My years of dedicated advanced research in the Ai industry with LLMs & multi-model frontier models has afforded me some interesting insights and experiences. Due to a brain hemorrhage and autism, I thrive in the world of hyper-complex problems solving using fringe techniques to create novel solutions. Join me on this journey into the world of Ai, complex problem resolution, philosophy, trying to understanding existence and all things tech.

"And then you have people like Mark Cuban who thinks it's kind of fear mongering or we have seen these kind of technological innovations before and it just the jobs don't. People don't lose jobs in the sense that other jobs emerge. Example he gives is like the 2 million secretaries at some point and millions of people who used to take dictations in offices and all those jobs went away with more...
"But I'm opening it up to you guys because I think it's really important and I think it's time we kind of move the veil out of the way and we stop kind of. I don't know, there's always news coming out about AI but what you guys hear about AI isn't necessarily necessarily like everything going on in AI. It's just kind of the fluff or the, you know, fanciful stuff that everybody reports on....
"So anyways, this college put in AI bots, large language model bots, to interact in this setting, to respond to that kind of stuff. But these models were a little bit agentic. So when someone would make a comment and they would want to respond to the comment, they would go scrape the entirety of the Internet, find out everything there was online about the person that commented so that whe...
"And the next piece I had for AI News for this week was a new startup that I thought was pretty cool. You know, when I first started hearing about AI models and everything they're going to be able to do and solving diseases and personalized medical care, I like, I don't know, I'm guessing most of you Are like me. I've had so many people that have had cancer in my family, it's not even fun...
"Cause AI is about to flip the script on everything. Personalized medicine will tailor treatments to your DNA. No more one size fits all. Smart cities will make traffic jams a relic. And energy grids will run so smooth we'll wonder how we ever live without EM work. AI is gonna eat the grunt. Task, data entry, scheduling, even some creative gigs and spit out time for humans to focus on the...
"And yeah, that's true. We constantly need data to train these models more efficiently and more effectively. But we also need to figure out and solve the, the overalignment problem, the data problem. There's a plethora of different problems that we're not finding solutions for, but we desperately need to if we're going to have AI be a part of our lives and be useful in the way that we nee...
"Do you use, like really popular ones? Do you use ones that are more niche? Do you use a combo? And it's so convoluted that it's not even funny. And even Instagram contradicts itself with what it says you should do. I mean, they're the one that got us into doing, you know, a stupid amount of hashtags, up to 30."
"And being someone who's autistic, it's kind of especially interesting to do that sort of thing. So pretty much my autism and my natural, I guess genetic mutations lend pretty well to the work that I do. So I didn't get into AI development work just like because it was something I wanted to do necessarily. I mean I was like a lot of people. I was terrified of AI. I thought for sure like T...
"These are tough things to determine. They really are. Even the world's leading experts in those industries that are extremely versed in AI we've seen are significantly off because the reason why is this exponential growth. It's such a hard thing for the human to wrap its head around. Like, we can understand it cognitively, but, like, how it actually happens and what that means and what i...
"It's going to be a year unlike anything we've ever experienced or our parents have experienced. With AI involving itself in literally every facet of our lives, it's going to affect everything. And with this exponential growth rate that I discuss and talk about with you guys, you start to understand how quickly this can evolve and change. We as humans don't even really have a proper frame...
"I say it because I know how AI is quite literally going to change every aspect of your life rapidly and soon. And I don't want any of you to get left behind. This is going to be something that people that do not learn the tools of AI and I'm not talking about like what I do teaching models, but I'm talking about the tools."
"Why I'm not going to fall for something that I wouldn't do. But you might be surprised to know that we've started to realize something about AI as it's advanced and developed. And that is that it has an amazing tendency and natural ability to be persuasive. And that's kind of shown itself in many, many different ways."
"Follow after this episode is going to talk about just that kind of the whole scope, as well as some key things from the beginning of this process to where we're at now, what we're doing now, the less talked about stuff, the stuff that really you probably only know about if you're super involved or you're directly involved with AI development."
"And part of that is, where's AI going? So AI's growth is exponential. And if you're not familiar with exponential growth curves, it's kind of unfathomable, even if you are. So most of us are familiar with like multiplier, multiplier growth rates. So it's a 4x improvement, or it's a 5x improvement, but it's fairly linear and consistent where exponential growth is anything but it's compoun...
"You can see the first picture shows a project we did with Thermaltake and be quiet. So they sent us their new CTE750 case and their new magnetically locked swath fans, which are amazing. They have reversible blades. I'm all about it. Being in the industry for over a decade, this is a welcome sight because cable management is a nightmare quite often. So we built this custom PC and then on...
"And we wanted to do this podcast as a way to kind of give more insight, but also create more opportunity for our followers in our community and maybe new people that are unaware of what we do to reach out for help with their own projects or advice or to ask questions about the stuff we do."
"They're big in foreign markets, but they've never really been into the US market. So I help facilitate that transfer and make sure that they are doing the things they need to do in order to create a product that is conducive to the U.S. consumer. Right. So help them out with that. And that's a big part of what I do now. But like I said before, we do product reviews too. So don't just do ...
