I ❤️ AI Q&A: AI Solutions Architect Course Recap, Insurance Use Cases, & New AI Tools

to happen upon this livestream, uh, cuz it's called like I Love AI. So only if you know and love AI will you actually find it, but it is public. So I wanna make sure you all know that. All right, we are live. It is happening. Um, so let's start first. Welcome the first call since I went to China. So many interesting things happened while I was in China this, uh, for the last couple weeks. Um, and we also did a first time ever 5-day crash course into AI Solutions Architecture. And from what I can tell, it actually went very well. Like people, you know, I don't know, I'm one of those people like life moves fast and the more space I give something, the less likely I am to, to finish it, to be honest. Like if I, you know, I'm like, oh, I'm gonna do it in 6 months. Like I probably don't even make it to month 2 or 3 before I'm distracted and thinking about doing something else. So I feel like this, this format was built for someone like myself who's just like, I wanna laser focus. Get it done, you know, force myself to spend time on something in the short term, and then I can of course grow that skill set over longer periods of time. But we had like 160 people go through the, the course. We're probably going to see maybe 50 people get certified. That's my hope. Um, it might be a little, uh, liberal, optimistic, but, but that's my hope. So one of the things I wanted to share with you all today is, A, what that curriculum looked like, what we went through, and then also share with you the requirements for certification for those of you who are still in the running. Uh, the date is actually today that they were due. However, um, that was just for the, you know, that was generally speaking. You can actually, because you are, if you're in the AI Leadership Institute and took this class, if I run this class next month, you could take the class next month and you can get cert, like you can get certified at any time as long as you meet the, the requirements of the certification. And they're not hard, but they, what, what's the word? It's not, um, It's simple but tedious. So like the activities are not super difficult. It just takes a minute to like think about it and write it down. And it does require some dedicated effort, maybe 3 hours, 4 hours of your time. All of our certifications at the AI Leadership Institute, we have 3 of them in our current level, and that is the one we just did, AI Solutions Architect, Agentic AI Practitioner, and Responsible AI Leader. And all of them require you to create a video. To demonstrate your knowledge. And most people are like, ah, I don't wanna do that. So there are ways around it. You don't have to have your face on the video, but the whole point of being a doer and not a, you know, just a talker is that you show and demonstrate what you can do. And so every single thing we do includes building something, uh, and talking about what you did in a Loom video. Doesn't even matter how long it is, but, but But those are the things that differentiate us, right? Like you can go and get a certification on Coursera and never actually demonstrate what you learned at all, which I know because I've done multiple courses there. DeepLearning.ai, you can go, great content, but it's not like they don't test you. Um, unless you, again, unless you wanna like invest in their, uh, in their, um, what are they called? Nanodegree programs. But, but I like to, I don't know, test you in a different way. Like I'm not gonna ask you multi, multiple choice questions, I'm gonna ask you to build what we learn to build and then teach it back to me. And that skill alone, I think, is really valuable. So, so let me first start by going and sharing with you the, what, what I'm talking about in case you don't know what this class is. And also, if you're new to the AI Leadership Institute, you'll get access. We run these every quarter. We run through all of them. So we just did Solution Architect. Next month, we'll do Responsible AI Leader. Are actually, I think we're gonna do Agentic AI Practitioner and then Responsible AI Leader. So every 3, you know, every 3 months you have a chance to go through them again. And I would encourage you, all the content changes every time we teach it. So the tech changes, the code changes, the apps change. So it's really, uh, a great opportunity. And that's why I do it cuz I, I think it's very, very important to learn kind of practically, uh, how this, how the tech works and how it's evolving over time. So I'm just gonna open up Maven and go into— hopefully it signs me in.

Yay!

Go into my course. And there we go.

All right.

So let's— so I'm just gonna share it with you so you can see it, hopefully. I don't know why you're sharing, Noelle. So if— are you saying that we can finish it a little bit later, or it has to be— yeah, you can submit it anytime. I just like to give you, you know, when we're in the class, it's good to get a time frame. So about, like I said, about 20 people were able to get it done like I, I've gotten receipt— receipts from, um, from projects, so I'm reviewing them now. Um, but like, you're, you're a member of the Institute, you could do it anytime. I just encourage you to set your own deadline if mine don't work for you, because if you don't, it'll just never happen. Like, you'll just never have a reason to knock it out. Um, all right, hold on one second. I know I had to yell at my children. Um, I might have to yell at them again because I don't think anyone came to save me. All right, hold on one second. I think they thought I was yelling like, be quiet. I wasn't. I was just asking them to shut my door. But are you there? Can you shut my door for me? Thank you. Okay, awesome.

Um, anyway, uh, Noelle, I have a, I have a question, uh, for the course because, um, So basically, if we look at— if we cannot participate in the course itself, but we can look at the videos and then submit, because indeed that was also my question. And so thanks for answering. I just wanted to bring it for other people that may be in the same situation as me with the time zones.

Absolutely, yes, because though we tried, we tried to do it late to accommodate some time zones, but then of course the other half of the world didn't get accommodated. So we will— every time we run these, we run them at different times. Sometimes it's kind of morning my time, sometimes evening, and sometimes right in the middle of the day. We're actually gonna send out, uh, a request, a poll to find out. We do our calls on Friday very selfishly based on a time zone that I wanted, but now we have a lot of us. So back then it was like 6 of us, so I just picked for everybody. Um, but now that we have a very, like a multinational, uh, community here, I wanna just get a sense for when people would want to have these community calls. The other thing is, is we also have a few mentors that are part of our program, and half of it is me telling you like some things, but the big value we get is that we actually get to get together and get to know each other and get to understand the work that we're doing. And so having multiple opportunities throughout the week to just join a call and network with each other and co-work or ask questions. There's lots of people at different levels of awareness and understanding. Um, so I'm gonna be sending out a, a poll to just ask like what timeframes would be good and we'll try to meet everyone where they are cuz You know, while it's good to see it on video, you know, Sophie, I definitely thought of you when I was like, oh, the next class we have to do in your time zone. Thank you. But it's very nice when you can be live with people. I don't know, live learning is like my favorite way to learn. So, um, okay, cool. Let me— oh dear, let me find the browser window. Oh my gosh, so many. It should be first. Oh, maybe it is first. Okay, share. All right, there we go. So this is our course. And oh, interesting. These are the sessions that we covered. And you're right. So Sophie was mentioning that we actually recorded all of this. So there's recordings for everyone. There's also content in each section to teach you the topic if you can't watch the video for some reason. So you can go in So you can go through the whole thing. There are homework assignments we call projects. So here, for example, the project was pretty simple. It was, you know, to introduce yourself to everybody. And I think down here, yeah, step by step, basically take the scorecard. So in this case, I was teaching you how to use AI to build a scorecard as an architect. Like, how do you, how do you assess your clients? Needs. And a scorecard is one way to do it, but I used Gamma and AI to build my own. So I'm demonstrating to you in the course how you can use mine, but the goal is not that you use mine. The goal is that you say, oh, wow, I could build my own scorecard using Gamma. I could create my own questions, develop my own customized rubric, and that becomes your IP, right? What you own, your differentiator in the marketplace. So it's just teaching you how to use tools like that, that Used to be, in, in my experience, those are things reserved only for the big, you know, the big four, the big consulting companies where they had teams of people that could build these scorecards and make them beautiful and get them to clients. And, and now it's quite accessible. So I, I, I use that as one of our first projects. But you can go through all the lessons, do the project work. The project work is not graded, it's just, and, and the assignment is to actually publish it in the community, in the AI Leadership School community. So you just publish like, hey, I'm, you know, you know, in Lesson 1 in the AI Solutions Architect course, and this is my project. And it just gives us all a chance to cheer you on if we've been there, or get inspired by you if we're still waiting to get started. Um, so I believe— let me go back. Oh my goodness. Okay, good. I'm glad they're taking care of emails. Um, let me go back. So the— all of this has been replicated, um, inside school, so you don't have to come to Maven when we do our classes live. I like the Maven platform. I'm not sure they like me very much because I just, I like the Maven platform because of its organization. In school, it doesn't allow me to interweave projects. They will soon though, because I've been providing a lot of feedback, but I can't like interweave projects in school. Like I could just, it would be like a module. It's just not as well crafted. So, so I usually like Maven. I also like Maven for a reason that I encourage all of you to use tools like Maven, like LinkedIn articles, like Medium. That if they have a big audience that your content can get in front of, like, post your content there, right? So I use Maven also because they have a bigger audience than I have and they're sharing what I'm doing with them. As a matter of fact, um, this is one of the highest rated, uh, certification projects or certification courses that they have. Um, and I'm super excited cuz we already have like 900 people on the waitlist for the next one, which I don't know what I'm gonna do about that. Um, but let me go ahead and take a look at the project. So these are all the projects in the course. Building through assessments, which I really like, building a custom model, and that was a feat in and of itself. We had about 120 people get access successfully and about 60 people who kind of like I battled with the entire 5-day course trying to get them access. I believe everyone has access at least to one model development tool on Microsoft. Now you could use any, any model tool. You could use ChatGPT, you could use, uh, Claude. If you are, you know, if you've invested in Amazon or Google and you're got Vertex on your machine, then you could use that. But the idea was how do you demonstrate learning by doing fingers on a keyboard? And then, um, I believe this was it. Yes. So, oh goodness. Let's see. Does it allow me to see the actual project? It doesn't. Let me go into the syllabus so you could see it. I think it's down here somewhere. Uh, uh, uh, I have to open it up and see where they are so you could see all the content that is here. Case study, planning a project. Oh, I think that's almost it. Let's see. Yeah, I think that was it. So this was basically the deliverables for the capstone project, right? Build a 1-page charter for a project. Which throughout the course, as an architect, your job is to envision the problem you're gonna solve and identify a metric that you're gonna use to measure to solve it, figure out a data plan, a model selection plan. All of these are just ideas, right? You're not building it, you're just creating a plan. I always say, my dad has taught me well, he says, you know, fail to plan, you can plan to fail. So just plan, like just writing it down will change the trajectory in a positive direction of any project that you deliver. Create a customer mini deck and demo. So this is the idea that I have made some assumptions on the problem I'm gonna solve, and now I'm gonna build a little customer deck to walk a customer through the problem I'm gonna solve for them. And I'm also going to do a demo. This is what I think is the difference between a typical solution architect who just could do like slides, and an AI solution architect, because as an AI solution architect, we have no-code platforms that we can use to demonstrate value.. And the earlier you do it in the conversation with the person you're trying to help, the better. The earlier they can see, wait, this is real. This isn't just talk. This isn't just hype. This isn't just, you know, Noelle, like waxing poetic. Like this is like legitimate. And so I, uh, encouraged everyone to take the AI Bot Builder, which if you are in the AI Leadership Institute, you have access to that. Um, if you purchased my book, you get access to it as well. So you might remember if you joined the I Love AI community, we ask you a question, did you buy Noelle's book? If you say no, it's fine. I hope you learned a lot here. But if you say yes, we automatically add you to that on-demand course, which is like, I don't know, it was like $425 when we sold it. So, but now I just give it as part of your journey to learning how to build safely and responsibly. So this demo piece isn't, is my ability to see through your eyes on how What do— what tools do you know how to use and how can you communicate them? Here's some good news. I had multiple calls while I was in China talking about telling me that because they took this course, they were able to be much more effective in the interview processes that they were in because throughout this course they were like playing around with AI Builder and Power Apps and they were playing around with Copilot Studio and ChatGPT and Chatbot Builder. So they had all of this wealth of experience that they could be like, oh yeah, I built a model on this and oh, I've thought How do we do that? And it just gave them so much more to pull from. And that is literally the goal, is that as an architect, our job is to create this really vast toolset of capabilities that we can pull from to architect a solution for our customers. The last part, which is actually new to this cohort, is developing a communication strategy. Because what I realized is that the second— number one reason projects fail is because there's not a clear metric for success and we don't know what success looks like, so it never gets off the ground because no one's like, are we done yet? Like nobody really understands. Lack of clarity. The second most common is that we don't accurately connect or communicate to our stakeholders about what we built and how we built it and why it serves the value that they're looking for. And so I thought it would be valuable to create a communication plan that addresses that gap that often happens. And it specifically happens in like baby tiger mode, right? When we're super excited and the model's doing something pretty cool, we don't really focus on like, how do we educate the, the stakeholders? What happens next? What is our roadmap? What are our next steps? We usually just kind of sit in the excitement and enamored by the technology that we're using that we don't really ask the hard questions that will turn into this communication plan. So that's my hope, uh, there. So that, that, those are the 3 components. So I hope that they are here now, but so Couple people asked me to go through the rubric for, uh, the certification. So that is that. Apologies to everyone in I Love AI who are like, what class? I didn't take this class. Um, this was specifically for our AI Leadership Institute members, but also gave— gives you a chance to kind of see some of the cool stuff that we're doing over there. Um, and like I said, we are gonna be doing Agentic AI. Uh, it used to be called Agentic AI for Beginners, but we shifted it to Agentic AI Practitioner cuz your whole goal is to Build and Use Agents Safely and Responsibly. Um, in that course, it'll be another kind of compressed session where we'll do it over the span of a week. We'll give you, uh, a weekend, uh, maybe two to go through because it's twice as long as the, the content that we, uh, did in this class. So we'll probably start on a Wednesday, then we go for two days, have a weekend, go for five days, have a weekend, go for three days. So it'll be fun. It'll be fun. I'll have fun. I hope you guys will too. Um, okay, awesome. So next, uh, next part, uh, let me stop sharing. So the next thing is, um, that I would love to share with you, of course, is the journey that I took in, um, in Macau. So I was asked to speak at MDRT. I don't know if anyone here is from MDRT, but MDRT, the Million Dollar Roundtable, they're a huge organization, tens of thousands of members, um, and Their— this event is their global conference. Ironically, they did their regional conference, um, or national conference here in Miami, but I didn't know them then, so I didn't get a chance to speak to those people. Uh, so they invited me to Macau. Macau was, um, home to 10,000 members, right? So they— the conference was 10,000 people. I was main stage session. I got to be on stage next to people like Jarek Robbins. I don't know if you know him, it's Tony Robbins's son. So cool. And, uh, this guy's name is Matthew Luhn. He, uh, is a Pixar storyteller. So all— he, he was the one— he owned up to being the one driving— anyone seen the movie Up? In the disastrous part of the beginning of that movie that makes like you just cry, really like openly weep? Um, good, I'm glad you saw it, Renee. Me too. Um, but he was the one who like— and he's— he talked about like the storytelling like techniques that they use in order to draw people in and make it memorable. And I will say that that definitely made that movie very memorable for me, like walking through that whole lifespan. And anyway, I won't spoil it for y'all. No spoilers for those of you who haven't seen it. It's definitely worth seeing. But he talked about like the storylines that they build in, you know, I don't know if you've seen a lot of Disney movies. I have a lot of kids, so I, but I will tell you, I was a Disney watcher long before I had kids. I think I had kids to validate my adult watching of Disney movies. The more the merrier. So I could go and we get the whole row. Um, But, but these stories were really very fascinating because I always could tell that there was an adult storyline woven into the child storyline and that that was intentional. So it was really cool to, to hear his story. My goal, very specifically, couple challenges I ran into. My goal was I had 20 minutes, so I had 20 minutes in which to impart on them all the things that are in my brain about how to build safe, responsible AI for their specific business. Insurance and financial planning. Majority of people were financial planners, um, and which of course I'm like, no problem, challenge accepted. But then, um, not only that, I also had to speak. Y'all know me, I speak a little bit fast. I'm a New Yorker at heart. I was born in Manhattan. Um, so I speak fast. And so I had to do this while live translators were translating what I was saying, in 4 languages. And which meant when I went in to do my, uh, tech check and they're like, just talk so we can get a sense of your pace. Anyone care to guess what they, the feedback I got immediately? They were like, whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down. And I was like, if I slow down, that means I'm only gonna, like, how much? Like, like if I use less words, that means I say less things. So all of a sudden I, I will just humbly let you know, I freaked out like the right after tech check, which was the day before my event. I looked at my husband, I'm like, there is no way I can not only say less in 20 minutes, but then also slow down and say less than less. I was like, what, what am I gonna even say? So I court, I worked my tail off that day. I could not sleep. I could barely like eat. I just sat and I wrote out like what I was gonna say. And I was like, what's the most important? And I think it's always good for us to do this, uh, now in hindsight, but I, like, what's the most important? If I only have 20 minutes, and really that ends up being like 15, 16 minutes because I have to slow my rate down so much, what do I say and how impactful can the things be that I say? And so I thought it would be, uh, interesting for you because some of you have heard me speak. Um, so I thought I would share with you, uh, oh, I don't know if I have it open, but let me open it real quick. I'm going to share with you the deck that I ended up going with, uh, which was is finely tuned. And then, uh, share with you how I— near— I won't do the talk, though I could. It was only 16 minutes, but, um, and I could probably do it in 7 talking at my normal speed. But I want to— let's see here, there it is. So I'll share it with you. And then, of course, Noelle Russell— I want to change my race car on race day all the time. So what that means is that I, I get to the event and I meet people, I'm like, oh, I should talk about this instead, and I wanna talk about this. And so I wanted to change my whole thing. And then I got up in front for the tech check and I was like, ah, no, I better just stick to what I'm promised. Um, okay, here we go. Oh, let me close out the share and reshare. Um, of course I started with my deepfake, which was very cool. I don't know if it was too fast. I didn't even think about it till afterwards. Um, but let me share.

Do, do, do.

Oh, there we go. I hope I hit the right— yeah, there we go. Okay, cool. So this, you know, you all have seen this. If not, it's on YouTube. Um, but this is a deepfake of me, right? Talking. Um, I'm going to mute it and just hit play so you can kind of see it, right? It does a little intro of me, says I have 6 kids, that I've worked for big companies. Um, but at the heart of it, I'm a good person and I really like care about their outcomes is basically what it says. So it's pretty cool. I built this a long time ago. I used HeyGen, so it's a chance to kind of just let them know, like, it's an introduction of me with a deepfake. So it instantly kind of sets the stage where they're like, wait, what? That was synthetic? So that allows me to kind of launch into my typical spiel. I can't say all the things. There's so many stories about why I do what I do, from my son to my dad, to being a mom of so many kids, to working at these amazing companies. So I had to laser focus. But luckily I actually had just, like last year I was in a competition called the Great American Speak Off. I don't know if any of you have heard of it or done it, but it was a, a huge competition where they were evaluating speakers and I was like, psh, I got this. I am like amazing. And I went there and I was extremely humbled because they weren't looking for speakers like me, who are, you know, I'm kind of an educator type speaker. I don't speak for emotional, like I'm not trying to like make people cry or make people wanna change their jobs or lives. Like I, I'm trying to educate people. I'm an advocate more than anything else anyway. And so when I, but I had to come up with a 2-minute speech and that 2 minutes ended up being exactly what I used to open this session, which was I started with my son. Led into that bringing me to Amazon, Amazon and the Jeff Bezos story, which some of you have heard. Jeff Bezos to Microsoft, Microsoft to baby tigers. And that led me, you know, basically to here. And that we are now seeing, right? The transition is that we're now seeing baby tigers become big tigers. And here's the good news, right? Is that when you invest a dollar into your baby tiger, for every dollar you invest, safely and responsibly, you'll get 3.7 back. And then I ceded that I would talk about these use cases later, right? So I couldn't talk about all these 'cause I only had a few minutes. So then I went into Poets and Jedis. Now this was my mistake because I didn't change my deck. Poets and Jedis is two frameworks that I talk about in a 45-minute keynote. In a 20-minute keynote where I'm speaking much more slowly, I don't got time for all that. So I never even mentioned JEDI. The number one question I had at speaker, uh, there was a speaker meet and greet where people could take pictures with me. It was so fun. Um, the number one question was, what is JEDI? And I was like, oh dang. So I left an open loop. It wasn't terrible, almost intentional. Maybe it was not intentional, but it, I think they thought it was intentional to get people to come ask me. Um, but yeah, so that was, that was unfortunate. And if you don't know what JEDI means, uh, it stands for AI Leaders Who Are focused on justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. So if you align yourself with those ideas, you can call yourself an AI Jedi too. We should create hoodies or something that say AI Jedi with like lightsabers and space buns, like Princess Leia. Dating myself. But I did focus on POET, but I couldn't do all the things. So I presented them the POET framework, which many of you have heard. If not, this is it. This is day 2 type stuff. So this is And this was requested by MDRT. They're like, our people already know AI. They've already heard about what it is. They understand the concept. What they're missing is why do they, what do they need to do right now and how do they get value right away? And so this is like, literally I'm at like minute 7 when I get to this slide. So almost halfway through my talk. So I then get to these use cases and luckily when I start saying, hey, You know, if you wanna build precision, like I, I focused on precision and trust, um, as my talking points and I was speaking very slowly. So I, it was, there wasn't a lot of, not just there wasn't a lot of fluff. There wasn't even a lot of meat. Like it was just like the scaffolding of what I typically would want people to understand. But this resonated with everyone is like, if you're gonna use something, and this has always been my best This is like my, my two golden slides, right? If I do anything people comment on or take pictures of, which is always a sign of good engagement, these are the two that they, they, they're like, oh my gosh, so good. Because it allows them to separate signal from noise, right? Like there's so many things you could do, but now I have, and even 16 is too many, right? Which is why I gracefully and gladly lead them to, but there are 10x use cases, right? There are use cases that will give you $10 for every dollar back, and I've highlighted those for you here. So success leaves clues, like just do the stuff that's specific, right, to your business. Now, I don't know if I did it in here. Let me see. Oh yeah, I didn't. Um, so I don't have them here, but I did. I'm gonna see if I can find, uh, the slide deck really quick. Remember I said I was gonna change the slide deck, so I created, but the benefit is I built that slide deck. So in my mind I had all the stories I wanted to tell, so I told them anyway. So at this point now I've given them these generic use cases that are proven to be successful, but what they really needed to know was what do they do as an insurance company, like as an insurance company leader, as an insurance provider, as an insurance agent, like what are the things they could do right now And that was the ultimate ask of the team, was to give them just very tangible walk away, get it done kinds of use cases. I'm gonna see if I can pull that up. I think it's this one. Oh, it— no, can't pull it up. It's on a USB.

Dang it.

Um, all right, maybe I have it here somewhere. I'm gonna see if I can find it. Oh, isn't that terrible when you accidentally save it to a resource? And, um, there it is. Maybe it's this one. No.

Okay.

Oh well.

All right. So I'll tell you what I told them. I wanted to show you kind of the evolution of thought, but it started with the deck of me kind of figuring out how do I show them this. But right, right on this slide, I start describing to them use cases that are specific to the insurance industry. And really, I don't know that they're specific to insurance, but they're problems every insurance company suffers from, which is number one, How do they get people who need an insurance company, like they, they're looking for a plan? How do you get them to find you first? Right? So that's a bit of branding, social media, getting the word out there, letting the, you know, letting YouTube and Google know you exist. So when somebody's like, I need an insurance, uh, agency near me, you're the one who shows up, right? So in one of the other, uh, programs that we run in the AI Leadership Institute is the AI Startup Accelerator. And the purpose of this is to get people clients for their companies. But one of the things that we do is just think through like, how do I, when, how do I get a client to raise their hand and say, hey, I would like you, I would like to buy what you do. Like, I would prefer that every time. I don't ever wanna be like, hey, buy my stuff. I'd much prefer people come and say, can I buy what you're selling? That's the best way to go, right? I'm doing, I'm, I'm promoting my value to the internet and people are like, hey, I want that. Can I buy that from you? And I'm like, absolutely, buy away. Right? I don't ever really wanna be that person who's like, hey, you know, I've gotta watch on the inside of my jacket. Which one do you want? Like, I don't, I don't wanna do that. So, and these are all like Noelle Russell Russell's mental pro— like blocks with sales, right? I'm like, I don't wanna be a seller cuz I don't wanna be that person. But the reality is, is I sell all the time. I'm always selling ideas on how to build safely and responsibly. I'm always selling the idea that baby tigers become big tigers. Like, I'm selling ideas to people every single day. Uh, but for whatever reason, I created this like image of, you know, a person selling product. Uh, and so the way that I got around that, I was like, you know what, I'm just gonna demonstrate and give so much value and then let people know that I can help them with those things. And that's what ended up happening, how most of you ended up getting here, as a matter of fact. So, um, so the use cases that I, decided to focus on were lead, uh, generation use cases, um, and marketing use cases, of course. Um, but also on the backend document intelligence use cases, right? Because insurance specifically is very documentation heavy. And this is where I use, for those of you who took the AI, um, AI, uh, Solution Architect course, like one of the AI Builder, which is part of Power Automate. In Microsoft, when you go to Power Automate, AI, the Power Builder tool has an AI hub and there's like, I don't know, 10, maybe 16 AI models that you can use. But quite a few of them are around document intelligence. And now it's a little bit cooler because let's say 5 years ago, when you use this model, its job would be to, with 100% accuracy, it could read, right? Like a, passport or driver's license, it could read the document and then it could extract the text and stick it wherever you wanted in an app, in a CRM, right? A customer relationship management system. It could put it wherever you wanted. But the benefit was if someone gave you their ID, you didn't have to type any names or, or addresses. Like it would just extract that information and put it in the system automatically. Today, however, there's a new feature and I'm actually got, not approval, but, the principal PM of content intelligence, his name's Vinod. He reached out to me and said, I would love to come and talk to your community about this new capability in this model. So he's gonna be our guest. And I've never done that before, but when a principal PM at Microsoft comes and says he wants to talk about AI, like we should do that. So I'll invite him on. And we will, we'll talk about the new advancements. But now in addition to document intelligence, which means it knows what the fields are, can extract the data, it actually has content intelligence, which means it can go onto that document and it can look at the seal and make an association with the country that that seal's from. Or it can look at the color of the document and identify if the color is significant, right? If it's like pink for customer, green for, office. The other thing that I think is really interesting is it also provides the ability to just get, uh, more detail. So for example, let's say I give it, um, I'm doing a computer vision project and I take a picture of like, it's insurance, right? So I take a picture of a tree that fell on my car 2 years ago, 3 years ago when you used the AI Builder model and you gave it a picture of a tree falling on a car and you handed it in, it would say, tree, car. It might say like accident or crash, but that's about it, right? Like it, it only knows these like large generalities. When you hand it to a content intelligence system, right? It now, not only does it look at the tree, it goes tree. I don't know any trees, but it would tell you the tree, like fir tree, maple tree. Oh, I do know some trees. Right? But it would give you the make and model of the car, especially if it was visible. And it would tag it, right? It would give you, um, the details. And if you, of course, custom train this model, you can actually assign prices to each one of these things, right? So if it's a car windshield, you could assign a $350 price tag. So it now creates this ability to have content intelligence inform a potential quote. Now, I will tell you, I've worked in insurance and AI for a very long time. We don't do AI-generated quotes. But it does help surface information, auto-tagging content in a picture that allows us to create those quotes much more quickly. It can create suggestions that we as the humans adopt. And at the end of the day, the way that we protect ourselves against models making like assumptions and, and choices about that is that we set what are called thresholds. So on these models, you're gonna set a threshold for what good and what bad looks like.. And in like insurance, for example, we might want to have a very high threshold of accuracy before we say how much something's gonna cost to fix, right? Because that's gonna cost us money if we get it wrong, or worse, lose the trust of our client if we overcharge them, right? So, so we'll want a human in the loop in that case. But in some other cases, like e-commerce and looking at, you know, products, right? If somebody takes a picture of a purse, We might be liberal in how many different varieties of that picture of purses in our inventory we decide to show them, right? That means that the correlation between what they're seeing and what they end up getting suggested to them, like, it's gonna be looser, not as strict, right? So a high threshold means it has to be exactly what I say, 99% confident that this is the same thing versus a low threshold which says, ah, it's fine. If it's not exactly the same, it can be close, right? It can be, it can be similar, right? Similar versus exact. But here's the, the reason this is so important is that that choice is yours, right? As the AI engineer, solution architect, as the person picking the model and doing this development, the choice is yours to decide what is exact and what is similar. Where are those thresholds for every single model output?. And most companies, they don't even ask the question. They don't even know what thresholds are, which is why this skill set is so interesting. So that's what I ended up sharing with them is the importance of, I think the rest is pretty generic. Yeah. So the importance of these specific use cases, I talked to them about use AI. Oh yeah, one thing I did talk to them about, let me go ahead and stop sharing and share my computer really quick. And then we're about to dive in. So needless to say, today we might be talking a little bit about Document Intelligence and Content Intelligence. We'll see. Let's see here. Oh, awesome. Oh my gosh, such a great question, Renee. I'm going to come back to that, but it's such a good question because it is intentional and I had to do more than one take. So I will come back to that. What was I going to show you? Oh darn, I forgot what I was saying. What was I gonna show you? I get so excited, so distracted. Document intelligence content. Yes. And now let's see. It's one of these things here. Oh yeah, here we go. Luckily I have a, oh cool. Okay. Every session I would like to mention new tools that I'm using. So this is my newest cool tool. It is called the AI Pendant. You can just type in AI Pendant into your favorite Google search bar. Um, it is by Limitless, so you could wear it. It also is a magnetic thing, so it will just snap to your clothes. It records everything, every— like, everything you say to it. It also has the ability— there's a little button, so you can— let's say you say something interesting that you want to remember, you can click the button like now, and it will put a star. It basically stars that part of the conversation so you can go back to it later. It ingests puts all of this transcript information into what they're calling a Life Blog. Is it a Life Blog? I might have gotten that wrong. Hold on. Life Log. My bad. Life Log. Um, so it's a Life Log, and so at any time I can go back to any point in the conversation. But here's the cool thing, is that I don't really need to see the transcripts ever, really. I don't really want to know how many times I said, um, or any of that. Uh, but it has Ask Limitless, and that ask capability is grounded in the transcripts of my own conversations. So I can go back and be like, hey, I said to this person that I needed to do a thing. Do you remember the thing I said I needed to do and what time I said I needed to do it? Um, and soon that will turn into an agentic, uh, request, right? That I can use to actually have it set a task for me or have it create a calendar invite for me. Doesn't do that yet, but I could see where they're going. Yeah, it's interesting, Javier. Um, so anyway, and I didn't buy this because I wanted it. I buy it because on, for you all. This is why I tell my husband, I buy it for them because I wanna test this out for you guys.

Okay.

I buy it for me, but, uh, it's cool tech and I don't really need to have a transcriber of my entire life. Um, but I'm gonna try it out, see what happens. Uh, it'll definitely become a demo we do, but it's $100, right? So we'll see what happens. It's pretty cheap. Um, it seems pretty useful. I don't know. We'll see. Uh, the biggest challenge I think I have is in transparency when you're transcribing people's conversations. Like you all know you're being recorded, like we told you, but like if I'm wearing this, right? I don't know how many, I know several of you have thought through this. Like when you walk up to somebody, are you now like, by the way, you're in my LifeLog, so I'm gonna be recording everything you say. I don't know.

I don't know.

So I'm right now only using it like in my office. And every conversation I have is typically recorded, so I don't have that conflict. But I'm pretty sure the intent of this device is that you wear it everywhere and it captures everything about everything. So we'll see. I don't know. It's kind of interesting though, cuz we do grateful fors, um, at, at night at dinner. Um, and we just added a new thing, your happiest moment of the day, where everyone goes around and says what they're grateful for. And what their single happiest moment of the day is. And it's beautiful and I love it. It's my favorite part of the day. Um, and so it would be interesting to have that captured and then do a little analysis on, uh, on my kiddos. Uh, I don't know, do I have to disclose to my children? Probably, right? I don't know. Ethics 101. Um, all right, awesome. So, uh, yeah, it captures everyone. Yes, the other person too. So let me go back to the, um, The question— oh yeah, really quick.

Okay.

I'm just looking at this. Okay, cool. So one thing— oh, I wanted to answer this question from— oh, I see you, Marion, so I'll come back to you. But from Renee around HeyGen. So HeyGen, and I will go ahead and share my screen so you all can see for those of you not familiar with Hey Jen, um, do not be alarmed by my calendar that's going to show immediately upon sharing. Um, hey Jen, have empathy, I guess. Um, here we go. Hopefully it'll sign me in, otherwise I'll just flip tabs to where I'm signed in already. Come on, cookies, do your magic.

I will say, Noelle Russell, this is Renee Russell. Um, so working with my clients that I'm doing this for, uh, It's like working with a bride.

Yeah.

If you like, they're like, I don't look good enough. That's not my voice. Like, where? Why? I want new clothes. But more than anything, I'm worried about, like, getting their eyes and their teeth right because they keep smiling. And I told them not to smile in their pictures.

Yes.

But, and I listen to the engineers and I even get on. I have all the Directions, and I use the Avatar 4, and I use the regular. I like go back and forth, like, you know, just to work. And some, some of them turn out great, but I would like to get more consistency so I'm not only making 50 cents an hour, right?

Right, exactly. Because exactly, the more time you spend, right, it's like, it like eats away. Um, and so The— you're right, there are, um, techniques on actually recording. It doesn't look like I'm going to be allowed in here. Oh wait, maybe that— no, that's Loom. Um, let me try one more thing. Hey Jen, I feel like that was where it was. I'm gonna try one more. Maybe it's in my— oh, there we go.

Let me in.

No, no, let me in. Uh, it won't let me in.

I don't remember.

Maybe it's— I think maybe it's this one.

Let's just see.

Oh my gosh, it might be working!

Yay!

Okay, yeah, and I'm sorry to deviate, but this is so important, and you did talk about Hagen in the class.

I did, I did. Um, no, it's— no, it's not too deviating at all, uh, and it's a great tool. And I did— I even brought this up in MDRT because this is one of the— like, almost everyone other than the 10% of people that enjoy public speaking and enjoy being on camera, like Everyone else is like, if I could avoid that, that would be better. So there's a couple things. One, when I, um, so I'll show you my avatars. Um, so this— oh goodness. So this avatar here, um, is what you said, like, it's not great. My teeth are weird, my, like, my facial expressions are off. Um, it would not end up— I wanted it to create one of a Muppet of me, but it, it wouldn't do that. Um,, but I think there's one up here. Yeah. So this is my, this is the avatar I used for the keynote one, but I have also used like every time I always tell people, every time you look cute, go and create an avatar. So I was like, oh, I look cute today. So I created an avatar and this one's not terrible. Um, let's play.

Yeah, that's your hyper-realistic.

Yeah. Hyper-realistic. Yes, exactly.

Creating videos.

It's not terrible.

Um, no, it's good.

What, so first thing, um, is that Yes, like mannerisms. Um, I mean, I'm, you all know I'm pretty animated when I talk, so I literally have to be like, hmm, no animation, no head movement. Um, cuz otherwise it will take whatever those are and put them in in the wrong time, like the wrong space. And even if you give it gesture, um, and I actually think it's worse, it's worse if you try to give it gesture controls cuz then it forces those gestures in at times it thinks is the right place and it just looks so, so awful. So what I ended up doing for like this one, And I, and it like, you can tell, like my hands are like, I tell people like, put your hands in your pockets. Like do not talk with your hands because those hands are gonna show up in inappropriate, like not at the right time. Um, and then also like, it's almost like when you're, if you were gonna record yourself listening to a call or B-roll for being on CNBC, which is kind of where I learned it, like they record you so that they can splice in other people and they're like, just stare at the camera. And they're like, but don't smile, don't nod, don't laugh. Because when they use that content, it, it may not be appropriate if you're laughing or smiling, right? Like, so you have to think about that from the AI perspective as well. It's like, I mean, it's fine to be Mona Lisa smile kind of, you know, like jovial or whatever, but you don't wanna be like actively, you know, smiling, smiling the whole time. Otherwise it, especially if you're not talking about things that are happy. I talk about mostly happy stuff, so it works for me, but most brands it doesn't. So I ended up, um, So I did, uh, yeah, that's why. So this one is actually, I wonder if it has the date on it. It doesn't, but this one I did over a year ago and even the ones that I've created since then, I don't love as much as this one. Um, and that was a year ago, but I think it wasn't about the AI model. The AI model is actually better now. What it was is that I was much more controlled in, oh, the other trick. And again, you're having your clients do this, so it's tough. But closing their mouths, like after a sentence, closing their mouths and even forcing them to do it. Be like, the first 3 sentences, say the, say the sentence, close your mouth, say the sentence, close your mouth. Um, because if you don't do that, it, the, the model never knows how to like end the sentence. So that's where you get a lot of that weird behavior.

Yeah.

And I did figure that out at first and I actually said, okay, I'm coming to your house, I'm going to do this. Vidi, I'm going to record you.

Yes, that's what I literally did. But, uh, but then you need to like amp up your prices. Like, this is premier concierge service.

Well, the thing of— yeah, I'll, I think I'll figure that out next time. I'm making $1 every 2 hours now, but that's okay. It's, it's like lesson learned.

That's right.

And they're good.

I mean, all of these are portfolio builders, right? So as you get it right, yeah, yeah, you'll definitely make it back. The other thing though is to consider using an avatar, right? So you could use an existing avatar, something like, I like these, like these, like cartoon avatars where it's not expected to be human, but it still can represent whatever it is that you're trying to say. But you can also use human avatars as well. These work very well. They're like, um, and these are all of them. But if I look at the UGCs, these are like random people in their own, these, these perform extremely well with social because it's a third party talking about the company. So now you're moving everything that you would have said in first person to third person. Um, but what I also like is that HeyGen pays these people, so they are valued creators that are paid on contract to be the voice and, uh, look, uh, and voice of what you want to deliver. So I feel like there's some ethical goodness there, um, that they actually value the creators that they have and they pay them appropriately.

That's awesome. I think I've made $0.75 on my ElevenLabs voice.

Hey, there's that.

Hey, I post photo tips, you guys, so just check them out. I can give you some tips.

Awesome. Thank you. Did you put that in the chat?

Or you could—

Noelle, can I ask you a question about HeyGen?

Yes.

Have you tried to use HeyGen as avatar to connect to an agent, let's say FlowWise agent, who generates the talks, the discussion, and the avatar is just lip-syncing, so to speak, the Flowwise content created.

Yes, absolutely. Is this Sophie?

Yes.

I'm sorry, I didn't see your hand. I just saw it in the top of my screen. Okay, good. But yeah, absolutely you could. So this is an example of the new Avatar 4. And if you do, do, do, do, do. So let me, I think, do I even have, I don't think I have anything for it to say.

Maybe I do.

No, I don't have any scripts. Um, I'm trying to see. I know I've built other avatars, so let's go back and look at my projects, which are down here. Um, oh yeah, here it is. Here's an Avatar 4 video. Oh, you're gonna love this. So I, I asked it to do something with my face, like I— oh no, you know what it was? My original picture, I was to the side, so it did not have a full, like, forward view of my face, so it had to synthesize my face. So let's just, for fun, let's just take a look at what it looks like. It's a little, it's a little weird. Um, like, I don't know, but if I gave this to a stranger, I don't know that they would say anything, right? Like, I'm not sure. It's like got a little uncanny valley to me. Um, but this is because, going back to Renee's challenge, like this is because the input wasn't good. Like my picture was not great. Let's see if— I don't know if you can see the original picture I gave it. No, you can't. But I mean, I feel like that could go viral right there.

It's fun to play with for sure.

Oh, Lordy. So needless to say, I didn't build content with that one. However, the last pose. Yes, this one, right?

This one was actually the most natural. And this is why I wanted to ask you, did you do this one from a still?

Yes. However, this still is AI generated. So that's okay.

I do that too. Okay.

Yeah.

So this is like, this is my LinkedIn picture. So it's a LinkedIn headshot, but the headshot is an AI headshot. So I gave it a bunch of pictures and it generated headshots for me. And so, but I think there's, there's some magic to that, right? Because we're using an AI still and then the AI is now automating that. So I feel like it has more, I don't know, pixel level control.

I don't know.

Um, but yeah, I'll let you guys see it. This was pretty good. Let's build something awesome. Oh yeah, oh yeah, I demonstrated you to this. Oh, let me— I mean, it's not terrible considering it was a sync, like a still picture. So now potentially, Renee, you do, you know, photo shoot, right? Yeah, you have a photo shoot with them. Um, you use that photo shoot not as the original data. You take that and put it into an AI to create an AI headshot. That's complimentary and good lighting. And then you use the headshots here. I mean, obviously, yeah, I actually did that with the woman.

It's a, it's the 4 company, a 4-person company. But with the woman, I did that. I took, I put all her pictures in the headshot. I think it's like headshot.io. Yeah, it comes out with like 100 pictures and I got the ones that looked like her. But I'll tell you this funny story. The, the husband took his own pictures in bright sunlight. Like 30 of them in front of his garage. Yes. I was like, okay, I need to come take your pictures. But anyway, it's just really fun. It's just funny. But this one was the one that made me want to ask you the most. And so that makes perfect sense that you used it because I've done that with my own too. Yeah, I've had people say, oh, you look too good. I'm like, I don't care. I love looking good.

Exactly. You're welcome. Yeah, I— and maybe— oh my gosh, it's already 5:00. So I want us to spend a few minutes getting to know each other., and just breaking out. Maybe we, I guess you could, uh, I always like to give you something to talk about. Um, maybe it would be like your, your opinion since we ended on the HeyGen thing. Like, what do you think about this synthetic stuff? Right? Like, especially cuz we have some artists in the room, right? We have some creators, some photographers. Uh, I don't know. It's interesting. Like I, as you saw, I definitely use it on my content. Oh, the last thing for the two of you, um, that were asking about this in the chat. In it, in addition to building it here, I take it into Captions on my phone. In Captions on my phone, I can add like B-roll and it basically doesn't make the, the talking avatar the, the main story, right? It, that becomes kind of the background of this avatar talking, but it overlays B-roll of the things that I'm saying. And I think that way you're, you know, it's not like the avatar's the only thing, right? It ends up being like colors and The— it's called— what is it called? Template AI or something like that. But inside Captions, there is two options, manual and AI, for building out these videos. And so that I— that is how I think combining them two together, you can create really, really good content that doesn't necessarily need to be you. Roseanne, nice to see you. Hello.

It's been a while.

A few. I feel like I, I follow your posts on LinkedIn, so I feel like we, we talk every day.

Well, welcome back.

Yes, thank you.

I was out for a few days with the good old COVID, so I am way behind. But one of the things I'm way behind on is I see I'm not the only person. I still have not gotten into Copilot Studio.

Okay.

I can get into Azure Foundry. I could get to the dashboard for Power Apps, but I couldn't do anything.

Okay, I will. So yes, so you'll need new credentials. So I basically everyone who was on that call that day, I just kind of stayed and gave everyone manual credentials. So there's a— yeah, you must be on the list. Sherilyn just sent me a list of people who weren't able, and that's why, because you weren't there. Okay, makes sense. Okay, but yeah, so it's just a new credential. Roseanne@ailleadershipinstitute.com, and it'll have a new password. So I'll just send that to you today, and you will be okay.

Yeah.

All right.

Because Copilot Studio is what's really getting me jazzed. I want to get in there.

Yeah, exactly. Now, I will tell you that everyone who goes in there— not everyone, but a few people— like, as long as your idea is small enough, Copilot Studio will be fine. But if you have big, big ideas, you're going to immediately be like, I can't do nothing in here, and you're going to want to go to Foundry. So just be aware of that, that it is— I mean, it's limited for a reason, right? It's meant for Biz Apps users. It's not meant for technical people. Which is perfect in most cases, but sometimes you're gonna wanna push the edge of what's possible. So just know that's why you have all 3, is to give you the ability to kind of feel it out, see if you can do what you can do in this platform. And if you can't, then you always have AI Foundry to go and, and go crazy.

Okay. Yeah. Because Copilot's gonna be my platform right now because that's what we're doing at work.

Oh, yeah.

And like you saw in my post, we're in the Microsoft world and they're dragging their feet. As far as AI. So Copilot Studio, when you said we had access, I was so excited. Yeah. And then when you told me that I could get free access at work, I was doubly excited.

Absolutely. Yeah. So you'll be in my tenant. So but it'll— yes, you will. You'll love it. I can't wait to see what you build. Let us know if you have any questions. That's awesome.

Okay. Thank you.

Yes, you're welcome. All right. I'm just going through. Oh, yeah, I see that. Okay, cool. Oh, a bunch of people. Oh, yeah. I see why you said that now. Yeah, so Sherilyn just gave me a bunch of lists of people who are not— not a bunch. I mean, there was 200 people in this class, but there's like 20 people left, I think, that need access to Copilot. But everyone should have access to Azure because I added you all manually. But yeah, I will get you access to that for those of you who are here, and Sherilyn will help me keep track of you all. Oh yeah, absolutely, Evelyn. Will do.

Will do.

Okay, cool. Okay, so hey, Jen. All right. So I feel like we talked about a couple things, right? One, building for insurance companies. If you are an insurance company, that's a cool thing to talk about. And the importance, I think, of meeting people where they are, right? So, so for me, as much as I wanted to talk about all sorts of things, I always try to think, and this is true for this, this call too, though today was more of like a recap and catch, catch up and get back into the, the swing of things. But I always try and think like, who's gonna be on this call? Like, how do we, that's why when you join the I Love AI community, I ask you 3 questions. One is, do you have the book? So I can, if you have the book, I'll give you a free class. And then if you, uh, and, and your email address so I can reach out to you and say, hey, we're doing cool new stuff. But the most important question is the last question, which is like, what is one question you can get answered, um, here? Like what, what would be, uh, one question that this community could help you solve for. So I always like to— and before we jump in, I'm just going to share with you the latest question from our latest member. Um, and I don't know if they're here, uh, but our latest member asked this question. Uh, her name's Colleen. Colleen, are you here? I don't think so. Um, but usually— I mean, when she just joined, so usually they don't even know that this is a thing, that they can join a call. Um, so, but her question was on building, of course, AI agents. And so I wanted to give you a couple of things that you can do. It's free to start. But the reason I'm going to encourage you to do it now, this is what we do in our class. But in light of that not happening for another 3 weeks, in order to get your kind of, I don't know, feet wet, if you will, I want to give you access to curriculum Microsoft developed. And we built our class based on this.. But if you wanted to do it yourself and not have any coaching, not get access to any platforms for building, I want to give this to you. It's a GitHub repo. Um, but you don't, I don't think you need to have a membership to, oh no, it's gonna force me to sign in. Ooh, send SMS. I don't, oh my gosh.

All right.

So one of the bad things that happened in China is my phone got destroyed. Um, and not intentionally nefarious people, like no one came and destroyed it or threw it. I, uh, I took it into the spa and it did not recover from that. So, um, I'm gonna see if it works though. I just got a new one today. Um, okay, cool. Okay, okay, okay, let me in. If it lets me in, I'll log in, but otherwise I'll just Google it really quick. Oh my gosh, It's taking me through the whole thing. No. So I'm just going to Google, um, it was called Agentic AI for Beginners, and I'll give you the URL so you can go look it up. So this just helped Colleen, but obviously if you all are interested in this as well, um, it incur— oh, there you go. Um, right-click and copy link. There we go. Where's our chat? Here we are. Oh, well, I didn't really get it fixed, but I will tell you it was kind of a blissful 8 days because I did not wake up and check my phone. And that was weird for me. I almost always, and judge me if you will, but I almost always wake up and check my phone. And so for the last week, I have not woken up and checked my phone. And I don't know, it's kind of liberating. I was like, wow, I don't actually need to know anything that happened as soon as I wake up. Right, Evelyn? These habits, they just kind of sneak up on you and you don't realize it until it's gone. I'm like, wow, I don't I don't need to do that. Um, okay, cool.

All right.

Awesome. Why you did a video review, Renee? That's amazing.

Thank you.

Um, awesome. So I will make sure— I think you have access to that class already, but I'll make sure you do. Um, okay. I threw it in there. So if you take a look at this site, um, it's basically, it'll walk you through. They have videos. I'm not going to say anything about them. I'm a video person. I like teaching, uh, But it's— Corey's a good guy. You can find him on LinkedIn. He will friend you. He's super nice. So if you are looking and it says beginner, I will just caution you. Everyone who took our Agentic AI for Beginners course will tell you it's not so much for beginners, but if you wanna get started right away, this is a great way to get started learning how to build agents, um, learning what they are, how to use them, why they're important, the protocols, all of that. We have an Agentic AI for Practitioners that takes a different approach to the same concept. But makes it accessible to everyone. This is very much an engineering approach, but some of us are like that. So, so I offer it to you. I hope you enjoy it. Um, all right, awesome. I wasn't sharing my screen, but I was talking as if I was, so sorry about that. But, uh, but it's there. All right, so for the last few minutes, let's get together and have a fun conversation.

You—

I mean, really, I, I love for you to introduce yourself. Um, and the way I typically encourage you to do that is just use this time every single week, use this time to practice what you would say if you meet somebody. Like if you meet someone brand new, it's good to have a one-liner, maybe two-liner that says, here's who I am. I'm Noelle Russell. Here's what I do. I help people do X. I help people in, in career transition learn AI and how you do it in a special way. And I do that through my AI Leadership Institute and our free community, I Love AI. And the benefit of being able to say something like that, I help this person do this thing with my special thing. The benefit of being able to have that conversation is people will, people who are your people will lean in and be like, wait, what'd you say? I'm a person in transition. I just, I just left my job. I just had someone on Mindvalley. They were like, I'm 50 and just got laid off and I don't know what to do 'cause I haven't looked for a job in 20 years. And I was like, I know you, you're my people, right? So That's what you wanna do is like be very succinct in who you are, who you serve, and how you serve them. And as quickly as you can say it so that people can lean in and message you and be like, hey, can I get on a call with you? Like, oh my gosh, you do the thing I need help with. That's the goal. If you have 11 seconds with somebody, how will you spend it? Like let them know how you can help them, how you can serve them. That is my philosophy. I think it's a good idea. I'm gonna let y'all Go and try it. And then while you're in the breakout rooms, I'd encourage, like, let me know, what do you think? What do you think about this, this Heijian stuff? Like, are you for or against synthetic media? Oh my gosh, this is a bit of a fight we're about to start here. But I'm going to throw you all into breakout rooms. If you can't join a breakout room, do not worry. Just, it's fine.

You could go.

I'll just bring everybody back at the end and say goodbyes. On Friday, we'll be back at our normal time. But we will be doing a poll to find out what better times are based on our group of people here. And then, oh yeah. Oh my gosh, absolutely, Javier, go for it. I just threw the first thing that came to my mind. Thank you. Yeah, so Javier, he works in the space and is one of our experts, one of the people that I also look to and follow on LinkedIn. So please connect with him. But these are a couple other really good resources. So yes, please do. The last thing I'll tell you before we break out is there is there's 3 dots in the chat, um, in the— like, if you break out the little chat window, there's little 3 dots. You can save the chat at any time. What that allows you to do is throw that chat into ChatGPT or similar and ask it to pull out all the links, ask it to pull out all the LinkedIn, uh, connections, like all of that. Um, it'll even— if you have agent mode, it'll even look up people on LinkedIn for you and connect with them for you. So little, little flex there. All right, so I'm going to Throw y'all into a room. Let's see. All right, if you see a bot in your room, I will do my best to remove that bot quickly, but don't worry. And, uh, yeah, are you ready? Oh, oh, no worries. We'll see you later, Javier. Thanks for the resources. You're awesome, right? Like, what a way to go out. Like, here's some cool stuff, everybody. Bye. All right, but let's get to know each other. It's my favorite part of the session. Um, so let's just spend 10 minutes, uh, everyone in room, introduce yourselves. I'll say the shortest hair person maybe can lead the pack and get everyone started. And then I'll give you an over-the-air announcement, which I love to do, that will let you know when there's 2 minutes left, and hopefully everyone will have a chance to talk to each other. All right, all right, let's do it. Ready, break. Just say yes, click the button. All right, move to I'm going to move it here. I might have to move y'all. All right, let me go down to room 7 and move Tara. You're going to room 3. And Juliana— Noelle Russell, just use Sandrine, not Sandrine Wujinga, because I'm out of the house.

So—

Oh, I see. Yeah, okay, okay, no worries. I will do that. Um, move to 7. I'm just managing note takers, kicking them over to Room 7. Um, all right, we look good, look good, looks good. Um, yeah, I don't know about Sanjeans, but all right, here we go. Room 7. Okay. Oh, there we go. Oh no, that's 1, 2, 3, 4. There are people who have note takers and are not here. What? That is not cool, man. Um, all right, uh, Kishan and Evelyn, I'm moving you guys because you're all— unless you guys want to chat by yourselves.

I'll be leaving you because it's late here and I'm super tired.

Yes, of course, but thank you so much.

I'll be back next time. Thank you.

Of course, and we'll do it earlier so you don't have to be up so late. Thank you so much for joining us. We'll see you soon. Okay, there. Hopefully— I think we're good. All right, did some of you not say yes? Why are you all here? Oh, I didn't open the rooms yet. Like, why is everybody still hanging out? Oh my goodness. But they're all organized now. Um, but that was supposed to happen on the fly. Oh well, have fun.

See you soon.

I'll jump into one. Oh, I put Sandrine in the same room. All right, note taker, note taker. Williams, Sandrine, I'm gonna move you guys to room 4. Uh-oh. And move to room 4. Don, did you get a request?

Are you going?

Are you gonna hang out with me?

I got— yeah, I was gonna hang out. Have a question for you. All right, tonight's stuff. Awesome.

There we go. All right, room 3 is empty. Everyone looks good. Room 1 is good. Room 2 is good. Room 3 has 4. Room 5 is good. All right, all right, hold on, Don. All right, thank you for joining us on LinkedIn Live and YouTube and Facebook and Instagram. Uh, we'll see you on Friday
