It Was So Funny

Yeah, no, it really is. Yeah, I agree with you. There's a lot of things, like you have no idea how many times I used AI for my exposés, just to bridge the gap with the language.

Yep, yep, yeah, that makes complete sense. And if you know how to, so a funny story, Walt, guys, three years ago when AI started becoming a topic du jour, right, when it was really a topic du jour, like we were all talking about it for a long time, but like for most people, and I started talking to people, I'm like, you know, one of the biggest hurdles that we're going to have, both with the elderly and the young, is teaching them how to prompt. And there's a business model there of how to prompt.

Thing is, LLMs closed that gap, and they started basically creating their self-serving, self-training LLM prompt models. So it's like, you can go in there and say, okay, can you give me a class over the next six months on how to properly prompt a large language model, right? And so you can do that now. But at the time, it seemed like a business opportunity.

Yeah, there was a whole group of people that started doing that. I swear to God, when ChatGBT first launched, there was like 100,000 people that were like, this is the prompt class. Like, oh my God, it was all over the timeline.

It was everywhere. Right, and what I wanted to do was not to end users. What I wanted to do was actually teach corporate America how to use it.

That was really my angle. Yeah, I thought it was so funny. Everybody had their AI prompt book.

It was like, pay me $200, and you'll get all my customized prompts. There were so many of those. It was so funny.
