I have not had Internet since 2am so there will be no call today. Please post here if you have any questions that need answered. Thank you for your understanding! -Keith

Here is the breakdown of the automated Instagram posts. Pre-Reqs (Skip if you already have a free or paid account with the service): 1.

Finalize the Setup - Tapping Done or Finish completes the conversion. - Your account is now a Business (Professional) account, giving you access to business-ready features like Insights, API access, and posting automation later. 

OpenAI just dropped GPT-5, an while its great, there are a few things to note. It’s not “one big brain” anymore. It’s more like a team of AIs that can swap in and out depending on the job. That means it can give you the right balance of speed, cost, and deep thinking when you need it. 💡 How It Works Instead of one model doing everything, GPT-5 is a system made up of: - Reasoning models for harder, multi-step thinking. - Non-reasoning models for quick, snappy answers. - A smart router that decides which one to use on the fly. You can pick your flavor:(This should be coming soon, right now I see GPT-5 and GPT-5 Think) - GPT-5 (full power) - GPT-5 Mini (cheaper but still sharp) - GPT-5 Nano (super fast, super cheap) 📈 What It’s Really Good At - Coding & Automation: Great for fixing bugs, building tools, and untangling complex problems. - Multi-Step Workflows: Can plan, take actions, track progress, and keep context from start to finish. - Frontend Development: Produces better-looking and more functional web apps than before. (im thinking we might be able to build custom SEO data dashboards... just give me a few days to figure that out ) - Handling Big Jobs: Can process massive inputs (great for full-site audits or huge content docs). - Better Accuracy: Around 80% fewer factual mistakes than older models. - Health & Sensitive Topics: Much stronger at handling health-related content accurately and responsibly, which is huge if you work in industries where trust and compliance matter. 🗝 Prompting Tips - Control answer length: Tell it “short,” “medium,” or “long” using the new verbosity setting. - Control thinking time: Use reasoning_effort for quick answers or deep analysis. - Live updates: It can tell you what it’s doing as it works. - Cleaner tool inputs: Plays nicer with other tools now, making integrations smoother. 💭 Why This Matters For Agencies & Small Biz Owners - Run more reliable automations for audits, keyword research, and bulk content. - Build mini-tools or client-facing apps faster with better code and visuals. - Work with huge datasets without losing context or accuracy. - For niches like health, finance, or compliance, you can draft content with much higher accuracy and fewer risks.

Moving today’s training call to Thursday’s timeslot We will be learning the new Google Vids platform for ai videos.

Google just launched Google Vids (you should see it in you GDrive). I was able to access it in my Google Workspace account without activating, but you may need to activate access to your members. I am currently testing it, but wanted to announce to you guys so you can start using it! It uses Veo3, which is the best ai video platform in my experience, for now at least.
