OpenAI recently introduced 'Assistants' and GPTs, an exciting development poised to create an entirely new app marketplace. If you missed the early days of Apple's iOS marketplace where you could make money by making a flashlight app, this is your chance with AI :)

In this episode, I explain what GPTs are + how to use them, as well as the upcoming AI app marketplace. I'll also explain the big impacts of these new features.

Here's the AstroTherapist GPT I referenced:

A common use case I've seen for AI is the ability to "chat with" your files and documents. It's the most common explainer I deliver on client calls. After listening to this short episode, you'll have a solid understanding of how these systems are built.

I'll explain everything at both the "explain me like I'm 5" level and the technical engineer level. I cover embeddings, vector databases, vector search, and GPT-based synthesis.

Examples of use cases:

• Load HR policies and then employees can simply ask questions of their HR chatbot rather than HR staff. 
• Load precedent legal contracts and then query for new clauses based on precedent
•  Load all your personal financial documents and then query for personal tax planning

Incumbent companies like DropBox have announced plans to incorporate such features. Countless upstarts have sprung up in the past 6 months promising to do this for enterprises.  Frameworks like Langchain exist for developers who want to quickly hack this together themselves.

After spending a weekend at an AI hackathon in Silicon Valley, I am convinced we will achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI) within 5-10 years. By AGI, I mean a computer system that can reason through life on par with the average American knowledge worker. Then what?

This episode will cover my reflections after a weekend among the nerdiest of AI nerds:

• Whose jobs are at risk
• What society looks like in the post-AGI future
• What can we all do now ahead of this inevitable outcome
