I am indeed very proud to annouce that I'll be pitching ICM at Santader WorkCafé Valdebebas in Madrid! I'll do a live demo of how you can turn a bunch of emails and loose knowlege in a working system in under 30 minutes. For this a huge thank you to @Jake Van Clief and every one who made this community possible! To all ICMers in Madrid, café con leche is still standing - just say you know who @Shirsho Guha is and I'll buy you one! https://lnkd.in/p/eq7wfZNk

I started this community in March. For months I've been reading your questions. Where do I start? What's a skill? How do I get this working on my own files? What even is an agent? So I rebuilt Foundations to answer all of it, in 11 new lessons full animated, voiced and structured to answer as many as I could. They are not just AI slop either, I spent Hours on every video, every concept.I deleted and redid lessons over and over until they finally worked, and what you see is what survived. I have been adding and spending hours upon hours adding more resources and working with others to provide value here since March. And I want to keep doing that. Now usually course creators lock up their entire community behind a pay wall at this point...I thought about it honestly. We would probably make more money if I put more behind a paywall. However, decided not only am I going to keep it free, but I'm also lowering my prices for premium as well. From $27 to $11 a month, everyone told me was a bad idea, that it was too low of a price for the hours we are putting in but I have faith in one thing, YOU. Its only a bad idea if people don't support, work together and make this worth it. I want to make info more accessible. This community has let me hire people, pay people, and build things I never could have built alone. I've got a team whose families count on this company, and a baby on the way, so I've been thinking hard about how this place keeps growing. More free lessons, more of my time, more people to help run it. I pay the instructors in my live programs $150 an hour, our mods are working hard and were working for free before I started paying and every free video here takes me hours to make. If enough of you chip in a little, all of that keeps going for everyone. So that's the ask. $11 a month, about 37 cents a day.

I'm going to the Big Data & AI World, on the 4th and 5th of november, at IFEMA, Madrid. I would love to meet with anyone from this community there - you're invited to a café con leche! Here is some more information on the event and my self: https://lnkd.in/p/e-ixF4_U Entrees are free

I gave a talk at my company’s ten year expo this week and wanted to share the recording here. It's a high-level look at some of the ways we're putting AI to work in an automation manufacturer, and I got a lot of nice compliments from folks afterward. I walk through three levels, and each one gives the agent more context than the last. The first is a quote auditor that runs on a checklist. It reviews a 200-line vendor quote against our drawings and order summary and hands back the five lines that actually need my attention. The second is a panel generator that runs on an engineer's rulebook. It turns a pile of components and about a hundred layout rules into a draft electrical panel, taking a job that could eat days down to as little as 15 minutes. The third is a portfolio assistant that runs on the whole company. It sits in on every meeting through a transcription app we built ourselves, so nothing leaves the building, and it connects what it hears across all our projects. That being said, the theme I think everyone here can take away has nothing to do with automation. It's not about the tools you use or keeping up with the latest model. Out of the box, these models give you average output. What makes them valuable is your expertise, written down and handed to an agent. The same message you see me trying to explain in all of my content, highlighted with real examples. Take a look and let me know what you think!

Jake's video with a sprinkle of hyperframes and ta-dam! It's just amazing what we can do now... (Note: I would love to use my own voice with elevenlabs, but I'm sick and sound like a walrus...)
