I really appreciated the fact the video wasn't over produced. So many people now put excessive clipping into everything where it feels like one of those movies where they swarm someone's brain to program them but in reality it can just be distracting. Connecting with humans over how to deal with AI is refreshing!

This is by far the clearest and most straightforward explanation I’ve come across. It’s obvious how passionate you are. Please keep this type of videos coming. Thank you

I use AI in my work, I’ve watched many AI videos,etc. But this presentation style is very much needed: conversational, no PowerPoint, no tech flexing, no unexplained terms, just plain English. This is very much appreciated. Particularly interested in more content about running models locally, and how to train local specialized models, like a personal financial advisor familiar with my specific circumstances. Great video, keep them coming.

As much as this taught me, it also was just fascinating watching an expert wrestling down their own excitement about the topic to be able to explain it simply.
