alright forget chad gp that's old news you talk about chad g my mom knows chad gp today we're playing a little game called blow my mind with ai and me and sam we set each other in a little challenge i said i'm gonna bring some ai tools that i think are pretty cool you do the same let's have a little show and tell let's get smarter together about cool things you can do with ai i feel like i could rule world i know i could be what i want to put at all in it like a days off on a roll less travel so the premise for the episode is what are the ai tools that everybody should know about that feels like you're on the you're on the bleeding edge or something or you're on to something that's gonna be big in the future and that's that's what i wanna see today okay so you've seen okay everybody talks about agents oh agents agents love agents agents are all the rage does anybody use an agent what is what are the using agents for this is kind of i gotta into a rage about agents and i was like let me get see if i can get one useful agent working and i tried a bunch of different tools but i wanna show you a fun one that this guy garrett made so garrett is the founder of pipe dream which is a very cool companies isn't awesome you might know him actually they're basically these guys are building like underground delivery tunnels is this company working yeah there well i mean it's a really hard company but like they built this thing like check this out in in austin have this first thing called goods which is like an autonomous it's kinda like door dash or or insta cart but it's like the fastest grocery pick up in the world so you order it and in two minutes like there's a crate of things that have been picked that gets formed to you and you go pick it up from your local like goods locker type of thing that's insane okay so check this out so he i guess as a side project he built this thing called do anything and i wanna give it a shout because every you know a lot of people know about claude and and these other things and i thought this was a pretty cool site so if you go to do anything dot com you'll see it but i'm gonna show you what this can do so check this out i i go to this thing it says do anything and basically that promises just tell me what to do i'll go do it it's a to do list that does itself so i said analyze my youtube channel performance like you're a world class content strategist the channel's called my first million on youtube it's a podcast i couldn't even made bother to give it the link was like don't know see if you figure this out so thinks about it and then it's like at first asked me i was like hey can you log in with youtube and i was like no i'm not gonna do that right now i don't know the password i'm gonna say no to that's it's tell me what you could do and so it says okay got it and so it it it does the reflection now here's what it so here it gives you the state of the union report this is now like a couple minutes later so it says say the union you've built a powerhouse with eight hundred sixty nine thousand subscribers and three hundred million total views that's a massive footprint in the business niche however a world class strategist just looks past the vanity metrics to see the real story and then it's like your average videos get twenty to forty five thousand views for a channel with nearly nine hundred thousand subscribers that's a big lag where your core audience only three percent to five percent are clicking on new uploads immediately and then i looked at what are winner episodes what was why that title was good what's working what's not strategic recommendation that's a great title wait scroll up it says how to make a million dollar so fast your accountant gets worried gets nervous yeah exactly and i'm like okay that's already better than like you know most of the titles we come up with when we try and it did it right away and then it basically says okay here's what i think you should be doing right double down on contra wisdom so instead of just guest x tells a story it's why everything you know about x topic is wrong get your thumbnails right whenever get your shorts to lead to longs and then i was like i can help more and so then then i said okay i said create a one month content plan designed to ten x our monthly views while staying on brown on brand and in our niche of business junkie money wisdom and cool business trends let's just make a comment here you did this nineteen minutes before we were supposed to record yeah yes i did and look what it did okay so then it starts doing it and it's like alright here's a one month aisle outlier content plan and it started to say look we're gonna go all in on video essays because they're gonna have higher higher conversion and a higher av we're gonna make our thumbnails feel like a business documentary rather than like two guys talking on a podcast like a zoom call and for talk topic selection we're looking gonna look for things that are a big promise with with low friction you know un unstructured businesses money traps to avoid you know a one person million dollar portfolio how to do it and then it gave me this sheet that was like here's your plan so it's like it it starts giving me actual videos how to build a one person million dollar portfolio in twenty twenty six and then it's like brutal truth series so why your nine to five is actually your biggest financial risk the seven money traps that are keeping you poor future hype the next nvidia the death of sas what what's gonna replace saas inside the brain of a billionaire or how x built a billion dollar hundred billion dollar empire seventeen lessons from a thousand episodes in my first million and it basically starts to give you those then it's like would you like me to script these out which one of these do you like would you like me to come up with thumbnail ideas and you just keep saying yeah yeah go ahead keep going yeah have at it knock yourself out if you just do that like isn't that i mean i just feel like the idea of having background workers that are gonna be constantly working for you and and by the way this is getting better and better so have you seen chat gp pulse feature yeah i pay for it's it's expensive but it's pretty great but it's cool right it knows what you're already trying to do and it's like cool every day i'll just proactively search for stuff and i'll write stuff to you about the things you care about like you don't have to prompt me i'll just come up with prompts and i'll just serve it to you and i just think like this is getting more and more that way where it's like automatically triggered by reading what's going on so i'm downloading these other tools that basically will like read all my slack messages and then based off of what's being said it'll just go try to do the work so for con is is working on a tool like this called nebula it's an app that you basically go in you connect your slack your gmail whatever you wanna connect your google calendar and it just knows it's like cool you give me your calendar i know what meetings are coming up i'll just create prep docs for you for every meeting that you have coming up i have i haven't gotten this to work for me good enough yet because it's like like he's you know he's for counsel of my good friends and this is like a early early early prototypes of you know fair warning this is not like the most you know functional thing yet but like i'm playing with it because this one does it this one has a even more interesting premise which is basically you don't need to ask me what to do i should be able to figure out what to do based on what's going on and so you know in their case it's like cool if a bunch of people on your team uploaded new code to github i will automatically go read it summarize the changes and just tell you about it tomorrow morning you don't need to tell me go look at github i know i'm connected to github if something changed i'm gonna tell you about it so is this for is is this worth trying now yeah so for me it's not that useful because i don't have a huge team on my like core team so like you know we don't have a daily stand up we don't push code to github like you know it's just like three of us and we mostly just talk to each other like i already saw the messages but if you have you know a ten person twenty person thirty person team this can be extremely useful right and you just set up different different workflows of saying like hey keep checking my dashboards and giving me summaries reason and tell me when anything pops off right you could just tell it to do stuff like that in a chat interface and it figures out how to do it that's the idea behind something like that with everything is i mean the this can do your job for you like i'm already using chad be like sometimes if i get in an argument with one of my employees or like if i'm like what they did anger me i but i need to be productive about it and reply in a way that solves the problem i'll upload the email i'd be like you know my instinct is to like write this angry thing but like obviously i i know that's not right can you like help me like write this email in a way that gets me what i want right and so it's already like doing a lot of the talking anyway hey quick break because if you're liking this episode about ai tools i have something else you might be into a while back our friend greg came on the pod and did they show in intel of his own he walked through five tools that you can use to build a business that doesn't require a bunch of employees or a lot of capital and they're not the obvious ai tools that everyone's talking about they're more of the underrated under the radar tools that you know the sort of power nerds like us and greg try to find and try so if you're looking for a list of ai tools that you can check out and kick around for your business you can get it right now it's in the description below totally free hope you enjoy that and now back to this episode are you using whisper flow oh my god dude i don't i barely i barely type anymore do you use it on your cell phone it's so good on the phone so whisper flow is pretty amazing it's an app that basically does just amazing text to speech so so that's especially a the wrong way of saying is that's kind of the nerdy way what what's the real way saying typing is a pretty slow thing to do it actually requires a lot of energy and you don't you don't really realize it tell you're able to just like stop doing it so what whisper flow is this is on your phone so like if i go to our imessage there's a thing that's just says start flow so all i do is i just click this button and so any app that i'm in right this is not like just in chat gp or just in gemini i could do this in slack i can do this on facebook i can this on instagram i can write a caption i can write an email can do any i can do this anywhere i just hit start flow that'd be like and then it just now it's listening so i say hey saying for today's episode do you wanna do the ai episode next line i'm thinking that we could each show two or three different cool apps i'm not sure if you've already prepped it but i have two for sure that i can do let me know what you're thinking boom and now it's got that captured perfectly and what's cool about this is they because this is all they've specialize in they start to notice like oh i like to break up lines like i i kind of i go back and i i removed periods i think they look too formal in text message i think it makes you come across like an asshole i will separate lines out with by pushing i don't like big blocks of paragraph text so it learns as i do that once twice then the next time it's just gonna do it autumn it's gonna format it automatically to look more like me my add bullet points so i'll be like hey i've been thinking about i think i've been thinking about these three things the first thing is this the second thing is this other thing and the third thing was this thing also i was thinking actually i didn't mean to say that also i scratch that yeah yeah and so it does more much to random yeah when i said actually i didn't mean that i met the fourth thing like it actually adds a fourth and it doesn't say when i said previously and so this can be pretty powerful like i will go for a walk i'll go walk my dog popping air pod in and i can just come up with whether it's an email or a blog post or something i'm trying to write a book chapter whatever it is and i'll just ramble i'm just talking for like thirty minutes i'm like what i could say is that you know creativity is the new productivity that the last fifty years a bit about who can be most productive but now with ai everybody's instantly productive it's actually about who's got the best ideas so creativity is the new productivity i think that's a good point so i'll just talk like that rambling and at the end i'll just give that to you know chat or a different service and i'll be like hey can you remove the ramble parts and like structure this and organize this well for me make this into an actual book chapter and it'll like give me something that's eighty five ninety percent there and i didn't have to even have my phone out didn't have to look down at my screen i'm out in nature just walking it around like it's a very different way of working that you know my dad if he saw it he'd be like what do you this is not work what are you talking what are you doing this doesn't even i don't even understand what's happening right now i think that's the difference between the winners and the losers basically the people are gonna use it and they're gonna ten or hundred x their output and the losers are gonna be this is too new this is too fast we should keep it old school yeah exactly i wrote this blog post six months ago or a year ago or something like this and i basically called it the k shape economy which is like people are saying oh is gonna take your job and of course it will if you don't use it it's like get computers you know take jobs soon i basically said like the k shaped economy is that it's not that your whole job goes away but a job is basically a bundle of tasks okay so like even if you work at a grocery store your job is a bundle of tasks maybe you locking shelves maybe you're at the checkout thing maybe you're bag maybe you're pushing cards whatever you're doing right it's a bundle of tasks and so first you have to think about what are the what is the bundle of tasks that is in my job and then you have to say how many of those can i get ai to do instead of me or to make me way better at doing than i'm currently doing it and so i said like basically like eighty percent of those tasks will basically be replaced by ai and then twenty percent of those tasks will become enhanced by ai so things that you'll be able to do much better and so you know if you're if you just take any of the things that we we talked about just now right like let's take the youtube content strategist right that's a job well now if i can just say hey you can you should set up a little machine that is constantly scanning youtube to find what other adjacent channels are doing what's working what our outlier videos breaking those down into like and then and then have a second thing that analyzes those and says okay that was an outlier why do i think that that worked so well then it takes that in a references it against the my first million like brand corpus and says what should you guys be doing that like how could you take this outlier video and make it your own and like using that to then pitch us you know kind of like as crazy here's what i think you guys should be doing now all of a sudden you're ten times better at your job even better would be like so so google keeps releasing these like really powerful things but they suck at marketing them and so if you just kind of poke around what google's got they actually kinda have better tools for a lot of things so there's the thing called notebook l one if you just go to like the home homepage of it i'll just go to the homepage real quick it's like you just create a notebook so if you say alright i want you to make something for me or teach me something it's like a great way to learn about anything so what i did was you can drop in any podcast so door cash does great ai podcast so door cash has a great podcast carp came on carp was the former head of ai at tesla and it's like one of the self driving guru and probably the best one of the best thinkers about ai in the world so it's an hour and a half i can either listen to it or i can first just get a quick summary of it so i just drop in the link to it and here's what it made so i dropped in the link and then i said turn this into a slide deck and it created this so it creates this thing called summon ghosts decade of ai agents and it created this this slide deck this entire presentation that just was auto generated from me giving it one youtube link to the podcast so it says it's not the year of it's a decade of agents here's a quote from him he says i have fifteen years of experience with people making predictions if i just averaged out it feels like a decade for me and then he's like talking about like animals away so all so did those can you go back how many exactly do so all of these images are from it made it it made it he didn't show anything it just looks at the transcript and it turns it into a powerpoint presentation right so this is amazing my god this is what's this call from google no google yellow i know but i used that what's this feature call this is no just i just dropped in and as click see at the right it's click slide deck so all i did was i just gave it the link right i gave it this youtube link see this youtube video right here i just drop in the link i didn't watch the video and then i said make me a slide deck about it it took like ten minutes and then it i made it like okay that's cool then you think about what's what comes next so i saw this guy they was all those graphics legible like did it all make sense because they're they're not the they're okay they're all legible as and they're not just gibberish but you know like this wouldn't be like i'm sure there's some things in here that a little bit off or a little bit dumb but some like we're really overly complicated like i don't know what this is like this this chart looks like kinda crazy so i'm not sure how useful this is but like i saw somebody do with ray dahlia ray dahlia gave a talk somewhere and he turned it into and i was like oh wow this is so much better than going and listening to ray dahlia talk for an hour like i i can get this and now if now it might be now i might actually be interested in listening to the full talk but this gave me the gist of it okay so then check this out so meant staying on top of all this stuff is really hard so now this guy built a tool that basically makes presentations look sick so the thing i gave you before was cool because it made the presentation but it looked kind of like i don't know some of the grand a little whatever so check so i got this guy's thing so he's like do all of my presentation index like this i watch this animation so he's he get he gave it he he gave it his slides and he was like gave it like an initial slide and then the outline of what you wanted to talk about watch what it makes what's it's gonna make exactly in the style so when you just roll but check out what happens if i start playing my presentation i get not only perfect slides i also get what happened it just gave it this and then it it transitioned perfectly into the next slide so all the next slide look like this static right the first slide looked like this static ai made it so that it will automatically make it look like you animated one into the other but they weren't related at all that i wanted it to be but in that second what was his called was his call that i've made you know what i mean like how sick is this these are just independent slides remember how pre broke everyone's mind because it would like wu over from like one slides to the next this was like pre but the ai thing for me i was like oh that's amazing i want i want like a a shot look like this gl slides dot pages yeah so this guy fabian posted this and his app is called gl gl dot app i haven't actually tried to use it to make one of these but i thought that the demo was unbelievable it's kind of like you know in any animation you have a start point and an end point and then usually you have to show you have to create every step in between like the the thirty steps in between the key the key key frames keyframes right the where it starts and where it's supposed to end and that with ai you just show it the start in the end and it just automatically will animate it to make it look like a transformed into b how cool was that and by the way he didn't even make that he just used this off the shelf thing called cling that does like video transitions and he's like what if i just plug video transitions into a slide deck will that work and then boom it worked today's episode is brought to you by hubspot did you know that most businesses only use twenty percent of their data that's like reading a book but then tearing out four fifth of the pages point is you miss a lot and unless you're using hubspot the customer platform that gives you to the data you need to grow your business the insights that are trapped in emails call logs transcripts all that unstructured data makes all the difference because when you know more you grow more and so if you wanna read the whole book instead of just reading part of it visit hubspot dot com okay so here i'm showing off stuff that i made with ai so i've been i was using claude code all week or claude code i don't even know the difference to be honest i think cloud code is one thing in c is an easier way to use claude code is that right yeah code code is like you're gonna create a program c is it's like a junior worker that you could be like hey can you analyze this data hey can you create this plan hey can you make a presentation out of this you hand off work to to and coworker okay so i made a thing so look here's the problem i read a ton of business biographies you want to read a ton of business biographies i don't know if you actually do but you say you want someone of the comments on youtube said sean's this year is to finish a book which was just pretty fun it's kind good helpful one so i like reading my business biographies because it's a great way to learn about business but also makes me feel better about my life because you like you see like the problems that other entrepreneurs had so you know it makes me you not feel alone but when you read four or five hundred page biography a you lose track of the timeline b it's hard to know exactly what applies to you and c if you read a biography let's say it's from a buyer from the nineteen thirties so nineteen forty they'll talk about dollar signs or dollar numbers and it's hard to take that and immediately apply it to modern terms yeah they'll be like oh john rockefeller bought this thing for fifty thousand dollars i'm like well that's not a lot of money it's like oh well that was actually like eight million dollars okay so now i have the context so i built an app where here's what it does i can download and then upload one to five business biographies all in the same person because the way that i tend to read is let's say i wanna learn about ted turner i'll go and read literally three or four biographies on him to get like different context and so i made this for my pre work pre reading because i'm kinda weird i like to like say i'm gonna learn all about tit turner i'm gonna go read these three or four or five business biographies so i made a website where i can upload three or four or five of them either pdf ep pub mob or text versions so just just slow that down so do you go to amazon you buy the kindle thing or you're going somewhere else to get the pdf or the ep pub or whatever i do i do read the hard covers but in order to make this work the easiest part is to do some boot leg okay so you do need to download them illegally but i don't feel bad because i'm paying for the book anyway so anyway i upload it to a website and i've been able to basically make a business wikipedia so let me explain what i mean so here's what the site looks like so it's called bio notion and because the output is going to be a notion page so here's an example i had this book about ted turner i uploaded it in the output which i'll show you a second it takes like five minutes so i'm gonna show you the final output is basically this so check this out so my output is a ted turner business empire timeline and financial history and so the first part is it tells me three to five bullet points that i could read from his journey now here's my favorite part it gives me a financial summary so wikipedia is great but it doesn't dive deep on the numbers so it makes it challenging to actually like understand how i know enough is easy enough yeah i wanna know about numbers and so i create a financial summary of his whole entire life whereas you could see i adjusted the money to two thousand twenty five era and it will go through like each major age twenty four he's worth about ten million dollars and today today's money about he had a million dollar company back then by the time he's thirty one he's now worth maybe sixteen what is sixteen million dollar net worth yeah and then he crosses a hundred when he's thirty seven years old very yeah yes and then what it does is it goes through each section just like wikipedia does on someone's the milestones of someone's life but i have it oh saying i gonna ask on that table so it's taking raw info from the book because the book is not telling you at age thirty one he was worth an estimated this many dollars and dollars it's it's kind of like it takes the raw and then it basically does ai analysis to try to figure out like okay if it said his company was worth x and he probably owned let's call it seventy five percent at this point yeah and then he would be worth this much money is that what it's doing did you tell it to do that i told it to do that for example ted turner his father owned a billboard company his father died when ted was only twenty two or twenty four years old and he ted inherited the business but in order to inherit it he actually had to raise money debt in order to buy back a bunch of the assets because long story his dad was mentally ill and sold a bunch of parts of the company and bad deals he had a outrageous money ted to buy back the business so that's why it says he had a million dollar company and it was just adjusted to ten million dollars and then as ted story grows he goes from billboard company to buying radio stations to buying tv stations to ultimately buying the brave and then starting cnn in his forties and so this kinda of paints the picture of his major transactions very cool okay love it already i learned something which is like the thing he's known for let's call cnn you know didn't start till lose forty i'm not even forty yet you know it's like your your best work could be ahead of you just one big takeaway right away it's crazy right and just like wikipedia because i love wikipedia i read wikipedia like crazy i love how they break it into a bio and they just give you like the stuff you need to know so for example ed turner his father committed suicide so ted at the age twenty four and inherited to the billboard business was which was saddle by debt with this father's recent purchase of all these other companies and then notice i convert it to two thousand twenty five money then what i did was i had to add a section where it could apply it to me so i actually uploaded it to claude a ton of information about me and my business and i actually deleted it because i i didn't wanna show it on here but where it says founders playbook it's a section where it can apply that portion of his life to my life so i can learn from certain tips because when you read a biography sometimes you skip over the interesting learning because if it's a biography it's often just facts not what that he did was really rare and you gotta pay attention to this particular point and so i did that which eat with each section of his life and then what i tried to do like look founders playbook what you can learn so when he created cnn though could be in in a in a category create a new one survived the ridicule so ted was made fun of a whole bunch when he launched cnn it was not easy for him here's what people mocked him for the chicken noodle networks cnn yeah they made fun of them all the time i feel like trump could use that now as a as a great dis it's a pretty good one and then what i tried to do and this was actually quite challenging was at the end i tried to get a whole bunch of photos that were relevant to the era so i could like make like this like visual timeline yeah digital timeline work i could look at them and this is actually a lot more challenging to figure how to do but it's been really effective i've done this now with like three or four different people who i love learning and reading about and it's made it so much easier because i used to do this in chat gp but i had to like prompt it in a certain way and it was always really challenging so that's project number one and this is now like publish you can you can have this on you could create your own like little sam online right where you're studying great business you the business biographies basically it's pretty awesome man because i think when people read i don't know about you when i read a book i always read the wikipedia of the person or the summary of the book which definitely gives it away like the story but it makes it so much easier to know what to look forward to and if i know like that he's been divorced a bunch of times i start reading about its first marriage and like i know this is gonna end and i could see the cracks already i could see why it's yeah totally it's it's very helpful to have the like blueprint of what the the the overall scaffolding of the story is so then when you're reading you're putting things in in buckets basically and you know what what else is to come versus you go in blind and then you're sort of at the then it's sort of just like did they hook me right away or you might bounce before you get to any of the good stuff right and what i love doing about dave david center has a podcast called founders and he's really good where he's like check this out check this part of the biography it talks about hiring and here's what he says and then david will say you know i've read all these biographies i've noticed that's a trend amongst a lot of the people as they say things like that and that's challenging to to those insights are actually hard and so put those insights into this this project that's great okay i really like that you know you could actually even make this even more powerful so right now you're doing the step where you're saying i wanna do ted turner and i gotta go find the biographies i gotta go get the ep pub and then i gotta go download it and then do this like you can actually just have an agent do that you could tell an agent hey every week every monday i want you to deliver this to me so think through who you think i might like find the right biographies go get the pdfs for them put them into this tool deliver this and then i want you to send me an email or turn it into a podcast read it out into a podcast that i will i'm subscribing to my own personal podcast i did not know how to do that but that's a great idea and then the really cool part i didn't wanna show this here but like you know my chat which i use is like my business coach has all this context on my strengths and weaknesses and the shit i complain about and i the section where says founders playbook it's like crazy tailored towards what i'm experiencing on a day to day basis and that was really magical one thing i i like about why about biographies or about reading in general is i have this theory that like everybody today is like anxious and upset about things that like our ancestors would just laugh at you know like none of us grown up like you know in a war torn you know state or you know the great depression or anything like that it's like you haven't faced real adversity so you you mag small problems and make them bigger and so my my little quote on this is we don't need therapy we need history and if you actually were a student history you would need less therapy and so i think it's cool what you're doing because in a way it's actually founder therapy for you there's this crazy story where ted is in his forties and at this point he's worth hundreds of millions of dollars because of a a bunch of stuff that he's done and he starts cnn in and he invest almost all of his money into it and no one would watch it and so he does just ridiculous stuff for example late night they allow one of their news caster to be a dog and they interview the dog and another time it's actually ted being interviewed but he puts it's a bag over his head so you don't know who he is and it's he's like plays this like secret character and what's interesting is like guys like you or me or some people who have some amount of success you think i can't do that low or i can't like you know do this stuff and then i read this stuff i'm like look what this guy did who's like this like supposed to be already the successful permanent person like there was another time where he had to get stitches on his forehead because when he first bought the brave no one would go and he did this seventh that stretch game where it was who could push the ball to first base the fastest with their nose and he was like screw it i'll do it they drunk uncle and and i just think if if he's willing to literally get on his hands and knees like there's nothing beneath me yeah that's great and by the way you could even feed something like that back into your system so you could say the things that i remembered that i took away was this for this reason remember this about me i like these types of anecdotes for these types of reasons so surface those in the future right like create a create a read me file of the things that sam really resonates with and always check against that the next time you do another biography right so the system gets smarter every time i have to figure out how to set it up with so it can email me but i did all this one called i guess coworker and it took forty five minutes it's pretty awesome alright let me let me show you something okay so i have two two big themes that i think are the themes of the year for ai one of them is mass personalization so everything personal for you so what do i mean by this you know in the last ten fifteen years i would say that if you just teleport from fifteen years ago to today so you're like twenty ten maybe even a little early maybe twenty years ago twenty years ago to today so you're in two thousand six snap my fingers you're now in twenty twenty six what are the things that stand out to you and i think one thing that would definitely stand out is wow not only is everybody on their phone which is already like tiny computer but like what are they looking at on their phone and i i would say one of the biggest inventions was the news feed and if you think twenty years ago you know we had all content was kind of like needed to have mass appeal so you'd have the newspaper that gets printed and gets delivered to everybody so it's kinda gotta be a little something for everybody and now with the tiktok algorithm and the instagram algorithm and the facebook algorithm and and all that it's not a little something for everybody it's a hell of a lot just for you yeah like i still remember coming home from school and like we would all watch t do you remember t totally yeah like and and you know if you look at some of the numbers of famous tv shows it's like the last episode of friends had fifty five million viewers like more people will view that then we'll view anything now right some people foolishly like they're kinda nostalgic for this and so they're like i'm gonna create something that has that or we i wanna get back to that it's like no no we just didn't have better options people have voted with their eyes they don't want that they wanna look at something that's hyper relevant to them my wife and me we have very very different tastes like i wanna see you know the highlight from to you know today's nba games and she couldn't care less about that you know she wants to see oddly satisfying people doing crochet on instagram because it helped her d stress after a dave kids or whatever right like we've have totally different content taste and the algorithms now give us that so this idea of mass personalization something that would have never been possible it became possible why because first everybody started creating right so instead of a journalist you'd had bloggers instead of bloggers you had tweets and then you know instead of just tweets that are just text you have some guys who just do just images some people who do do just videos some people do just text so everybody became a creator supply went up you know ten million x and then on the other side the algorithm was able to editorial curate for you based on your signals automatically so there was no human editor who had to choose what goes on the front page for you okay that's the that's that's what news feeds did so i think that's what's gonna happen now for software so i think it's all personal software so you just showed a piece of personal software something that you really want to exist that i didn't really need to exist today all software gets built just like the newspaper industry you know centrally some people some really talented people make it and they gotta make something that's gonna appeal a little bit to everybody but now what what you just did you show that you can make highly personalized software not just sam who likes business biographies but sam who likes business and is going through these challenges in life right now and so tell him what he needs right now that's what that piece of software does okay so i think that's what's happening overall here and i think one category of personal personal software is not just in apps but in anything so what you did is called vibe coding so this trend or the thing i'm gonna show is basically vibe coding for anything else so i think that vibe coating which is you just kinda describe roughly what you want and then the thing kinda makes it and then you're like yeah but actually i think i actually wanted this sorry right like you're just at the table you're just ordering and the chef keeps making for you over and over and over again you didn't know exactly what you wanted it but eventually you sort of feel the vibes and you get yourself there so that's happening for everything so wanna show you this this is now happening for not just code but for other skills alright so i saw this on twitter and this guy basically was like hey if you ever wanted to be able to make music but you don't know how to use able and fruit loops or whatever like all these tools you don't know what what media is you don't know you know you you're not like super music talented watch this just kinda describe what you want and so i thought we will let's make one together here this is totally from scratch maybe this will be a bust maybe it'll be cool so basically you just describe what type this not a song this is like a beat in this case and so it's like how do how would i do this so for example i coach this high school basketball team and we have like warm ups before the game we wanted to be a hype situation so i was like oh what if we created so was thinking like right now i could type in hype basketball intro music for a high school team high energy build up make the crowd go wild i don't know what's gonna happen right that i'm not even talking in music terms i didn't say a key i didn't say beats premier i didn't say what instruments to use i went straight to the end as our buddy elon says and i just said this is what i want make the crowd go wild with this and so now you could see that this thing is thinking and so you'll see it's saying alright i'm coming put like some drums i'm gonna create a track for this and you could see it's created like stadium brass eight zero eight bass drum drum kit so if you look here on the side so here's the drum build up here's the eight zero eight basis so let me just play alright i guess it's giving me like the basics alright so now let's say and and for each one of these it's like hey i made a hook you wanna keep that or you wanna just like change it just do a different one so let me say so let me say add a big drop at the beginning i want it to be i don't even know how to describe this let me just say like lower in tone more masculine and let's just see what it thinks about that and so now i'm gonna send this have you seen that famous clip of justin bieber where he's humming to in orchestra and they're trying to follow along like the re retired version of that go go ahead like this up on youtube but it's like justin bieber who i guess i don't know if he knows how plain instrument or not but he's humming to the the or in i got or is like a twelve or fifteen piece sets and he's like humming many what he wants and they eventually get it this is sort of like that keyword sorta is doing some heavy lifting that sentence it's and it is it's cool that you're able to like do this so i told it this thing now it's like alright let me think let me try to do this while this does that i'm gonna show you the one i made last night so let me just so i made one for the podcast so i was like i tried to create a podcast intro song as my first thing so to check this out i went back and forth a bunch but let let me just play this okay alright what tree alright so that like a little a little intro loop you could do it then you could put vocals on top of something like that right you could you can go and add vocals with a for pretty tool or they'll add vocals eventually to this and it gives it is it called a mini so you can like it's like you can change the yeah so all of this is super export so you if you're let's say you're a dj let's say you actually do have skill you can export any of these individual pieces or the whole thing and alter it however you see fit so like in the important thing here is basically skill and taste to do something you always needed both you need skill and you need taste the skills is like the actual like knowledge and how to use the tools musical knowledge like technical knowledge things like that taste is what do i think is cool what do i think is interesting what you know do what do i like and now with ai those got d you don't need the skill you just need the taste if you have both obviously you're gonna make better things but like you can still be in the game if you just do this so let's just see what it did real quick is what i wanna be make it more magical that's pretty funny so like imagine the lights go out now this is on volume one hundred and our team is running out of the tunnel lights are flashing and it's that's our little that's our little like intro sound when we come out do you we gonna things like this and i'm like wow i i literally this was just you know like so i was like segregated i couldn't go participate participating in this field at all i was on the outside and now i can make things and because it's so easy to make i can make it for use cases i otherwise wouldn't have made sense like i wouldn't hire somebody to make this for me but if it takes me two seconds sure let me just do it alright let's take a quick break because i gotta tell you a story let me tell you about the first time i tried to run payroll for my team i was using a traditional bank and you know the type it's got a junky interface it's built like a two thousand and two tax form and it was open only during business hours and i hit send in froze they flagged the transaction they locked my account they put me on hold for forty five minutes and then they told me i gotta visit my local branch and that was the day i started looking for a new banking solution after asking a few founders what they were using i found out about mercury and so now my payroll is two clicks i can wire money i can pay invoices i can reimburse the team all from one clean dashboard that's why i use it for all of my companies and so do two hundred thousand other startup founders and so if you're looking to level up your banking head to mercury dot com and apply in minute mercury is a financial technology company not a bank bank the services are provided through choice financial group call them man a and evolve bank trust members fdic our guys like rick rubin who like can't play music by these creative geniuses are they like i'm so happy this stuff doesn't exist when i was trying to convince everyone when was a guru because now i otherwise i actually i have to go and like make no i think he's actually pretty big into this and he's like yeah i told y'all all tyson is what matters right they like this has been his thing from the beginning there's actually a very very popular i don't know have you used listened to any ai music like yeah like well i listened to where there's a cool john lennon song that it wasn't finished when he died and they had him saying it that's cool yeah there's yeah there's like there's a youtube channel like impossible rap song or something and it's basically like collab with it'll be like tu o'clock and then like a rapper today right like two bucks dead but there's you know rapper him they'll they'll collab on a song basically like music that couldn't exist but we make it exist there's like first ai music ai musicians that i've gotten record deals just recently happened i think one of the top country songs in the world right now is an ai song called but i think it's like walk the line or something like that so ai music is a thing i've been using pseudo a lot i won't i won't bore you with my my son track i'll tell you i'll send it to you after this but like i make a lot of music at pseudo now and it's incredible fun like i if you've ever had any level of a music itch you gotta get on sooner forget this little like beat maker thing i showed you in music like sun knows is the real deal where you can actually make good songs like i no longer if if i'm working out like we no longer listen to mainstream music it's all music we've made for ourselves me and my training all play yeah no no ever like i mean that's like an hour play hour long playlist every day and then we'll we can each just add to it so like i'll add play the top one play the most your most listened soon sun song i mean i use sun like the week came out and like you can't tell it like for example you can't tell it to say sing frank sin like this but you can describe a frank sin song or frank frank sin not your voice and it will create something very similar right alright i'm gonna give you some choices do you wanna listen to something that kinda makes you feel like you're on drugs and maybe you're in that one show what's that show called like euphoria alright if you want the euphoria song do you want the indie singer song writer song or do you want like a fun kinda of rap rap song which one do you want i have to go with euphoria okay alright this is the euphoria track it's called des sean james you're next club this is awesome alright now my my sister is moving to spain so you could just make songs four friends about like whatever is going on like birthday party or whatever whatever the situation so i sent up the song called america's finished i'm a leave a medical swimming and put in spain five key and neck you could come cellular this is awesome alright let me show you something can i show you something alright so sean let me ask you a question what is the reason why you don't shop online more i don't know what's gonna look good on me okay well i'm i'm i'm i'm half solving for that so okay i love buying stuff online the problem is is that your boys got big old thighs and finding clothes that fit is quite challenging now i don't know did you know this that when you a lot of people don't know this but i actually don't know like how common this is but did you know like when you go and buy clothes that there's this thing called the size guide and you could see the measurement of the the garment or of the clothing yeah well yeah every site has this but the problem is they're like oh is your cla four inches i'm like i don't know like what yeah how do i know these measurements wins this not helpful to me so here's what i did i found like i went to a bunch of websites and i found the most common measurements that they ask you is incredible i created this photo where i actually just measured all parts of my body that are common so like thigh me calf and then like my sleeve length whatever and for a long time if i was if i was gonna buy clothing from like a high end store i would actually send this to them occasionally and i would say just send me the right stuff you sent them this get in store yes and it was incredibly effective what did they say they're like i suggest that you buy given this security you will not be allowed yeah you are now in a list i'm telling you it's weird but like it it's been very effective very strange but it's been effective now here's what i did i use claude code first of all no way you measured all these things yourself you had that friend or sarah who who who measured these for you you you can't always measure all these things with one hand like this no i had to have my wife just sit there and do it and it was a pain in the butt and so for a long time i would you keep this like in my google drive and i use it as reference when i would go and buy and clothing but the problem is that it was just like kinda cumbersome it it was kind of a pain in the butt and so what i did was i made an app using cloud code where i would enter in all of those measurements then i would have to add two more things the first thing is i would add a link to the product so for example let's say i wanna get a dress shirt let's say i gotta go somewhere and i gotta wear a tie and i wanna wear guy i gotta get a dress shirt right now i'm not sure if i'm a large or an extra large because i'm right between sizes but it has a size chart and so what i did was i built an app where you take a photo of their size chart then you get the link of the product so they know it's for this style of shirt which should fit a very particular way you entered in here so here's when i posted a link then i just took a screenshot of the shirt size or of the size chart and it tells me based off of you know these measurements you should get a sixteen point five in shirt and here's my reasoning and in order to like train it i actually there are a bunch of books on how clothing should fit and i actually uploaded that to this to like to have like a reasonable good to be like reasonably good at picking which sizes to buy and so i've been using this and it's been really effective and in fact i buy a lot of stuff off ebay because i think it's fine i like finding vintage clothes and a lot of ebay sellers will put the measurements in there and the problem with vintage clothing is large extra large it doesn't matter it's irrelevant for old stuff and so you have to go buy the measurements and or if you buy european stuff large extra larger doesn't really work because like if you buy like japanese stuff which i do like there they're different sizes so i actually wear like a three acts and japanese stuff and so you have to follow the side guy size guy and so i made this and it's been incredibly effective i've been using this for little while a couple weeks and i've ordered like three items based off of off of the size that told me wow incredible it is incredible what you meant so you're actually using this to buy stuff yeah would you think a guy wearing overalls in a midwest trash trucker hat would be trying to find the right fitting shirt so there's no collar gap when i wear a tie you probably wouldn't but that's called being ec my friend it's kinda like what are those food like ins or like you know foods were it's like looks like one thing on the outside but it's wrapped and on the inside is a whole different animal that you just didn't even know was there that's what you are my friend you're at tu du it's pretty awesome i think if you are a clothing nerd you guys wanna understand what i'm talking about or if you're like a in between different sizes it is kind of a pain in the butt to like figure out oh you could've publish these or you're just like i'm gonna use this myself i don't need to make this available and do that make philanthropic like the api stuff it's really expensive like i've you i used like forty bucks this weekend just like on me using sure like it was really expensive but like i'll use it on ebay so you've go to ebay and you wanna buy like something old or vintage it tells you the measurements and just like one night of doing it it's like three dollars so no i'm not gonna publish it but or maybe i don't know maybe i could charge for it i guess that'd i'd be a cool project to try to build like an interface that you could charge for wow okay this is cool alright my turn i have a more serious business use case one but at this this will kind of blow your mind for like actual being in business okay so what's the high level i have a company and it's growing really fast and it's scaled into from zero to tens of millions in revenue in like two years normally to do that you you have to hire a lot of people right because like it's like a services business like you have a lot clients and those clients need to be happy otherwise they're gonna like leave at the end of their contract and so how do you actually like manage all this and so our team built this tool internally that does the following it take it basically reads into all your all your stuff so it's like cool i got connection to hubspot i have connection to your fathom video recordings from all your sales calls i have access into slack i have access into your accounting software so i know when bills get paid i know i can i can read anything on the inside k that's the first thing it does now check this out okay so this is like let's say this is so this our dashboard so are any of our team any of our sales team or customers who this team can go in to like look at a customer okay so here's a customer right and so you just see like okay what's like what's the overall it it auto generates all of these things nobody had to manually enter anything so it says here's the status they're at here's when they started here's who's working on it here's you know the link to their project plan all that stuff it automatically goes and grabs all that was this like a crm that you built or is this like we this is the tool we built it so now if i clicked the renewal which is like important right it's like it'll say here's the current ac here's the target ac here's our based on all the conversations we've had like it goes and it reads the last status update the last client call we had it analyzes the sentiment and it says based on the sentiment the client's really happy we're we have high confidence that they're likely to renew and then here's where we think the the here's the adjusted nr that we think it'll have it'll be a seven percent expansion based off of what we see right now alright so that's the first thing you see which is sick then there's like an agent in here that we created so you could just talk to the to the contract you could just talk to the deal that's to the customer record and you could be like hey you know tell me about what what are the top three expansion opportunities that we should be pitching them like what other services do we have that they might be interested in based on what you know about them and it'll look at public info it'll look at the call transcripts it'll look at whatever to try to figure that out it'll look at our internal database of services we offer and cross check all of them and it's like we think it could it could offer x y z and then it's like cool can you make a to do list or make a to do action a task for me go it'll update automatically in like our task manager of who's gonna follow up about these expansion opportunities and win and then it goes and it creates the task and now that's a task that's sitting there and anybody else in the company if they wanna go look at this customer they can see this conversation and they can actually like benefit from it so they if they go and look at the customer record they'll see that somebody's already brainstorm expansion opportunities and there's a tip to do already created from this somebody's already on that has that been has your custom employees found that to be productive or is it buggy like does it it works good enough that it adds a lot of value yeah this is like our command center for the business there's one guy built this whole thing in like you know three months there's so much information and so much stuff happening it's so fast i i'm am i'm very thankful i'm not twenty two right now i'm very thankful i'm in the position where i'm now to be able to use this stuff it would be easier if you were twenty two it'd be easier than ever to be competition is way harder but the opportunities like it's kinda like musical chairs if you're playing musical chairs and suddenly five new players get added to the game they double the number of players in the game yeah it gets way harder but if you fifty x the number of chairs and you add fifty people it doesn't matter there's still so many chairs to go sit in that's the ai ai is like every single product in every single category plus a whole slew of new categories just came up for grabs because ai like changes what can be done and so the opportunity set is so much bigger that yeah there's more competition but doesn't matter because you would rather have you know you'd rather have as huge multiplier on the number of possible ways to win and how easy it is to build than less people and every company just needs one of these one of these ai guys is in you need many you need many of them in the as many as you can have i talked to a guy yesterday who has a company that's a billion dollar company and i was like you interested like what are doing with ai because i know he's smart and i'm like he's gonna be doing something and he goes yeah i'm playing i'm constantly messing with cloud code and and figuring out what i can do he basically just appointed a ai general manager so he's like yeah i actually just like hired a like not a human he's like i just created ai that can be like a manager for these projects and i'm trying to see how good i can make that he told me that just in improving customer support with ai and like building like making the developers more productive and getting rid of his his like junior programmers who are not very good not not good at using ai just with those three changes he's like we doubled our profit margin they're already a billion dollar company so imagine doubling your profit margin off of something like that that's it's like so insane here by the way here's my here's my last perspective i think is helpful because i feel like this somehow you were excited and then you ended stressed out so here here's my last perspective that i think is helpful i think if you put on yourself that you need to become you know a top one percent five percent or even ten percent kinda ai builder user that's the wrong frame all you need to do is say alright i'm already ten you know top ten percent in business and content right you've already done all that in your life and now if you just get to like fifty percentile in ai which is not that hard to do it multiplies against all your other skills so the wrong game to play is let me go try to beat all the you know ai geniuses we're spending all day doing this stuff and are more technically oriented than me that's the wrong game to play the right game to play is i already know a lot of stuff imagine if i just got you know for for other people who have my skill stack or my domain knowledge about this industry i'm in that i've been in for ten years or twenty years how do you how do i just use just a little bit ai how do i just get like just good enough just dangerous enough where it multiplies against what i've already got because if you just compare yourself to the people who are technically brilliant or just on this twenty four seven or they're twenty two years old and their brain still is like super plastic and they can just learn anything super fast like i think you will feel behind but it's not really accurate it's not really the the the way to think about things alright what do you think yeah fun that was fun i think we do this more often i think we should use this as the forcing function to play with different ai tools and see what we come up with i'm down it was great it's just crazy how there's levels so you know buying the right size overalls to like you know adding ten points to your billion dollar margin to their on let us know the comments on spotify youtube we read all the comments let us know if you want us to do more of these style of episodes or if you have a tweak that you think would make these more fun or more interesting for you we tried to not bring on like an ai expert because sometimes actually the blind leading the blind can help because we we don't know too much right we could both be kinda dummies figuring this out together and i i've suspect that that's actually a more fun and better way to learn about this stuff then somebody who knows everything comes on and just spout a bunch of jargon at you that you don't really understand and you just feel stupid but maybe we're wrong maybe we'll mix in some experts as we go alright that's it that's bob i feel like i could rule world to i know i could be what i want to put at all in it like a days off on a travel never look back alright my friends i have a new podcast for you guys to check out it's called content is profit and it's hosted by luis and ph ka after years of building content teams and frameworks for companies
