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.

8:26 wasn't a week ago
8:33 [Music]
8:42 there's a
8:46 cliffhanger something was is clear to me
8:48 tonight that wasn't a week ago and then
8:50 I just don't say anything
8:55 [Music]
9:10 what does this mean open AI
9:14 closes oh classes oh we'll replace the
9:18 AI learning lab starting
9:19 [Laughter]
9:23 tomorrow this is the last AI learning
9:25 lab this is it we're done no more
9:35 [Music]
9:57 um if you haven't seen
10:01 here's what I'm referring
10:08 to if you go
10:11 to
10:13 academy.

10:20 aai Academy we don't need no stinking
10:23 learning Labs you with your fancy Tik
10:26 Tock
10:28 channels talking about our open AI who
10:31 do you think you are we'll start our own
10:34 damn University and that comes straight
10:36 from the Sam
10:40 Alman 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 recommitted to Alman a week or so ago

14:05 unbelievable way to go
14:08 Apple hey could you make your operating
14:11 system suck more oh yeah hang on let me
14:13 see if we can uh get iCloud to not
14:17 [Music]
14:21 update AI tutorials tools and art hey
14:24 Kyle what are you 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

41:38 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

48:40 uh we'll
48:43 do acoustic
48:50 rock about
48:52 how AI
48:55 is taking all the
48:58 jobs
49:01 and
49:03 only the AI
49:06 curious will
49:12 Thrive why is he wearing a pink
49:15 bow what is this some sort
49:18 of some sort of theatrical
49:24 performance all
49:25 right I've never done this before I
49:28 certainly haven't done it
49:30 live as evidenced by the fact that I
49:32 couldn't find the
49:36 interface hey in my defense they keep
49:38 changing the interfaces on this that's
49:40 what she said
49:42 [Music]
50:07 all right we have
50:11 [Music]
50:18 songs eyes on the pr when the chips are

50:32 knees kissing the ring bury me with ease
50:38 well I'll be gone in a matter of time
50:42 don't care how I live don't care how I
50:46 die
50:48 curiosity
50:51 rains I will be forgotten in a matter of
50:55 days don't care

51:36 song about
51:39 how
51:41 AI about
51:45 how all the

52:56 real
53:02 [Music]
53:09 nice all right let's do an extend we'll
53:11 do an
53:12 extend we'll

53:34 okay so while this is making that song
53:36 tomorrow afternoon is it tomorrow
53:39 afternoon I think it's tomorrow
53:41 afternoon
53:42 um
53:44 uh Sabrina romanof um is doing a Learn
53:50 out Loud on the AI salon so if you could
53:52 pop up the AI Salon URL there Brandon
54:00 boom go to the
54:02 salon. and click on join our community
54:05 if if you haven't if you haven't joined
54:07 um go there and do that um you should
54:10 here here's the deal the the thing I was
54:12 talking about earlier if you've been
54:13 here for a bit um the thing about being
54:16 able to reinvent yourself one of the
54:19 fastest ways to be able to do that it's
54:20 be in community with people that are
54:22 curious about this [ __ ] that's what the
54:23 salon is go to the events Tab and
54:26 tomorrow afternoon Sabrina Romanov who
54:28 created blot is going to be doing a
54:30 tutorial on it um so 5:00 P PM eastern
54:34 time so 3pm Mountain all right G all
54:38 right let's go listen to this Americana
54:39 now this is now the previous one it took
54:42 what I played and it did a cover of it
54:45 which means it's going to reinterpret it
54:47 this one is an extension of it so I
54:49 assume this is going to start out with
54:51 um with the guitar I played or some
54:53 version of it the factory flows Qui it
54:58 now the Hammer's gone but who knows
55:03 how the fields are dust the wells ran
55:07 dry pick the the shittiest part of my
55:10 playing the factory floor is quiet
55:14 now the Hammer's gone but who knows
55:18 how the fields are D the wells ran dry
55:23 where steel once sang No echoes
55:27 [Music]
55:29 fly Rus and circuits fill the
55:34 airams scarce wait America a s about how
55:38 all the all the let's see all the
55:43 um knowledge
55:47 workers knowledge
55:50 workers jobs 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

1:23:58 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
