Notable Quotes:

"The reality is the line between building products and almost doing research as even just a user [...] research means you just go play with models and figure out what these things can do." - Logan Kilpatrick

"This is probably one of the more mind-blowing AI demos I've seen as of late. When I see this, I see this is the future of work." - Greg

Greg, the only downside to watching your pod is the number of ideas that flood my brain when I do. Mindblowing stuff. Thanks.

[Fusion-Pickle]

I'm a technical founder and one use case that I found for this was to make a recording with Loom.
I talk like i'm being interviewed about my product. I give a demo on my desktop and walk through the user experience.
Then I show the areas of it that I am concerned about and discuss some options I think might be in the direction I want to go.
I can then upload that and have a chat after its had the opportunity to review the whole video. I then take those recommendations and bring them to windsurf to implement.

I've been playing with the studio for well over a year at least now but it continues to blow my deepmind. Great example of how "just doing the thing" cna get your gears turning into a 3 day sleepless bing of building out ideas. Love it.

[YourImpactInvestor]

this SIP is basically an open invite to go build a $10M AI-powered SaaS... free API keys, unlimited business ideas, and real-time AI support - love this Greg!

[RyanStephenAlldridge]

I switched to Gemini’s models last week and they are really fast and impressive. Claude is warm, ChatGPT is cold, Gemini is sharp.

[bondedtogether-gilberttroy]

I actually just built and published my very own iOS iPhone/iPad app using Google Gemini. IT WORKS! I’m not a coder but I’ve wanted to do this for years and just didn’t know how to start. It helped me with the coding from start to finish. Even how to go through the Apple publishing process. AMAZING!! I’m a tech enthusiast for sure and do projects similar at work, but finally got something checked off my bucket list!!

[TomHodges]

Logan is one bright guy, this video was highly informative and easy to watch. Greg, you are a good listener and that helped out, you also asked great questions.

[gregorykennedy-mindfuldude]

Thank you Greg and Logan. Excellent presentation. Huge fan of AI Studio as I have been using it for as long as it has been relaeased. I can say with full confidence that the open and foundation model dev community appreciates the ability to test all of the models and the free api .

[ShaiAlon]

This episode was AWESOME! 🔥
I'm loving this look into the future of AI with Google - especially with those free API keys. Thanks for breaking it down, Logan and Greg.
Seriously mind-blowing to see where AI is heading with Google AI Studio Multimodality and Streams - feels like "chats" are SO 2024 already! 🤯
This opens up HUGE opportunities for startups 🚀

[MarciaJohanson]

It is a great tool! I am not a tech person I just follow tutorials step by step. It helped me on a Wordpress webpage I am doing and I use to spend hours trying to resolve some steps while building the website. Amazing! It was like a Wordpress consultant orienting me.

[joejauregui]

I used an AI API image recognizer for my site I am building to limit fraud but im 100% up grading to the spacial understanding this model is incredible! Thanks Greg!

[chrisogonas]

Truly the future of work! Amazing demo, folks. Thanks

[thesimplicitylifestyle]

I use mine for most of my real time questions but one of my favorite use cases is bird watching questions on my nature walks. It accurately names all the species I've spotted and I can learn more about the different species if I want. 💙🐦

[JamesYeang]

Super insightful. Please continue this type of interview formats. 😊

[Omri-Mati]

Hey Greg, congratulation for the 200k subs, amazing episode as always 🙂

[martinstepanek]

This ai Studio will change learning around the world. How many impoverished countries could benefit, teaching kids who cannot go to school like the rural communities of Ghana. Education is key to elevating communities out of poverty.

[Mic-Wess]

All looked fine, but I was blown away by the AI- Code helper audio. Absolutely insane. As a no code dev, I will for sure be using this.

[motionangle]

i watched the pre like 3-4 times to get back from bed. Whenever the day comes in, this podcast will be CORNERSTONE of the future

[nomad_manhattan]

Thanks for the demo, Greg and Logan. I have gotten so many use cases/ideas as I was watching this.
I own a platform product team and seriously thinking leveraging AI Studio to democratize access to data insights for Analytics and Data Operation team who are equipped with proper coding skills. One use case can be allowing our operation and business user to 'chat' with transaction database and visualize data usage/account performance without SQL, potentially ground it with historical data, report etc. To start I am going to build a prototype myself and share with my Eng partner and we can refine/test with the Data Ops.
