It's Chris. I am so excited to be back here with an impromptu video. This is like our Heart-Centered Apps webinar series we're doing with Airtable, but we're doing an offshoot. Heart-Centered Apps plus AI. And today I am with Lisa Vo. Hi, Lisa. Hi, how are you, Chris? Fine. Now, Lisa, you and I know each other from the Airtable group on Facebook. That is correct. Yep. Now, we've got like 10,000 people in there. Yeah. It's grown immensely. I remember the first time you posted in there and I was just looking for a community to kind of like give me help, you know, support questions. And yeah, it's just grown in the past few years. This is my first time attending Daretable, which is coming up pretty soon. So I'm super excited for that. Oh my gosh. I did not. You were an attendee till just now. So you're one of the attendees? I am. Yeah. Oh my gosh. It is so crazy all the good stuff are going to happening, but this is not about Daretable. So Lisa reached out to me, I guess about a month or so ago, and I posted a little bit about AI. I've been posting more and more about AI lately. It's where people like, do Airtable content. I never do Airtable content. Then AI comes along and I'm posting all this Airtable content about getting together on this video today. So why don't you share with us a little bit about what you do and how you use Airtable and then how you use AI and we'll unpack that. Sure. So I do multiple different streams of income. So main thing is I am licensed, I'm a licensed realtor in Texas. I'm also running a transaction coordinating company. So basically we do all the paperwork on the agent's behalf. And then recently the past few years, I use a specific CRM, a software system called Follow-A-Boss. So I'm an approved Follow-A-Boss consultant. So what do I do all day? I talk to agents about their systems, what technology they can integrate together to make their lives just much easier, which led me over to Airtable. I was using Google Spreadsheets. I was using Monday.com, Trello, all these different productivity tools and Airtable literally encompasses it all. Like it just does amazing things. There's so much to learn. If you haven't checked it out, really high recommend Airtable. And so I actually help people where they use Follow-A-Boss for just managing their day-to-day contacts and things like that. And once they go under contract where they have a listing, all of that information goes to Airtable. So they can run what we call their back office, entire productions. Basically every single analytic is inside Airtable and that's what's powering their entire operations. Amazing. And how in the world did you go from 100 different tools, Monday.com, Trello, all the ones you mentioned, to Airtable, to now getting involved and starting to work more with AI? I mean, does that feel like you jumped through three major poops in the past about three years, four years? Yeah, it's a really quick time period. Just looking at how technology has developed over time. And you know, you hear in the industry, the newest coolest productivity tools. So I'm always checking out different YouTube and Facebook and browsing the community for what's next. And so AI had came up to say, this can save you hundreds of hours. And I'm like, so what is it? Right? So just like everybody else, I got on the wait list. I got the free chat GPT tool, who I tested it out. So using a lot more for just like marketing, simple basic things. Hey, take this email and rewrite it in a very sympathetic tone. Right? Because sometimes we go over really harsh. So just basic things like that, that's how I got into it. But it was a productivity tool. That's how it kind of came about. It does different things. And so having these three simple basic tools are like my day-to-day go-to items. It's wild, isn't it? How it is like a day-to-day tool. Yeah, same thing with me. I've always been kind of an early adopter, but I'm also super careful about sharing with people when I adopt something.  Right? So like you don't, don't mention it until you're sure. But like you, once I saw the value prop and how chat GPT just became part of my day, I was like, this is amazing. Then the more I dug into it, like, okay, this isn't writing emails. This is doing so many more features. But I thought we'd start with like a little bit around just chat GPT, like the understanding of it. Because I think as a large language model, we hear that word thrown around sometimes. It's kind of hard to kind of get your head around it. So can I share with you how I explain it to other people or show you how I explain to people? Yeah, I go for it. Yeah. So I've got a couple, I guess, visual aids here. So first things first, we're talking about all these different tools, Airtable, AI and everything else. So I created this stack diagram to help people understand where I do things. So just like you, I kind of have a part of my day vertically here for when I'm brainstorming, then a part of my day for when I'm designing, when I'm building, when I'm actually publicizing and when I'm monetizing. So when I think about no code and AI and all these things, obviously, I can have it write emails, the brainstorming stuff, but I can have it do a lot of thinking for me. But for me, it's really always been about making it actionable. And then I take those silos and kind of break them across horizontally. So I have a design horizontal layer, which is like, okay, I can draw pictures and create bases and put front ends on them and use AI do all that. But like, where do I get the idea for the imagery? And I basically have two that I use. Streamline, which is just a bunch of icons and like a design set, and then JoyPixels. So one issue to tell is super businessy, very black and white and what is more colorful. After that, I have my no code stack horizontally. I always start with everything in Miro. I'd like draw pictures and like, hey, I kind of wanted to feel like this stuff like that. I do a lot of mind maps, like, okay, they would go like this. Then obviously I take that and go to AirTable and build something. From there, I will actually always put a front end on it. I use Pory, but they're stacker, softer. There's a lot of front ends now and it's more and more every single day. So when I say front end, that just means your AirTable is great as are your data, but you want something like an accessible public website without more licenses. And then, to me, the last step is always monetization. A lot of people think the website is monetization, but if someone can't book time with you or buy something you're doing right now, I think it's kind of, why did you build it? Does it sound hard that way? It sounds hard, doesn't it? No, it's great. Like I love the flow and it needs to be strategic or everything that you're building and putting together. So this is a great timeline for people to follow. Exactly, I always tell people, it's got to make you money. And then the last layer obviously is the AI layer, right? And that's actually the foundational layer because as you said, from writing emails to having it create concepts and ideas, each one of these things kind of fall over it. So for Miro, I can have it create business ideas, value propositions. When it comes to AirTable, I can literally have it create, sorry, my dogs are fighting. I have it create the table structure. I have it create the fill-in fields and we'll do all this today. When it comes to Pory, I actually have it create content, the legal terms and processes, the SEO updates, marketing, I mean, all this kind of stuff. And then I even use something called Synesthesia, which takes the scripts from all that content and uses AI-generated people to speak. Wow, I'd like that, yeah. I'll show you some of that. I wasn't planning to, but actually I'll remember to do that right now. So once I have that done and have that process, that's how I do my work. But let's roll back and let's look at this open AI layer. When we think of large language models, it's really sometimes it's hard for people to get their head around it. So I always like to use this slide. So like if you take all the data, everything from that training, foundational model adaptation, forget all that, just look at the data silo in front of you. All of that exists on the internet today. There's lots of texts, there's lots of images, there's videos, structured data, unstructured data, there's signals coming in for all these systems saying I'm up, I'm down, et cetera. And you create a training on it. Training just means look at these things and bring it back in a way that it's understandable. And if it's not understandable, I'm going to train you on how to understand it. And I think a lot of people struggle with this idea of training. And training is just like if someone handed you this pile of paper, no, no technology, just this pile of paper. And I said, Lisa, here's my paper, Lisa. You'd be like, oh, you got a letter here from Scott Triff. You got something from the New York State Tax Department. You got a bill from the doctor's office. So yeah, Chris, I'll organize this for you. You're just training. Does that make sense? Yeah. You're going to take these and put them in order. That's all training is. From there, it creates what we call the foundational model. So the foundation model is basically how it knows to respond to the world. And then it can adapt. So you can say, hey, answer a question on this stack of paper. Hey, tell me how the stack of paper feels is it good news? Is it bad news? Hey, show me where this is in that stack of paper. Extraction, right? Is this making sense? I don't know if I've ever had to explain this publicly before. Yeah, no, it makes perfect sense. All right. So that's kind of AI and large language models at a high level. At a low level, when it comes down to you and me and everyday life, all of this work has been done for us. So we really come down to now, how do we talk to it? And that comes into this concept that you've probably heard. It's all over the internet now called prompt engineering. Have you heard of prompt engineering? Yep. Really popular right now. Really popular right now. And to me, prompt engineering, if we just remove all the tech, is just how you would maybe train a puppy or raise a child. It's just that you get some information back from the puppy or the child and you teach it how that information should look. Right? So you're teaching a dog to sit. He's not going to understand the word sit. He's not going to understand anything. But he'll occasionally just sit on his own and that's when you say, that's a sit. Right? And then when you want him to sit, you say sit and then eventually you get rid of the word and use a hand signal. So I always think of people like there's a couple different parts of the prompt. There's the description. So basically what you want the system to act like. You are realtor GPT. Your job is to help realtors write amazing property descriptions. It's a great task description. GPT then knows when I'm answering, I'm going to answer from this domain. So all that information that has and now has a filter for that information. Does that make sense? Yeah. Then you have the input indicator and that just means. So this is who you are. Now, how are you going to be talked to? It might be a question. You might ask it for a form letter. You might ask it help writing an email. Right? So you a lot of people ask it to write the email, but they won't say how. Like when you and I were talking earlier, it was like, Hey, write it simpler. Like you can do all that up front and actually say.  And then the last and then you've got the current input. We're going to do all this in our table. Say, so this is going to be exciting because you're going to see us do all parts of these. And the last one is the output. And that's like when you answer the question, make it look like this. So when I do mine, I literally tell it bold this, send me at least three paragraphs, put paragraphs break in there. You know what I mean? So most people don't really understand that the prompt engineering is really so much bigger than like knowing how to talk to it. It's knowing how to micro train it. And you don't have to get overwhelmed because unlike childs and dogs, it just goes and goes and goes. So you can keep practicing and just never let it teach you how to talk. All right. With that, I've done three of these projects, one for my house, one for my village, one for my county. And I'm right in the middle of a new one for my county, where we're putting a front end on all of the county. But before we get into that and get into air table, you want to get in and just look at some of the simple things you can do and just chat GPT connected to the air table. Now, did you want to share anything? Or do you want me just to jump in and share some stuff? I'll let you drive the seat. All right. So I'm going to go ahead and share my GPT window. And there's a lot of fun stuff in there. So for you, those of you with pension zoom, this is your place to thrive. So I think some of my best practices and take this with a grain of salt is I have a different shot for everything I'm doing. I don't want to just have one that I keep running because once you train it, so if I come down here to some of my earliest ones, you see this one on technique, magic, and ritual. Once I train it, if I go all the way to the top and I tell it, if we scroll here a little faster, so you can see how I trained it in the very, very beginning, create a chance to summon a goddess. And then it creates a goddess for me. Then I tell her who is technique and it tells me it is technique. So I spent a good maybe five, 10 minutes just training this to become a digital goddess that would answer my questions day to day. Why I keep the same chat is because if I ever want to talk to the goddess again, I'm not going to open up a new chat because I have to redo all the training. So pro tip number one is if you're working on a website or a customer project or you want to create like a therapy bot, stay in the same chat. Don't create, don't create.  This is how I talk to her. So I put in hundreds of pages of my mom's letters to me over the years and I now have a bot for her that probably creeped out anybody watching. So first tip, stay in the same chat. So now let's go ahead that we know that because you're like, okay, why don't you have all these chat chats? It's because each one kind of does something different. If you want to create a new chat, you just come in here and we're going to have a brand new one. First thing you're going to see when you get into chat GBT depending on what plan you have, you'll see a bunch of different models. Now models are just different builds kind of like Microsoft Office 97 versus Office 2000. So this is a default GBT, which is the fastest newest one. Most people get legacy, which is a little bit slower. And if you click on these, you'll see they actually show you that their ability to understand and do things is different. So their reasoning, their speed, and their consciousness is layered. By default, most people on the free planner have three five and it's super fast. So we're just going to start there. And we're just going to do a simple training and we're going to say you are website assistant GPT and you can misspell all you want and it does a great job knowing what you want. You are going to help me build a database and website for a new company called Lisa Realty. Lisa Realty focuses on helping agents create listings, education, find education resources, and balance work life. So it's going to take that. So again, I didn't start with write me an email.  Right. I just had an idea. We didn't talk about this, right? I just kind of said it. So the first thing it does is it creates a business plan for me and tells me kind of what we should do for purpose and goal. So the goal of the website is to get people to sign up and pay for my monthly listings class and use the resources for membership. Okay. So it's given me a lot more. And I don't get overwhelmed by this because we just need to stay simple. Can you create a name for the website and a short tagline? Very neat. So right away we have our website name. We have some tagline so we know good. I like agent hub. Let's go with that. Because I will have, I'm sorry, what three pages do I need to start with for agent hub? That gives me my three pages, my class page, my membership portal, and my home page. We actually could build those like something we literally can now jump over. We're going to get there in a second. That's amazing. Thank you. Okay, pro tip. Always thank the AI. So next I'm going to do is building an air table database to host this website behind. What tables would map for the website and what fields should be in the database? That's fantastic. It's basically your database engineer. Can you create those tables in CSV format and you just import these in their table? And it's creating your education resources. That's great. So does that kind of make sense at a high level on like treat GPT each chat as a project? Define it from the start, like who you are and what you're doing. If you've got lots of chats, just start over. Start a new one, but stay in that same chat. Because now as we keep asking this question, so I was going to go back to the name, the structure of the site, the database structure, and it's going to keep evolving those things. Yeah, so what are you thinking? Yeah, no, that's great. I never thought about organizing my chats, because no one ever taught me to structure it and organize it. So I just have one big chat window. So I've got a bunch of mess all in one big chat. And so it's probably getting... And I share it with multiple people in my team. So if my assistant's putting in something that's completely irrelevant to who I am as a person, our voices get mixed up all the time. So thank you. This is like the number one takeaway if I don't remember anything else. Just the organizing of the chats is amazing. Yeah, and I always remember that when you have a chat, it's remembering. You've got one big chat with everything in it. I mean, it can do it, but it constantly will not stay in voice and on purpose. Yeah. Right? So like you could write a letter in Microsoft Excel, but you're kind of getting better response out of Microsoft Word, right? I don't even pull a Clippy reference out now. So that's kind of chat GPT if you're just using it to help you with your business. And of course, if you... I'm sure everyone knows this because everybody talks about it. But we could come in here and tell it, write an email to... Write an email. Write email. Write email copy. Introducing the new service. This is how most people use it. They'll tell it to write an email. But because I've already done all the work, it now can write the copy without me telling it a bunch. Create five tweets about the new service. Love it. Create three Instagram ideas about the service. So again, because we used one chat, we're keeping the one project in there now, everything from emails to the sort of stuff we can do. So now let's take it about... Let's talk about integrating now with Airtable. So at the first integration level, we've already seen that it will create a table structure. It will create sample... Well, it gave us some sample data, but you could actually have it create more sample data. I love stuff like I need a sample... Sample data with dates for two weeks starting May 1st, 2023, with the sunrise and sunset for Amsterdam, New York. Because maybe I want to be able to have the best times to show a house like right at sunset when it's getting the best look. So I'm going to just kind of create some sample data for me. So when people book appointments, I only make times in those windows open to see the house. And it created the appointment booking times for that. Does that make sense? Brilliant, yeah. Okay. I don't want to go too fast, but again, so we've got... Think of an Airtable or think of a business. Now think of a website. Now build the Airtable. Now create some content in the Airtable.  And we did all of that in five minutes, 10 minutes. Wow, that's amazing. So now let's make it actionable. So there are a lot of ways you can use this content in your Airtable. Obviously, you can come in here and paste it into your Airtable. You can import a CSV. If you've watched this video, hopefully you know a little bit about Airtable. But one of my favorite things to do with this content nowadays is to really think about how people can take... How can I give these skills to a stranger on my site? And what I mean by that is I want anyone to be able to ask my business or me information about my services. So almost like a chat bot, but almost I call it the advocate or bot. So in this case, I have an Airtable here called Montgomery County GPT. That's where I live. And I have a table called advocate. And what I do is I collect people's names, their email addresses, a focus, something about that focus, a language, and an output. So let's talk about what all this means. So I could come in here and I want you to watch as I... I want you to watch this last A... I'm sorry, I want you to watch this AI input section. So I'm going to come in here and say I'm Chris Dancy. Chris.dancey at gmail.com. I need help with learning about history. I am moving to the area and I am Hispanic. And I want to learn about your Hispanic heritage. I can't see behind my... Sorry, I'm looking down at my market here. Heritage with the county. So you'll notice that I typed that and when I did it filled out a bunch of stuff over here. Yeah. All right. So if you've used Airtable, you probably already know all I'm doing is I have a concatenate field where I have in a sentence around the information I'm putting in. This is super, super important. This is like the dream video. This makes... Hopefully this is going to make AI simpler than anyone's ever realized it. Because what you're doing now is if you remember when we were talking about our prompt engineering, we are creating our input. Wow. Does that make sense? Yeah. Yeah. Now that we're creating that input, ChatGPT knows to do something with it. All right. So it's like super, super simple.  And we're going to go about like, how do we get this in ChatGPT now? Do we want people to use our Airtable? No. You could fill out a form. So someone could come in here and they could very quickly put a form on the front of this. And then that form, they could fill it out. But let's be honest, the forms aren't very pretty. Yeah. It does look very good. So let's not do a form. It'd be easier, I think, if we had maybe a really simple, pretty form builder. So one I've been using lately is something called Fillout. So Fillout has a free program. I'd use Typeform forever because I think it's really gorgeous. I used JotForm. I used them all, but they have a free program that works just as good. So I'm going to go into Fillout and I'm going to go into my Montgomery County GPT. And right away, it allows you to create pages. So you'll see down here at the bottom, create a page and ask you what type of page you want to create. Either a welcome page where it just has a big welcome sign or it has a form page where you collect the forms. And what's really amazing about this tool is it's so easy. You've got all of your Airtable fields right in here. So if I were to add a new field to this program, what if I were to come in here and create a field called RUACitizen of Montgomery and just put a yes or no and save that. Now I want to come over to Fillout. Fillout's really fast. So if I tell it to refresh, it'll go out, sync with the database and pull that field in and I can just drop it right on there. So now I have another attribute. I can pass through to the input field. This person is a citizen. This person is not a citizen. Maybe for non-citizens, we want to encourage them to invite them to visit. And we'll get into that in a minute, but we just want to understand the basics because I think Fillout for me is one of these great tools because what it does is it instantly allows you to put a website on your Airtable and your GPT integration because here's a website. It looks gorgeous. I come in here. I say, I'm Chris Dancy. Chris at christency.com. You ask them for their email. You ask them what they're doing. I'm planning a trip. I'm coming in the fall and I need to know some things to do for a three-day trip. Also, can you plan three days in the area for me and my family through two kids? I'd like the answer sent back to me in English and hit send. So that's going to go into the database. You'll see it's here. Came in from the forum. It's right there already. I'm coming in the... Is this the right one? 422. Oh, not going to go down. It's probably at the bottom. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm right here. I'm coming in the fall. Now, if we go over to the automations, you will see in the run history, see here it's in progress. Hmm. So we're going to go into the script in a minute and we're going to look at what this is. But right now it's sending that input up to ChatGPT. Once ChatGP gets the input, it's going to take any prompting I told it, think like this, return answers like that, and send me back an answer. So the answer, obviously, we've just got this great form that we're collecting out there. There's no answer out of that form. And it didn't run. So I'll have to go see where it failed. Oh, it took too long. Yeah. I just, yeah. Sometimes you have to increase the length of time on it. So let me go back here for a second. And I'll go ahead and do my form, ask again. And you can increase your buffer time depending on how verbose you are. Some people are super verbose. When I create the really simple ones, I usually not that verbose planning trip. I'm coming from the fall, help me with activities for my family. English, send. Come back over here, run in our automations. So this automations run again. So let's talk about this automation is doing while it's running. So the first thing it's doing is something really simple. It's just when a record's created. So when a record's created on our table, which was our advocate table, it's just going to do something, right? So it's saying when a record's created, what do you want to do? So the next thing it's doing is going to run a script. This is where you're going to come in, you're going to copy, I have a temporary chat GTP key in here. You want to pick your key, put that in.  So how do you want to think? So in this case, I'm saying, you are Montgomery County, New York Government, artificial agent support bot. You help citizens do four things, plan trips, and notice how it kind of matches the form, even though you don't need to do that specifically. And then how to do it. And then it's going to take that and then run it against the actual script itself. So the script is something you can, there's a couple of different scripts on the Airtable Community Forms. You can read it to me and I'll send you my script. But all it's doing is it's coming through and it's pulling in some variables, like your key, how you want it to think, temperature presence penalty, prompt and model, just use the defaults. You can do other things, but that gets, sometimes can be a little, it can be a little bit much, if you know what I mean. And then from there, it's going to update the record. So if we go out and look at our base, we can see here that had my AI input, then it wrote the letter back. Wow. So now if I go up to my email, the second step of that is sending the customer, the information. So if you're a realtor saying, I need to create a listing and you could fill out a form and say, tell me about the house. Yep. A big form for that. It would just create an amazing listing. So a realtor could sell this as a service to new realtors or legally someone's thinking about moving to this town. Tell me about that town and you can have a list of towns. Tell me about that town's HOA is competence and rules. It would send the user those types of things. Right. That would be such a time saver. Right. So, you know, the idea is like, how do we make, I'm going to go back to what I was saying before, how do we take an air table that your whole business is running on? You just have this last tab here. That's not your business. It's what we would call your support and you make that actionable by putting a nice front end on it that people can use. And what I tell people all the time is you can charge for this. Put this behind a login. Right. And then people who pay you five hours or 10 hours a month can come in, use chat Jpt because they don't need to do it. But they're using it through your business. So this comes to the big part. Right. So like, what's the value prop? Like what's stopping everybody from doing this? Why wouldn't Lisa? Well, I think everybody will do it. But like, what's Lisa's value prop? Well, Lisa knows the business. She knows how to work with agents. She understands kind of what their struggles are. The value of AI is not AI. It's the prompt. Yeah. And if you know Airtable and you have a special skill like Lisa with reality or me with, I don't know, I like lots of things. You could build a forum to collect the information, create an amazing prompt and send back the most amazing information. Does that make sense the way I'm explaining it? Yeah. That is a fantastic breakdown workflow. And I never dream that that all could work together in one space. So yeah, I agree. I think small business owners especially consultants and people who have a specialty right should be doing this all day long, right? Like funnels was the thing in the past, right? And connecting that to multiple different integrations. And that's what literally people pay me to consult all day long. Like how do I do all these things? Now you simple applied it, especially in this no code community to just these few tools and you can run everything on this. So yeah. And that's what I just that's what I think is so empowering by this because like at this at this level, it's just amazing. I'll show you a customer I'm working with currently. So she's an event planner and we launched a new service for her company. And she has a community of thousands of people. But she wanted to create a database of other event organizers of service providers for event venues and then for venues themselves. And she wanted anyone to be able to get listed like, hey, have your event at my house or hey, hire me to do balloons or speaking or hey, I want to be listed as an organizer. But what she did was she made levels that people could pay. So this was our preview for prototype site. So there's a free level where you can get just get listed or there's a paid level where you can come in here and be listed as pro. And what happens is if you're part of our network, your your listing is really robust. You have a button where you can get paid instantly for your time. Super simple. I'm going to continue to go there. Sorry. And you can pay Caitlyn to book time with her. Let me go back to pop event. But more importantly, you can log into her site.  Let me go ahead and log in as one of our members. You can and this is using Pory. Remember Caitlyn's password. Shoot. I sort of change it so that I don't like getting into other people's information. I'm so weird about that. So what's really cool is you can get in. So I log in with another user. And you can update your table record. But more importantly, because you're in now as a paid member, you can actually come in here, review any of those organizations or you have access to AI support, which basically walks you through helping you plan an event using pop events with all of her prompts that we put in her system. That's great. Yes. It became just a really great way to like say, how do I take a business she's already doing successful with and then monetize it to another level to get value from all the people she's connected to, but also create a way that it kind of feeds back on itself. And again, when these people are telling us how they're thinking, they're actually training future versions of the system. Yeah. No, that's fantastic. I love that. I network with a lot of people, agent directories, and they have all specialties and stuff. So I'm always networking, connecting people. And this is a great way. I could have a membership site and say, hey, you get access to the best of the best and I can vouch for them and things like that. So that's fantastic. Thank you. Yeah, it's been a lot of fun for me because I think once I learned kind of the basics of like, okay, air table is kind of the prompt and the input and everything because you're just using that concatenate field. But like really then it comes like, okay, I can take people with any specialty and get them to create and like what questions would you ask someone? Yeah. And then, you know, you saw it in the script. I said, you are Montgomery County GPT answer this way. Right. So now I'm even telling how to answer back. And I think what's what's really empowering about this is there really isn't no matter what your specialty is, if you know air table and you practice a little bit with chat GPT, you can do amazing things. Last week I created something called The Advocator. We had about a half a million people visit. The Advocator helps people with just Advocator.ai but it helps with social issues. So Black Lives, Trans Lives, Asian Lives, LGBTQ, Health Issues, COVID HIV, Health Equity and then support Neurodiversity. But what's really cool about this is it's your story plus AI. So you come in, you click the advocate button, you fill out the form and it sends you back a letter that will advocate for you or your family for the things you need to send to a company or an individual that might not understand because a lot of people find it hard to write the words. But The Advocator was specially trained to advocate around these specific issues. So if you come into The Advocator, it just asks you what are you advocating for? And this will all start to look really familiar to you. So I'm advocating for Health Equity and who do you want to advocate with? I'll say St. Mary's Hospital. You want it to tweet so it'll actually tweet out for you, your application. And I can put in my Twitter handle yeah.  And what's really amazing about the how you want your answer back is a lot of people, we always assume everybody is a native English speaker. Well, because we're doing CatGBT, it can answer in any question. Help me explain my need to have masks in hospital or my child who is immunocompromised. And I'll say give this back to me in Spanish. The advocate will run and then what it'll do is it'll send us back an answer and that email in Spanish. That's great. Yeah, I mean, it's a lot of the brain work out in the content writing and you're right, you know, you're basically having a website portal that you can go in and just, you know, type in a natural language our day to day and it'll spit out the prompts for you without having to think of the props and going to ChatGBT to do that. That's fantastic.  Everyone's been doing, you know, maybe that's all new for some people watching this video. But we've then said, now monetize around what I know by creating my last table where I can ask people for what I can help them with and then I don't intervene because I've already done the help by knowing what questions to ask, how to tell ChatGBT to think you are this GPT and send the answer back like that. And in that way, you only add on to your services from then forward. So if you wanted to add on another agent service that does, you know, you know, find communities, you know, I'm looking for a house or, you know, something I think is going to be really important. I don't know why more agents are doing this is climate relocation specialists. So people who want to have a house in a specific part of the country, you know, maybe you've got some requirements. GPT is great for that. Wow. Yeah, I didn't think about it. We have a lot of people relocating to Denver, just because they love the outdoor space. And then when they retire, they love to go to Florida. So we're a little bit more tropical, right? Right. Yeah, the balance. Yeah. So that's that's a fantastic idea. I would definitely start prompting my air table to get those outputs. So anything else you can think of? I don't want to leave you too high and dry, but I know when we originally talked, you're like, I would love to do a video where you explain some of this, but I also know I go super fast. No, I mean, that's a great breakdown. I think just getting in there and just learning the day to day and just building all of this, right? So I think my challenge is always I'm repeating the same information, knowledge over and over again to like hundreds of agents, right? So at the end of the day, I'm just so fried because all my knowledge is just out there. I have to think about it on a one-on-one capacity, but this is great. I can store all my knowledge based in one place and air table, have it prompt out, and then depending on where they are, location-wise or what they're looking for, it just spits out the specialty. So I no longer have to spend all these hours on support and things by basically by poring my website. I can do that all for it. So I love that it's no code too. One of the things I love about this is you can take your same, remember we created the advocate table where it actually comes back and tells you, like, you know, people can ask questions or we had that one for Montgomery County. One of the things that people don't even, you know, really consider is like, you could then come in and create a really simple new field that's not part of the AI, just called category. And we'll make this a single select and we could put, you know, travel, I'm sorry, travel, business, et cetera. And then as these questions come in, you could then publish these questions as an FAQ by creating another field that uses a trim and removes the personalized information. That is amazing. And just publish that to... Exactly, right. Exactly. So you could have AI bring the information back, like the public information in your script, you could say, drop it in this field, but you could say, you know, bring back just the core information and drop it in another field. So it's really about doing everything we love with their table and fields and saying, okay, we have a base understanding of AI and air table. We know how to put these things together. We know how to put them out. And then from there, you start building these bigger and bigger solutions. Wow, fantastic. My goodness, I've learned so much in this short amount of time that we spent together, but... I really appreciate you asking to do this because I know for me, I get overwhelmed. Like, I don't want to be on camera and I feel so dumb trying to explain myself and... No, not at all. I think more people can really benefit from this. You've done an amazing job with our Facebook community, right? Like even better than air table support, I hate to say that. But, you know, it's been great. I've learned so much, right? And just the ability to do things, right? Like, people just don't have time to research or put it all together, right? Like, the logic doesn't click sometimes, right? And you just need to see how it can work in action, the things that we can dream of. So I love your dreaming sessions. I love to continue, you know, having these kind of sessions, but definitely I think the community can definitely, you know, benefit from this. So keep creating content. I'm so bad at it. Ben is my inspiration for content. He brings this dog into it. Like, my dog is too... Well, my little dog's not too big to bring up, but I don't think she is. Where can people find you, at least if they're having questions about real estate or any of your businesses or just want to work with you? Yeah, so I'm still putting out my website. Obviously we'll do that afterwards, but it's right now, FUB. So FUB stands for follow boss.simplyclosed.house. My other website is simplyclosed.com, but still working. I'm building out both of them, but you can find me on any of those. Plus, you're also in the group, if anyone's in... Who's part of watching this video is in our Facebook group. I'll put a link to the Facebook group in this video. Thank you so much.  Lisa booked this time with me, but I was like 30 minutes late, so I apologize and throw yourself on the knife of public shame in front of everyone. Say I apologize. I apologize myself. I'm being on time and I couldn't today. You're good. You're good. I appreciate it. You know, what you took, like I said, just in these few minutes together, like I've learned, you know, I feel like weeks and months of things that I could have taken forever to learn. So I appreciate you taking out the time. And you know, if you haven't signed up yet, definitely go to their table. I will be there as my first one. I'm super excited, super pumped for it. So can't wait to see what their table and the rest of the community does. They do amazing things. We've got like four or five sessions now on AI. It's going to be so good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can probably teach my session. Okay. Well, thank you, Lisa. I'll chat with you later. Thank you everybody for coming. Thank you, everyone.


Well, moving on now, the House Committee on Finance is front at what it described as unfortunately the negligence displayed by the Office of the Accountants General of the Federation and most of the Ministry and the governmental agencies over some discrepancies noticed in the 2021 remittances for the federal government account. The committee made this observation on day two of the ongoing probe into the activities of MDAs where the Accountants General's Office in two agencies, the Energy Commission and the oil spill detection and response agencies, presented conflicting figures to the committee. The committee which was led by its deputy, Sider of the Life from Niger State, blamed the agencies for encouraging gross misappropriation in government and directed them to reconcile all remittances with Accountants General's Office and reappear before the committee with documents relating to every transaction from 2021. The reality is no one will come from anywhere to make this country work for us. We will make it work by ourselves and this is the way we're going to make it work. It's by talking to ourselves and ensuring that the writing is done at all spheres of a government. So, Director of Finance, you've had some of the valid points that have been raised. What we have seen from your submission is that in most cases you have spent what you even have in the commission. You have spent, where you have 2.4 million, 2.4 billion, rather, you spent 2.42 billion. You spent 2.46. I don't think in terms of, how do you even manage a deficit? For 2021, we have the treasured receipt issued to Energy Commission that backed our 100% remittances. Our record is 13 million. We have the 12 million from Tender Fish. We have auction. We've generated 553. And then we have refunds, which is 183 million. The total is 13 million, 627,600. In direct calls, they have 27 million. Where should I go? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Office of the Contrigeneral. What's the source of the additional influx?


Therefore, it's time for members of statements, the member from Nipissing. Thank you, Speaker, and good afternoon. The problem of access to broadband connectivity is a key concern in my writing of Nipissing and across Northern and rural Ontario. The Council, in the municipality of Callender, is seeking provincial action on this important issue. They note in a recent resolution, which they sent to me, that availability of broadband that is on par with larger urban areas in Canada is essential for Northern Ontario to achieve economic viability and social well-being. They also note the cost of providing the required service is unaffordable without provincial and federal help. They're requesting the provincial government work with the federal government and advocate for a target broadband service. They are asking for 50 megabytes per second download and 10 megabytes per second uploaded for Northern Ontario consistent with CRTC recommendations. Speaker, proper broadband access can be a great economic equalizer for Northern Ontario, and that's why it's in our parties' policy proposals being voted on in the near future. This needs to be a priority for the provincial government. And I thank you, Speaker. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for the member statements. The member from Welland. Thank you, Speaker. Physiotherapy was delisted by the Liberal government in 2013 with new criteria for who would qualify for the government-funded physio. I have an 80-year-old man in Welland who is on a two-year waitlist for Parkinson's rehab program. It would help him to maintain his mobility, otherwise his condition deteriorates. $45 a treatment privately for for-profit physio. Why the waitlist? Because this program, through the Hotel Jew Shaver Health and Rehab Center, operates solely on the basis of private donations from the Steve Ludzik Foundation to cover the operating expenses as well as staff. That means the annual budget of only $150,000 determines the number of participants. They're doing a great job. 220 people have been helped since 2013. Steve has had a successful career in the NHL and was 39 when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's. It quickly became his goal to start a rehab clinic to help individuals like himself deal with the symptoms. I'm asking the Minister of Health to ask the local health integration network for Niagara to work with the Steve Ludzik Foundation and the Hotel Jew Shaver CEO Jane Refrano to look at additional funding for the Parkinson's rehab program. Just doubling what the Steve Ludzik Foundation provides each year would go a long way to shortening that two-year waiting list. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Thank you, Mr. Member. Statement of the Member from Barrie. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Tomorrow afternoon I have the honour of hosting the Canadian Cancer Survivor Network reception here at Queen's Park for the fourth year. As a survivor myself, I would have appreciated having access to this wonderful resource when I was going through the treatments. The CCSN works to empower collaborative action by cancer patients, families and communities to remove barriers to optimal care. They promote health by providing individuals living with cancer and their caregivers with access to related counseling, information and support programs. This year they are bringing awareness to cancer-associated thrombosis. Roughly 20% of the 200,000 Canadians diagnosed with cancer this year will develop blood clots during their course of treatment and approximately 2,300 die as a result every year. Unfortunately, far too few cancer patients are aware of secondary complications such as these. I myself was not made aware of this when I was going through cancer. Many mistake symptoms of thrombosis as being normal side effects of cancer treatment and do not seek out early life-saving intervention. Bringing awareness to these little-known aspects of cancer is an example of the important work done by the Survivor Network. Please join me in congratulating the Canadian Cancer Survivor Network for all that the great work that they do, and I invite you all to come by their lunchtime reception tomorrow in room 228. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you to the member students, the member from Farzell. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, and I'm so pleased to rise and talk about another great family from my riding of Thornhill. We've got the Zarukov family here, Elise is the mom and the daughters Jenna and Jordan. They're here to help us participate with Lymphoma Canada, Cancerity and the Canadian Cancer Society because they're doing Lymphoma Advocacy Day today at Queen's Park and later on in the afternoon everybody's invited to their hockey themed reception here in the building. They had a fantastic, they called it a night to remember Stuart Zarukov. It's the dad who passed away from Lymphoma 10 years ago on October 22nd, 2017. They was at the Riviera Park Banquet Hall and a friend of the dad, Stuart Richard Soror, spoke about him. They had pictures on the wall projected. There was an Elvis impersonator, Brent Freeman, DJ Magic Moments in style activities, J Sticks on the drums, and Double Chocolate helped sponsor as well. And it was just wonderful to see all their friends and family all dressed up, dancing and enjoying altogether a wonderful meal, a wonderful silent auction. In fact, I purchased a Zach Hyman hockey jersey from the Maple Leafs to wear at the hockey theme reception later on today, and the Zarukovs are here today in the members' gallery and they'll be there at the reception so that everybody can come over and ask them about all their fantastic fundraising that they're doing for Lymphoma Canada. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Thank you very much. Tragically in Ontario today, one in three girls and one in five boys would be sexually abused before they reach adulthood. These children have lost trust in the people who are responsible for their safety. They are vulnerable and fragile. Investigations into physical and sexual abuse are intimidating and traumatising for children and youth and support services have long been fragmented and difficult to navigate. In Kitchener Waterloo, the Waterloo Region Child Witness Centre recently launched their Child and Youth Advocacy Centre. The centre provides a safe space for children who have been abused, offering them support through these traumatic investigations. With their streamlined investigative approach, the centre also offers much-needed and less traumatic alternative traditional investigations. Children are supported by specially trained professionals in a comforting and child-friendly space. They have to share their stories with fewer people and are given access to the services they need to begin the healing process. Waterloo Region's Child and Youth Advocacy Centre is a collaboration between the Child Witness Centre, Waterloo Region Police, Family and Children Services, the Crown Attorney, Luther Wood and the Sexual Assault in Domestic Violence Treatment Centre at St. Mary's Hospital. Unfortunately, the centre has not received any funding from the Government of Ontario. Instead, this vital service for vulnerable children and youth is being funded through the Child Witness Centre's Safe Hands, Strong Futures campaign with a $2 million fundraising goal. Thank you to the whole team at Waterloo Region Child Witness Centre and the Children and Youth Advocacy Centre for the difficult but necessary work that you do for children, youth and their families. This is such an important issue. We need to find it. Thank you. The Member of State is the Member from Kitchener Centre. Thank you, Speaker. Earlier this week, I had the opportunity with our Premier Kathleen Nguyen and the Mayor of Kitchener Barry Verbanovich to sit down with members of the Rohingya Muslim Community and Kitchener. There are about 40 people who are at this meeting. We gathered to hear their concerns regarding tragic events now unfolding in Myanmar. The words being used to describe the situation are genocide and ethnic cleansing. In the past couple of months, 600,000 Rohingya have fled Myanmar to neighbouring Bangladesh to escape persecution. We heard disturbing firsthand accounts of how the Rohingya are facing gross violations of human rights. We heard from women, men and youth who pleaded with us to step up and take action. And Speaker, I'm pleased to tell you that we are taking action. Today, our Premier just announced that Ontario is directing $1 million to two organisations — $500,000 to the Canadian Red Cross to promote shelter, food, water, hygiene, sanitation and prevention against gender-based violence, and $500,000 to MedSens Sans Frontières for medical aid, emergency sanitation and mental health services. We're also very supportive of the federal government's commitment of $12 million in humanitarian aid, and we applaud the appointment of the Honourable Bob Ray to act a special envoy to Myanmar. Speaker, when people in crisis need help, there are no boundaries. Ontarians will heed this call and step up. Thank you for the member from Dufferin, Caledon. Thanks, Speaker. I rise today to celebrate the life of a Caledon grape, Susan Grange. Sue made her name as one of the premier breeders of show-jumping and racehorses in Canada and was known for being a hands-on and hard-working breeder and owner. In 1975, Sue and her husband, John, bought Laugh Lorne Farms in Caledon and transformed it into a world-class training centre. Their hard work has left an amazing legacy in the equestrian community, not only in Caledon but across Canada and the world. Canadian Olympic show-jumper Ian Miller has ridden many of Sue's horses, including in style, the horse with which he won a silver medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Many other notable riders include Caledon's own Olympian Jan Kandelie and Irishman Conor Swale. Sue's hard work has been recognised on many occasions. She has won Jump Canada's Owner of the Year award in both 2005 and 2008. The accolades and successes of the horse breeds owned by Sue is almost endless. On behalf of Dufferin, Caledon and the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, I want to offer my condolences to the Grange family.  Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am thrilled to rise today in celebration of the 94th anniversary of the Turkish Republic Day. On October 29, 1923, the newly recognised Turkish Parliament proclaimed the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, formally marking the end of the Ottoman Empire. On the same day, Mustafa Kamal was unanimously elected as the first President of the Republic. This week, communities from around the world are coming together from coast to coast to celebrate Turkish heritage and the many accomplishments of its people. Today I rise not just in celebration of the Turkish independence, but more importantly to recognise the contributions of Turkish Canadians. Turkey and Canada have a long-standing relationship with one another. To date, Canada welcomes a vibrant community of nearly 60,000 Turkish Canadians, thousands of whom chose our province of Ontario as their new home. Their impact runs deep and widespread, and you can see it in art shows exhibiting some talented artists, you can hear it in the sounds and rhythm of Turkish musicians, and the Turkish food is not too far behind in many restaurants around the city. From the economy, academics and across every aspect of life, Turkish Canadians will no doubt continue to enrich our vibrant multicultural fabric and history. I would like to extend my warm thanks to all of those who came to the Turkish flag raising on Monday. Happy birthday, the National Republic of Turkey. Doğum günün kutlu olsum, çoğut teşikuridir, mersimukum igüç. Thank you. Members, statements? The member from Kitchener? Yes, thank you, Speaker. They say the key to quality childcare is the childcare worker and early childhood educator. And the fact is, Speaker, while they are the key and while caring for and educating infants, toddlers and preschoolers requires knowledge and skills. As complex as teaching older children, it pays much less. We have so many great childcare providers in our region. Of course, Al Childcare, Pluto Daycare, Sunny Daycare, Creative Beginning, Sweet Pee Early Years, Tadpole Daycare, and of course YWCA Childcare, and I have to mention Linda and the great folks over at the JWGIRTH Childcare Center. They don't vote themselves to the care and education of children right across the region. I also think of Erin Flynn, who spends her days looking after and caring for my three infant children, which I can tell you from experience is very rewarding, but not an easy task. As our providers brace to meet the goals and focus of the government's pay equity direction, there are serious questions being asked about where the government's direction is on supporting providers to achieve that equity. The fact is, Speaker, childcare fees are already unaffordable for most families, often more than rent or a mortgage payment. Meanwhile, costs continue to rise for childcare operators due to the impact of regulatory changes. As they say, the government can't have their cake and eat it too. They can't demand pay equity for educators and expect lower childcare fees without coming to the table. Speaker, today I stand for the underpaid ECE and childcare providers who do amazing work despite the lack of recognition. On behalf of parents like myself across our province, we owe our thanks for you keeping our children safe and providing quality learning atmosphere. Thank you so much. I thank all members for their statements. It's therefore time for reports by committees.

For video streaming, gaming, social media, plus smart home devices, and security systems standard high-speed or cellular internet is just too slow, but broadband keeps your home connected. Call or visit Gearhart Broadband online. With in-person classes starting for Floyd County Schools on September 28th, the school district is putting student health and safety to the forefront by means of a temperature kiosk. Hi Jeremy, welcome to the Floyd County Board of Education. Before you're allowed into our building, we need to take your temperature with our kiosk. Is that okay? Yeah, it's okay. Just step up. Align yourself with the silhouette inside the kiosk. Your temperature is normal, Jeremy. Temperature is normal. 97.0 degrees. Thank you very much. We knew that we were going to have to really step up our game in order to keep our kids safe and to be able to take temperatures and make sure that we could get kids in the school in a quick manner so that we didn't have all the kids standing in line and bottlenecked outside because our kids' safety is our number one priority. What we're going to do is we'll use them in the schools. The kids come in and the staff and any adult that enters our school will be required to use the kiosk or have their temperature taken with an infrared thermometer. The kids will stand in front of the kiosk. They line themselves up with a silhouette inside the kiosk and the kiosk takes their temperature. At least one kiosk will be placed within each Floyd County School before the start of in-person classes on September 28th. An additional kiosk will be installed in larger schools with a higher population of students. If their temperature alerts us and it turns red on the kiosk then we know that that child possibly has a temperature. So one of my health assistants or one of the nurses inside the school will take the child aside. We will check the temperature again to verify that that is their temperature and if the parents are still there we're going to send the child home with their parents with a recommendation that they take them to their primary physician or to in a hospital to the emergency room. Annette says that their goal is to keep students healthy and in school and with all the safety precautions they have in place the district is excited to have students back in class on September 28th. You know we put everything that we can in place to make sure that the children are safe that we can monitor them for temperatures and for illness. We've got two nurse practitioners and we've added telehealth to one of our schools and we're looking at a prospect of adding some additional telehealth sites so that when the parents send their child to school or send them through the door they know that we have done everything that we can to make sure that their child is safe during the day. Reporting from the Floyd County Board of Education, I'm Jeremy Justice with Mountaintop News.
