  • 00:00:05
    ever since computers were invented
  • 00:00:07
    they've really just been glorified
  • 00:00:08
    calculators machines that execute the
  • 00:00:11
    exact instructions given to them by the
  • 00:00:13
    programmers but something incredible is
  • 00:00:15
    happening now computers have started
  • 00:00:16
    gaining the ability to learn and think
  • 00:00:19
    and communicate just like we do they can
  • 00:00:21
    do creative intellectual work that
  • 00:00:23
    previously only humans could do we call
  • 00:00:25
    this technology generative Ai and you
  • 00:00:27
    may have encountered it already through
  • 00:00:29
    products like GPT basically intelligence
  • 00:00:32
    is now available as a service kind of
  • 00:00:34
    like a giant brain floating in the sky
  • 00:00:36
    that anyone can talk to it's not perfect
  • 00:00:39
    but it is surprisingly capable and it is
  • 00:00:40
    improving at an exponential rate this is
  • 00:00:43
    a big deal it's going to affect just
  • 00:00:45
    about every person and Company on the
  • 00:00:47
    planet positively or negatively this
  • 00:00:49
    video is here to help you understand
  • 00:00:51
    what generative AI is all about in
  • 00:00:53
    Practical terms beyond the hype the
  • 00:00:54
    better you understand this technology as
  • 00:00:56
    a person team or company the better
  • 00:00:58
    equipped you will be to survive and
  • 00:01:00
    thrive in the age of AI so here's a
  • 00:01:03
    silly but useful mental model for this
  • 00:01:05
    you have Einstein in your basement in
  • 00:01:07
    fact everyone does and by Einstein I
  • 00:01:10
    really mean the combination of every
  • 00:01:12
    smart person who ever lived you can talk
  • 00:01:14
    to Einstein whenever you want he has
  • 00:01:16
    instant access to the sum of all human
  • 00:01:18
    knowledge and will answer anything you
  • 00:01:20
    want within seconds never running out of
  • 00:01:21
    patience he can also take on any role
  • 00:01:23
    you want a comedian poet doctor coach
  • 00:01:27
    and will be an expert within that field
  • 00:01:29
    he has has some humanlike limitations
  • 00:01:31
    though he can make mistakes he can jump
  • 00:01:33
    to conclusions he can misunderstand you
  • 00:01:35
    but the biggest limitation is actually
  • 00:01:37
    your imagination and your ability to
  • 00:01:39
    communicate effectively with them this
  • 00:01:41
    skill is known as prompt engineering and
  • 00:01:43
    in the age of AI this is as essential as
  • 00:01:46
    reading and writing most people vastly
  • 00:01:49
    underestimate what this Einstein in your
  • 00:01:51
    basement can do it's like going to the
  • 00:01:53
    real Einstein and asking him to proof
  • 00:01:55
    read a high school report or hiring a
  • 00:01:56
    world-class five-star chef and having
  • 00:01:59
    him chop onion the more you interact
  • 00:02:01
    with Einstein the more you will discover
  • 00:02:02
    surprising and Powerful ways for him to
  • 00:02:05
    help you or your company okay enough
  • 00:02:07
    fluffy metaphors let's clarify some
  • 00:02:08
    terms AI as you probably know stands for
  • 00:02:11
    artificial intelligence AI is not new
  • 00:02:14
    Fields like machine learning and
  • 00:02:15
    computer vision have been around for
  • 00:02:17
    decades whenever you see a YouTube
  • 00:02:18
    recommendation or a web search result or
  • 00:02:21
    whenever you get a credit card
  • 00:02:22
    transaction approved that's traditional
  • 00:02:24
    AI in action generative AI is AI that
  • 00:02:27
    generates new original content rather
  • 00:02:29
    than just finding or classifying
  • 00:02:31
    existing content that's the G in GPT for
  • 00:02:33
    example large language models or llms
  • 00:02:36
    are a type of generative AI that can
  • 00:02:38
    communicate using normal human language
  • 00:02:41
    chat GPT is a product by the company
  • 00:02:43
    open AI it started as an llm essentially
  • 00:02:46
    an advanced chatbot using a new
  • 00:02:47
    architecture called the Transformer
  • 00:02:49
    architecture which by the way is the T
  • 00:02:51
    in GPT it is so fluent at human language
  • 00:02:54
    that anyone can use it you don't need to
  • 00:02:55
    be an AI expert or programmer and that's
  • 00:02:57
    kind of what triggered the whole
  • 00:02:58
    Revolution so how does it actually work
  • 00:03:02
    well a large language model is an
  • 00:03:03
    artificial neural network basically a
  • 00:03:06
    bunch of numbers or or parameters
  • 00:03:08
    connected to each other similar to how
  • 00:03:09
    our brain is a bunch of neurons or brain
  • 00:03:11
    cells connected to each other neural
  • 00:03:12
    networks only deal with numbers you send
  • 00:03:15
    in numbers and depending on how the
  • 00:03:16
    parameters are set all the numbers come
  • 00:03:18
    out but any kind of content such as text
  • 00:03:20
    or images can be represented as numbers
  • 00:03:22
    so let's say I write dogs are when I
  • 00:03:25
    send that to a large language model that
  • 00:03:27
    gets converted to numbers processed by
  • 00:03:29
    the neural network and then the
  • 00:03:30
    resulting numbers are converted back
  • 00:03:31
    into text in this case the word animals
  • 00:03:34
    dogs are animals so yeah this is
  • 00:03:36
    basically a guest toex word machine the
  • 00:03:39
    interesting part is if we take that
  • 00:03:40
    output and combine it with the input and
  • 00:03:43
    send it through the model again then it
  • 00:03:45
    will continue adding new words that's
  • 00:03:46
    what's going on behind the scenes when
  • 00:03:48
    you type something in chat GPT in this
  • 00:03:50
    case for example it generated a whole
  • 00:03:51
    story and I can continue this
  • 00:03:53
    indefinitely by adding more prompts a
  • 00:03:56
    large language model may have billions
  • 00:03:58
    or even trillions of parameters that's
  • 00:04:00
    why they're called large so how are all
  • 00:04:02
    these numbers set well not through
  • 00:04:04
    manual programming that would be
  • 00:04:06
    impossible but through training just
  • 00:04:09
    like babies learning to speak a baby
  • 00:04:11
    isn't told how to speak she doesn't get
  • 00:04:13
    an instruction manual instead she
  • 00:04:15
    listens to people speaking around her
  • 00:04:16
    and when she's heard enough she starts
  • 00:04:18
    seeing the pattern she speaks a few
  • 00:04:20
    words at first to the Delight of her
  • 00:04:21
    parents and then later on full sentences
  • 00:04:24
    similarly during a training period the
  • 00:04:26
    language model is fed a mindboggling
  • 00:04:28
    amount of text to learn from Mostly from
  • 00:04:31
    internet sources it then plays guess the
  • 00:04:33
    next word with all of this over and over
  • 00:04:35
    again and the parameters are
  • 00:04:37
    automatically tweaked until it starts
  • 00:04:38
    getting really good at predicting the
  • 00:04:40
    next word this is called back
  • 00:04:41
    propagation which is a fancy term for oh
  • 00:04:44
    I guessed wrong I better change
  • 00:04:45
    something however to become truly useful
  • 00:04:47
    a model also needs to undergo human
  • 00:04:49
    training this is called reinforcement
  • 00:04:51
    learning with human feedback and it
  • 00:04:53
    involves thousands of hours of humans
  • 00:04:55
    painstakingly testing and evaluating
  • 00:04:57
    output from the model and giving
  • 00:04:58
    feedback kind of like training a a dog
  • 00:05:01
    with a clicker to reinforce good
  • 00:05:02
    behavior that's why a model like GPT
  • 00:05:04
    won't tell you how to rob a bank it
  • 00:05:06
    knows very well how to rob a bank but
  • 00:05:08
    through human training it has learned
  • 00:05:09
    that it shouldn't help people commit
  • 00:05:11
    crimes when training is done the model
  • 00:05:13
    is mostly Frozen other than some fine
  • 00:05:15
    tuning that can happen later that's what
  • 00:05:17
    the P stands for in GPT pre-trained
  • 00:05:19
    although in the future we will probably
  • 00:05:20
    have models that can learn continuously
  • 00:05:22
    rather than just uh during training and
  • 00:05:24
    fine-tuning now although chat GPT kind
  • 00:05:26
    of got the ball rolling GPT isn't the
  • 00:05:29
    only model out there in fact new models
  • 00:05:31
    are sprouting like mushrooms they vary a
  • 00:05:34
    lot in terms of speed capability and
  • 00:05:36
    cost some can be downloaded and run
  • 00:05:37
    locally others are only online some are
  • 00:05:40
    free or open source others are
  • 00:05:41
    commercial products some are super easy
  • 00:05:43
    to use While others require complicated
  • 00:05:46
    technical setup some are specialized for
  • 00:05:48
    certain use cases others are more
  • 00:05:50
    General and can be used for almost
  • 00:05:52
    anything and some are baked into
  • 00:05:54
    products in the form of co-pilots or or
  • 00:05:56
    chat windows it's it's the Wild West
  • 00:06:00
    just keep in mind that you generally get
  • 00:06:01
    what you pay for so with a free model
  • 00:06:04
    you may just be getting a smart high
  • 00:06:06
    school student in your basement rather
  • 00:06:08
    than Einstein the difference between for
  • 00:06:11
    example GPT 3.5 and gp4 is
  • 00:06:14
    massive note that there are different
  • 00:06:16
    types of generative AI models that
  • 00:06:18
    generate different types of content
  • 00:06:20
    textto text models like gpc4 take text
  • 00:06:23
    as input and generate text as output the
  • 00:06:25
    text can be natural language but it can
  • 00:06:26
    also be structured information like code
  • 00:06:29
    Json or HTML I use this a lot myself to
  • 00:06:32
    generate code when programming uh it
  • 00:06:33
    saves an incredible amount of time and I
  • 00:06:35
    also learn a lot from the code it
  • 00:06:37
    generates text to image models will
  • 00:06:38
    generate images describe what you want
  • 00:06:40
    and an image gets generated for you you
  • 00:06:42
    can even pick a style image to image
  • 00:06:45
    models can do things like transforming
  • 00:06:47
    or combining images and we have image to
  • 00:06:50
    text models which describe the contents
  • 00:06:52
    of a given image and speech to text
  • 00:06:54
    models create voice transcriptions which
  • 00:06:56
    is useful for things like uh meeting
  • 00:06:58
    notes text to audio models they generate
  • 00:07:00
    music or sounds from a prompt for
  • 00:07:02
    example here is some sound generated
  • 00:07:04
    from The Prompt people talking in a
  • 00:07:08
    busy okay guys enough stop now thank you
  • 00:07:13
    and there are even text to video models
  • 00:07:15
    that generate videos from a prompt
  • 00:07:17
    sooner or later we'll have infinite
  • 00:07:18
    movie series that autogenerate the next
  • 00:07:20
    episode tailored to your tastes as
  • 00:07:22
    you're watching kind of scary if you
  • 00:07:24
    think about it one Trend now is
  • 00:07:26
    multimodal AI products meaning they
  • 00:07:28
    combine different models into one
  • 00:07:30
    product so you can work with text images
  • 00:07:32
    audio Etc without switching tools the
  • 00:07:35
    chat GPT mobile app is a good example of
  • 00:07:37
    this just for fun I took a photo of this
  • 00:07:40
    room and I asked where I could hide
  • 00:07:41
    stuff I kind of like that it mentioned
  • 00:07:44
    the stove but warned that that it could
  • 00:07:46
    get hot there when I have things to
  • 00:07:48
    figure out such as the contents of this
  • 00:07:50
    video I like to take walks using chat
  • 00:07:52
    GPT as as a sounding board I start by
  • 00:07:55
    saying always respond with the word okay
  • 00:07:57
    unless I ask you for something that way
  • 00:07:59
    it'll just listen and not interrupt
  • 00:08:01
    after I finish dumping my thoughts I ask
  • 00:08:03
    for feedback we have some discussion and
  • 00:08:06
    then I ask it to summarize and text
  • 00:08:07
    afterwards I really recommend trying
  • 00:08:09
    this it's it's a really useful way to
  • 00:08:11
    use tools like this turns out Einstein
  • 00:08:13
    isn't stuck in the basement after all
  • 00:08:15
    you can take him out for a walk
  • 00:08:17
    initially language models were just word
  • 00:08:19
    predictors statistical machines with
  • 00:08:22
    limited practical use but as they became
  • 00:08:24
    larger and were trained on more data
  • 00:08:26
    they started gaining emergent
  • 00:08:28
    capabilities unexpect capabilities that
  • 00:08:30
    surprised even the developers of the
  • 00:08:31
    technology they could role playay write
  • 00:08:34
    poetry write highquality code discuss
  • 00:08:36
    company strategy provide legal and
  • 00:08:38
    medical advice coach teach basically
  • 00:08:41
    creative and intellectual things that
  • 00:08:43
    only humans could do previously it turns
  • 00:08:46
    out that when a model has seen enough
  • 00:08:47
    text and images it starts to see
  • 00:08:49
    patterns and understand higher level
  • 00:08:51
    Concepts just like a baby learning to
  • 00:08:53
    understand the world let's take a simple
  • 00:08:55
    example I'll give gp4 this little
  • 00:08:57
    drawing that involves a string a pair of
  • 00:09:00
    scissors an egg a pot and a fire what
  • 00:09:03
    will happen if I use the scissors the
  • 00:09:05
    model has most likely not been trained
  • 00:09:07
    on this exact scenario yet it gave a
  • 00:09:10
    pretty good answer which demonstrates a
  • 00:09:11
    basic understanding of the nature of
  • 00:09:13
    scissors eggs gravity and heat when gp4
  • 00:09:16
    was released I started using it as a
  • 00:09:18
    coding assistant and I was blown away
  • 00:09:20
    when prompted effectively it was a
  • 00:09:22
    better programmer than anyone I've
  • 00:09:23
    worked with same with article writing
  • 00:09:25
    product design Workshop planning and
  • 00:09:27
    just about anything I used it for
  • 00:09:29
    the main bottleneck was my prompt
  • 00:09:32
    engineering skills so I decided to make
  • 00:09:33
    a career shift and focus entirely on
  • 00:09:35
    learning and teaching how to make this
  • 00:09:37
    technology useful hence this video now
  • 00:09:40
    let's take a step back and look at the
  • 00:09:41
    implications for 300,000 years or so we
  • 00:09:44
    homosapiens have been the most
  • 00:09:46
    intelligent species on Earth depending
  • 00:09:48
    of course on how you define intelligence
  • 00:09:50
    but the thing is our intellectual
  • 00:09:51
    capabilities aren't really improving
  • 00:09:53
    that much our brains are about the same
  • 00:09:55
    size same weight as they've been for
  • 00:09:56
    thousands of years computers on the
  • 00:09:58
    other hand have been around for only 80
  • 00:10:00
    years or so and now with generative AI
  • 00:10:02
    they are suddenly capable of speaking
  • 00:10:04
    human languages fluently and carrying
  • 00:10:06
    out an increasing number of intellectual
  • 00:10:08
    creative tasks that previously only
  • 00:10:10
    humans could do so we are right here at
  • 00:10:12
    the Crossing Point where AI is better at
  • 00:10:14
    some things and humans are better at
  • 00:10:15
    some things but ai's capabilities are
  • 00:10:17
    improving at an exponential rate while
  • 00:10:19
    ours aren't we don't know how long that
  • 00:10:22
    exponential Improvement will continue or
  • 00:10:24
    if it will level off at some point but
  • 00:10:25
    we're definitely entering a new world
  • 00:10:27
    order now this isn't the first re
  • 00:10:29
    Revolution we've experienced we tamed
  • 00:10:31
    fire we learned how to do agriculture we
  • 00:10:33
    invented the printing press steam power
  • 00:10:35
    Telegraph these were all revolutionary
  • 00:10:37
    changes but they took decades or
  • 00:10:39
    centuries to become widespread in the AI
  • 00:10:42
    Revolution new technology spreads
  • 00:10:44
    worldwide almost instantly dealing with
  • 00:10:46
    this rate of change is a huge challenge
  • 00:10:48
    for both individuals and
  • 00:10:50
    companies I've noticed that people and
  • 00:10:52
    companies tend to fall into different
  • 00:10:54
    kind of mindset categories when it comes
  • 00:10:56
    to AI on one side we have denial the
  • 00:10:59
    belief that AI cannot do my job or we
  • 00:11:02
    don't have time to look into this
  • 00:11:03
    technology this is a dangerous place to
  • 00:11:05
    be a common saying is AI might not take
  • 00:11:08
    your job but people using AI will and
  • 00:11:11
    this is true for both individuals and
  • 00:11:13
    companies on the other side of the scale
  • 00:11:15
    we have panic and despair the belief
  • 00:11:16
    that AI is going to take my job no
  • 00:11:18
    matter what AI is going to make my
  • 00:11:19
    company go bankrupt neither of these
  • 00:11:21
    mindsets are helpful so I propose a
  • 00:11:24
    middle ground a balanced positive
  • 00:11:26
    mindset AI is going to make me my team
  • 00:11:28
    my company insanely productive
  • 00:11:31
    personally with this mindset I feel like
  • 00:11:33
    I've gained superpowers I can go from
  • 00:11:35
    idea to result in so much shorter time I
  • 00:11:38
    can focus more on what I want to achieve
  • 00:11:40
    and less on the grunt work of building
  • 00:11:41
    things and I'm learning a lot faster too
  • 00:11:43
    it's like having an awesome Mentor with
  • 00:11:45
    me at all times this mindset not only
  • 00:11:47
    feels good but it also equips you for
  • 00:11:49
    the future makes you less likely to lose
  • 00:11:51
    your job or your company and more likely
  • 00:11:53
    to thrive in the age of AI despite all
  • 00:11:55
    the
  • 00:11:56
    uncertainty so one important question is
  • 00:11:59
    is human role X needed in the age of AI
  • 00:12:02
    for example are doctors needed
  • 00:12:03
    developers lawyers CEOs uh whatever so
  • 00:12:06
    this question becomes more and more
  • 00:12:08
    relevant as the AI capabilities improve
  • 00:12:11
    well some jobs will disappear for sure
  • 00:12:13
    but for most roles I think we humans are
  • 00:12:15
    still needed someone with domain
  • 00:12:17
    knowledge still needs to decide what to
  • 00:12:19
    ask the AI how to formulate The Prompt
  • 00:12:21
    what context needs to be provided and
  • 00:12:23
    how to evaluate the result AI models
  • 00:12:25
    aren't perfect they can be absolutely
  • 00:12:27
    brilliant sometimes but sometimes also
  • 00:12:30
    terribly stupid they can sometimes
  • 00:12:32
    hallucinate and provide bogus
  • 00:12:33
    information in a very convincing way so
  • 00:12:36
    when should you trust AI response when
  • 00:12:38
    should you double check or do the work
  • 00:12:40
    yourself what about legal compliance
  • 00:12:42
    data security what information can we
  • 00:12:44
    send to an AI model and where is that
  • 00:12:46
    data stored a human expert is needed to
  • 00:12:49
    make these judgment calls and compensate
  • 00:12:51
    for the weaknesses of the AI model so I
  • 00:12:53
    recommend thinking of AI as your
  • 00:12:55
    colleague a genius but also an oddball
  • 00:12:57
    with some personal quirks that you need
  • 00:12:59
    to learn to work with you need to
  • 00:13:00
    recognize when your Genius colleague is
  • 00:13:02
    drunk as a doctor my AI colleague can
  • 00:13:05
    help diagnose rare diseases that I
  • 00:13:06
    didn't even know existed as a lawyer my
  • 00:13:09
    AI colleague could do legal research and
  • 00:13:11
    review contracts allowing me to spend
  • 00:13:12
    more time with my client or as a teacher
  • 00:13:15
    my AI colleague could grade tests help
  • 00:13:18
    generate course content provide
  • 00:13:19
    individual support to students Etc and
  • 00:13:22
    if you're not sure how I can help you
  • 00:13:24
    just ask it I work as X how can you help
  • 00:13:27
    me overall I find that that the
  • 00:13:29
    combination of human plus AI That's
  • 00:13:31
    where the magic lies it's important to
  • 00:13:34
    distinguish between the models and the
  • 00:13:36
    products that build on top of them as a
  • 00:13:38
    user you don't normally interact with
  • 00:13:39
    the model directly instead you interact
  • 00:13:42
    with a product website or a mobile app
  • 00:13:43
    which in turn talks to the model behind
  • 00:13:45
    the scenes products provide a user
  • 00:13:47
    interface and add capabilities and data
  • 00:13:49
    that aren't part of the model itself for
  • 00:13:51
    example the chat GPT product keeps track
  • 00:13:54
    of your message history while the GPT 4
  • 00:13:56
    model itself doesn't have any message
  • 00:13:58
    history as a developer you can use these
  • 00:14:01
    models to build your own AI powered
  • 00:14:02
    products and features for example let's
  • 00:14:05
    say you have an e-learning site you
  • 00:14:06
    could add a chat bot to answer questions
  • 00:14:08
    about the courses or as a recruitment
  • 00:14:10
    company you might build AI powered tools
  • 00:14:12
    to help evaluate candidates in both
  • 00:14:14
    these cases your users interact with
  • 00:14:16
    your product and then your product
  • 00:14:18
    interacts with the model this is done
  • 00:14:19
    via apis or application programming
  • 00:14:21
    interfaces which allow your code to talk
  • 00:14:23
    to the model so here's a simple example
  • 00:14:26
    of using open AI API to talk to GPT not
  • 00:14:29
    a lot of code needed and here's another
  • 00:14:31
    example of the automatic candidate
  • 00:14:33
    evaluation thing I talked about it takes
  • 00:14:35
    a job description and a bunch of CVS in
  • 00:14:37
    a folder and evaluates each candidate
  • 00:14:40
    automatically and incidentally the code
  • 00:14:42
    itself is mostly AI written as a product
  • 00:14:45
    developer you can use AI models kind of
  • 00:14:48
    like an external brain to insert
  • 00:14:50
    intelligence into your product very
  • 00:14:52
    powerful in order to use generative AI
  • 00:14:55
    effectively you need to get good at
  • 00:14:57
    prompt engineering or prompt design as I
  • 00:14:59
    prefer to call it this skill is needed
  • 00:15:01
    both as a user and as a product
  • 00:15:03
    developer because in both cases you need
  • 00:15:05
    to be able to craft effective prompts
  • 00:15:07
    that produce useful results from an AI
  • 00:15:09
    model here's an example let's say I want
  • 00:15:11
    help planning a workshop this prompt is
  • 00:15:14
    unlikely to give useful results because
  • 00:15:16
    no matter how smart the AI is if it
  • 00:15:18
    doesn't know the context of my workshop
  • 00:15:20
    it can only give fague high level
  • 00:15:22
    recommendations the second prompt is
  • 00:15:24
    better now I provided some context this
  • 00:15:26
    is normally done iteratively write a
  • 00:15:28
    prompt look at the result add a
  • 00:15:30
    follow-up prompt to provide more
  • 00:15:31
    information or edit the original prompt
  • 00:15:34
    and rinse and repeat until you get a
  • 00:15:35
    good result in this third approach I ask
  • 00:15:38
    it to interview me so instead of me
  • 00:15:40
    providing a bunch of context up front
  • 00:15:42
    I'm basically saying what do you need to
  • 00:15:43
    know in order order to help me and then
  • 00:15:45
    it will propose a workshop agenda after
  • 00:15:47
    I often combine these two I provide a
  • 00:15:49
    bit of context and then I tell it to ask
  • 00:15:51
    me if it needs any more information
  • 00:15:53
    these are just some examples of prompt
  • 00:15:54
    engineering techniques so overall the
  • 00:15:57
    better you get at prompt engineering the
  • 00:15:59
    faster and better results you will get
  • 00:16:00
    from AI there are plenty of courses
  • 00:16:02
    books videos articles to help you learn
  • 00:16:04
    this but the most important thing is is
  • 00:16:06
    to practice and Learn by doing a nice
  • 00:16:08
    side effect is that you will become
  • 00:16:09
    better at communicating in general since
  • 00:16:11
    prompt engineering is really all about
  • 00:16:13
    Clarity and effective
  • 00:16:15
    communication I think the next Frontier
  • 00:16:17
    for generative AI is autonomous agents
  • 00:16:19
    with tools these are AI powerered
  • 00:16:21
    software entities that run on their own
  • 00:16:23
    rather than just sitting around waiting
  • 00:16:24
    for you to prompt them all the time so
  • 00:16:26
    you go down to Einstein in your basement
  • 00:16:28
    and do what a good good leader would do
  • 00:16:29
    for a team you give him a high level
  • 00:16:31
    Mission and the tools needed to
  • 00:16:32
    accomplish it and then open the door and
  • 00:16:34
    let him out to run his own show without
  • 00:16:36
    micromanagement the tools could be
  • 00:16:38
    things like access to the internet
  • 00:16:40
    access to money ability to send and
  • 00:16:42
    receive messages order pizza or whatever
  • 00:16:45
    for this prompt engineering becomes even
  • 00:16:47
    more important because your autonomous
  • 00:16:49
    tool wielding agent can do a lot of good
  • 00:16:51
    or a lot of harm depending on how well
  • 00:16:54
    you craft that mission
  • 00:16:55
    statement all right let's wrap it up
  • 00:16:58
    here are the key things I hope you will
  • 00:17:00
    remember from this video generative AI
  • 00:17:02
    is a super useful tool that can help
  • 00:17:04
    both you your team and your company in a
  • 00:17:06
    big way the better you understand it the
  • 00:17:08
    more likely it is to be an opportunity
  • 00:17:10
    rather than a threat generative AI is
  • 00:17:12
    more powerful than you think the biggest
  • 00:17:14
    limitation is not the technology but
  • 00:17:17
    your imagination like what can I do and
  • 00:17:19
    your prompt engineering skills how do I
  • 00:17:21
    do it prompt engineeringdesign is a
  • 00:17:24
    crucial skill like all new skills just
  • 00:17:27
    accept that you will kind of suck at at
  • 00:17:29
    first but you'll improve over time with
  • 00:17:31
    deliberate practice so my best tip is
  • 00:17:34
    experiment make this part of your
  • 00:17:36
    day-to-day life and the Learning Happens
  • 00:17:38
    automatically hope this video was
  • 00:17:40
    helpful thanks for watching
