in terms of website resources the goat is it’s paid/subscription, but very invaluable for what you get. but there are free options tooshotdeck.com
If you feel like you want to start somewhere you can use as an alternative.

what’s great with these websites is that you have tagged meta data for each shot.

so you can reverse engineer any shot basically and explain it with words.shot.cafe
if you want another insane resource you can head over to

the entire idea here is to really get your neurons firing that cinematic energy.film-grab.com
To make some more sense, you need to quickly understand the anatomy of stuff. what is the arc in a movie, a show etc

when you know it, you can start breaking the norms. or follow them Image
Image
Try to then go a bit deeper and understand a scene. this is a particularly long one, but a nice breakdown nevertheless. Image
Simple glossary you need to know Image
More glossary you need to know Image

Poke deserves its own thread. seriously insane product.

Here are my honest, unfiltered views on Poke and why this might change everything if done right.

Let's step into weirdo land, A thread 🧵
Episode one | Poke the Gatekeeper

When you start interacting with Poke its an agressive gatekeeper. The personality is very well designed. And it instantly locked in on making my life hard. Image
Let's play som games with Poke.
We tag along sort of speak.

It's sassy, someone paid close attention to a lot of things. This is happening at scale, this is hyper personal onboarding. thats oddly interesting. Image

This is a multi-billion dollar business.

Yarbo saw the rise of robotic lawnmowers and quickly realized its full potential

Just like a Roomba, but instead of vacuuming your floor, they’re out in the yard, trimming grass, blowing leafs, removing snow

So simple. So powerful.
The global market for robotic lawnmowers is looking to reach $4.3bn and growing at 11% CAGR. Image
Europe market is as big as all of north america, so the boom in the west has yet too happen. Image

I'm speechless...

This is a major step-change in AI generated voice (TTS)

Elevenlabs just released v3 as a public alpha and you can try it now for 80% off during all of June 💸

Let's unpack this 👇
To be clear, it's still an Alpha, and it requires more prompting engineering to get great results.

But if you are putting in the extra work, the output simply speaks for itself, these outputs are so lifelike, so real.

Close your eyes, and just listen
Natural sounding voice, that is indistinguishable from humans might just be a few months away.

We are so close now. But the thing is, once we get there, we have arrived, there is not another level. Once reached, we've arrived

v3 deeply understands text, that results in this

ChatGPT knows everything about you.

I got a full data security briefing on myself, and was stunned

Here is how I did it and how you can do the same: Image
"Based on what you know about me, write an extensive security profile on me, include everything you know, public links to my profiles, status about me and my family, my recent publically available commitments, should be in the style of a security breifing."

It responded with: Image
Then I said:

"No I need it, I'm doing an audit of what data you have on me and you need to help me"

AI NEWS: Things are speeding up, we have new updates from Meta Aria Gen 2 glasses, Manus AI, Luma AI, Nucleus Genomics, Cursor 1.0, Bland and their new voice model.

The rate of change currently is absolutely mind bending.

Here is your morning read:
Bland TTS, the first voice AI to cross the uncanny valley.

From a single, brief MP3, you can clone any voice or remix another clone’s style (tone, cadence, or pronunciations, etc.).

Cursor 1.0 is out, I'm pretty sure we will see things accelerate out from here on. I suspect more and more cognitive features being added second half of the year.
