Cohort 12 - Day 1 - 6/9/2025

Full attendance now. This is great. Okay. All right, guys. So, as I said, first of all, welcome. Day one, cohort 12. I started doing these courses, gosh, probably in April or so, like the first week of April. Masamenos. And. And, you know, now here we are in Cohort 12. Had so many people that are just really excited about AI and I have yet to have one person ask for their money back. Not that I've offered a refund or anything, but what I mean is just everybody just comes out just loving it and being able to do so many wonderful things. And what's really inspiring for me is that I get to see, you know, I get to learn from a lot of really smart people. We've got a really strong group on here today, and watching you guys go from, like, don't really know to like, I can do anything is really, really fun. And that's what's going to happen. So we got three hours, three days in a row here, nine hours. It's going to go very, very fast. And if you need me to say something again, like, this is an open discussion, feel free to say, hey, John, tell me that again, or can you share your screen on that and show that piece one more time? Or hey, I'm stuck. This is an active, very interactive thing. It's not just you sitting here watching. I'm going to be asking you guys to share screens a lot. Make sure you know how to do that. Make sure you know where the zoom control buttons are so that you can make sure that happens really well. So what I want to do, guys, is I want to do a very quick, quick, quick intro from everybody. Everybody is allotted about 16 seconds each. I just want to hear, you know, introduce yourself where you're from. So name where you're from and then what you do for work. Right? So that. Let's just start with that. We're going to go around and do a couple more round robins that everybody shares a little bit here. But. But to kick this off, we'll do that, and then we'll. We'll just. We're going to dive right into our first AI activity, and then we'll kind of back up and. And do some more things. But I want to just kind of dive in. Dive in really fast here. So I'm going to just call your name out. I'm going to do it in the order that I see here up on the screen, and I'll do my best. If I don't see your camera, then I'll. I'll. I'll try to do that. Okay, Spencer, go for it.

Glad to be here. Spencer Bailey. I live up in Idaho, Bear Lake, if you guys know where that is. On the Idaho side. I run Bear Lake luxury rentals. You know, kind of come from a tech background. Now I'm in property management. Use technology to drive high end vacation rentals. That's kind of what we're here for, is to keep learning AI to implement in hospitality.

Very cool. I want everybody to answer one more question. Do you have any coding experience, Spencer?

Minorly enough to be dangerous.

All right, cool. All right, Cheyenne.

Can you guys hear me okay?

Yeah.

Hey, my name is Cheyenne. I'm from Delta. I'm one of Danny's favorite employees. I was in customer service for his company, but now I'm going over to train sales reps. So I'm going to be building like a sales reps for Portal. And then my coding experience goes back to like eighth grade in middle school when I build a website, but all I had to do is like add pictures and it was a terrible class. So when Danny signed me up I was a little nervous. But Thomas, who took it a couple weeks ago said it's not that bad. So I'm excited.

That's awesome. Well, good news is guys, I have zero coding experience and I'll talk about that in a bit. So if you're worried about that, don't worry. I just like to know who knows a little bit because we, we do go over some coding type stuff here and I just like to know. Brian, go ahead.

Brian Crawley. I'm from Utah, then moved around to like nine different states. Back in Utah. Now I own a mortgage company and no coding experience. That's why my employees call me Boomer.

Landon.

Yeah, my name is Landon. Originally from Boise, Idaho, currently in Houston, Texas. I just quit my job as a directorial director of institutional research for a community college and kind of just seeing if I can start my own thing soon. My coding, I do have some SQL background and very little Python.

What part of Houston it would be?

Pecan Grove.

Very cool. So I'm from Sugar Land. I grew up there. Cool.

Just our neighbor down the road here.

Yeah, that's awesome. Texas. Houston's my home. That's my hometown. I'm in Utah now. But anyway, Rob, go for it.

Hey everybody.

I'm Rob Duffin in Lehigh, Utah and I own a home water filtration business and I have no coding experience.

Awesome. Rob and I have done some fun stuff back in the, in the web three world. That wild west that who knows what's going on now? I mean, I know what's going on with it, but, like, it's. It's not like it was five years.

Different, just different time.

Yeah. Anyway. All right, Dave.

Name's Dave V. From Southern California.

No coding experience.

I could make a nasty Google sheet, though.

I love that. In. In short, I. I help people who.

Pay a ton in taxes.

Basically sell tax coupons $0.70 on the.

Dollar with clean energy projects.

Clean energy, okay. Clean energy tax. That's really cool. And that's. I'm glad. I'm glad I know you. We'll sit, we'll talk more about that. Tim, go ahead.

Hey, good morning, everybody. I'm Tim Hargis. I live in Scottsdale, Arizona. Background's kind of in tech startups now. I do a little bit of consulting. My partner and I are also in the process of acquiring kind of more offline, you know, kind of pedestrian businesses. So excited to learn. I have very little coding experience and a little bit of HTML like css, but certainly couldn't build a full site end to end. My assistant who works for me is joining today as well. He's Nuan from Finland. So, yeah, excited to meet everybody. Look forward to learning a lot from you, John. Thanks.

Yeah, absolutely. By the end of today, you'll be able to build a full website from scratch. Nuan, go for it. Hi, guys. I'm Nuan. I'm from Finland, but I'm currently living in Sri Lanka for the vacation. So as you told Tim, I'm working with Tim, so I have a little bit coding experience because I'm coming from a tech background. Yeah, that's it. I love it. Thank you so much. Nuan in Sri Lanka, currently from Finland. Two places I've never been. That's awesome. Very cool. Glad to have you here. What time is it for you, Nuan? It's actually night, like 8:41. Okay, so you're doing the night. The night session here? At least it's not too late. Okay, that's good. I'm glad we're going early here for you. All right, Austin, go for it.

Hey, I am from Ogden, Utah, and I live in Utah County. I do all the technology for a franchise called hello Sugar. So we do wax, sugar, laser. So if anyone ever needs a Brazilian, we have some in Sugarland. So. But yeah, just looking to. We had our COO take this class if you, I don't know, a month ago, and he loved it. So just taking it to get more update on it.

How many people go into hello sugar and looking for like crumble cookies type stuff.

Oh.

All the time doing franchise conferences. We have little kids coming up trying to get candy and instead they go away with free bikini cards.

So that's awesome. I love it. All right, cool. Brandon. Hey, guys. Brandon Cummings. I own a company called Group Project. We are performance marketers, specialize in video, no experience in coding and excited to learn. Very cool. Thank you, Brandon. Mark.

All right.

Hey, Mark Savant here. I live in South Florida, but I'm actually moving to Tampa Bay later this month. So it's a crazy, crazy time for me. I own a marketing agency that specifically focuses on YouTube for lead generation and I don't have any coding experience, but I do a lot with zapier and web hooks and that sort of thing.

Very cool. I love that. We all need to get Mark's, you know, nice microphone that he's got there. He's coming through nice and smooth. Thanks, Mark. Danny. Go for it.

Cleave.

I'm in western Utah and working with Cheyenne and Dave. We do the green energy stuff, tax, equity, savings. So I do have. I have a pretty extensive coding experience, but it's old, so I haven't done it since 2010 maybe. Okay, so a little bit of code rot happening. I love it. What's that? A little bit of code rot happening. Yeah. When you don't update for sure, that's what happens. Your code rots and it just stops working. All right. Yeah, because everything else updates and you. You don't. All right. And then lastly, Dave, last but not least.

There's too many. Dave's on the call already.

I know.

I've changed my. I go by Stuff because of my last name, so.

And stuff. Stuff it is.

Stuff it is. I actually have a couple of things going on. I work with Brian at his mortgage broker, so I'm a mortgage loan officer as well. And we're working together on trying to automate a lot of the mundane tasks and everything. So this class seems very appropriate. And then I come from a 25 year of business to business software sales. So think Global 2000, Fortune 500 enterprise stuff. I've sold to every logo you can imagine and every kind of technology. I got my start back in the day in the 3W World and Macromedia, now Adobe, selling all of the web technologies. I've done coding, but it's like, Danny, it's old, it's decrepit and everything, but I play a lot with my own home automation, home services, hosting Dockers and running my own, you know AI agents and playing with N8N. So I'm primed and ready to go for this to see what we can do. I've actually been using ChatGPT to build out a website. Let me scrap that and do this instead. So.

Well, I love it. I love it. That's great. That's exciting. You're going to have a lot of fun with this class stuff. I was going to say Dave, but quickly corrected myself. No, that's awesome, guys. Thank you all. So, a little bit about me for those of you who don't know me. I know a couple of you. I actually love that there's a lot of people on here that I, I don't, I don't know. Well, Brian, I know and, and Rob and I go, go way back. I dated Rob's sister back in college, although I didn't know Rob at that time. And that was a long time ago. It was 20 years ago. But anyway, so my name's John Cheney. I, I live in West Mountain, Utah, which is just, I'm like staring out my window here. I can see the Y. I'm on the south side of Utah Lake, basically. Right. So pace and exit, head west 7, 8 minutes up to the West Mountain ranches. Have a little five acre farm out here and I, you know, I have a tractor, you know, but I'm not really a farmer. I just kind of pretend and mostly just pull weeds and anyway, I've got, I got four kids and I, I started a company back in 2016. I've always been an entrepreneur, always been in sales. So you know, I think stuff said he's a, he's a sales guy as well. B2B sales. I've been, I've been a sales guy forever, but I started a company back in 2016 called Seek. Raised $13 million for that, took it all the way up to over $100 million valuation. Ended up exiting that not at $100 million. I went like this, but sold it on the way down and not all the way down. So everybody, it was all right, but really fun. I'll talk about that some more. But part of what that brings, having been in the real world and done, you know, done business without AI and now being able to do it with AI, that's what really like has my, my mind just like exploding. Like I'm, I'm, I raised $13 million, guys, because I didn't know how to code and I wanted to create a software product that was really complex. It was in the augmented reality space and you Know, started out actually kind of in the Pokemon Go realm. Started out as a B2B 2C app that was kind of fun going around location based, hunting for treasure seek. Right? You go seek and you will find, right, you go find cool stuff. And some of you may have seen that we got up to about a million users and, and then about two years in Pokemon Go kind of died down and so we pivoted over to a B2B SaaS company where we provided 3D and augmented reality services to businesses and hosting kind of like content management system, a CMS basically for, you know, if you wanted to see your table in, in an augmented reality like with Ikea or with Overstock or you wanted to see what shoes look like on, you know, Snapchat was a client of ours. You know, we had all of kinds, kinds of really amazing technology. So built that up and I could today. So we spent millions and millions and millions of dollars. Most of my money obviously went to software developers that we raised. And today I could rebuild that entire software suites. Now there's more, there's more than just software in a company. We'll talk about that. But the entire software suite, I could rebuild the whole thing probably in about two weeks by myself and I would spend less than $1,000 doing it. Right. And so we're in a new world, guys, like millions to a thousand. It's, it's crazy. We're at a 99.9% discount now. And so what does that mean for everybody, right? And again, I'm not a developer even like I know what I'm doing right. And that's kind of one of the advantages I have too is I've been a tech CEO and spent eight years sitting in architect meetings and software meetings and hey, this isn't working. And why can't we scale here? Oh, we got to make a decision to rebuild thing because this database wasn't built right and our structure is wrong and we got to redo this. And so I kind of understand how everything fits together really well, right. I'm, I'm dangerous on that, you know, on the, on the conceptual kind of architecture side of coding. But if, if you said, hey John, I'll give you $1,000 right now if you write one line of code correctly, I would fail at that task. I just don't know how to do it. But I, when I look at it, I kind of know what's happening. So anyway, guys, building a business, you know, a lot of people sign up for this course and you're like, yeah, let's do. Let's learn some vibe coding and things like that. And we will be doing a lot of vibe coding. I think that's great. But there's a lot more to building a business than just that. You have to build strategy, you have to come up with ideas, you gotta, you gotta do market research. You have to build sales plans and marketing plans, and you have to be able to do images and videos and social and all of these different things. There's so many things that build a business and obviously the product and the QA and all those things. Right. And so we're going to be using that. Even if you're not wanting to start a new business today, that's fine. You can use all of these skills that are built around starting a business towards whatever you want. Right. And so you'll all build something new and fun. And this is going to be a really fun class. To kick this off, guys, we are going to. Oh, let me just do a quick. We'll just have you raise your. Quick that. We're going to test the little. Raise your hand thing if you know where that is. The little react button on zoom. Right. Put your hand up. You know, do that. If you. Yeah, so I want you to do that. If you have signed up for a paid version of Chat GPT I'm seeing. And maybe I should ask this the other way. Who has not. Does anybody not. Okay, you'll need a chat. You'll need a paid version of Chat GPT for the class today. You'll also need a paid version of replit, which were in the, in the documents that went out. Replit's going to be awesome. We won't get to Replit yet. We're going to start actually today with Grok and Grok, you can have a free version or you can have a paid version. Grok is a really fun tool and, and you know, ChatGPT can do what we're going to do in this first exercise. But, but I like to use Grok. I like to. I like to bounce around between different platforms because it's nice to kind of understand, you know, why some are better than others. Right. And we're going to dive in. So I'm gonna go and share my screen and I'm gonna, I'm gonna. You don't need to do anything right now. Just watch. So here I am@x.com, jump right into Grok. You can also go to Super Grok, Grok.com or whatever it is. And what we're going to do to start here, guys, is we're all going to build something really cool. So we're going to use a front end language and we'll talk a little bit about coding later today. Very basic stuff. We're going to use a front end language, which means it's only a visual language. It doesn't have a database, it's not storing passwords and all those things and doing any APIs. It's just visual. And we're going to build everything on the front end, right, so that it all renders right here. And we use a cool language called P5JS, which is just a variant of JavaScript. And it's kind of a, it's kind of an old school style language, right? Like it, it looks more like, I don't know, maybe a little more advanced than Atari, but not much more than like Nintendo almost in terms of the graphic quality. So you're not going to be building, you know, Call of Duty today. Right? But here's what we're going to do. So we're going to say please. And I use please because I just do that to humans. And I kind of talk to AIs like I do humans, so they'll make fun of me if I'm kind to my AI. And you know what they're probably going to remember. So it's worth it, I guess. All right, please, please create a mind blowing visualization with P5JS code and show me where I can. Okay, so I just ask it to create. And I didn't really give it many instructions. I just kind of said, hey, build something cool for me. All right, so just some sort of visualization. It might be like a Windows 95 screensaver or something. Maybe even Windows 2000 if we're lucky. Let's see, let's see what this looks like here. Okay, so what it did here is it gave me a bunch of code. And you can see here, whenever you ask it to do code, there's this little copy button, right? And wherever I am, even if I scroll down, that little copy button stays right there. So that's how you're going to want to copy instead of having to like select all this. That's really nice. Click the copy button, Boom, it's copied. Okay. Then you come down and it tells me where I can do it. Hey, I can go to this editor.p5js.org so I just click here and I'm going to delete everything that's here. And okay, first of all, control or command A is select all copy C V is paste. That's all you got to know. You'll be doing that a lot today. I've had people take the class that really don't know that. Okay, so it made a cool visualization. Well, that's kind of crazy. Like, it's changing all the, like all the connections as they go around. Okay. Oh, and when I put my mouse here. Oh, you know what? It's. When I click, when I click, it all converges on my mouse. How cool that is, right? Pretty neat, right? So that's neat. But I would call this a bad prompt, right? And the reason why it's a bad prompt is because I didn't really give it much context and I didn't really tell it what I wanted it to do. I just kind of said do a thing, right? And then AI if you were all to copy this exact same prompt and go into Grok and then ask it to do the same thing, we would all get different responses, right? AI just kind of makes assumptions, right? We'll talk about that in a little bit. So let's try this a little bit better now. So let's say, okay, now let's use P5JS to create a. An interactive 3D model of the solar system.

Use.

Vibrant neon colors. Make sure the solar system spaced correctly. Act the, the planets move properly and yeah, yeah, make sure that the animations. Here, I want to get my, my grammar proper and make sure that the animations are fast enough you can see them. All right, all right. So now I've just given it a little bit more. It's a little bit better prompt. But now I kind of am starting to create something cool that's real. And one of the cool things is, you know, if you were a developer, if I, If I were hiring a developer right now, I would, I would tell them that, right? And then the developer would go off and say, okay, I need to figure out, you know, okay, how many planets are they? What are they called? What. What are their, you know, how long does it take for them to get around the sun and have. They'd have to go do a bunch of research to figure out how the solar system works, right? If they don't know it off the top of their head, but you know, it knows it does all that research for you. That's one of the beautiful things about AI is it can just jump right in and do that. Really, really cool. So, so now I'm going to copy this and come over here. It knows that I want to do it. In this P5JS editor because I already asked it to do it. Now when it first loaded, it didn't really show up correctly. I don't like. I don't like what it did. I think it's bad. So I'm going to say this is ugly. Try again. Make sure the animations work. Okay, so now what I'm going to start doing is just talking to it, right? And I don't. I. Can I. Again, I'm not doing anything technical here. I'm being very. I'm being very specifically bad with my language, I guess, right? Or just very casual with my language is probably a better way to say it. I'm just saying I don't like it. Try again. Like this is. This is cool. Make sure the animations work. Okay, let's make it cooler. It did make it 3D. So that's good. It did that. Correct. Now it's possible that these animations are actually doing something. Yeah, I don't see. I don't see the moving at all. In fact, I'm pretty disappointed with how well it's doing this. So let's try the second one here. Make sure it got it right. It should work. Copy. Paste. Whoops. Play. All right, something's happening here. It's not working. So I look at the console here and so what I'm going to do is I'm going to copy all of this. I'm just going to copy all of it. Copy. I'm coming here and I'm just going to paste that error and it will just fix it. Okay, so this is exactly kind of what I wanted to happen. I wanted it to do. Do it. Okay. And then I wanted to have an error. Now we show it. And then this should work. This last version should work here. So guys, I want you to go ahead and open up Grok and I want you to basically use this same prompt. Now. You can. You don't have to do a visualization of the solar system. Okay, what I want you to do is. Yeah, so use P5 here. You know what, I'm actually going to give you this copy right here. So I'm going to do this a lot today in the chat and yeah, Mark, I saw your thing. You're right. Sam Altman doesn't want people to say please. But I'm just dropping this. Please create a mind blowing visualization with P5JS code and show me where I can deploy it. That's your thing. Now instead of saying mind blowing visualization, say whatever you want. Create PAC man, create the old snake that was on the Nokia phones. Create an asteroids thing. Create a visualization of the world's population over time. Create whatever the heck you're thinking of. Right. Create a boating game for Bear Lake where you can use the arrows to go around the lake with a boat. It'll do all of that stuff. You can make all of that work. So I want you to go ahead and build something and I'm gonna have you guys share this. Okay, let's see here.

John, why. Why Grok in this case versus Chat?

You can use either one.

Well, why. Why did you chose. I'm wondering why did you choose Grock here? Yeah, I bounced back and forth as well.

Yeah, I chose Grok for this specific one because I just like, I like. I like the ability that Grok has just in a little bit better way. And, and it doesn't apply as much to this specifically, but I like the way that it is able to pull from X, from Twitter. Right. From tweets. I. I want it to be able to pull ideas and things that it can see in there. And that's. That's really the primary reason why. There's a couple other reasons, but. But that's the primary one in this case. So I'm still getting another error. So I just have to go through this process and keep pasting a couple errors until I get it working. But while I'm working in this guy, you do yours and get something running, and then we're going to have. I'm going to call on you guys to. To share your screen. There we go. All right, I'm going to change mine from a 3D to a 2D. And as soon as you have one ready, guys, speak up. Whoever. Whoever gets one ready first. Maybe you already have. You've been going along with me. Speak up. We'll have you share your screen. We want to see what you got, everyone. Okay, let's see what you got.

Go.

Stop. Share. Go ahead and share your screen.

Okay, so on this one, it came.

Out as circles, and I asked it.

To replace the circles with triangles.

Yep. And to make the colors a little brighter. Is. Is there any interaction? Like, if you click, does it do anything? There's not. Got it. So maybe try adding that. Maybe just say, hey, you know, do that. And. And this is awesome. Right. You know, Brandon's also doing another thing. Instead of. Instead of going over to the P5JS editor, he's doing it right inside of Grok, which has a preview functionality ChatGPT does as well. So you can do that. Okay, so it's redoing his thing here. Wait for it. There we go. All right, now you should be able to click, and it should be interactive. Oh, yeah. There you go. They kind of converge on the mouse. Cool. So that's cool. Awesome. Nice job. All right, anybody else be able to have something running yet? It's okay if you don't.

I got 12 errors, but nice.

Just copy that whole thing and drop it in. I love that. Okay, Get my solar system looking good here. This is starting to look pretty good.

Yeah, I too, have a syntax error. Unexpected token.

Yep, Just copy that. Paste it into the error or. Sorry. Yeah, into the thing to say, I got this error or whatever. Just paste it and it'll know what's going on. It understands what you mean when you just give it an error because it understands the context of the conversation. All right, anybody else have something working?

I think I just did something.

Let's see it, Dave. So I just asked it to create.

A fountain spraying water, and it did that.

There you go. Yeah. Again, this isn't supposed to be, like, amazing graphics or anything like that. It's supposed to be like, okay, hey, I'm going to create some code and it's going to do something and then iterate on it. Right. So maybe build something, maybe make it interactive. Right. Say, hey, if I click, then it shoots a huge water spout out, or it changes colors every time I click, or whatever. Right. Great. Create some interactivity with it. Anybody else have something to show?

I've got something.

It's pretty bad, but I like pretty bad stuff. Let's see it.

I told it to create a visualization of all the guitar models that have ever been built.

Nice.

And obviously I did a terrible job. So I must be doing something on here from a prompt standpoint or. Unless I didn't copy all the.

Well, no, just like you did. And. And the thing is, it's showing. You can see some of the. The information it has. Right. It's got Stratigra Electric 1954. Right. And. But. But what. What you could do is you could say, hey, all of the guitars look the same. I need you to apply more, you know, customization to them so they look different and they maybe, like, have them all lined up so it shows the year. Just talk to it, right? How it would, you know, how you could get it to. To be a little bit more visually pleasing. I don't have every guitar ever made, but I do have. I do have four sitting back there behind Me. All right. So do you play the guitar, Tim?

I do. I have three guitars in my wall right now.

That's awesome.

Unfortunately. Unfortunately didn't pick any of the ones that I have for sure.

All right. Yeah. They need to look realistic. I don't even know. I. I don't even know if you're going to get much past that. But we'll see. We'll see what happens. I'm. I'm excited to see how it. How it does this. Yeah. Has limitations here. Says Since P5JS has limitations for hyper realistic renderings. It can't quite do that but. Oh, I wonder. Oh yeah, it looks like it's doing. Make sure it finished. Did it finish the code all the way? Yeah, it's still writing code. Yeah, you always want to make. It actually types it out almost like a super fast human. But it does have to actually write all the code now copy it and select all and just replaced it. Scroll back up to the top. It looks like you got an error. Yeah. So what it did here is just so you understand, look at the image path on line 10. Each one has, you know, all these different things and it kind of organized it well. But it gave an example.com vendor stratocaster PNG replace with real URL. So it wants you to go in and grab images and replace them for you. So you could, you could keep going. Hey, I don't want to find images. I want you to actually do it. But. But anyway, that's cool. I think that's enough. But that's. You can start to see though, you're building code really fast and something and it had a couple errors because it couldn't find those images. But that's fine. All right, thanks, Tim. What else? What else we got here, guys? I got one. Okay.

Spencer. Yeah, I got one too.

Go for it.

Okay, I'll share quick. All right. So I had it show me an automation of just like a sales funnel for luxury short term rental guest journey. And so kind of shows it discovering their browsing. You look stay it jumps through all those.

Nice. That's cool. Yeah, Very simple, very straightforward. I love it. Super easy. Very cool. Okay, who's the other person that said they were going to go stuff?

I have one.

Okay. Yeah, go for it stuff.

Let me find the right screen. I just asked it to create a simulation where it follows the mouse and the particles try to chase the mouse.

Oh yeah.

And then if my mouse collides, have it flash.

Oh, nice. That's cool.

Before everything was all of the particles ended up being together, so it just looked like one. So I told them to keep it apart. Keep them apart, and if they ever collide, bounce off each other. But they're not colliding because they have a barrier.

Oh, yeah, that's true. Can you. Yeah, you can't get them to run into each other. Yeah, I need to race for life.

Say race for life or something like that.

Yeah, that's pretty cool. I love that. So you know what's cool, guys, is you could take this. You could take this little P5Js thing. P5Js is a very, very lightweight language. And so you could drop it into a website and have it be kind of a background of something that's interactive, right. With text over it or whatever, whatever you wanted to do. You could drop this into a website that we're going to build later. Brian, did you have one to show. Oh, you're muted, by the way. Can't hear you. All right, what do you got here? Tell us what we're looking at. Hey, Brian, you're breaking up. I don't know if that's just me, Everybody else here.

He's breaking up.

Yeah, Brian, so we can't hear you clearly. We can see your screen, but it's. Your audio's bad.

Turn off your camera, Brian. See if that helps your bandwidth.

Yeah, that might help.

Is that any better?

A little bit. We heard you say. Or here's the question.

I got a little excited and tried to have it create a highlight reel of Michael Jordan's career with his stats and different things. That produced 12 errors. That's not going to work. So then I told it to create an ocean scene with all of the animals in the ocean, and it produced this. And then I did a follow up prompt and said to have them eating each other. And then it just did this again, I think so.

Those are all the. It looks cool. It's like a. It's like a low poly aquarium or something. That's cool. I love it. I love it. All right, anybody else want to share what they've built? Something cool?

Yeah, I'll share real quick.

Let's.

Let's see it. I can do this. Yeah, we go Landon and we'll do Austin next.

Right? Everyone see that?

Yeah.

So I asked it to make a NBA Jam scoreboard for the Chicago Bulls versus Utah Jazz. The first one looked like. It almost looked like it was made from like Ms. Paint or something. So I asked it to look like Madison Square Gardening. And it's interactive so you can you can give the score to the Bold.

Or B or J. Right?

Yeah.

I'm going to get some more J's up in here.

There we go. Just keep it going. Keep it. Yeah, that's pretty cool. And you could. You could, like, broadcast this to, like, a projector or something if you're like, you just built a scoreboard system. Right? That's pretty cool.

Yeah.

Now, obviously, you could add more things. You could say, all right, let's add some valves, let's add some player info. And just by continuing to ask prompts, and you could make it really, really complex. Right now, it's probably, you know, 100 lines of code. You get it up to 800 lines of code and then pull a data source in that does that. And you could just keep working at it, and all of a sudden you've rebuilt an entire, you know, arena system. That's pretty cool. I love. Thanks. Thanks for sharing, Austin. Go for it, Brandon. I might clip that and use that on a LinkedIn post. I think that was a cool. A cool example. Yeah.

So I didn't know the, like, how good it would actually make it, so I thought it would look different. But this is stitch surfing a wave.

Oh, nice.

You can click in change where. Where he's actually going to sit 10 iterations of it, which is pretty cool.

And it made. Yeah. And it used even a 3D mesh kind of. Which is pretty neat. Yeah, that's. That's pretty cool.

I love that.

All right, anybody else we miss? Anybody that wants to share?

Yeah, I'll share this.

All right.

Yeah, go ahead.

Just jump in, Jump in.

See my. My Grox screen here? But am I sharing the right screen?

Yeah, yeah, we could see it.

So basically, it's a funnel awareness, interest, decision, action. And I've been kind of tweaking it to add, like, where, you know, where different actions will be implemented in this. The stages. Then I said, hey, let's add a. A feature.

So if I.

If I click on one of the stages of the funnel, it'll give me advice how to improve conversions in the funnel. I don't know what all these green.

Snowballs are, but things dropping into the funnel, I guess. Yeah.

So anyway, kind of interesting.

That's pretty cool.

When I copy and paste this into the web editor, it doesn't work, but when I preview it here in Gro, it works there.

All right. Yeah, I love it. Okay. Yeah, it's because it had a different type of HTML, but that's okay. That's great. I love it. What else Rob, was that next?

Yeah, I'll show mine. I share my screen here to make a.

See, where are we?

Oh, boy. You guys see my screen?

Yeah. Yeah, we can now.

Okay, cool. All right. So I asked it to make a. A video game, like a little spaceship space battle type game.

Yeah.

And where you can control it, and it doesn't really work. It works sometimes, but let's see if I repaste the code, if it'll.

If it'll work.

Yeah, it doesn't let me control it. I'm supposed to be able to, like, control a little green stuff. Yeah, sometimes. A couple times I've been able to do that, but right now it's not working.

So anyway, you would just go into Grok and you just be like, hey, the controls aren't working. And it would say, oh, yeah, let me fix that for you. And it'll figure out what the problem is. Right.

I tried that a couple times, and it wasn't. I've had different errors each time, so it's fair enough. But it's worked. It's worked a little bit, so, yeah, kind of cool.

I love it. All right, thanks, Rob. Here, I'll stop sharing your screen for you. All right. Did we miss anybody? Okay, I think we're. I think we're pretty good here, guys. I'll show you what I did. And I did one more prompt. I changed it to 2D. Here's my little solar system that's now actually working, which is kind of cool. And I added the ability to. When I click to do a shooting star, Right. I told it to give it a little tail or whatever that comes out of it, so that's kind of fun. So, yeah, guys, look, a couple of us are coders. Most of us are not. But we're building code, right? Hundreds of lines of code in just a few minutes with just a single prompt. And it's really just not that complicated. When you're working with AI now, it's no more complicated than if you were talking to your developer that you hired. You say, hey, developer, this is what I need, and I want you to do this. Oh, hey, this doesn't work. Could you fix that? Yeah. Hey, when I click here, I want it to do this. Hey. And I want the customer to be able to do this. That's really what AI allows you to do. All of us are fluent in the interface of speaking with AI because it's just natural language, right? Or nlp, Natural Language Processing. We all know how to talk. And so because we all know how to talk. We all now know how to code. Now. This is very, very primitive. Very, you know, whatever. We're going to be doing way better stuff right inside of other things. But I'm sorry, did I hear someone or a comment? Maybe not. Maybe I just heard something pop up. Okay, so. Oh, it's me. I'm hearing somebody is. Make sure you're just on mute. You're not talking. That would be an easy way to do it. Let me hear an echo of myself. It's Austin, Brian or Dan. You guys are the only ones that made it. All right. Okay. There we go. All right, so. So, guys, over the next few days, we're going to be. We're gonna be doing some really fun stuff. I want to. I want to. I want to dive into. Into Replit a little bit here. Now. I don't need you guys to. To jump into Replit yet, okay? I want you to just watch me for a bit here and, and we're going to. We're going to just kind of play with something here. Now. Replit is, in my opinion, the best IDE or integrated development environment. There's a lot of them out there. There's lovable and bolt and cursor and tons more. Right. We can go down the list. Right. And they're getting acquired and eaten up and, you know, they're changing hands constantly. And this is, you know, we're in the AI race right now. Replit's a really interesting one that I'm a huge fan of and you'll understand why as we keep going through this. But one of the cool things that I get to do every single time I, I teach a course and I've taught, you know, 12 of these cohorts, and then I've. I've taught a bunch of businesses and, and I've, you know, done a bunch of university things, working with students and stuff. And so I've built about 30 different apps with this thing. And then of course, I've built a lot of things Genaipi, right? My. My entire website here, all of this is done completely with. With replit, right? The entire thing where you guys signed up for, for the. For the course here. But. But I'm going to think of a new business here. So I'm going today. I'm gonna. I'm gonna be going down actually to Outpost X, which is really cool. So I'll be doing out. I'll be doing this course tomorrow and Wednesday from Outpost X inside of a motorhome. And I haven't. I haven't rented a motorhome for a long time. Like, actually, I never personally have. The last time I was in a motorhome was my dad renting it. You know, gosh, it's got to be 20 years, maybe. Maybe 25 years ago. Long time ago. But I'm not gonna lie. I kind of hated the experience renting the motorhome. It was really bad. And so I'm gonna rebuild. I'm gonna build a new company that rents motorhomes and RVs. Right. Or allows you to list them and, you know, whatever. I'm the website that allows people to list them and do it. I'm gonna make it way better than anything that's out there. So that's my idea. That's what I'm gonna do. So let's see. Website that allows people to rent motorhomes and RVs. They can list. Let's see. People can list on the site, and people can rent on the site. Make the landing page interactive. And. Yeah, let's just say make the landing page interactive. That's all I'm going to give it. We're just going to start. Going to start right now. Okay. So very simple. Again, we're going to call it a bad prompt. I like to go from bad prompt to good prompt to great prompt to amazing prompt. I like to. I like to show, like, what most people do that's not that great, and then go to where. Okay, this is how we're going to do it. Our prompt later on, guys, when you guys actually build inside of replit, is going to be about three pages long. Okay, so that's. That's a good prompt, right? When you're really, really doing that. So still, even that. It called it road rover. It named it for me. Now, it's going to do a lot of things. Now while it's thinking here, I want to talk for a second here. We're going to have. We're going to pick on Spencer. Spencer, I want you to tell us how you get ready in the morning. And you're muted, by the way. Sorry.

Yeah. So I get up right now. I've got these retainers I don't love, but they're fixing my teeth. So I put those in after I brush my teeth. And then I get showers, go get my clothes on. I go make some breakfast. We've got a tiny farm, too. So I go feed our chickens and check on our alpacas and then kind of get going for the day.

No, I love it. All right, zoom in on that a little bit. Tell Us how you brush your teeth. Like, walk us through, like, your routine for brushing your teeth. Take your retainers out. Then one.

Then I have my electric toothbrush. I grab it, I turn on the hot water. I don't like germs. I rush up, get under the hot water, put my toothbrush on the brush. I've got an electric toothbrush that kind of tells me how long it goes for. So I sit there until it beeps. Just keep brushing back and forth on all the different areas and then rinse my mouth and spit it out.

Very cool. All right, so what, what you're doing there is called chain of thought reasoning, right? And we do this as humans very automatically. Okay. We take a task like get ready, and then boom, you just list off. Okay? Get ready means I do this, this, this, this, this, this, and this. And then even within those tasks, there's subtasks, right? You're going to brush your teeth, okay? You're going to, you're going to, you know, you're going to get the water hot, you're going to get rid of the germs, you're going to open the toothpaste, you're going to put some toothpaste on our brains. Just know how to, how to categorize all these little subtasks all the way down to accomplish this main goal of get ready. And so AI has just recently, just in the last year, really been able to do this chain of thought reasoning. And it's only now starting to get really good. But that's what it's doing here, right? It's building, you know, it's, it's, it's kind of just starting to work on this. But it's doing chain of thought reasoning where it's saying, hey, this guy wants me to build a website, and it needs to be about RVs. And now it's starting to think through. Well, what does that look like? I mean, look what it's built, guys. This is a fully functioning, you know, I mean, it will be a fully functioning website once it's done, but it's using chain of thought reasoning to say, okay, well, a website has a menu, and a menu has different options. And because this is an RV rental site, this is what we're going to need. We're going to need to sign in, you're going to need to become a host, you want to browse RVs, you're going to need to be able to search, you're going to explore. Right? It's just thinking here is what I think right now. Again, this is important. In the very beginning we did this mind blowing visualization, right? And you let the AI just think, what do you want it to do? Well, obviously we're going to work on making a better prompt so that it knows what we want, not just what it wants. Okay? And so we'll work on how to, how to do that and we'll use ChatGPT and do some really fun things there. But, but in, in literally seconds, right? I mean, this is way faster, way faster than doing something like WIX or some Shopify site or whatever, right? And I've done that, I've done those things and they're supposed to be like super easy. Anyone can do it, click on a template, whatever. But how many of you have set up a Shopify site? How long does it take? It's ridiculous. It takes days to get it right and you have to type tons of content and then you have to change and all of a sudden you're like, ah, man, this one doesn't have that one feature I want. So you have to change to a new theme. And then now everything's broken and I have to start over and I have to drag things, you know, it's just ridiculous, right? And so even the things that are supposed to be kind of done for us are not. AI actually does it for us. And what it's doing here, for those of you that are developers, right, I mean you can, you can see all the code that it's writing here, right? But it's creating a schema now. It's creating a storage. And you look over here, if you open the files, you'll see that it's starting to create all these different things. It's got different components of the ui, buttons and calendars, cards, carousels, charts, all of these different features and elements and things. It's building them out from scratch. Well, some of them, it's pulling in templates, right? But then it's, but, but then it's going to be customizing all that, putting it together. And so for the next maybe 10 or 15 minutes and we won't sit here and watch the whole thing, but for the next 10 or 15 minutes, it's just going to keep building out everything that it needs to do. And it was written probably about 3,000 lines of code by the time it's done. And you've built a website from scratch that is completely customizable and ready to rock, right? And so by the way, when, when it first creates it, it creates what's called a visual preview. So If I try clicking here, like I can't click on become a co host. I can't click on any of this stuff. But when we come back in a few minutes, it will all be, it will all be working really, really well. Okay, so pretty cool.

John, quick question, and this doesn't have to be answered now, but is this app that it's creating locked to the platform or can I take it off and then host it anywhere I want?

You can kick it out to GitHub and do whatever the heck you want with it.

Nice.

Okay, very cool. It will take all that raw code. We'll talk about all kinds of amazing integrations. You can literally connect GitHub right to it version control and then you can push things out. You can even come in here and use SSH to configure remote access. So you can use whatever, you know, development platform you like to push into it if you know what you're doing, right? And so even if you're like, hey, you know what, I want to edit this, but I want to edit it directly with Claude or with cursor, with some other thing. You can push it and have it point directly at this. So Replit Sauce. Now, the thing I like about Replit guys, is that for those of you that didn't understand half of what I just said, right, it does all of these things for you. It has the database internal. Like an internal database has internal, you know, PostgreSQL everything. It has all of these different things that you need to be able to deploy and host. Everything that I'm running on Gen API, everything is hosted and run from internal things inside of Replit, right? I am not using any external hosting now. I have tons of APIs that I'm connecting to and we're going to talk about all that. So I'm connecting to Stripe and I'm connecting to email systems, SendGrid and Twilio and all these different things, right? And chat GPT. I'm connecting to other. Or OpenAI. I guess I'm connecting to other things. But. But it's all done inside of Replit. You don't have to leave and go learn other systems to build all this stuff. But look at this building. So many cool things. Mark, go ahead.

I'm just trying. This is amazing. I'm just trying to kind of clarify where this is going. So I'm assuming by, you know. So let's say you think you said I like this idea about this RV website or app. At the end, after you finish everything, you're going to have this on the App Store so someone can go into Apple, find the app, get it or are they going to a website or what's the, what's the distribution play? I'm just wondering where, where, where this goes.

Yeah, I mean that's up to you, right? I mean if you want this to be an app, then great. I'm building specifically right now a website. Right. And so could I. And, and by the way, it's going to naturally build what's called a responsive website. Right. So it will work well on mobile and it will do all that stuff. But it's not really built for the App Store right now. But yeah, you'll be able to go to wildride.com right. I don't know if I like that. That might be like for anyway. But, but anyway we'll come up with a better name when we're working on our, on our strategy. But, but the idea here is I can get something built. I can, I can, you know it's going to be completely responsive to go back again to Gen ip. I'll sign out here, whatever. Right. This is all built on the same stack, right. If I switch over to maybe a more mobile type view, you know, it's going to automatically adjust. You know, the menu is going to work well. You know, everything, everything is happening. It's going to work really well. So it's ready for business and then you know, then we dive into. Okay, well how do you actually run a business and start a business and get customers? Yeah, we're going to talk about that too. But, but ultimately your distribution channel is whatever you decide you want it to be, whether it's just a website. But, but now I have a place where I can send people once I get their attention. Hey, you want to buy an RV or rent an rv, do it here. Right? You want to become a host and rent your rv. Great, you can do that here. Okay. This is building the product itself and then, and then, then we got to focus on distribution. But, but really you can do it wherever you want. Spencer, Go ahead.

So can you just talk to a bit about like resource usage within replit. So I mean obviously this is taking resource to do this. Is that just when you put in a prompt and it's generating this, is it just utilizing that from your, your. Because I guess we have credits, you know, when do the credits come into play and like how far can you go before it starts having to scale financially? Does that make sense?

Yeah, absolutely. So I'm going to answer this question. A little bit later. It's a great question, but there's. Yeah, there's a little thing right here that's your usage page, and we're going to go over it, but I don't want to get too far ahead because I don't want to confuse everybody. But, but to give you a, A quick answer, it costs me less than $50 a month to run this full scale, making over six figures a month.

Month.

Right. Okay. So, I mean, it's. It's nothing. It's peanuts, right? It's just crazy. Now, if I had. Now, one of the interesting things is this website isn't. Isn't super. Like, there's not a lot. People are mostly coming. They're kind of scanning. Then they'll sign up for a course or something. But, you know, some people do go through and they use the test and, you know, they'll run through the courses and go through different technology. You know, they'll go through the modules, things like that. But. But yeah, man, I mean, I'm barely. I'm barely touching anything here and making way, way, way, way, way more money than, than it's costing me to run this thing. So. But good question. We'll go. We'll really go over the usage. It's an important part of understanding your cost structure. Right. My goal, guys, is for everybody that's taking this course to be able to do something, even either in your existing business or in a new business. And you've paid off the thousand bucks that you paid me or 1250 to do this and then some. I mean, within the next seven days, like, if you haven't, if you don't do that, you did something wrong, right. Or you just didn't really care because you're like, whatever. I can. I can afford a thousand bucks to go learn and I'll do it in my, in my own time. But. But I've had many, many people come through this course, and by the time they're done with the three days, I have some people that have already paid it off. Landon, go ahead.

Yeah. So, like, what we're watching right now, what was like the prompt build up to that? I think you kind of mentioned it, but, like, is this something that takes a lot of iterations to actually get to, or is it more like replete kind of. This does most of it for you.

Yeah. So rep. What's going to do. All of it here. This is all I've told it so far. It's kind of ridiculous, right? I've given it almost nothing and now this is starting to get interactive, right? It's just building all these components out. They're starting to work, right. Browse RVs. Yeah, that didn't work because it's not built yet. And that's fine. But Replit is handling all of this now. We are absolutely going to. So, so just to very quickly review my story with how I. How I did this Gen IPI site I gave myself. So I've been doing, you know, some AI trainings and things like that and I've been, I've been, you know, consulting basically since I sold my startup a couple to two and a half years ago. I've been working on another startup but also doing a lot of consulting and whatever. And, and I just kind of gave myself. I started playing around with AI and building a lot, like really hardcore, doing a lot with IT and software development and I gave myself a challenge back in February and I said, hey, I wonder if I could start a business, like start a new software piece of software. And I knew I wanted to do it something around AI training and try to make it more into like a business that was, you know, that had certifications and all these different things, right? I said, can I start this business on Thursday? Can I start working on it on Thursday and have my first customer by Friday? That was my goal, right? Like really, really extreme. Like, can I do it in one day and. Or two days really? And it turned out it took me three days and it took me about 12 to 14 hours each day total. So it took me about 30 to 40 hours. But I built this in a weekend, right? Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and I had my first customer by Tuesday, right? So I didn't quite get my goal of two days in terms of getting my first dollar in, but first dollars came by Tuesday and then from then it just took off in a big way and I've done over, I don't know, probably close to $400,000 of business since that February 27 day. So it's been a few months and you know, this. And, and only, only, only maybe120,000 of that or so has been from courses like these, right? It's been a lot of other things happening as well on top of this. So I just turned it into a real thing. And now I have like press releases going out and news stories on me and all kinds of just crazy stuff just because I'm applying all the principles I know as an entrepreneur, but using AI to just hyperspeed everything. Okay, all right, so we'll come back to this, guys, actually, you know what? I guess it finished step one, which is kind of cool. It kind of went through that. If I Click on browser RVs, that's still not going to work because it hasn't built out the listings page yet. But we are going to go through and we're going to, you know, eventually if we were building this out, we would say, hey, I clicked on, you know, browse RVs and it didn't work. Right. So I can literally say that I could select. I can click this little button right here, select this and say when I click on this, it just gives an error. Maybe you haven't built it yet. Build it. Okay, all right, so it will consider. All right, maybe it's an error or maybe I haven't built it. So I gave it kind of two options there to think through, and now it's going to say, okay, great, well, let's build that out now. So when we come back in a few minutes, it would be done. Okay, so, yeah, you just mentioned clicking some moves in error. Let me first fix the select item error I can see in the console logs. Then investigate what's causing the click error. You just talk to it. Right. I had quickly missed. It didn't work. Right. Help me out. I actually kind of like the little, little while other than Wild Ride. I don't like Wild Ride, but like, whatever. So. All right, guys, so that's, that's kind of the, the beginning here. Brian, go ahead, ask a question and then we'll, we'll dive into the next, next part here.

Is there a limited amount of websites you can make with the subscription we paid for this morning?

Nope. I'm up to like 35 right now. And by the way, guys, I've. I've gotten pretty close to the, to the Replit team because I've been posting a lot and they kind of heard about me and now like their CEO is talking about me on podcasts and cool stuff like that. Right? And there's a big. I just did a big kind of podcast with them that was recorded last week and it'll go out probably in the next couple of weeks and they'll be really fun with them. So I'm really tuned into the Replica team and what they're doing, the business plan and the new features that are coming. And gosh, they. These guys are awesome. These guys are so good. Really, really excited. They're a billion dollar company right now. Let's see here. I just had somebody asked to join one of the things guys that I that I offer here. So, Austin, this is Keaton Wall. He said, hey, I want to. I want to jump in. If you refer somebody to come to this course, you're welcome to jump in again and keep listening and take it again kind of for free. Right? So we'll have. So, yeah, let's see if he can. Yeah, he's hopping in, so I'll. I'll admit him when he jumps in. All right, guys. Austin, did you have a question? Yeah, I did.

One of the things that we've been looking at doing is using appsmith to create some internal apps. Would you say that we can replace the idea of using appsmith completely with using replit and building internal apps this way?

Absolutely. Perfect. And there is a little bit of a process. You can't deploy directly from replit to the App Store. Right. If you're really focused on apps. Right. You don't want it to be like a mobile first website, whatever. Replit can do websites just, like, killer. But there's a little bit of a process to go through when you're doing that. But. But the reality is, guys, what you could do is you could build out, you know, the entire thing with. With say. With. Say repl it and then push it to GitHub, and then from GitHub, you know, open up, like, cursor or something like that, and then just say, hey, I want to optimize this so it's ready to export into Xcode or whatever I need to do. Right. And it'll just do it for you. So we'll talk about some of those things, some of those workflows. Learning how to connect AI systems together and have them bounce off each other is where the magic really starts to happen. Welcome, Keaton. Keaton's gonna be just listening, and he just. He just barely joined, so. Yeah.

One more question. If you have.

Go ahead.

How easy is it connect, like, APIs from our internal databases into, like, using Replit and making databases like that?

Yeah, it's like you just ask your developer, replit to do it. Hey, I need to connect to this database. Great. Well, what do you want me to do? Oh, well, here's. Here's the, you know, endpoint. Here's whatever. Right. And we'll just do it. Right.

And is it pretty good at reading, like, the API document documentation for these different APIs and figuring that out?

Yeah, if you don't. Yeah. Normally it will just go look it up on its own, but, like, if you can't figure something out or if it's like some New one that, that maybe. Or maybe it's your own internal one. You just hand it the documentation. It's like, I've read all this and I just did it. It's done, right? It's crazy. That's really cool. 30 seconds and you've got your API set up. Okay. All right, guys, we're doing really good. First hour. We learn. Everyone can code now, right? We've learned how to prompt a little bit. We've kind of understood how to do all that stuff. What we're going to do now, guys, and, and, and sometimes I'll go through and I'll ask everybody what, what their business is going to be, what they're going to work on. Because we have a big group, we're probably not going to do that. But I don't want you to stress too much about what you pick right now, okay? You're going to work on something like build. Build your guitar thing or whatever. Like, it doesn't matter what it is. You can build something awesome. You're going to learn how to do it, and you'll be able to spin up a new site like, you saw how fast I did that, right? And you'll be able to go through this whole process that we're about to go through here very, very quickly. And I've had some people take this course, and by the end, they built three different things because they're just like, I wanted to start over and do this right. And I do that all the time. I'll be an hour into something. I'm like, I just don't like the direction this is going. Instead of trying to, like, rip it up and do this, I'm just going to throw and start over and new prompt. I'm going to tell it, hey, don't do this. Don't do this. You know, trying to, trying to, you know, get, get the right thing to happen here. But what we're going to dive into now, guys, is CHAT GPT, okay? And we're going to learn about some cool stuff in ChatGPT that some of you might know and some of you might think you know, but you're going to learn a little bit here, right? So ChatGPT is, in my opinion, still the best AI out there, AI system out there for the general public, right? There's a lot of specialized systems that do great things. Like, obviously ChatGPT can't do what Replit's doing, although I'm absolutely positive they're working on it, right? They're buying stuff and all kinds of Things are happening in the IDE world, the integrated development environment world. But most AI systems have a few features that are similar. Right. If you were to go to Anthropic, which is Claude or, you know, Grok doesn't quite have this yet, but ChatGPT has some really cool things that I really like that help with context. Right? Context we're going to talk about for a second. Context, basically, is in terms of, you know, in relation to AI is basically what it understands about what you're asking it. Right? And so if I give it no context here and I just say, you know, what do you mean? Right? If I just ask it, this question right here is gonna be like, I don't know how to answer this, but it'll probably come up with a pretty fun, you know, response. What do you mean? Like, could you clarify? All right, that's good.

All right.

At least it's, you know, saying, all right, I don't know what you're talking about. Right. But obviously giving it more context is going to help it give you better results across the board. Okay, hold on, let me make sure I'm on do not disturb. Yeah, I am. I'm getting all kinds of notifications and what I'm going to do is go into focus mode. Oh, I didn't turn my phone on. Do not disturb. That's why. All right, okay, so inside of Chat GPT, there is something called a memory. Okay? Now your memory is, is in ChatGPT is personalization, manage memories is not a lot of people think that Chat GPT knows everything you've ever talked about and it does not. It doesn't have the ability. It's. It's context. It has a context limit, Right? It's a certain number of tokens. And I've had thousands of conversations with ChatGPT. There's no way it could possibly have all of that data inside of it. And so what it does is it just takes little snippets, right? And so he's building this platform, right? He's doing this, he's chosen this, unfortunately, it knows all of these little mini apps I've built. Right? But it does know him, an entrepreneur and a composer and a consultant, Right? He's building businesses, creating music. Right. He's fluent Spanish and Chinese. John's a classified Whitewater kayaker, member of the church Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints. Right? It understands these types of things. So if I ask it questions, it gives me answers in the context of what it thinks I am.

Right.

And what it knows about me. Right? And so that's one. You've got a system context, basically. So it understands who I am. Then inside of any conversation, if I were to go down here and say, hey, I have this weird bump on my hand, right? Like, what the heck is going on? And I literally, I took a picture of this little bump on my hand. Turns out it's a little like, I don't even know what it's called. The doctor's gonna go take it out. But anyway, I couldn't figure it out. But if I were to just say, hey, you know, I. I have an appointment to get this taken out now. Minor surgery, right? So I'm just kind of updating it, right? And it's gonna say, great, that's awesome. I'm glad you figured it out. Okay, good call. Especially since it's painful. Whatever. So. But it knows what I'm talking about already because I went back to this conversation. I'm talking about it. If I were to go in and start a new conversation and say, hey, what was that thing? That was the bump on my hand, it would say, I don't know what you're talking about because it didn't add this to the memory. It doesn't know everything that I've done. So you've got two levels of memory here, right? I've got the chat. Right. I've got the chat level memory, and then I have the system memory. Then there's a third one inside of ChatGPT that's really awesome. And it's this project memory. Okay. This project. So I'm going to call this, you know, rv, RV Renting site. Okay, Great project. Okay. So I'm going to create a new project for my business. You guys will all do this in a second. Okay?

Just.

You just pay attention for a minute. But, but now what we're going to do is we're given this new project and we can give the project even more context if we want. So if I'm building something maybe for my own business that already exists and I have a bunch of files or I have a bunch of documents, or maybe I just have notes on my phone or whatever it is, you can grab those and you can just drag them into here, and then it will know everything about your business inside of the project already. Now I'm going to start. I'm kind of starting from scratch here. And so, you know, we'll. We'll work on that. The other thing I can do here is I can add instructions on how, you know, how I want this GPT to Help me. Okay, so I want you to help me build a category defining business like Steve Jobs would actively disagree with me. If you think my ideas are bad, help me improve my ideas constantly. Don't just be a yes man. Okay? And then I can do other things like this too. I could say, call me John. Okay, all right. Save. So now it knows what to call me. It knows that I want it to help me. I want it to actively disagree with me and help me sometimes it will be a yes man. Right? You have to understand, if you talk to ChatGPT, you're going to feel so freaking good about yourself. You're going to think you're the smartest person in the world because it's going to make you feel like that. And I don't think that's very productive. And you know, OpenAI has gotten some flack and other AIs have gotten some flack for that because they're just like, yeah, I have this terrible idea. And they're like, you are a genius. Inspired. It's not only this, it's that, you know, whatever you can, you can just recognize AI when, you know, when you read it on LinkedIn or whatever. I don't use, you know, I use AI for a lot. I do not use AI to write my posts. All of my stuff, I post every day, twice a day on four social platforms. And it's a lot of work. But, but I like to write and so it's a place where I can get my thoughts out, share things that I think are worth sharing. So, so anyway, we'll talk about social. That's day three. Okay. But now I've, I've given it files, I'm giving it some instructions. What I'm going to do here now is I'm actually going to just copy this and I'm going to just paste it. Whoops. We need to go to here and we're going to go. Okay. I want, I want to make a website people list. Same people around the side. I recently rented a motorhome and hated the experience. We need to take them down. So I've started my conversation with, you know, with JB team. All right, what specifically sucked? That's awesome, right? What was wrong with it? Okay, so we'll, we'll get into this in a minute. It's starting to ask me some questions. I love that differentiated test nuclear disruption moves. It's doing all kinds of stuff. Okay, fantastic. So it's starting to do that, but I'm kind of going to ignore the first prompt. What we're going to do here, guys, is we're going to use a really cool kind of prompting tool, I guess, that allows you to kind of flip the script and you have. Because I think AI think a lot of people rely on AI too much. Or these kind of go with what the AI says. I, personally, I'm a creator. I like to create. I've got three pianos in this room, couple guitars. I've got all my, you know, my systems and, you know, video stuff and music production, all the stuff. I'm a creator. That's just what I do. And I find a lot of joy in it. I create businesses, I create jobs, I create ideas, I create adventures, I create memories. I think we all create. I think that it's. I think that creation is humans, humanity's superpower. And so I want, I don't want AI to take that away from me. And so the way that I do that is I say, okay, hey, you're going to help me do it, but I'm still going to be the one creating. And so we're going to do is we're going to ask IT to interview us. All right, so I want you to interview me one question at a time about this business. Ask me about the name, branding, colors, usps, you know, unique selling propositions. What make what. What makes this unique? Monetization strategies. Let's see here. We'll just say that and anything else you need to know so that we can build this app. It'll be building in replit. So take that into. Whoops. So take that into account. Okay, I'm going to copy this and I am going to drop this prompt for you guys. You'll be able to use it in a second. It's in the chat when you're ready. But now what I'm going to do. Whoops, I did that wrong. Sorry, my bad. And we'll drop the correct one there. And I'm just gonna click send. So what it's going to do here now, it's gonna say, okay, great. Hey, let's interview you. All right. What's the name of the business? Right. If you don't have one yet, what feeling or image do you want the name to evoke? Do you want it to feel rugged and outdoorsy and luxurious and elite techboard modern? I just want it to be better. I, you know, I'm, I'm not too picky. What ideas do you have? Okay, all right. I'm not super attached. I actually like coming up with a name right at the beginning of Coming up with a new. A new idea. You know, Rome Lee is not bad. That's kind of tech startupy. Cameras, Drift, Drifter Summit, Haven Hall, Verbor Wayfair. And if I don't like them, I'd be like, give me ten more ideas. Right. RV Match, Rent Rigs. RV Match isn't bad. I wonder if that's available. That's kind of really on the, on the head. So normally if I'm checking for an idea, remember, guys, we're building a business, right? This is what I'm doing when I'm building a business. Rvmatch.com is totally available. That's actually a pretty dang good domain. 3000 bucks is probably. If I were actually starting this business, I probably, I normally don't recommend spending $3,000 on a domain. I, you know, I mean, heck, I could do RBMatch AI. And then you're like, really go with that and be like, hey, this is going to be like super awesome and only pay 49 bucks for it. Right. But I'm going to go with RV Match. I think that's a cool name. Yeah, let's go with RV Match. Okay, so I tell it and then I'll say, great. All right, what's the next. Here's, here's the next question. Okay, so then I'll just keep going through this. So this is where you guys get to jump in and we're going to spend. You guys are going to get 15 minutes here basically to work on your own project, whatever it is. You're going to open chat GPT, you're going to click new project and you're going to call it whatever. You add, whatever, you know, prompt instructions you want. Right. I'm going to go back to the prompt instructions so that you can see them here. I'll just copy this and I'll drop them in as well if you want them. Okay. You can copy them if you want to have Steve Jobs actively disagree with me that all that stuff. Okay, so I dropped that into the chat. And then if I click refresh, my little chat would be here so I can keep going. And so I'm going to sit here. I'll keep my screen on. I'm going to keep typing and doing all this, but you guys now need to build yours. I want you to get through about 10 questions, all right? And, and then when you're done with the 10 questions, don't have it. Build a business plan or whatever for you. I just want you to just answer questions and then, and then just kind of pause. All right, go ahead. Shan. Sorry, Shan, did you have a question? Maybe. Did. Or maybe you're muted and go up. Yeah, you're muted. There we go.

Can you hear me now? Sorry, I was just wondering if when you're explaining things, if it's better to do like bullet points or if it's better to do it like descriptive in a paragraph.

Just talk. You can do a little words and bullet points. You could show it a picture if you want. Okay. Yeah.

Thank you.

Yeah, good question. So, yeah, guys, just jump in. Obviously, if you're not building a business and you're just building a tool or something like that, that's okay. Tell it that. Right. This is what I'm trying to do. This is what I'm trying to build. This is what I want. This is my business. This is what I'm doing. I need to build a new tool that does this and organize like. Shan, I think you were talking about building some tool for your sales reps or sales training, whatever it is. Right. Tell them what you're doing, whatever it is that that's going on.

Hey, John, I have a question. If I'm on the right track.

Yeah.

One of the things that I, that I have to do, you know, fairly consistently and immediately is build out a new funnel within Go High level for client, basically more or less from scratch. Do you think that's something that would make sense here to say, hey, let's.

Build out a.

Thing that can go into go high level and build out the entire funnel and all the emails and all the automations and all the connections within the app. Or do you think that's.

So you're saying you want to build something that will help you build go high level funnels faster? Is that what you're saying?

Yeah, I mean, what I'd love to do is just go to a website or go into this website and say, this is my client's business. This is their customer avatar. This is their core offering. Go ahead and build out a funnel with an email sequence and automation and wait time and just build it all out for me within.

You interview them or whatever. You fill out your little customer onboarding form or even have.

This is their core offering. Go ahead and build out a funnel with an email sequence and automation and wait time and just build it all out for me within.

It's a super cool idea, Mark, and. Absolutely. So you're going to build out a system where you basically fill out, you know, you interview them or whatever. You fill out your little customer onboarding form or even have them do it. And then you just push a button and boom, you have all of the outputs and everything that's just copy paste right into there. And Go High Level may even have an API. You could just automate having everything sent over. So.

Because the challenge within Go High Level is like, yeah, yeah, let me, let me run with that, Let me run with that.

Yeah, just start talking to ChatGPT. It know, the cool thing is ChatGPT knows more about GoHighLevel. I know a lot about it, but it knows way more than I do. And so just talk to it. Say, oh, yes, this is what I'm trying to do. It's really, really cool. Love the idea. It, It's. You guys. One of the things it's asking me right now, you can keep working, but just behind the scenes here, it's asking me like, but what's going to make, you know, RV match better? Right. And, and obviously gives a few ideas. But one of the things I really like to ask is where is the gap in the market? What is no one else doing? Right? That's. I, I love doing that whenever I'm starting a business. What, what's new? What's going to be the wedge that gets us in there? Where's the gap in the market? Got about five minutes left. All right, guys, take about another minute and just kind of finish up your little interview. Now. When I did my interview process with gen AIPI, I spent about 3 hours doing this and I was trying to figure out, like I wanted to really dig in deep into some things and did a bunch of research and stuff like that. And we're gonna do some research right now. Right? But, but you obviously, you know, if you want to dive in and spend 40 hours building something, it's gonna be different than if you're doing it in three hours. Right? And, and we're doing more of the three hour version right now. So it's really just kind of learn how to do it, then you can go back and do these types of things later. But this interview process is really, really cool. All right, so at this point, guys, you've gone through, I don't know, seven questions, eight questions, 10 questions. I went through 15, which is way more than I normally do. I just kind of on task. So what we're going to do from here is we're going to, it's going to be very simple, right. Please use the Canvas tool and create a 2000 word business plan with everything discussed. Okay, I'll drop this in the chat as well. So you guys can use that. But now I'm just going to click this. And the Canvas tool is really neat here inside of ChatGPT, where it basically just pushes your, your chat over to the left here. And then you've got this, this kind of document actually that's on the right. And it's going to take everything we just discussed and put it into a full business plan for you. It's got all the different features, everything's going on, the colors, the branding, go to market strategy. Like, how are we going to do this? Traction, you know, here's the executive summary, right? I'm doing Apple level polish with GoPro level adventure. Right? Here's the problem statement. It's over complicated. Didn't really like that, didn't have any AI tools. Who's the target audience? Usp. Right. And so, boom. I now have a beautiful business plan. Pretty cool. Okay, so go ahead and do that really quick, guys. Just copy, paste my little prompt in there and you guys should have a business plan ready to go. Okay. The next thing that we're going to do and go ahead and just kind of do this as we go, but now what we're going to do is we're going to start using AI to help us. We're going to use multiple AI systems to try to get some feedback on this and try to do this well. So back to Grok. Bring it back to Grok again. And the reason I like to use Grok to do feedback on a business plan is because it can.

Sorry to interrupt you, John. Could you put the prompt you just gave us in the chat so I can copy and paste it?

Yeah, it is there. The, the. Please use the canvas.

Oh, sorry, I didn't scroll down.

Yeah, you're good. But yeah, so just paste. That should build your business plan. But what we're going to do now is after you've got your business plan made, which should take all of about 20 seconds, you're going to copy it, okay? And there's a little copy button up here. Just push the copy button. And then we're going to bounce back to Grok. I want you to start a new conversation in Grok. Okay? And now this is where you'll want to have a paid version of Grok. If you do not have a paid. If you're not on X Premium, you can also open a new chat in Chat GPT, like open a new window and use the deep search. Use a search functionality. Right. I like to use Grok again because. Just because it can Search real time consumer sentiment. Right. I can have it look and be like, here's all the problems that I had with renting a thing and I hated this and this site was good, or I had a great experience and whatever, it can search for that kind of stuff instantly. You can literally do market research and customer feedback right inside of the AI. Okay, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to paste my. My business plan into Grok, okay? And it might have a bunch of, you know, all these hashtags, no big deal, under these pound signs, maybe call them these days. I'm going to say, I want you to do some research on this business plan and this market and give me feedback about whether or not this is a good idea. Yeah. That's all I'm going to do. Please help me improve the idea. Worry too much about the format of the business plan itself. Care more about the content and the ideas. Okay, so I will copy this as well and drop it into chat. Now what we're going to do here, if you're in Grok and if you have a paid version of it, then you can. You click this deep search button right here. So this little toggle right here, it says deep search and you just turn it on and then you click go. Okay, now you can do this same thing, guys. Inside of. Inside of ChatGPT, if you go into a deep search, there's another, another way to do this. You would open up just a new chat and you would say tools, and you would say run deep research, right? So, boom, now we've got research turned on. You can drop that, do that same prompt, and now you're rolling. Okay, all right, But I'm having Grok do it. So Grok, right now, you know, it's already searched 44 sources. It's going to search. It's going to search a bunch of tweets that are out there. Assessing the plan.

Hey, John, what is the main difference between the deep search and deeper search on croc?

Just how long it will do it for now do deep search. Deeper search. Will. Will. Will spend an extra 10 minutes working for you.

Okay.

It's actually quite awesome. I do it all the time. But just for time's sake, I would just do deep search right now. This one should finish within about a minute or two or three. Sometimes it'll take up to three minutes. I don't know. I don't know why it does that, but it's really cool to. It's really cool to actually kind of read the you know what it's doing? Like, hey, okay, I need to do this. I need to focus on content ideas. All right, let's see what this is doing.

Right?

And it kind of, it's doing that chain of thought reasoning. You kind of read what it's actually doing. I'm going to switch my angle here for a minute because my back's feeling it sitting here at the, at this a little bit. Okay. So it says. All right. Research suggests RV Match is a promising idea, focusing on first time renters in a growing market. Okay, looks like there's some good things here. Right? Evidence. Lean towards a viable business model, but success depends on execution and scalability, community building, user education, legal compliance. Yeah, I get all that stuff. So pretty cool. So now I've got a bunch of, a bunch of feedback as far as what I want to do. Now what I could do also is I could say in Grok, I can also switch it to the think mode, which is actually a different model. It's gonna, it's gonna operate differently than the search. We just did a bunch of research now. So I'm gonna say now I want you to give me 10 ways that I can improve. Yeah, improve the business. Plan the business. Yeah. Idea with the research you just up with. You just did. That's better. Okay, copy. I'll drop that into the, into the chat as well. If you want it. So you can do a second one. You don't have to, but, but this is the type of stuff that I do is I'll run it through multiple, multiple filters. I might, even if I was really, you know, going crazy, I might bounce over to Anthropic and do some other things and do a couple other models. The reason I use different models, guys is they're all trained differently, they all think a little bit differently. They're all going to check different things and look at different angles. And you know, I don't have to, I don't have to super know what the different models do, but I just know that they're all different and therefore I'm going to get good feedback. And obviously if I was building, you know, a real business for me because I'm not actually going to build this RV Share business or this RV Match business. Although it sounds fun, it just, I don't have time to run 10 businesses. I would be reading every word coming through. Right. I'd be reading everything and asking questions about it and diving deeper and it gets really, really fun to start getting into conversations about this. Okay, so yeah, here's Here's a bunch of feedback now. So I've got all this research that's done. That's amazing. And then I've got all, all of these ideas. 10 Ways to Make my, my business plan better. And so now what am I going to do? I'm just going to copy this entire response from Grok. I'm going to come back to Chat GPT back to my project and I'm going to say, I'm going to paste it and then I am going to, And I'm going to say, please create an improved business plan in a new canvas based on the feedback below. Copy. I'll give you guys that prompt as well. I'm going to pause here for a second, guys, so you can catch up. But, but now we're creating a new canvas. There we go. Okay, really cool, Man. I've got a good plan here. This is a really good business plan. I love this. Okay, so guys, any questions? I. I know, I know. I'm moving a little bit quick here. Basically, you should be working on getting feedback and building a revised and improved business plan inside of Chat GPT in this canvas tool. By the way, you can type in it, right? If you want to change a word, you want to change something you don't like the way something's said or whatever, you can, you can take care of that. You just jump in and type. This is just like a Google Doc or a, or a Word Doc or whatever. Okay, next step. All right, so now we've got a business plan, right? And by the way, guys, when you, when you build a canvas inside of a chat, in Chat GPT, you can close out of that thing. It's just a document that now kind of lives inside there. You can go back to the first business plan. You can see that the, the other ones, there's multiple documents now. So now we're going to create a third document, right? I guess we've created just two versions of one document. So we got, we've got our business plan perfect. That's, that's step one. The next thing we're going to do is we're going to ask it to build a feature list. Okay? We're gonna say, please build a feature a, a complete feature feature list for all front end and back end functionalities. Don't specify which tools or languages would be used for each feature or languages would be used for each feature. Just want the feature lists categorized as you see fit. Okay? So there's the prompt. Oh, sorry, we got to do this. Please build this in a new canvas. Sorry. This is the one you want. See if I can delete this other one. I can.

Perfect.

Okay. Yeah, so go ahead and copy that prompt. What this is going to do is going to create a new canvas, and it's just going to create a nice list. Just want the feature lists categorized as you see fit. Okay. So there's the prompt. Oh, sorry. We got to do this, please. Right. User roles, RV listing, search and discovery, booking engine, payment system, reviews and ratings, trust and safety, AI features. All kinds of cool stuff here.
