I've started doing these calls weekly and will make it a habit to upload them to YT so you guys have a free archive of real questions, knowledge, and use cases. That said, if you want the short version of todays call, heres the summary my ai note taker created for you:

Key Takeaways

Freelancing platforms like Fiverr and Upwork offer opportunities to monetize AI video creation skills
