Hi everyone!

If you’re receiving this you’ve signed up at some point for the AI For Humans newsletter or signed up on our website.

If you did this… THANK YOU.

If you didn’t do this… uh, hello? Happy to have you here? We make a podcast, Youtube and other stuff all about AI. Stay a while?

The New Newsletter & Why This Format Is Tricky

Kevin & I have tried to start this back up every few months. It usually follows someone asking ‘you got a newsletter’ and the two of use scrambling to figure out how to split our time even further to make it happen.

Newsletters are incredible tools for delivering great content directly to people. They are also a TON of work to do right. We spend a good 50% of our lives on the (as of yet absolutely not profitable) AI For Humans content you may already be getting on YT or in your Podcast feed.

I’ve been trying to think about a way to do this on the regular and share more of the stuff that crosses our feeds that either doesn’t make it into the podcast OR might be worth sharing on a more urgent basis. Like WTF GPT-4o’s voice mode isn’t coming to ChatGPT+ users until the fall??

DAMN YOU SAM!!!

What You’ll Get Here

For now, my plan is to mostly deliver links to AI tools, news or interesting AI content that we think you should know or that you might like. From time to time, one of us might write something longer or share something here and weigh in with our thoughts.

In order to keep it easy and simple, it’s gonna be pretty spare almost (dare I say it) Kottke.org esque. It’s still one of my favorite blogs of all time and Jason and his team have clearly transitioned well to the newsletter world.

My plan for now is to start rolling this out NEXT MONDAY, July 1st.

This is just a lil preview email to let you all know about the changes to come.

But because we can’t just let you go without sharing a few tools…

Seriously. Just go tell it to create you a program for something. I am not a programmer but got it to create a tiny program to tell if I should shave or not. Turns out, I SHOULD.

Note: Be sure to go into your settings and turn on artifacts

And… this week we published our step-by-step guide to making your own AI co-host. It’s something a lot of people asked for. Click below to watch it on YT!

We’ll have more soon! See you next Monday!
