Elon Musk is planning to build 1000 starships a year

He's also build an AI chip factory bigger than all the Car and Battery Factories

And Factories for 10M Optimus Robots

You have no Idea what's coming

I agree with this assessment

Microsoft's stack is Legacy

They're literally funding it's complete and utter demise --

And it's already starting to show.

Altman might just run out of money

But the funny thing is -- he's screwed Microsoft too. How much have they poured into what is essentially a bunch of Talent

Maybe Zuckerberg is right to just pay 100M per employee to starve them of progress

The only groups progressing seem to be progressing on sound terms are Anthropic, Google and XAI 😆

Elon Musks new compensation package is far more than it appears.

It wasn't really just about his pay packet.

It was a 75 percent endorsement to change everything.

He shared something in the presentation that blew my mind. He showed a Chip Factory bigger than all Tesla car Factories combined.

The Goal? To make AI chips 1/10 the cost of NVIDIAs.

That means AI for consumers. Not just the rich.

Cybercab robots will start rolling off the production line in April at a rate of 1 a minute 🤯

Optimus robots could surgery better than doctors - And they’ll cost only $20,000.

Elon says they will make the world 10 times more productive.

When work costs almost nothing, everything becomes cheap.

People who thought Tesla only makes cars were hopelessly wrong.

If Energy = Compute

Compute = Tokens

Tokens = Work

And Work = Money

That means Energy = Money.

Why in Australia are we therefore trying to Limit the Energy we Produce and Use? 🤣

Most new AI apps will fail IMO

All the ones that Mimic SaaS

Sure they give you the promise of making it easier -- but the NUMBER of subscriptions is going to kill them in time

People will simply learn AI and the AI will get smarter than the wrappers

Look at Duolingo. It's Tanking and it's number 1 competitor is just free AI

Every wrapper dies the moment its users learn to steer the underlying model better than the wrapper itself could.

Duolingo, Character.ai, Photoleap, Elsa Speak, dozens of flashcard apps: same pattern.

They all sell training wheels for a bicycle that people quickly learn to ride naked at 100 kph.

AskBeevs is cooking 👨‍🍳

I started teaching some kids and I showed a few people here and there

But something's going on. People must be getting value 🤣

In the detail the favourite post is the section on Prompt Injection to work around limits and what that all means 🤣

So I was sitting with the old man in Vegas yesterday afternoon after we walked our feet off

And he goes: "hmm, Tim I have a problem for you"

"We have these meetings, at an association I'm involved in -- and the minutes are an absolute pain to write". Could we build an agent to write the minutes

I'm like - "Yeah"

I said do you Record the meetings.

Yep.

Can you get a voice transcript?

"Yeah"

So I said well - Let's build an agent to take that transcript and write the minutes.

"oK he says"

So we get on his laptop.

Open the command prompt.

Launch Claude Code. get the install string.

We install it.

We get an API key.

It's ready to go.

Then I simply say: "Dear Claude Code Make Folder X the Working Folder"

"please write me a python App that will look in a folder you create called Recordings. Then I want you to write me minutes that are structured like file Y - and I put the file in the working folder"

Claude goes no worries and goes off and builds the Python Code and then it asks me for an Anthropic API key.

So I go get one of those, we add the command it's asking for in the terminal and setup a virtual machine.

Ding d**g... Run the App.

And Wolla.

The Transcript is turned into Fully Formatted and Drafted Meeting Minutes. Done.

Took probably 7 mins.

And he's like.

Wow.

We probably have 3 meetings a week

The minutes for each meeting probably take an hour.

That's 3 hours a week.

Or 156 hours a year. Which is 19.5 days of work.

And you just automated it in 7 mins.

I said yeah.

And he goes how much will it cost to run say 3 a week for a year?

I said, umm probably about $6.

So we're now doing 19.5 days work for $6.

I said yeah.

Phworr

I lifted the hood on the AI classes and 44 of you sent across an email 🔥🔥

I'm super impressed actually

It's going to be pretty wild

I can tell you one thing. It won't be what you expect

The thing with this tech is - it's going to shred everything that's currently digital across the entire economy, and it'll happen far faster than you think

If you're still working the physical world you'll be fine for a while. But if you do 'knowledge work' -- and don't know how to use AI -- your basically already stuffed

I went to a conference last week

I met with 102 different companies. I took notes and took brocheres

Yesterday when I was doing some washing I took 158 photos of the physical brocheres and put them in a folder

Then I also have it my notes that was in a Text file

Then I just asked an AI agent to examine all the photos, read all the notes and write me a report on the conference discussions

But not only did I want a transcript. I asked it to categorise all the vendor. Assign importance and suitability and recommend to me what I should do next

Then I just let it run

About 35 mins later the report was done

I had a detailed review -- and it aligned almost perfectly with what I would have written because the notes were written in such a way they could act as prompt guiders

That's a skill I've picked up. Writing in a style to help the agent frame the outputs

Now you could say that process was cheating

It cost me about $8

I'd estimate to do that task manually would probably take 2 or 3 days and is very fiddly and not rewarding

What's your daily rate?

Like a bad cheap consultant would be $1000 a day

An offshore consultant might be $300 a day

So $600-$2000 worth of work for $8.

And on that task I don't think a human would do better... And a human can still review it and refine it if they wish.

Do the maths.

AI is coming and from what I've seen in the US it's not going to be pretty

Australia is pretty asleep on it all

I have 13 soldiers going to learn it with me on Google Meet

I've spent probably 8k on AI absolutely hammering it's capabilities and learning what works and what doesn't

I want to help common people learn

I don't want to charge people. I just want to create new opportunities for everyone and hope that floating a few boats opens some opportunities for fun collaborations

It's so so easy - you have no idea, but very very few 'get it' yet - and I include in that the tech industry as a whole

Which in a way is no longer a modern industry

So if you have any inclination or just want to see what's going on, you know what to do

Who remembers when they increased the cost of MS0365 from about 119 dollars to like 179 dollars or something like that to include CoPilot?

I think I was angry about it at the time

Turns out, if you Cancelled your Plan they presented another option to retain the Classic Plan so nothing changed

But you could only access it when you initiated cancellation

So the ACCC is taking legal action against them for misleading customers 🤣

And TBH in this case they deserve it

I cancelled my subscription and haven't been back 🤣

Well I've just spent 2 days at an AI conference in the USA

And my key learnings are boiled down to this

Society is boiled down into 3 groups

1. The Academic Aristocrat Types that think they control all knowledge and Power

2. The Humble Servants who work jobs and administrate things and keeps society moving

And

3. Dumb people that are just looking for Food and Adult Relations

And the top people think they control group 2, and they don't even tolerate group 3. They despise them

What I learnt is, Group 1 cannot deal with AI and AI is going to completely shred group 2

And it actually gives Massive Agency and a power to Group 3 if Group 3 is smart enough to seize it

Unlike any time in history group 3 has all the knowledge of Group 1 and 2 and nothing really lose if they hussle and are smart

And the economic bar to access that knowledge is now almost nothing compared to any time in history

Honestly if your not studying AI right now you should be

It's the biggest Lay up skill in history

I think I might even start running some Google Meet Calls teaching it for fun if anyone's interested when I get back to Australia

PM me if you'd like to attend!
