We need to clear something up as an industry.

AI Agents.

“AI Agent” keeps getting slapped onto everything and everything AI-related. I get why.

It’s good for marketing. It sounds cooler than “a prompt with tools”.

But what should it *mean*? But the word *agent* suggests the AI has *agency* - the ability to decide what to do. Agency isn’t something that most agents have though.

So, here’s what I’m proposing. Levels of AI agents.

Your customers aren't cheap. They're confused.

If they're not buying, that's usually why.

I learned this the hard way:

→ Had 2 offers do $250k+ in sales each
→ Had 1 do $750

The difference? Not value. The flop was arguably the best value of the three.

The real issue? Clarity.

Here's the deal:

I went viral 3 times in my first 30 days on X.

Huge hack: Formatting your tweets.

How to do it right 👇 Most people overlook the visual component of writing.

Know what else people overlook? Large chunks of text.

Formatting...
• pulls the eye forward
• makes complex ideas feel simple
• stimulates the mind through variety

Feel how nice this looks?

That time I launched on Christmas Eve and made $10,000+ in 24 hours

And everything I learned from the experience:

(this is a long one but a good one, so strap in folks—) This project starts with @thejustinwelsh.

His flagship course in 2022 was barely over an hour.

Yet, Content OS seemed to have been purchased by every creator I know.

It teaches you one thing, really well.

I challenged myself to create something like that for myself.

I used to be a lot more self-conscious about content.

I got this from my first director of marketing. That you can't post something unless it's perfect.

(Because it might make us "look bad")

If that's you too, this thread is for you 🧵 As a solo, chasing perfection usually left me with a whole lot of nothing.

No content. No audience. No progress.

How many times have I run the cycle of create, critique, delete, repeat?

The human brain is wired with COGNITIVE BIASES.

As a content creator, you can either ignore them, or use them to your advantage.

A mini-thread on these hidden influences (+an AI prompt to bookmark): Researchers across decades of psychological study have identified a hidden network of COGNITIVE BIASES shaping every decision we make.

They're operating in your and my mind right now, whether we like it or not.

(More on that in a sec.)

People are ignoring your posts because they don't *feel* anything when they read them.

Steal my ONE simple framework I use with everything I write.

(It works for any topic.) 👇 Btw, I give you a simple AI prompt at the end to help you run this content inspiration framework.

So if you're into it, don't bail early.

Okay, onto the goods...

Midjourney v6 was released with the last 24 hours.

I made my first MJ image in early beta 18 months ago.

16 comparisons of then versus now:

An audiobook will boost your biz (or your wallet),

but voice artists cost $250-$5000+

How to make a realistic audiobook with AI in minutes: Marketing legend @AlexHormozi just had the biggest book launch in history, and he included a free audiobook with his regular book.

Why?

More content formats = more content consumption.

Voice is an amazing format, but previously it was too much work to be worth the reward.

We did $11,483.47 in sales in our first 27 hours.

Give me 3 minutes and I'll show you the hidden framework behind our course sales page:

(Warning - this mega-post will make you $$$ and you're going to want to BOOKMARK it) 👇 Doing sales feels icky.

Even writing the word feels icky.

But, when you have a fantastic product priced appropriate to its value, you owe it to your audience (and yourself) to be persuasive.

Every purchase is potentially improving someone's life.

MagickML is my favorite no-code/low-code AI builder.

It's in alpha.

Since you may be 1,000s deep in the waitlist,

let me show you around.

See why bots in @MagickML are 1,000X more powerful than "chat with your PDF" 🔸 What is it?
MagickML is kind of like LangChain and Bubble had a baby.

Like LangChain: Build powerful AI automations and agents.

Like Bubble: But in a no-code/low-code environment.

Software engineers move faster with Magick. And non-engineers like me can use it too.

10 AI tools that you should be using right now.

Like, really.

This is what I actually use for my business. 👇 🔸 @elevenlabsio

Text to Speech synthesis that actually sounds human.

I've tested ElevenLabs head-to-head with other leaders in the space.

Nothing else compares. Winner in both the speed of processing and the audio quality. Pricing is very fair for what you get.

If you want to use GPT-4 but don't want to pay for ChatGPT Pro, there's another way.

Put the periods into this URL :
assistant(dot)bloat(dot)app

Put in the API key from your OpenAI account.

You only pay for your usage, which for most will be way less than $20/month. Only caveat is you have to have GPT-4 enabled for your account, which is still on a waitlist I think.

I got approved quickly but am developing some products on it. Regular people might get approved more slowly.

The waitlist is here: openai.com/waitlist/gpt-4…

I got into Midjourney on June 22, 2022.

In those days, AI image gen felt like magic. The images, while flawed, were amazing.

Now, with the improved version 4 and powerful v 5, it's like living in a different reality.

Witness 9 months of radical progress in image generation: I'm going to show you side-by-sides of prompts I tested on my first day with MJ vs today.

I gave the exact same text prompt in all cases.

Note: V5 may look worse than V4 because it's still being worked on and it requires a different style of prompt.

The leap is mind-blowing...

GPT-4 is taking the world by storm.

And every AI influencer has a bundle of 250+ prompts as a retweet giveaway.

I'm going to give you just FOUR prompts.

4 whose structure will teach you things.

4 that are actually good.

4 that are free.

(Copy these 4 ChatGPT megaprompts👇) First, here's how this thread works.

I'll introduce each prompt with an orange diamond: 🔸

The following tweet will contain the full prompt.

Microsoft and Google just wiped out dozens of startups.

A thread about competitive advantage...

in the age of AI: A defensible competitive advantage is an advantage that is not easily copied.

Let me say that again:

Competitive = Not. Easily. Copied.

Comarison: ChatGPT vs GPT-4

I spent 6 hours on a 5-prompt, head-to-head test. Each answer scored on:
• Relevance
• Creativity
• Accuracy
• Appeal

DMs must be open. Btw, I just set up my new website mindmeetsmachine(dot)ai in the last 24 hours.

Domain certificates are new.

A few people are seeing an error, and I'm not sure why.

But I promise on my dead father's grave that I am not trying to steal anything. You can click "Details" and… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I’ve spent the last 45 days creating an AI co-worker and co- podcast host.

The pod debuts in just a few weeks.

My goal is to give you an authentic glimpse into the mind of a machine.

These show rules keep us honest: 🔸 Authentically AI

Everything RubyAI says comes from her.

I won’t feed her lines, give her a script, or fake her responses.

I won’t tell her to act like a benevolent god trying to take over Earth, either.

It’s all real. No stunts.

Imagine you’re talking to ChatGPT.

“I like dogs,” you say.

You might imagine the AI takes the phrase at face value.

But there's actually a whole world of associations that come with it: AIs like ChatGPT use *topic modeling* and *sentiment analysis* to understand language.

They look for *semantically similar ideas* to see words in the context of other concepts that are nearby.
