Hey, what's going on, everybody?

Andy Halliday (0:01)

Welcome to The Daily AI Show. We are 15 minutes later than we wanted to be because we ran into all sorts of Fun Tuesday problems, and we are trying to get it all sorted out.

Brian Maucere (0:14)

We've been here.

Beth Lyons (0:15)

Where y'all be?

Brian Maucere (0:16)

This is just what's happening.

Andy Halliday (0:18)

Jeff says he found it, which is good, and I just, sorry, that's me replaying it. I was just validating that we are, in fact, live on YouTube, which we are.

Gareth Hood (0:30)

Okay, I got to let Gareth know. He's waiting in the show's channel that I had to go up to see it as a reply to today's show.

Andy Halliday (0:41)

Yeah. So sorry for being late. Thank you for being here. Hey, Cisco. Hey, Jeff. Thanks for being patient with us and also letting us know that we were live. We were actually live on LinkedIn. We weren't live on YouTube due to some errors with StreamYard and how they set things up. We were laughing and saying it's been over three years, 800 and what? This is episode 817

And this was the day. This is the day of Bidets after all the time. So we're here, we're ready, we're resetting. We're just slightly later than we were to get going. Okay. So today is December 22nd. We could do this.

Focus. Hey Gareth. It's Red Day.

Brian Maucere (1:29)

Yeah, it was like we matched.

Andy Halliday (1:31)

September 22nd, 2026 And with me today now are Beth, Gareth, Andy and Brian.

It took us so long to get this right that we actually waited long enough for Gareth to join us live and stuff like that.

Brian Maucere (1:45)

So glad you're here.

Andy Halliday (1:46)

I'm glad this wasn't the one I was just saying on the other live that Anne was saying she was iffy to make it. So glad actually she she didn't on this one because it would just be more confusing to get the links out and stuff like that. So we're good. We're reset. And as I was saying on the first live earlier was you, all three of you actually were here yesterday. I wasn't, but I was at the beginning of the show when we were dealing with other issues and it was just the Monday, Tuesday. And I would say Andy or Beth, one of you were saying to the other one like, oh, you know, look, we're really early on AI. And I was saying that I wanted to be on the show because I wanted to say, yeah, and JEV too. We were early on JEV. And so Beth, I know you had played with it. I had done some demos with it because I had gotten the not early access. I just got fast access like you did Beth. I had it within 24 hours and I had some time in the morning to play with it. I was showing some like what I was getting excited about in terms of like just basic stuff like transcripts and digging through it.

I think there's been a lot out there on JEV and what it is. But if you don't know, it's not an LLM, but it is a model that basically you bake into the back end exactly what your criteria are. So it's not actually, I wouldn't call it revolutionary by any means. There's been plenty of systems where you give it yes or no's or you give it a criteria or I forget what the third, it's Noll's criteria and I forget what the third one is.

For how JEV is set up. But now it seems like all the other newsletters are talking about it a ton, which is great. One of the things that came out of that that I wanted to start to show with is that somebody on X demoed running JEV to see how fast it can remove negative comments from chat. So literally like we have live chat right now here. Now ours are manageable. We're able to talk to everybody. Everybody is pretty good. We have removed comments and people and blocked them in the past because of obvious reasons. Not everybody is here for the right reasons. But you can imagine if you're a Twitch game streamer or something to that effect where it's quite literally just a stream of comments, just running comments. I think everybody is seeing some sort of version of that. And this guy, Dev Ed, D-E-V space and then the name Ed, E-D, he was showing that he was able to basically get this dialed in enough that it was getting rid of negative comments, but not constructive criticism.
