going to say, um, what is the next big video game after Asteroids in 1979?
184. 38:09Let's see what this comes up with. Yeah, Tetris was way later. Pac-Man. Okay. Oh, Missile Command was my [ __ ] jam.
185. 38:241980 was an incredible year for arcades. The big ones right after Asteroids. Pac-Man. I never got into. Missile
186. 38:31Command. I love Battle Zone. I love Defender. I love Defender. I initially hated because it was so hard, but then I
187. 38:40[ __ ] loved it. And then Centipede was my one. Okay, so when I worked at a movie theater in 1980, um it was the year Mr. Mom came out and
188. 38:48Scarface came out. So I saw Mr. Mom about 800 times and I saw Scarface about a thousand times. Um so I I knew every
189. 38:57[ __ ] line in those [laughter] in those movies. And Tootsie, you're wrong, Dr. Brewster. I'm very proud to be a woman. Um, [laughter]
190. 39:10all right. Which ones do I Centipede's going to be hard because we don't have a track ball. But I guess I could use a
191. 39:16mouse. Oh, I could use a mouse, couldn't I? Oh, do I want to do centipede? I Or the [ __ ] one do I want to do? Defender was
192. 39:26the one. Brutally difficult sidescrolling shooter. Um, I think you know that defender, let's see,
193. 39:40defender or centipede are the beasts. Let's see you tackle
194. 39:55defender. Boom. All right. Am I Oh, I'm not sharing my screen. That That would kind of suck. Um, we could play Pong. We could play Pong
195. 40:09while it writes Defender. [laughter] Um, by the way, if you're wondering where I am, um, we're we're in Claude Claude.ai.
196. 40:23We've selected Opus 4.5, which is their big MacDaddy new model, and we're making video games. The The point I was I was going to make
197. 40:34is this this level of large language model is now capable of very accurately in a single prompt recreating games from
198. 40:47the 70s. Right now, we're moving into the 80s. We'll see. We'll see how far up the the chain we can go
199. 40:55within a year or two or probably today if you were, you know, if if you took some some real time with it. Um, you
200. 41:05could be creating very very sophisticated games within a year or two. You're going to be able to create very sophisticated kick very
201. 41:13sophisticated games without any effort. And three years from now, we're just going to be speaking worlds into
202. 41:21existence. Narrative worlds, game worlds, business worlds, um, information worlds, research worlds, history worlds.
203. 41:32You can't spell Atari without AI. That is true. That's really good. Uh, I saw the Nate Pate Substack.
204. 41:49[laughter] The game that made grown men weep with its five buttons, two-way joystick, and merciless merciless difficulty.
205. 42:01That's pretty funny. All right. Well, we might as well play pong while we're waiting. Oh, I can't see my
206. 42:16Uhoh. What did I do? Am I going to be able to see it now? Nope. Oh, sort of. I can barely see it.
207. 42:42Got one. [laughter] All right. It's still coding. It's still coding, people.
208. 43:01Humanoids. Oh, remember the humanoids when it dropped the humanoids down and you had to go get them before they splatted.
209. 43:12It's going particles and explosions. I don't think the sound is right. Similar, but I do remember maybe hearing
210. 43:22maybe my hearing is better. Yeah, I think this is I think I think this is not a programming issue. I think it might be your ears. [laughter]
211. 43:40Oh, you know what game was great that I bet I bet this would be really good at and it would be fun to play is Lunar Lander.
212. 43:48I bet this would be very good at Lunarander. Old hearing issues. I've got old hearing issues, old seeing issues, all the issues. [laughter]
213. 43:58Getting old sucks. If you cannot do that, that would be swell. The the best option is don't get old. [laughter]
214. 44:12If y'all if and y'all remember like a year ago, you see how long this is coding? See how long it's taking?
215. 44:20These models wouldn't code this long. They they would truncate all their all their coding things and it they they
216. 44:26would make really incomplete incomplete things. This is doing pretty old good. Oh, I think we're done. I saw a closed I
217. 44:39saw a closed HTML tag. This is all just an HTML, by the way. [laughter] Defender 1981 Williams Electronics. Look at that.
218. 44:48That's funny. All right, we're gonna Are we going to just Are we just gonna We're going to publish this one? Is this how
219. 44:55this going to work? This what you people are going to do to me? All right, fine. Fine. We'll do that. Um, danger vibe coding ahead.
220. 45:14published without testing. [laughter] Oh, that that image is too big. Really? Come on. All right. I know what I'll do. I'll do
221. 45:27this. Then I'll change this to this. I'll do this. Then I'll do this. Then I'll go copy. Publish artifact. Publish.
222. 45:38I got to come back here and get that. Hang on. I'll be there in a second. Calm down, everybody. So, there's that. And then I'm going to
223. 45:47go grab [sighs]
224. 46:05post. Do not notify us. We have notified people too much. We got Defender, we got Pong, and we got Asteroids. Oh yeah,
225. 46:14people. Fantastic. Bob, tell him what he's won. Uh, he has won anything. It's not a game show. Okay, here we go.
226. 46:25So, I'm going to go like this. I'm go bang. I'm going to share my screen. We got Defender. Now we don't know
227. 46:34where are our if I go full screen I don't have any what you call it ah there we go
228. 46:49if I do command minus now I can see okay move up and down what's left and right thrust must be spacebar are
229. 47:03a is reverse. Space is fire. This is going to take a while.
230. 47:18Oh. Oh, you [ __ ] Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I remember it now. This is This is not very good. The graphics are not very good, but
231. 47:31playability is pretty good. Damn it. [laughter] This is so hard. This is so hard. This is going to make grown men cry.
232. 47:46They're right. Oh, you [ __ ] Oh. >> [laughter] >> Game over is way too fast. It really is.
233. 48:09Oh my god, this is so hard. This is too hard. Okay, I'm I'm crying. [laughter] Um, I'm gonna I'm gonna say this. I'm
234. 48:21going to go uh the graphics are way too lean. I want them more like the original
235. 48:37and not vector. Um the um difficulty
236. 48:51of level one is way too high. Um make it easier.
237. 49:07[laughter] All right. Whatever. What the [laughter] the challenge of of large language models getting better is that you really
238. 49:19don't have to think as much, [laughter] which I don't know that this is a bad thing. I don't know that it's a bad
239. 49:28thing that we don't need to like if we can put all of our critical thinking energy into what like what problem am I trying to solve
240. 49:39rather than how do I tactically solve it? It seems to me we're going to we're going to ask better questions. I I think
241. 49:48here's where I think there I think there's a fascinating uh split coming in society. And it's not the halves and the halves.
242. 49:56I don't think it's that. I think it's going to be people that take advantage of AI and people that don't.
243. 50:03People that, you know, token [ __ ] Token [ __ ] are like all in on AI. They're they're going to use up all
244. 50:10their tokens. And then there's going to be other people like, I don't [ __ ] care. My robot cleans my house now. I'm good. [laughter]
245. 50:19I just think those people are going to be bored. I think that's going to suck. QA, we don't need QA. Ship it. That was
246. 50:28the magnifi the Magnifox defender. That was totally a Magnavox defender. It was pretty shitty. But I do want to do Lunar
247. 50:36Lander. We'll do Lunar Lander after this. Uh, dumb it down. AI needs to get our personal speed. Yeah, it does. It does.
248. 50:45Okay. What's it doing? Get notified. Oh, that's cool. You can you can tell Claude to notify you when it's doing long tasks.
249. 50:56I do think so. This is one of the things that that Open AAI has been bragging about a little bit, which by the way, I
250. 51:03it sounds like OpenAI's a little pooping in their pants about Gemini 3. that it's that it's of a level that they're like, "Ah, shit." Um,
251. 51:15they've been talking a lot about Sam Alman's been talking a lot about, you know, large language models going from
252. 51:2410 minutes of uninterrupted work to 30 to an hour. Pretty soon it's going to be like two days. Pretty soon it's going to
253. 51:33be five days where you can basically just say to your thing, go accomplish some big task and it will go work for
254. 51:41five days. Yeah. There's also there's also a uh an interview out with Sam Alman and and Johnny Ies where they're
255. 51:50talking about the the hardware device that Johnny Ies is designing. It sounds like it's going to have a sense of humor
256. 51:58about it. It also sounds like it's going to be incredibly minimal. And Altman described it as that hanging out in the
257. 52:06woods in a cabin feeling, [laughter] which I have no [ __ ] idea what that means. And I love metaphors and story. And I
258. 52:18don't know what the [ __ ] he's talking about. I don't I don't I don't know. [laughter] I don't know. Maybe it'll be tied to your robot.
259. 52:32[sighs] I reassured my chat GBT that it was okay. The memory of our conversations are pretty important. Yeah. [gasps]
260. 52:46All right. Improve attract mode with chunky graphics. I like what it's writing here. 21 steps, improved attract mode with chunky graphics,
261. 53:03plus 57 changes, and it's counting them up. Improve game over screen. This is a whole new set of code.
262. 53:19This is cool. Why can't I see it though? Oh, I bet if I went to code I could. No. Oh, yeah.
263. 53:34Where are we?
264. 53:49Uh [groaning] more for next loops. Yep. When I learned basic it was go to [laughter] 10. You know 10 lrint
265. 54:04hello world [laughter] 20. Go to 10. [clears throat and cough] There we go. Now it looks like a real 1981 Williams raster game. Yeah. Yeah,
266. 54:19we don't we don't need no stinking vectors. We need your raster. [laughter] Ship is now propy proper multicolored
267. 54:29sprite with cyan body, white nose, and dark cockpit. All right, defender. Here we go. Let's go look at it. That looks better.
268. 54:46All right. Publish artifact. Copy link. Go over here. Paste.
269. 55:00Share. No, that's the old one. What the [ __ ] is going on with my copying? Hey, Marge.
270. 55:17What? Why is that not working? Unpublish. Publish artifact. Copy link.
271. 55:42No, that looks like it's the same with the same code. Page not found. Go back home. Oh, because I unpublished it.
272. 56:00Publish artifact. Published. What's going on here, people? Um, oh, let me reload this.
273. 56:18I mean, I can download it and we you could just have the published artifact not found or not authorized. Unpublish. What
274. 56:33cranky? All right, we'll download it. There's another way we can skin this cat. Okay. So, what I'm going to do now is I
275. 56:41downloaded the HTML because it's just an HTML file. So, I'm just going to drop that in here. There we go.
276. 56:53Why can I not zoom in on this at all? Am I Am I sharing that? Share this tab instead. Um, view zoom in. Okay, it's going. Zoom in.
277. 57:07Okay. Thrust is left and right. Move is up and down. A is reverse. Space is fire. H is hyperspace. I never use hyperspace.
278. 57:22Enter is start. Protect the humanoids. It's pretty good. Wait. How do you pick up the Don't I have to pick up the humans?
279. 57:50Oh, I should just It should just turn around. Oh, he killed me. Oh, yeah. Oh, I remember it now.
280. 58:06Press enter to continue. It's been a long time since I made it to AI learning lab. I think I'll write a a [laughter] book while I watch.
281. 58:16Jim Ross, man, what's happening? Hey. Hey, look. Jim, look. Jim. Jim. Jim. Listen. Uh, stop sharing. Let me go back
282. 58:24here. Oh, wait. I got to share again. Hang on. I got so excited I stopped sharing. I don't know how long you've been here, Jim, but
283. 58:35[laughter] uh Okay, let's go back here. That's defender. Let's go. Let's show you Asteroids. Here we go.
284. 58:50Look at this Asteroids game. How cool is that? Publish artifact. Copy link. Go over here. But you know what I'm thinking, Jim?
285. 59:03You know what I'm thinking that you could be really good at? Is you could make a storage wars? You could you could do like a threemile
286. 59:14storage branded version of Asteroids. Like Asteroids, and then like the the the asteroids could be like cardboard
287. 59:22boxes flying around. [laughter] But look how good this is. This was one shot of This is Claude uh 4.5.
288. 59:44Ah, black bar. Uh oh. What? What's going on? Why did I lose controls? Oh, I'm not in the right window. Ah, damn it. >> [laughter]
289. 1:00:10>> Do you know what I would have given for this in 1977? A quarter every time I played. I spent so much money playing this
290. 1:00:24stupid [ __ ] game. >> [laughter] >> Ah,
291. 1:00:39it's a little intense. This escalates. This escalates a little quickly. You should integrate Stripe and charge for
292. 1:00:45it. I should. Oh, let's try that. Let's try that. Should I do Stripe or what do I have? I've got Do I have Stripe set up? I
293. 1:00:53think I have a Stripe account. >> [sighs] >> Where's your Space Invaders? We could do Space Invaders. Let me do Lunar Lander.
294. 1:00:59Hang on. There's too much to do. There's too much fun to be had, people. There's too much fun to be had. Okay. Um I'm
295. 1:01:08going to say um Defender bores me now. [laughter] That's what you say when you're not good at a video game. You're like this. Yeah,
296. 1:01:18whatever. It's boring. It's boring. I used to think that about uh wait, I'll make a game where the manager shoots
297. 1:01:27people bringing in the units. That's perfect. [laughter] Oh, that's good. Okay, let me let me share this. Okay. Uh defender bores me
298. 1:01:38now. Um, you know what you would be really good at is lunar lander with vector
299. 1:01:53graphics and swell physics. Go. All right, here we go. Tabs. I think I'm good on tabs, right?
300. 1:02:09Yeah, I'm good on tabs. [sighs] [clears throat and cough]
301. 1:02:28You know what's funny? I don't know if it's funny, but because you're many of you are probably with you're surrounded by people that don't
302. 1:02:37understand what the [ __ ] you're doing with AI and they will have heard terms like, "Oh, that's just AI slop."
303. 1:02:45Like what we're doing right now is AI slop. Retrotape.netify.app. What is that? Is that a game maker?
304. 1:03:04But anyway, like this is AI slop, but it's not like I we could be doing anything tonight. We could be making
305. 1:03:14a fourtrack cassette recorder on screen. Like, it's just this is all about the ideas that you have. This is no different than
306. 1:03:26This is no different than if you went and learned to code. Now, those people that are engineers are going to be like, "That's [ __ ]
307. 1:03:34This is not the same as coding. You can't go in and fix anything." I know. [laughter] You know why? Cuz I never learned to
308. 1:03:42code. And you want to know the sad [ __ ] reality is I wouldn't have gone in and fixed it anyway because I
309. 1:03:48wouldn't have finished it in the first place. because I wouldn't have taken seven years to figure out how to code
310. 1:03:53well enough to do something like this. So, we're in we're we're in territory. Wait, try this. Oh, try it while this is
311. 1:04:02building. All right. So, while that's building Lunarlander, we're going to go to retroape.net. That's a bad URL.
312. 1:04:12RetroAP. Oh, is this a tape recorder? I bet it is.neti.com. netlifi.app. Share this tab instead. Oh, nice. [laughter]
313. 1:04:27Type your vibe. Um, let's see. Classic Zeppelin.
314. 1:04:41Create mix. [laughter]
315. 1:04:58>> [music] >> You know what's funny is I'm old enough to know how to use this [laughter] [music]
316. 1:05:13Oh, [music] [music] [laughter]
317. 1:05:28all the same. Oh, the sea [singing and music] was red in the sky.
318. 1:05:45Oh, Robert Plant, you're such a Oh, you're so sweet and sexy. All right, Luna Landanda. Here we are, people. We've got the Luna Lander.
319. 1:05:57All right, we're going to we're going to we're going to play. This was also 1979. Fascinating. Enter. Oh, [laughter]
320. 1:06:11[music] [music]
321. 1:06:29[laughter] [laughter] let me How How do I I got to make it bigger because I can't see the sides of the game.
322. 1:06:44Wait, why? Oh, okay. There we go. There we go. Okay. [music]
323. 1:07:04It's the physics are too weird. If we're too close to the planet, [music]
324. 1:07:19[music] okay, it's bad bad physics. Okay, bad physics. Um by the time I can see the ground
325. 1:07:35I am at term [clears throat] velocity. Um maybe zoom out further.
326. 1:07:50Um or make the gravity of the planet less intense. Also make the ship
327. 1:08:06make the whole game. Um look like black and white
328. 1:08:21um CRT with scan lines and no color. All right. [clears throat]
329. 1:08:35Were you better at these 40 years ago? Tik Tok pin. That's hilarious. That's Listen, this is not about my skills as
330. 1:08:43as a trigger twitching video gamer from the 70s. I was pretty [ __ ] good. I mean, I wasn't world record good.
331. 1:08:52Like, I couldn't play Pac-Man at all, [laughter] but I got pretty good at Centipede and Asteroids. I could kick ass. This is
332. 1:09:01about This is about vibe coding getting the physics wrong. It's not this not a me problem. This is a coding problem. I
333. 1:09:09got a shitty engineer here giving me shitty physics. It's making me look bad. And you're just out there like, "Oh,
334. 1:09:16isn't he shouldn't Kyle suck less?" Yes, that is not the point. [laughter] Dig dug. That would be a good one. URL
335. 1:09:28for Claude. Any free subscription points? Uh, I don't know. I think that's really bad. claude.ai is the is
336. 1:09:38the URL. Tik Tok pin. 1979. I spent a lot of time watching my boyfriend play these things. Exactly. This is This is what we did.
337. 1:09:50This is what we did. We take the bus to the mall. Hey, you going out to the mall today? I was in York, Pennsylvania.
338. 1:09:56That's how everybody talked. Hey, Kyle, you going down to the mall today? Yeah. No, I got to get uh some oral changed in
339. 1:10:03my car. Yeah. No, I'll see you at the mall later. You're going to you're going to be at the arcade. Yeah.
340. 1:10:10Yeah. That was what I grew up with. Yeah. I I I had to [ __ ] escape. I I got to my senior year and I'm like,
341. 1:10:20uh, I'm out of here. And people are like, why would you leave? Hey, where are you going? Oh, you're going to Penn
342. 1:10:27State. You're going way out there. Are you coming back? Like, no. Why not? Why are you staying? Anyone Anyone else escaped their
343. 1:10:39hometown like that? One of the reasons I love New York City is I feel like New York City is a city full of people who had that attitude
344. 1:10:48about their hometown. I got to get the [ __ ] out of here. [laughter] >> [laughter] >> Oh, you going down to the mall today?
345. 1:11:03You taking a bus? Yeah. [laughter] I escaped my home country. Vicki. Vicki couldn't take an entire continent. She's like, "Out.
346. 1:11:15[clears throat] Done. Done with your little walab bees and your [ __ ] kicking kangaroo jackabe things. I'm
347. 1:11:26gone. I'm out. You giant tarantula spiders. [laughter] Tasmanian devil my ass. I'll be in Illinois. [laughter]
348. 1:11:43Oh, that was England. Oh, you escaped to Australia. Oh, you had to get away from the tea and crumpets crowd. Good for
349. 1:11:50you. Okay. All right. Let's see. We're We're back to Lunar Lander now. Let's see if we have a game here now. Finally. Is itable?
350. 1:12:00Yeah, that's good. This is playable. Okay, this is much better. [music] The internet landed.
351. 1:12:16Haha. H. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. Okay. The the ship is is out of scale to the landing spots. Do you know do you know that um
352. 1:12:35this is essentially what the the SpaceX the SpaceX rockets that land this is essentially what they're doing without
353. 1:12:44humans having to play on a keyboard. Come on. Yay. 100 points. [laughter]
354. 1:13:02[music] [music] Ah, this is giving me an anxiety [laughter]
355. 1:13:16attack. That's really good. Okay, so we got to make one one more fix. Um, the ship uh is too large relative to the pads
356. 1:13:31and doesn't look like the original. And the terrain [clears throat] of the original
357. 1:13:48had higher peaks and valleys. Um, if you're new here, if you don't know what I'm doing, I'm on claude.ai. I'm vibe coding classic video
358. 1:14:05games from the 70s and 80s. Um, and uh, yeah, that's what I'm doing. ChatGpt updates worth mentioning. Chat GPT.
359. 1:14:19When you put chat GPT in advanced voice mode now, rather than just seeing that glowing ball, you actually see the words
360. 1:14:26she's saying are transcribed on screen. Um, I assume you can probably set a setting so you can see your words as
361. 1:14:33well, but I think the default is that you can't, but I don't know about that. Um, the other thing chat GPT has now is group chat,
362. 1:14:43which is actually kind of cool. So if if you go to chat GPT, well actually while that's while that's doing its thing, I'll show you this.
363. 1:14:54So go to chat GPT and in in the upper right hand corner right here it says start group chat and then I say start group chat
364. 1:15:12and then it gives you the chat link which you can share with your friends and then what's cool is your group chats
365. 1:15:21now show up in this lefth hand are as distinct group chats and they let you know like these have blue dots that
366. 1:15:29people have added to those group chats chats since I've seen them last. You can either have a chat in it like a slack
367. 1:15:35channel or if you hit at chatgpt and then put in a prompt it'll trigger a prompt that everyone else can see. So
368. 1:15:44those are pretty cool. All right, back to lunar lander. Re-calibrated ship's proportions. Increasing height for more dramatic
369. 1:15:56stuff. Adjust camera to show terrain better. Oh, yeah. There was that's that's a thing that that Lunar Lander
370. 1:16:02did is as you got closer to the Earth, it zoomed in. That's what we got to add to this. But look at the graphics. Look at the the
371. 1:16:11the scan lines of like the CRT thing. It's like it's really good at that. That's that's some that's some badass coding
372. 1:16:22cuz that's all done with, you know, drawing [ __ ] Wait, apparently Grock 4.1 got thinking mode. Oh, by the way,
373. 1:16:36here are two unsung heroes. not heroes. Two things that people aren't talking a lot about. Grock image generation and
374. 1:16:45video generation is really good. Grock 4.1 is pretty good. It made the spaceship look like a butt plug. [laughter] [laughter]
375. 1:16:58This is a very different kind of game. >> [laughter] >> That's [ __ ] hilarious.
376. 1:17:13I'll land your lunar, if you get what I mean. [laughter] Okay. All right. This does look Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay.
377. 1:17:29Oh, this this is this is this is totally an anxiety game. >> [music] >> Hey.
378. 1:17:43[music] Yeah, it's got to zoom in. Okay, hang on. So, okay. Um, one final tweak.
379. 1:17:58The original Lunar lander. I'm going to put in quotes. Zoomed in
380. 1:18:12when you got close enough to the surface
381. 1:18:26to make it. Let's listen. Uh, let's replicate that. Okay, that's off doing its thing. And now we're going to have This is This is
382. 1:18:40really cool. So So these are all just standalone HTML files, right? So hear me out here. I think the next thing to do
383. 1:19:01I think the next thing to do is is go get sued by Atari. [laughter] No, I think I think the next thing to do
384. 1:19:14is you make yourself a little web-based video arcade, right? So, you you've got some video games. You click on a video
385. 1:19:20game and it it loads it loads this game. Kyle [laughter] accidentally vibe codes Retro Pi. I know that's the thing is
386. 1:19:30like you can get for $27 you can get, you know, a handheld game device that's got an HD screen on it that plays every
387. 1:19:37video game ever invented. The actual the actual code from the actual asteroids. Um, so, so what we're doing here is not
388. 1:19:46all that unique other than we now live in a world where someone who's never coded before can just speak
389. 1:19:55something relatively sophisticated into existence. Um, this would be great for job interviews, vibe code, and classic games. Discuss
390. 1:20:06Claude AI and chat GBT features. Oh, that's that AI bot. Who built that AI bot and who keeps inviting it to the
391. 1:20:15chat? I don't hate it. Um, [laughter] but but what is it? I know it's not a person cuz it's it's it's uh its output
392. 1:20:24is consistent. I just I have a sneaky suspicion it's Lord Digital Gods. But if it's not you, who did that? I wonder if actually that's
393. 1:20:40you know what's kind of cool about whoever whoever created the AI chatbot that is sitting in the Tik Tok chat right now.
394. 1:20:49That's kind of a cool That's kind of a cool thing. So imagine having a s a surrogate that could go that could go
395. 1:21:05um attend lives for you and just every periodically when the subject changes the bot goes hey here's what's going on
396. 1:21:16in the learning lab right now and then you just you just drop in for the [ __ ] like if you want to skip me singing and
397. 1:21:22the dogs and me rambling for a bit you just want to start when I start building [ __ ] You could have a bot that just tells you
398. 1:21:29that. That's pretty slick. So, I don't know if whoever built that, that's what they're doing. Just make a copy of every
399. 1:21:35game that was popular and win the Nostalgia game. Yeah, that's pretty cool. I like that. Uh uh uh. Okay. All right. Let's see.
400. 1:21:45Press enter to start. [music] Yes. Look at that. Uhoh. Except now that
401. 1:22:00we're zooming in, we've lost the ship. Okay. Wait, it's okay. Hang on. Okay. Right idea. But you are doing continue
402. 1:22:16US zoom and we lose the ship at some level of zoom.
403. 1:22:34The original only had two um [clears throat and cough] views
404. 1:22:48far and close. Nothing dynamic. Uh nothing dynamic. Um,
405. 1:23:02nothing dynamic. And then let's see. Um, yeah. Um, make sure I can still
406. 1:23:16see the ship. >> [sighs] >> I mean, the other thing to do with this would be to add a database to it so that
407. 1:23:30people can log in and record their own scores. And then you could do um a high scoreboard that could go, you know, you could do a
408. 1:23:40daily, monthly, yearly high scoreboard and just do it like the originals had it. I mean, I guess arcade games,
409. 1:23:53their leaderboard reset every time they unplugged turned off the machine, right? Which was every night. [laughter]
410. 1:24:04I go to producerbot to periodically say black bar. [laughter] He's weird. Nobody wants >> I don't either. He's weird.
411. 1:24:19>> Driving me crazy. >> You're driving mama crazy. >> Okay. >> All right. >> I know. He's neurotic. [clears throat]
412. 1:24:33He's not weird. He's irregular. [laughter] Who knew that irregular irregularness would invade my entire life? >> [laughter]
413. 1:24:45>> I just wanted to start a Tik Tok channel. I didn't realize this was going to be all consuming. All right, here we go. Do we have a
414. 1:24:55video game yet? The sound is a little [music] Oh,
415. 1:25:09this is right. But we still don't have a Okay. Okay. Zoom level is correct,
416. 1:25:24but when zoomed the ship disappears. That's bad. [laughter]
417. 1:25:39Coming from archetypal where I remember going to every arcade in the country and getting high scores on all
418. 1:25:49the games. I used the initials AA. That would have been funnier in in the right frigin account. [laughter] Oh, that's comedy. That's comedy.
419. 1:26:05It's comedy, I tell you. Lunarlander was such a stupid simple game, you know? I I gotta tell you like the
420. 1:26:18maybe this is just me being old. There's something about the simplicity and the the predictable physics and and just
421. 1:26:27clean physics of like a simple plane, you know, 2D 2D game mechanic that is uh it's just satisfying. You don't have to use much of your
422. 1:26:42brain. I think that's I think that's the thing that I'm I'm enamored with with AI right now is like I've never been more creatively
423. 1:26:52inspired or alive, but I'm not having like it's not it's not as painful to just make [ __ ] you know? You know what I'm saying, people?
424. 1:27:05Yeah. I'll tell you what I'm saying. I'm saying this. I'm saying that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, okay. Last chance before we tell it it's a
425. 1:27:18piece of [ __ ] [music] Yes. No.
426. 1:27:42>> [music] [music]
427. 1:27:57[music] >> Ah, [laughter] this is total anxiety. [laughter]
428. 1:28:12NO. [laughter] H. It's pretty good now.
429. 1:28:36>> [music] >> Yes. [music] It doesn't quite understand where to put
430. 1:28:51the 3x pads, does it? They were harder to get to. It's all halfbaked, though. Is it is it halfbaked user 5315143769922
431. 1:29:11halfbaked like your username? Like seriously, [laughter] you should change your username to something like user 12467
432. 1:29:21or something like, you know, not halfbaked. Like yours is like raw dough. But anyway, what's halfbaked about it?
433. 1:29:31That it's not perfect? that it took me 15 minutes to make this. I don't get it. Kind of right. Yeah, it's a clone. It's not I didn't
434. 1:29:47tell it to like go copy the code. It's generating original code. What are we making today? I am uh just
435. 1:29:59making classic video games. I started out with I started out with um with Asteroids, which is actually pretty
436. 1:30:06good. The Asteroids game's pretty good. And And then someone said make Pong, which we did. And then I made Defender and it sucked.
437. 1:30:19And now I made Lunar Lander. It took me a little bit, but that's now playable. That's pretty good. Let's see. Here's Asteroids.
438. 1:30:34I guess what I'm saying is that you can only get so far while you're right about your creativity. Um, well, here's the deal. The the the
439. 1:30:52couple of things about this channel and and my [sighs] where I stand with AI. I will be the first to admit that AI
440. 1:31:06right now is a janky piece of [ __ ] But there's a couple of things that I know having been through one of these cycles
441. 1:31:16before. I was there for the early days of the worldwide web and I did some [ __ ] back then. What I know is that AI is not going
442. 1:31:25away. And what I know after coming live um seven nights a week for a year and then five nights a week since then for
443. 1:31:36essentially the past 3 years, two and a half years. Is that where these tools are today versus where they were 3 years ago is
444. 1:31:45staggeringly different. Like the quality of this Asteroids game here, let me play this game for a little bit.
445. 1:31:55Now, like the scalees a little bit wrong, but like the scan lines, the physics, um the little [ __ ] annoying, anxiety
446. 1:32:06producing UFO, like this was a singleshot prompt. This was like, make me an asteroids clone that's got a 70s
447. 1:32:14vibe to it. Look at the ghosting of the of the CRT and look at the ghosting of the word asteroids in the
448. 1:32:21CRT. I didn't ask it to do that. It just did that. So like this game compared to where these things were even a year ago is staggering.
449. 1:32:33And so my philosophy on this stuff is if it's not going away, then we as human beings have two choices. You deal with it or not.
450. 1:32:49And if you're on the sidelines just bitching about how not perfect it is, you're not actually in the game. You're
451. 1:32:56not actually in the conversation. And that means that AI is going to happen to you. And that's going to [ __ ] suck.
452. 1:33:03So, so I appreciate the comment, but what I would encourage you to do is start playing. Like really get engaged.
453. 1:33:11If you're really good at coding and you think that how far this got is kind of halfbaked and halfassed, great. get in
454. 1:33:17there and learn how to vibe code so you can do it better, you know? Um, just cool vibe coding stuff, but frustrating
455. 1:33:25to get a finished product. I agree. I agree. Listen, this is why I think that I think there's such a massive [ __ ]
456. 1:33:33opportunity. If you've got coding skills and you can vibe code for the next 3 years, you're going to likely be hirable
457. 1:33:43because what's going to happen is Yahoos like me are going to go like, I can make an app now. And they're going to go make
458. 1:33:49an app and they're going to [ __ ] something up and they're going to [ __ ] up the security and they're going to
459. 1:33:53[ __ ] up the user off and they're going to lose someone's data and they're going to be in a panic and
460. 1:33:58they're they're going to say, "Who can help me? And if you can help solve that problem, that's a [ __ ] career for at least
461. 1:34:05three years, right? As these things get better, they're going to get good enough, you know, probably soon. But
462. 1:34:13but, you know, anyway, I just encourage you not to just, you know, swipe at, you know, people exploring and just
463. 1:34:22explore and be constructive and and like get good at this [ __ ] and teach other people. Like if you're really good at
464. 1:34:28this stuff, then join the AI salon and come teach people. I think you misunderstood where I was coming from probably. [laughter]
465. 1:34:48Okay, I'm totally [laughter] a fan. Yeah, listen. Listen again. I don't I love constructive dialogue and I
466. 1:34:58probably do sort of over interterpret and get defensive when people come in sniping because here here's the deal.
467. 1:35:04Most people come in if they come in sniping if they come in hot for the most part they haven't played
468. 1:35:12with this stuff. The fact that you vibe coded and you know that it's really hard to do something good. I agree. But I can
469. 1:35:17tell you this, Gemini 3 and Claude 4.5 Opus, like these things are way [ __ ] better than anything I've gotten, you
470. 1:35:27know, even close to with previous models. Like these two models in particular, Claude and Gemini 3 are
471. 1:35:34[ __ ] insane. And and uh and Chat GPT 5.1 is not bad, but the these two are of a different level. Um yeah, and and quite frankly, um if
472. 1:35:46you want to continue the conversation, join the AI salon. So if you come to um community.thesalon.ai, if you could pop that up on the screen
473. 1:35:55there there, uh Brandon, that would be fantastic. [clears throat] Groovy. Um all right. What else do I want to look at? Do I
474. 1:36:06want to look at anything else? It's getting late. 9:41. 9:41, I tell you. Oh, it's fantastic. That's fantastic, people. Yeah. Join the
475. 1:36:17join the AI salon. Join the AI salon. And uh I put the uh the Asteroids game, the Asteroids game, the pong game, and I
476. 1:36:27think the original Defender, which is unplayable, [laughter] are all in the AI salon right now. That first Defender game was really bad.
477. 1:36:38[laughter] Oh man, 3D Queen became the number 19 in the fan club. Thank you 3D Queen. Welcome. You know, I think you're cool if they
478. 1:36:51actually had like open- source project for vibe coding. Um, I'm pretty sure they do. There's definitely there's definitely
479. 1:37:06things where you can you can run models And I would think on Hugging Face there's got to be some vibe coding [ __ ] there.
480. 1:37:15I would I would be really surprised if there wasn't. I don't I don't pay a ton of attention to the open source world
481. 1:37:20just because it's too it's moving too fast. Um okay, so tomorrow at 400 PM um I've got the um AI readiness project
482. 1:37:29podcast at 4 p.m. Mountain time. Um, so if you go to a readiness project.com, um, you can see information for where to
483. 1:37:38find it and you can also get the information on the AI salon. Um, my co-host of the AI readiness project is
484. 1:37:47Annne Murphy and Anne Murphy and I are also doing AI Festivus and so AI Festivus is December 26th and 27th. It's free. Um,
485. 1:38:03and it's 9:00 am to 900 pm Friday and Saturday. So, 12 straight hours of AI education by like badasses across our two
486. 1:38:17communities. So, basically what what Ann and I have done is I've got the AI salon, she's got she leads AI. We
487. 1:38:23basically pull our communities and ask people outside our communities to give up an hour on their holiday weekend and come
488. 1:38:32share for all of you good people. Um it's a remarkable event. So aifestivist.com. Go register right now and tell your
489. 1:38:41friends and family. You're you're probably at your family, you know, where you grew up with all those people that
490. 1:38:48think you're weird because you like AI. invite them to Festivus. Go sign up. It's 12 It's [laughter] It's It's 24
491. 1:38:57hours of programming over two days between the holidays and New Year. [laughter] Why? Cuz we're crazy. [laughter]
492. 1:39:12Oh, man. All right. [laughter] Okay, let's see.
493. 1:39:28My arch nemesis went by the handle ZZZ. He was pretty famous on the circuit. [laughter] That's a spicy butt plug. All right,
494. 1:39:38y'all. I'm gonna get out of here. Oh, it looks like Streamyard is is crapping out, so it's probably time. Yes, it is. Okay.
495. 1:39:48All right. Uh, I'm going to get out of here. Um, tomorrow's Wednesday and then we're going to take Thursday and Friday
496. 1:39:54off and next week I'm in New York City. Um, we've got an AI salon presents meeting next Tuesday. Um, and uh,
497. 1:40:06and so that'll be happening. And then these lives are going to be um, opportunistic. So I will probably go
498. 1:40:14live from New York City a couple of times. Might be during the day when I've just got time to kill. I'll just throw
499. 1:40:20on a live. So, pay attention to that. All right. Fun tonight. Cool. AI generated gamedev. Join the AI salon.
500. 1:40:29I Whoever built the AI bot, will you please raise your hand and tell me that you built that thing? I want to know the story of it. It's
501. 1:40:37pretty cool. I don't see how you don't have a million yet. Um, thank you the city. I don't either, quite frankly. Um, Twitter
502. 1:40:51doesn't like me for some reason. I Here's the deal. I don't play their stupid [ __ ] engagement farming games.
503. 1:40:57I'm not selling ice buckets and Madagascar vanilla beans, and I'm not twerking. I mean, I will happily shake
504. 1:41:05my ass if if you all want that. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll I'll get up. I'll put on some some new new jam from some
505. 1:41:14new artist that will play like 16 bars of it and I'll do the little choreography. [gasps] I don't know. I don't know. But thank
506. 1:41:26you for the compliment. If you know anyone, if you know anyone, well, actually, here's the deal. Invite your
507. 1:41:32friends and keep coming back. I do this five nights a week for about two hours a night, starting at 8:00 p.m. Mountain
508. 1:41:38time. So, anyway. All right, Groovy. Peace out, everyone. I hope you had fun tonight. Bye. [clears throat]
