Caricature - rized! đŸ€–
Plug this prompt into Chatgpt .. or an ai of your choosing. -- Create a caricature of me and my job based on everything you know about me. -- Here's mine. I'll share a little more detail about this caricature when I have a little more time. Heading to work to you know where.

The first one I created had me holding a cup of coffee that said Coding & Coffee. I don't drink coffee and I don't like coffee. (Especially mushroom coffee, eww) So I had it recreate it with an Irn Bru in hand instead. (Scotland's National Soda). It doesn't look much like me but it was a fun experiment.

@Tav G. I found that I can get it at a British import store here locally. It's not cheap but nice to have every once in a while. I'll go pick up 2x 6 packs every month or so. And if I'm desperate, H.E.B. has the 20oz bottles in store, but they are over $3 a bottle and seem to taste flat. So I get the cans instead when I can.
Is this thing on?
Hello everyone! I've been around since just after the beginning and enjoy the community and frivolity that happens around here. I too am a budding YouTuber working to create a community like Fil's that will stand the test of time. I have two channels that I'm actively working on. One is for talking about Tech and Toys and the other for Travel. I'll post links below. Sometimes you'll catch me popping into Fil's livestreams and a frequent poster here. I look forward to getting to know more of you and hope you have a fantastic experience here. If there is anything you need or have questions about, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to help.

đŸ“ș Don't Touch That Dial ... who said that?
Remember the 'click' sound of the TV dial? What was the one show your family never missed when you were growing up? I actually tried to find the sound of this online but failed. It made me think about the world that is being lost, the world of sounds that only we ever heard. Now that's a library I'd like to visit.

We had to be bathed and in our night clothes in time so we could watch the Muppet Show! And then on Saturday mornings, I always watched the Superfriends while eating breakfast.
Time to Fess Up
All right! It's time for confessions in this group. 🍬In my recent video I mentioned taking care of my health and briefly mentioned avoiding sugar. I have a confession to make: I have fallen off the wagon after a couple of years of not eating candy, and I've been eating it almost daily, including yesterday --- the day after making the video about healthier living! 🍭There's a guy at work that always puts out a bunch of candy on the table and, interestingly, I always pick up the historic candy, I'll call it. Bit-O-honeys, Tootsie Rolls, the ones I like to call old candy. Young people don't like it, which gives me more. đŸ« Anyway if you are eating candy, what candy are you eating? And include a gif if you can đŸ‘ŠđŸ» Declaration: I am not eating candy today! I'm not eating...

I'm not much of a candy guy. But I do allow myself a little sweet here and there. My current occasional treat is the new Honey Peanut M&Ms. I have a bag on my desk that I will take like 5 out and snack on every other day or so.

@Fil Ladden It's a nice difference in the taste. I crave every so often a little something sweet, and that satisfies that itch. I don't need the extra sugar. I get enough of that from Sweet Tea!
The continuing saga of ChatGPT ....
A week ago, I started experimenting with ChatGPT after seeing what was possible beyond basic prompts. Since then, it’s become a place where I think out loud and work through real problems. In one week, I’ve started building my first iOS game, planned several YouTube videos, navigated an unexpected project without freaking out, and even picked up my mandolin again with a clear plan to keep learning. What surprised me most wasn’t the answers, but how much more in control I felt creatively. At some point this week, the light came on. And for the first time in a while, my creative direction felt intentional.

Another shared reflection from last week. I had to put together a video showing my co-workers who Steve is outside of work. So I pulled together a piece and one thing I discovered through that project is that I don't film enough of me doing the filming. I just walked through a retrospective after finishing this project with ChatGPT and after pointing this out, saying I need to do this more, it said something I thought was gold in this conversation. You’re not putting yourself “in front of the camera more.” You’re letting the audience see: how the moments they’re enjoying came into existence. Wow that last statement hits me hard. That's exactly the thing I was missing when going through my clips to include in this video. More moments of me showing the viewer how the moments they were enjoying came into existence. Anyway, just a last bit of info I processed right now to start the week.

I'll post an update for me as well. At work, they have locked down access to most AI tools except for Microsoft CoPilot, because we have paid Microsoft oodles of money for many services and it's Enterprise friendly. So I'm kinda forced to use that if I want to use AI at work. I tried the same approach as I have been with ChatGPT and it seemed like it was going to be a good thing. Until, in the middle of having it show me some data, it stopped in the middle of what it was saying to say, "You have run out of space in this chat conversation. Open a new thread." I was confused, so I clicked the button to open a new thread. I then tried to continue where we left off, and it told me that it didn't remember anything from that other thread and it could not read the other thread to 'catch up'. The other thread was locked so I couldn't ask it to summarize what happened in the thread to be able to continue. And in that thread I had added all the tasks I needed to do, and context, and loads of info. Basically I was stuck. I told it what it had done, and asked how do I avoid this in the future and have the data be persistent? It said oh that's a known limitation with CoPilot and you had to work around it by creating a space for data you wanted to carry through chats like using OneNote. I was baffled. It offered to show me how to set it up, so I said ok. It showed me all the ways to setup a template to save long term data I was trying to work with. Then it said, it could create a OneNote document (.one file) with everything I needed then I could just import it into OneNote. I was like great, do that! Then it proceeded to print in the chat all the things it suggested I create in the template file. I waited, and it didn't create a file. I asked am I supposed to get a file or something to import? It said, "oh I can't create a .one file for OneNote. That's beyond my capability. But I can create a word doc with everything you to just cut and paste in to OneNote instead. I told it you literally told me you could create the file and copy and pasted its exact words. It saw that and said on yeah I did say that. Well I can't, do you want the word file. I'm like fine make the word file, which it did and it told me how to copy it over.
