G’day folks.
I’m sat here typing this on a Sunday morning after a bad nights sleep to see that the founder of Telegram, Pavel Durov has been arrested in France. Crazy move aimed at shutting down privacy.
Bad times.
Before we dive into the topic of todays email, I’d love to know what you think of this 👇️
So here’s what weapons I have for you today.
I
Flux is a new image generation model that can create incredibly life-like images!
Because it’s open sourced, you can create you own personal version trained on images of you, to create a digital version of yourself.
This is a BIG deal!
The business model of agencies, photography, ad placements will all be flipped.
Why do a physical photoshoot and pay thousands if you can do it for pennies now? All using a digital person that you don’t have to pay.
Wild.
You can try Flux across a few different image generation tools:
You can train a custom version of Flux on a model and another one on a product of yours. Combine these to get consistent, quality images of your model holding/wearing that item. Add a image to video step like Runway and enjoy!

You may or may not have heard about “AI Agent” before.
If you haven’t they’re like mini digital workers that can complete tasks for you.
Simple version they can understand and reply to emails.
Complex version is they take in customer support queries, update the database then either complete the task or route the user to a human.
Now imagine you have many of these working together to run your business.
Crazy hey. Give it a try here.

I don’t know about you but I’ve always wanted to be able to speak different languages.
So far, I’ve not put the effort in to do it.
But now….I might have a work around 👀
Toby is a simple app you can install that allows you to translate your voice live when on things like Zoom or Google meet.
Yes really.
Pick the input language (the one you speak) then choose the output language (the one you want to speak) and that’s it.
Go live on a Google meet and suddenly the person on the other end of the call will hear you speaking Spanish or Mandarin.
This is the future I want to live in! Try it now for free here.
That’s it for today folks.
If you liked this format, let me know with a one word reply.
See you on the next one,
Tom
