AI is fun, exciting, a little scary, and moving fast. So, what is a human to do? Well, if you’re not already prepping - saving up on toilet paper, solar blankets, and ready-to-eat meal pouches, at least you’re not alone. Robots are scary, but we’re still just working with large language models. ( The military? - yeah - they have AI drones )
This week in WWWAI - it’s light, it’s Whimsical and it’s appreciation for a super go-getter in AI named Zeng. So, let’s dive in.
Who
Our own Zeng has offically become an AI Influencer. She’s taking what she loves and turning it into 💰cash. How? Read on.
When we first started this newsletter - I said: “Hey, we should start an AI Newsletter.” She didn’t even blink before she was all in.
Next, we had to figure out how to keep our heads up as the firehose of AI related news, technology and media swarmed hot and heavy.
But, she had such a clear purpose. “Make money with AI to feed the family!” 🤑
And so, her fantastic memory, superior butterfly skills, and intense curiosity has gotten her to having not just one, but two AI newsletters. The newsletter she runs on her own PicAiSso - is all about imagery, beauty, and tools you can use to create your own, beautiful reality using AI. It’s awe inspiring.
She is now consulting for some of the most cutting edge AI companies out there. She is keeping abreast of the tools, the eco-system, and still finds time to make images, videos, and music with her favorite tools.
In short, she’s an AI wonder woman - and without her and her super powers, this newsletter wouldn’t be alive 💜

What
Create flow charts with Whimsical Diagram GPT - subscription required
We are often trying to do multi-step processes without getting distracted. It’s not easy in 2024.
So, we found a great GPT - the tool that is basically an OpenAI wrapper on top of their ChatGPT - that comes with specific instructions. I asked it to create a flow chart for writing and editing a newsletter.
What do you think? Have you been using any GPTs?
Bonus points for Whimsical being Purple - because it’s Zeng’s favorite color.
Once you create the flow chart, it’ll ask you to open it in Whimsical.com - which is a fantastic tool we’ve been using for mind mapping, and planning. Check it out.
( or don’t - we don’t have a dog in this fight 🤣 )
Why
Are we ever excited about AI.
Tools are getting better. Companies are investing billions…
”AI isn’t going to be something we can ignore.” - Brian Ball
Attention-chasing news media like to report: “But, AI can’t do ____ yet!” It’s a straw-man argument for which the answer is: “Right. But just wait a little while.”
As the computers start to train each other - the speed will be exponential. We’ll all be sitting around watching the bots entertain us. Hopefully, they’ll also feed us.
