*CORRECTIONS*

I sometimes have to post corrections to videos, so I use pinned comments (this thing here) so people see it.

I got a lot of pushback on my comments about Python, so I do want to clarify what I mean:

For new people who are just starting to learn how to code, the whole process is daunting and the learning curve is steep. You have to figure out IF you need to learn to code, WHAT language to learn, WHICH dev tools to use, college or online... the list goes on and on.

I think this stops a lot of people just due to decision fatigue alone.

My goal was to make it so simple that people would be kicked into action. Just "LEARN PYTHON. USE GOOGLE COLLAB".


Once people start coding and building useful applications, then can start expanding their knowledge, add other languages etc. The learning process is addicting and will carry them further.

Only 0.5% of the world can code!

We need to get more people to start learning to do it.

So for people just starting to code and interested in AI:
JUST LEARN PYTHON

(that's step 1, don't worry about the rest of the road yet)

I’m 60 ish yo, I’ve never seen anything more interesting in my whole life that could take me beyond retirement, this has proven to me over and over its not waste of time. I feel like I’m so far behind but that won’t be the case if I don’t give up. Good video and one of the best out of so many I’ve seen.

[BongShlong]

Im about to automate my job and all relationships (especially to my kids) just so I can spend my time better by watching more Wes Roth videos 😍🥵

[MrSuperPatar]

I am so happy to hear this because I have been learning foundational skills in Python with OpenAI’s API. Harvard’s CS50 course was invaluable (and free)

My first time seeing you and I had to pause 5 minutes in. I love that you lay out that the purpose of your channel is to learn and teach how to make autonomous A.I. agents. That is something I would benefit greatly from, and as long as you stay on that mission, you've got a loyal follower.

The purpose of my comment is so I don't forget why I followed this channel.

Prompt engineering is a massive aspect and key to success on GPT. I have spent a lot of hours coding with it so far and it is both amazing and frustrating as hell sometimes.

You’re prompts totally dictate the IQ level of the conversation. I’ve seen this many times where I start a coding project on GPT 4 and it’s totally in sync with what I want and it’s code output and brainstorming are top notch. After a couple of hours in the project conversation all that can go totally off track and it’s as though GPT 4 decided to take a break and it’s dumb brother got behind the wheel instead as it starts failing to understand the simplest of prompts. I’ve found at that point it’s best to gather what you’ve got so far and start a new conversation.

I appreciate that you took time to explain API as well. Making sure that who ever watching it feels that he is not alone in learning. Thank you.

I had a very interesting time using GPT to simulate a brainstorming session with two chatbots, A and B. I started by choosing a topic, and then I asked A and B to come up with ideas for improvement. Both chatbots generated ideas, and then I asked them each what they thought about the other's idea. Finally, I asked A and B to consider each other's ideas and come up with a new idea by fusing the two together.

The outcome was amazing. This is the future of brainstorming! You can even instruct the chatbots to be experts in different fields, such as A being a teacher and B being an engineer. The more creative you make them, the better the outcome will be.

I almost never comment any youtube video, but I'll make an exception here.

In the past year, I have been constantly "injesting" information about AI from a HUGE amount of sources, some good, some bad, I have made a lot of experience building with AI and I have been thinking about autonomous agents for a while. I believe that I made myself a pretty solid idea of the "quality" of the sources, and it made me much quicker at learning.

That being said, I can confidently say that this is a really well done video, you know what you are talking about, and you realise where AI is going. It's also incredibly inspiring and well thought.
When I need inspiration, I will probably come back to this.

Really, well done, it might be exaggerate, but I had spine chills. Subscribed.

Wes, I rarely comment on a video but I feel compelled.

You just brought amazing clarity into something that was really ambiguous to me and gave it structure. I now know which skills to stack up.

Please please continue to speak more on skill stacks to build and elaborate on the 'Conjuring' skill you mentioned. Love your work mate!

[VegasPerformer]

I'm obsessed with building an auto GPT assistant AI. I thought we were already able to do this very recently. I would rather be at the top riding the AI wave then drowning trying to keep up when it's already washed over EVERYTHING

[carltheyoda]

Fantastic video! I'm looking forward to this series and am taking this journey with you brother!

[lokijordan]

Great vid. Coding novice here. Just subbed your channel. Note: You have a great voice and cadence for this. I actually listened on "normal" setting instead of one-point-five tempo. The video length is perfect, too. Well done!

[squintyourears]

Wow the algorithm was on point with this video.
This is exactly the information I needed.
Well done Wes, keen to hear more (and I haven't even fished watching the video yet!).

[enermaxstephens]

Thanks wes, I'll be following this channel all the way through, because I want to learn exactly what you're teaching in this video. So I'll be here for years it seems.

[craigrichards]

Nice work Wes, thanks for putting this together.
Some links in the description will help follow-up research.
Sure to follow.

[matten_zero]

Ive only played with these tools for half a year, and I started building agents recently, this is all that matters right now. We are at the edge of the singularity

This is really great. And it makes sense: this is the most paradigm shifting aspect of generative AI, empowering an agent to consistently and repeatedly plan, collect information, make decisions, plan and engage in creative work, refine it, intelligently proceed according to specific directions, and report findings to relevant stakeholders and participants in relevant and most logical ways.

This is the most important thing to explore and create.

[duncanjhenderson]

I got gooseflesh watching this video. You layout exactly what I needed to be thinking about for an AI project that I have in mind.
