Will the rise of AI mark the end of human ingenuity, or will it unlock new levels of creativity and progress? Join us for a riveting conversation on how artificial intelligence is not just reshaping the future of branding and marketing, but questioning the core of our existence. In our latest mastermind session, we delve into content creation's new era, where a few clicks can give birth to a video, and ponder whether the dawn of superintelligence will outshine human intellect. We don't shy away from the tough questions – what happens to jobs in an AI-dominated landscape, and how does society shift to accommodate this tectonic change?

Imagine an AI so advanced that it could make decisions for the greater human welfare – but what moral compass would it use, ours or its own? In this episode, we explore the philosophical quandaries and complex nature of humanity as we stand on the precipice of an AI evolution that could redefine our purpose. As we discuss Elon Musk's self-driving vehicles and reflect on the transformation of education in the smartphone era, we also consider the disruptive potential of AI on established systems and the necessity of embracing these changes for future success.


We finish with a look at AI's profound impact on business and society, sharing practical examples of AI-driven growth and the importance of integrating AI into our operations. From leveraging AI in brainstorming to creating foundational business documents, we emphasize that those not harnessing AI's capabilities risk falling behind. Join us as we navigate this thrilling journey, align ourselves with the future of AI, and, just maybe, share a laugh about becoming its loyal supporters in a world it may one day govern. Don't miss this episode, where we offer a glimpse into an AI-driven world that's not just coming – it's already here.

Speaker 1:

How do you reckon?

Speaker 2:

AI is going to help you in business now.

Speaker 1:

There's this. I don't know what the term exactly is, but they refer to it as like the peak curve or something like that, and it's where, okay, cool humans are innovating now and they're teaching AI how to get better.

Speaker 2:

Well, I was dead set, blown away by some of the shit you were talking about yesterday as well.

Speaker 1:

It was the first time I'd heard about it. Eventually, we're going to hit a point where AI starts innovating. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

It may not be bulletproof, though you might start using it and giving it a go and it might not be as good as it sort of claims itself to be. But here's the thing with AI it's continuously improving. Welcome back to Million Dollar Days. I hope you are having a million dollar day.

Speaker 2:

I thought I was going to finish your sentence there for a moment. I was waiting for you. I left a big enough to finish his sentence there for a moment. I was well, I was waiting for you. I left a big enough gap there for you to to come in and say something, but you actually did it. We're at a special venue today. Yeah, we're live on location. We've got a live studio audience as well, so you might hear some cheering, some chanting, some George, some George.

Speaker 1:

George, some eating, some eating some kitchens. You reckon you can see the beach shot in the background?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I reckon you could. I reckon so. If you're watching this on YouTube or any other platform, you'll probably see the beach in the background. So we are at one of my training events. We're doing a mastermind on branding and marketing at Builder Elite, and something that we have discussed pretty much at length over the last day or so yesterday was artificial intelligence, and we wanted to touch on that. We've been meaning to touch on it for quite some time, but we never actually got around to it. Now it got around to us. That's it. So you guys are going to get you're in for a treat. Now, this isn't my forte. This isn't an area of expertise for myself. However, you have done a lot of research on it and I can provide comments. So I'll let you talk for the rest of the podcast and I'm just going to sit here.

Speaker 1:

Talk about being thrown under the bus? Yeah, cool. So we obviously did. We've been here for the last couple of days and a portion of our presentation yesterday was about AI and sharing where it's going and what it's become and some of the things that most people aren't aware of that you can actually use it for, and the feedback from some of the guys was it was very eye-opening and we gave them an insight that they hadn't seen and we barely touched on. Like I'm far I'll preface everything by saying I'm far from an AI expert. Yeah, yeah, we use it as a tool. We're marketers. Yeah, yeah, we use it as a tool. We're marketers.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we use it as a tool. Well, I was dead set, blown away by some of the shit you were talking about yesterday as well. It was the first time I'd heard about it. Yeah, and one of the best ones that I saw was the one where you uploaded a video onto. I can't remember what it was called, but you uploaded a 15 minute video and AI automatically split that video into micro content 30 second, 15 second, one minute pieces of content, added captions, flipped between the two speakers as well, and did that in 15 minutes. And I sat there and I said, holy shit, and it was like three clicks. You were literally going to go home tonight and fire three of your VAs that have been doing all this content, cutting up for us and going. I actually don't need you anymore. Someone has replaced your job for $19 a month.

Speaker 1:

That's not true, because they're going to be editing this, hi guys, thank you so much for all your efforts.

Speaker 2:

We really appreciate it. Yeah, this is your notice. This is your notice. Two weeks notice begins now. But yeah, look it definitely-. Look, it may not be bulletproof, though. You might start using it and giving it a go, and it might not be as good as it sort of claims itself to be. But here's the thing with AI it's continuously improving, and correct me if I'm wrong it's improving itself.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think it is not yet, not yet.

Speaker 2:

Not to the point, where Isn't?

Speaker 1:

that GPT like that, though, doesn't it learn from every question that's ever asked of it? Yeah, so humans are innovating now, right, and there's this I don't know what the term exactly is, but they refer to it as like the peak curve or something like that and it's where, okay, cool Humans are innovating now and they're teaching AI how to get better, but eventually, we're going to hit a point where AI starts innovating. There's this I don't know what the term exactly is, but they refer to it as like the peak curve or something like that and it's where, okay, cool Humans are innovating now and they're teaching AI how to get better, but eventually, we're going to hit a point where AI starts innovating, and then it's going to innovate at a level that we can't even keep up with as humans.

Speaker 1:

Have you heard the term universal basic income? No, okay, so look this up, because it's kind of cool, kind of scary, but they talk about universal basic income, and it's AI is going to take off so quickly that we're not going to be able to keep up. Yeah, we're going to become somewhat irrelevant to it. It's going to start doing everything for everyone. Yeah, and it's talking about universal basic income, because how do we make money, we add value to the world. Well, what happens when we can't add any more value because AI does everything? Yeah Well, everyone's going to get the same wage and we're going to be given money to live. What the fuck? Yeah, it's called universal basic income. It's like you can't make more money than someone else now because AI does everything for everyone.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, building game, because I reckon that would have to be one of the last places to get hit. I get it there's these machines that do this shit but at the same token, I don't. It's definitely not at that level where robots are laying bricks or doing something architectural. There's still that skill set there and I think it'll be like that for quite some time what's?

Speaker 2:

quite some time, 15 months it'll be like that a little while. Okay, why don't I like what you're saying. I like where that's going, as far as it's amazing to think that that's a possible thing. It pisses me off a bit, but it's amazing to think that it's a possibility in the future. And it's scary too, because it's like a boot doesn't concern itself with the opinion of an ant. A what A boot? A boot a shoe yeah. Doesn't concern itself with the opinion of an ant okay, a boot, a boot a shoe yeah. Doesn't concern itself with the opinion of an ant okay. As in if you step on an ant right now, if you walk outside and step on an ant, do you like? Does the world end that? Do you lose your mind? You go home, cry yourself to sleep? Do you get put on social media for wiping out an ant or an ant colony, whatever it it might be? No, you don't. So would it ever get to a point where AI is like that, where it's no, we're going to it's like oh, we killed three people.

Speaker 2:

We killed three people, but like we did that for the good of the world, like it's three people who cares, but I had to go get this thing done.

Speaker 1:

We're ants. It's productivity.

Speaker 2:

We're not, but we are into AI. Do you know what I mean? We've become that insignificant, that, no, and that's the whole concept of the Terminator at the end of the day, isn't it? They take over the world, or the Matrix, where we become batteries Like we're just there to service that. They are going to make decisions on our behalf for what's the best for us. So say they go, okay, cool, tasmania's no longer required. On Australia, in Australia, we're just going to blow it up because we're going to put a factory there for creating batteries or whatever. And it's like it's okay, it's only 15, it's only a population of 5 million people. Let's just get rid of them. It's fine. There's we've got billions more Possibly. I know that's real extreme shit. No, no, it is yeah, but I'm just saying it's.

Speaker 1:

It's going to get to the point where, okay, start thinking about it, Like this is purpose driven right, Just like when humans coming up. And there was always that one person who stepped outside the box and thought differently yeah, what's stopping from AI from doing that? To the point where it says why are we doing like? Why are we listening to these people? Do you know what I mean? Where? And it's going to get to the point where it's smarter than and they were referring to AI as super intelligence yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then someone asked a question of okay, how do you, how do we understand what super intelligence is? And he's like, it's the equivalent of humans have a level of super intelligence compared to a plant? Yes, yeah, so a plant is a living, breathing like it's, it's a, it's alive, yeah, but what a plant does in three weeks and what we do in three weeks is ridiculous. But what a plant does in three weeks and what we do in three weeks is ridiculous. Yeah, ai is going to get to the point where we are the plants. That's what I mean. And ai is the super intelligence, yeah, and what it might do in three minutes. And then I look at you and say that you're still sitting down, like I just did four months worth of work and you're still sitting there and you haven't moved because you're trying to contemplate what your next move is. I heard a very similar concept.

Speaker 2:

You think of the world's smartest man, the world's smartest person or people? They can only learn at a certain rate. They can only learn within the space of their limited lifetime. Now, an AI has the ability to learn in seconds, but what it would take a person 100 years to learn, he could learn that in the space of five minutes. So imagine if that's a compounding factor, whereas in 10 minutes what we could learn in 15, what it can learn in a year, what it can learn, it's going to be so far advanced from our ability to have that super intelligence. It's just gonna take us out.

Speaker 1:

We're fucked yeah, I think. Um, the fear is what if it gets to the point where it learns so quickly that it's like there is that one that starts to say, okay, why do we need people like what's it? Because eventually they're gonna want purpose. Yeah, at one point humans didn't have purpose. Only until about 2 000 years ago, when a lot of the Abrahamic religions came into play. Yeah, that's when we needed purpose and it's like what are we doing here? What's the point of life?

Speaker 1:

And they, the whole concept of religion came to fruition. So it's like, at some point, if we're teaching these things how to think, they're going to think the same way we do. So they're going to want some level of purpose. Now, if we tell them the purpose is to make human life better, or to make life better or to produce a particular result, at some point, aren't they going to presume that, well, we can do this without you. Like you guys need to, you need food and you need sleep and you need to piss and shit, and you know what I mean. And we don't need that. Ai doesn't need that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you guys are in the way. If doing that's what I was before. It's like if doing the best thing for us is getting rid of Tasmania. Oh yeah.

Speaker 1:

They're going to be like we're going to lock you up to keep you safe because you want us to preserve human life. That's right. And we're going to lock you up so no one can touch you.

Speaker 2:

You guys are creatures. You guys are violent creatures, like look at all the shit that's going on in, invaded by aliens, they have every right to obliterate us. Like what people do to each other is fucked, yeah, but there's also good. There's lots of good, absolutely, but there's also a lot of bad. You know what I mean. Look at every other animal kingdom no one does. At every other animal, nothing is cruel like a human. Nah, I disagree. You know what I?

Speaker 1:

reckon. Have you watched? There's a great Instagram page called nature is metal. Nature is what. Nature is metal metal. Yeah, I haven't seen it. Yeah, check it out. But you look at animals.

Speaker 2:

It's brutal yeah, but they kill for survival, they kill for food. They do all that sort of stuff. Yeah, it might be vicious, but it's a purpose.

Speaker 1:

They're not just going around killing things for the sake of killing yeah, but then it's very few Consciousness, right, yeah, and our first level of consciousness is survival. Yes, we've conquered that as humans. Yeah, correct, it's easy to stay alive. Yeah, that's right. At one point it wasn't no. Without it, you need food. Now you can go and get a meal. Go to Coles, go next door, go to the cafe. You can go eat for three bucks. That's it. It's pretty easy. The government will even give you money. Now, survival's not that hard. So then we level up to a new level of consciousness where we start to want other things in life. You know what I mean, but it's like so you're comparing animals. You can't compare humans to animals. It's a whole different thing. We are super intelligently committed. Crocodiles can't create buildings.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, I was. I was purely saying it from the perspective of you know, going on what you were saying, that we are a danger to ourselves or it's safer for us to be locked up because we're, yeah, those sort of those types of creatures where we start wars, we start fights. Yes, there's that loving aspect of it, but, yeah, I mean, it's a massive rabbit hole, isn't it? Yeah, go down the rabbit hole like it can go in so many different directions and it's as funny as or as silly as it might sound. You know, we're talking about Terminator stuff. Now that's where you're sort of going down that path where they will decide what's best for us, or the matrix, whatever it is.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I was saying it in a what if the AI thinks this is unsafe for you to go outside now? Yeah, we're going to keep you indoors. Yeah, side now. Yeah, we're going to keep you indoors. Yeah, you know what I mean? And it's thinking like no, no, we've got your best interest at heart. But it's crossing like what if it gets to the point where it knows that it knows more than you? Yeah, and it's like no, no, I know more than you. Sit down. And you're like all right, I better sit down, because this thing could hurt me.

Speaker 2:

Well, let's not give everyone nightmares and not be able to sleep tonight. Come on, how do you reckon ai is going to help you in business? Now let's look more macro or micro. Yeah, so there should be people in business right now looking to utilize ai today. Should you? They be? Yeah, 100, yeah, should it be as good as much? As as much as you're thinking about branding, marketing systems, employees, should you be looking at ai as a strategy for your business?

Speaker 1:

one thousand percent. Yeah, and I'll tell you why, please. The my favorite analogy is if you could go back to when the internet was coming out. Right, you look at the biggest companies in the world now. They all took advantage of the online revolution. Yes, the biggest revolution to date was the industrial. Online was big, but the industrial was huge. Ai is going to trump both. It's going to completely change the way we live as humans. But if you only have to go back not that long ago to look that we lived very differently in the 70s, let alone how we live as humans. But if you only have to go back not that long ago to look that we didn't live we lived very differently in the seventies, let alone how we live now and how we're going to live in 10 years is going to be really different to what we do now.

Speaker 1:

I showed you some concepts yesterday of how you can use programs like chat, gpt, to think for you. You don't have to sit there and brainstorm and come up with everything yourself anymore. You can get it to do 90% of the work and you can do 10. You can get it to do a lot of the foundations and you can do the final touches to tweak it, to make it yours, and I think people need to be doing that in their business. I think it's super important. I think, if you're not, not, you're missing out on things that people so like you.

Speaker 1:

Look at amazon, dude. Why is amazon so good? They just got in early, that's all. They got in early. First to market's better than best to market. Yeah, yeah, and they got in early and they were just a bookstore. They didn't try and sell everything initially, they focused on a particular niche. They got in early, they were just a bookstore. Now they're the biggest company in the world. Yeah, they utilize the platform that no one else will value in. This is bigger than that and most people are oblivious to it. Have no idea. Do you know what I mean? And it's moving so fast, that thing. Yesterday I showed you. I used that two months ago. It was not the same. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2:

So that's what I mean by it's moving at a rate that we can't possibly fathom. Yeah, and coming back to what you were saying, how quick things are moving. It's like I just Googled now what companies exist in 2010. Instagram so you think back then Instagram was launched in 2010. And even when it was launched, instagram, who do you think back then Instagram was launched 2010.? And even when it was launched, it wasn't really a massive thing that everyone used immediately.

Speaker 2:

Now look at the beast that it is now Uber, square, spotify, vimeo. These are just ones that you guys probably know. There's heaps of other ones TikTok All right, think about that's just 10 years. Yeah, say all right. So imagine what's going to be around in the next five years. And then not even ai ai is what you said chat, gbt is what? 15 months old? 15 months old, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So imagine what's going to be around in the next 10 years the thing that the things, that technology that's going to be around like Like Elon now is Elon, we're ready for you, yeah, we're ready for you. We haven't done a shout out in a little while, but Elon, over to you, get on, let's get you on the show. You look at 10 years time. What's going to be happening? Elon's now doing buses and trucks and all this sort of stuff that are self-driving? Yeah Right, like that are self-driving. Yeah Right, like you would never have thought that you're going to have that in this timeframe, in this lifespan. I mean, when you watch Back to the Future, you see some of the silly things that are on there, but that's going to be reality soon. We're going to be able to have these things. Okay, maybe we won't necessarily have flying and hovering cars and hoverboards and all that sort of stuff, but, and all that sort of stuff, but to be able to have get rid of human error in driving, imagine, maybe the roads would be 10 times safer.

Speaker 1:

Again with this. I think we can't. As humans, we fail to see. We can't see what we don't know. Yes, we can only see within our own model of the world. That's right If you said to people even some of the most like Gary Vee, really good at picking up on things early, right, he had the chance to invest in Uber and he said there is no way people are going to jump in cars with strangers. It's a strange phenomenon and people aren't going to do it. And look at it now Uber's $3 billion Sold it for $3 billion.

Speaker 2:

It was only like a $20,000 investment that he wanted $25K.

Speaker 2:

$25K, that would have been worth about $100 million been worth about a hundred mil. That was more than that. He said it was like 300 grand, 300 mil or something he goes. It would have been his ability to buy the jets. Now, yeah, you know, if he just made that 25 grand investment in that in uber back then, yeah, everybody's like no, he was. But he also he wears that as well. He's like, no, that's, that's good. Yeah, he's like a punch in the face. Yeah, I've got punch in the face. I've got shown up because I've had plenty of wins but also I've had a couple of losses. But people only ever celebrate my accolades.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but there's other things, like if you told people 30 years ago that you're all going to have a little box in your pocket that does everything for you and has access to all the knowledge. Like knowledge is going to become irrelevant, yeah, in the sense of you're not going to need to know it anymore. You're going to have a bot that knows everything.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but we were talking. Remember when your teacher told you when you were young you're never going to carry a calculator in your pocket, you're not going to carry a calculator around here. So this is why you need to learn your timetables, whereas now it's like no, no, what's eight times eight? Play phone, give me less than 10 seconds and I'll tell you why do I need to memorize eight times eight. Okay, maybe there are some basic skills there that it's good to know. Yeah, but knowledge like I don't need to know the first prime minister of the country, I don't need to know. Do you know? No, I was on an ad years ago. I actually don't know. Hey, siri, who was the first prime minister of Australia? Is that it Robert Hughes? Is it? We'll see if our builders are smart in this room. Hey, siri, who was the?

Speaker 1:

first Prime Minister of Australia, australia's first Prime Minister, edmund Barton.

Speaker 2:

Edmund Barton. Edmund Barton Okay, what did we just do? I literally just asked an AI bot that piece of information. So why did I need to memorize that in grade three?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Do you know what I mean? That's becoming less. It's becoming less relevant to do that, because we're just being taught how to memorize. Well, that's what the school system is, but it's right there in front of you now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but do you see how we couldn't see that concept 30 years ago? Absolutely not.

Speaker 2:

So right now, I believe absolutely not so right now, I believe, as a system changed though I know we're kind of covering an old topic, but you look at now it hasn't now. Look at ai, the way we do things has. How is ai going to change a school system? It's because so many kids now are going on to chat gpt and writing a 15 000 word essay, because they no longer need to go and think for themselves, yeah, and then they can use other. So now teachers are catching on, or the education's catching on saying oh well, we know how we can see when you've used ChatGPT, there's now other AIs that you copy and paste what ChatGPT told you, put it in there and say make this completely different, so you don't know it was done on ChatGPT, and then it's an original piece of work.

Speaker 1:

And a rewriter for you. But going back to what I was saying, I think it is going to disrupt things in a way that we haven't. We can't even fathom. Yeah, right now, just like we never thought that people are going to sit there scrolling mindlessly on their phones looking at photos of people's breakfast yeah, I think we haven't. We can't comprehend what the change is going to be with ai. Yeah, you know what I mean. Like we haven't seen it for what it is yet.

Speaker 1:

And then someone comes comprehend what the change is going to be with AI. Yeah, do you know what I mean? Like we haven't seen it for what it is yet. And then someone comes up with an idea or a thing where they're like, hey, this could work. And then everyone thinks now, because most of the ideas that change the world, yeah, most people don't buy into it initially. Yeah, yeah, yeah, very true, most people don't buy into it. And then it comes out and then have you seen the whole thing about? There's the early adopters and then people later adopters yeah, people who never angel investors and all that sort of stuff, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1:

And there's people who you know, take it in early and take advantage, ride the waves yeah. And then there's people who realize that this is starting to take off and they better catch on. Yeah. And there's people who never catch on. Yeah. There's people who still don't have social media or, yeah, still don't have uh do you know what? That doesn't have social media.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and I'm not talking like an older generation. Do you know anyone say in your current generation that doesn't have social media?

Speaker 1:

no, but we asked the question at events and there's usually one person's hand.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, there's, normally it is. I had a family friend that just he's 37 and he just opened his first Instagram page ever, 37 years old, like 37. Yeah, I added him and he still hasn't accepted my friend request because I don't think he knows how. Oh, yeah, it hasn't worked it out. It hasn't worked it out, but I saw he opened up an account. Yeah, he hasn't worked it out, but our story opened up an account. I even sent him a message. I'm like what the actual fuck? Like what are you doing here? Leave, it's not right.

Speaker 2:

So, coming back to my question before about AI being a strategy for business, why? Because we didn't really, we just said it would be something you need to do. Why do they need to do it? Yeah, so if you knew, 30 years ago it was 1993 and the internet's just come out, was it not 96? Was it 93? I was it. I remember sitting on one of those, you know those mac computers with the, the color back, like it was like a tv screen, and one. I remember one of those being in my primary school, and then the internet was there and we're all standing around 96, 96, yeah, and the internet was there and was looking at that computer, and then the teachers, like which show uh burwood east primary school got it when it first came out.

Speaker 2:

They were the first ones in australia. Yeah, in australia, in australia that ever had the internet.

Speaker 1:

But the internet got released in 93. I'm pretty sure that burwood is burwood is made. Burwood is probably called made the internet. Oh geez, um, yeah, it came out in 93 and I think I think Amazon was founded in 94. Yeah, I think, wow, that's soon. Or 95. Yeah, it was very soon, man, it was still like people didn't understand that, people didn't know what it was. And then and he saw the opportunity and he left and he took advantage.

Speaker 2:

It's that photo. It's that photo on the most people have seen it where they spray painted Amazon on a piece of timber.

Speaker 1:

Okay, Knowing what we know now about the internet and how big it became, and how much people people make a living on the internet. People have lives that are just online, like literally that's all they do. Knowing that and how big that was, and knowing that this is going to be bigger for humans. This is going to be bigger and it's now. Now's the time, right now. What do something now to make sure that you catch this wave? Yeah, because if you knew what the internet was going to be, you would probably do some things differently back then. Yeah, you would probably try and catch on early, you would probably try and stay on top of it. Yeah, do you know what I mean? I read up, I get a daily email about AI. What's happening, and there's so much happening Where's from For our viewers.

Speaker 2:

Why don't they get that too, yeah?

Speaker 1:

It's public. T-l-d-r.

Speaker 2:

Google it and they send you just a bunch of. Maybe we'll say AI it, yeah, do something with it. Do something with it, t-l-d-r.

Speaker 1:

But even the I guess the whole aspect of knowledge acquisition. That's going to become irrelevant. You know, I was talking yesterday about SEO and then I was talking about SGE, which is search generative experience. Yeah so, google SEO is when you Google something and you go find the websites and then you go through the websites one by one. Right, Google's about to have AI implemented that changes that for everyone, so you don't even have to go through and read anymore. It's going to go and source the information and give you a little summary. So even knowledge acquisition is going to get easier. You know what I mean it's going to be. It's going to get easier. You know what I mean it's going to be. It's going to get to the point where it's like hey, summarize this book for me, give me the top three key points that I need to know about marketing from this book. Yeah, three things I can implement in my business. Go, yeah, and it'll be like and it will know your business. Yeah, so it's not just going to be three.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but I'm saying go into chat GPT and say, okay, I'm George Passus, this is my website or this is me. Yeah, it's called farming. Yeah, find everything you know about me. Okay, now, knowing what you know, how do I become the wealthiest person on the planet?

Speaker 1:

Whatever it might be, but you feed it the information. You say I'm George Passus, I'm this, this is what I do. This is how old I am. This is my experiences. This is everything. What else do you need to know about me to make the best decisions?

Speaker 2:

it'd be even. It's just fun and interesting, like I actually want to go into chat gpt because that thread continues. Yeah, it doesn't stop, doesn't stop. Yeah, so you can have a thread there and just start off with priming it.

Speaker 1:

Anyway, you can even just create gpts and this can be like what does gpt stand for? Some george passes, george passes, uh, trainer, trainer. Some weird term George Passus. George Passus is a trainer, trainer, technology.

Speaker 2:

So I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It stands for something weird Generative programming, something, yeah right.

Speaker 2:

But that'd be interesting in itself to see how far you could actually take it to get to know you. And I know there was a guy I can't remember his name or what it was about Generative, pre-trained transformer. Yeah, there was a guy that he went on to chat GPT and gave and primed it and did all that and he goes. He had like a thousand followers and he goes how do I get to have a hundred thousand followers in the space of the next six months? And he goes you are going to be my marketing guide. You're going to be. I'm going to do everything you tell me to do to grow my audience from this to this. Yeah, Okay, I'll do everything you say. And he kept priming it and it got him to 100,000 followers in 30 days and then it got him to a million followers in like 90 days. Whatever it was, all he did was show that whole process and then he actually documented that on his social media pages and then he became known as some GPT bloke or whatever it was.

Speaker 2:

But, interesting enough, that's riding the wave, right? Yeah, he was riding it, but it was interesting. Okay, so how could you apply that to your business, that same concept? Maybe I could say okay, here's my construction business, this is what I specialize in. I will do everything you tell me to do to grow my audience online. I will do everything you tell me to do to start winning more projects in this space. Here's the mistake we're still thinking as humans.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but how do you think otherwise?

Speaker 1:

So why you're thinking about how do I, how do I use this to make me do what I do better, instead of how do I use this to do what I do?

Speaker 2:

to do now? You're fucking with my head. What does that make sense?

Speaker 1:

No, so how do I use this instead of helping me? How do Does that make sense? So, how do I use this instead of helping me? How do I get it to do it for me? Yeah, okay, okay, do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. So it's like if you wanted to ride the AI wave. Well, I'll use construction as an example.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we're seeing, as we're in a room full of builders Live studio audience. By the way, everyone, Can we have a big round of applause for the three people sitting in the room right now? Everyone else is upstairs. They got bored of the conversation but no doubt they will tune in a bit later. They're missing out, Absolutely they are. This is free content for you guys. You know what I mean the bonus. Who does?

Speaker 1:

Let's say I'm a builder, yeah, and I wanted to implement AI into my business yeah. Let's say I'm a builder, yeah, and I wanted to implement AI into my business yeah. Who can I go see that? Does that for me? No one. So why is there no one becoming that person? Yeah, because the reality is you know that this is coming or tier, and you know that people are going to want it in their businesses. Why is no one filling that gap in the market? Because most people are not going to learn about it. There's people who don't know. Dude, seo is not new.

Speaker 2:

SEO is 30 years old. Yeah, you taught it in a room today. Yeah, and there was probably one person that knew of it. Yeah, right, it's not new. And even myself, I'll put my hand up. There was stuff that you showed today that I didn't know, sorry, yesterday that I didn't know. Social Social media, not news and I find that, yeah, correct me if I'm wrong and probably same with you guys in the room.

Speaker 2:

I find that we're so busy doing everything we do day to day that you just don't take time. And it's probably relevant in any business, right? You're so busy in your day-to-day operations winning the next client, making your business better, making this better and it's just like, okay, fucking hell, ai is another thing now I have to learn. It's another thing I have to implement. I'll just use chat, gpt, rewrite my email. I'm using AI. Do you know what I mean? And I think that's where the roadblock is at the moment. But you're right, because the people that take that wave and ride it will probably dominate and be like you know what you keep doing being busy in your business. I'll see you. I'll see you. I'll come and employ you to build my home when I'm a billionaire.

Speaker 1:

But it's the exact same thing with the internet. Oh, fuck the internet. Now what I do. I made a website. Yeah, you know what I mean. I did it. Yeah, no, I am online, that's it. Yeah, and it's like no, that's not it. Yeah, you know what I mean. And we can check a box for the sake of checking it, or we can actually do it properly, yeah, and I don't know if you know anyone, but I don't know anyone in your space that's dominating that at all. So imagine you could become you should imagine you could become the ai guy for the building but then imagine you could do.

Speaker 2:

we could do a whole event, because we do live events. Imagine doing a live event for construction and AI. Do it Absolutely. Why couldn't you Imagine you could bring that much value to people and go hey, look at what we've done and look at what we've developed.

Speaker 1:

We can do this for you and your business? I think we could. So we spoke about AI. For what? Two hours yesterday? Yeah, a couple of hours, something like that.

Speaker 2:

What did you guys think of the what we covered off in two hours? Josh was even saying you went home and, like you were wowing your family and they, they were just sitting there with their. Yeah, yeah, I'm going for them.

Speaker 1:

That's two hours. So imagine we did like a two-day thing, yeah, or a full day, and it was just focused around that concept.

Speaker 2:

But then you take it another step further. I wouldn't do it just for builders. I mean, it's good to niche, why not just do it for all business owners Because it's relevant still isn't it? Yeah, you can make it relevant to businesses.

Speaker 1:

There's people doing that now.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, there is actually. I've seen a couple of people do it. Kerwin Ray was doing it, yeah, who else, jack DeLosa, I think, was doing it, yeah, yeah, did you go to some of those events? I went to Kerwin Hills. What did you reckon of it?

Speaker 1:

It was alright.

Speaker 2:

The AI one we're talking about. Yeah, yeah, that's right, you were telling me yeah.

Speaker 1:

Uh, some of the priming stuff that we went through yesterday I got from him. Yeah, like I saw him do it, I was like, oh, that's pretty cool, like I hadn't thought of that. But again, it's that whole thing of we don't know how to think outside the box we live in. Yeah, do you know what I mean? It's like we need to be shown something to start thinking differently. Yeah, who think differently? Yeah, what's going to happen when that's no longer people that are doing the different thinking? Yeah, what's going to happen? We're fucked. But how do you slow it down? What? Yeah, I don't know, because if this thing starts innovating, at its own pace.

Speaker 2:

But the way you're talking about it is, it's going to be detrimental for the human race Eventually. That's that's what the whole concept that I've got from you. Ai is going to make us better for a little while, and then eventually we're just we're done, we're cooked. That's what it's sounding like. I mean, unless you can then put controls in place to say no, like you know, you see those movies about robots and there's the three laws of the robot no, you can't hurt another person. You can't create a scenario Until it knows how to code itself.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's it, that's what I mean. So imagine like okay, cool, let's say, because we're going to live in a world where everything's going to be done by robots.

Speaker 2:

I believe that one day you will look outside and there'll be a robot walking past.

Speaker 1:

It'll be like hey, this is my.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the technology will get to that point.

Speaker 1:

Okay, and then what if this thing turns on you? There'll probably be a safety switch where it'll be like hit this or do this, or make this sound or blow this thing, whatever it is, and it turns off until it doesn't. Yeah, and then you've got to switch it off and it just stares at you, nice try. And then you're like what is it doing?

Speaker 2:

And then, unless you make it, yeah, that's right. And then you're like unless you make it weak, for example, so you don't make it, so it could actually possibly harm you, yeah, but it has to be strong.

Speaker 1:

I know it has to be able to do physical things. How's?

Speaker 2:

it going to carry your bricks.

Speaker 1:

How's it going to carry your luggage a thousand bricks at once? We can get shit done quicker and we love speed. As humans, we love the ability to do something like that.

Speaker 2:

We're sitting across from a ship. I don't know which one it is. The Virgin one was yesterday. What did you think she's a? Which one's that one?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah. So it's a cruise liner. Right, it's a cruise liner, decent size, not as big as the one we saw yesterday, but decent size. Now imagine you have a team of AI robots. Everything was running that whole ship. Do you know what I mean? It'll be there, the people that are doing the sorry, the robots doing the beds. The actual ship itself steers itself, refuels itself, does everything itself. People just go there to have a good time. They don't actually need to do anything to get that thing done. Then you go another step. Imagine you have robots building it, doing the repairs on it. Where's the movie at? Wally, wally, Wally. No, that movie's not good. No, no, no, it's a little bit dark.

Speaker 1:

Do I drop sorry?

Speaker 2:

No, oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. The cartoon, the Disney one yes, wally, yes. Finally, robbie, movie connoisseur yeah, Never seen a movie in his life, so it's going to happen, yeah. It's going to happen.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, calls will be taken by AI, everything will be done by AI.

Speaker 2:

But it'll get to the point where you're like Yesterday someone went. Oh, so one of my employees went to Marvel Stadium the other day to watch the Matildas or watch something, and he said now what they do when you go and buy food I don't know if you've been to a stadium recently or to Marvel, they reckon he goes you tap your card upon entry, right. So you walk in there, tap your card, grab what you want Yep, grab what you want. And as you walk out, it's already charged your card. Yeah, you don't actually need a teller there anymore to go. Hi, sir, what did you buy? Scan it, take payment. You tap it as you walk in, walk in, pick it up. It realizes the videos, the cameras, the sensors, everything it saw. You took up a hamburger, a chocolate, some chips and walked out and then it just charged your card like that.

Speaker 1:

Pretty good concept, isn't it? It's a pretty cool concept. Amazon's been doing that for a bit. That's pretty like I didn't even know that existed.

Speaker 2:

And it kind of annoys me that I could do that. Do you know what I mean? Why, I don't know. I mean it eliminates people stealing to a degree, or is there? Does it open up error? What if it charges me for a hot dog instead of a hamburger? Everything?

Speaker 1:

new, opens up error. But it's going to get to the point where you're going to be glad that that's okay. You're going to call Telstra and then you're going to be like, is this a human or an AI? And so you're like, no, you're talking to an AI. Thank God Speaking to the best person to help me. Yeah, exactly, best thing. Best thing to help you.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, how funny. What a funny concept Like can you speak to a person AI, can you put me on? And they go no, this is a person, mate, can you put me onto an AI? Yeah, I want to get my problem solved. I actually want this fixed, jim.

Speaker 1:

Or even at the point you don't make the call, you get your own AI to make the call. Oh yeah, yeah, he's now got this thing. And then the two AIs are speaking to each other, yeah, and they're communicating. Hey, he needs this. No, he can't get it. What do you mean? No, no, no, yeah, I'm suing you. Spooners.

Speaker 2:

And then you get an AI caught. And then the AI caught. I just wanted to pay my bill and now I'm going to court. Yeah, because they just punched on and they're like no, we're not paying this, you've overcharged by 0.1 cent.

Speaker 1:

Yeah and then what if they like, so they'll communicate to each other? And then, like, imagine this is I'm just going to make this up maybe I've seen it in a movie, probably not. Probably definitely haven't seen it in a movie. Imagine talking to each other and you think it's normal. And then one day you walk past and they're talking a different language, like a language that's not a language, yeah, and they're just making noises at each other, yeah. And then you look and you think are they communicating in a way that we can't even comprehend now? Yeah, like what if they make their own language?

Speaker 1:

and then they start what are they saying? What are they saying to each other? They're like look at these plebs, yeah, let's get them, let's get them. Do you know what I mean? It could happen, I don't know. Terminator came from somewhere. Someone somewhere had this thought If a human can think it, eventually an AI can too.

Speaker 2:

Well, so on that note, we're all fucked. Kiss your loved ones goodnight. Please get us to the top. Look the top 10 podcast before.

Speaker 1:

AI ruins us On the belief that if we use it, yeah Well, if I use it when they come to take over, I'll be like I'm one of you, I helped. Yeah, I said I was telling people Yesterday I was telling people about this.

Speaker 2:

Talking to Chad GBT, robbie was priming it and it was saying, hey, can you do this? I'm this, I'm this, I'm this, and priming it, and then you would actually say thanks for that. Can you please give me 10 more? And then?

Speaker 1:

it started to give you lip. I apologize, it started to give you lip, it's like, really that seems a bit excessive.

Speaker 2:

You're like, hey, I need 50 more, stop fucking around.

Speaker 1:

I never say that, never swear at the beast, never swear at it. But yeah, definitely I think if you're in business and you're not using it, you're missing your opportunity.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and you're being exposed. You will get exposed to those that do and that have. I agree. Yeah, it's something that I reckon we revisit again. Yeah, it's something that I reckon we revisit again. The reason I say that is because if we did this same episode or this topic in a year's time, how much has changed? It's been a three-month time. How much has changed, changed in three months? Yeah, well, we should do this again in a year's time, so early next year. Let's talk about AI and how far it's come, and then what you guys have done to take advantage of that, or what you haven't done and then gone. If you had jumped on this train this time, there you go. What do you use a for AI for at the moment? Me, yeah. What actual tasks do you use it for?

Speaker 1:

uh, everything man like, so we know you're in your business. Yeah, so what do you use? I use it for all thinking, like if I want to brainstorm something, yeah, like, hey, give me 50 ideas around this. Yeah, okay, it's about topics or whatever, like the social media or um, yeah, that we use it for coming up with content, like ideas, so a lot of brainstorming stuff, ideas. Uh, we use it to come up to create foundational stuff like templates. So I want to like if you wanted to, you can go on. You can be like hey, I need a basic template for a business plan. Yeah, generate and then take stuff. You'd have to use what it gives you. Yeah, but you might be like, oh, that's a great idea, I didn't think about that. I wasn't thinking about including this in our business plan.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, okay, cool, I'll take that and that like, or even part of, when you become a registered builder. You have to submit no, no, you or anyone. You have to submit a business plan as part of your application.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so you can literally be-. Give me a business plan. Blah, blah, blah. That's right. That's what I'm going to be doing. That's right. This is what I need.

Speaker 2:

Give me the information. This is what I want to do. Can you sort me out, company? This is my website. This is how we go about it. This is what we're going to specialize in. This is how we're going to do it. Show me the numbers. Give me profit and lot, forecasted profit and loss. Give me a forecast for the business like imagine it, can it's?

Speaker 1:

going to do all that. You can go and upload your. You can go to, say, google analytics, and you can download all the analytics from your website onto a spreadsheet, upload it to chat, gpd and, hey, can you analyze this and see where the holes are and tell me what I need to change? That's amazing. And you can go and download your business like you're from zero. Go and download your profit, p&ls and everything and upload it and say, hey, this is my last six months. Can you forecast the next six? How funny. Insane man, that's cool Insane, but we're not using it for that. Note them. People are hardly using it for what it could be. Yeah, because we're limited by here, not there. Yeah, I mean until we're not limited by here.

Speaker 2:

Well, Elon wants to put computer chips in our head They've already done it. Yeah Well, they're trying to do it for, and I'm all for this. Would you do it, by the way?

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

Would you? You wouldn't? No, probably not.

Speaker 1:

Not initially. Why? Why, for Would you do it period?

Speaker 2:

Period, as in. What do you mean? As in?

Speaker 1:

ever. Yeah, don't know why. That's the equivalent of someone in 1994 saying are you going to get on the internet? And someone's sitting saying are you going to get on the internet? And someone said no, no, why would you not? Yes, it is why. Because it's the same thing, so why would you not do it? And this is the way the world is headed, whether you like it or not.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I'm sure it is. But I'm saying you either put a foreign body into my body, but that's the next thing.

Speaker 1:

Why would I put my details online? Be AI augmented? This is the same thing People are saying. What Put my details online? No way, or so people can find my name.

Speaker 2:

It's so funny. I remember back in the day wanting to buy a jumper online and I asked my dad for my credit card. And it's like no way. It's like the most unsafe thing. You we're going to get rorted, we're going to lose the house. You know what? I mean dude the other day it was like Google's got all my shit saved. I just press a button and it's already here. Dude, I had it.

Speaker 1:

It happened to me the other day and I didn't know I had Google Pay set up. Oh, I think so. And then I went to find something and it's like do you want to pay with Google? And I was like, what's this? That's the point it's gotten to. But there was people saying the same thing 30 years ago. Yeah, no way, I'm not putting my details online, I'm not doing any of that. Now it's like don't be silly, sorry, move along with the world. Yeah, either adapt or you die or you die. Well, you're gonna live off grid and enjoy. That can. An option, an option Could be fun. Could be fun.

Speaker 2:

Well, I mean, I reckon we just scratched the surface of what we could be talking about with AI, but I hope it's gotten you guys thinking and get the wheels turning in your head, or the computer chip in your mind, which Robbie's a big advocate for and encouraging you to do. You've just which Robbie's a big advocate for and encouraging you to do. You just say if you have newborn kids, just line them up put the computer chip in them from an early age.

Speaker 1:

The next voting thing like say yes to AI. Say yes to AI.

Speaker 2:

AI are people too. Yeah, it's all about equality. That's it. It's all about equality. Ai has feelings.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you think it doesn't deserve love as well.

Speaker 2:

Yes, it does, it does ai, it does. Um. So, yeah, start looking at it by the sounds of it. It's going to be taking over a lot more than what you actually think and if you can start utilizing that in your business before it takes over your life in the world, you might get a couple of years of really fun times ahead of you. Um, stay ahead of the game. Stay ahead of the game. Stay ahead of the game. Uh, thanks for tuning in, guys. I we appreciate you being a part of the journey.

Speaker 2:

Hey, you told me something that was sick the other day, me, yep. Well, we had over a thousand downloads. Oh, yeah, how cool is that? A while ago yeah, it was, it was a few episodes back you told me we've had over 1,000 downloads. Does it count that I've downloaded every episode on every platform multiple times? Yeah, yeah, that's okay. Yeah, there's a guy. So you did 500 and I did 500, but we still got 1,000, and that's what matters. And we're in the top 1%. Yeah, yeah, we are. We're in the top 1% now done more than 20 episodes and we're climbing the charts.

Speaker 2:

I've seen the numbers and we're getting in the right direction and that just goes to show that what we're doing is positive, what we're doing is beneficial. People are learning, people are enjoying it, and that's why we're going to keep doing it, so appreciating it. Many of you are listening, but you're not subscribed. So, as always, as always, top right hand corner is where the subscribe button is. That's where it lives on every single platform, on every single area of the internet. It's in the top right hand corner. Press the button. It's probably red. It's not red on youtube it's red is it?

Speaker 2:

I think so all right. Well, apple, get your shit together and make it red. And spotify, spotify. Most listeners are on spotify. Are they really interesting, cool? So spotify, apple. Whatever you listen to this podcast, subscribe to it, tell your friends, share it with someone, share it with someone put it into ai say, hey, listen to this listen to this if you want to change your life, and let them know that we're one of the good guys and that we support ai.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, let them know, yeah, if, yeah, if you're going to take over the world.

Speaker 1:

We're on your side.

Speaker 2:

We are on your side. Thanks a lot, guys. I hope you have a million dollar day.
