Wa- so tell me how you in your new state-
First of all, I'm retired
I know
...
I don't even know what's happening in the market.
No.
That's not true.
What you talking about, Willis?
[laughs]
That's what I was gonna ask, is like how do you go about keeping up with what's going on in the world and the markets now that you are retired in a little bit different phase?
Yeah, so well, first of all, I write DIY Daily every day.
That helps.
So, and it's funny, we just had a question about AI, and I, we were running out of time, and I, I was gonna say this, but, uh, every morning, and I'm not using my own agent, I'm using a friend of mine's, and it was my experiment and so forth, and now I'm in the process of setting up my own AI agent at my house.
I mentioned that a little bit.
But my buddy was, he was adamant on this.
He was like, "You do not put an AI agent on your home machine, ever."
Mm-hmm.
And he's like, "You need to put it on the Mac Mini so that if you need to throw it in the river, we throw it in the river." And I'm like, "Okay, no problem." So I'm in the process of setting up that, but every day I get an email, or not an email, I get a message.
We use a, a, a chat service on our phone.
I get a message that the DIY Daily is done, and I can look at it, and I click a link, and I look at the DIY Daily, and I begin editing because it's AI written in the beginning, and 9 times out of 10 it's wrong.
I s- I shouldn't say it's wrong, it's that there, the agent is missing what I'm looking for-
Right
... or I'm looking to do.
Now sometimes there's things in there and I'm like, "Oh, I didn't know that," and then I gotta go research a little bit because I wanna add a little bit more color, et cetera.
