Magnificent! Don’t remember why I watched one of your videos at the first time but by now this channel has become the main source of upgrading my knowledge about AI and feeding my growing curiosity about the topic. You always make it really interesting. Thank you!!!

Been a senior programmer for years and using ChatGpt / codex since they were both released so have a tech understanding. A lot of people I meet say that AI doesnt do what you tell it all the time (as per the linked in initial pronpt output). <br><br>What I've found useful is to assume that AI is autistic and reword your prompt around that notion.<br><br>Love your videos by the way.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPe_srf0GlI&t=1265">21:05</a> -- simple, you just ask the thing. tell it your goal and what you know, and ask it what else you need.

I just found this channel this week and have binge watched/studied/learned sooooo much in just this week. Amazing channel. Thank you for your work!! Also, side note, I don't think I have ever seen another YouTuber be as fashionable as you either. Wow. Great taste!
