Description
What have I learnt from AI meetups & real life conversations<br /><br />Welcome everyone, Kyrin here with Ep#19 of Mere Morpheus. Today we're going over the types of people I have met interacting with AI and where this says we are in the adoption curve. Along the way, I reflect on why we’re still in the 1–2% tinkerer phase, where hallucinations and data curation remain hard and why understanding agent architecture (without deep coding) still matters. Meetups are exploding, practical use-cases are piling up and the trade-offs between frontier closed models and fast‑catching open models continue. <br /><br />This is a Value 4 Value show so please provide back any value you got with some time, talent or treasure! <br /><br />Timeline:<br />(00:00:00) Intro<br />(00:02:07) Pre‑mingle at AI Builders Brisbane and the cybersecurity skeptic<br />(00:04:32) Curious but not technical: the early majority hit a wall<br />(00:06:33) Super‑users in the wild: young builders changing education<br />(00:08:20) Limits of personal aptitude: from maths analogies to AI architecture<br />(00:09:15) Everyday people buffeted by hype: jobs, fear, and indifference<br />(00:11:01) The tinkerer’s lane: playing, not plumbing the depths<br />(00:12:48) Juan the news‑tracker<br />(00:14:13) Business impact: Suncorp’s AI mandates and agent teams<br />(00:18:12) Support realities: human vs chatbot across generations<br />(00:20:02) Meetups exploding: from rare events to weekly options<br />(00:24:53) Why some architecture knowledge still matters<br />(00:28:32) Near‑future UX: personalised apps, agents, and voice first<br />(00:32:55) Closing plans: more inference, Morpheus skill, Venice compute <p><br /><br />If you would like to support me for the value I provide you can use the referral link below when depositing capital and we will both earn bonus MOR.
