Introduction

Hi, so I will ask you to participate.

Interactive Audience Poll

So you had a talk that was very human, a talk that was very technical, and I'm going to do both. So the idea first will be to see a bit where you are, each one of you. So please go to menti.com and use these codes. Okay, with your phone, menti.com, and you use this code, the 422954.

And, okay. Thank you. Okay, 17, 18. Okay, count 27, so five more. Okay, this will be quick.

All good? Yeah? Okay, let's go.

Okay, so first, how would you, ah, you already did it. You already, ah, okay, okay, no, I thought it was one by one. Okay, so we already got the answers.

Baseline Knowledge and Familiarity

So most of you consider that you're beginners, okay, in your technical knowledge of AI, and 30%, okay, We have almost everyone. Okay, so mostly beginners and 30% intermediate. Okay, no expert, no advanced. Okay, good because I prepared an example that will be accessible for all of you.

So what are you familiar with? Chatbots and custom GPTs for most of you. Specific tools, not so much.

Maybe it's not clear for you, but it could be like Canva AI or tools that give you specific a task automation using apis okay i think that's you danny no full automation full automation okay and none of the above okay okay i miss one person

Let's go to the next one. Okay.

Expectations From AI

What do you expect AI to do for you? Work less, live more. That's a good one.

Also make repetitive tasks. Productivity, efficiency, deciding on complex scenarios. Don't know what to expect. Okay. That's a good one.

slow task abc task boring and repetitive everything manual ai is the best it's gonna replace us all yeah it will eventually replace us and probably get rid of us come on hard skill and theory about something complex automate repetitive task work for me boring task make my work so mostly making your life easier or your work life easier at least

Strategy, all the stuff I personally don't want to care about. Yeah. So it's why we build machines, actually, to do the things that we don't want to do. So it kind of makes sense.

They'll probably get rid of us. I don't see the future, so I cannot say. But I don't think that's what we're working towards.

Humanoids, to make my bed and cook for me. OK. I'm still miss future, still eight persons missing.

Generate money, yes. So either through doing your job for you or through doing a job that you wouldn't do yourself, but that could work for you. So trading money, or trading in general. Okay. Yeah, I can trade for you. You can have a trading vote.

But it's true that it's easier to start with something that you already know how to do because you can supervise the result and you can consider if it works well or not. If you're using it for something that you don't know how it works, it might give you a good result, but you won't be able to assess the result. I mean, you will see the consequences, but maybe not the process or improving the process.

Top Priorities to Automate

Okay, and the most important for you to automate daily task first, data analysis and insight, marketing and social, sales and prospection, meetings and follow up.

Okay so that was just to have a little bit of a view on where you're at and what's important for you. I mean this is representative of the people here today but in general it's what we will find around doing all the boring stuff for us.

Okay, not planning to use AI tools. Okay. Okay.

Practical Tips and Tools

so I'm going to give you some tips that you might implement today right after this talk or during this talk maybe let's see okay thank you everything you'll see today has been made by AI I've just helped the AI make it better but the every thing that you will see for example this one was made with cloud so I don't know if you know but cloud has artifacts so it can create animated pages with HTML CSS and JavaScript for you

okay that one I had to work hard on this one because at first he did it well but whenever I iterated like more than five times or then it stopped and even though it's the paid version at some point I had to wait a few hours to retouch it and in the end I had to touch the code make the code better and just make it finish up to make it make it look good but so that would be how we evolve when it comes to learning AI.

From Prompts to Workflows: The Learning Path

So from basic chat prompts, to building your own GPTs for specific objectives, to using AI apps for, for example, social media, to creating your own automation with no code or local tools or with code, when you know, and building your complex workflow. So that would be what we suggest before.

Agents, Teams, and Full Systems

and then the no code building that's wrong that one shouldn't be here and you can build agent teams so you could build a flows that you see before that goes step by step or you can also build flows where You would have like a team of human but there would be agents and one would be the writer, one would be the one that checks what the writer did and then they don't have to be linearly programmed but they can arrive at a certain point that you need them.

And then like master level the full AI system where it does everything for you.

Self-Assessment: Where Are You Now?

So examples would be, let's see who feels that you're at that level right now, like just writing basic prompts, just show your hand. Okay.

Who feels that you're at level three, building your own custom GPTs? No. Okay.

Level four automated workflows. Yeah. Okay.

Level five, multi-step automation. OK.

Six, AI assistant integrated. No?

Seven? And a full AI system. OK.

Choosing Your Depth

okay so that would be the if you really want to dig deeper that would be the the path you would follow now many people will stop at one or one two three some people will go a bit further to four it's not wrong it's whatever you're interested in if you want to dig deeper or not

Speaker’s Experience

I'm around level six, but at some point when it comes to building very complex workflows, I'm asking other people to do it because they enjoy spending time doing it and I don't. So for me, it's more of a burden if I have to do that.

I like to try things around, to try new tools.

Toolbox Check: What Do You Use?

So who knows ChatGPT? Okay, come on. Okay, who knows Cloud? Okay, who knows Perplexity?

Okay, so you will be happy because I'll give you a tip with Perplexity. Okay, who built custom chats with ChatGPT or Cloud or even projects with Perplexity? Okay, and task with Grok?

no brock but it has tasks and it sends you an email and no okay so and specific tools like notion ai is there anyone who use it yeah canva ai maybe if you're in university or studying that one is super useful comet it's limited access comet is limited access no for from perplexity

I'm going to show you how to use it. No, I mean, you have to pay for the Perplexity Pro, but apart from that, it's not limited, not regionally.

Okay, and automation, who built something with Dapier, Make, or 8n? okay okay thanks a who used a coding assistance like lovable cursor replete okay or maybe others yeah a and who used agent like auto GPT crew AI long chain okay

That's pretty rare. Not so many people use them. OK.

And who actually used Ulama, LM Studio, or Hugging Face? Yeah? OK. Good.

You say you're not technical, but I have some technical profile. OK.

Autonomy vs. Control in AI Workflows

1So when it comes to AI, you want to see how much they can do on their own, their level of autonomy, and how how big is their impact they can have on your work.

So depending on what you need and how much control you want to have, you will use either basic prompts where you're sure that you check every step on the way up to a full automation where you let it do it and you just check the result and enjoy it.

And in the middle, you can work with all of them depending on what you want to do.

Live Demo: Prospecting on LinkedIn with Comet

so you your journey will will follow this and and now i'll make you a try a quiz see where you are at so before you just told me where you know before that i'll show you comment okay so you'll use linkedin right here

yeah okay do you spend time adding people one by one checking their profile and checking yeah okay so i've tried something so this is comet so it's a browser that has perplexity inside so in comet you can ask the assistant to do something for you and for example in this case i have it here so i'll copy okay in this case I've asked a comment to look for five. So I'm connected to my account and I will let it look for five potential clients that are not yet in my contact and send an invitation to connect without a message. Because when I don't say that, it will write a message and I don't want to do it.

Okay. So it will create a table because after that, I want... So I've tried to make it... fill in the table, and it worked two times, and then it didn't work anymore. So I stopped doing it. I just made it do the table. So let's just have a look at how it does it.

So it worked really well the first time. Then the second time, it went to profiles that I wasn't really interested in. The third time, it didn't put it in the air table anymore.

And now, a few days later, I realize that it's connected with people I didn't want to connect to. So because I was trying it, I wasn't really checking. So I did that. And then I went to something else. And I was like, oops, I didn't want to connect to that person. Too late. He said yes.

Lessons Learned and Safeguards

anything that's where it's good to have automation it's good to have autonomy but check it like maybe you won't be happy with the result even though it's not it's not that wrong you know at the end of the day it's just like connecting with people on LinkedIn but of basic tasks that takes you time and that you might not want to be like everyday checking, but just like taking the time and having a look.

Anything I'm trying out when I experiment with new AI, I try to do it with another email, another account, so it doesn't blow up everything I've built on my actual social media. So because I don't have so much time, I won't let it go because it's like about eight minutes, but for you to have an idea,

Okay. Is that person good for me? She's in the education sector and that's interesting for me, but actually she's in event sectors. That's not so much. Okay.

And at the end, it's giving me a note for the person and also why it's good for me. So what happens also with Comet is that I trained it. So the AI actually knows what I'm selling and to whom.

Training the Assistant and Costs

So I'm selling a program that is how to create an AI class for any educational company and how to train their teachers and monitors how to use it. But yeah, Comet, you can use it, and you just download it, and you put your account there. Yeah, I mean, you have to pay for the Perplexity Pro, but that's it. And you can continue working, and you can actually do more than one.

Reliability and Verification

But everything we said before, AI, it's not completely reliable. Even if you put the same prompt, you might not have the same result. So check it.

Alternative Automation Paths

There are other ways to automate many, many other ways. So from custom GPTs to building your own workflows, but I wanted to show you one that actually is easy for anyone who is not technical and easy to use and easy to follow.

Okay.

Conclusion and Quiz

Okay, I'll stop here and I'll just share with you one quiz.
