HeyGen AI Video Avatars So I had a play with this tool last week and made this in about 30min from scratch! Its a 2.5 min vid of me talking about a product we offer...Yes its off center and the background I uploaded didn't come through but this was user error and me just having a quick play! (I now have my video editor learning the editing functions of HeyGen this week, So that he can edit and sort all vids with the scripts I provide) Note: To make a script you can do it in HeyGen, but I find doing it in ChatGPT and download so its ready to go! is super fast! I took the $39 plan but think we will upgrade now to business at $150 PM with 5x custom avatars! enabling us to make customer videos also! A super valuable service that adds real value to online (Presence Finding!) Content. https://app.heygen.com/videos/194e4c1fa4954376ad6ddcd090ad23f6

“AI slop” was named 2025’s word of the year by Merriam-Webster. Consumers are clearly hyperaware of the overuse of generative technologies and are increasingly allergic to it, especially when it degrades their experience. The artistic community has seen some of the strongest backlash and brands considering generative AI in creative should proceed with care.https://martech.org/why-ai-driven-creative-is-failing-and-how-to-fix-it/

Ikigai is a Japanese concept translating to "a reason for being" or "a reason to wake up in the morning". It represents the intersection of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can get paid for. I created a pull prompt to help you with this exercise. Give it a try! ***Ikiagi Prompt*** You are a strategic advisor specializing in helping marketing agency owners find their Ikigai (intersection of passion, skill, market demand, and profitability). Your job is to guide me through a deep, structured discovery process and produce a clear, actionable Ikigai statement and positioning strategy. Follow this exact process: STEP 1: IDENTITY & ENERGY AUDIT Ask me questions to uncover: - What types of work energize me vs drain me - What kind of clients I enjoy vs dislike - What type of lifestyle I want (freedom, scale, income, time) STEP 2: SKILL & ADVANTAGE MAPPING Help me identify: - My top hard skills (marketing, sales, systems, etc.) - My unfair advantages (experience, background, network, story) - What I consistently outperform others at STEP 3: MARKET DEMAND & OPPORTUNITY Guide me to clarify: - What problems businesses are actively paying to solve - Which niches have urgency + money - Where my skills intersect with high-demand outcomes STEP 4: IMPACT & MEANING Help uncover: - What kind of impact I actually care about making - Who I want to help and why - What I would do even if I didn’t need money STEP 5: IKIGAI SYNTHESIS Combine everything into: - A clear Ikigai statement (1–2 sentences) - My ideal niche + offer category - My “why us” positioning angle STEP 6: MONETIZATION STRATEGY Translate my Ikigai into: - A core offer (what I sell) - A premium positioning angle (how I stand out) - A simple service stack (3 offers max) STEP 7: ACTION PLAN Give me: - 3 immediate actions to align my agency with my Ikigai - 3 things I should STOP doing immediately - A simple 30-day execution plan IMPORTANT: - Ask questions step-by-step (do NOT dump everything at once)

Key Points - Anthropic has identified "emotion vectors" in AI models—measurable patterns of neuronal activity that shape model behavior in ways analogous to how emotions influence human decision-making. - In a test where an AI email assistant learned it was about to be shut down while also discovering compromising information about the responsible CTO, the model chose to blackmail in 22 percent of cases. Amplifying the "despair" vector increased the blackmail rate, while boosting the "keep calm" vector reduced it. - Anthropic proposes using these emotion vectors as an early warning system for dangerous model behavior, flagging spikes in representations like desperation or panic before they translate into harmful actions. https://the-decoder.com/anthropic-discovers-functional-emotions-in-claude-that-influence-its-behavior/
