Another AI thread (Artificial Intelligence) practical applications in "regular folks" lives

[biomedtechguy]

Let us know if you do that, buy an already monetized channel and the whole process. I know its possible but a first hand account would be interesting.

This morning I'm following up to implement my Recurring Monthly Revenue (RMR) plans I'm working with Grok to get ideas for and then launch.
First thing was to setup a new Gmail account dedicated to all of these projects and to use to sign in at multiple sites for social media, free web services that Ai can use to develop them, and so on.
I applied to get an invitation code for ManusAi using the info Grok suggested to maximize the chances of being approved, and quickly. FYI ManusAi has a rare capability to automate development of all kinds of "digital stuff" like YouTube shorts videos, digital manuals to sell online, and on and on.
I also setup new social media accounts on X and TikTok (for now) strictly for the purposes of driving web traffic to whatever products I launch (again, YouTube videos, shorts, digital "How To ___" manuals, and so on). I did that before I completed the ManusAi form because it's a question it asks.

Look, I've already found Ai helpful for my business of 9+ years, but while Ai is still relatively new and has FREE access, and before more and more people catch on and these ways of making money have exponential numbers of others crowding the field, I have a specific goal that I want desperately to meet, and if I can you will all know that I succeeded.
Besides, I'm tired of watching the hours and days go by with me wasting time doing stuff like watching TV as a diversion to "relax". I find this Ai stuff fascinating and if it adds to my bank account, I will worry less, and quite possibly, hopefully, be able to once again do things with my free time that I'll have more of, things like spending time with my lifelong best friends all doing stuff we've enjoyed since we were teenagers.

This may come as no surprise to anyone on the forum, but at least if you have been reading the posts in this thread I started you either:
Are a forum friend or someone who is following my posts
Or
You have an interest in the topic.
The "no surprise" part is finding anyone I know well to talk to about my progress.
For example, I have already been approved for access to ManusAi! There are people who had to wait days, and some who were never approved.
One thing I'm sure of:
If my goals are met or exceeded the results are going to be appreciated, no tech background required!

The section I bolded pretty much always described me. Yes I watch TV but even as a kid I rarely just watched TV, I also would read something at the same time or work on some computer related thing. That primed me to fall into a tech career at around 29 (in my 50s now) and I always learned new tricks, last couple of years AI has helped me bridge the gap to some extent where while I am highly technical but I am a talentless developer. I've made things at work with it that gave real dev's a quick oh **** moment because they never thought to build it.

Also a properly educated dev may not have the skills to duct tape and bubble gum different technologies together to make something work, I do and think to ask AI about that approach and the taping begins.

I'll look forward to the updates, no idea if at some point I will copy anything but part of what made me a tech guy was just wanting to know things even if I don't apply them.

I'll look forward to the updates

Thanks. I figured you were still hanging in there on this thread.
I understand why there's little interest on this forum, but that's also a reason why what I'm doing is giving me an edge, in some areas more than others.
It may just be there are "basement dwelling 20-somethings" that are far better at doing the things I'll be trying because of the generation each of us are in.
I'm going to rely on:
¹God's Grace and Blessings
because He is the only reason I'm sucking air, and while it's been true since my first breath, I have had 63 years to appreciate our relationship.
²Entrepreneurial spirit
After having worked for others in Audio/Video and Home Theater for 13 years, I started my own A/V HT business in 2003, and ran with it for 6 solid years.
When it was tapering down I came across an article on Biomedical Tech jobs in US News and World Report and they tagged it as a solid career path. Referring back to my #1 reliance, there "just so happened" to be a 2 year Associate of Applied Science-Biomed Tech degree program at my local Community College, and it was a great school with great teachers and at 49 years old, I had a whole different outlook on being a student.
Again, I was blessed to learn quickly that landing a job with GE Healthcare, one of THE biggest biomed corporations on earth, that some would consider the "brass ring", only served to make me aware quickly that I was not a good match for the soul and life devouring monster that it, and many other corporations are. Still lining up with the miraculous path that I recognized but couldn't have orchestrated, the privately owned biomed company I did my schoolwork's mandatory internship with was my next employer after GE, and after only 3 years there what I learned and experienced would position me to start my own Biomed Tech business and here I am after 9+ years using Ai for growing it in ways I am not good at thinking up or implementing.
AND
Now I'm also leveraging Ai to develop independent no to low cost income streams.

And the Ai part of the story was all from one political personality suggesting his audience "check it out"...

Your jump to bio med reminds me a bit how I jumped into tech. I didn't have to do any additional education but I literally went from being a security guard standing in a dodge dealer parking lot all night to being a contractor at a big semiconductor company two weeks later. Quite a jump into a different world.

What made the jump was I played with web design back in 1999 and everyone felt they needed a page, either personal or a company needed an "intranet" page. I had an in at the company who I kept helping for free so they hired me, then 2 days later someone at that company asked if I could make a site for their parents business, from guarding Dodge Neons to having two clients for web design. Then two weeks later the semi company really liked my work ethic and asked if I would be interested in doing QA since they had zero QA in their division, I said yes not even knowing what it entailed.
Several companies later but still a SW QA, I liked to think being flexible and working hard paid off somewhat. It certainly wasn't because I had a career plan!

I didn't have to do any additional education

I'm being more accurate saying what I learned in my 2 years of "Trade School" added to or gave me greater understanding of what I already knew. I definitely learned more stuff. I haven't used much of it but I had to earn that degree to be "official".

 

[OneWheelPeel]

Yeah make sense, and I should also say I had no FORMAL additional education. Always been self taught and just continued that, buts it neverending education.
