<b>Hey folks, it's Mark here from</b><b>the Digital Nexus podcast</b><b>and I'm here with Chris.</b><b>I've got some</b><b>stuff from Bolt.new,</b><b>which is a really</b><b>great coding tool</b><b>that is starting to</b><b>rival what you can do</b><b>with Claude</b><b>versus Cell and Cursor.</b><b>The big players out there,</b><b>we've got Apple, Google,</b><b>Microsoft all have</b><b>some huge updates</b><b>across their various AI tools.</b><b>Looking at guardrails, you</b><b>know, mentioning that again,</b><b>as we kind of</b><b>ran into what it is</b><b>that the future of</b><b>AI is gonna look like</b><b>in terms of</b><b>workflows and even a big idea</b><b>that could be a</b><b>trillion dollar idea</b><b>that you can</b><b>take from us today.</b><b>Giving things</b><b>away as we talk live.</b><b>Check out the episode.</b><b>Mark can only count to four.</b><b>Mark can only count to four.</b><b>Mark can only count to four.</b><b>Mark can only count to four.</b><b>Happy Friday and we're playing</b><b>an accounting game here. Yeah,</b><b>that was an AI, that video that</b><b>you showed me, was it?</b><b>The same one? No, that's it's</b><b>from three years ago. Oh my</b><b>gosh. It's that old. It's that</b><b>old. It's pre-generative AI.</b><b>It reminds me of it. So it was</b><b>like Muppets kind of style, but</b><b>they're doing heavy metal.</b><b>And instead of all the bodies</b><b>hit the floor, it was I can</b><b>only count to four, which is</b><b>great if your</b><b>kids are into metal.</b><b>I've seen other ones where it's</b><b>like Warren G's regulate but</b><b>done by Bert and Ernie.</b><b>Where they haven't got like</b><b>someone to do the puppet stuff,</b><b>they've just taken scenes from</b><b>Sesame Street and they've</b><b>actually, you know.</b><b>It's really easy to yeah. Yeah,</b><b>that's really good. Anyway,</b><b>welcome back to another</b><b>digital nexus episode.</b><b>This is episode number 12. I am</b><b>Mark and this is Chris. What up</b><b>Chris? Welcome back.</b><b>Welcome back. Week number 12. I</b><b>can't believe we're 12 episodes</b><b>in this is insane. Yeah, it's</b><b>week number 12 of doing this.</b><b>We've probably been at it for a</b><b>bit longer than that just</b><b>because there were some gaps</b><b>and stuff, but that's all fine.</b><b>You know, trying to get you</b><b>this weekly news and what's</b><b>going on in the AI space. And</b><b>you've had you've had</b><b>quite the week as well.</b><b>Yeah, I have. I just came back</b><b>from Perth. So I was there on</b><b>Thursday. My day is a mixed up.</b><b>I'm just going to say any day</b><b>that ends in day. So Monday and</b><b>Tuesday I was in Perth.</b><b>One of those days I was there</b><b>for the Oz DeFi Association</b><b>running an event there talking</b><b>about blockchain crypto.</b><b>It's an association that we</b><b>started two and a half years</b><b>ago and was inspired actually</b><b>by the data science and AI</b><b>association that I</b><b>was running before that.</b><b>And so it turns out in</b><b>Australia, you can create</b><b>associations, you can give it</b><b>official standing names and you</b><b>get followers, which is great.</b><b>But we're seriously all about</b><b>like the education about how</b><b>blockchain helps about how</b><b>blockchain helps AI even.</b><b>And we were there with Alpha</b><b>Node Global and Healer Labs and</b><b>Alpha Node Global. So they're</b><b>an investment manager.</b><b>They traverse the markets and</b><b>help their wholesale investors</b><b>understand how they can do</b><b>things within the</b><b>blockchain kind of space.</b><b>And then they brought over one</b><b>of the groups that they do some</b><b>work with, which is Healer</b><b>Labs, which started out that</b><b>group started</b><b>out in AI actually.</b><b>And they've been looking and</b><b>working with the Singapore</b><b>government about how can you</b><b>use AI to protect</b><b>things, protect data.</b><b>If you've made and created like</b><b>models, how can you use in the</b><b>AI space, how can you use</b><b>blockchain to protect your IP?</b><b>So really interesting stuff</b><b>there. The replay just came out</b><b>on the Oz DeFi channel, which</b><b>you helped film for</b><b>when we do meetups.</b><b>But yeah, it was a whirlwind.</b><b>It was like their Monday</b><b>morning, like leaving early</b><b>Monday morning in Sydney,</b><b>getting back late night Tuesday</b><b>because of the</b><b>time zone difference.</b><b>Crazy. And how are you feeling</b><b>after that? Oh, good. It's only</b><b>three hours, though.</b><b>It's three hours before.</b><b>It's a three hour time zone</b><b>difference because Australia is</b><b>quite big. If you didn't know</b><b>it, you put it over a map.</b><b>It's almost as big as the USA.</b><b>Essentially flying from</b><b>California to New</b><b>York or something.</b><b>Or actually south to south. So</b><b>LA to Miami, for example, if</b><b>it's wide at the bottom.</b><b>Anyway, so I did that.</b><b>What else was I going to say?</b><b>There was something else. But</b><b>anyway, yeah, so that was fine.</b><b>Oh, four hour, four hour, four</b><b>and a half hours over there,</b><b>four hours back because the</b><b>tail winds and stuff.</b><b>But it's a three hour time zone</b><b>difference. So you literally</b><b>feel like you're in another</b><b>country, but it was great.</b><b>I mean, culturally, you know,</b><b>but yeah, definitely by</b><b>traversing, you do. It's quite</b><b>the flight. That's yeah.</b><b>That was fun. That's awesome</b><b>fun. That's really good news</b><b>for the D5. I'm really happy</b><b>that it's still</b><b>going over there.</b><b>There's good presence over in</b><b>WA. Very good community over</b><b>there with Tracy and Sophie and</b><b>Ronan and others,</b><b>like really kind of leading the</b><b>charge over there helping out.</b><b>And just a whole lot of like</b><b>really interesting</b><b>conversations with the people</b><b>in the community.</b><b>There was a whole lot of</b><b>questions when you watch the</b><b>video. The community</b><b>really gets involved.</b><b>They've got a lot of questions</b><b>and stuff about the space and</b><b>there's a lot of</b><b>new people coming in.</b><b>So hopefully they won't get hit</b><b>and flustered by, you know, the</b><b>frustrations that we've had</b><b>with the previous kind of</b><b>cycles that we've gone through.</b><b>They're getting into it as the</b><b>market matures, but we see that</b><b>with all kinds of markets, the</b><b>Internet, e-commerce, etc.</b><b>So yeah, what about you? What</b><b>have you been up to?</b><b>Man, I've been deep in this</b><b>project. I've been talking</b><b>about it now for a few weeks.</b><b>We've been on the tail end of a</b><b>big research output and</b><b>engaging with customers.</b><b>I mentioned this last week,</b><b>Tool Juno and really being able</b><b>to take advantage</b><b>of that properly.</b><b>I've talked about a lot. I've</b><b>used it a couple like double</b><b>doing a bit in the past, but</b><b>this time we went</b><b>full hedge into it.</b><b>I'm really impressed with the</b><b>output that it has brought up</b><b>with, consolidating the</b><b>insights it</b><b>pulls from customers.</b><b>You're double checking those</b><b>and making sure that it lines</b><b>up and everything like that.</b><b>Well, I mean, yeah, so the</b><b>simising, yes, but in terms of</b><b>how, so I mean,</b><b>essentially what it is,</b><b>rather than having to talk with</b><b>someone, you're sending out an</b><b>almost like a chat tool to a</b><b>particular customer.</b><b>Yeah, you mentioned it. They</b><b>can go back and forth.</b><b>And they will have a</b><b>conversation in a chat almost,</b><b>but it's actually an AI that is</b><b>managing the chat.</b><b>That's really interesting. I</b><b>can imagine. I don't know if</b><b>they do this, but I'm just</b><b>thinking ahead.</b><b>But you'd want to be able to do</b><b>that for surveys where if</b><b>English is not the first</b><b>language or something,</b><b>or they do have like a foreign</b><b>language or their level of</b><b>understanding comes from like a</b><b>different background.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>How can it help get you the</b><b>answers that you're after or</b><b>deliver information like</b><b>health, for example.</b><b>That's massively important to</b><b>be able to get the right</b><b>information in the right words</b><b>to the people that need it.</b><b>Exactly. So language doesn't</b><b>become a barrier anymore for</b><b>companies who may not have</b><b>native speakers for the</b><b>demographics that</b><b>they're talking with.</b><b>Fantastic.</b><b>Yeah. And then on top of that,</b><b>you're able to quickly then</b><b>pull out</b><b>insights, use the quotes.</b><b>And then on top of that,</b><b>there's a reporting tool which</b><b>then grabs early insights and</b><b>gives you all the key themes,</b><b>utilizing its AI tools. And</b><b>that's what you start</b><b>to cross check things.</b><b>But completely accurate on the</b><b>most part that I've saw.</b><b>And then I use that and feeding</b><b>that back into other AI tools</b><b>to then generate reports in the</b><b>structure that I needed to pop</b><b>it out into personas</b><b>and start building really big,</b><b>complex customer journey maps</b><b>and blueprints and the like.</b><b>So it's been a lot of fun.</b><b>Love it. I mean, you touched on</b><b>a point there. We are in an age</b><b>where we still jump around in</b><b>different apps because that's</b><b>just how it is.</b><b>And we need to and stuff. And</b><b>obviously, there is limited</b><b>like screen real</b><b>estate for folks.</b><b>But we're seeing more and more</b><b>of this consolidation.</b><b>And we'll go through a bit of</b><b>that today where we're seeing</b><b>apps that kind of bring</b><b>different features together to</b><b>kind of make it easier for you.</b><b>I wonder when we'll get to an</b><b>age where you can just go,</b><b>here's the work</b><b>I'm trying to do.</b><b>You just type it in and the</b><b>apps just get auto generated in</b><b>front of you because we're that</b><b>good at AI that it's the task.</b><b>It doesn't matter the app.</b><b>There is just like the one it's</b><b>almost like a Star Trek</b><b>universe where you just think</b><b>of something or you say</b><b>something and the machine</b><b>creates it at 3D prints it like</b><b>imagine like the proverbial 3D</b><b>printing of the apps that you</b><b>need because your</b><b>job is to get surveys.</b><b>So it's going to create the</b><b>proper survey apps and then</b><b>just going back</b><b>and forth with it.</b><b>Have I just given away a</b><b>trillion dollar idea?</b><b>Probably. But I don't think</b><b>we're too far away from that</b><b>kind of stuff happening.</b><b>I mean, for me the workflow so</b><b>far has been I've been using</b><b>I'll do my own Google search.</b><b>I find my own sources.</b><b>Sorry.</b><b>I'm not used to that.</b><b>Well, this is it. Right.</b><b>So that only takes me so far.</b><b>Oh, you need the AI company.</b><b>And then straight away I've</b><b>jumped into perplexity and I've</b><b>used mainly perplexity for a</b><b>lot of that research basis</b><b>because they can both give you</b><b>the resources and the summaries</b><b>in the one thing.</b><b>So that became that became a</b><b>lot of my desk research.</b><b>And then from there I've got my</b><b>research which I pulled out of</b><b>Juno and then I've got another</b><b>bunch of in-person interviews</b><b>which I've used.</b><b>Dovetail I pulled all the</b><b>insights into that.</b><b>Dovetail into that.</b><b>I pulled all the insights and I</b><b>have this big bucket of</b><b>insights and then I've used and</b><b>I actually ran a bit of a</b><b>comparison this week</b><b>between 4.0 and 0.1.</b><b>And I've been I was really</b><b>impressed with the output that</b><b>0.1 was giving when it comes to</b><b>sort of</b><b>validating the research.</b><b>It's much more a bit more</b><b>structured, a little bit more I</b><b>guess it kind of explains</b><b>things with a bit more details.</b><b>It tries to be a bit more</b><b>creative with I guess like</b><b>explaining themes and pulling</b><b>out key insights and then</b><b>building those up.</b><b>So I ended up mainly</b><b>using 0.1 for the app.</b><b>But the only downside of 0.1 is</b><b>you can't upload files.</b><b>So not yet.</b><b>It's very much.</b><b>And yeah, I'm sure it's coming.</b><b>Those features are coming.</b><b>So it's very much you're having</b><b>to like do big data dumps and</b><b>into that tool in order to get</b><b>things like one which</b><b>is a bit frustrating.</b><b>But not bad though.</b><b>I think I think that you just</b><b>describing the workflows there.</b><b>You know, we have a lot of</b><b>friends that are in other</b><b>companies that are doing this</b><b>sort of stuff and asking us</b><b>questions like</b><b>how would I do this?</b><b>And like I was giving advice</b><b>yesterday to some</b><b>friends that work with us.</b><b>Sorry that work</b><b>next door to us.</b><b>And shout outs to</b><b>Anna Michelle Taylor etc.</b><b>And the idea around</b><b>like here's this big task.</b><b>How do we do it?</b><b>Do we put like one big prompt</b><b>in and we're not</b><b>getting the results.</b><b>It's like we'll break it down.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>OK.</b><b>Here's the first thing.</b><b>So finding the sources</b><b>validating the source of them.</b><b>The next thing instead of just</b><b>having one big multi step in</b><b>set of</b><b>instructions, which is great.</b><b>Right.</b><b>And it could get you where you</b><b>need to be for creative stuff.</b><b>But when it comes to reports</b><b>like sounds like the</b><b>stuff that you're doing.</b><b>You can't rely on it to be able</b><b>to get you every hit every</b><b>single step of instructions.</b><b>So breaking it down there</b><b>finding it easier</b><b>to do it that way.</b><b>But there are tools and this is</b><b>why we did stuff with psych and</b><b>why there's a genteck behavior</b><b>where you have agents.</b><b>First agent doing something</b><b>second agent doing something</b><b>third agent etc.</b><b>So there are ways that you can</b><b>make life like</b><b>easier and stuff.</b><b>But it's interesting hearing</b><b>about what you're describing</b><b>there with workflows seeing</b><b>what others doing because this</b><b>is where the solutions that</b><b>will eventually get created.</b><b>Are going to come from and it's</b><b>we want to hear from from</b><b>people out there.</b><b>Right.</b><b>Like I think part of the future</b><b>segment is probably be where we</b><b>dive into how people are</b><b>solving things as well.</b><b>But anyway, it</b><b>sounds like a busy week.</b><b>It was busy week long ago.</b><b>And then we took</b><b>all that inside.</b><b>We're building out like</b><b>designing nice personas, visual</b><b>cards, usable assets for</b><b>customers, customer to be able</b><b>to do the things I want to do.</b><b>So it's been a lot of fun.</b><b>It's been a good fun</b><b>intense but fun week.</b><b>Speaking of intense, it's going</b><b>to get like more intense.</b><b>And Sydney because like next</b><b>week is South by</b><b>Southwest Sydney.</b><b>Right.</b><b>Right.</b><b>I'm speaking at one of the</b><b>events, which is on blockchain.</b><b>And it's about how we the</b><b>original sin of the Internet</b><b>like the trust that was</b><b>supposed to provide</b><b>into it and losing.</b><b>You know, we've just been</b><b>commodified phones listening</b><b>all the time to</b><b>stuff and give you ads.</b><b>Your data is not yours anymore.</b><b>So how can blockchain kind of</b><b>bring that back?</b><b>So I'll be talking about that,</b><b>especially when it</b><b>comes to AI helping AI.</b><b>Are you going to any South by</b><b>Southwest events?</b><b>I'm not.</b><b>I can't.</b><b>Unfortunately, I</b><b>went to last year's.</b><b>I'm not going to lie.</b><b>I was just</b><b>pointing at the least.</b><b>I'm hoping this year might be a</b><b>little bit better for everyone.</b><b>I will be following along a lot</b><b>of the activities that are</b><b>going on, probably trying to</b><b>get to some of</b><b>the after events.</b><b>But I'm deep in</b><b>sprint mode next week.</b><b>Can I just say like I'm also</b><b>disappointed as well.</b><b>Last year, we tried to help out</b><b>through some government</b><b>initiatives that were</b><b>pushing us into this.</b><b>And we just didn't get to the</b><b>right channels.</b><b>We were being sold to buy</b><b>booths and stuff.</b><b>And great.</b><b>I know you guys need that at</b><b>South by Southwest.</b><b>But this is an opportunity to</b><b>actually showcase the ingenuity</b><b>and the cleverness of the tech</b><b>industry here in Australia, not</b><b>just Sydney, but</b><b>from around Australia.</b><b>And we were going to design</b><b>using blockchain tech and NFTs</b><b>for good in this sense, where</b><b>you get incentives.</b><b>If you go to the start of an</b><b>event, for example, you scan a</b><b>QR code and you</b><b>get some information.</b><b>If you leave halfway through,</b><b>you don't get to scan the QR</b><b>code at the end,</b><b>which would have given you</b><b>greater benefit results.</b><b>AI infused kind of like</b><b>summaries, connections with the</b><b>speakers and much more benefits</b><b>for staying at these events and</b><b>rewards for going to the</b><b>different events.</b><b>Incentivization, which is the</b><b>power of blockchain tech could</b><b>have been useful</b><b>there this year.</b><b>Shout out to</b><b>Annie at Build Club.</b><b>They because it's frustrating</b><b>going through the app, you type</b><b>something in and if it doesn't</b><b>find it, it doesn't give you</b><b>anything there, even</b><b>semantically related, because</b><b>it's just using old tech.</b><b>You have to find the exact name</b><b>of the thing, the exact name.</b><b>I couldn't even go on the web</b><b>and type in my name.</b><b>My name is listed on the actual</b><b>kind of website, but I have to</b><b>type in the name of</b><b>the event to find it.</b><b>So people that don't know the</b><b>name of the event, they're not</b><b>going to find me as easily.</b><b>Maybe the mobile</b><b>app is a bit better.</b><b>But thinking about how you can</b><b>improve stuff with AI, the</b><b>Build Club use Claude and just</b><b>for a few minutes and build a</b><b>better search of what's on</b><b>where you can</b><b>actually go to it.</b><b>Here's the thing.</b><b>It's like there is this massive</b><b>opportunity out there and you</b><b>and I will probably do</b><b>something about this where we</b><b>can connect communities.</b><b>We can actually bring the tech</b><b>into whether it's startup hubs,</b><b>it's communities, it's events,</b><b>it's conferences.</b><b>Why are we not using the tech</b><b>that's in front of us that</b><b>we're talking about on stage</b><b>that we never freaking use it?</b><b>It's so frustrating, man.</b><b>I mean, it's the other part</b><b>that's frustrating is that this</b><b>is an event that has been</b><b>around for quite a while.</b><b>Yeah, obviously over in Austin,</b><b>Texas and the US.</b><b>They've got London now too.</b><b>So congratulations.</b><b>So expanding out even further.</b><b>And it is like it's incredibly</b><b>successful and they've got</b><b>years and years and years of</b><b>strategies and ways of managing</b><b>large volumes of people,</b><b>events, conversations.</b><b>And it's like they didn't talk</b><b>with them at all to</b><b>sort that stuff out.</b><b>They just sort of go, OK, cool.</b><b>We'll take the brand.</b><b>We'll take the concept.</b><b>You know, I know there's a cool</b><b>try and do it the Sydney way.</b><b>It's like, no, come on.</b><b>There may be like a cost to</b><b>doing it, but there's so many</b><b>people that just want to</b><b>provide this stuff out there</b><b>for the benefit of the</b><b>community are willing to</b><b>provide it for free to be able</b><b>to showcase stuff.</b><b>Anyway, do better.</b><b>Do better.</b><b>That's right.</b><b>Well, hopefully</b><b>share a lot next week.</b><b>Share a lot of TikTok updates,</b><b>I have to see talks and stuff.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>I won't be able to go</b><b>to all of the events.</b><b>I'm going to try to</b><b>go to as much as I can.</b><b>Bill Club is doing a hackathon.</b><b>There's the tech kind of focus</b><b>there that I'll be at.</b><b>So I'm going to see as much as</b><b>I can and, yeah, TikTok away.</b><b>But yeah, really</b><b>excited for that.</b><b>But like with anything, we're</b><b>not the type that will just</b><b>rest on our laurels and just</b><b>go, oh, yeah, this is fine.</b><b>Like the house is</b><b>burning around us.</b><b>This is fine.</b><b>No, we can do</b><b>better, folks, and we will.</b><b>So, you know, be inspired.</b><b>Be inspired.</b><b>Love it.</b><b>Should we dive into the week?</b><b>This is it's been a week.</b><b>Like it has been a week.</b><b>Remember last week, it was a</b><b>little bit more around, you</b><b>know, the politics and business</b><b>and investments.</b><b>Business, politics.</b><b>Now a lot of updates have come</b><b>out this last couple of weeks.</b><b>Kicking off on</b><b>my side of things.</b><b>I've got this one, which is one</b><b>of the first links.</b><b>I'm not going to be able to</b><b>pronounce this.</b><b>Can you?</b><b>No, it's a halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo.</b><b>Halo though, Planet Halo.</b><b>It looks pretty cool.</b><b>It is this new.</b><b>What is it?</b><b>It's a video editor.</b><b>There's a few things that have</b><b>come out with video.</b><b>Oh, man.</b><b>It's all that we've touched on.</b><b>Meta, which I'm pretty</b><b>excited to talk about.</b><b>But Halo video just</b><b>released an update.</b><b>It's essentially</b><b>a text to video.</b><b>Is this Chris Pratt here?</b><b>This is, you can see it up on</b><b>screen for open recording.</b><b>And so what you're, essentially</b><b>what you're seeing here are</b><b>like really</b><b>complex video scenes.</b><b>I mean, you can click on any</b><b>one of these and we'll pop them</b><b>up on the screen.</b><b>Oh, man.</b><b>We got to do the cats.</b><b>And it's just an incredibly</b><b>detailed video generator.</b><b>Everything from the shading,</b><b>the lighting effects.</b><b>And we talked to, we've shown</b><b>some ones before.</b><b>And a lot of these really</b><b>powerful tools coming out of</b><b>China are just insane.</b><b>Really exciting.</b><b>Mini Max is like a</b><b>thing that we saw.</b><b>Cling AI is like</b><b>another major one.</b><b>This looks like a new one to</b><b>add to the growing list.</b><b>This is like the EV companies</b><b>coming out of China,</b><b>where there's just so many</b><b>different variations.</b><b>Exactly.</b><b>This is great.</b><b>Like we love a</b><b>bit of competition.</b><b>The cool thing about this is</b><b>that a lot of the existing</b><b>tools, they have kind of,</b><b>you know, it's very minimal</b><b>text to video input.</b><b>This one you can be highly</b><b>descriptive with.</b><b>So you can write really lengthy</b><b>paragraphs around how it wants</b><b>to generate it.</b><b>And it comes up</b><b>with these tools.</b><b>And it's a weird, scary hybrid</b><b>animal planet scrolling in the</b><b>plant, an animal plant.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>So in some other world, it's</b><b>like the animals and plants.</b><b>There's animal plants.</b><b>Animal plants.</b><b>Love it.</b><b>So you can edit the videos.</b><b>You can make adjustments to it</b><b>in the live space.</b><b>If you go back, there's a</b><b>really cool one where there's a</b><b>kid playing a video game</b><b>and a little augmented reality</b><b>character pops up.</b><b>And it almost looks like</b><b>something out of, you know,</b><b>like a Pixar movie.</b><b>Oh, this one here?</b><b>So it's really, yeah.</b><b>Yeah, that one there.</b><b>Okay.</b><b>Let's click on that one.</b><b>What the heck?</b><b>Okay.</b><b>AI movies are</b><b>definitely coming soon.</b><b>I've seen like-</b><b>So this is it.</b><b>This is it.</b><b>The AI movie is, we're not too</b><b>far away from being able to do</b><b>these generated</b><b>movie content or that's either</b><b>gonna, you know, support what</b><b>is happening in the</b><b>industry already or other.</b><b>Apparently you can even take</b><b>like shots of your face, I</b><b>think, and pop them</b><b>into these scenes.</b><b>Wow.</b><b>And stuff like that, which I</b><b>probably would want to do.</b><b>We should try it out and stuff.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>I'm happy with them</b><b>to try it on my face.</b><b>My face is already out there.</b><b>But I was just gonna ask.</b><b>So given that we've got</b><b>translation tools in real time,</b><b>we've got like even just like</b><b>the transcript, you can</b><b>translate that and</b><b>stuff, but we'll have,</b><b>and we've got like Hey Gen and</b><b>other tools where you can have</b><b>an avatar, but it's speaking in</b><b>different languages and stuff.</b><b>I can see, you know, we've got</b><b>the Golden Globes or like</b><b>whatever the TV, you know,</b><b>movie awards are and stuff,</b><b>like having more international</b><b>flavors to</b><b>these, because I would</b><b>definitely watch content that,</b><b>like, I'm not a fan of</b><b>subtitles because</b><b>I'm doing work a lot of</b><b>the time with</b><b>movies in the background.</b><b>I want to be able to hear stuff</b><b>and oftentimes with foreign</b><b>movies, like, yeah, sure.</b><b>They've got the dubbing, but</b><b>sometimes it's something that</b><b>could, but I'd</b><b>love to just like</b><b>watch something or watch,</b><b>listen in on something in the</b><b>background that is a</b><b>TV series or a movie</b><b>or something like that, that is</b><b>from somewhere else or even in</b><b>the cinemas and actually having</b><b>a really nice experience.</b><b>Imagine this world of movies.</b><b>It's like intergalactic or</b><b>interdimensional cable out of</b><b>like Rick and Morty</b><b>where you can just,</b><b>you've got millions of</b><b>different channels.</b><b>AI generated channels.</b><b>It's crazy.</b><b>It's on the fly.</b><b>Good for me.</b><b>I mean, if you talk to that,</b><b>because I mean, that's like on</b><b>the, on the</b><b>topic of translation,</b><b>obviously one of the meta</b><b>updates from a couple of weeks</b><b>ago, you know, they had the,</b><b>you could create your content,</b><b>post it up and an AI or the AI</b><b>will actually do the</b><b>translation and</b><b>actually mimic your mouth, try</b><b>to mimic your mouth in that</b><b>format as well.</b><b>So there are things like that</b><b>are coming that will allow us</b><b>to extend how we view content</b><b>that obviously traditionally</b><b>has been too</b><b>difficult to translate.</b><b>What's next for you?</b><b>Well, I was taking all the</b><b>topic of videos.</b><b>You've, you've highlighted it</b><b>nicely here, but the meta has</b><b>announced the</b><b>new video generator</b><b>called calling it the world's</b><b>best next video</b><b>generate, which is movie gen.</b><b>Just check this one out.</b><b>And so this is obviously</b><b>tapping into a lot of social</b><b>content to create and</b><b>generate all of this.</b><b>And I believe because it is</b><b>using the meta AI tools, it is</b><b>also open source.</b><b>Yeah.</b><b>So you have the ability to</b><b>actually utilize this and</b><b>create this content.</b><b>Look at this.</b><b>The, the on your computer.</b><b>And apparently it's not too</b><b>heavy as a, as a system.</b><b>If you don't have a really</b><b>powerful computer, you can</b><b>still, you know,</b><b>reap the benefits of,</b><b>of this open source.</b><b>So given this photo, for</b><b>example, of this person,</b><b>they've created this video.</b><b>So that, that is crazy.</b><b>Popping your own avatar in</b><b>there and</b><b>generating videos interact.</b><b>Having you interact with the</b><b>environment that is picking up.</b><b>That is crazy.</b><b>I'm seeing it.</b><b>I could see people using this</b><b>on like dating apps and stuff,</b><b>just having</b><b>photos of them with,</b><b>you know, former</b><b>presidents and stuff.</b><b>And like as if they're there.</b><b>Anyway, just be</b><b>careful out there folks.</b><b>You can generate with text.</b><b>You can edit it</b><b>with text as well.</b><b>So if you're on there or happy</b><b>with it, you can edit the</b><b>content live and adjust things</b><b>as it's, as it's,</b><b>you know, playing.</b><b>And yeah, this is the</b><b>impressive one that I've seen</b><b>on videos where</b><b>look at the lighting.</b><b>Look at the, you know, the back</b><b>of the person where the</b><b>reflections of the lighting,</b><b>it's, it's quite</b><b>realistic looking.</b><b>Just amazing stuff.</b><b>And even like the water effects</b><b>here, like this koala</b><b>writing a surfboard,</b><b>I love that they've, you know,</b><b>paid a normal to Australia.</b><b>So, you know, but it's not in</b><b>the, that it's a lot of the</b><b>things that</b><b>videos are currently</b><b>not to the best that is then</b><b>the sound output.</b><b>And this is where meta, even</b><b>though it's open source, have</b><b>been able to do quite well.</b><b>Look how realistic</b><b>this ghost looks as well.</b><b>That's nuts.</b><b>So that was, that's</b><b>pretty interesting.</b><b>How is this a video?</b><b>This does not</b><b>look like it, right?</b><b>This looks real.</b><b>Like even just the ripple</b><b>effects of the water.</b><b>I thought I could always tell.</b><b>You can look through a couple</b><b>of them sometimes and see, and</b><b>see a few bugs or areas.</b><b>But like on the most part, it</b><b>is particularly that one.</b><b>It's incredible.</b><b>It's going to be really hard</b><b>to, like if you've got, if</b><b>you're doing a real video</b><b>and there's like some sort of</b><b>like glitch or whatever,</b><b>people are going to see these</b><b>like false positives that are,</b><b>that's AI, for example.</b><b>So I didn't even like, look, by</b><b>the time we've got all this</b><b>tech in our glasses,</b><b>it'll be like that movie</b><b>replicants with Bruce Willis,</b><b>where everyone just stays in</b><b>their home and no one goes</b><b>outside and stuff.</b><b>It's your replicants.</b><b>Your whole life is your</b><b>replicant, AI</b><b>generated replication.</b><b>That's crazy.</b><b>So yeah, we saw that.</b><b>That was something.</b><b>Oops, let's go back.</b><b>We're going to</b><b>talk about that later.</b><b>Similarly, I guess, sticking</b><b>with the last sort of a video</b><b>thing that we've</b><b>got coming out there</b><b>is a Zoom kind of video-ish.</b><b>They've just really showed an</b><b>update where you can actually</b><b>have your own avatar now.</b><b>Okay.</b><b>Doing pretty much</b><b>being your video.</b><b>So your Zoom will let AI</b><b>avatars talk to</b><b>your team for you</b><b>instead of you having to</b><b>present your own head and face.</b><b>Kind of in for the apples with</b><b>apples headset.</b><b>I can see Paris like, look, I'm</b><b>just going to have kids.</b><b>There's a Zoom call</b><b>you need to jump on.</b><b>So you can create</b><b>your digital avatar.</b><b>You can, that can be the thing</b><b>that hosts your videos.</b><b>I guess you're</b><b>still doing the talking.</b><b>It's just that you don't have</b><b>to have your video on.</b><b>Looks like you're</b><b>being more engaging.</b><b>That's coming out</b><b>on Zoom very soon.</b><b>I guess it's raised a lot of</b><b>concerns around, I guess, trust</b><b>and whether this</b><b>could be misused,</b><b>especially for, if you're</b><b>having conversations, it could</b><b>be difficult conversations.</b><b>Firing people and stuff.</b><b>You don't have to be the CEO.</b><b>No, exactly.</b><b>But here's the thing.</b><b>I think it'll go more viral if</b><b>you're firing people with your</b><b>Zoom avatar, for example.</b><b>Yeah, exactly.</b><b>You become that company.</b><b>But the big thing is these</b><b>things will become so good.</b><b>You may not even tell that it's</b><b>fake, even if it was an avatar.</b><b>You just say it</b><b>is or if it isn't.</b><b>But there's a lot of</b><b>misinformation.</b><b>It could be people pretending</b><b>to be other people, like you</b><b>said, and not just in business.</b><b>Could be for</b><b>children and other things.</b><b>There's a real</b><b>protection risk here.</b><b>It's unfortunate.</b><b>There needs to be ways that</b><b>they'll try and get around this</b><b>with their account security</b><b>and stuff like that.</b><b>But it's still</b><b>pretty cool tools.</b><b>Security is important, man.</b><b>Yeah, cool.</b><b>But what's next?</b><b>Hit me up.</b><b>What have you got on there?</b><b>I've got a few things.</b><b>Let me show you.</b><b>Actually, let's jump to...</b><b>I've got little news here and</b><b>there and stuff, but I'll go to</b><b>something more interesting.</b><b>So I want to show you...</b><b>What I wasn't talking about</b><b>wasn't interesting enough here.</b><b>No, yeah.</b><b>You know, Freudian</b><b>slip there, folks.</b><b>I didn't mean it that way, but</b><b>maybe inside I did.</b><b>Here's the thing.</b><b>You'll be able to watch this</b><b>video in future with...</b><b>I reckon there'll be future</b><b>video watching tools where...</b><b>Whether for Zoom, which would</b><b>be scary, but definitely for</b><b>just watching things online,</b><b>where maybe it's with the</b><b>glasses, like sentiment</b><b>analysis and stuff.</b><b>Like imagine watching a movie</b><b>and you feel like a detective</b><b>because when the...</b><b>And the actor's really good at</b><b>showing certain things that the</b><b>other actors don't pick up,</b><b>but you can tell that, oh,</b><b>they're being conniving.</b><b>You could have these things</b><b>that you could watch like this</b><b>video and you can</b><b>see whether Mark</b><b>really was genuine or not when</b><b>he says that he was interested</b><b>in what Chris said.</b><b>We don't know.</b><b>There's going to be stuff like</b><b>that out there.</b><b>But speaking...</b><b>Something like augmented</b><b>reality involvement as well.</b><b>Imagine if you put the glasses</b><b>on, you're there in the movie</b><b>and then the character's</b><b>interacting with you and you're</b><b>just like, okay, I've</b><b>got to do this thing.</b><b>Oh, it's crazy.</b><b>It's ridiculous.</b><b>I think that there's going to</b><b>be some really interesting</b><b>stuff out there.</b><b>But one thing</b><b>that I think is...</b><b>And you mentioned it before</b><b>when we were talking about the</b><b>tools that you're</b><b>using day to day,</b><b>and we said that there'd be</b><b>this consolidation of bringing</b><b>tools together.</b><b>If you've heard of chatGPT's</b><b>canvas, where you can do more</b><b>interesting code editing,</b><b>a lot of conversational tools</b><b>with AI, you can already do</b><b>using it for</b><b>helping you out with code.</b><b>But the typical workflow is</b><b>that you go here, I want to do</b><b>this, or here's my code.</b><b>It's got this bug.</b><b>Suggest some fixes.</b><b>You go back outside.</b><b>You make those fixes.</b><b>You try and try again.</b><b>You iterate.</b><b>And you can get to some really</b><b>interesting places</b><b>and get stuff done.</b><b>But it is a lot</b><b>of back and forth.</b><b>And then you see</b><b>things like cursor.</b><b>Very early on, GitHub Copilot,</b><b>which was the original copilot,</b><b>was a tool which would help you</b><b>suggest fixes and</b><b>edits to your code.</b><b>Or it would say, "Okay, if you</b><b>want to add comments in, here</b><b>is what the comment should be."</b><b>So really</b><b>helpful for developers.</b><b>Then we saw cursor, which you</b><b>would need to install,</b><b>where you could run things on</b><b>your own machine.</b><b>And it would have the main</b><b>screen for all your</b><b>development of code.</b><b>And then another screen where</b><b>you could just chat about the</b><b>things you want to do.</b><b>Then we had Vercel, which is</b><b>more for websites where you</b><b>could throw things or Claude.</b><b>You could throw things in there</b><b>and go, "I want to</b><b>recreate this website."</b><b>And it would go and try to</b><b>create it for you with a panel</b><b>opening up on the side.</b><b>So you don't</b><b>just have your chat.</b><b>You have a panel.</b><b>And then that panel, it would</b><b>start to preview.</b><b>It would do the code</b><b>and it would preview.</b><b>Here is something called Bolt,</b><b>which does it in</b><b>an interesting way.</b><b>So I've got this prompt here</b><b>for a made-up association</b><b>called Future Made</b><b>that'll be focusing on</b><b>education and community and</b><b>bringing together different</b><b>pieces of technology and</b><b>teaching society about it.</b><b>And I said, "Make a profile</b><b>page where you can fill in data</b><b>about yourself.</b><b>Make a page for a forum, some</b><b>events and stuff."</b><b>And when I hit run on this, and</b><b>this is live, so this will</b><b>start coding away.</b><b>It'll go, "Okay, I understand</b><b>what you're trying to do."</b><b>It's going to open up some</b><b>sections where</b><b>you'll actually see it,</b><b>not just doing</b><b>one code at a time.</b><b>So here is, if I open this up,</b><b>what you can see here, folks,</b><b>and you've got a preview thing</b><b>there on the right.</b><b>There's the code in the middle.</b><b>But not only is it doing the</b><b>code that it needs to run,</b><b>usually you would</b><b>just see this one by one,</b><b>but in this web application</b><b>that you can just go to online,</b><b>you can see that it is building</b><b>the different components that</b><b>you would need.</b><b>This is a typical React style</b><b>page that it is building here</b><b>with your components</b><b>underneath,</b><b>profile page, home page.</b><b>You've got the app.</b><b>It's all in TypeScript, which</b><b>is a modern kind of language.</b><b>And you can tell it what you</b><b>want it to do it in.</b><b>And it will build it out.</b><b>You'll see the preview there.</b><b>Here is one I prepared earlier.</b><b>So if I just close that down</b><b>and just open this up,</b><b>this is one with the same</b><b>prompt where here is some</b><b>details of the page.</b><b>Obviously, you can put images</b><b>and stuff there.</b><b>I can go to a profile section.</b><b>This is not</b><b>connected to anything yet,</b><b>but you can help with get the</b><b>AI to help connect it to SQL</b><b>or PostgreSQL kind of like</b><b>servers where you</b><b>keep the information</b><b>or it might be on</b><b>some other database.</b><b>Here's a pretend forum with</b><b>some pretend</b><b>forum kind of things.</b><b>And then an events page where</b><b>you could connect</b><b>it up to like Luma</b><b>or meetup, et cetera.</b><b>And it doesn't just have to be</b><b>that I've even</b><b>given it an image.</b><b>And this is something where</b><b>I've given an image</b><b>of Google Finance.</b><b>And I said, I want you to build</b><b>something like this.</b><b>And you can see this page here,</b><b>a finance kind of dashboard.</b><b>I can click on here's the US</b><b>overall kind of</b><b>market performance.</b><b>And it's got top performing</b><b>stocks as well</b><b>as some fake data</b><b>about like what's going on in</b><b>that market, some comparisons.</b><b>But I can click on these fake</b><b>stocks, for example.</b><b>And I told it I wanted to have</b><b>a stock chart, which I'll</b><b>connect to real data,</b><b>but then also have recent news</b><b>as a panel as well as</b><b>like the latest tweets.</b><b>So if you can imagine it, you</b><b>can build your own</b><b>kind of data set.</b><b>I mean, I used to do stuff with</b><b>the ETF space and I'd use Power</b><b>BI to build it.</b><b>But the limitations are that I</b><b>can't just make</b><b>that a mobile app</b><b>or provide it so that it's just</b><b>embedded really</b><b>nicely in a page.</b><b>It's a bit use iframes and it</b><b>doesn't look as</b><b>good when you do that.</b><b>It doesn't scale as well.</b><b>But with something like this,</b><b>you could literally</b><b>build off data sets</b><b>that you can access and free to</b><b>use information.</b><b>But the key being that it gives</b><b>you all the code.</b><b>I can edit the code</b><b>here in the code editor.</b><b>You can see that it</b><b>sets up the structure.</b><b>I can deploy this, I think,</b><b>onto Netlify, which is like one</b><b>of the providers there.</b><b>Or the other key thing with</b><b>this is if you don't</b><b>want to use something</b><b>like where you have to put your</b><b>code in online,</b><b>you can actually download</b><b>Bolt.muse GitHub and run all of</b><b>this on your own machine.</b><b>And you connect to Anthropic,</b><b>which is the APIs that it uses,</b><b>but you could have your own</b><b>private version where</b><b>your data does net net.</b><b>I mean, you've got to trust</b><b>Anthropic, obviously,</b><b>but your data doesn't go to the</b><b>vendors and stuff.</b><b>It's a bit limited.</b><b>It's a bit slower than what</b><b>you've seen on screen before.</b><b>That first one that I was</b><b>writing here, see,</b><b>it's just made it now.</b><b>So it takes a little bit more,</b><b>a little bit</b><b>slower than Claude,</b><b>a little bit slower</b><b>than some of the others.</b><b>But it's the first outing and</b><b>it's free right now.</b><b>And you can pay</b><b>to get more tokens,</b><b>but you can do some pretty cool</b><b>stuff with the free one.</b><b>So yeah.</b><b>Very, very cool.</b><b>Being able to play with having</b><b>to play with that.</b><b>I think like the benefits that</b><b>that will have,</b><b>and we've talked about this</b><b>before, things like Claude,</b><b>is that you can take the code,</b><b>set up your own</b><b>separate entity,</b><b>set your own platform without</b><b>having to do any design,</b><b>or you can even take that code,</b><b>plug it into other tools</b><b>that then allow you to tinker</b><b>with the design in a more</b><b>meaningful way.</b><b>Yeah, like Figma, for example.</b><b>Like Figma or any other myriad</b><b>of tools, which I think is,</b><b>it's adding more</b><b>steps into your workflow,</b><b>but it's being able to give</b><b>people the tools who usually</b><b>may not be coders,</b><b>who may not be able to afford</b><b>to have a developer come in</b><b>and set up all their</b><b>websites and platforms.</b><b>This is just like that extra</b><b>step to give people the power</b><b>that they need to be able to</b><b>get their</b><b>businesses up and running,</b><b>get their</b><b>platforms up and running.</b><b>Absolutely.</b><b>And I think the key is working</b><b>out how those workflows can</b><b>work best for you.</b><b>Exactly.</b><b>A great sentence.</b><b>ChatTvT improved that one.</b><b>But yeah, that's both not new.</b><b>There are some downsides to it.</b><b>It doesn't get</b><b>certain things right.</b><b>But definitely</b><b>watch some videos.</b><b>There's some great tutorials</b><b>online for how</b><b>people are using it.</b><b>But I think you should watch</b><b>some of the videos that show</b><b>some of the downsides as well,</b><b>because you don't want to be</b><b>the first one to</b><b>come up with it</b><b>after you've done like 90% of a</b><b>project using it.</b><b>Then you find out at the end</b><b>that you can't do a really</b><b>important thing</b><b>or at least find a</b><b>workaround to it.</b><b>So, you know, keys to</b><b>check out some videos.</b><b>And if you don't have the time,</b><b>play it at one and a half or</b><b>two times speed,</b><b>which is what I do.</b><b>Yeah, very nice.</b><b>What else you got?</b><b>We talked about this many weeks</b><b>ago around the big players</b><b>coming to town.</b><b>your constant</b><b>updates at your request,</b><b>think deeper, some new photo</b><b>features, all the work.</b><b>So Copli had a really big</b><b>update that is pretty,</b><b>some of the tools really</b><b>exciting to see.</b><b>Improve Windows</b><b>search is another one,</b><b>so finding files in your</b><b>computer easier than before.</b><b>Like details, even about to</b><b>find things within pictures.</b><b>So now previously when you're</b><b>doing the generic search</b><b>within folders or in your files</b><b>in your computer,</b><b>it comes up with a</b><b>big list of options.</b><b>Now you can be</b><b>actually descriptive</b><b>about how you</b><b>search for things.</b><b>The new photos and</b><b>paint experiences,</b><b>they've shown off a lot of the</b><b>AI generating tools,</b><b>especially within</b><b>their canvas tool,</b><b>which I can always</b><b>forget what it's called</b><b>because I don't</b><b>use this very much.</b><b>Is it a canvas?</b><b>Speaking with photos.</b><b>Microsoft.</b><b>Microsoft Paint.</b><b>Oh, right.</b><b>Sorry, I'm</b><b>thinking OpenAI is canvas.</b><b>No, so you can</b><b>generate images from text</b><b>and edit them on the fly now.</b><b>I mean, there's a new sort of</b><b>updates around,</b><b>you can shift the bar and show</b><b>the different scales</b><b>of the image that</b><b>the AI generates</b><b>based on the little sketch that</b><b>you've created.</b><b>So lots of really</b><b>cool features coming out</b><b>for Microsoft users.</b><b>Similarly, Bing has also</b><b>released a few updates</b><b>expanding on their generative</b><b>search experience.</b><b>One of the companies that has</b><b>sort of been ahead</b><b>when it comes to</b><b>integrating AI in its search.</b><b>I know Gemini is coming to town</b><b>with this a lot more</b><b>as they're rolling that over</b><b>the next couple of weeks.</b><b>But obviously Bing has had some</b><b>of the AI search results</b><b>in their tool</b><b>for quite a while,</b><b>but they've just</b><b>released this update.</b><b>Essentially, it is giving</b><b>people the ability to search</b><b>with more detail in regards to</b><b>image and video,</b><b>doing a lot of deep search</b><b>within the world wide web.</b><b>Fantastic.</b><b>So good on them for releasing</b><b>some of those updates,</b><b>staying ahead of the game.</b><b>Obviously they've</b><b>got a big advantage</b><b>in doing partners</b><b>with OpenAI, but--</b><b>Definitely helps.</b><b>Definitely helps,</b><b>definitely helps.</b><b>Sticking with the big players,</b><b>Google has really some new</b><b>updates with</b><b>their search tools.</b><b>So their lens, Google Lens, if</b><b>you don't know about it,</b><b>for Android users out there,</b><b>probably very familiar with it.</b><b>There's a lot of integrations</b><b>with our mobile devices already</b><b>when it comes to</b><b>searching for images.</b><b>You can press and hold, the</b><b>search feature pulls it up,</b><b>circle the item and</b><b>it does a deep search.</b><b>It is now opening that up to</b><b>other details around video</b><b>and text, so being able to be a</b><b>lot more flexible</b><b>with the things</b><b>you can search now,</b><b>which you</b><b>couldn't do previously.</b><b>So it's a pretty cool update</b><b>for our heavy</b><b>lens users out there.</b><b>Some other</b><b>interesting and exciting news,</b><b>something I think we touched on</b><b>this previously</b><b>because they did some</b><b>minor announcements,</b><b>but Nvidia has probably</b><b>announced their new</b><b>NBLM open source AI tool,</b><b>which is now pretty much</b><b>accessible to anyone</b><b>who wants to do</b><b>the development work.</b><b>So really cool</b><b>seeing them touch on</b><b>the open source world here.</b><b>So it's called Open Frontier,</b><b>their class multimodal LLM.</b><b>Pretty competitive</b><b>out there on the market.</b><b>I said, stouting that they're a</b><b>little bit better</b><b>than things like meta</b><b>when it comes to math</b><b>and other types of things that</b><b>people might be utilizing</b><b>these LLM for.</b><b>Looking down at their</b><b>qualitative studies,</b><b>you can see they've</b><b>got some examples here</b><b>where they're</b><b>dropping in pictures</b><b>and they're asking</b><b>who's in this picture,</b><b>is generating that response</b><b>and then providing</b><b>details and descriptions</b><b>about what it</b><b>either sees in the image.</b><b>You know, they've</b><b>done it with animals</b><b>or even asked them to</b><b>explain the hilarity</b><b>of certain images</b><b>you can see there.</b><b>Dropped in</b><b>pictures around technology</b><b>and asked them to</b><b>explain what this device is</b><b>in more detail.</b><b>It's even, they've</b><b>even put in some scribbles</b><b>of someone coming</b><b>up with a particular,</b><b>some code on it,</b><b>like a little notepad</b><b>and it's actually generated</b><b>that pseudo code</b><b>quite accurately.</b><b>So it's pretty cool</b><b>as an open source tool,</b><b>really nice thing to have.</b><b>We know Nvidia has always been</b><b>on the forefront of AI</b><b>and they've got, you know,</b><b>they've got the tech</b><b>to be able to</b><b>support this kind of stuff.</b><b>You would hope so.</b><b>So, you know, very nice that</b><b>they're coming to the market</b><b>with some things that pretty</b><b>much anyone can access.</b><b>Love it.</b><b>I mean, this is</b><b>really cool stuff here</b><b>and Nvidia has done great</b><b>things for the</b><b>community as well.</b><b>Supporting events that we've</b><b>had at Data Science</b><b>and AI Australia,</b><b>two events there.</b><b>And then also the</b><b>Build Club had an event</b><b>we've done and video as well.</b><b>So yeah, really</b><b>great to see, you know,</b><b>people coming along to these</b><b>and what these guys are doing,</b><b>like seeing more</b><b>open source stuff,</b><b>making them more</b><b>widely available.</b><b>So really great stuff there.</b><b>What else you got?</b><b>Yeah, so Adobe has</b><b>come to town as well.</b><b>They've made a few</b><b>updates over their tools</b><b>over the last couple of weeks.</b><b>Elements, which a</b><b>lot of people may use,</b><b>particularly on</b><b>their mobile devices,</b><b>has made a few updates with</b><b>their image generation,</b><b>live editing,</b><b>removing people from images.</b><b>Yeah, look at that.</b><b>Remove the random strange guy</b><b>in the background.</b><b>Exactly.</b><b>So a lot of this was originally</b><b>managed just for their larger,</b><b>you know, their software tools,</b><b>which you might find</b><b>on your PC or tablets,</b><b>using the full fledged</b><b>versions of Photoshop</b><b>and Lightroom.</b><b>These are now coming to</b><b>Elements, which is very nice.</b><b>So be able to</b><b>remove people on the fly</b><b>with your mobile</b><b>devices, generate--</b><b>Remove all the</b><b>people from my life.</b><b>And also, yeah, exactly right.</b><b>And also within their video</b><b>editing Elements tools as well.</b><b>So very, very nice</b><b>couple of updates there.</b><b>Similarly, TikTok Maker missed,</b><b>I think it's back</b><b>on the video topic.</b><b>I should have had this</b><b>previously before.</b><b>Bike Dance, have</b><b>you heard of them?</b><b>Yes.</b><b>The owners of TikTok.</b><b>The owners of TikTok are</b><b>hitting the AI world</b><b>with their new video generator.</b><b>They're showing off some really</b><b>very detailed video,</b><b>I would say almost on par with</b><b>the guys we touched on before,</b><b>whose name I'm not</b><b>gonna try and say.</b><b>Hello.</b><b>Hello.</b><b>Hello.</b><b>Look at that.</b><b>But you can see I</b><b>pull up the example here.</b><b>I mean, it's--</b><b>That was very brief example,</b><b>but it is TikTok, they</b><b>only do brief videos.</b><b>Very, very cool with their</b><b>updates coming to town.</b><b>I don't know if it's available</b><b>for everyone yet.</b><b>I haven't had a</b><b>chance to deal with it,</b><b>but it is looking very, very,</b><b>very, very, very powerful</b><b>and accurate.</b><b>In the hands, they're kind of</b><b>went a bit wonky.</b><b>Oh, that's a--</b><b>Dark, it just fell</b><b>into the shadows.</b><b>It was like--</b><b>It fell into the, yeah.</b><b>Just the detail.</b><b>Oh, wow.</b><b>Some dramatic tears there.</b><b>Tears.</b><b>That is dramatic.</b><b>An actress known for the</b><b>thickest tears.</b><b>But you can see just the detail</b><b>in the person's face,</b><b>like their skin, the realism</b><b>that is brought there.</b><b>It doesn't look</b><b>like over powdered</b><b>like some of the</b><b>other AI tools do.</b><b>Wow.</b><b>Even like the</b><b>crisp of her lips,</b><b>like the showing</b><b>the indentations.</b><b>It's like--</b><b>Look, it's an ad for Giorgio</b><b>Armani or something.</b><b>Gucci Prada.</b><b>Something, your next product.</b><b>The question I'd raise</b><b>is where is it getting</b><b>all the content to</b><b>generate this from?</b><b>But you know, we'll let the</b><b>pals that be decide</b><b>what's happening there.</b><b>It's all the</b><b>TikToks that we do.</b><b>Super powerful.</b><b>Yeah, exactly.</b><b>All our TikToks are probably</b><b>being used to pick up.</b><b>Check out our TikTok, digital</b><b>nexus podcasts and stuff.</b><b>We're gonna be</b><b>doing more there.</b><b>Shorts and interesting stuff.</b><b>And lastly for me, cause I love</b><b>the gaming world.</b><b>I always wanna talk gaming.</b><b>This one is a Play Dream World.</b><b>Okay, let's bring it up.</b><b>Very, very cool.</b><b>Just keep the asset generation.</b><b>Just keep an eye</b><b>out for a while,</b><b>this little gaming feature,</b><b>but essentially it's showing</b><b>off a much richer experience</b><b>when it comes text to video</b><b>game asset generation.</b><b>Just build a dream forge,</b><b>describe your vision</b><b>and generative AI</b><b>brings it to life.</b><b>Wow.</b><b>You can fully manipulate every</b><b>asset you create</b><b>with Dream Worlds and hands</b><b>building tools.</b><b>Kids these days are so lucky.</b><b>Scaling.</b><b>Oh my God.</b><b>So we've seen like</b><b>EA doing their stuff.</b><b>We've seen the possibilities</b><b>with things like Minecraft</b><b>and Roblox.</b><b>This is just adding to that</b><b>huge mix of potential</b><b>when it comes to generating</b><b>pretty much anything</b><b>within the worlds that they've</b><b>been provided with.</b><b>So when it comes to,</b><b>I'll just get this down.</b><b>When it comes to like games</b><b>like this, right?</b><b>Something that, I've</b><b>seen it a little bit</b><b>with the Sims, for example, and</b><b>people that are on</b><b>and building in that</b><b>space and customizing</b><b>and my brother, like</b><b>he and his friends,</b><b>like, well, we'll do</b><b>some cool stuff there.</b><b>What I find interesting is that</b><b>you have this way</b><b>to generate stuff that I used</b><b>to play a lot of like</b><b>sports games,</b><b>for example, right?</b><b>And these sports</b><b>games, I'm not playing it,</b><b>but these sports games like NBA</b><b>and FIFA and all that,</b><b>you could see people</b><b>doing some elements</b><b>where it's a bit</b><b>more controllable.</b><b>Obviously it doesn't look</b><b>exactly like the sport.</b><b>It's not highly</b><b>realistic there,</b><b>but it's much more realistic in</b><b>terms of the simulation</b><b>of the lifestyle, the</b><b>surrounding elements of that.</b><b>I could see someone with</b><b>something like this.</b><b>Yeah, you're doing</b><b>it for like something</b><b>that's very much similar.</b><b>I mean, climbing high up here</b><b>is like very much</b><b>Assassin's Creed, right?</b><b>But doing something with like</b><b>FIFA or like NBA,</b><b>where you have the</b><b>players on the court,</b><b>you can move them around, you</b><b>can get them to act</b><b>and run and jump</b><b>in a certain way.</b><b>Not super</b><b>realistic, maybe not yet,</b><b>but you could just describe it</b><b>and you could</b><b>create your own version</b><b>of these simulation games that</b><b>have always been</b><b>the domain of the</b><b>EA Sports, the 2Ks,</b><b>the various kind of big</b><b>companies out there</b><b>that you're beholden</b><b>to and you have to wait</b><b>for them to do the updates and</b><b>stuff like that.</b><b>And I don't know how they price</b><b>something like this,</b><b>but imagine being able to</b><b>create your own game.</b><b>Like go back to</b><b>when you were a child,</b><b>be able to have that</b><b>imagination and creativity.</b><b>I think this is wonderful.</b><b>There's always a double-edged</b><b>sword to these things.</b><b>All tech can always be used</b><b>nefariously and stuff,</b><b>but hopefully they put the</b><b>necessary protections</b><b>and all that kind of stuff to</b><b>get this working.</b><b>This is really cool stuff.</b><b>Nice.</b><b>Next.</b><b>What's it got?</b><b>I've got a few things.</b><b>So speaking of, I</b><b>was showing you OpenAI</b><b>and this is</b><b>something from your list,</b><b>but with Canvas, so</b><b>chat.gbt.s Canvas,</b><b>I think is a good one to</b><b>showcase because it's not--</b><b>We talked a little bit about</b><b>this last week.</b><b>We've got really into this,</b><b>it's pretty cool.</b><b>Yeah, I mean, you</b><b>can see on screen here</b><b>that you can upload a document</b><b>and you've got this middle</b><b>section with the chat</b><b>on the left-hand side.</b><b>We've seen that</b><b>starting to come out more</b><b>for like various apps where,</b><b>we spoke about this</b><b>on a previous show</b><b>where it's like Google search</b><b>used to be something</b><b>where you would do</b><b>your Google search</b><b>and then you find</b><b>all the sources.</b><b>You have to find</b><b>the answers from that.</b><b>You have to drive</b><b>and click on things.</b><b>And that's fine,</b><b>you can still do that.</b><b>But with Perplexity, then you</b><b>would search for something</b><b>and it would give you the</b><b>summary of the information.</b><b>So it's done the steps to look</b><b>at the various websites</b><b>and it's got the summary and</b><b>what you have on the side panel</b><b>is the sources so you can go</b><b>back and validate.</b><b>Similar to here, the chat is</b><b>not the important piece.</b><b>The important piece</b><b>that sits in the middle</b><b>is the result, the outcome,</b><b>in this case, a</b><b>report on design notes</b><b>or the previous</b><b>stuff I showed you,</b><b>which was the code editor that</b><b>you would then have</b><b>and you could</b><b>flick to the preview.</b><b>That's the important part with</b><b>the chat on the side</b><b>where the left-hand side,</b><b>right-hand side,</b><b>various ways that</b><b>you can do that.</b><b>But just taking it further,</b><b>I just imagine that there's</b><b>just the one seeing all knowing</b><b>kind of sets of apps where,</b><b>whether it's for games like you</b><b>saw there before,</b><b>or it's for</b><b>business kind of workflows,</b><b>you just describe what's the</b><b>task that you're trying to do</b><b>and then it just is created</b><b>there for you in the middle.</b><b>Like the tool doesn't need to</b><b>be an existing tool.</b><b>It never existed before,</b><b>but it knows how</b><b>all these tools work</b><b>and it will just</b><b>create it for you.</b><b>And if you wanna</b><b>run it on your own,</b><b>the cool thing in the future I</b><b>reckon is gonna be</b><b>that you can have</b><b>sovereignty and ownership</b><b>of something like this because</b><b>you don't have,</b><b>like cool,</b><b>there'll be a marketplace</b><b>and someone will build like</b><b>really cool apps.</b><b>Then you go, okay,</b><b>I wanna use that.</b><b>Or they've got a</b><b>template that you can use</b><b>and you can subscribe to that.</b><b>But if you just wanna use your</b><b>own imagination,</b><b>you can do this.</b><b>And like I said again, I don't</b><b>think it was far away.</b><b>I need a video editor to be</b><b>able to edit this video</b><b>to do X, Y, Z.</b><b>Boom, here you go,</b><b>here is a version.</b><b>Mama Mia, here you go.</b><b>Here's DaVinci Resolve.</b><b>Here's DaVinci Resolve.</b><b>That's how he sounded.</b><b>Mama Mia.</b><b>Mama.</b><b>No, I'm not gonna do that.</b><b>(laughing)</b><b>Shout out to all my Italian</b><b>friends out there.</b><b>But the thing is,</b><b>I think it'll start off with</b><b>some of the basic stuff first</b><b>for reporting and</b><b>things like that,</b><b>but it'll get to,</b><b>and even reporting is like</b><b>complicated as well.</b><b>Just going into,</b><b>we're building out a market</b><b>intelligence tool with Psyche</b><b>and it's not that easy just</b><b>trying to figure out</b><b>what are the different elements</b><b>you need to grab.</b><b>And even when you're searching</b><b>for within a certain element,</b><b>there's a lot of</b><b>nuance to stuff.</b><b>Information isn't just all</b><b>available</b><b>publicly, for example.</b><b>There's proprietary information</b><b>that is behind,</b><b>firewalls and stuff like that.</b><b>But it is interesting seeing</b><b>the possibilities</b><b>of making workflows easier.</b><b>And we just</b><b>imagine before 2022,</b><b>when Chad GPT came out,</b><b>the workflows</b><b>that we used to do,</b><b>there's so much less</b><b>that you can get done,</b><b>knowledge workers, right?</b><b>And now you can do</b><b>things far more quicker,</b><b>but we need to make sure that</b><b>there are guardrails.</b><b>And it could be soft</b><b>guardrails in the sense</b><b>that this is just the standard</b><b>the company has</b><b>that if you're</b><b>signing off on something,</b><b>like if you're doing something</b><b>and using the AI, Chris,</b><b>it doesn't matter.</b><b>You just need to</b><b>have a sign off stamp</b><b>that you're saying that you</b><b>read over it, for example,</b><b>before it goes out to clients</b><b>or anything important.</b><b>And being able to record that</b><b>onto blockchain, for example,</b><b>what we're doing and</b><b>what we've answered</b><b>in the AI</b><b>guardrails submission,</b><b>there's also a submission</b><b>that's due next week,</b><b>which is about healthcare</b><b>and how the healthcare industry</b><b>can safely use AI.</b><b>I think having</b><b>these guardrails,</b><b>and some of them will be</b><b>mandatory and necessary</b><b>around like deep takes and</b><b>stuff like that,</b><b>laws and</b><b>regulations around that.</b><b>I think it's important</b><b>because we're really quickly</b><b>changing the way</b><b>that we interact with each</b><b>other and businesses.</b><b>It's like something I've</b><b>noticed with the updates</b><b>that have been coming out of.</b><b>didn't have those</b><b>building blocks.</b><b>So a way that you can use Psych</b><b>is literally that.</b><b>So on the screen here,</b><b>I've got different building</b><b>blocks for this AI safety thing</b><b>for the Department of</b><b>Health and Age Care,</b><b>where I've got</b><b>different sections.</b><b>This is like the background</b><b>that they've got here.</b><b>Here is the actual</b><b>consultation paper</b><b>that I've literally just copied</b><b>and pasted in just the text.</b><b>Psych's got its viewpoints,</b><b>but the cool thing</b><b>is that I can choose</b><b>which building blocks I want to</b><b>actually work with.</b><b>So I don't want any of these</b><b>ones at the end, for example.</b><b>So I can just literally turn</b><b>those things off.</b><b>I've got the views.</b><b>I just want to ask about the</b><b>consultation paper,</b><b>for example.</b><b>So I can just turn</b><b>off those things there</b><b>and just say, give me a summary</b><b>of the consultation paper.</b><b>And it will just look at the</b><b>building blocks</b><b>that you've got there.</b><b>So if you're doing reporting,</b><b>doing analysis,</b><b>doing anything where it needs</b><b>to be broken up</b><b>into these building blocks that</b><b>you can summarize</b><b>and piece back together or to</b><b>write chapters on,</b><b>being able to break it down,</b><b>something that Psych</b><b>is helping out with.</b><b>And it's free to subscribe</b><b>right now, folks.</b><b>So you can</b><b>definitely check this out.</b><b>You can go in there</b><b>and just do analysis</b><b>on different sections,</b><b>or you can even go</b><b>into one of these sections</b><b>and just use the AI to actually</b><b>just give a summary</b><b>of something that</b><b>you're doing here.</b><b>So I can say, give</b><b>me a summary of this</b><b>in dot points, for example.</b><b>So this is just a</b><b>long string of text</b><b>that just shows Psych's view</b><b>that we had on the space</b><b>and here is a shorter summary.</b><b>So using AI in various</b><b>ways to help you out,</b><b>I think is really key,</b><b>a message to get</b><b>out there for people.</b><b>But something that I think that</b><b>we could do in future</b><b>and stuff as well</b><b>for these episodes</b><b>is more showcasing like we</b><b>showed with this</b><b>and with Bolt, like how you can</b><b>do things with AI,</b><b>but even just discussions</b><b>around some of</b><b>the workflow pains</b><b>that we might be seeing</b><b>or that we're helping</b><b>to solve for clients,</b><b>because I think what's being</b><b>asked there from people</b><b>is just how do we use,</b><b>how do we keep up with</b><b>everything that's going on?</b><b>There's so many news channels</b><b>and stuff like that.</b><b>That's great.</b><b>And yes, we cover those things</b><b>because it's important,</b><b>but showing more</b><b>about what you can do.</b><b>So stay tuned for that</b><b>because we'll do some</b><b>interesting stuff there.</b><b>Love it.</b><b>Cool.</b>
