Description
This lively discussion explores the transformative impact of AI, focusing on the newly released image generation capabilities of ChatGPT. This visual element is predicted to broaden AI's appeal, attracting users previously uninterested in text-based AI. Kyle Shannon emphasizes the significance of this development, comparing it to the initial release of ChatGPT, and suggests its accessibility and visual output will compel wider adoption and experimentation. However, this progress also raises concerns about potential job displacement in creative fields.
Counterbalancing this concern is the observation that early adopters of AI are leveraging these tools to achieve remarkable results, venturing into projects far beyond their previous expertise. The discussion highlights examples of individuals launching apps and businesses within hours, demonstrating the empowering potential of AI. The speaker urges active engagement with AI, emphasizing the importance of community and experimentation.
The conversation also touches upon the evolution of storytelling, envisioning a future where creators establish frameworks within which audiences can co-create, challenging traditional notions of authorship and intellectual property.

Sam mman personally wrote all of 10:43 these 10:44 lessons I don't know if you knew that he 10:46 has a real passion for 10:48 education and 10:50 uh so they created an academy um I 10:54 actually think this is really cool I 10:55 think it's uh it's good it's 10:58 smart um 11:00 they have realized 11:03 that if they want to put tools out for 11:06 the public to use which they've 11:07

up 14:25 to I don't know yet I don't know what I 14:28 what I want to do tonight I might just I 14:30 might just wax philosophic because I'm 14:32 I've got a late start so I might just 14:35 talk about future of work 14:38 [Music] 14:41 stuff I started writing an 14:45 article about being an only 14:48 child you're like oh my this is we're 14:52 gonna do a little self-revelation here 14:54 is that what's happening I thought it 14:57 was is it this is the AI learning lab it 15:00 it seems like he's going into some sort 15:01 of art autobiographical oneman show 15:04 could we not do that how do I I just 15:07 want to learn how to make money with 15:08 chat GPT can I you can make money with 15:11 chat GP yeah that's I saw those Tik toks 15:13 I want to do that I want to make money 15:15 with chat jbt could he just teach us 15:17 that and not talk about his childhood 15:19 that would be that would be appropriate 15:21 I would think 15:22 [Laughter] 15:29 [Music] 15:30 ton Todd in the same time zone Mountain 15:33 Standard very nice there will be tears 15:36 [Laughter] 15:40 [Music] 15:46 tonight um 15:53 um 15:55 um uh 16:00 so where do I want to go with 16:04 this 16:07 okay I'm not going to start with story 16:10 time because it doesn't really [ __ ] 16:20 matter two two things happen in the 16:24 salon tonight 16:26 that are related and I and I think are 16:30 important and and are are counterveiling 16:35 forces I don't quite know what the word 16:38 counterveiling means but it's very 16:40 poetic and I like it so I think it's 16:48 right he's still doing this wow oh this 16:52 doesn't stop here here's the deal with 16:54 this channel here's the deal with this 16:56 channel 16:57 um some nights like last night it'll be 17:02 two hours of time you can't get 17:07 back most 17:09 nights there's a solid 15 minutes where 17:12 you're like that was worth 17:15 it last night wasn't one of those 17:21 um it may not come as a surprise to you 17:25 based on that comment I don't have an 17:27 agenda and I don't really give a [ __ ] 17:29 whether I have an 17:32 agenda here's the purpose of these lives 17:36 I mean if you want to come here and 17:37 learn just come here night after night 17:39 after night you'll learn but but the 17:40 whole point of this isn't really about 17:42 what I'm talking about can be 17:44 interesting very often not what this is 17:47 really about is you just being in the 17:50 conversation about 17:52 AI just kind of taking it in and while 17:54 you're listening to me or put me in the 17:56 background and be making pictures in in 17:59 open ai's new thing or over in mid 18:01 Journey or making songs over here or 18:03 figuring out how to prompt 18:06 Manis chatting with people in the 18:09 comments and asking questions is you 18:11 know if is he ever going to make a point 18:13 you know that sort of [ __ ] this is about 18:15 the community it's about interacting and 18:18 it's about just being in the 18:19 conversation of AI so yeah I may not get 18:21 to anything tonight so yes I'm still 18:23 doing this and I'll keep doing this for 18:25 a while so so if you don't like it get 18:28 out 18:30 um 18:31 okay so two things happened tonight 18:34 counterveiling 18:36 forces or not not two things two themes 18:39 emerge tonight that I that I think are 18:41 counterveiling 18:43 themes 18:46 um one of them was echoed by both Leah 18:50 who I co-founded and co-host the salon 18:52 with and and myself we we both felt this 18:54 and then a couple other people were 18:55 talking about it too is that the 19:00 the new image gen from chat 19:02 GPT 19:04 um is a big big big big big [ __ ] deal 19:08 it's a big [ __ ] 19:09 deal now it's not perfect it's it's 19:12 janky it doesn't always do [ __ ] right 19:14 but it's a big [ __ ] 19:16 deal tonight for the first time I kind 19:19 of felt 19:24 like it 19:26 is yeah it can't be that big I feel like 19:29 it's in the neighborhood of as important 19:32 as chat 19:34 GPT and here's why I feel like it's in 19:36 that neighborhood that because it's 19:39 visual because it makes images and 19:43 because it can make images that look 19:45 like complete layouts and you can make 19:48 magazine covers and print ads 19:50 and crazy photos and character 19:54 consistency like there's just so many 19:56 things that it does in the context of a 19:58 coners 20:01 ation that you really can't get your 20:04 head around it you can't believe it you 20:06 can't believe like oh we can do that now 20:09 and and people who've been in AI for a 20:11 while are like well you know you could 20:13 you could do that stuff in Leonardo you 20:16 know six months ago okay yeah but you 20:18 had to [ __ ] learn the interface of 20:19 Leonardo and you had to go over there 20:21 you had to be aware enough to go over 20:22 there and do that this is inside chat 20:25 GPT it's just doing this magical kind of 20:28 [ __ ] what 20:30 happened I'm not I'm not showing 20:32 anything Brandon yeah 20:36 um and 20:39 so for the first time it feels to me 20:42 like because it's 20:45 visual people that have been not paying 20:47 attention to AI because it was all text 20:50 for the most part like it made pictures 20:52 but it it didn't compel them to go there 20:55 they're going to see these outputs and 20:57 go I got to learn how to do this and 20:59 they're going to go into chat GPT and 21:01 they're going to see what it does and 21:03 they're going to have one of those face 21:04 melting Kevin McAllister 21:07 moments 21:09 and I look at the 21:12 output of image 21:15 gen and for the first time I viscerally 21:19 felt this is going to cost people jobs 21:23 now I think I think coding you know the 21:25 coding's been getting better and better 21:27 and better I think I think coding jobs 21:29 tech jobs we're going to start to see um 21:32 that industry you know hit um I think 21:36 writing copyrighting things like that 21:38 we've seen we've seen some impacts there 21:40 that's going to get more dramatic but 21:42 there's something about the visual thing 21:44 that that it just all of a sudden felt 21:46 like viscerally like this is going to 21:49 cost jobs so that was one of the themes 21:52 is that this is a big deal you've got to 21:54 pay attention to it the implications of 21:57 it are are 22:00 big and potentially 22:03 devastating one 22:05 theme the other theme was before we 22:08 started the salon we were 22:10 talking and Adnan who was one of the 22:13 guys that spoke that that is one of the 22:15 co-authors of the book um said oh I just 22:18 launched my IOS app and I didn't know he 22:21 had an IOS 22:23 app but he just said I just launched my 22:26 ILS app and then Leah um from the the 22:29 salon said oh I I spent four hours today 22:32 and I I launched a print OnDemand brand 22:37 I was like wait what I didn't know you 22:39 were doing that um and then there were a 22:42 couple other people that were talking 22:43 about their projects and and the other 22:46 theme that kind of 22:47 emerged is that people who've been in 22:51 this conversation back to the reason for 22:53 this whole Channel or the whole reason 22:55 for this channel being in the 22:57 conversation 22:59 the people who've been in actively in 23:01 this AI conversation for some 23:05 time are starting to do some really 23:08 remarkable things and it's really 23:10 remarkable things that are way outside 23:12 what their expertise was a year ago like 23:16 way outside of 23:18 it and so on one hand you've got this 23:22 technology that's going to cost people 23:24 jobs and then on the other hand you've 23:26 got these people who are like huh these 23:31 tools can give me superpowers why don't 23:33 I just see what I can do with these 23:35 superpowers and like oh [ __ ] I can build 23:38 an IOS app and launch it oh [ __ ] I can 23:41 build a whole print on demand brand and 23:44 launch the website in four hours that's 23:47 what Leah did it's 23:50 like and so like where my head is right 23:54 now is 23:55 like you got to get off the [ __ ] 23:58 Sidelines you got to get off the [ __ ] 23:59 Sidelines if you if you're if you're 24:01 [ __ ] footing around AI if you're 24:03 tiptoeing around the edges of this I'll 24:05 get to it next week [ __ ] 24:08 that like get your ass in it start 24:12 building start playing start putting 24:14 [ __ ] together um someone can pin the the 24:17 Tik Tok okay I was on a podcast 24:20 today and they had the the same thoughts 24:23 about job 24:24 loss yeah that that there's going to be 24:28 this de 24:30 right and unfortunately because of our 24:33 [ __ ] news 24:36 media the decimation is the only thing 24:38 that's going to get 24:41 covered but what's going to happen is 24:44 some percentage of those people that 24:45 lose their jobs are going to go well 24:48 [ __ ] it I better learn AI if AI cost me 24:50 my job i' better go learn what this 24:52 thing is and those people are are going 24:55 to rise out of the ashes and come over 24:57 here to this other side and start to do 24:59 some really remarkable 25:02 [ __ ] but it's like there was a there was 25:04 a woman in the salon tonight named 25:06 Heather and she was a technologist and 25:07 she was saying I don't really get AI 25:09 it's like I love coding and I do coding 25:11 and I try to use AI for coding and it 25:13 just feels cold and it feels and she's 25:16 only using AI as an augmentation to what 25:18 she already knows and loves she loves to 25:20 code and she's good at coding and so her 25:24 use of AI to do the same thing she knows 25:27 and loves is is cold and disappointing 25:30 because it's not perfect it's janky it's 25:32 all that 25:34 stuff what we talked about tonight is 25:36 well I bet if she starts to explore 25:40 things that are not the core of who she 25:42 is maybe stuff that she didn't even 25:44 think she could ever 25:46 do write a 25:48 song make a movie whatever it might be 25:51 that's not coding that's not at her 25:55 core that maybe there's some magic out 25:57 there 25:59 and I just I like my my instinct is we 26:03 we did I think it was last week we did a 26:07 chat where chat GPT came up with this 26:10 new novel concept which which I 26:12 absolutely [ __ ] loved well I don't 26:13 know if it's new in novel it came up 26:15 with a concept I've never heard 26:17 before and it was talking about the 26:19 future of 26:21 Storytelling and it basically made this 26:24 hypothesis I said look at all of what's 26:26 going on in Ai and give me a new 26:29 hypothesis for 26:32 storytelling and it said the future of 26:35 Storytelling is going to see the death 26:37 of the the single 26:39 author right of the author the author of 26:42 a single 26:44 work that the value of producing a 26:46 single work is just going to diminish in 26:50 value 26:52 but the future of Storytelling is what 26:55 it what it coined 26:59 called emotional 27:01 architectures so that an author rather 27:04 than writing a book would come up with a 27:07 kind of language a kind of tone in 27:11 writing um stylesheets for how images 27:15 will be generated templates for how 27:17 songs will be generated um 27:22 um Frameworks for personas for creating 27:25 characters in this world will always be 27:27 created within certain 27:30 Frameworks and so what the author will 27:32 do is create the 27:33 framework where the audience can 27:36 co-create in that 27:40 world that's insane to me and like the 27:44 the the the author or the the Aur that I 27:48 was thinking about last week was Wes 27:51 Anderson right Wes Anderson's films are 27:54 they are their own world they have their 27:57 own look and feel they have on they cast 27:59 weird characters they dress them weird 28:01 they live in weird hotels in weird 28:04 cities they've got weird color 28:08 grading right there's a Wes Anderson 28:10 nness about those films he would be the 28:14 perfect person to create an emotional 28:17 architecture which is a whole framework 28:19 that you could create within there there 28:21 could be a metaverse that you enter but 28:24 there could also just be I'm going to 28:26 write stories and then I'm going to 28:28 bring those stories to life and those 28:30 characters are going to be Wes Anderson 28:32 like and the story is going to have a 28:34 Wes Anderson tone to it then we're going 28:37 to turn that into a film and then maybe 28:39 Wes Anderson even likes that and goes 28:41 and makes a film based on that 28:44 story but it's this whole world of 28:48 creativity and I could see that being a 28:50 whole ecosystem and a whole 28:54 economy and then all of a sudden I'm 28:56 like okay so we're going to lose 28:59 jobs for people that are making 29:01 individual pieces of work but we might 29:04 gain jobs in entire new economies that 29:07 we can't even imagine right 29:09 now and like those are the two 29:12 parallel counterveiling themes that I 29:15 see coming that there's this remarkable 29:18 amplification of capability for anyone 29:20 who chooses to have it and this [ __ ] 29:24 decimation of the way we used to work 29:29 and it's going to feel like the end of 29:30 the world and it's but it's not going to 29:32 be we're [ __ ] human we're resilient 29:34 we're going to respond to 29:36 this like one of the things that pisses 29:39 me off the most about how people are 29:41 talking about the impact of work is like 29:43 it's gonna cost one million 29:46 jobs okay understood how many is it 29:50 going to create well none it's going to 29:53 take them all 29:56 really there's not going to be new ways 29:59 of working that's going to require some 30:00 sort of 30:03 interaction I don't buy that I don't buy 30:05 it doesn't make any sense to 30:11 me I mean it's it's the literal 30:13 equivalent of if in the you know late 30:17 1800s you see the steam engine and 30:19 you're like 30:21 well I guess farmers are just going to 30:23 sit down on their bunks and 30:26 die no they 30:29 didn't they 30:32 left they left the 30:34 farm if you didn't need a 100 people 30:37 working to farm you only needed 10 30:38 because of the steam 30:40 engine those 90 where did they go did 30:43 they just stop and Whittle 30:47 no they went and they formed 30:51 cities what did they do in the cities 30:54 they invented the service 30:56 industry I'll make street meat I'll sell 31:01 my I'll buy a building and sell beds in 31:03 my 31:05 building right I'll polish your 31:09 shoes whole new economy that couldn't 31:11 have been imagined 31:19 before I find that tremendously exciting 31:22 but it's scary as 31:24 [ __ ] cuz we're 31:27 not we we don't 31:29 know like we don't know it could go 31:32 horribly wrong we had a discussion 31:34 tonight about Universal basic income and 31:37 you know someone was like I'm reading a 31:38 book right now and it sounds like they 31:40 just want us to take Universal basic 31:42 income so we stop working and they can 31:44 control 31:46 us um then why are all the farmers from 31:49 the 1800s Dead really good point Joker 31:52 that is true none of the none of the the 31:56 farmers or the city dwellers from the 31:58 late 1800s have survived to this day 32:02 great 32:03 Point great point so to that end AI will 32:07 kill us 32:12 all although hey not for nothing Joker 32:15 maybe uh maybe we start rejuvenating 32:18 ourselves and we will be here 150 years 32:21 from now that'd be kind of 32:25 cool life escape velocity indeed Lev if 32:29 you haven't Googled Lev or or gone into 32:31 your chat GPT and tell and say tell me 32:34 about life escape velocity that's that's 32:36 one to check 32:37 [Music] 32:40 out 32:43 thoughts lost in thought 32:45 Tuesday waxing poetically Kyle thank 32:50 [Music] 32:53 you as a race we have an uncanny ability 32:56 to trivialize the extraordinary 32:58 absolutely agree with 33:00 [Music] 33:26 that m 33:28 tumultuous 33:30 Tuesday it might be a tumultuous 33:33 Tuesday I you know I'm I'm I'm weirdly 33:37 hopeful it it was just amazing like 33:40 there were I think there were six people 33:42 on the on the Google meet that just kind 33:45 of went round robin and said what they 33:46 were 33:47 doing and every one of them was like 33:50 this new completely different thing 33:52 they'd never done 33:55 before like reinvention 34:01 of of their capacity as a 34:04 human because of AI like as a direct 34:06 result of 34:08 AI I didn't think I could do this thing 34:11 and then I went into chat JP T and I 34:13 said hey can I do this thing and then an 34:15 hour later I had an app published on the 34:17 App Store 34:22 what it's kind of 34:25 cool I still can't believe we aren't 34:28 screaming in amazement when we fly or 34:29 nearly at the speed of 34:31 sound yeah or in relative comfortably 34:34 chairs yeah exactly yeah I I 34:37 know well we see that we see that here 34:40 where I get all whiny because things 34:42 aren't perfect or things aren't fast 34:43 enough and I'm like wait I should 34:45 probably stop and take in the fact that 34:47 you know we now have a tool we now have 34:50 a tool this the thing that that just 34:52 absolutely boggles my mind it's people 34:56 like it's theft it's it's it's St from 34:58 the artists well okay most of the 35:01 artists died more than a hundred years 35:05 ago right most of what these things have 35:07 been trained on most of 35:09 it is the collective intelligence of 35:13 humanity right the collective output of 35:15 humanity and and there's a very small 35:17 percentage of those people that are 35:19 alive today that are like they stole my 35:23 [ __ ] but we've taken all the [ __ ] all of 35:27 the creative output 35:29 of 35:31 humanity all all is not quite the right 35:33 word some percentage I sound like Larry 35:36 David some 35:38 percentage some percentage of the output 35:40 of 35:41 humanity and we've squashed it into this 35:44 little gold 35:47 disc that we can just chat 35:50 into and outomes pictures and music and 35:55 art and 35:56 words and new Shakespearean sonnets that 35:59 have never existed 36:04 before this [ __ ] insane 36:09 [Music] 36:15 [Laughter] 36:18 [Music] 36:45 oh producer Brandon is telling me 36:47 there's been a chat GPT update dare we 36:50 let him share 36:51 [Music] 36:54 it what's insane is thinking 36:58 this will be 37:00 beneficial to most people under 37:05 [Music] 37:08 capitalism I don't I don't understand 37:10 what you 37:12 mean why is it insane to think that this 37:14 will be beneficial oh oh because yeah I 37:17 get that I I think there's a point at 37:22 which I I think there's a point at which 37:25 even the capitalists realize 37:28 you can't keep all the money right 37:30 there's a point at which society can't 37:32 sustain itself and they will come eat 37:34 you right so capitalists understand 37:38 there is a boundary we don't know where 37:40 it is we don't know how much they're 37:41 going to try to keep it all I absolutely 37:43 agree with you 37:45 there but but I I do think that what's 37:48 going to happen is there's got to be 37:50 relief 37:52 Valves and because these tools are so 37:54 capable anyone who's got even a modum of 37:57 ambition is going to be able to 38:00 generate um 38:02 value in the 38:04 economy um and and it it would be 38:06 foolish to not let people do that so I I 38:09 don't buy that purely dystopian 38:11 capitalism will [ __ ] everything up thing 38:14 because you know it it falls apart if no 38:17 one can spend 38:18 money is there an AI that can listen to 38:21 you playing the guitar and make a song 38:22 from it there is it's called sunno is 38:25 one of them um refusion can do it 38:28 it udio can do it and then there's a new 38:32 one that just came out that is 38:34 called the [ __ ] was it 38:37 called uh I don't know but just go to 38:39 sunno yeah you can I can do like 38:42 [Music] 38:50 yeah let's go do that all right let's go 38:53 make a song [ __ ] it oh wait all right 38:56 well uh uh okay we'll have Brandon up 39:00 show the thing yo and it's real quick 39:04 it's real quick uh I just thought it was 39:05 interesting um I so I went over to um 39:10 pop something into chat GPT while you 39:12 were waxing poetic in the chat Hall yes 39:16 and uh I can't get it to share my screen 39:19 so sharing mine yeah yeah yeah but so 39:23 this is live for me I don't know if it's 39:25 live for anybody else but um I went to 39:27 change my model and I 39:29 couldn't and then I noticed this think 39:32 button down here so I clicked on this 39:35 and so by default it's now saying quick 39:37 response for everyday questions and then 39:40 it gives you the ability to think a 39:42 little or think harder or you could 39:44 choose a model and so like if I just 39:47 wanted to think a little I don't know 39:49 which model it's using at that point um 39:51 or think harder I'm assuming is deep 39:53 research but where do you have think 39:57 it's just in the bar in my what can I 39:59 help you with bar it's not in mine 40:03 interesting so this is maybe this is the 40:06 change that's rolling out um well that's 40:09 that's very much like Claude actually 40:12 yeah so I can think little think harder 40:15 or I could go in and choose the model so 40:19 wow that was my update I I like it I 40:22 think it's solid it's uh it is it is yet 40:25 more proof that um 40:28 all of these companies are stealing each 40:31 other's interfaces because that's 40:32 basically Claude right Claude Claude 40:35 said we're not going to make you choose 40:36 a model we're just going to do Claude 40:37 and then Claude try harder and so so 40:40 opening I just stole that so there you 40:43 go thank you Brandon that's good awesome 40:47 fantastic fantastic Rob tell him what 40:49 he's 40:50 W 40:52 [Music] 40:54 um huh mine still has the models yeah 40:57 mine does too mine still has the models 41:00 let me look let me flip over to content 41:04 Evolution 41:05 account no that's still the 41:08 same back to my 41:12 account still the 41:15 same yeah you must have gotten access to 41:17 some some new groovy thing all right 41:19 let's go make a song with suoo suoo 41:24 suoo oh so sue me just sue me sue me 41:28 suo suo I don't even know how to say 41:31 your name is Ito or is it suo or is it 41:35 Sono hey while you get that screen share 41:38 back up and running I'm not sure if you 41:39 heard that uh AI uh the chat GPT has a 41:43 new voice that's more H sarcastic oh I 41:46 saw it yeah yeah yeah I saw it today 41:48 Monday and I don't know if it's an April 41:50 Fool's joke or if it's actually one of 41:51 the new voice models but oh no it's a 41:54 it's definitely a new voice model here 41:56 we can go we'll go look at it right now 41:58 um chat chat 42:00 je and we'll put it into voice 42:04 mode real state in Columbus says it's 42:07 only available for people in Ohio 42:09 because he has it oh good you found me H 42:14 yay and notice how they made it black 42:17 it's

are drying up 55:57 let's try 56:06 that 56:09 fact Mill's gone smoke in the it's so 56:14 funny I write I say write a song about 56:16 job loss and it goes back to the 56:18 industrial the Industrial 56:20 Age this this ain't about factories cost 56:24 and jobs this is computer work 56:30 [Music] 56:34 is 56:36 overun machines got smarter while we 56:39 stood still now we're running uphill 56:43 till we've had our F oh the jobs are 56:46 drying up like a forgotten well if 56:50 you're not AI curious you're casting a 56:54 spell the trains leaving in town and 56:57 it's moving 57:00 fastb ticket 57:03 or yeah I agree Jeff that's the best one 57:06 so far it pretty 57:10 [Music] 57:12 good feel 57:15 overun machines got smarter while we 57:18 stood still now we're running uphill 57:21 till we've had our F oh the jobs are 57:25 drying up like a fo Garden well if 57:28 you're not AI curious you're casting a 57:32 spell this Train's leaving town and it's 57:35 moving fast grab ticket or be in the all 57:41 the jobs are trying up like a forgotten 57:45 well if you're not AI curious you're 57:48 casting a spell this trains leaving town 57:52 and it's moving fast better grab a 57:55 ticket or be left in the 57:59 [Music] 58:01 past once we used our hands now our 58:04 minds took the stage but the stage hands 58:07 flipped it turn the page no more Paper 58:11 Trails just a cloud up high whisper in 58:16 Secrets only 58:17 machines all the jobs are drying up like 58:21 a fading stream if you can't keep up 58:25 it's a broken dream 58:27 this Train's Riding High with a not a CH 58:31 either grow gears fall out of 58:36 time I see the Curious Thrive like seeds 58:40 that Blom while the rest fade quiet 58:44 sealed in the room it ain't all bad 58:48 though the change is fast we're sheding 58:51 the present chasing the 58:53 forecast all the jobs are sinking like 58:57 the Setting Sun if you won't embrace it 59:01 your Run's all done this Train's got no 59:04 breaks it's an endless Drive hop aboard 59:09 quick if you want to survive 59:12 [Music] 59:29 oh the jobs are sinking like the 59:33 set if you won't embrace it your Run's 59:37 all done this Train's got no breaks it's 59:41 an endless Drive hop aboard quick if you 59:46 want tov 59:49 [Music] 1:00:01 [Music] 1:00:09 [Applause] 1:00:15 we got the Applause in 1:00:18 there that's pretty 1:00:20 good I mean imagine if you actually 1:00:24 tried right 1:00:28 and you know here's let me let me do a 1:00:31 little a little pontificating on this 1:00:34 because I think this is 1:00:42 important I could just go into sunno and 1:00:45 I could say make me a song about Ai and 1:00:47 it would make it and then I could just 1:00:49 put that out in the 1:00:51 world I could write lyrics and put that 1:00:55 into sunno and have it make just any old 1:00:58 song I could do what I just did record a 1:01:01 little bit of guitar and have that sort 1:01:02 of be the janky underpinnings of kind of 1:01:04 an interesting song I mean while that 1:01:07 guitar sounded weird and janky and and 1:01:11 kind of off it was kind of interesting 1:01:15 right it wasn't perfect which kind of 1:01:17 made it 1:01:19 interesting it didn't take me any more 1:01:21 or less time to do that than it would 1:01:24 have just to make a shitty 1:01:27 song and if I put in half an hour or an 1:01:30 hour to really work on the song really 1:01:33 work on the lyrics at the end of that 1:01:34 you can end up with 1:01:36 something that's actually really 1:01:39 good that the system itself would not 1:01:41 have just output anything near that 1:01:45 good and and I think this is one of the 1:01:47 things that 1:01:50 that people outside of AI have this 1:01:53 perception that AI is this big [ __ ] 1:01:55 golden butt 1:01:59 and then people just squirt out 1:02:02 [ __ ] 1:02:04 no 1:02:07 no all of the people that I know the 1:02:10 Irregulars on this channel the people in 1:02:11 the AI Salon the people that I [ __ ] 1:02:13 respect the creatives that that like 1:02:17 Christian Robbins of $11 Bill up and 1:02:20 Boulder who's like a 13-year creative 1:02:23 he's got his own Motion Graphics Company 1:02:25 he's all in on he can do anything he 1:02:27 wants with AI he knows all the tools he 1:02:29 knows how to do it and he knows how to 1:02:32 do it the oldfashioned way and he can 1:02:35 actually look at any given situation and 1:02:37 go oh you know what the old way to do it 1:02:39 was fine we'll just do it that way or 1:02:41 here's three workflows that are going to 1:02:43 make this better for the client and more 1:02:45 profitable for me as a business owner 1:02:48 he's thinking about it 1:02:50 critically the standard of work in his 1:02:53 case is still the standard of work he's 1:02:55 got to deliver to his client 1:02:57 science you can do good work with AI you 1:03:00 can good do good thoughtful creative 1:03:02 work and some of that good thoughtful 1:03:05 creative work you can do in 30 1:03:08 seconds why because you've been playing 1:03:11 with this [ __ ] for two years and you've 1:03:13 tried this same prompt 150 times 1:03:17 unsuccessfully and now you put it in a 1:03:19 model that just got updated and all of a 1:03:21 sudden it generates something good 1:03:22 you're like holy [ __ ] now it's good you 1:03:25 do one tweak to it and it's 1:03:28 great people from the outside would look 1:03:30 at that and go oh we only spent 30 1:03:32 seconds on it it's it's not valid work 1:03:34 it's not 1:03:36 valid it's [ __ ] valid if I say it's 1:03:40 valid I get to choose I get to choose 1:03:43 when I say this is work worth putting in 1:03:46 the 1:03:48 world art is not about the the the 1:03:53 creating 1:03:54 art is choos Ching when to 1:04:02 stop whether you're throwing paint on a 1:04:05 canvas or words on a page or prompts 1:04:08 into an AI all of those are generating 1:04:12 [ __ ] generate generate generate generate 1:04:15 generate and at some point you go huh I 1:04:18 think that looks like a painting and 1:04:20 then you look at it again you're like oh 1:04:21 no it doesn't and you scribble through 1:04:24 it you're over in the typewriter and 1:04:26 you're writing you're like I'm pretty 1:04:27 sure I've got a story here and then you 1:04:29 read through it you're like no I don't 1:04:31 keep 1:04:32 writing I'm over here prompting with 1:04:34 this tool it made a song it's kind of 1:04:36 janky it's kind of cool her voice is a 1:04:38 little too tinny I'd probably go back 1:04:40 and work on 1:04:42 that and at some point I go oh that's a 1:04:45 song oh that's a story oh that's a 1:04:50 painting that's the moment that art is 1:04:53 made when the person chooses to go yeah 1:04:56 willing to put my name on that and put 1:04:57 it out in the 1:05:02 world what the [ __ ] difference does it 1:05:04 make what tool you used it 1:05:11 doesn't you shouldn't be able to make 1:05:13 art that fast 1:05:17 why why does art have to be [ __ ] 1:05:21 torture artists are broke all the time 1:05:24 couldn't they at least have some ease in 1:05:27 [Laughter] 1:05:30 life does it always have to be torture I 1:05:33 mean sure torture generates good art 1:05:36 generally so 1:05:42 yeah I can finally produce a selection 1:05:45 of fun head shots like you 1:05:49 Kyle back porch style guitar 1:06:00 I don't know what you guys are talking 1:06:02 about but P's comment the the percentage 1:06:04 of bad or silly images is great yeah 1:06:06 listen don't get me 1:06:10 wrong most most crap generated from AI 1:06:16 is crap probably high 1:06:19 90% And then some amount of that idiots 1:06:25 just copy and paste and stick on Twitter 1:06:27 stick on LinkedIn and it's just [ __ ] 1:06:29 driil and it's horrible but here's the 1:06:32 thing the more of that that you see the 1:06:36 more obvious it becomes it's just 1:06:40 driil right you don't have to read it 1:06:42 for long to realize oh this is just 1:06:45 crap right but then you come onto 1:06:48 something that's kind of different 1:06:49 you're like huh that's 1:06:53 interesting well why was that 1:06:55 interesting I don't know cuz whoever 1:06:57 made it had a point of 1:06:58 view and then when you have a point of 1:07:00 view you can look at it and you can go 1:07:02 is this crap or is this not crap huh I 1:07:05 think it's not crap and then you put 1:07:06 that in the world that's the work that 1:07:08 will rise above the noise so I agree 1:07:11 most of the there's going to be just an 1:07:15 insufferable amount of 1:07:18 content but most of it won't matter 1:07:20 it'll just it'll just Flow by like a 1:07:21 river it's it's like we you know we've 1:07:24 gone from like a little teeny tiny tiny 1:07:26 stream to the to the [ __ ] Amazon 1:07:30 right near the ocean like where these 1:07:33 massive amounts of water is flowing 1:07:35 through this thing but we'll just be 1:07:38 looking at one little part of it and 1:07:40 some interesting thing will float down 1:07:41 the river and we'll go oh that's 1:07:43 interesting all the other stuff will 1:07:45 just Flow by it it won't matter it 1:07:48 doesn't matter that most stuff's crap 1:07:49 most stuff's crap right now most stuff 1:07:51 that people spend a lot of time on is 1:07:53 crap 1:07:57 it's been quite a wave of garbage since 1:07:59 40 magic some pearls though for sure 1:08:02 yeah well the pearls are people that 1:08:06 think thoughtfully about it right like 1:08:08 like the first person that did the 1:08:11 studio gibly thing and put it out there 1:08:13 that made everyone go oh I can just put 1:08:15 in studio gibli that was just like the 1:08:17 easy button right you 1:08:20 make and then you have people like like 1:08:22 I featured this one woman today let me 1:08:26 show you 1:08:37 [Music] 1:08:43 this so This Woman melis m i i l s u 1:08:50 s um she did this post oops I'm not 1:08:54 sharing that screen hang on hang on a 1:09:07 [Music] 1:09:11 sec 1:09:14 um to create this concept design 1:09:17 presentation I first shared the 1:09:18 requirements I first shared the 1:09:20 requirements and criteria with chat 1:09:23 gp40 I then briefly described the idea 1:09:25 in my mind and asked it to generate a 1:09:28 detailed sketch style 1:09:31 design afterwards I uploaded the site 1:09:34 image and requested a realistic render 1:09:39 so she generated this 1:09:42 thing out 1:09:46 of out of her prompt and her head and 1:09:49 her idea and her 1:09:53 brains and it's this cool thing that you 1:09:56 you know you could put into a you know a 1:09:58 presentation like here here's all the 1:10:00 elements we're going to create this 1:10:01 summer Pavilion it's made out of wood 1:10:03 it's 1:10:04 organic it's inspired by these little 1:10:07 sketches here here's sort of its 1:10:08 relative scale to 1:10:11 people here's the 1:10:13 footing it's got misspellings in it 1:10:15 because it's ai's 1:10:18 janky and then she uploaded that and 1:10:20 said make that real and chat GPT did 1:10:23 that 1:10:27 that's [ __ ] 1:10:30 brilliant and what did that take her 1:10:32 five minutes M let's say it took her 1:10:34 half an hour I'm I'm guessing it's five 1:10:37 minutes but let's say it's half an 1:10:41 hour she had some 1:10:44 idea maybe she's got drafting skills I 1:10:48 don't know that she does maybe she's a 1:10:49 carpenter and she just works with her 1:10:51 hands and she's never been able to 1:10:53 really visualize her ideas I don't I 1:10:56 don't know this woman from a ho in the 1:10:57 wall but I just thought like this is a 1:11:00 really interesting use 1:11:02 case of this new image 1:11:06 tool right there's thought behind it 1:11:10 it's not just squirting out the same old 1:11:11 [ __ ] everyone else is 1:11:13 doing and then she got to that and it's 1:11:18 like and so here's a question for you 1:11:21 let's say that this woman met some guy 1:11:24 at a party that works for the city and 1:11:26 he said oh you should apply for this 1:11:28 outdoor living space competition we're 1:11:31 doing and she's never applied for one of 1:11:34 those before and one of the requirements 1:11:36 is a sketch 1:11:38 document and she's never really sketched 1:11:42 before she just builds with her hands 1:11:44 but she's never really sketched before 1:11:45 and she puts this together in 15 minutes 1:11:47 this little sketch 1:11:52 here and then she puts this together and 1:11:54 she knows she can build this she's got 1:11:56 the skills to build it but yeah that's 1:11:58 kind of what she had in her head and 1:12:00 then she applies for that and then she 1:12:01 wins that business why is that a bad 1:12:05 thing is it relevant that it took 1:12:09 her not three days or three 1:12:14 weeks I don't think 1:12:16 so I just don't think 1:12:20 so but nothing is stopping me from 1:12:22 immediately copying her style yeah of 1:12:25 course not 1:12:27 I but I don't know what I don't know why 1:12:28 that's a bad thing like why is that a 1:12:30 bad thing you could go in and you could 1:12:32 copy that style and then do your own 1:12:34 thing and put that out in the world and 1:12:37 then if everyone copies that style then 1:12:40 she'll have to move on right she'll have 1:12:42 to move on to do other 1:12:45 things copying a style is not is 1:12:48 not copying a style used to be where 1:12:52 intellectual property lies I don't think 1:12:54 that's true moving forward 1:12:56 or in the future not moving forward it's 1:12:58 not there 1:13:01 yet I think I think I think it's going 1:13:04 to be more like people are going 1:13:06 to 1:13:09 create ideas that other people can 1:13:12 create 1:13:16 within and then and then people will 1:13:18 create art in that style and 1:13:22 and it would be relatively trivial to 1:13:26 build a mechanism that allows artists to 1:13:30 create so so think about mid Journey SRS 1:13:34 so if you're on X these days you see all 1:13:36 these SRS for all these different styles 1:13:38 and people are selling those SRS right 1:13:41 so they're selling you know you copy 1:13:43 this number and your artwork will like 1:13:45 look like this cool style and they're 1:13:47 selling those there there's nothing 1:13:49 proprietary about them they're easy to 1:13:52 copy you could in fact you could just go 1:13:54 screen shot some of the outputs put it 1:13:57 in mid Journey have it describe it and 1:13:59 go make your own doesn't 1:14:01 like but that that would be easier now 1:14:04 imagine a site that had the the 1:14:06 equivalent of SRS for images and then 1:14:11 musical styles and then um you know 1:14:14 character Frameworks and location 1:14:18 types imagine all that in this 1:14:21 system and I as an artist could Define 1:14:25 all of those Frameworks and then anyone 1:14:27 could come in and play with my toys and 1:14:29 make their own content and go do 1:14:31 anything they want with their 1:14:33 content but maybe I charge them every 1:14:36 time there's a 1:14:39 generation or maybe they could sell 1:14:41 things within my 1:14:43 space and I get a cut and they get a 1:14:46 cut why not like I I think I think we're 1:14:51 going to have to rethink [ __ ] 1:14:53 everything 1:14:55 everything that we think about value 1:14:57 everything that we think about 1:14:58 intellectual property everything we 1:15:01 think about 1:15:02 ownership because you're right P 1:15:12 trivial it's intelligence 1:15:16 communism well I listen it's 1:15:18 intelligence communism if you just give 1:15:20 it 1:15:21 away but Lion's gate Lion's gate just 1:15:25 did a deal with Runway right or not just 1:15:28 about eight months ago Lion's gate did a 1:15:31 deal with Runway well why are they doing 1:15:33 that they're G to take every piece of 1:15:35 content they've ever created and they're 1:15:37 going to train a model on 1:15:40 it and initially they're just going to 1:15:42 use it for their own grubby little 1:15:44 [ __ ] 1:15:45 hands 1:15:47 right they're going to make cutaway 1:15:49 scenes and movies and trailers and car 1:15:52 chase scenes based on their pre 1:15:55 intellectual 1:15:58 property and then at some point they're 1:16:01 going to put that thing in the 1:16:03 world and we will get to make 1:16:07 movies in a in a in a video generating 1:16:11 tool that's been trained on some of the 1:16:13 best movies out 1:16:15 there 1:16:17 licensed and we'll be able to make those 1:16:19 movies and we when we make those movies 1:16:21 they will get a cut and then the artist 1:16:23 will get a cut 1:16:25 and then we'll get to do stuff in that 1:16:27 style whatever the style is we 1:16:32 choose that feels like the future to me 1:16:35 create Frameworks and then just stop 1:16:38 trying to own the individual piece of 1:16:40 art start thinking about 1:16:43 systems that to me feels interesting 1:16:46 this was the Crux of my living novel 1:16:47 idea Kyle I want people to take my work 1:16:50 and make a derivative Side Story in the 1:16:52 same world setting yeah that's exactly 1:16:54 that's exactly what GPT came up with the 1:16:56 other night that it called uh emotional 1:16:59 architectures let me 1:17:05 see let's 1:17:08 see emotional 1:17:12 AR the 1:17:21 texure it made this image 1:17:25 which I don't know if you can see it let 1:17:26 me zoom in on it 1:17:32 right the living narrative 1:17:35 web so in the middle is your narrative 1:17:40 architecture Collective AR authorship 1:17:43 games films books emotional feedback 1:17:46 loop Tik Tock things 1:17:49 Biometrics there's linear narrative 1:17:52 within here there's particip 1:17:54 participatory narrative in here there's 1:17:56 emergent narrative within 1:18:00 here so it's like imagine a place where 1:18:03 you could go in and you could consume 1:18:05 media you could just go watch a film or 1:18:07 read a story or listen to music or enter 1:18:11 a 3D World or play a 1:18:13 game or you could flip into Creator 1:18:17 mode like imagine the world you know on 1:18:20 this side of the world you just play the 1:18:22 games you flip it upside down and now 1:18:24 you get to go in and you get to create 1:18:26 things within that world and the 1:18:28 constraints 1:18:29 are provided by the creator of the 1:18:35 space this is a Wes Anderson world so 1:18:37 it's going to feel like that this is a 1:18:39 lion's gate whatever [ __ ] movie you 1:18:41 want 1:18:43 to is a lion's gate 1:18:49 [Music] 1:18:52 movie yeah I I already that's what I was 1:18:54 just talking about 1:18:55 um 1:18:56 Brandon that's why I brought up this 1:19:03 image like this should be a 1:19:08 system maybe I'll start Vibe coding 1:19:17 this you know every time every time one 1:19:20 of the AI 1:19:23 platforms allows you to create create 1:19:25 templates it goes into this 1:19:27 system so we've got style references and 1:19:30 mid Journey we've got custom gpts and 1:19:34 chat GPT we've got right you've got all 1:19:36 these different things maybe at some 1:19:39 point sunno is going to do that sunno 1:19:41 might let me create my janky ass 1:19:47 song right 1:19:56 why is it not 1:19:58 playing why you not 1:20:06 playing yeah I know I'm not Shar my 1:20:08 audio I 1:20:09 know but I got my janky ass song here if 1:20:13 sunno would let me turn that into a 1:20:16 style and that would be the Kyle Shannon 1:20:19 janky porch guitar style 1:20:25 then that could become part of that 1:20:27 co-creation 1:20:30 world and then every time someone 1:20:32 generates within that I get a hundredth 1:20:35 of a 1:20:36 penny 1:20:38 right and then within the world people 1:20:41 can monetize their own 1:20:44 [ __ ] there's a whole [ __ ] thing here 1:20:47 but it's not like how we've ever thought 1:20:49 about intellectual 1:20:51 property it's not like how we've ever 1:20:53 thought about jobs 1:21:03 anyway we'll start with Shellington 1:21:06 exactly yeah exactly what would the 1:21:10 Shellington World be and and like again 1:21:14 the way that I think we've historically 1:21:16 thought about something like Shellington 1:21:18 is that you the the UR the the the 1:21:21 creator of Shellington would make 1:21:23 Shellington 1:21:25 and then you would be subject to the 1:21:28 Shellington they 1:21:30 made but what if rather than that they 1:21:33 just set the rules for here's here's how 1:21:36 Shellington is going to look here's how 1:21:38 it's going to 1:21:40 sound here's what stories are going to 1:21:42 be like here's what characters are going 1:21:43 to be 1:21:45 like and then you can just go into 1:21:47 Shellington and you can Long as You 1:21:50 Follow whatever the rules are that are 1:21:52 in 1:21:53 there make a building or make 1:21:57 a I don't 1:22:00 know a little poetry corner where your 1:22:04 little character says poetry but it all 1:22:07 the Poetry has a Shellington about it 1:22:10 because that's designed into the 1:22:13 world what's that start to look like I 1:22:16 don't 1:22:17 know I don't [ __ ] know anyway all 1:22:21 right that was it 1:22:25 I know I annoyed the [ __ ] out of some 1:22:27 people tonight that were expecting a 1:22:29 formal 1:22:33 lesson I don't understand the curriculum 1:22:36 here this this site is very confusing 1:22:39 this AI learning lab is anyone actually 1:22:41 learning anything here who is this guy 1:22:45 does he have any qualifications has 1:22:47 anyone checked that because I'm pretty 1:22:48 sure that he 1:22:49 doesn't that I'll tell you what I 1:22:52 promise you this that was not an 1:22:54 accredit ited course there were no 1:22:56 accreditations happening and who are the 1:23:00 Irregulars what what kind of what kind 1:23:04 of subversive group is that the 1:23:06 Irregulars that does that does not sound 1:23:08 like a university I want to be a part 1:23:11 [Applause] 1:23:15 of Brian Whitney I want a refund you 1:23:19 will get 1:23:21 one podcast life hacks tomorrow okay 1:23:25 go to the AI 1:23:27 Salon the salon. join our community or 1:23:31 go to the AIS salon. mn. the mighty 1:23:34 networks click on events tomorrow you 1:23:37 have two things you've got Sabrina 1:23:40 romanof doing a Learn out Loud session 1:23:42 on blot and then you have the life hacks 1:23:45 Club at two hours after 1:23:48 that sharing cool things you can do with 1:23:51 AI just cool stupid [ __ ] that'll make 1:23:54 your life better 1:23:58 all right so go do that I'm getting 1:24:01 tired and it's free yes the AI turning 1:24:05 [Laughter] 1:24:07 Fab they say those things and come back 1:24:09 the next day exactly I know all the 1:24:12 trolls in here are you know they either 1:24:14 just Huff on out of here because they 1:24:16 realize I don't give a 1:24:20 [ __ ] oh well you got a hair growing out 1:24:22 of your nose yeah I do I'm [ __ ] old 1:24:24 old you start sprouting hairs look at 1:24:27 these 1:24:29 eyebrows I'm like I'm I'm like three 1:24:31 days away from being a tenur professor 1:24:34 at some old Ivy League 1:24:38 school at least eyebrow 1:24:44 wise do you have to register I don't 1:24:47 think so Brian I think you can just go 1:24:48 see when they are and get the 1:24:50 information from them it would be nice 1:24:51 for the people organizing them if you at 1:24:53 least rsvped 1:24:55 um but I don't think you have to I don't 1:24:56 think you have 1:24:58 to I don't think 1:25:02 so we learned that curation is key 1:25:04 curation yeah 1:25:06 listen curation is 1:25:09 important I think it's the most 1:25:13 important think 1:25:15 critically think about your audience 1:25:18 think about how you want to affect your 1:25:20 audience an audience could be business 1:25:23 audience it could be entertainment 1:25:25 audience it's not just 1:25:28 entertainment think about who you want 1:25:30 to impact with your 1:25:33 work and then use whatever the [ __ ] tool 1:25:35 you want it doesn't matter that it's AI 1:25:39 use any tool that will let you get the 1:25:41 job done and then put it in the world 1:25:45 with the intent of having that 1:25:48 impact that's 1:25:51 it that's all we do as humans 1:25:55 it's really straightforward huh I would 1:25:58 like to help make it easier for people 1:26:00 to tell their stories authentically 13 1:26:03 laters 13 years later I've got Story 1:26:07 vine with patented technology and you 1:26:09 know an appreciative customer 1:26:13 base that was just me intending to have 1:26:16 an impact in the 1:26:17 world that's all we do all we do as 1:26:20 humans is think about what we want to do 1:26:22 and then we do our [ __ ] best to put 1:26:25 something out there that has some sort 1:26:27 of 1:26:30 impact that's it and sometimes we do 1:26:33 that for money and sometimes we 1:26:35 don't sometimes we just go do the day 1:26:38 job and we do the minimum amount 1:26:40 required so we can have enough money to 1:26:42 do the real thing on the 1:26:47 weekend but that's what we're 1:26:50 doing why does it 1:26:52 matter what tool you use to do do that 1:26:55 why why why because it doesn't look like 1:26:58 we anything we've ever seen before it 1:27:00 scares me yeah okay that I understand 1:27:03 just say 1:27:06 that don't invalidate good 1:27:09 work that smart people are doing just 1:27:12 because of the tool they used you look 1:27:15 like a [ __ ] 1:27:18 Lite and I know I'm yelling at all of 1:27:20 you who are actually here and not those 1:27:22 people 1:27:26 but these are some arguments like when 1:27:28 when people get up in your face you 1:27:29 shouldn't use AI 1:27:31 [Applause] 1:27:32 yeah you tell me 1:27:35 why should you not use a spell checker 1:27:38 you illiterate 1:27:40 [Laughter] 1:27:43 idiot should you not use grammarly to 1:27:46 fix that [ __ ] sentence you can't get 1:27:49 out of your [ __ ] mouth 1:27:56 [Laughter] 1:27:58 testy 1:27:59 Tuesday I'm just I'm just tired of you 1:28:03 know what it is it's like there's all 1:28:04 this vitriol from 1:28:08 people who like not only have not 1:28:12 thought about this haven't even [ __ ] 1:28:14 tried 1:28:15 it they're just hearing tropes and 1:28:18 [ __ ] that other people said I'm 1:28:20 angry about this because they told me I 1:28:23 should be 1:28:25 okay have you used it no I would never 1:28:28 use 1:28:29 that 1:28:33 okay good luck with 1:28:39 that all right back to 1:28:42 empathy I got recognized for my empathy 1:28:45 tonight in the salon and then proceeded 1:28:48 to come here and [ __ ] all over it 1:28:56 oh cancel GPS in Siri 2 Siri [ __ ] 1:29:01 Siri sir's gota go um any version of 1:29:05 intelligence makes the makes the simple 1:29:08 humans panic I know I 1:29:11 know I 1:29:15 know I mean but here's the good news the 1:29:18 good news 1:29:20 is what are they going to do about it 1:29:24 hey should be illegal oh 1:29:27 okay and then meanwhile you know we're 1:29:30 off composing Symphonies and and [ __ ] 1:29:33 launching apps on the App Store in four 1:29:39 hours how do you do all that well he's 1:29:42 using that thing that you [ __ ] [ __ ] 1:29:44 all over for two years oh well I still 1:29:47 don't like it but I use chat GPT now a 1:29:50 little bit at work why because we have 1:29:53 to oh 1:29:55 imagine where you'd be if you'd started 1:29:57 this two years ago yeah thick skull numb 1:30:03 knuckle I like that connection to other 1:30:06 Tech tools you really you can't really 1:30:09 find your way there if you don't use a 1:30:11 paper map yeah Google did all the 1:30:13 navigating and you didn't do anything 1:30:14 but follow the instructions 1:30:16 exactly that you know what archetype 1:30:19 that is exactly the 1:30:22 right the argument right now against AI 1:30:27 is if you didn't have to unfold a map 1:30:31 and Mark it with a highlighter and 1:30:33 follow it as you were 1:30:35 driving and understand the relationship 1:30:39 between the paper map and the 1:30:41 road if you're not if that's not how 1:30:43 you're navigating wait you're just 1:30:46 telling me you have a phone and on the 1:30:48 phone is a map that automatically knows 1:30:50 where you are that's not real navigation 1:30:55 that's completely got zero 1:30:57 value I I'm sorry did I get here well 1:31:01 yeah but that but that's not the point 1:31:03 the point is you're using satellite it's 1:31:06 cheating it's it's it's not as valuable 1:31:09 my navigation is 1:31:11 better yeah but your navigation requires 1:31:14 you have a trunk full of maps right 1:31:16 because I because I'm a 1:31:18 navigator well what if we you just 1:31:21 didn't have paper everywhere 1:31:25 well that that then but I'm never going 1:31:28 to do I love my paper maps that's 1:31:31 exactly what it 1:31:34 is yeah yeah paper map equals distracted 1:31:38 driving sir were you navigating while 1:31:41 you were driving someone's got a map in 1:31:43 front of their face you think phones are 1:31:46 [Laughter] 1:31:51 bad oh good lord all right I'm getting 1:31:53 out of here um I will see you tomorrow 1:31:55 night tomorrow night's Wednesday go 1:31:57 support the the salon events tomorrow 1:32:00 and uh I will see you 1:32:02 tomorrow I gotta do something about this 1:32:04 hair soon what did chat GPT say about 1:32:08 me he he looked he looked like he wants 1:32:11 took care of himself or something like 1:32:14 that 1:32:18 exactly peace have a good night
