    You will be cheating yourself if you don't continue to make videos like this - I love the chip on the shoulder, no bs and upfront honesty. I don't know you personally but I would be confident in saying this is who you are most of the time away from the camera. Feels like theres a whole new kind of ego out there with AI and seeing you cut down the fluff and be real is more refreshing than you can imagine. And honestly, I feel more inclined to have you as a number 1 resource with this video than any you've done before.

    Liam, this video is absolute GOLD!!!
    In the youtube MMO space there are 2 types of creators; Entertainers and educators - there are the videos made to entertain and get views, and the videos made to actually educate people. This shows us you actually want us to succeed, and you're not just trying to make money from us by selling a dream.
    Thank you. keep it up my man.

    Liam, what a masterclass. First of all, thanks for sharing all of this. It has helped me to add new tools in the toolkit and reinforce what I was doing well. Also, please keep doing this type of videos. I love the no BS, raw and straight to the point approach. There is too much hype and you can separate yourself and stand out as a more authentic an genuine authority by showing your true self. Thanks again and keep this up mate!

    If you're not doing this your AI assistant will be the source of frustration more than intended results. Having learned most of this the hard way over three months a while back, it is spot on. One new thing I learned from this video was how a final note section can compensate somewhat for what's lost in the middle.

  • @digitaleoc9003
    @digitaleoc9003 Месяц назад

    Thanks so much for everything you do and share Liam. I've been looking into AI for a while now and am having a couple of tools built. One of the things that is missing in my knowledge is an understanding of how all the AI companies charge for their services (tokens etc.) and how that relates into a business model. For example, everyday I see people advertising the latest greatest AI tool that does everything for your business. Some charge a flat fee up front and you have the tool for life. Others charge monthly. I don't have a good sense of the financial side of all this. Is there any way you could find a bit of time to put together a video on the costs of building and selling AI agency services and tools? Thanks. Newt...

  • @dexcagan2262
    @dexcagan2262 Месяц назад

    Hi Liam, great content as usual. Thanks for leading the charge. One question about the markup. I see you're using multiple H1's (#) in your prompting. Is that something specific to using markdown in LLM prompting? Typically, for SEO, for example, we'd only use one (1) H1 header because that indicates the main title and multiple subheadings (H2's - ##) and (H3's - ###). Does this not apply in prompting? Thanks again in advance.

    I really like the content, as always, but it seems like you are feeling "frustrated" or "slightly angry" at people that have been commenting in the past of for some other reasons, I can only imagine that the feedback from "keyboard warriors" must be very heavy to handle and I know that they can be really hurtfull and unecesary. Don't let them get to you Liam, you seem to be a very smart young guy and and you have acheived a lot already, keep going if thats what you want and don't let them get your peace! Good luck with everything, I'll keep on following and consuming your stuff - I trully hope you are ok 👌
