“Don’t sell products, sell emotions”
My lungs aged 19 years after having COVID.
After 18 months and numerous interventions, my lungs still have not regained full capacity.
+ In 2021, my lung capacity was age 26.
+ By Nov 2022, after getting covid, my lung capacity was age 45.
+ Now 2024, my lung capacity is age 37.
My covid symptoms were very mild and lasted only 3 days. Lung therapies below.
With the rise of of gen ai, we are going to see an interesting clash of cultures as new creatives start & learn with gen ai tools first
A big cohort of coders, visual artists, musicians & video makers will go midjourney, dalle, suno & udio, runway before photoshop, canva, final cut, ableton and fruity loops
Expect some wildly different styles as this younger cohort learns creativity at a higher abstraction level, and then learns traditional media & producitivity tools backwards
Also expect 90% of the previous cohort to cry and whine about it, "this isn't real art"
The other 10% will embrace the new tech and build the most amazing things you've ever seen by combining new and old techniques
Seeing three of my angel investments top the charts now:
We are so back.
this is the most incredible status update of all time
My 30-minute Udio Journey to discovering this Dune The Musical track.
Ok, so yes I have been running into errors on Udio.
Yes, I wasn't BLOWN away by what others were sharing. I could def hear more clarity, but there was also a...tinniness? to the outputs that didn't quite like. It definitely has a distinct SOUND, as doesn't Suno. Much like visual AI tools, each has a "look".
And yes, I went on to try to make a good morning Twitter musical hit to see how I liked it in comparison with my Suno one, thinking it probably couldn't compare.
Well, I couldn't give it a good test due to the errors, but I went to the community page, and the first one on there was this. So, I guess you can say I am not an appreciator of Udio and look forward to playing. Kudos to BobbyB who generated this brilliance.
From beautiful to creepy…

At least I know Dario Argento is an actual director and Italian horror master

Active ingredient shot w/ Midjourney & Magnific - Supplements💊
PROMPT:
The image shows a capsule that is half real raspberries and half a transparent capsule filled with a brown substance, which could likely be a powdered form of the raspberries. This represents a dietary supplement or nutraceutical, which people use for its potential health benefits, such as antioxidant properties. The visual metaphor here is designed to illustrate the idea of harnessing the natural essence of blueberries in a convenient form for consumption

The most successful people I know are all obsessed with speed.
My buddy @thesamparr is rich af and STILL moves insanely fast.
He launched samslist.co in a weekend.
Speed is a superpower.
If you stress-test the boundaries and experiment with the “impossibles,” you’ll quickly discover that most limitations are a fragile collection of socially reinforced rules you can choose to break at any time.

I created an app from idea to production in less than half a day using ChatGPT, and SwiftShip ... and already generated 3 sales in less than 48h hours.
Here's the full process synthesized👇
💡Ideation:
When needed I'm always checking word pronunciation in Google Translate, so I've mainly a personal need for a minimal, and simple app that helps check accent/articulation in one click.
🔎Market Research:
Starting from a personal need, I've done a quick market research using @TryAstroApp and AppFollow then I decided to build an app MVP that pronounces words and helps in checking articulations in multiple languages accents.
*With help from chatGPT and reusability from SwiftShip boilerplate I estimated the app MVP to be completely done in a few hours so I've bet more on validating with the MVP rather than a deep market research.
👨💻Development:
🎨Design/UI:
✅Metadata & Distribution:
... and Voila the app is currently live in the appstore.
💰 After less than 48 hours of distribution, the app already got 3 sales.
*I may record a video with more details for every step of the process if I have some time later and if it's needed by a few people.

PROMPT:
A close-up of crystal-clear water droplets resting on the vibrant, veined surface of a green leaf each droplet acts as a natural magnifying glass, revealing the intricate details of the leaf's texture. The light catches and enhances the droplets, creating a fresh and pure ambiance. The image is composed to emphasize the tranquility and beauty of nature, with the droplets sharply in focus against the leaf's patterned backdrop
The big education crisis caused by AI is not going to be in schools (there was cheating before AI & we can figure out AI uses that boost learning), but after graduation.

From my book Co-Intelligence
This is absolutely frightening.
* 46% of British Muslims sympathise with Hamas.
* 75% do not believe Hamas committed atrocities on Oct 7 (40% among the university-educated).
* 32% want to see Shariah law implemented in the UK.
