“Insane Productivity” from AI Eh? Let’s See Some Examples

I’ve found watching Fabric in action to be pretty inspiring. Earlier I quoted David Bombal expressing his view from this interview with Daniel Miessler:

Seeing is believing so if Bombal’s statement sparks your curiosity I hope this blog pours gasoline on the flames.

Views expressed are my own.

In this video, I'll show you how to use a cool GPT called extract wisdom that I learned about in a course I took in January called augmented how to integrate AI into life and work. And this is what it looks like. It's real straightforward. You take content, put it in as an input and it extracts the wisdom out of that. And I really like that idea. It reminds me of Ray Dalio. I've talked before about these steps where he says, you know, as you try to achieve goals, you fail, you learn from that. And then that wisdom helps you elevate and get to the next level. And he has that book called principles, which are through trial and error, the key insights and pieces of wisdom that you can follow to, you know, get where you want to go. So it's all about extracting principles, extracting wisdom. And this is a neat GPT that does that. I want to show how to do it. Daniel Miesler, who's the author, who's the creator of that tool and the author of that, the unsupervised learning blog and podcast, and that course augmented, he has a YouTube video you can check out, but it's in the command line. So you might find that intimidating. If you're not set up for it, this guy right here, you can just use through an interface. So I'll show you how it works. I really like this podcast and I want to get technical. So let's extract wisdom from it. All right. So I'm going to go to the YouTube transcript. Turn off timestamps, select the whole thing and let's input that into extract wisdom and see how smart it is. I goofed. Try that again. All right, copy. Put that in. And let her rip. I'm getting a summary that looks right. While that's working, I'll show you under the hood, the prompt that Daniel Miesler included in this GPT to create this output. And he shows us what it is in the fabric project I have other videos about, where if I look at the extract wisdom pattern, we can see it's telling chat GPT to say, hey, you are a pattern or capability that extracts surprising, insightful and interesting information from text content. You're interested in insights related to the purpose of meeting of life, human flourishing, the role of technology in the future of humanity and various other things. Step one, extract a summary that we saw just producing. Next, extract 20 to 50 of the most surprising, insightful or interesting ideas. Step three, extract quotes, etc. So you can't customize this prompt that's under the hood in the GPT in the browser. But if you get into the fabric open source project, that's where you can customize it, which is super cool. So heading back here, let's see how it did. And yep, that's right. Wow. Those are some of the great ideas. Those are some of the great quotes. And those are some of the great personal habits. I'm not going to slow down to let it finish. I'll show you my comment. There's what I put on yesterday from listening to the whole thing and writing them down on a notepad. But it's chat GPT is pretty close and extract wisdom is pretty close. And I think that if I get into customizing that prompt, it'll get even closer. So give it a shot, see what you think. And hopefully that helps you get the benefits of augmentation and getting chat GPT and AI in your life. Thanks for watching and good luck.
