  • You Don’t Need to Be a Programmer to Use Codex

    Get started with Codex: https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/quickstart

    I’ve been using AI for research, outlines, and admin since ChatGPT launched. Codex changed the way I use it: instead of asking for an answer, I can ask for an outcome.

    In this video, I’m sharing the tools and systems I’ve built to solve small, repetitive problems in my life and work. I do not consider myself technical; I just like being organized, saving time, and making the tools I already use work better for me.

    IN THIS VIDEO

    • CraveBook: my recipe database and weekly meal planner
    • Rushes and Rush Reads, where I track movies, shows, and books
    • The wardrobe capsule (cool in theory; not worth maintaining)
    • Field Guide: my travel bucket list and packing system
    • Stash, which organizes my saved links and tracks prices
    • Work and feedback: how I analyzed responses from the summer cohort at ’76 Crew
    • Recurring tasks like my morning news brief and creator research

    What should I break down or share first? Let me know in the comments.

  • How I Ended Up Making A Movie With The Producer Of Backrooms

    Before IT ENDS premiered at SXSW, Alex Ullom was making comedy sketches on YouTube. Andrew found one, sent it to me, and that eventually led to a dinner—and our first investment in a feature film.


    In this video, I tell the story of how Andrew and I became executive producers on IT ENDS, what made us trust Alex while the outcome was still uncertain, and what producing taught me about backing creative people.


    A lot of it came down to curiosity, integrity, and knowing when to offer support and when to get out of the way.


    IT ENDS is written and directed by Alex Ullom and opens in theaters August 21.
