Default Good Use Of AI

A lot of folks are hesitant about using AI for just about anything.

However, I have found that NotebookLM by Google has been helpful to me.

The biggest thing it has done for me is to summarize my own work. For me, this is helpful to create sales nuggets to help sell my books. In addition, NotebookLM helps to create podcasts about my materials. However, I am looking at other programs to create podcasts with just one speaker, rather than two that are used with this program.

Here is a link:

Hope this helps.

Default Incredibly realistic AI voice conversation...

Hi Millard,

This is diffferent, but I think you'll see the relationship...

This is a very realistic voice demo for AI... You can try a conversation with it!

I did it using my phone, with the phone's in-built microphone... I think you can also do it on desktop or laptop, with a microphone, though I didn't try it that way...

Crossing the uncanny valley of conversational voice

Thanks Dien

I was just thinking that using NotebookLM and its podcast feature using a man and woman to talk about whatever you put in it could help you sell something via a website. Once you have the summary of whatever file or webpage you have placed in NotebookLM, you can have the AI generated podcast placed on the sales page to help sell the product. The summary can help answer questions. Additionally, the Q and A feature can help potential customers get the answers needed about the product.

Moreover, you can take the summary and edit to suit your sales needs.

The biggest benefit I see is that AI can be a time-saver for work you have already done when it comes to editing or creating sales copy. Jim Edwards' Copy and Content AI is a good example of creating sales copy with AI. It is a great place to start... then you edit.

Default By accident, I found a marketer using it...

Hi Millard,

Funnily enough, just yesterday I bought an ebook… It was about writing stories for marketing purposes.

After I ordered it and went to the "Thankyou" page, he had an unannounced "Bonus"... It was a summary of the book as an interview between two people!

This "bonus" was not mentioned on the sales page… So it was a complete surprise you would only know about once you ordered the product…

He was completely up front… The summary "conversation" was created by NotebookLM!

I felt nothing was wrong with doing that… It was unannounced, so it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Also, he was completely up front that this conversational summary was produced by AI.

I think if some people can't be bothered reading the book, or don't have enough time, they could enjoy the NotebookLM-generated conversational summary!

Just an interesting idea of how one marketer is using NoteookLM

The marketer selling the report was Jim Hamilton, who I think is Canadian...

Best wishes,

Dien

There is an author named JASON Hamilton who does a lot with AI and has some good tips.

Interestingly enough, I just listened to a summary of a full book by a friend who wanted me to use NotebookLM to create a summary and briefing notes. The AI generated discussion was of a mystery novel and basically discussed the WHOLE book... including the ending. In this case, I think the AI did well, but gave away too much. With that being said, a briefing doc was created and with carefully editing, could be used as a descriptor on a sales page or part of another sales process.

The value of AI to me, is saving time doing editing, outlining, and summarizing. The creative work comes from yourself.

Default Re: Good Use Of AI

Frank Kern spent a boatload of money developing an AI tool to help him in writing. After seeing him demonstrate it a couple of different times, it looks like it has promise.

The website is www.ojoy.ai

If you are on Frank's email list, you have seen him demo the software.

The software is similar to Jim Edwards' CopyandContentAI, but seems to be a step up simply because you can TALK to the software and tell it what you want COVERSATIONALLY, and it will follow your directions. That specific touch is a real game changer to me.... NO ChatGPT type of prompts whatsoever!

Just so you know, I am NOT an affiliate, don't work for Frank, or anything like that. It is just something interesting to look at, I think.

Cheers,

Millard

Default A Common-Sense SECRET about ChatGBT and other Ai Copywriter Systems

Thanks Gordon, Dien,

POINT ONE - All the Current Ai are Trained By STEALING content from all over the Internet.

Everything YOU and I own has ALREADY been Stolen.
IF
We
Put
it
on
The Internet.

So ChatGBT is based on THEFT, Greed, CROOKEDNESS.

POINT TWO - The Smartest People I Swap Ideas with. And whose Masterminds
I plug into.

ASSURE ME.

That CHATGbt And other Ai Programs CANNOT Innovate.
Come up with Totally New Ideas.

POINT THREE - Because Everything I do.

I mean 100% is Based on Combining 2 or 3 or 4 or more 7 or 8 figure Ideas
And
The
Hidden Psychology underneath
In Weird and Twisted Ways.

Marketing with Nursery Rhythms - for Example.

ChatGBT and other Ai are NOT YET a Threat to what ANY of us do.

YET.

But YET may be getting Closer.

I Read that a Robot Soldier Prototype in a Military Research LAB - Got Loose
In Israel. Killed a Bunch of Scientists. Until a Soldier BLEW it up with a Rocket Propelled Grenade.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - HOWEVER...

Are You HEARING the Ai that Sounds EXACTLY like top Music Stars?

Are YOU Seeing The DEEPFAKES that look Exactly Like Movie Stars?

Are You Hop and Skipping thru the 1000's of Ai Story Telling Videos on YouTube.com ?

Written by Ai
Cover Pic is Ai
Voice is Ai
BORING AS GET - OUT.

Even The Pretend - FAKE - x-rated Videos on YouTube Are BAIT and Switch BORING. (To prevent them from Being Cancelled by Youtube.)

Cover Photo of a Woman And Her Mule

Title - "My Wife Left Me For Her Mule"

And that Title is a MILD Version of The REAL Title. I Didn't bother Taking time to Check it out. Cuz it's a Vanilla Romance with her Mule.

The Sheer GALL Makes me Laugh.

Gotta Give them Credit for GRABBING my Attn.

Default A Good Example of AI Generated Music

Mike Adams of www.naturalnews.com has quite a collection of AI generated music and video.

His first example was a Christmas video about no Christmas without you, however, I found a nifty video called "Going Back in Time is Coming Home."

Here is a link:

https://music.brighteon.com/Posts/20...omin-home.html

Mike has mentioned in the past he has experience creating music... this video is nice because of the nostalgia and memories it helps to bring up in your mind.

Mike doesn't mention how much was AI generated and how much was his creation... but it is fun, nevertheless.

Default Got Any Examples of Ai Robot SOUNDING Like Famous Singers?

Thanks Millard,

I Did a Bunch of testing on Medium.com
to
Ordinary Folks.

And Discovered that CELEBRITY Article Titles OUT-PULLED
every thing else by 10 to 100X

With That in Mind.

Did You Find someone FAKING a STARS Voice?

Default Recreating a Star's Voice

Thanks, Glenn

There is one company that could do that, although they don't specifically say that. Basically, ELEVEN LABS says that if you want to create your own avatar with your voice (for training videos, etc)... You just need to provide several seconds of your voice and they create a clone...

I tried it ... and it is SCARY good.

Cheers,

Millard
