Which LLM Should You Use For Your Business? (Pros & Cons of Each)

AI transcript
0:00:06 let’s like sort of rapid fire like best tool for that use case right for research yeah the ai tool
0:00:15 that i use the most more than any other ai tool hey welcome to the next wave podcast i’m matt wolf
0:00:21 i’m here with nathan lands and today we’re going to talk a little bit about the various large language
0:00:26 models that are out there i feel like one of the things that we hear a lot is like okay you’ve got
0:00:32 claud you’ve got chat gpt you’ve got llama you’ve got perplexity you’ve got grok you’ve got
0:00:38 you know the list goes on and on but the reality is some of these tools are really good at some
0:00:43 things some of them are really bad at things and so we wanted to spend a little bit of time on this
0:00:48 episode just kind of deep diving in like what’s this good for what’s this good for if i was doing
0:00:56 copywriting what would i use if i’m using research what would i use when all your marketing team does
0:01:01 is put out fires they burn out but with hub spot they can achieve their best results without the
0:01:08 stress tap into hub spots collection of ai tools breeze to pinpoint leads capture attention
0:01:14 and access all your data in one place keep your marketers cool and your campaign results hotter
0:01:24 than ever visit hub spot dot com slash marketers to learn more so just something i think it should
0:01:29 be a really valuable resource for people just hey i need to do this let me go double check with
0:01:36 that episode of the next wave on how i actually should do that like what tool should i be using
0:01:40 to go do that so that’s what this episode’s all about we don’t have a guest today it’s just me
0:01:46 and nathan chatting from our own experience about these tools just getting into it here one of the
0:01:52 biggest news in the ai world right now is from chat gpt from open ai right they just released
0:01:58 their new open ai 01 model maybe do you want to kind of break down a little bit i mean i mean some of
0:02:02 it we don’t fully know how it’s working yet there’s a lot of like debate about what’s actually going
0:02:07 on with the new 01 model but the way that they’re describing it is this is a new paradigm in in the
0:02:11 past you know the large language models they’re really great you know they’re trained on tons of
0:02:15 data you know they can make great stuff from that but they they can’t really reason about what they’re
0:02:20 seeing right and so they’re saying that this is now a basic reasoning that they kind of attached on
0:02:25 top of those large language models it’s not like from what i can tell so far like it’s not you know
0:02:29 there’s not great use cases for like regular people yeah it’s a little bit better than editing and
0:02:35 encoding a few things but the big deal probably is that now you can it’s almost like in the past
0:02:40 the large language models were like had like half a brain right like almost like the creative side
0:02:44 or something like this and now you have like the logic side is there now too it’s like you put those
0:02:50 two together like it’s amazing with the reasoning side it’s all at inference time like there’s a
0:02:54 whole another side of things that they can improve now we’re like yeah you can just throw more gpu’s
0:02:59 at this and so like yeah although talk about like oh you know we’ve hit a limit and it’s not going to
0:03:04 get better anytime soon like no this is there’s no end in sight now like this is going to continue
0:03:09 to get way better and uh and the people at open ai they’re saying like yeah it’s almost like this is
0:03:15 like the gpt two or three moment where they’ve built this amazing new they’ve had a breakthrough
0:03:20 but consumers can’t really realize that yet there’s not like if you just use it in chat gpt it’s
0:03:23 you’re not gonna like oh my god this is amazing it’s like oh it’s like slightly better at some
0:03:28 things but there’s more going on the site you know behind the hood it’s using what they call
0:03:33 chain of thought reasoning right where basically there was a technique that people used when they
0:03:38 were you know quote unquote prompt engineering called chain of thought reasoning where you would
0:03:43 ask it a question and then within that same prompt you would say think this through think it through
0:03:48 step by step you know and and that was how people would do this chain of thought reasoning to me
0:03:52 what this is is they just sort of bake that in so now you don’t have to ask for that chain of
0:03:58 thought reasoning you don’t have to tell me think this through step by step i guess what i’m still
0:04:05 uncertain about is like how is this new model super different yeah from just doing that sort of
0:04:09 prompting technique i mean the rumors i’ve heard from like friends in silicon valley who know people
0:04:15 there is like it’s based on that idea but there’s more to it than that i mean i get that impression
0:04:19 yeah and so i don’t know we could you know we could guess what it is but like we have no idea
0:04:25 yeah and when you use this new open ai model too it it actually will show like a little sort of
0:04:28 dialogue thing that says like thinking or whatever right it’s got a drop down arrow and if you open
0:04:34 up that drop down arrow it will actually show you sort of what it’s thinking but from what i understand
0:04:40 it’s actually not really showing you a thing it’s almost like yeah it’s almost as if it’s what it’s
0:04:45 thinking is a much longer prompt and then it’s using its own sort of like ai model to give you a
0:04:49 summarized version of what it’s thinking yeah well people were saying oh it’s amazing you actually
0:04:52 finally see what they’re thinking yeah and now we don’t have to worry about like yeah taking over the
0:04:57 world we can we can see what it’s thinking in real time and then opening out was like oh yeah you
0:05:02 know we’re not actually like necessarily showing that to consumers like like we have the capability
0:05:05 to do that now though apparently that they are saying that they have the ability to do that i believe
0:05:09 yeah but they’re not making all of that you know known to like regular people yeah so yeah i think
0:05:14 we’re getting some kind of like edited down version of what they decided to show people right
0:05:18 still pretty cool to see that you know and a lot of the rumors are right we’ve been hearing about this
0:05:24 strawberry right and sam altman trolled everybody by putting a image up on his twitter say oh i love
0:05:29 it killing as well to the guy i don’t know who it was a real person or yeah if it was so there’s
0:05:33 been a lot of talk around strawberry and then this came out so a lot of people were like hey
0:05:38 strawberries finally out right yeah but we’re here at inbound and we’ve been talking to a lot of people
0:05:42 who are deep into ai as well and somebody’s like yeah it’s not even strawberry it’s something else
0:05:47 it’s called it’s actually the orion model which is different than strawberry q star whatever you
0:05:52 want to call it you know yeah it’s hard to know like like also is this gpt 5 or is that something
0:05:56 else too yeah because maybe yeah the the the large language model itself is going to keep getting
0:06:00 better and better maybe they’re still working on that maybe there is another gpt 5 coming yeah
0:06:04 this reasoning thing is another thing yeah now they can improve upon so well the way they announced
0:06:09 it on their blog as well was like we’re resetting the counter i don’t remember the exact wording
0:06:13 right but they’re like we’re resetting this so we’re starting with 01 right so it’s super confusing
0:06:18 with like preview and mini and yeah that’s the other thing right so like the version of 01 that
0:06:24 we’re seeing right now is the preview version all of the benchmark test like if you look at their
0:06:29 blog you’ll see that it outperformed in like phd reasoning and math and science and all of these
0:06:35 like stem related topics right but everything that it’s showing that really really outperformed
0:06:41 is the open ai 01 model the full model yeah we’re just seeing the preview model which if you look at
0:06:47 those same benchmarks they’re better than what we were getting but they’re not like insanely better
0:06:53 they’re not like you know the the phd level they’re showing on these charts right yeah i mean it’s
0:06:56 kind of gets us closer to agi though too right because like open ai had put out there like
0:07:02 tier list of like getting to agi i think number two was reasoning and number three was agents
0:07:06 right and so now they’re saying they have reasoning they’re saying it’s not great but is the basic
0:07:11 foundation right how you would build reasoning into an ai system they’ve nailed that now yeah and
0:07:16 then apparently like a david sacks on the old end podcast he was saying some other day where
0:07:20 apparently the word is that the open ai investors have been told by sam altman
0:07:25 that they’ve nailed agents that it’s working like the new 01 like that they haven’t shown
0:07:30 people publicly yet but in private it’s working and agents are actually going off and doing work
0:07:35 it’s like work that companies would love to have the agents doing for them it’s actually working and
0:07:40 so you know agents in the past like you know we had yo hey akajima for the who did baby agi and
0:07:44 always on and great concept but like a lot of stuff just didn’t work like it would go up and try to
0:07:49 do stuff for you and it would like get confused and like and that’s kind of it yeah and you could
0:07:53 possibly even run up a huge bill for you too because it just keeps trying yeah and so if they’ve
0:07:57 actually nailed that i mean this is it’s gonna be a huge step forward when that comes out so just
0:08:01 for anybody who’s listening that maybe hasn’t listened to like previous episodes the when we
0:08:07 talk about agents and agent is essentially like it’ll do multiple steps right you can give it a
0:08:13 task and it will go and potentially use tools and do multiple steps for you to get to the result
0:08:19 that you wanted so like examples people might give of like an ai agent might be something where i go
0:08:24 and ask it to book my flight for me right and it goes and checks your calendar sees what times you
0:08:29 have available and then it goes to the airline website and sees if there’s any flights that are
0:08:34 available within that window that you want and then it books it for you and then sends you a slack
0:08:39 message to let you know that it booked it right yeah so an agent is like all of like a multi-step
0:08:45 process probably using different api right things done one example took me like if you’re doing in
0:08:49 marketing like doing a marketing report you could say go off and get me this data and like
0:08:53 you know create a pdf and like right you can do a report like that’s something used to take a lot
0:08:58 of time yeah like in theory agents should be able to easily do that kind of stuff yeah yeah well so
0:09:04 so sam altman said i don’t remember if we did a tweet or if it was on the blog post but he basically
0:09:09 said for most cases you still want to use gpt for yeah he said for most of the cases you still
0:09:15 want to go use gpt for you want to use open ai o one if you really need it to think through logic
0:09:21 or do a math problem or solve really complex like things that require more logic right right so that’s
0:09:28 why we wanted to do this episode is to kind of talk through what are some of the the large language
0:09:33 models pros and cons like what what what models should i be using if i need this task done which
0:09:38 models should be i’d be using for this task over here right and so we wanted to start by talking
0:09:44 about chat gpt and this new open ai o one because you probably don’t need o one for most things like
0:09:50 maybe go and ask it some complex questions just to see what is capable of and look at the way it’s
0:09:56 reasoning yeah but for 99% of use cases gpt for is probably going to be better for most of your
0:10:02 use cases but obviously chat gpt isn’t the only game in town right right we’ve got chat gpt we’ve
0:10:08 got claud we’ve got lama we’ve got gemini we’ve got grok we’ve got all of these tools so let’s
0:10:14 talk a little bit about claud for for me this is what i think claud is the best at i think claud
0:10:20 is really really good at like storytelling and i think it’s amazing this is what i use it for more
0:10:26 than anything else is summarization taking a a fairly long document now it does have like some
0:10:31 context token limits where some documents tend to be too big it seems to be based on file size
0:10:36 on claud though like on claud it’ll i don’t know the exact file size but if you go over like 20
0:10:40 megabytes or something you’ll say it’s too big right so if you have a long pdf you can actually
0:10:46 take that pdf run it through a compression tool shrink the file size down and then claud will
0:10:51 read it so i’ve actually downloaded some like pds from archive.org before tried to throw it in the
0:10:55 claud and it would say oh this file is too large and it would be like 20 megabytes yeah so i went on
0:11:01 google and i said pdf compression tool right and i found a free pdf compressor and it would compress
0:11:07 that you know 25 megabyte pdf down into a one megabyte pdf without changing any of the text in
0:11:12 the pdf and then i was able to pull it into claud so if you actually run into that issue with like
0:11:17 a pdf on claud yeah just go and compress it down into a smaller file size and it’ll typically work
0:11:24 but claud is amazing at summarizing documents like taking an archive.org document and just
0:11:28 shrinking it down yeah definitely claud’s a great at writing like it’s definitely the
0:11:33 best llm at writing right now for sure at summarization if i had to guess 01 is probably
0:11:38 better now you think i had to guess but like you know i just we just flew out to boston from you
0:11:42 know me from japan i haven’t had much time to actually like play with it right but you know from
0:11:46 people i trust on twitter and things like that who’ve been trying it out that’s what i’ve been
0:11:50 hearing is like yeah in terms of editing anything that’s complex so i assume like summarization
0:11:55 probably fit into that as well do you know what the context window is of open io one does it have
0:11:59 a limited context window i actually don’t no yeah i’m not sure either we did you know that
0:12:05 producer yeah so the other thing that i really so both claud and chat gpt have these features
0:12:10 where you can kind of create your own little like almost like mini apps inside of them right i don’t
0:12:14 know the better way to describe it but you have custom gpt’s over on chat gpt and then you’ve got
0:12:20 projects over inside of claud right and what this allows you to do is create like custom instructions
0:12:25 for a specific use case that you might use over and over again but also feed it some documents
0:12:30 where you want it to use those documents for context right every time you use it both chat gpt
0:12:35 and claud can do that but like we were talking about this off air claud just has a better user
0:12:42 interface it just feels a lot more into it yeah i mean it’s you know we’ll be right back but first
0:12:46 i want to tell you about another great podcast you’re going to want to listen to it’s called
0:12:52 science of scaling hosted by mark robert and it’s brought to you by the hub spot podcast network
0:12:58 the audio destination for business professionals each week hosts mark robert founding chief revenue
0:13:04 officer at hub spot senior lecturer at harvard business school and co-founder of stage two capital
0:13:10 sits down with the most successful sales leaders in tech to learn the secrets strategies and tactics
0:13:15 to scaling your company’s growth he recently did a great episode called how do you solve for a
0:13:20 siloed marketing and sales and i personally learned a lot from it you’re gonna want to check out the
0:13:29 podcast listen to science of scaling wherever you get your podcasts so opening i actually came up
0:13:33 with the first as far as we know they did yeah you know they they came up with custom instructions
0:13:37 which was great because like okay now you can actually give the you know chat gpt like context
0:13:40 but it was like okay it’s like very generic though because you can’t tell like oh because
0:13:43 sometimes i’m working on the my newsletter sometimes i’m doing twitter or sometimes
0:13:47 personal stuff whatever yeah like you you know you couldn’t give it to that you know you had to
0:13:51 give it all the context for all the stuff yeah and then with a then they came out with the custom
0:13:57 gpt’s and then you can do okay i have one for you know getting in shape i have one for my newsletter
0:14:00 you know all this kind of stuff so but the the user interface was always really awkward and then
0:14:04 there’s like and then there’s gonna be like a public store and then there’s gonna be your revenue
0:14:06 share so confusing i didn’t know they were actually doing the revenue share like on that one
0:14:10 episode we did with ziki we found out like oh they actually are paying people like we do share
0:14:15 revenue but i’m not allowed to tell you about it yeah he also told me you know behind the scenes
0:14:18 that he’s also been pretty good for for legion actually as well like people are just because
0:14:22 there’s a link to his website right so that’s that’s cool but like for like a regular person
0:14:25 claud came out of the projects and i think it’s just it’s so much better just like a whole interface
0:14:30 where it’s like okay here’s the here’s the project and i can put files in it i can put notes in it
0:14:34 whatever to teach it to give it all the context it needs to accomplish something yeah just having
0:14:38 to you know like when chat gpt first came out if you want to do that i’d like to be copying and
0:14:43 pasting stuff into it there’s all this stuff you need to know and here let me copy and paste that in
0:14:47 yeah yeah so like one example just to sort of make it more tangible for people and i’ve shared
0:14:51 this example on past episodes so if you’re hearing this again well i’m just solidifying the idea for
0:14:57 you but one of the ways that i use it lately is for youtube shorts and script writing for youtube
0:15:04 shorts and what i’ve done is i’ve created a custom project inside of claud where i went and found
0:15:09 about 15 different transcripts of shorts that i found on youtube that i thought were really really
0:15:14 good shorts they hooked me in i watched the whole time this this short worked for me it’s got you
0:15:19 know half a million a million views it’s working for other people this is a good short right i went
0:15:25 and took the transcripts from those shorts and i loaded those 15 transcripts into a project inside
0:15:31 of claud and then for the the custom instructions for that prompt i would say i in your knowledge base
0:15:36 i’ve given you a bunch of transcripts of youtube shorts that are really really effective i’m going
0:15:42 to give you a topic when i give you a topic write a short for me write a script for a short for me
0:15:49 that is very similar in style and flow to the information that i gave you so now i can go and
0:15:55 for instance grab a blog post about something that happened in the news right i can grab a blog
0:16:01 goes i wanted i just put published it’s about open ai 01 i went and took the article that explains
0:16:07 open ai 01 from their blog pasted it into this custom project that i made gave no other prompt
0:16:12 i just literally copied and pasted the article in it knows what it needs to do because of the
0:16:18 custom instructions and it wrote me a 59 second script that sounds like a lot of the scripts
0:16:24 that i uploaded it hits all the right beats all the right points yeah and so that’s sort of a
0:16:29 tangible example of like what projects can be used for your workflow that saves you so much time too
0:16:33 right yeah you know before i think it was good that we came out here to inbound like you know
0:16:36 especially for me to get out of japan for a bit and actually talk to people in english i was surprised
0:16:41 how many people like just don’t know like about projects or or even custom gpt’s and how that how
0:16:45 much time that can save you they’re still in the land of like they just go to chat to bt every time
0:16:50 and they’re starting fresh with like it having no context yeah every single time and then they’re
0:16:55 kind of confused by why you can’t do more and it’s like yeah if you provide it more context it can
0:17:00 do a whole lot more than you’re currently thinking yes even with the current abilities of it so
0:17:03 and so i think it’s good that people like learn that and like so yeah claud’s the best for custom
0:17:08 projects but you can still do it with chat to bt most people use chat bt yeah you can do it with
0:17:13 custom gpt yeah you don’t make that public either keep it private and it’s just for you yeah same
0:17:17 same with the claud projects you can actually i i believe you can share them i don’t it’s not public
0:17:20 like they don’t have a marketplace yeah but you can share a link and let other people use your
0:17:24 projects i believe i believe i believe you give me sure like the entire team yeah i believe so
0:17:28 the other really cool thing about claud is their artifacts yeah so if you are going to use it for
0:17:33 code it will actually show you the code in the same window and actually let you run the code if
0:17:37 it’s something that’ll run in a browser so if it’s like a java script or a python code or something
0:17:42 that can actually be executed in the browser right it will actually let you run it side by side with
0:17:47 your chat so you have your chat window on the left side and on the right side you’ve actually got
0:17:53 your code and there’s usually a little like toggle switch to actually view the code and if the website
0:17:58 populates on the right side and you can see oh that link is broken or this needs to be centered
0:18:03 you go to the left side of the chat box and say hey center the headline center the call the action
0:18:07 button or whatever and i always thought that was really cool to not have to like open it in a new
0:18:11 tab see what it looks like jump back it’s just all right there on the single window yeah they’re
0:18:15 really nailing it like on the user interface right because like why does open AI not have that
0:18:20 right like they should have that yeah like they were there at first and they just missed it and the
0:18:25 same thing like you know i mean i’m hearing that 01 or 01 preview is the best at coding yeah and like
0:18:29 well if they had the thing where you could see the artifacts and actually see it live that would
0:18:33 show to so many more people there’s like a lot of great engineers on twitter talking about you know
0:18:38 who’ve been like really skeptical of AI and they’ve now tried 01 preview and they’re like okay it’s
0:18:42 not amazing yet but like everyone was over hyping things before like it would give you code that
0:18:46 sometimes worked sometimes didn’t yeah this is like a decent not a great engineer but it’s like
0:18:52 a decent junior level engineer yeah yeah and that’s a huge step forward and especially now that you
0:18:56 know open AI is saying it’s going to get better and better faster and faster now so yeah yeah that’s
0:19:01 okay well and then and then we’ve also got google right so google has gemini yeah and one of the
0:19:05 beautiful parts about gentleman i is it’s got this monstrous context window i can’t remember
0:19:08 it’s a million or if it’s up to 10 million i know at one point they keep increasing it says like it’s
0:19:12 like it’s at some point it’s like it’s going i know at one point they said it’s going to be 10
0:19:16 million but when they launched it was a million i don’t know where it’s at now it might be at
0:19:20 one two million and they might have already bumped into 10 million i don’t remember it would like
0:19:24 ram with computers and like it’s okay yeah one gig two gig four or whatever and just to put that
0:19:31 into context right so so a 10 million context window means that you can upload about 7.5 million
0:19:36 words between between what you give it and what you get back the combination of the two can be
0:19:42 about 7.5 million words that’s like all of the harry potter books all of the game of thrones
0:19:48 books the bible all of that combined all into a single like yeah you can put all of that in there
0:19:55 all at once right and so when it comes to what is google gemini good at is the largest in terms of
0:20:01 context window and how much data you can upload into it but one thing that google did recently
0:20:07 with gemini that i think is really really cool is the the notebook lm that’s that’s the one where
0:20:12 you can actually upload all of these documents and it will create an audio podcast for you
0:20:17 out of these documents have you seen that yet i haven’t no my gosh oh you’re going to play with
0:20:22 this so notebook lm yeah you can go to it i believe i don’t know if you have to be a paid member of
0:20:29 gemini or not but you can go into this notebook lm and it’s you can drop files into a folder so
0:20:36 you can go to like archive.org download the most complex research paper you’ve ever seen
0:20:42 that you have no idea what it means right pull that pdf throw it into this notebook lm tool yeah
0:20:50 and notebook lm will actually generate an audio podcast for you that explains the pdf and it’s
0:20:54 it’s two hosts there’s a male and a female host their ai generated voices yeah and they have a
0:20:57 conversation back and forth kind of like the conversation we’re having now right they have
0:21:03 a conversation back and forth that explains the pdf in terms that like anybody can understand
0:21:08 and because they have such a large context window you can throw a ton of documents in here
0:21:14 right you can you can go and find like we can go and throw the blog post about chat gpt in there a
0:21:19 blog post explaining claud in there a blog post explaining grok a blog post explaining gemini
0:21:26 throw all of that data in there yeah and then it’ll it’ll create a podcast out of that information
0:21:31 that explains the pros and the cons and the the differences between the two yeah it seems like
0:21:35 google’s doing a lot of cool stuff it’s just like people don’t know about it and even me like i i
0:21:38 know about some of it but it’s like it’s hard to get the habit like i have the habit of using
0:21:44 chat gpt and even you know i use claud a bit now it’s so hard like there’s so many of them yeah yeah
0:21:50 yeah so i mean like i i have a feeling we’re going to start hearing a lot a lot of ai generated
0:21:56 podcasts because of it because you anybody can go and take the latest like 10 news articles in the
0:22:03 ai world throw them all into notebook lm and then have it spit out a podcast for you explaining
0:22:07 what’s going on in all of these news articles oh no our buddy is already doing the tit ai podcast
0:22:14 and then if you want to take it to a next level too you can create some like custom characters
0:22:19 inside of like mid journey or or you know flux or Leonardo or whatever ai image you use create
0:22:26 some images of some characters throw those into like a hey gen or a di and have them actually
0:22:31 talking so you have you can make video content of two people having a podcast conversation
0:22:36 based on all of the data that you uploaded and that’s all totally possible right now like today
0:22:41 with current the next level like vtuber or something too like there’s yeah except the vtuber
0:22:46 doesn’t even exist it’s all graduated with ai it’s it’s really wild notebook lm is one of the
0:22:49 things i’ve had a lot of fun playing with i think once you actually go mess with it you’ll be like
0:22:54 oh damn this is cool okay that’s what jimna is good at huge context and and making podcasts yeah
0:23:03 replacing us yeah the disclaimer this is actually not as talking this is yeah surprise this is
0:23:10 notebook lm all along you know and also jim and i does have their own version of gp custom gpt’s
0:23:17 and projects they call them gems but they’re not nearly as robust you can’t do as much with them
0:23:21 they don’t seem to connect to like apis or use tools or anything like that but you can give it
0:23:27 your own context and your own custom instructions similar to you can with projects and and with
0:23:34 custom gpt’s i haven’t played with gems at all yet because i have my needs met with claud and
0:23:39 chat gpt already but they have that as well if that’s something you’re interested in and then we
0:23:46 also wanted to talk quickly about llama so llama is open source right and llama is it doesn’t really
0:23:53 excel in any of the areas we’ve talked about right like claud sonnet 3.5 is going to be better than
0:23:59 the outputs for llama for the most part same with the latest models of chat gpt same with jim and i
0:24:05 all of those closed off models they’re going to be a little bit better but if you really really
0:24:10 want like your data to be secure you want to run it on your own hard drive you don’t want it to be
0:24:14 connected to the internet you don’t want your data going to open ai you don’t want your data going to
0:24:19 google or anthropic or any of these companies that’s where tools like llama come into play because
0:24:26 you can install them locally on your own computer and they’re pretty good i mean for 90 plus percent
0:24:30 of use cases for people they’re going to be good enough right you know and so that’s really where
0:24:35 llama comes into play the other thing about llama is because it’s open source people can build off
0:24:40 of it they can iterate off of it they can go and make their own sort of fine tunes of it and you
0:24:47 know tweak it and train it and sort of mold it so if you wanted an uncensored llama you can get
0:24:50 there if you wanted to you actually ever use it though if you just only tried it because i’ve only
0:24:55 tried it i haven’t i’ve never built a habit of actually using it so i use a llama a little bit
0:25:00 but it’s only because i have my meta ray band sunglasses and llama is built into it so i’ve
0:25:05 used llama like built into the sunglasses i’m glad it exists though like i’ve said before
0:25:09 like i hate the idea of everything being open ai and you know they’re like collaborating with the
0:25:13 us government as well it’s like in the future like the idea that like all of our intelligence
0:25:18 is in control by one company right it’s kind of scary so i’m glad it exists yeah and then and then
0:25:25 you know finally we’ve got grok right and grok again i don’t know if it’s like really better
0:25:29 than any of the other ones at almost anything well it has access to twitter data so that’s
0:25:34 that’s one thing yeah so it’s got the twitter data and it’s completely uncensored like completely
0:25:38 like well like nine point nine nine yeah i mean i’ve asked it questions that i thought for sure
0:25:43 there’s no way it was going to answer yeah and it answered it for me like broke down recipes it should
0:25:51 not be giving me things like that okay and now you’re like a fbi watcher but it is very very
0:25:56 uncensored it’s got a really cool image generation model built into it called flux one which is capable
0:26:02 of making really really realistic images yeah and also pretty uncensored i’m not gonna say fully
0:26:08 uncensored because it’s not going to do any like uh like super adult content right but it’s uncensored
0:26:13 in the terms that you can prompt anybody’s names like celebrities and you know like crazy political
0:26:17 memes or whatever right that’s one of the things people aren’t using it for a lot yeah which by
0:26:23 the way is illegal in california as of this week did you did you see that yeah so gabin Newsom
0:26:29 in california just signed a bill basically making making like political memes that were generated
0:26:32 with ai illegal in california but we don’t need to get there we don’t we don’t need to get i have a
0:26:35 feeling that’s gonna go to the supreme court but anyways yeah yeah that that’s gonna be interesting
0:26:41 to watch play out i mean elon must move to austin now so he’s not really under california rules
0:26:45 but as soon as that law came out elon went and posted some sort of crazy meme and said oh this
0:26:50 this would suck if this ended up being seen in california or something right so you know elon
0:26:56 he’s a troll yeah um yeah i mean so so grok is it’s it’s gotten better though like the fact like
0:27:00 they started for like nothing like what was like a year ago or it wasn’t that long and it was like
0:27:04 people are like oh there’s no way he’s gonna catch up it’s like well he hasn’t caught up but like
0:27:08 it’s pretty decent now yeah like you know i’m not going to use it over chat to bt obviously but it’s
0:27:12 it’s decent so what you’re talking about this before you hit record but what sort of like
0:27:18 use cases would you use it for like in terms of it like hunting twitter profiles for you yeah i’ve
0:27:21 used it a little bit like this i think it was robert scope it was someone like that who shared
0:27:26 how they were using it uh that you can like pull up data about users right like you can pull up like
0:27:30 like what kind of tweets do they do what are their top tweets just anything you know i’m not using
0:27:34 it a lot for that you know use case i don’t really have a huge need for that yeah but it works for
0:27:38 that it’s like it’s it’s the best for that right now yeah i mean also you can pull up things about
0:27:42 news too right because it’s got access to what people are tweeting about yeah information about
0:27:48 something that’s currently hot and happening right now is probably the best for that yeah but
0:27:53 there is also some downside so as well right like well yeah if people are posting memes as if
0:27:57 it’s real news it might think it’s real news and feed it back to you right so there’s that as well
0:28:02 and then the the very last one i want to touch on really quickly because i think when it when it
0:28:08 comes to research right when you want to like deep dive and learn on a topic or you know find
0:28:13 information about something specific it actually needs to search the web i still think perplexity
0:28:19 hands down is the best yeah now perplexity is model agnostic if you have a pro membership
0:28:24 for perplexity you can get in there and choose i want to use gpt for they actually just added open
0:28:29 ai o o one in there as well as one of the models you can use you can pick claud you can pick lama
0:28:34 you can pick any of these models and it will use whatever your model of choice is but what it’ll
0:28:39 do is it’ll search the internet find information for you and then once it finds the information
0:28:44 it uses its large language model to help sort of summarize and make the information that it
0:28:49 gathered for you a little bit easier to digest yeah i mean perplexity i mean i mean there was a
0:28:53 reason that you know we got air vans around about the ceo to come on he’s like one of our first two
0:28:57 guests i guess yeah yeah and that was the reason that i wanted to get him on because like yeah i’ve
0:29:02 been using perplexity for like since the early days of it’s like it’s been one of the most useful
0:29:06 things and like early on most people didn’t know about it and people in silicon valley were talking
0:29:09 about it but like outside of that it was like oh it was everything was chat to bt i’m like
0:29:13 people are kind of sleeping on perplexity it’s like pretty damn good yeah yeah yeah no i love
0:29:19 perplexity i mean honestly when it comes to using ai just yeah the ai tool that i use the most
0:29:24 more than any other ai tool right now for me it’s perplexity yeah i go to perplexity more than any
0:29:29 other ai tool because i just get random ideas like i’ll be i’ll be walking and i’ll see like a
0:29:33 tall building and i’ll think it’s like a fascinating architecture and i’ll just be like
0:29:38 who built this building and why does it look so cool or you know something really random like i
0:29:43 just asked so many random questions to perplexity it like feeds my curiosity it’s amazing for podcast
0:29:48 too right like so we you know here at inbound there was a event yesterday where like a bunch of
0:29:52 podcasts hosts were there and i talked to a few of them and they didn’t know about this they didn’t
0:29:55 know they’re like oh yeah when you’re when you’re interviewing somebody perplexity is by far the
0:29:58 best way to like pull up notes about what you should talk to them about yeah you just have to be
0:30:03 careful because sometimes it will pull up like linked in profiles of like the complete wrong person
0:30:08 like if you start asking questions about matt wolf yeah well there’s a professional golfer named
0:30:12 matt wolf also right and so talking about golf and you like what it’ll give you a mix right like
0:30:17 i’ve had it summarized and it’ll say you know matt wolf co-host the next wave podcast he’s got a
0:30:23 popular youtube channel he’s you know his handicap at golf is like and it will it’ll start to like
0:30:29 blend the two so you probably want to double check sometimes but for the most part it’s pretty good
0:30:35 right it’s pretty dang good but you know to go ahead and wrap this one up i want to kind of
0:30:41 let’s like sort of rapid fire like use cases best tool for that use case right so like
0:30:49 copywriting and storytelling for me i’m probably going to claud yeah claud yeah for coding for me
0:30:55 i’m probably still going to claud but maybe open aio one i haven’t tried it for coding yet myself
0:31:00 yeah i mean i i think i code more than you right so like i like i’m more you know for you i think
0:31:04 when you can use claud you can actually just see it right there right which is obviously
0:31:09 awesome yeah but you know as someone who codes like for me like you know o one you know preview
0:31:13 at least from what i’ve heard from people i trust if it’s better than yeah i’d definitely be going
0:31:17 with o one yeah yeah i’d be using in some like cursor yeah cursors for sure cursor is great
0:31:22 it’s a it’s a fork of visual studio code with like ai built into it yeah where you can like
0:31:26 read your whole code base and have it basically has context of your entire code base when you’re
0:31:30 working on something yeah amazing yeah i mean since open ai o one came out i’ve literally been traveling
0:31:36 the entire month so i have not had like a a focus session to play with it so my answer might change
0:31:43 on that one yeah um you want something completely uncensored anything goes i think groc is the
0:31:49 obvious answer for that one right yeah um also really really realistic images yeah great memes
0:31:53 yeah good for memes great for making memes great like the images it it’ll generate like
0:31:58 really realistic pictures of of people that either exist or don’t exist right it’s right really good
0:32:04 at that with flux one built into it yeah so math science logic that kind of stuff we’re looking
0:32:09 at open ai o one that’s really the only one that’s going to do that really well right now right right
0:32:14 for research for me perplexity like i said that’s the one i think we’re the same on most of these
0:32:18 like a major yeah disagreements and then if you need super super long context you need to upload
0:32:22 all the harry potter books and all the lord of the rings books and all the game of thrones books
0:32:28 and you need to find a good comparison between all of them you’re going to go to gemini and then
0:32:33 also gemini is really good to create this podcast yeah we’re for creating a podcast and replacing
0:32:39 our jobs yes yeah so that’s kind of the the breakdown i guess of like what these different
0:32:46 models are good at and what we use them for i think that about i think that covers everything
0:32:50 so you know if you’re you’re listening to this podcast and you like stuff like this
0:32:54 make sure you subscribe to us on youtube we’re going to keep on putting out videos like this
0:32:57 we’re going to get a lot more tactical we’re going to give you a lot more use cases a lot
0:33:02 more ways to actually implement this ai in your business so subscribe on youtube if you if you
0:33:07 prefer audio we’re wherever you find podcasts so make sure you subscribe on all of those platforms
