Here is my Grok @bot use case 👇 Thanks @poteto for the credits to test it out 💚 I created two bots: Scripter Orc knows everything about my YouTube channel, how I make videos, my style, my views, etc. It's connected to my Notion and writes scripts for future videos. Chronically Online Orc does exactly what the name says: It watches new AI models, @shadcn updates, trending tech news, and basically anything I could potentially make a video about. Twice a day, it sends me a digested version of everything that happened on my Discord. Now this is so COOL! Chronically Online Orc pings Scripter Orc! Scripter picks the 3 trending stories that fit my channel and audience the best, and automatically writes a video script for each one. So I can wake up in Europe, see everything that happened overnight while the US was awake, and already have 3 potential videos scripted and ready to go. Pretty cool.

The battle for AI control is fundamentally about people who make things vs people who consume things. People who make things love AI and are embracing it fully, because they can envision a future where the tools give them massive leverage to build the things they want to build. People who consume things view AI as a threat that will take their ability to generate a steady income that allows them to continue the life that they’ve built for themselves, because they either a) don’t want to put in the effort to build their own thing b) they are too cowardly to build their own thing or c) they don’t think they are capable of doing their own thing. Politicians are weaponizing the second group through the fears around AI potentially wiping off humanity off the face of the planet. The next 2 years are going to be extremely hectic as this dynamic plays out while AI models continue to improve.

Google researcher @lauriewired warns the shift from C++ to Python in universities is creating programmers who don't understand how computers actually work: "When I was in college getting my CS degree, my year was one of the last years that was using C++ as the core language for teaching students. Actually they were switching over to Python of all languages." "One of the biggest issues that I have is that a lot of these higher level languages are really abstracting away what is happening under the hood. If you're not aware of how the computers work in general, then you're gonna have problems when it comes to debugging." "Starting with a language like C++ gives you the ability to do these really high level abstractions, but it also gives you the ability to customize your memory management and get really close to the underlying machine. Especially if you're trying to work in high performance computing, game development, or high frequency trading." "At C++ conferences, there's almost this fundamental anger response when it comes to mentioning something like C or C++. People start complaining about the complexity of it." @Google

Chris Camillo reveals how to become the “AI guy” and pitch your services to wealthy business owners "If I was just a regular person, I would spend six months becoming a top 1% person in AI. Just, just by self-learning." "Then I would go to where wealthy business owners hang out. I don't care if you're going to conferences like this one in Vegas right now, and go to the hotel bar. And literally just start walking up to old guys that are likely business owners or C-level execs, introduce yourself, and say" "'I am so-and-so. I just spent six months becoming hyper-proficient at being able to utilize bleeding-edge AI tools to solve problems with AI. And over the next three years, your business is going to have so many issues, and I'll be able to solve those issues for you for pennies on the dollar. I don't know how many people you have in your company that are hyper-proficient right now in the AI world, but I am. Can we talk?'"
