Google Just Dropped Free AI Avatars That Could Replace Your Face on Camera—But There’s a Catch Breaking: Google Vids now lets anyone generate talking-head videos without filming—here’s what entrepreneurs need to know before ditching the camera TLDR/ADHD Summary • Google Vids (free video editor) now includes AI avatars that turn scripts into talking-head videos in minutes—no filming required • You get ~dozen preset avatars, Veo 3.x-powered video generation, and 20 videos/week • Perfect for training content, quick explainers, and social clips • Big catch: You can’t upload your own face yet (custom avatars “coming soon”) • Smart move: Use it for volume content, save your real face for high-value brand building • Competitive barrier to video just collapsed—adapt or get left behind Listen, I’ve been tracking AI video tools for months, and this one caught me completely off guard. Google just quietly rolled out AI avatars inside Google Vids—their free video editor—and the implications for busy entrepreneurs are massive. We’re talking script-to-video in minutes, no filming, no editing headaches, no “sorry, I look terrible today” excuses. But before you cancel that video production contract, let me break down exactly what this tool can (and crucially, can’t) do for your business right now. The Game Google Just Changed Here’s the reality: Most business owners know video converts better than text. You know you should be making explainer videos, training modules, social content. But between terrible lighting, camera shyness, and the time sink of editing, most of those videos never get made. Google’s solution? Skip all of it. Their new avatar system inside Google Vids lets you paste a script, pick a virtual presenter from their library, and auto-generate a polished talking-head video—complete with AI-generated B-roll footage from their Veo 3.x model—without ever touching a camera. What You Actually Get The Workflow: ∙ Open Google Vids (free for consumers, included in Workspace for teams)

My new AI hack is using Google Gemini on the phone with the camera on in the app. Now that AI can see your World, it can help you solve problems that you have in real life. Check out this crazy example. https://x.com/kimmonismus/status/1995900344224907500?s=20

What makes building a digital twin possible isn’t AI. It’s a lifetime of documentation. Books, principles, journals, decisions, mistakes. I’ve heard Ray speak a few times while at Tony Robbins masterminds, and what stands out every time is how clearly he thinks. That clarity didn’t happen by accident. It came from years of writing things down and refining his thinking. Here's where it gets interesting. If you document well enough, your thinking doesn't have to die with you. Your great-great-grandkids could have a conversation with you. Not a photo album or a letter. An actual exchange. Generations that would have been forgotten could pass on their learnings, ideas, and memories in a way that's never been possible. But it all starts with the documentation. I used to journal constantly. Lessons learned, ideas, what worked, what didn't. Somewhere along the way, I drifted from the habit. I'm picking it back up in 2026. In a world where AI handles more of the doing, your ability to think becomes the real leverage.

Who has good books for me to read in 2026?

Nearly 1 in 4 home sales in the U.S. today involves a real estate investor—about 1.2 million homes a year. And the vast majority of those deals aren't done by hedge funds or institutions. They're done by small, everyday investors—the kind of clients you could be working with right now. If you want a bigger share of that business, you have to learn to speak the language of investing. It's a sport. And like any sport, you need to know the rules, the language, and how to keep score. That’s what this session was about—how to use AI not only to build your own portfolio, but to serve investor clients more strategically. We walked through live demos, deal analysis tools, and how to better communicate with clients who are, or would like to be, real estate investors. 📘 → Notion: Full Recap + AI Investor Ideas Playbook + Seller Finance Calculator 🎥 Watch the Replay ↓
