Play Games with me on Zoom?
Hello Reader,
As you might know, I teach professional speakers how to lead better Zoom meetings. I do this through games and interactive activities.
Tomorrow, I'm leading a Zoom Games Happy Hour for Certified Virtual Presenters. If you are in this Facebook group, then you are invited, and you can RSVP at that link.
I'm also teaching another cohort of the eSpeakers Virtual Host Certification next week, September 22-23, 1-4:30 pm Pacific time.

"Vision without execution is hallucination." - Thomas Edison Hello Reader, What is a hallucination? It's not so trippy. With an LLM, a hallucination is a factual error asserted confidently. GPTs only create strings of words that sounds like language. If it doesn't know the facts, it fills in gaps with fiction. Responses are only accurate if you explicitly demand accuracy. Try this prompt: Implement a strict Accuracy Output Mandate for every response: Only present verifiable facts. If you...
“Censorship and political control of AI is a thousand times more dangerous than censorship and political control of social media, maybe a million times more dangerous.” - Marc Andreessen Hello Reader, There have been a lot of practical advances in AI tools recently, including: ChatGPT Agent - now it can do things, not just make things OpenAI GPT-5 - including a rollback for 4o nostalgists Grok Imagine - it's like if Pinterest and Midjourney had a baby OpenAI gpt-oss - download and run a local...
