It's been a while since I've done a video. This one is going to be an updated AI video. I'm gonna be talking about all the different changes that have been happening with AI, AI agents, using AI the best way, as well as a tutorial for you to get started using AI if you're brand new using it. I just got done teaching an amazing class online about this to a group that I've been working with. And so I wanna bring some of that to you here today. Number one, a lot of the landscape of AI has changed. And before we go any further, I wanna tell you this, is that if you try to understand everything out of the gate, try to figure it all out, you might have something inside of you that's like, I gotta figure it out before I use it because we're trained, we're taught, I gotta figure it out before I use this thing. The truth is that really you just have to start chatting with it. You just have to talk to the AI and even say, hey, I don't know what to say, I don't know how to ask this question, can you help me with this? And that will literally get you 10 times further than most people. Most people won't even touch artificial intelligence tools because they think that it's too complicated, too hard and things like that, when it's one of the best ways that can help you brainstorm things. Now, two of the best ways to start with AI, again, that's what this is, that's what this video is. This is kind of a beginner's crash course tutorial on using artificial intelligence. Meta.ai, they just released an incredible version like about a month ago. They call it MuseSpark. And MuseSpark is one of the highest quality, smartest AI tools that's out there. Meta, they own Facebook and Instagram and WhatsApp. They've released this and this is actually the only really high quality AI that's out there that's free. There's other free options that exist, but they're not as high quality as what Meta is offering to people. And so I would encourage you to check this out. Check out using the Meta.ai tool. And specifically if you're using it, I would select contemplating, multi-chain parallel reasoning. What this does, this actually deploys 16 individual AI agents to process any task that you're familiar with
