Artificial Intelligence, AI, Machine Learning, Google DeepMind, OpenAI, ChatGPT, Anthropic, Tech, Coding, AI News, Large Language Models and... (most importantly)... optimism.

AGI rolls around only once. Let's make the best of it.

On this channel, my goal is to help everyone understand AI and it's implications better. To prepare for what's coming next.

The most important rule is "Don't Panic".

The second rule is keep learning.

Thank you for joining me for this ride.
