🔍 Exploring Connections: AI and Video Analysis at Work 🤖🎥 I recently set out to test how accurate AI (specifically ChatGPT) can be in finding historical connections between two seemingly unrelated videos: 1️⃣ A clip from the 2024 London New Year’s Day Parade (LNYDP) 🎉 2️⃣ The iconic 2017 clip from Peter Kay’s Car Share titled "There’s a Monkey on Board" 🐒🚗 The goal was to explore potential relationships between the content. Could the parade have referenced the Car Share clip in some way? Here are a few possibilities the AI suggested: Shared Theme or Humor: Could the 2024 LNYDP have included a comedic or cultural nod to Car Share? Featured During LNYDP: Did the parade highlight the "monkey on board" theme through a float or performance? Organizers' Choice: Was Car Share used as part of the entertainment program? Viral Connection: Could there be a coincidental theme or tribute that links the two? While the AI provided intriguing suggestions, verifying the connection without detailed event footage or official program content proved challenging. This test highlights the exciting potential—and limits—of AI in analyzing historical context and entertainment. Have you experimented with AI for exploring connections or research like this? Let’s discuss! #AI #ChatGPT #LNYDP #VideoAnalysis #CulturalConnections #AIInMarketing #LinkedInLearning #londonsnewyearsdayparade #chesneyhawkes #boyzlife

Is Cosmos the new AI-driven alternative to Pinterest for creatives? For those after more than just mood boards, Cosmos offers a dark and moody interface.

Another AI gem by Miro that I've just got access to as part of Intelligent Canvas: Conversation Summaries 🙏 I've been working 4 days per week for the past 6 years. Most common scenario? Monday morning, sitting in front of the screen and trying to catch up with EVERYTHING that has been discussed while I was away. OR you come back from vacation and need to browse through all the conversations that have piled up. 👉 Miro's got a fix 💃🏻 Just let it summarize everything! Aaaaall those seemingly thousands of comment threads! And BOOM you're up to date in minutes instead of hours! Craaaazy!!!! 🤯 Watch the recording of me handling different lengths of conversations within SECONDS!👇 #MiroAI #Miro #Miropartner
