create until things click, then keep creating.

Creators are surrendering to AI... Where tf are the real ones? Who is making REAL stuff these days? I need to refresh my feed.

I'm back :)

2026 is going to be insane.

anyone here in my network lives in Montreal by any chance? looking for some advice on best places to live there (that aren't too expensive)

I was partaking in some tomfoolery this Halloween. Having fun makes you create better.

getting back to the internet after a long hiatus, what did I miss?

@tobi That's huge!

You can now build Shopify stores with AI in Lovable

I can give people a million reasons why we should be able to differentiate human-made art from AI. But the question is: How the f*ck are we going to do that? AI in general is in desperate need of some kind of blockchain style traceability system or something like that.

In my "learning who the f*ck I am" era.

Guess who was just fired from their job without notice? I have 3 months to find a new job in Canada otherwise my visa expires and I'm f*cked because I have nowhere to go back to in Brazil. Talk about a curveball..

Made a video about the book you see people quote all the time but barely anyone *actually* reads. And what you can learn from it, apart from the obvious insights. Link you know where 👀

This is the way

@PaddyG96 I have applied but $3k price point is just impossible for smaller channels like mine :/ Hopefully I'll join in the future!

We found the formula for growing YouTube channels. Then we put it into an 8 week live program. The result: We’ve helped 100s of creators blow up. 🎉Announcement: We’re looking for 100 driven and passionate creators to join my July Accelerator cohort! Here's the quick rundown on the cohort and why it’s so effective: - 8 weeks with 3 live sessions per week. Interactive, plenty of Q&A. - I share my entire playbook for growing YouTube channels. Literally everything I know. - We give personalised feedback on your content through assignments, this isn’t a “video course” - 100% of surveyed students said it was worth the money. 90% would strongly recommend to another YouTuber. - If you attend the sessions and don't find it valuable, we'll give you your money back. Go read the landing page & apply through the link below. I’m going to pick 1 person who likes and quote tweets this with their biggest youtube learning… and give them a free scholarship ♥️

New vid is out 🔴 A comprehensive guide on how to turn multiple interests into a unique brand. You know where to find it 👀

@haridigresses You're old fashioned 🤷

Call me old fashioned, but I think building a company is a craft. Not this low-nutrition, high-calorie junk. Not sure what's causing this spike in startup slop.

1000% accurate. Go through some shit and be reborn.

@sheevammmm Stop using normal chat and build your custom GPT instead with clear instructions, a meta/system prompt with all the info it will need.

How to stop ChatGPT from always agreeing?

People think AI is gonna replace humans. Ironically, AI is making human authenticity even more powerful. Everyone can have a piece of the pie. Humans and robots (controlled by humans) alike. Build around what you love and believe. Simply because you can.

Focusing on money early in your creator career is completely FINE. It doesn't make you less of a creator. You're not selling out. You create to make money until you make money to create.
