AI Tools

GPT 3 is one of the more popular at the moment

AI to generate code - https://chat.openai.com/chat

Create AI Images with Midjourney - $10 a month - https://midjourney.com/home

Remix images using tweaked text prompts

The skill is in writing the prompts

Training from open source resources

Midjourney runs on Discord - https://discord.com/

Licensing is a grey area - as is copyright ownership currently

Text writing AI is great for outlining articles, creating headlines and descriptions

Turing test and Eliza - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test

Things are moving forward very quickly

Deep Fakes - what are the legal rules going to be?

Github Code Pilot got in trouble by using code they shouldn't have - https://github.com/features/copilot

Computers programming themselves via humans

Maintenance - Checking on PAT testing - https://www.electricalsafetyfirst.org.uk/find-an-electrician/pat-testing-explained/

It's not a legal requirement for entertainers, but is worth doing to make sure your equipment is in good condition

Ticking boxes for Health and Safety

PAT testing includes visual inspection

Do you have equipment that is essential for your business? When was the last time you cleaned it or checked it was in good condition?

Check on your software as well - do you have to maintain old code bases because there are no updates?

Creating a custom solution is an option, but will it give you the return on investment

What colour do you think the next season will be for This Week With? Leave your ideas in the comments on social media.

A little late starting due to technical issues.

Day out for Taylor's birthday

Back in Time Exhibition - https://backintimeexhibition.com/london/

Customer Survey - asking why people choose not to purchase from you, or decide to leave you

Getting back to people quickly - strike while the iron is hot

If you are really busy, then get a PA - real or virtual, or put time aside everyday to deal with admin

Sometimes the admin is not something you enjoy, but it could be costing you business

Don't send proposals on a Friday - makes it difficult to follow up over the next few days

Venues Map is now live - you can see it at: https://venues.disbelieving.com

The new website design has been started, and we are making good process

Entering Season 4 next month...

Checking processes and putting something in place for times of illness

Checking in on customers and being more pro-active

Don't play catch-up, be ahead of your workload

Hansel & Gretel in Sanderstead, January 7-14th 2023 - tickets can be bought at: https://www.sdclub.org.uk/box-office
