EU's New Battery Law, AI in Windows 11, and the Game Changing Power of AI Tech

Ever been annoyed with your phone's dying battery, forcing you to consider buying a new device? Well, the European Union has you covered. This episode kicks off with us dissecting the EU's game-changing law, mandating consumer electronic manufacturers to make batteries in their devices easily replaceable by 2025. This means your device's lifespan could solely depend on how well you maintain it, rather than the whims of your battery's life. But what does this mean for the tech ecosystem? Strap in as we pull apart the implications on waste reduction, the potential boom for third-party battery manufacturers, and the likely shift in consumer behaviors.

Imagine if your computer could anticipate your needs and increase productivity seamlessly? That's not too far in the future. Our exploration of Windows 11 and its AI integration reveals some breathtaking advancements that could redefine your desktop experience. We've had a hands-on experience with the new features and boy, are we excited to share our insights! From familiar features receiving facelifts to brand new capabilities, Windows 11 is poised to be a game-changer. We also dive into how AI could play a pivotal role in marketing, productivity, and tasks like email analysis or idea generation for Word documents.

To top off our tech feast, we delve into the transformative power of AI technologies such as Microsoft's chat GPT and Dolly. These are not just some fancy buzzwords - they hold the potential to change learning and content creation as we know it. We scrutinize how these tools can help us learn at lightning speed and generate images from mere prompts. But with great power comes great responsibility. We also discuss implications in the workplace and the biases we need to be mindful of while using these tools. From small business owners to individuals, everyone has something to gain in this AI-driven shift. Buckle up and join us as we navigate this riveting journey into the heart of tech evolution.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So one of the big things that I saw, one of the
articles that I came across, wasthat the European Union just
Within maybe what?
A few few weeks, maybe a monthor so they released a, they put
into effect a new law thatshould fully come into effect in

(00:26):
in 2025 June to June, the 20thJuly 2025 that all manufacturers
I should really say likeElectronic manufacturer,
consumer electronicmanufacturers that use batteries

(00:47):
in their devices so, like youknow, a tablet or a phone or
stuff like that have to haveremovable batteries, and To be
more specific on that is thatthese removable batteries Need

(01:08):
to be easily replaceable,because, yes, technically right,
if you took your I don't knowyour phone to a Repair shop, you
know you give it to them for afew hours, don't come back,
though, and then you have abrand new battery in there, but
you know it.

(01:31):
But the thing is, is that's notsomething that you can do?
Sure, sure, apple and you know,some of the other manufacturers
have released like Thing ways,they've released guides and
stuff like that to do thisyourself, but they haven't
exactly made it super easy,right?
Most of the phones that we havenowadays are they.

(01:54):
They come with this beautifulglass on the front and on the
back that you have to Proveexactly.
So, exactly so.
You know you have to take thatoff.
Yeah right, you got it.
You got to take the glass offto get to the batteries.
Right, so for like instance,for, like your, your regular old

(02:14):
iPhone, to get to the batteryyou have to take the screen off.
You got to take the frontscreen off, you got to unclip
some stuff and you're gonna haveto have all the screws and bits
that require or that are ableto Actually get into that iPhone
.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
So so big thing, dennis.
And told me that, right.
And my question when heinitially told me this was who?
So who does this really affect?
Right, and then that's when Iwas like, oh, I Could be able to
just be sitting right here andbe like, you know, you got.

(02:51):
You've ever growing up, bro,you had those kids where they
just be with their phone.
You're gonna be doing that allover again, it's gonna be
classic.
It's gonna be on the back of aniPhone.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Probably right here.
Mm-hmm, let's drop it down, butthat's a big deal, man.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
Yeah, I think it's a huge deal, you know?
Yeah, yeah, they wanted to be.
Their big thing is to be allthis right here.
Yeah, they wanted to be.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
They wanted to be.
Their big thing is to be allthis right, even with moving
over to putting in that rulewhich we've all seen on the
newest iPhone, that you, thatthe newest iPhone has a USBC
port, right, the reason why theEuropean Union also did a big
ban or a big push to force allmanufacturers to adopt your
iPhone, was because they weretrying to reduce cable waste.

(03:45):
All of this is to try to do asmuch as they can, you know, to
mitigate more one help the theend user in general, but also to
mitigate waste.
Right, because you know we,when you've got like multiple
manufacturers who have differenttypes of cords, different types

(04:07):
of cables, that's an issue.
Yeah, right, that's more wastethat you're creating.
Because you know now instead ofor I should say you know before
in some ways.
Right, because I think our lastbig bastion of Different cables

(04:28):
has has finally fallen, sincethe iPhone is now moved over to
USBC, right, yeah, exactly.
So that makes it to where youknow this.
Now, this one cable is here torule them all.
Right, one cable to rule themall.
You can bring one cable on atrip and that that that's going
to charge everybody phone.
You don't have to have alightning cable.

(04:49):
You don't have to have anything, you just get this one little
cable.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
I can't.
I can't charge your iPhone.
I have a micro USB, sorry.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Yeah Well, you'll see again trying to get rid of that
.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
I know those are words that would get you broken
up with.
Sorry, I'm micro USB, like what?

Speaker 1 (05:12):
I don't know how you feel.
I mean, I feel like that's, youknow, similar to how it is in
the US.
I have to specify when peopleare saying like, oh, you got
that green bubble, don't know ifI want to talk to you now,
right, she told me.
You know, I have a lot to sayabout that, but I'm not going to

(05:33):
get into that topic.
I've gotten there before.
Tough times, man, hey.
Hey, this is all Apple's fault.
You know, apple is the onewho's created this wall garden.
Android, google has freelyadmitted that they are open to
better conversations.
That's not the green bubble,but I digress, I digress.

(05:57):
All of this is to do is toreduce weight, and the battery
swapping thing is another thingto help reduce weight, or not
weight, but waste, of course,weight, I guess weight in waste,
but whatever, well, and not tocut you off, but actually I was

(06:20):
thinking about this wouldn'tinvite more third party battery
manufacturers, wouldn't it?
Yeah, it can, it can.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
So you could have an advancement in technology?
Of course you could.
You'll have some cheap ones too, but you could have, you know,
lighter and longer lastingbatteries perhaps right?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yeah, yeah, there could be yeah, there's that More
, more third party manufacturersto create like swappable
batteries in there.
That'll go in really quick andeasy.
This also makes it to where youcan hold on to your phone a lot
longer, right, I'm sure there'splenty of people who move over
to a different phone, notbecause the phone isn't working,

(07:05):
but it's because the batteryright is atrocious at this point
and no one wants to go out andpay, you know, on their two
three year old phone pay, like Idon't know, in some cases for
Apple $400-$300 just to get thebattery swapped out.
Right, that's more than half thevalue of the phone, if that, if

(07:28):
anything, it might be even morethan the phone is just to
replace the battery.
Of course, sure, definitelyreplacing that battery can
probably last you a little bitlonger, but it's just, it's a
heavy cost for most users.
And so if you make thesebatteries easily replaceable
batteries in general, like frommy old V20, that I have my LG

(07:51):
V20 those batteries I can getreplacement batteries.
They're harder to find butstill if I can find them, those
battery I can buy like two ofthem and I and it's going to
cost me, like I don't know,maybe 20 bucks.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Right, right, well, exactly.
And the thing I would say, too,is, if you're spending that
much money for Apple batteryreplacement, you're getting
screwed, because wasn't it wasabout a year ago?
I was down Dallas, went to anApple store, I don't remember
which one.
I think I went to Stonebrother.
No, no, no, no, I know where Iwent.

(08:27):
It was the Galleria, and theychanged it out and swapped it
out for me.
I think it was 80 bucks, 80, itmight have been 89, if
something around there maybe itwas more.
I'd have to go back, butregardless, it can still be too
expensive, but it should not bethat expensive.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
You know, I mean yeah , well, exactly, exactly.
So you know it's, it's one ofthose things.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
So it was oh good, even better $69 $69.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
That's a great.
That's a great one right there.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
So hell, what a deal, man.
I know that's a great deal, Iknow.
So, yeah, it shouldn'thopefully not be that much money
.
But no.
I think if the market value wereto maintain that, you would
have the opportunity forcompanies that market themselves
as an even better battery toenter, you know, and then maybe

(09:36):
people going oh you know, I'mgoing to swap out my battery.
Of course, technically some ofwhat I paid there for should be,
or paid for there should be thework that was done on it.
You know the actual way.
But like let's say that thebattery itself was 4999, you

(09:57):
could have people that buy a$7999 battery and then install
themselves, you know, becauseit's better.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, exactly, exactly, you know, and and it
just it's overall, it's betterfor the consumer.
People use their devices longer, people will, I don't know.
I mean I think it's just a muchbetter world right, because I'm
looking at like just repaircosts for certain services that

(10:27):
Apple has right.
So if I damaged the back glassof my iPhone 13 right, I filmed
13 pro right, darn, I dropped it.
Guess how much.
That is how much $449.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Hell bro, I'm buying a new phone for that price.
I'm be honest, I don't knowwhat the 15th price for I
haven't looked yet but the 14ththey were like 700 bucks.
You can get them brand new,right.
And if you had to pay that muchto replace back glass, I'm

(11:10):
paying, I'm gonna, I'm gonnamake sure I have it.
I'm gonna spend a couplehundred more on a brand new
phone, right, yeah?

Speaker 1 (11:16):
exactly.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
But that's their goal , is it not, mm?
Hmm?

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Yep, exactly, you make the the cost so atrocious
that you might as well justreplace the phone, yeah, which
then becomes e-waste, right?
Yeah but I throw that one offinto the landfill and you know
problems yeah, but it's lessproduction output for them, yeah
exactly.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
They can focus more on investing in Spain money on
building new phones rather thanreplacement parts.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Exactly, exactly, or, or, though is say like hey,
we'll take it and they'llrefurbish it, and then they'll
sell it back to you.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Yeah, well, I think Dennis remembers this, but for
you guys, I, when I first got myiPhone, the four S, was the
first model I ever owned.
I only remember what that otherphone was called man, he's sick
, though, you guys know.
It was like one of those whereyou have it and you could flip

(12:16):
it over.
It was like half the size ofthis night and half the size,
but then you could slide it upand the screen would be up where
my thumb is and then you havethe physical keypad down there.
You remember that phone?
That was a dope phone, yeah, sothose things were durable too,
but anyway, you could.
So I have four S, right, and Ihad that first four S for just

(12:41):
under the warranty amount I'mtrying to remember, yeah, by end
of getting three, four S'swithin the cycle, because I had
it just under the warrantyamount and they used to do the
lock button different, and soit's literally called like some
type of electric contact nibbleis what it was called and it's

(13:04):
slid off of the contact and sothe phone wasn't registering the
contact of the lock button andso I took it to Stormry.
No, I did not.
I was hanging downtown Dallaswith this girl I was dating at
the time.
I stopped at this Apple storethat marketed itself as an Apple

(13:25):
store.
So also notification, gangDarien coming in with the love,
what's going on?
Well.
But yeah, they had it saidApple.
I don't remember the locationof it, but it was near Rappahoe,
you know.
It was on the way to Dallas,right, it's kind of like

(13:46):
Southern Richardson, yeah.
And I go in there and the guygoes oh, that's going on, okay,
and he was like oddly chillabout it.
He goes, I'll be right back.
Disappears comes back.
He goes here you go.
I didn't even have to signpaperwork.
I walk out with this phone,right, and some cards

(14:08):
transferred.
Whether it was a refurb tophone, it wasn't new.
I remember this one Cause I hadall kinds of issues with it.
At a certain point it justdidn't even turn on, if I
remember right, something likethat.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, and that it wasn't until I took it in cause.
I was like well, I'm not goingback there.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
It was out of my way anyway.
So I went to stone Brian Frisco, and they go this isn't even a
new phone, cause it had beenmarked refurbished.
But they never told me that.
They told me it was new at theother place.
So it's like you're having todo dances with that.

(14:48):
It's just a lot, man, to haveself-service parts.
You know you want to havesomething that's much more
effective with the self-serviceside of things and even more,
even a phone that you don't evenrequire that kind of stuff
Right, which, in my experienceas a still an 11 owner, it's

(15:10):
gotten a lot better.
You know it's gotten a lotbetter, but but still, I mean,
man, that was a wild story thatevery time we talk about
maintenance on iPhones, that'swhat I think of is just like
dude, so dumb.
But yeah, it's already set up.
It's been a while since I'vebeen on the phone Like dude, so
dumb.
But yeah, it's already expensive, it's already hectic, and then
you know you're not getting itnecessarily any easier for you,

(15:32):
you know.
Yeah.
But anyway.
So I find that interesting man,that will be a good one.
I'm glad that the USB-C thingis rolling out.
I don't have a ton of USB-Ccables they're all right in
front of me right now actuallybut it's something that has been
proven.
It's proven very effective formy Bluetooth keyboard and my

(15:55):
laptops and this dock that I useand, yeah, so I'm.
I'm definitely on board forApple to finally adopt the same.
You know what I mean.
So, but um, and I only got acouple of lightings, so we'll be
all right, but then, yes, withthis other removable battery

(16:15):
stuff, that was an interestingthing, you know.
It's interesting how theEuropean Union is the one that's
having to make these decisions,right.
Mm-hmm.
Why do you think they're theones taking the taking the draw
on it Um?

Speaker 1 (16:31):
I think it's.
I think it's a culture thing,you know, I think um, they're
more Honestly, I think some ofit comes from the way that,
geographically they are right.
The European Union is, you know, multiple countries, multiple

(16:55):
big countries, all workingtogether for different values
and goals and stuff like that.
But I think there is kind oflike a nice oneness to them that
I don't feel like we fully getin the United States you can
have.
I think the European Union isinteresting because you have

(17:17):
very different ideas but at thesame time you all are able to
come together and like makedifferent changes and all sorts
of other stuff like that Right,a little bit different than what
I feel like we do here.
I don't know why, but I thinkit's just because it's their
actual countries, rather than,you know, the United States is.

(17:40):
Yes, there's different states,but in some ways they all kind
of blend together after a littlebit right.
So well, one United.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Nation.
Yeah, exactly, I think, goahead.
Sorry, man, oh, no, no, no, no,go ahead.
Well, I think you're hitting ona really good thing is based on
what they cover.
They have to look at thegreater like, the greater
interest of a variety of people,right, and rather than being
like, well, my country wouldlike, but you can't do that.

(18:10):
You know what I mean Exactly.
You got everything from Polandto freaking Italy, you know
Exactly.
No, maybe not Poland.
Don't quote me on that, butanyway, I think, excuse me man,
yeah, I think this is a goodtopic.
I'm glad that we touched on it.
Poland is in the European Union, so I nailed that.

(18:34):
Per usual, with my geographicalcontext, I say we go ahead and
get into our main topic, thoughI'm very excited for people to
be a part of Microsoft Windows11 just rolled out.
Co-pilot man.
Oh man.
Cool.
Start playing the theme music.

(18:55):
Start playing Danger Zone, bro.
How is that one ready, man?
How is that one ready?
Yeah, we just got to startplaying a top gun theme, I think
.
Of course I don't want us to getbanned, so yeah, yeah, we got
to do that royalty free kind ofstuff, but anyway, this is
exciting because it is AIintegration into the most

(19:19):
popular operating system ondesktop in the world, right, and
thanks me for shouting outmyself on that, yeah, but yeah,
so we have that, and it'sexciting because of how it

(19:41):
integrates typical Microsoftideas.
They're wanting to make it soyou're more productive and more
easily productive, right.
Some of these things are thingsthat we have already seen with
other programs, but they'reintegrated onto your desktop now
.
Other things are new, andDenison and I were playing with
some of it before we came live,and we're really excited to talk

(20:02):
about it.
I think this will be a big gamechanger.
It's again I'm going to throwthis out there before we start
another interesting mark thatApple is not involved in, you
know.
Yeah.
I mean, I still got Siri givingme dumb questions and dumb
answers over here.

(20:23):
Man, it's just stupid stuff andlike that was the first thing
and everyone was so excitedabout Siri and now it's like bro
, siri's dumb.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
You know Siri's falling behind the competition
Now.
Granted, Siri has gotten betterthan it was, you know, years
ago, but it still has issues,but do you know what the most
common question I ask for Siriis what?

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Hey Siri, who won the Thursday night football game
tonight?

Speaker 2 (20:58):
The Packers were beaten by the Lions today.
The final score was 34 to 20.

Speaker 3 (21:03):
It's the most relevant thing.
I can consistently getinformation out of it from.
You know what I mean.
It's just fun stuff like that,nothing against it, I love
having fun.
I'm just saying it's not morecapable than stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
You know what I mean, yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
So, anyway, we're going to have a good discussion
on this.
I'm looking forward to it.
I say we go ahead and roll intoit, man.
While I have you here, let'sjump into the three best ways to

(22:00):
support this show.
Number one leave us a ratingreview wherever you're listening
, wherever you're watching.
There's your one right thereNew iPhone 15.
What a flex dude.
I just said one and he goes youmean like that, more like 15.
Am I right?
Leave us a rating reviewwherever you're listening,

(22:22):
wherever you're watching.
It will help us to know whatyou think of this podcast and it
will also help us to get infront of more potential
listeners and viewers, which isa huge gain for us, and we
really appreciate it.
Number two oh my goodness, he'sflexing bro.

(22:42):
It's a Rick Gates thing again.
There we go, all right, numbertwo.
Number two Thanks for followingus on YouTube.
If you aren't already doing so,jump on and subscribe.
We go live every single Thursdayand you get to interact with us

(23:04):
in real time.
Whatever it is we're talkingabout, we want to hear your
thoughts, we want to hear whatyou have going on and what you
have to say about the topicsthat we're discussing.
So jump, oh, almost flex, tooearly, but so jump in with us
and let us know your thoughts.
Number three oh, a USB-C cablefor them both.

(23:27):
Dang, that's a flex, and timelyas well.
So, number three, if you wantto support us monetarily, we
have some good, clean merchavailable at the link wherever
you're listening and whereveryou're watching.
Hey guys, god, dang it, thisGAH, dang it.

(23:47):
By the way, it is fall.
You know what you're going towant.
May not feel like if you're inthe Midwest right now.
I don't know about the South.
What do you guys do down there?

Speaker 1 (23:59):
No, it's not fall either.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
Yeah, it's not fall either 94 today but you know
what you're going to want soonYou're going to want some
beanies, you're going to wantsome hats, you're going to want
some long sleeves and hoodies.
We got them all.
We even have mugs to keep yourwarm drink warm.
We have phone cases to keepyour warm phone warm.
It was hard for me to say.

(24:24):
Anyway, we got all kinds ofoptions.
Wherever you're listening,wherever you're watching, please
check it out.
We appreciate the support.
But yeah, man.
So, with that said, let's divein the co-pilot.
So I'm going to read somethingthat I researched A set of

(24:44):
AI-powered features andexperiences that are designed to
help people be more productiveand creative.
Now, one thing I know as amarketing professional is saying
that is eight I poweredexperiences.
That's a bit of a marketingsell, but that's not to take
away from what the capabilitieswill be.
So, first of all, one of thethings is like voice and text

(25:08):
commands for controlling thedesktop experience.
We know what text commands are.
We know what voice commands aretoo, I think.
In my opinion, microsoft hasbeen advertising that for a long
time, but not reallyintegrating it.
Do you think that changes here,and what would that look like?

Speaker 1 (25:32):
I mean, I think this kind of puts this more into the
realm of what we kind of alreadyuse, like Siri and Google
Assistant in that realm, becauseyou can ask it questions really
quickly If you can make it towhere, I think you can also have

(25:55):
it to where it'll read it outto you, right?
If you add all of that together, it kind of becomes something
similar to that, right, but it'son your OS, right?
You can just ask it reallyquick questions or just say hey,
this I don't know this word doc, that I have right here, can
you summarize what's in here?
Or hey, can you help me do this?

(26:16):
Instead of actually having itsaccessibility features as well
as just sometimes it's justeasier to communicate or be able
to speak it out than it is toactually write it down.
So I think that's a huge help.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
I do too.
You know controlling thedesktop experience.
I think my question is thisright so, a simple example is
like you have, let's say, anAdobe product, right so being
able to pronounce that thealgorithm knows how, you know

(26:56):
what ADOBE sounds like and yousay, please open Adobe
Illustrator and it will do itright, yeah, but is there
anything more advanced that it'strying to say when it says
controlling the desktopexperience?

Speaker 1 (27:10):
I mean, hey, you could say like open up File
Explorer and go to this networkdrive.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Okay, yeah, that's a good example too, actually, but
I just want to preface this I'mnerding about this because I'm a
guy that your network drives,so I could be like, hey, you
know, go to blah drive with thisfolder, right?
No, yeah, it's on time, yeah,or?

Speaker 1 (27:39):
even I just now thought of this too.
This is kind of a cool one.
You can even open up CommandPrompt.
You can say, hey, open upCommand Prompt and type in you
know, for me, right, a lot oftimes with my job I'll say like
do a GP update, right, so it'slike a global policy update, and
they could just run throughthat, right, they can figure out

(28:02):
exactly what I'm saying andopen it up and then it'll run
that command and Command Prompt.
That'd be really cool, just byme talking up, just saying it.
So that's really neat.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
I agree, which I know we're going to dive into this
kind of one more.
It says AI powered features indefault Windows apps such as
photos and paint.
They will dive into analternative of this very soon.
But what do you think that kindof stuff would look like?

(28:37):
I'm going to grab my microwavedmeal real quick, but I have
some thoughts too.
But I want to hear what youhave to say, you know.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Honestly, I think that's just going to be really
cool ways that you can use that.
You can really use the.
I'm trying to think.
I think it can just really addto those little little deals
Because, yeah, it's paint, it'sphotos looks like the snipping

(29:10):
tool.
Who knows, maybe with paintMaybe you draw a little bit
better.
I think one of the things thatit actually has in here.
It says it enhances yourdrawing.
For AI and digital creation.
It may be able to help youcreate backgrounds, generate

(29:32):
backgrounds, which would bereally nice when you're trying
to paint in it.
It could also help I don't knowmaybe correct some of the lines,
especially if you're using likea mouse.
Sometimes they're not superperfect, but in photos I can
even see it as something thatcan help edit some of your
photos, because on our phones wehave tons of tools where we can

(29:55):
edit inside of there.
I can see this co-pilot beingable to do that in the photos
apps on your computer, which isreally cool without having to
buy expensive programs likeAdobe and all sorts of other
stuff you can build in,integrate it right then and
there, without having to reallyoutsource to these much more

(30:16):
higher expense photo editingthings, especially if it's
something that you're going todo like really small right.
If I just say, oh, I want toblur this out or something like
that, or I want to blur thebackground, or something quick,
simple, you can do that.
That's a really really I thinkthat would be a really really

(30:36):
great use of the tool and makeit a lot easier than something
that you would normally be ableto try to do.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Well, I think too and this is probably something
we'll see integrated in Apple aswell because they make it easy
to edit photos and stuff likethat, right?
Excuse me, guys, I'm sorry, butI mentioned the Photos app too,

(31:05):
because there's an AIintegrated way to enhance your
photos.
As someone who works with thattoo, that would be beneficial, I
think, for a lot of people, andto do it on your desktop, I'm
saying.
But also it would be coolcombining the ideas that were

(31:28):
accruing here.
Maybe there's a way youdownload photos on your laptop,
like a lot of people do, eventhough terabyte drives are
becoming more and more rarethese days.
But anyway, maybe you do thatand then you say, hey, terabyte
drive or two, sorry, multiterabyte drives.

(31:50):
It's why I meant it Isn't itrare, bro?
It's hard for me to find man.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
Are you talking about like a hard drive, like disk
drive?

Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, like yeah, yeah , yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
Okay, so disk drives are I don't know.
You can find a lot of reallycheap big disk drives out there.
I mean, I guess if you wanted asmall one, yeah, external ones,
yeah, I can see that those area little bit harder.
Sorry, I got a soft one andturned it there.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
No, no, it was worth you mentioning that.
So, anyway, a point is, maybeyou could say hey, all these
photos were from there.
Yes, please categorize themaccordingly, right?
Yeah, so things like that.
I think that would help people.
I like that.
So far, I do think we'redipping our toes in those small

(32:42):
things, but when you approachthe entire program, it's a huge
difference, right, when yourealize that this help is right
around the corner and you feellike your tech is working with
you.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
You know what I mean?
Yes, exactly.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
Okay, so it says the ability to generate text,
translate languages and writedifferent kinds of creative
content.
What's interesting about thisis this is where we kind of dip
our toes in the chat.
Gpt right, and Microsoft stillhas major ownership in open AI,
right, so would this not be themintegrating that platform

(33:24):
basically on the Microsoft?

Speaker 1 (33:26):
Of course.
Yeah, I think that's becausethey're using chat GPT for and
being, so it's really not allthat much of a stretch to see
them integrating that into theOS.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
No, I agree.
So that kind of stuff, I think,is pretty self-explanatory.
We've talked about it a lot onthis podcast.
But I also will say translatinglanguages is not a new feature.
You know what I mean.
Yeah, I've had Microsoft readan entire Word document to me

(34:10):
one time.
You know what I mean.
But then all you got to do ishighlight some text and right
click.
It should be like translate.
Yeah, yeah, I can do thatLiterally.
Right now it says translateselection to English.
This is great, so it's justmore effective.

(34:31):
We know how chat GPT works.
I don't want to waste too muchtime on that, right?
So the final test was amazing.
Thanks so much.
Those are some of the thingsthat we talked about.
For Microsoft Copilot InWindows.
There's such a small namingdifference, apparently, but

(34:54):
there is a contextual differencebetween Microsoft Copilot and
Microsoft 365 Copilot, right?
Mm-hmm, there is Now.
Here's the thing.
So Copilots included in allWindows 11.
The thing I forget is noteveryone pays for 365.
Mm-hmm.
You know that's true.
I don't know why you'd haveWindows without using Office and

(35:18):
Excel and all that kind ofstuff.
You know what I mean?
Mm-hmm, but what do I know?
I'm a nerd.
So, with that said, there's aversion of Copilot available to
enterprise customers as part ofthe 365 subscription, which
includes all the features ofCopilot and Windows, plus
additional features that aredesigned for business users,

(35:38):
like the ability and this is oneI actually really like to
analyze work email to provide asummary of the most pressing
tasks for an individual employeeright.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
Yeah, which is amazing.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
It is Now.
In my estimation, it's not justanalyzing your email, it's
looking at your Outlook calendar.
Yeah so, but still for it tosay you guys talked about this,
so, like at my job, we used aprogram called Esana and it's a

(36:16):
project managing platform.
Maybe some of you know what itis.
It's very effective.
We can collaborate with so manydifferent people and just make
sure projects are done on timeand managed all properly.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, but technically this wouldat least wink an eye toward

(36:36):
that type of a thing being builtin automatically through AI and
through Microsoft, mm-hmm.
So what are your thoughts onthis, bro?

Speaker 1 (36:49):
Yeah, no, I mean I think it's a great way to
utilize it and force it intothose.
Honestly, I mean it is forceful, but it's a good way to really
get people's hands on this tooland utilize it to the best of

(37:09):
its ability, because I feel likea lot of times, you know,
people always talk about, oh man, chat GBT, this, chat, gbt that
, but there are little examplesof ways to use it in their
everyday life, right, theireveryday stuff, and this,

(37:30):
especially this being enterprisestuff, really helps.
Or, you know, m365, co-pilotbeing enterprise chat, all of
these do a really good job offorcing it into most users'
day-to-day work and allowingthem to be able to really use AI

(37:55):
in such a cool way than theyhave done before and increase
productivity by you know whoknows how much.
Because you can.
Now, you know you can have itlike this small example of just
analyzing your what's going onin emails and give you tasks bam

(38:17):
, that's automatically.
It's essentially summarizingthat email, that long, nice
email that you have there,analyzing that and saying here's
what you really need to worryabout.
Right, here's what needs to getgoing.
And you can just jump rightinto it, because you know, of
course, we're all going to goback and read through it, but
sometimes when you're in a hurryright especially, I know, for

(38:40):
me, when I'm in a hurry I justneed the bullet points.
I just need to get you know,get exactly what I need out of
it, and then let's go, let's goon, let's keep moving, let's
keep doing stuff.
So I think this is such a coolfeature, and I think all the
other features that they have,because I know they have it
integrated into Word andthroughout the Office suite to

(39:04):
really enhance what you can do.
Right, you know it can generatecertain things, help you, help
you come up with ideas when itcomes to emails, as well as Word
when you're using Word anddoing different types of work
within Word can help you createor at least give you ideas and

(39:28):
create like Word documents thatyou're working on based on you
know what your source materialis.
I think these are all reallyincredible, incredibly powerful
features, especially if they'regoing to also integrate into
Teams as well, which is, youknow, a chat program that I'm
sure tons of you know, that tonsof businesses use.

(39:50):
Yeah, I think it's just areally cool way to get this into
people's hands and actuallygive them like tangible ways to
use it.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
I agree well you get you brought a good thing
specifically with the email too.
I'm sure everybody'sexperiences at some point where
you know you get an email sentto, let's say, five people and
you know this is like a teamproject and what you have is

(40:21):
this right, but the email islike that.
You know what I'm saying yeah,you're going to be able to just
automatically be able to justdetermine with the training of
the language analysis that ithas from chat GBT.
This is what John needs.
Oh dude, that's a game saver ora game changer.

(40:44):
It's a time saver and a brainsaver a little bit too.
You know.
You're like let's just hit it,you know.

Speaker 1 (40:51):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
So I love that.
That's a good analysis on that.
Another mentioned thing I havehere is the ability to act as
kind of an AI agent, performingits own market research across
multiple web sources in realtime, giving employees accurate
and up to the minute information.

(41:13):
So I know how.
Actually I don't.
I don't, and I'll explain why Idon't know how that could
benefit.
What would you see as possibleuses for that type of technology
?

Speaker 1 (41:31):
You know that's kind of hard, I would imagine
marketing trends.
Honestly, I think that would bea really good one, right?
If it's giving you, it can giveyou a baseline.
Of course, if you're in theindustry I'm sure you're always
up to date on that kind of stuff, but I think it maybe it can
see things in marketing trendsthat you normally wouldn't see

(41:56):
right Through.
It's, through the type ofanalysis that it does, it may be
able to enlighten you incertain things.
So maybe, if anything, thatcould just be a good like thing
to check out as like a semibaseline, right.

Speaker 3 (42:16):
Yeah, yeah, well and yes, and we all had our
Microsoft home or you know, thenews section that will pop up
completely have nowhere.
You accidentally scrolled overit for like 0.5 of a second and
it's like here's the top storiesfor the day, right?

(42:36):
But the thing is so.
I think some of you watchingthis know I'm in marketing and
social media and the thing aboutit is I know this through trial
and error Meta, the worst, butalso TikTok, reddit, twitter

(42:59):
every major social media sitehas protections to where bots,
even AI, cannot just go on thereand search, hey, what's
trending right now?
Have to be on the platform anddo the research yourself.
So for it to be something likethat, I don't, I could be wrong.

(43:22):
Maybe there's new agreementsbeing reached, but I don't think
it'll be effective, you know.
But if you were to say, let'stake a more simple example.
You know, be researching a newvehicle, perhaps you know you

(43:42):
could do market research forthat vehicle of good sales
locations, good prices andcomparable other cars that you
could compare it to, you know,again, I think that's a
simplistic example, but what doyou think?

Speaker 1 (44:02):
No, I think that's a good example of something that
they could use it for Okay cool.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
Well, I think that those are some interesting, you
know enhancements.
You know I was dogging on Appleearlier, but I you know so far
what we've read none of it isreally something that I'm like
oh hell, yeah right.
But if you work at a placewhere you get a lot of emails, I

(44:32):
think so like I used to work inthe news, right, how beneficial
that would have been for me.
Oh my God, dude, that wouldhave changed the day.
I would have known everythingthat's coming in that needs to
go in my newscast, and Iwouldn't have even had to check.
You know my email every fiveseconds.
You know what I mean, but itseems a little more situational,

(44:54):
based right now as to howimportant and effective this is.
What do you think I mean?
Are there any other things thatyou think this or that this is
changing and that you think isworth mentioning?

Speaker 1 (45:08):
You know it's hard to say.
I mean, I think that you know.
One of the things that I knowwe haven't touched on exactly
yet is the image generationright the fact that they've
integrated Dolly 3, which is oneof the newest image generating

(45:32):
models from open AI, into Bingas well as into the gosh darn
copilot, as well as into Worditself, which is pretty amazing.
So no more you know the superstock photos that you got from

(45:55):
Clipart right within Word.
Now you can create these reallyreally cool pictures directly
into Word using this copilotfeature, which is really amazing
.
I think that's a really coolthing that they're trying to
work on.
That they're working on, andit's also really neat to see it

(46:17):
in the browser as well, beingable to use that.
So I think Um.

Speaker 3 (46:24):
Clippy was the bro man.
That's not dis on Clippy toomuch bro.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
You know Clippy, Clippy was the bro.
Clippy was the bro man he was,he was doing what he could man.
He was out here, I know.

Speaker 3 (46:36):
Hey, I see you might be working on the letter right
now.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Yeah, you want a template Clippy, clippy, out
here.
Man, he's out here, but youknow, move over Clippy.
This is Clippy 2.0 copilot dude.
Is copilot bro, copilot outhere.

Speaker 3 (46:56):
He's got a mustache sitting in a rocking chair now
and he's exactly I remember backin my day and just sees copilot
go right over.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
So I think that's a really, really powerful tool
that I think I you know, I thinkit's going to gain a huge
amount of traction and usage.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
Yeah, yeah, I agree, man.
I will say some other examplesof how copilot can be used, just
to help make it more tangiblefor our listeners as well.
A student could use copilot tohelp them write a research paper
by generating ideas, findingsources and summarizing
information.
Now, look, I'm going to jump inthat one right off the bat.

(47:42):
I know that's a controversialone, but to me, I always have
looked at these things like howdo you learn them Right?
We have trainings that we doevery month at work, and one of
them right now is like eightminutes long, a very monotone

(48:06):
narration, but then at the endyou have to answer four to six
questions before it lets youmove on to the next thing of
training.
You can get them wrong as manytimes as you want, there's no
failing.
You just got to get it right,right.
And the thing about that is,even if you were someone who
didn't listen to a second ofthat training, you're still

(48:29):
walking away learning becauseyou had to get those questions
right.
You know what I mean.
And so if AI were to come in andto help somebody, a student,
write a research paper, givingthem ideas, finding them the
sources they need andsummarizing that information.
I mean, they're still learning,they're having to gather it and

(48:50):
put it together.
Yeah, thank you very much.
Thank you so much.
That's a lesson on the comments, if you hate me for that, but
that's my opinion.
There's, I mean, there'snuances to all of it, right, but
I think, like for the teacherto make sure that something was
still learned through thatprocess that's on them, but to

(49:11):
have assistance, writing and ofcourse, you know, maybe more
beneficial it would be forgraduate students, those type of
students, but still, I thinkthat's an effective thing, you
know.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
Yeah, I think so too.

Speaker 3 (49:23):
Yeah, number two a business person can use co-pilot
to help them prepare for apresentation by generating
slides, analyzing data andfinding relevant information
online.
Now that is maybe, if not themost tangible and good example

(49:45):
of how this could be a gamechanger.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
Yeah, exactly, I mean , that's a really, really big
one.
You know, I'm sure all of ushave been in a situation once
before where we need to jumpinto a presentation.
We have the fact that we needto kind of put it all together
and make it look nice and cleanand stuff like that, and so to

(50:08):
be able to have something thatwill do that for you is
incredible.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
It is, it is and yeah , I mean, you know, again, I
think that's a really good thing.
Again, I think I've talked moreabout my profession on this
episode than perhaps ever.
But you know, I find myself infront of people a lot.
I don't mind presenting things,but I hate slideshows, dude.

(50:39):
I hate them.
I don't like watching them, tobe honest.
But if I don't like watchingthem, I hate putting them
together.
And if you compile informationand then co-pilot could analyze
that information and then makeinto slides and slides for you
that fit a good presentation,that's actually pretty mind

(51:00):
blowing, dude.
That's a big one.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
Yeah, it is.
It's a huge one.
It makes it such a huge timesaver and probably attacks it at
a different, in a different waythan what you normally would.
I think that's really, reallybig.

Speaker 3 (51:20):
Yeah, yeah, I completely agree.
I like that one, okay.
So third example here Asoftware developer can use
co-pilot to help them write code, debug errors and test their
code.
Okay, nice, let's put it forthis way.
Chudgegpt can do that, right,yeah, we don't know if this is

(51:47):
going to do it to a furtherextent.
It could, of course.
I don't know, but it might not.
But the other thing is, toooftentimes when you're in a
position like that, you can't gooutside of your operating
system.
You can't just go on Google andbe like, hey, let me run this
by ChudgeGPT real quick.
You know what I mean, mm-hmm,and so I think that that's an

(52:11):
effective, an effective thing.
You know?
It's a more simplistic,straightforward example from the
others we've given.
Yeah, but I think it's stillgood.
I think I'm yeah, I'm on boardwith that.
So I think these were some goodexamples.
Do you have any more that youwant to touch on?
I know we're going to showpeople some dolly action too,
real quick, yeah, yeah, but didyou have anything else beside

(52:33):
that too?

Speaker 1 (52:34):
I can't think of any other examples.
I mean, I think those werereally great examples to kind of
really get people engaged aswell, as you know, help them
understand exactly the powerthis that this has, and it's
also kind of funny too.
This is again, you know, whatwe've talked about ever since we

(52:54):
started really covering thistopic of, like, different types
of AI's that are out there, thatare AI tools that are out there
, is that this is the tip of theiceberg, right?
This is literally probably theworst that it will be, and it
will get better and faster andsmarter.

Speaker 3 (53:20):
That's the truth Every time.
Dyson said it.
You know, something the nextfew weeks comes out that changes
it.
Mm, hmm.
So, yeah, I agree, man, I, youknow I want to say too,
generalization statements can betaken the wrong way so easily.
One thing I think about as faras me learning using maybe an AI

(53:48):
right to help learn is becauseI had a foundation of learning
on my own.
You know what I mean.
There's one part of it whereit's like you know good old
American values, it makes mevalue it more.
Right, it makes me value that Ihave this easier access to
learn something and it'stransformative for me.
But I do think that there's away to approach it where it's

(54:11):
like hey, you're learning stuffand you're learning it faster
than anyone ever has before.
You know, mm.
Hmm, because not reallytangible for you viewers on the
podcast fully, maybe, maybe fora little bit.
But my knowledge since Istarted, since chat GBT came out
, my knowledge on a plethora ofthings has exploded.

(54:34):
Man, it's insane, you know.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:39):
So, anyway, I just wanted to include that as well.
But, dude, let's show themthese dollars, dallay.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
Yeah, I will.
I will.
Let me get my screen sharedreally quickly here you guys can
check it out.
Pop it up here, go Boom, lookat that.
So this is just some of thestuff that we kind of been
playing around with One of theimages that we yeah, you have

(55:09):
that we created.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
I got pop out for again for one more second.
Okay, it's all good.
So yeah, this is one of theimages that we had it create.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
I, just as you can see, you get the nice little
prompt here, which is reallycool.
It even gives you the size thatit is, and then I can just grab
it.
Right, I can grab that contentcredentials, which is one of the
things that they talked about,which gives you a history, the
origin.
It can tell you exactly what itwas generated by.

(55:41):
That was one of the things thatMicrosoft and, honestly, a lot,
of, a lot of companies havebeen really trying to push,
since they've been pushing these, yeah, products is to help
people understand like thisimage is generated by an AI

(56:01):
rather than created by a company.
This image is generated by anAI rather than created by a like
a human or a person or whatever.
But, yeah, so this is.
This is my little astronaut,that we had an astronaut going
into a black hole, so he's thispoor man is in a get swallowed
up here.

(56:23):
But also, as you can see, on theside here we have a prompt that
we already did, which was gaveus a little bit more nightmarish
Photos, just as like a kind ofquick little deal here.
So this is one of the ones thatit generated.
It doesn't do really well withhands and a couple of other

(56:46):
things.
Right, it does its best.
Yeah, I will say that chat GPTdoes great with objects and
dolly it does the same thing.
It does great with objects, butwhen you try to do something
more with people, it's a littlestrange, but this was probably

(57:06):
one of the best ones that we had.
That.

Speaker 3 (57:09):
Well, yeah, but also fun fact, though, with the
prompt was to catch up podcastwith John Denison.
And spoiler alert, in caseyou're a new viewer, that's not
what we look like.
Yeah, no, not at all.
And there are other catch uppodcasts.
But what was interesting aboutit is it more or less and this

(57:30):
is not a knock on Microsoft atall, because this is Dolly and
it's one of the most advancedones out there really, yeah, it
is, but you know they tookpodcast.
Oh, this is what a podcastthumbnail typically looks like.
You said your names.
Here's two guys.
You know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (57:50):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
So it was.
It was it's actually reallysimplistic and what it decided
to come up with from thatperspective.

Speaker 1 (57:58):
Yeah, yeah, now I will say that.
One thing that's reallyinteresting, right, I just
pushed the same thing, I justchanged like punctuation a
little bit here, but I got justslightly different results.
One thing that's reallyinteresting, right, we got four.
This was our previous fourresults that we got before,

(58:18):
right, and then we got four more.
One thing is a thing that I'venoticed here is that one these
are like a middle aged men,which is kind of weird, but it's
the same.
Yeah, middle aged white men,right, which is strange.
Now I understand some of thelike, for instance, this right

(58:41):
here these guys, they're alittle concerning.

Speaker 3 (58:46):
They swap each other's facial features.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
I know exactly this man ate his glasses, or his
glasses are morphine into hisface.
But one of the things that'sreally interesting or I could
say that they're probablygetting some of their
inspiration from is Joe Rogan.
I'm sure that's true.
It's a good catch.
But these guys I can see thatand that may be one reason why

(59:12):
it's going more towards a whitedemographic, but I do find
that's kind of interesting.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
Well, if you click the bottom right, one real quick
, sorry.

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Yeah, this one right here.

Speaker 3 (59:23):
Yeah, and the only reason, you know it's not.
No, not that one.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
Sorry, this one.

Speaker 3 (59:30):
Yeah, yeah, sorry.
Yeah, I mean, you know that'snothing.
If you were to think of ageneric podcast background,
right?
Mm, hmm.
You would think that I would.
Yeah, you know for sure.
So that's what it was going for, for sure.

Speaker 1 (59:47):
Yeah, but you know, I mainly wanted to bring this up
just because I do find that, youknow, as it continues to
generate things, I think that is, of course, I could have been a
more descriptive with it, but Ido think that is something that
we will, you know, need tothink about as we continue to

(01:00:11):
move forward with our AItraining and stuff like that,
making sure that it's providingdiverse things and without
having to fully ask fordifferent things, right, or
whatever like that.
This was a prompt that we hadonce before.
I just wanted to kind of goback to show this, right.

(01:00:33):
This was actually one that wasreally interesting because it
was auto generated, right?
If you take out all the text,it's a surprise.
It's a surprise me, right.
And then it was just a robot.
You know in what was the let medo undo?
Here is robot holding anumbrella in the rain.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
And that's so.
I think people have used thiskind of stuff before.
I wanted to say because Ifooled around.
Do you remember when I wasdoing AI animation on TikTok?
Yeah, yeah, I made this videowhere it converted me and my two
bandmates into grant that autocharacters and like that.

(01:01:19):
You know GTA care, it was GTAcharacters comma, a different
sub specific thing.
I went in that design commas.
You know that type of thing.
That's how you have tocommunicate with these, for
whatever reason.
That is yeah, but with thatsaid, yes, this was a auto
generated, one that Dollyfavored, but it looks great,

(01:01:43):
dude, yeah, like it looks reallycool.

Speaker 1 (01:01:44):
It looks really cool and let's go ahead and generate
another one, but it's reallyneat to see, just like, what it
can do.

Speaker 3 (01:01:54):
Right Of this idea.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
So this was cool, yeah.
Mechanical sphere floating overa pink desert 1970s sci-fi
illustrated by Mobius.

Speaker 3 (01:02:05):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:06):
Let's do it, let's see what's going to, what
happens right here.
And for those of you who arewondering, this little counter
here, it's essentially like the,it's what they call boosts.
Yeah Right, so it's somethingto help.
You know, if you want to payfor stuff, you could, I think,
yes, get more of these, but ifyou run out of them, it just

(01:02:29):
takes longer for it to generatean image, right, and you start
off with a hundred of them,which is Not bad, not bad.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
Oh, unless this is your business, you know that
you're going to run through thatquick.
For the average person, that'splenty.
Yeah.
So Exactly.
But look at these man, it lookslike early Star Wars covers.

Speaker 1 (01:02:49):
Yeah, it does.
Look at that.
That's kind of interesting too,because you can kind of see
like this is clearly, you know,something that's generated, but
the way that it looks right,yeah, you know, there's like
kind of almost like an old filmhaze kind of go into it, which
is really really neat.

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
The shadow that's cast from the sphere on the
ground there.

Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
Yeah, exactly, exactly, yeah.
So yeah, that's pretty cool.
Let's go to this guy right here.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
If you've seen oblivion with Tom Cruise that
spaceship was this type ofdesign.
Yeah, exactly.
Design.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
So, yeah, that's really cool looking.
We even go here.
That's pretty crazy, mm.
Hmm, you know, although there'ssome weird artifacting, like
just for all of these, right.

Speaker 3 (01:03:42):
Yeah, I will say over .
Most I will.
Oh sorry, I didn't mean to cutyou off man.
No, no, go ahead.
No, no, I totally see whatyou're saying there.
I will say I kind of like thisone the most.

Speaker 1 (01:03:54):
I do too.
This one's really neat.

Speaker 3 (01:03:56):
Yeah, it's very cool.
Really really neat, let's see,I think that's what these type
of Got a little person there.
Sure enough, dude.
I feel like that's what thesetype of AI should be made for is
thinking outside the box, likenot trying to replicate anything
you already have.

Speaker 1 (01:04:15):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:04:17):
You know, exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:04:20):
So I think that's a yeah, I think it's a pretty,
pretty amazing kind of Featurethat you just have at your
fingertips to kind of playaround with and kind of use,
right, I can see this beinggreat for both business and
non-business applications, right, this would be even cool, if

(01:04:42):
you know.
If you're doing like an amateurYouTube channel channel and you
just need a really coolthumbnail, exactly right, boom,
you can generate it right off ofthe topic, off of your topic.

Speaker 3 (01:04:56):
Well, and with that, send us tell them about the
other thing.
Man, so it, you know,integrates directly and with
Microsoft's what's that programcalled?
You have it open on the tabthere.

Speaker 1 (01:05:06):
So there's clip.
Champ is one of the things, butit actually integrates with
Microsoft designer.

Speaker 3 (01:05:12):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:05:13):
That is what the thing is.
So we're actually going to I'mgoing to jump into that real
quick.
You have the base form of it,but you can import images into
it and then you can start to.
Oh gosh.

Speaker 3 (01:05:28):
Excuse me, sorry, hey , I can't articulate that one
man, I know.

Speaker 1 (01:05:34):
But you can use the designer to help you create
different types of Well, in thiscase, promotions, or whatever
like that, um uh, thumbnails oranything like that.
See, that's Right.
You've got like a little textwhere it's grabbing the image
and plopping it in here.
You can also have it generatedifferent images, you can add

(01:05:57):
different images, and it's usingAI Uh, it's an AI powered tool
to really help you, kind of like, Create something really cool
and really neat, like that's acool looking.
Right, that was really neat,that's really cool.
I like that.
Well, and to distance.
I think, that's a really coolthing.

Speaker 3 (01:06:18):
I like that.
You know, if anyone's familiarwith Canva out there, this is a
direct competitor with what cango do.
But you know, this would belike, uh, like a greeting card.
A greeting card, right, that'swhat this template looks like.
But it makes it easy.

(01:06:40):
If you were, uh, as Dennis hadmentioned like maybe doing a
thumbnail for a YouTube video,you just take this and you have
templates that you can.
Oh, wow, you took thebackground down.
Yeah, just like that Look atthat Super effective.

Speaker 1 (01:06:55):
Boom Nice, that's a clean cut too.

Speaker 3 (01:06:59):
It really is very well done, which you would hope
for, obviously, because itgenerated the image, but for it
to work with, uh, different sub,uh tech software's of its own,
you know, and uh, thateffectively it's impressive.
And then again, you know, let'ssay, yeah, youtube, make a

(01:07:20):
thumbnail out of this real quick, real easy.
You know, um, you did mentionyou, like you said businessmen,
but you know this, this kind ofstuff to me comes into play for
small business owners andindividuals.
You know what I mean.
That's where this stuff really,because you can make a
thumbnail so quick that not justthe image but again the actual

(01:07:45):
size for the thumbnail, um, andthen create and make it your own
, whatever you need it to do,you know.

Speaker 1 (01:07:54):
Yeah, exactly, um, I think that's just so.
It makes it so powerful, right?
And this is I mean tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (01:08:07):
Oh man the dentist.
And cancel out again.

Speaker 1 (01:08:09):
Oh, there we go, I think I always back yeah there
we go.
I lost before a second there,um, um, but uh, what I was going
to say is just like this isreally cool and like, to my
knowledge, it's like free, so um.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
I'm sure there's a paid version of it, but you
don't need you know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
Yeah, but I mean it's it.
You don't need you know,especially if this is what you
got, like yeah, anything Super,super crazy or whatever like
that.

Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
Well, actually, I guess to that point too, you
would say if you know you haveoffice 365 that you're already
paying for it has Dollyinstalled on it and then Dolly
quickly attaches to this.
I would think that's actuallyincluded.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
And you can uh install designeron your computer.

(01:09:06):
I just found that out.

Speaker 1 (01:09:08):
Oh, nice, even better .

Speaker 3 (01:09:10):
It does say try for free, which would imply there's
a paid version.
Oh no, no, it's, it's just free.
That's awesome, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:09:22):
Yeah, just like clip champ, which also kind of uses
some AI powered stuff to be ableto create, you know, going off
of different videos that youhave to create, as you can see,
templates or anything like thatinspired kind of videos in this

(01:09:42):
tool.
Right, see AI.
Yeah, create a video with AI.
That's pretty neat.
Yeah, auto compose a video.

Speaker 3 (01:09:51):
Are you doing it?
I want to see what that lookslike.
That'd be fun.
I'll upload some media, okay,okay.
We got here.
Do you have?

Speaker 1 (01:10:03):
any freaking out, there we go.

Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
Do you have any videos you would throw up on
there?
What do?

Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
you think let's see.
You know I got some.
I don't have videos, but I gotpictures.
Okay, I got pictures.
Let's see what we got here andpictures.
We're going to do a DC trip,right, I got all these cool
pictures.
Drag that in there.

Speaker 3 (01:10:24):
And I'm all new.

Speaker 1 (01:10:27):
Let's drag the whole DC trip in here, and probably,
oh Lord, that's what I expected.
Yeah, let's not do that.
But let's let's go withsomething like this Right Far
back, go like these right, dragthem up in there.

(01:10:47):
Probably also more than I wasexpecting, but hey, it's all
good.
Yeah, exactly, why not?
Okay, this is cool, looks likeit's uploading nice and quick
yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:11:01):
This would be cool.
I also have video on mycomputer too, that I could try
it, depending on what this turnsout like, just to compare, you
know.
Yeah, let's get her going.

Speaker 1 (01:11:21):
Cool, so let's do it.
Let's say get started Right,yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right,we'll go minimal, right, we'll
do Okay.
All right, some weird internetissues.
Weird internet issues lately,so I do apologize, but let's see
We'll go minimal.

(01:11:42):
Choose for me.
Oh, that's kind of neat.
There's a choose for me.
You know what I'm going to gochoose for me.
I'm going to let you know.
Let the AI take over, let it goahead and check it out and see
what's going on All right, allright, all right.

Speaker 3 (01:11:59):
It's reviewing all of my media.

Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
It's finishing up, finalizing everything.
Apparently, I don't have aMicrosoft account.

Speaker 3 (01:12:07):
It's telling me, so I will hold off for now.
All right, then, I do have one.
But it's not accepting itoutside of work right now.
Okay, excuse me, so it's justdoing this thing.

Speaker 1 (01:12:25):
I was doing this thing.
Oh it's okay, goodness, justfinished.
All right, that's cool.
All right.
So how?
How long do you want this videoto be?
Well, we're in landscape forour production right now.

Speaker 3 (01:12:36):
So let's do landscape , and then I just say less than
30.

Speaker 1 (01:12:39):
Less than 30.
Let's do it.
Cut it down, okay, we'll donext.
Oh wow, sure, We'll go rightahead.
Oh wow, sure, we'll go.
Relaxation for it.

Speaker 3 (01:12:48):
You change your font if you want.
That's cool.
Cool.
And then you just have to hitplayer or what you do.

Speaker 1 (01:12:55):
I think so.
I think it's already got it,otherwise you just export it,
right yeah, autocompose.

Speaker 2 (01:13:02):
Oh, dude, it's sick.
Looks dope, looks dope, looksdope, looks dope.

Speaker 3 (01:13:09):
Looks dope, looks dope, looks dope, looks dope,
looks dope, looks dope.
That's pretty dope it is.
It's kind of like you know howApple has it on board where you
can make a quick video of yourphotos and stuff like that.
Yeah, you're right, it was likereally clean, I liked it.

(01:13:33):
It makes you wonder and Iapologize, guys, for you.
You guys listen to watching it.
I don't have the access to dovideo right now, apparently, but
I do want to play with it andI'll get to that and we can
report back.

Speaker 1 (01:13:45):
But yeah, I want to play with this as well.

Speaker 3 (01:13:47):
Yeah, cause how simple it was for it to edit.
This makes you wonder what itwould look like throwing a video
in there.

Speaker 1 (01:13:52):
You know, I know Well , yeah, full, full video and see
what goes on, Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:13:57):
Take our podcast, for example.
Right, if you threw that inthere and then said make a 30
second video, what would it takefrom this?
That would basically turn intoa social media reel.
You know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:14:09):
Yeah, exactly, I'm going to share this.
I'm going to share this actualVideo that it just created.
I exported it so that way youcan actually see it.
It was a little Well different,but yeah, I mean, that would be
really amazing, right?
It makes it so much easier foryou to do so much more.

(01:14:32):
Yeah.
So my video should be sharednow, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:14:40):
I'm in with Google now.
Don't hate me.

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
Oh man, you got to watch out, Google will get.
You Don't like Google Get you.

Speaker 3 (01:14:52):
Okay, let's see here Great video with a, and I'm
going to drop.
See, I think I have a.

Speaker 1 (01:15:07):
Oh, John, do you got the video here?

Speaker 3 (01:15:10):
I can.
Yeah, I was just making sure Iwas looking at something viable
here, real fast.
Yeah.
Yes, I do have live Share stuff.
Yeah, okay, cool, let's goahead and Sure the screen.
There we go.

(01:15:32):
Okay, here we are, and I'mgoing to click on six views and
I can't see them right now, butall they're just coded, so I
hope that these work.
I don't know what they willlook like, but, all right, we'll
get them rolling here realquick.
See, they're all taking theirtime to upload.
It's not called any trip, it'scalled Ender.

(01:15:53):
Show Ender show.

Speaker 1 (01:15:56):
Look at that.

Speaker 3 (01:15:58):
Did not plan a flexing about my band today.
We had the.
We had the opportunity to openfor hinder Last year.
Pretty much, yeah, just over ayear ago, man, it's pretty,
pretty amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:16:10):
Yeah, it was it was definitely the best show that
I've ever had with my band, andthe crowd loved us.

Speaker 3 (01:16:18):
It was fun.
We played in the middle ofInman, kansas, which, if you
know, yeah, well, I'm not sure,I'm not sure, I'm not sure, I'm
not sure.
If you know, yeah, well,actually I'm not even Gonna say
that.
I know several people that liveup here that don't even know
where Inman is, but, um, butit's, it's kind of In the middle

(01:16:43):
of Kansas and there's nothingcrazy there, but they have a big
concert venue that they justopened, like two years ago three
maybe and it had a ton ofpeople in there.
Man, um, well, this is takingus time.
I may end up having to go backand drop some of this, but maybe
not.
Let's see what we got here.
I'm not really feeling.

Speaker 1 (01:17:09):
You're going to choose for me.

Speaker 3 (01:17:10):
Okay, I guess I did that.
So yeah, we'll.
We'll review when it comes back, but let's switch over to you,
man.
Yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 (01:17:20):
Check me out.
All right, let's go ahead andjust do this.
No, it is.

Speaker 3 (01:17:35):
Looking clean.
No man, I like it, this looksyeah it's not bad.
No no.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
And look at that.
It had a nice fade out you know, fade out into when it comes to
you know the sound, fade outinto the video itself, like
that's.
That's a pretty darn impressive.

Speaker 3 (01:18:09):
It is, it is.
I agree.
Um, yeah, no, I completelyagree.
It looks great from that sideof things.
I thought it was yeah Well puttogether and I'm I'd be
completely happy with it, to behonest, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
I would too.
I would too.

Speaker 3 (01:18:32):
I'm going to try something different, real quick.
Okay.
So some of these video files arereally hefty Um, and so I'm
going to just do, and I don'tknow that one Um here we go Okay
, I'm going to put a music videoin Um and see what it does.

(01:18:54):
That is something that is moretangible.
There we go.
Perfect, I'll put this one inhere.
All right, it should be.
Let me get the sharing up fory'all.
Boom, already uploaded.
This is much more tangible.
Let's take a look here.
So videos here.
Uh, our first music video weput out.

(01:19:15):
Okay.
Let me type in collateral musicvideo.
I'm more or less just.
I see what comes from this, youknow.
Yeah.
Um, so it doesn't really let meeasily select what the style
would be like.
Do I hit here?

(01:19:35):
Oh, I got it, I got it, let'sdo it, let's do it.
It's classic Sure Not.
Can't do both.
Uh, no, yeah, okay, how many ofthese do I have to hit?
Yeah, but it's reviewing mymedia right now, so this is yeah

(01:19:55):
, once it finishes.
Yep, exactly, this could take awhile.
I didn't think it would.
It's 50 megabyte file, but, um,regardless, it's interesting.
You know what I mean.
Um, I don't know what's goingto happen in the next couple of
minutes, but I'm going to juststart, you know, wrapping things

(01:20:16):
up here, if you're down for it,man.

Speaker 1 (01:20:17):
Yeah, man, let's do it Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:20:19):
Well, I think we had a good discussion on this.
There was a lot to um unpack,you know, and, and really the
fact of the matter, one of thethings that Dennis and I found
out is that it's not even reallybeing marketed that that hugely
.
You know, as what is in um,this rollout, and and maybe it's

(01:20:44):
because, on one hand, there'sso many possibilities they don't
even know how to explain it thebest.
On the other hand, they couldjust be.
You know well, on week one it'sthis, a week two it's that, and
then you know, by the timepeople catch on, they're like,
oh wow, my computer iscompletely different now you
know what I mean.
Mm, hmm.

(01:21:05):
Um, and so it just really isinteresting.
I think that, um, yeah, I thinkthat this is going to be a big
one, based off of even just thethings that we saw.
Now, you know, it's not so much, excuse me, not so much flash
or anything like that, but it isvery much like, um, well, this

(01:21:29):
would be effective during my job.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, so I'm I'm excited for it.
I think we had a gooddiscussion on this man.
Did you have anything else youwanted to add?

Speaker 1 (01:21:40):
No, I mean, uh, yeah, I think the biggest thing is,
just like you said, it's prettyamazing just to see that these
tools are here and skies thelimit, um, I think once this is
in people's hands, just like youwere saying, I think it'll be
pretty impressive.
I think we'll really start tosee the true effects of it.

(01:22:03):
I remember when they startedannouncing some of this stuff
back in March, because that'swhen Microsoft first announced
this and talked about theseintegrations, and so it's just
really cool to see it like cometo fruition, um, and really see
them like doubling down andreally pushing into this, and so
, um, it's only the sky, youknow, it's only going to get

(01:22:24):
better, it's only going to getway better, um, and I can, the
possibilities are kind ofendless, almost.

Speaker 3 (01:22:32):
I agree, I agree, I agree.
So let's take a look.
Here I have the results.
I just had to stop sharing myscreen apparently, oh, wow, okay
.
So let's uh, this is going tolook a little different.
Mm, hmm.
By winds to look at it from a uh, vertical perspective, because

(01:22:57):
it was shot in horizontal shot,edited in horizontal.
You will hear some backgroundmusic that added over the top.
This is not me, oh, glitching,sorry, guys Should download it.
That's my bad, let's get arolling.

(01:23:19):
Yeah, okay, okay.
Um, how'd you do yours?
I just wanted to download it.

Speaker 1 (01:23:30):
Uh, it looks like you're at the right spot.
You just got to wait for it tofinish up because you hit export
Right.
Ah, yeah, okay.
Yeah, so it'll eventuallyexport itself.
It just has to finish up.
It's probably still doing somestuff.
Yeah, might have to share it in.

Speaker 3 (01:23:47):
Yeah, yeah, I agree, yeah, well, that's, that's all
good, we might have to circleback, but anyway.
I think we had a greatdiscussion on this.
I appreciate you guys jumpingin with us in real time.
As always, thank you forjumping on the live stream.
This is the longer one longerones we've done for a while, and
I missed it, man.
It was fun.
Yeah, me too.
So I hope you guys enjoyed it.

(01:24:08):
I know it was more nuanced thansome of our, uh, recent
episodes, but sometimes you gotto do it.
This is, uh, it's going to besomething you're probably going
to interact with no guaranteedyou're going to interact with at
some point.
So I'm glad we talked about itand, uh, yeah, all, uh, if this
is worth sharing, I'll share onour social media.

(01:24:29):
Otherwise, we'll circle back toit next week.
But thank you guys, so much forlistening, thank you for
watching.
We'll catch up with you nextweek.
Yeah, yeah.
