Lead Memo

🍿🎥 Just take a moment to watch and consider

that the movie below was made using OpenAI’s Sora - a generative AI video maker.

Now consider all that one can do with this - from making feature films to undetectable deepfakes.

BTW - OpenAI wants to see more of these and wants Hollywood to get directly involved in using Sora.

🧐 🌮 Get Access to Gemini 1.5 Pro

Google recently released Gemini 1.5 Pro. It is free and that means you can take advantage of its context window of up to 1M tokens — enough to upload massive files or even long videos.

Here is how to get it:

1. Go to the Gemini 1.5 Pro announcement site

2. Scroll down a bit until you see the big Gemini 1.5 logo and under that is the “Try Gemini 1.5” button

3. From there you may need to log into your Google account but you will eventually be brought into the Google AI Studio (see pic above)

4. Verify you have Gemini 1.5 Pro loaded (see the yellow circle in the pic above)

5. Now you start chatting!
