🧠 AI Power on All Your Apple Devices

The Future is Here

I don’t know about you, but I was getting some AI-fatigue. It felt like you couldn’t go three minutes on the internet without seeing ChatGPT, hearing about Google Bard, or reading a tweet-thread about AI.

I’ll admit, the whole AI revolution seems to be moving at a break-neck pace, and that can be a little scary. Not knowing where it’s headed and if it will continue progressing this fast, there’s a natural aversion to AI. But then, Shortcuts guru Federico Viticci built an incredible ChatGPT integrated Shortcut for Apple devices, and now it’s got me excited.

I walk through setting up the Shortcut, and how I’ve already integrated it into my podcast creation workflow in this video. I was going for a Thor look in the thumbnail, whether or not I achieved it, I’ll let you decide 😂

If you’re still hesitant about AI or unsure how to use it, think about the times you wish you could get a quick summary of a long article. ChatGPT can do that! Need ideas for titling your blog, video, or podcast episode? Tell ChatGPT what it’s about and it will give you as many suggestions as you need. It can even take a few bullet points you have on a topic and write a full-length article.

In my video I demonstrate how I use it to generate podcast episode titles and descriptions based on the headlines of articles I saved during the week. It’s pretty cool, and until AI turns 100% Skynet, I’m going to utilize it wherever I can.

Definitive Guide to Sonos

After publishing my review of the Sonos Era 300 speakers, I wasn’t completely satisfied with my conclusion. Going forward, I want to be more decisive in my recommendations at the end of videos, so I made a part II of my Era 300 review, but included every Sonos speaker you can buy right now.

There are many combinations of Sonos speakers, and my recommendations change depending on room size and purpose, are you just wanting a great music experience or home theater too? I go from large to medium to small size rooms in the video, and give my choice for each. Enjoy!

Sneak Peek

Coming soon on the channel, I’m reviewing a motorized standing desk! I spent the better part of last Friday moving everything from the old desk to the new one, hence this newsletter coming out now instead of last week. But I went all out on cable management and optimizing everything about the setup. Here’s what the studio desk looks like now:
