Okay. So, AI stack, one of the things

that I've noticed has become quite is

becoming more and more kind of

ubiquitous in the space is this idea of

an AI assistant that is not your phone,

but something that you can kind of call

when you need to remember something,

when you need to take notes, when you

you know, and Tim, I was wearing that

that little pendant when you and I got

together.

>> Hate it. Hate it.

>> It's always recording. And Tim Tim goes

to me, he's like, "Is that always

recording?" I was like, "Yeah." And he

goes, "Yeah, I I hate to ask you this,

but can you just take it off? It's too

much anxiety for me." [laughter] So, I

had to take off that pendant and put it

in my bag. But I agree with you in that

it is weird. It does our

conversations in our honesty when you

know there's something that's there

listening all the time, right?

>> Yeah. 100%.

>> And so, a couple things. Nothing. The

Android phone company, I'm not an

investor or anything like that. They

make headphones, which I'm wearing right

now for this podcast. And but one of the

things that was really cool is just like

when they released this headphones a

month ago, they have a little talk

button on the headphones. And so if you

hold down talk as you're holding your

headphones case, I can record anything

and it goes into their AI and it creates

to-do lists for me, not whatever it may

be. It's just fun.

>> That's a cool feature.

>> There's a company called Sandbar and we

invested true. It wasn't my deal.

>> Quick question. Do you need to have an

Android phone to use those?

>> Yes, you need to have a nothing phone.

Okay.

>> And so that's the problem. But the idea

is sound and that it's not always on.

It's just when you need it, right?

>> Y.

>> And one of the things that Sandbar did,

and I have one of their prototype rings

around here somewhere, but one of the

things that Sandbar did is they created

a ring almost like an aura ring where if

you just lightly touch it, you can

whisper to any notes you might want and

it saves it in the AI cloud on your

phone, Android OS, whatever. And if you

have headphones in, it'll respond back

to you. So you be like, "Hey, remind me

what's that meeting I have tomorrow?"

just like quietly. It doesn't listen to

the entire room and then it gives you

that data back in your headphones.

>> Anyway, Sandbar is not out yet. It's

coming out middle of next year.

>> Highly recommend sandbar.com checking

out. Like I said, it is something that

we invested at the fund level, but it's

not my deal. But I will say I like where

this is going. Even if it's not Sandbar,

something like this that is a little

companion that is not your big ass phone

that can be engaged with when you want

to, you know, jot something down is

quite cool. Outside of that, I would

say, you know, AI on the notion front

has been quite good. The agents that

they've added inside of notion are

phenomenal and that continues to get

better. What do you use that for? How do

you use that?

>> Notion just added notetaking now. So, if

you're in a Zoom or any type of video

call, it will automatically prompt you

to record the entire thing. And so, by

default, I always say to people, hey,

I'm just, you know, notion's not

actually recording the audio, but they

are transcribing it. and they put the

meeting notes and the bullet points into

my notion for me and then I can ask

questions of that transcript later on.

So, call it like a week or two later.

I'm like, "Hey, Tim mentioned some

really cool book by Anthony Dlo. Which

one was it?" And it would boom, right

there. It's like within two seconds.

>> Yeah,

>> that's really cool. And then you can ask

questions of your entire corpus of data.

So, if you're storing a bunch of stuff

in there, like I had my EIN number for

one of my LLC's and I was like, "Hey,

what's the EIN number for this LLC?"

It's like 2 seconds later, it's out.

Right. Yeah. So that's fun.

>> When do you think Gemini built into G

Suite will be good enough to do that for

an inbox?

>> It is now. It is now.

>> Is it?

>> Yeah, it is.

>> Okay. Cuz it was so disappointing as of

even a few weeks ago. I just enabled it

this kind of like deeper integration

which I I don't know if I'm a beta

tester, but they they let me in and it

does exactly what I just said. So it's

it's within the coming weeks if I happen

to be on some beta list then whatever.

But you know who will do this right now

is actually the the Gemini.

Oh, what are they calling it? It's their

their kind of AI suite where you can

drop documents into it and everything.

Everyone's screaming it, right? I mean,

>> you know what I'm talking about, right?

Have you played with this?

>> Oh, wait. Are you talking about Notebook

LM?

>> Yeah, notebook LM.

>> Yeah, notebook LM is getting better and

better. So, here's a fun hack. Okay,

this is a great one for your audience

cuz they like your productivity

everything. One thing that's [snorts]

really fun is imagine there's something

you want to learn that's new.

>> Insert anything you want to learn how to

do basic Pilates, right?

>> Go to chat JPT or Gemini or whatever

else and say, "Hey, give me a deep

research guide on the fundamentals of

Pilates." And then you hit go, right?

>> Mhm.

>> You wait five minutes, whatever. It

gives you back a whole script. You copy

that, paste it into notebook lm and say

create me a five minute podcast on the

fundamentals of plotties and you have an

instant podcast primer on that thing. I

use that for coding technologies. I use

I've used that for quantum computing.

Tim, do you know how quantum computing

works? Do you know how gates fold on

each other? I [snorts] didn't. And so I

drop that in there and then you say,

"Explain it like I'm five in a podcast."

Or not five, but you would say, "Explain

like I'm like a freshman in college."

>> Yeah. Fifth grader.

>> Yeah, exactly. Fifth grader. Whatever.

Like I have affantasia. I have no way to

recall this later. He gives you this

great little podcast and it's a fun

little way to learn anything new on the

go. I have to give a plug and I am an

investor in this company because it came

up in uh in a group thread. I don't

think he would mind me mentioning this,

but our mutual friend Chris Saka was

like, "My daughter just taught herself

about [snorts]

stock trading and this this and this."

And he took a screenshot and he's like,

"She created her own curriculum and da

da da da da." And it was from a startup

called Obo. And if people go to OBO,

that's obfy.

So obo.fyi,

it just says, "What do you want to learn

about? We'll make you a course." And you

literally just type it out and it gives

you everything in one place.
