1 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 1: What up, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Let's Ask Paul, 2 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,640 the podcast where you get to ask me Paul Abernathy 3 00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:42,439 anything you want about the National Lecgical Code life in general. 4 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,960 Maybe something about contracting bidding. Maybe you're having troubles with employees, 5 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,520 maybe you're trying to hire employees. Maybe is there something 6 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,320 that you just want to ask and you need somebody 7 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,719 to give you an opinion. And I'm willing to opine 8 00:00:54,759 --> 00:00:57,479 on just about anything.

But again, that is the best location 17 00:01:18,799 --> 00:01:21,280 to send me questions and things like that, So go 18 00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:25,120 visit it at Paul Abernathy dot com. All right, on 19 00:01:25,159 --> 00:01:28,159 today's episode, we have had a request from somebody and 20 00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:30,000 I'll pull it up on the screen for me to 21 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,640 be able to read more accurately, and we'll discuss it today, 22 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,000 and you're going to hear more and more about today's topic, 23 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,599 which is a no brainer. We're going to be talking 24 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,439 about artificial intelligence and how it can help the contractor, 25 00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:49,040 how can help you electricians, plumbers, mechanical guys, roofers, home inspectors, 26 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,280 municipal inspectors. We're going to talk a little bit about that, 27 00:01:51,799 --> 00:01:54,480 but I'm also going to focus on things that AI 28 00:01:54,599 --> 00:01:58,280 can do to help you run your business, can kind 29 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,920 of make you a It's kind of like hiring a 30 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,599 marketing expert for your company without having to pay the 31 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,879 money for a marketing expert. And today things have changed 32 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:13,280 so rapidly in how AI or artificial intelligence a trained 33 00:02:13,479 --> 00:02:18,199 model of information. Okay, it's just not pulling this information 34 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,439 out of the ether, right, It's actually coming from sources 35 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,919 that are typically being screened now that we're getting more 36 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,560 hypersensitive about things that are put out into the public domain. 37 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,240 But it's screening this information and bringing it back in 38 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,400 certain programs or certain projects like ours with trade Hog. 39 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,879 What we're doing is we're scrubbing that information, making sure 40 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,120 that it is validated and very relevant to whatever our 41 00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:48,840 topic is. And of course we focus on construction codes 42 00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:52,800 and standards, right, But there are other AI models out 43 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,800 there that are pretty generic that can cover a wide 44 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,439 range of things that maybe trade hog can't cover, like 45 00:03:01,039 --> 00:03:07,000 general that chat GPT is a generalized, open AI model 46 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,439 that actually is great for asking generic things like just 47 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,280 the the every day why is the world round? Or 48 00:03:17,319 --> 00:03:19,479 why is the why is there is the world flat? 49 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:23,240 Type of questions, but it doesn't do the best job 50 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,879 at individual tasks for the construction industry. Uh. And so 51 00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:31,560 but we want to talk about how AI can help 52 00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:35,759 you uh in in both of those realms. Uh. Now, 53 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,080 one of the things that we'll be doing uh and 54 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,120 I should say this to the many people is trade hog. 55 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,680 Uh Let me let me let people know what that is, 56 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,639 because this is the crux of the question. So the 57 00:03:46,719 --> 00:03:49,240 question that was asked to me, said Paul, I'm hearing 58 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,560 a lot about trade hog. In fact, it was brought 59 00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:56,000 up today in one of our business meetings, and we're 60 00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:59,599 interested in trade hog. I have been tasked to ask 61 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,639 you all about trade hog, what it can do, how 62 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,240 it can benefit us in where is it going when 63 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,280 it comes to AI in the construction industry. Thanks in advance, 64 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,360 love your podcasts, keep up the good work. Okay, that 65 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,600 was the email that I received, And so it came 66 00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:25,360 at perfect timing because you know, understanding the general contractor 67 00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:30,839 the tradesman right has no idea what really AI is. Now, 68 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,480 we have the savvy folks that spend a lot of 69 00:04:33,519 --> 00:04:36,279 time on Internet, they read things they know, but the 70 00:04:36,759 --> 00:04:39,519 mom and pops, the general people that have the boots 71 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,519 on the ground that they don't understand what AI is. 72 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,199 They don't understand how that could even remotely help their business. 73 00:04:47,319 --> 00:04:49,360 So we want to kind of shed some light on 74 00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:52,759 that for those that happened to are savvy enough to 75 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,160 actually listen to our podcasts, which by the way, is 76 00:04:55,160 --> 00:05:00,600 available on all of your favorite podcasts listening platforms, whether 77 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,839 it's Sprinker Deezer, iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music. 78 00:05:07,079 --> 00:05:10,879 Just search for Master the NEC podcast and you'll find us. 79 00:05:11,879 --> 00:05:14,319 But you can also listen from our mobile app. It's free. 80 00:05:14,519 --> 00:05:17,839 Just go to our website fasttracksystem dot com. You'll see 81 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,240 it in the navigation you can you can get it there, 82 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,800 but you can also go to a separate website that's 83 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,959 sponsored by Wicks as well, and that is n E 84 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,120 c C h A T. That's NYC chat dot com 85 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,199 and you can go there as well and download it. 86 00:05:31,319 --> 00:05:34,639 And it works on a desktop, but it's ideally created 87 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,800 for your mobile device, okay. And there's a lot of 88 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,759 calculators in there. There's a chat feature, there's a message 89 00:05:41,759 --> 00:05:44,600 board in there, there's a pod you can listen. You 90 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,399 can read the blogs in there, but you can listen 91 00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:49,199 to all the podcasts in there, So I guess that's 92 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,000 the most important part is you can listen to all 93 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:55,519 our podcasts and stream it to any Bluetooth device. Okay, 94 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,839 when you listen when you're in your shower. I listen 95 00:05:57,879 --> 00:05:59,759 to a lot of podcasts in the shower. I have 96 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:04,519 a one of those bluetooth speakers that I put in 97 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,000 the shower and then it connects to my phone and 98 00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:10,160 I play it on my phone and I can listen 99 00:06:10,199 --> 00:06:12,399 in the shower. Okay. I listen to a lot of 100 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,160 entrepreneurial podcasts and things like that. I'm a podcast guy, Okay, 101 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:19,680 I do videos, but at the end of the day, 102 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,199 podcasts are what I love the most. So just it 103 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,519 catches me. Whether I'm traveling, I'm in the car, I'm 104 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,839 working on the job, I can have the earbuds in 105 00:06:28,959 --> 00:06:32,839 or doing something and listening to a podcast. So again 106 00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:36,120 it's you know, people say, are podcast dying. I don't 107 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,279 think so. I think it's as busy as we get. 108 00:06:40,079 --> 00:06:42,959 It's just a good, unique way of getting information and 109 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,600 being able to listen. So anyway, so we want to 110 00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:50,480 talk about the AI a little bit and talk about it. 111 00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:52,480 So I kind of want to give a little introduction, 112 00:06:52,519 --> 00:06:55,879 a little bit about AI and the power that AI 113 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,240 is going to actually bring to the construction trade if 114 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,480 you embrace it. And we're not talking in an essence 115 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,519 of simply pushing trade hog to people. Okay, I'm not 116 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,600 in this episode, that's not We're talking AI in general 117 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,480 for the construction industry. Although I have to tell you 118 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,160 that since we own trade hog and we have created 119 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:22,120 that model and we're actively training that AI model, that 120 00:07:22,399 --> 00:07:24,680 we're relevant. I have to talk about it. Okay. So 121 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,160 people say Paul's just advertising, Well, I mean I am 122 00:07:28,199 --> 00:07:31,000 in business, but we're talking about AI in general today. 123 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,959 So one of the things that we have to understand 124 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:42,240 about artificial intelligence is is the AI an actual research 125 00:07:42,319 --> 00:07:45,519 tool or an automation tool? And the answer to that 126 00:07:45,639 --> 00:07:50,240 is it can be both because you can use artificial 127 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,000 intelligence in industry to automate processes, whether it's to run 128 00:07:55,079 --> 00:08:00,959 reports or to do certain tasks. That's considered AI. But 129 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,959 the research is what we focus more on is being 130 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,480 able to take our everyday tasks. It's not going to 131 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,279 replace us as a contractor, Okay, right, AI is not 132 00:08:09,319 --> 00:08:11,879 going We're not going to have these little robots going 133 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,480 around wiring houses. I know you can say well never 134 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,160 say never pull okay whatever. I'm just saying, in your 135 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,000 lifetime and in my lifetime, that ain't happening. So let's 136 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,639 focus on our lifetime, right, Okay, we can get rid 137 00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:28,120 of the plastic straws. But again, let's worry about our lifetime. Okay, 138 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:33,360 so in the sense of us and being very selfish 139 00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:36,039 about our needs because again we're here when we're dead, 140 00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:38,559 we're dead. Let's be real. Let's stop being a little 141 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,480 tree hugger. Let's get to the truth. It's about us 142 00:08:42,519 --> 00:08:44,639 and our family and taking care of our business and 143 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,000 growing and having all the dreams that we sought out 144 00:08:47,039 --> 00:08:50,759 to get. So in doing that, how can AI help that? Well, 145 00:08:50,799 --> 00:08:54,399 I see, the biggest model for an AI tool like 146 00:08:54,480 --> 00:09:00,320 trade hog is research. If I'm sitting in a situation 147 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,559 where I need creditible information that is what we call 148 00:09:06,159 --> 00:09:12,080 logically broken down into code, references and examples, that is 149 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,879 validated that if I'm a plumber, electrical roofer, mechanical guy, 150 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:22,000 or HVAC technician, an inspector, a home inspector, I need 151 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,759 that information quickly. I'm getting paid by the hour, I'm 152 00:09:25,759 --> 00:09:30,440 getting paid per project or. Time is money, right, we 153 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,879 hear that all the time. Time is money. So when 154 00:09:33,919 --> 00:09:38,320 it comes to AI, AI as a research tool to 155 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,600 me is more in tune with the construction industry, not 156 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,679 the automation. Now back in the office, it may help 157 00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:49,759 automate certain functions and certain tasks, and that's doable. Okay, 158 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,240 there's AI models that can help do that, run reports 159 00:09:53,279 --> 00:09:57,279 automatically if you want to call that AI, But it's 160 00:09:57,519 --> 00:10:03,080 artificial intelligence thinking logically in the background, based on data 161 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,600 points to spit out information that you're requesting. Now. As 162 00:10:07,639 --> 00:10:10,000 a contractor, and I have been a contractor, I was 163 00:10:10,039 --> 00:10:13,480 a contractor for many years, I get tons of questions 164 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,080 Now as an ANYC consultant today, I can tell you 165 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,840 I get hundreds of questions a meek week that people 166 00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:25,039 could literally answer themselves using trade Hog. I'm just saying 167 00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:29,519 some of the questions I get, you could literally plug 168 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,879 it into trade hog and get your answer and it 169 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,799 be reliable. Now, I always recommend that anytime we're doing research, 170 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,279 whether it's using an AI tool I like trade Hog, 171 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,720 that we always validate that information. And you've heard me 172 00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:45,759 say this over and over again. You know, when we 173 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,320 give you a coarse material, we're not reinventing the wheel. 174 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,480 Code is code. It comes straight out of the codebook. 175 00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:54,919 We're just putting it in a way that's palatable that 176 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,480 you can read it, logically, feed it to you, give 177 00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:01,679 you a process of how you learn, and allow you 178 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:06,120 to validate same thing with AI resources. Okay, it's all 179 00:11:06,159 --> 00:11:09,320 about validation. So it may give you a code reference, 180 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,879 it may give you a standard reference, and our model 181 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,080 is tuned to do it. Look at ul ASTMs. It's 182 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:21,159 designed to look at nec in FBA seventy two ASTMs, 183 00:11:21,799 --> 00:11:25,399 at CES. It's designed to look at these models and 184 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,200 bring you back relevant information. Shit, it even looks at 185 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:33,600 ADA requirements if you ask it to. And so the 186 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,320 reason behind this is for to give you the references 187 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,919 to then stop and still go validate it. I want 188 00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:40,840 you to still go to the codebook. We're not trying 189 00:11:40,879 --> 00:11:44,960 to replace the codebook, but we're getting rid of that 190 00:11:45,279 --> 00:11:51,720 time that you lose with ineffective research techniques. So you 191 00:11:51,799 --> 00:11:54,960 go straight to in our case, trade hub, put in 192 00:11:55,039 --> 00:11:57,720 the question and again and crap in, crap out. So 193 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,919 you've got to really be in tune with how you 194 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,840 write the question. And we give you some examples on 195 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,200 TRADEHK how to write questions. But you do it and 196 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,480 then it gives you the results. Now, if the results 197 00:12:08,519 --> 00:12:10,519 give you a certain thing, it allows you to ask 198 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,159 a follow up question. That's why we talk about it, 199 00:12:13,159 --> 00:12:17,759 and we call things like chat GPT. It's chat because 200 00:12:17,759 --> 00:12:21,919 it's intuitively wants to have a communication, because it learns 201 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,200 from the communication where you're at. And so we do 202 00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:27,879 the exact same thing, and we'll talk a little bit 203 00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:33,320 later how ours differs from the generic chat GPT, but 204 00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:36,440 it doesn't mean that it replaces the need. These are 205 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,200 just expenses that you add to your business function where 206 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,279 it used to be marketing fees, this, this, this, you're 207 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,399 now at a very cheap rate, are getting some of 208 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,600 the most the best employees that you could ever have 209 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,559 that are never going to talk back. They're going to 210 00:12:53,639 --> 00:12:56,120 work twenty four to seven. They you know, the only 211 00:12:56,159 --> 00:12:59,000 thing you're paying is is a monthly fee. And they're 212 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,840 always there to work for you, always there to work 213 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,200 for you. And I'm going to show you how it 214 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,720 works hand in hand. So AI is driven to perform, 215 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:13,399 like trade Hog provides instant access to critical knowledge so 216 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,559 that you can make a decision on the job critically 217 00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:19,080 at the right time, at the right moment, and have 218 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,279 a high level of assurance. That's what trade hogs all about. 219 00:13:23,039 --> 00:13:28,039 The challenge that people face with AI is the accuracy 220 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,039 and real time answers in the field and can you 221 00:13:31,159 --> 00:13:35,159 trust these So for us it's always it's been a challenge. 222 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,919 Now trade Hog is fairly new for us. We're writing 223 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,759 the back end algorithm. We're using open ai source as 224 00:13:41,759 --> 00:13:44,840 well as Jeminy from Google, and now we're also using 225 00:13:44,879 --> 00:13:50,240 AI Assistant, and we're feeding in constant, constantly putting documents 226 00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:52,919 in the feed loop in order to have it pull 227 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,240 from it. Now we've had to pay significantly for this 228 00:13:55,279 --> 00:13:57,080 because when you start out you don't get a lot 229 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,720 of access, so you have to deposit quite a bit 230 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000 of mone money into open AI. In order to get 231 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,159 access to certain tiers, and we're at the next highest tier, 232 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,519 and we had to pay for that, and that means 233 00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:12,120 that we open up and remove certain restrictions to allow 234 00:14:12,159 --> 00:14:15,519 our model to be able to be fed with additional information. 235 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,559 And we don't mind doing that because that's an investment 236 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,639 that we're making it at. We believe in the AI concept. 237 00:14:20,759 --> 00:14:23,440 We believe that it's going to help the industry, and 238 00:14:23,519 --> 00:14:25,759 I believe at this point most people have removed the 239 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,679 fear that AI is going to take their job, because 240 00:14:28,679 --> 00:14:31,960 it's certainly not going to take electricians, plumbers, mechanical guys, 241 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,720 home inspectors, and it's never going to take your job, guys, 242 00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:37,279 but it can make your life a little easier. And 243 00:14:37,279 --> 00:14:40,639 I'd rather work smarter than harder. I'm just saying now, 244 00:14:40,679 --> 00:14:46,120 AI's role in bridging the knowledge gap for professionals versus 245 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,120 an inspector is where trade hog, for example, is going 246 00:14:49,159 --> 00:14:52,879 to really shine because trade hogs going to allow the 247 00:14:52,879 --> 00:14:55,399 inspector to put in certain things that they may not 248 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,840 necessarily have the deep trade knowledge as the electrician, whereas 249 00:14:58,879 --> 00:15:02,200 electrician may not have a deep knowledge of inspection practices. 250 00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:09,360 So it's going to allow the building of your profession 251 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,759 and what you do and what you're good at and 252 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,080 being able to ask questions. It's going to pull from 253 00:15:14,159 --> 00:15:16,600 other things and look at it from a much higher 254 00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:20,559 perspective and pull back the data from data points that 255 00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:24,159 you may not have even considered. Okay, so we train 256 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,559 this model, and so what makes it different? So what 257 00:15:28,679 --> 00:15:32,320 makes trade hog generally? The first thing we'll say different 258 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,080 than a generic chat gp chat GPT is that the 259 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:41,159 generic chat gt GPT is only putting from pulling from 260 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,679 generic information. It still may bring back an answer, but 261 00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:48,159 it is a what we call a wishy washy response. Now, 262 00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:51,559 a wishy washy response is where its temperature level is 263 00:15:51,639 --> 00:15:55,240 set that it brings back a response that may be 264 00:15:55,440 --> 00:16:00,440 not geared technically accurate, but brings back opinions that maybe 265 00:16:00,879 --> 00:16:04,159 differ through the resources that it pulls from, which is 266 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,960 the Internet, in other published documents and other And let 267 00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:10,639 me tell you, experts have put out a lot of 268 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,799 documents that are very reliable. I mean, you buy the 269 00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:15,399 books so you know it's reliable. But just no way 270 00:16:15,399 --> 00:16:17,960 you can read all these books. Well, the internet can, 271 00:16:18,919 --> 00:16:23,840 and their resources are vast. The problem is it pulls 272 00:16:23,879 --> 00:16:29,120 back chat GPT pulls back such generic information that it 273 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,480 sometimes becomes wishy washy. And I've shown an example on 274 00:16:32,519 --> 00:16:36,360 some videos whereas I compare it to trade hog, it 275 00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:40,120 brings back the wrong answer in chat GPT, and then 276 00:16:40,159 --> 00:16:42,320 I ask it a follow up question and it goes, oh, 277 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,000 oh that's right, you're correct. Well, all GPT models should 278 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,240 do that, okay if you can show them something, because 279 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,720 it's constantly learning. Now, the difference in ours is that 280 00:16:52,759 --> 00:16:56,240 we're feeding it additional information that is very specific to 281 00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:03,039 the NEEC, the IPC, the IRC, okay, the UPC, that 282 00:17:03,279 --> 00:17:08,119 we're feeding in specific models to try to bring back good, 283 00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:14,559 accurate information and not looking for the genericness. Now, what 284 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:20,440 makes what makes it challenging for something like US, as 285 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,480 for trade Hog, for example, is that you know the 286 00:17:23,559 --> 00:17:27,200 NEC is A is a tough document. Take the NEC, 287 00:17:27,519 --> 00:17:32,599 the IPC, the IMC, the ada's the ass rays. Those 288 00:17:32,599 --> 00:17:37,160 are tough technical documents. And one of the biggest benefits 289 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,000 of something like trade hog or an AI model that's 290 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,160 tuned into these type of things is that you can 291 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,720 ask it questions about certain things like fire resistant ratings 292 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,960 versus a fire rated assembly, and it is geared towards 293 00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:55,759 looking for the information that is specific, rather than give 294 00:17:55,759 --> 00:17:58,359 you a bunch of jargon that maybe conjecture out on 295 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,680 the internet between maybe something that was pulled from message 296 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:06,599 boards where you can get conflicting information if you train 297 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,119 the model correctly, as we're doing with ours, we're very 298 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,839 hyper focused on something specific to the trade that that's 299 00:18:15,079 --> 00:18:19,279 very specific that we focus on. So that's one way 300 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,119 to do it. But because of the complexities of these 301 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,720 different standards, it really takes a generic chat GDP out 302 00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:30,599 of the game when it comes to that. So that's 303 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,599 where trade hog came from. Okay. The other issue is 304 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,519 that we are feeding in things like manufacturers instructions manufacturer 305 00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:44,079 guides for certain applications. And one great example of this though, 306 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,799 we did a sample test the other day where is 307 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,400 a ground screw in the metal box required to be green? 308 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,200 Can it be brass colored black? It doesn't matter color really, 309 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,960 can it? Or does it have to be green? Well, 310 00:18:58,519 --> 00:19:03,880 the generic regular twenty dollars a month smart you know 311 00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:08,200 version that you're paying for of the chat GPT said that, no, 312 00:19:08,319 --> 00:19:10,400 you can't use it, it has to be a green 313 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,519 colored screw. Well, we know that's not true because two 314 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,079 fight of the NEC makes it very clear that it 315 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,799 just needs to be a screw that's designed where it 316 00:19:19,799 --> 00:19:23,640 engages two full threads. There's no listing for screws for 317 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:28,119 grounding and bonding. They don't go through an evaluation process. 318 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,519 So at the end of the day, it was misleading information. 319 00:19:31,799 --> 00:19:36,480 And when you told the chat GPT this, it corrected 320 00:19:36,519 --> 00:19:40,640 itself and says, oh, you're right. Well, our model is 321 00:19:41,079 --> 00:19:45,519 attempting to remove that misleading step that could make somebody 322 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,599 stop and say, oh, I guess that's gospel. I'll stop 323 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,920 right there, I won't dig deeper. So it's not going 324 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,000 to be perfect, but our model is constantly learning, and 325 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,039 part of what we do is keep training it, training it, 326 00:19:57,079 --> 00:20:01,599 training it, changing the prompts, changing the way it works 327 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,799 in the background constantly in order to make sure that 328 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,920 it is as reliable as we can get in the field. 329 00:20:09,559 --> 00:20:12,960 And that's what the other difference is too. Trade Hog 330 00:20:13,039 --> 00:20:15,599 is designed for in the field. It's designed to be 331 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,599 within your technician's pocket, on their phone, it's designed to 332 00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:22,640 be on their tablet, while it can be used as 333 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,279 a desktop, and that's how we're sometimes using it. It 334 00:20:26,599 --> 00:20:30,759 really shines for use out in the field for the 335 00:20:30,799 --> 00:20:34,079 technician to be able to make split second decisions. It's 336 00:20:34,079 --> 00:20:36,720 also a great troubleshooting tool. You can put in certain 337 00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:41,519 things that you're experiencing, troubleshooting issues between transformers or panels. 338 00:20:42,279 --> 00:20:44,559 There's something's not right, the voltage is not right, and 339 00:20:44,599 --> 00:20:47,039 you can feed it. And it's designed to be looking 340 00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:50,200 for things technical rather than generic. That's the best way 341 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,799 I can say it. Now. That does not mean that 342 00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:57,480 there is not a market for a generic chat GPT 343 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960 in your life. It absolutely is. So where trade hog 344 00:21:02,039 --> 00:21:05,880 is really designed for the field professional. Back at the office, 345 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:11,400 what you've got is somebody that needs to ask generic 346 00:21:11,559 --> 00:21:15,359 questions and they need to ask generic questions about contracts, 347 00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:18,799 need a tax help, or or any type of stuff 348 00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:21,160 that there is a vast amount of information on the 349 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,839 internet and from published documents that are accurate. Tax questions 350 00:21:25,839 --> 00:21:29,079 typically get pulled from things like turbo taxes and quick 351 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,160 books and all because they're information is public and IRS 352 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,119 documents and all. All this stuff is out there. So 353 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:42,640 the generic chat GPT has a focus that can still 354 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,400 help you run your business. Generic chat GPT is brilliant 355 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,640 when it comes to asking it to write things for 356 00:21:49,799 --> 00:21:55,160 marketing or publications or letters or articles, whereas trade hog 357 00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:00,440 is more geared towards the trades. Now we will tell 358 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:07,079 people that we are introducing the first next week, trade 359 00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:09,519 hog is going to have a separate portal built in 360 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:15,039 for generic questions that aren't related specific to the trades. 361 00:22:15,279 --> 00:22:19,880 So rather than pay twenty dollars a month for a 362 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:26,160 chat GPT that brings generic information, we're going to be 363 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:31,160 introducing a generic portal for use in asking things like 364 00:22:31,279 --> 00:22:34,519 business contracts and all that kind of stuff that would 365 00:22:34,519 --> 00:22:38,440 be office back in specific and that's going to be 366 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,240 available on trade hog as well, and that's going to 367 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,440 be available to all of our paid members. Whether you're 368 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,960 in the basic or the premium, you're going to have 369 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,359 access to it. So I think you can see that 370 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,119 we see the benefit, but we also want to train 371 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,400 that as well. In other words, we don't want it 372 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,119 to bring back Ask it a question about something and 373 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,440 it brings back something that's totally off the wall. So 374 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,240 we building a model that is going to be accessible 375 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,440 to all of our members, that is going to be 376 00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:07,799 used from the back end from the office. So maybe 377 00:23:07,839 --> 00:23:13,160 you can get an account for your assistance or people 378 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,279 that work for you or that type of thing. We're 379 00:23:16,279 --> 00:23:19,799 going to be doing that and so they will get 380 00:23:19,839 --> 00:23:24,000 access to that type of model rather than the technical model, 381 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,720 because we feel that you shouldn't pay chat GPT and 382 00:23:28,799 --> 00:23:32,559 not get a very technically specific model, but a very 383 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,160 open and high tuned model for the electrical plumbing mechanical 384 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:42,240 to have it analyze things like contracts and look at documents, 385 00:23:42,279 --> 00:23:45,839 look at technical documents and pull out the summaries, all 386 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,400 those type of things that we can tailor in the 387 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,559 back end for our members. And so that's coming next week. 388 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,240 I have not announced that yet, but you're hearing that 389 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,279 first here on the pipest. So we're giving you more. 390 00:23:58,319 --> 00:24:02,079 So rather than pay chat GPTs twenty bucks for their 391 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,920 intelligent model, you always want to use the most intelligent 392 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,119 model rather than pay that, we're going to give you that. 393 00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:10,440 We're going to give you a high level and it's 394 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,400 going to be fine tuned for your industry. But we're 395 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,880 also going to give you access to our normal trade hog, 396 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,880 which is very technical for your girls and boys out 397 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,240 in the field. Okay, your men and women. Okay, it's 398 00:24:23,279 --> 00:24:25,359 easier way to say it. So I think you see 399 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,519 how we're expanding ours because we do understand the importance. 400 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,440 A lot of articles can be written. There's a lot 401 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,079 of marketing. If your company's doing blogs, or you say 402 00:24:35,079 --> 00:24:37,880 I've never done a blog before, let chat GDP do 403 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,440 your blog that you can share your newsletter with your members. 404 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,799 There's so much to make your life so much easier 405 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,400 with AI in running your business. You can ask it 406 00:24:47,519 --> 00:24:50,519 tax questions. Again, it's not a tax accountant, but it 407 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,920 pulls from a database all over the Internet, and you've 408 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,200 got a resource of things that it pulls from and 409 00:24:59,279 --> 00:25:04,000 we will be tuning that so that it pulls back 410 00:25:04,559 --> 00:25:07,039 relevant information and we can control that. By the way, 411 00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:10,799 it's all about the temperature of the conversation in the 412 00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:13,839 back end. So that's exciting that we'll be able to 413 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:18,079 offer that to our members. Okay, so that's just a 414 00:25:18,079 --> 00:25:20,960 perk that we're going to have for that, But there 415 00:25:21,039 --> 00:25:23,240 is so much stuff that you can use. The non 416 00:25:23,319 --> 00:25:27,599 technical like trade hog is technical. Okay, So the other 417 00:25:27,839 --> 00:25:32,400 is basically going to be for everything else contract review. 418 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,720 And that brings me to the next thing that's important 419 00:25:34,759 --> 00:25:37,839 about AI. I don't know if y'all have noticed this, 420 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,720 but in our demo that we have on trade hog 421 00:25:40,759 --> 00:25:43,440 dot net. To the left of the input area, there's 422 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,160 a little it looks like a little paper clip. So 423 00:25:46,279 --> 00:25:48,559 this is an example of where you can snap a 424 00:25:48,599 --> 00:25:52,240 picture in the field of the installation of the label 425 00:25:52,319 --> 00:25:55,799 on a piece of equipment in a panel, or something 426 00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:58,200 about it you don't understand, snap a picture of it, 427 00:25:58,839 --> 00:26:03,759 and you upload it into trade hog and it and 428 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,920 ask it to analyze this picture and pull out the 429 00:26:08,039 --> 00:26:13,279 key code references or key points, or summarize it or 430 00:26:13,319 --> 00:26:18,160 explain this. It will actually look at the image and 431 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,519 can It's just incredible. It can look at the image 432 00:26:21,559 --> 00:26:24,920 and tell you exactly what's in the image and how 433 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:29,319 it is. This is amazing technology because there is an 434 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,160 awful lot of labels and things that people read that 435 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,880 they just don't understand. You can even scan things that 436 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,000 are in one language and have it translated into another language. 437 00:26:40,559 --> 00:26:44,440 These are things that, to be honest with you, there 438 00:26:44,519 --> 00:26:49,079 is so much in technical jargon that people just don't understand, 439 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,480 and to have a tool in your pocket that can 440 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,680 really break that all down for you, it's just I 441 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,000 don't you know. We charge nineteen ninety five a month 442 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,039 for our base model. It's less than a meal okay, 443 00:27:04,319 --> 00:27:07,119 a nice meal. In fact, it's probably third of a 444 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,799 nice meal. And it gives you this access to all 445 00:27:10,839 --> 00:27:14,119 of this and you also get forums on the back 446 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,920 end where you can post questions if you want to, 447 00:27:16,039 --> 00:27:20,279 you know, chime in on questions depending on whether you're plumber, mechanical, 448 00:27:20,319 --> 00:27:23,440 building whatever. You know, that's an ancillary that that's additional. 449 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,440 If that's if you want to use it, you can 450 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,119 post a question for other people to review and look 451 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,160 at it. That's up to you. The real beast in 452 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:37,279 this is the is the AI model. So but yeah, 453 00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:39,759 that feature to be able to upload an image, snap 454 00:27:39,799 --> 00:27:42,599 a picture of a label. We did a test with 455 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,079 it with a four way circuit, two three ways in 456 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:48,920 a full way and we took a picture of it 457 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,799 and we had it and told us to explain this 458 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,319 picture and it went into detail about it, It went 459 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,839 in how to do it. It was just amazing and 460 00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:00,599 it's all from a picture. And so we're con working 461 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:05,440 on that constantly making it better and doing things like that. 462 00:28:05,759 --> 00:28:14,000 So for a business perspective, cheat GTP offers great advantages 463 00:28:14,039 --> 00:28:17,640 for a business and if you're an illustrator, it's great 464 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,960 because it has a model that you can create illustrations 465 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,799 and graphics, but the normal business owner that we're targeting 466 00:28:22,839 --> 00:28:26,039 doesn't need all that fluff. You're not going to create 467 00:28:26,079 --> 00:28:29,440 images that way, right, and any images aren't really tailored 468 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,599 exactly to what you need. And you probably don't know 469 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,000 how to do graphic editing, so it's pointless. But what 470 00:28:35,079 --> 00:28:37,640 it can do is can create your marketing campaigns. It 471 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,720 can create your letters. It can look at letters and 472 00:28:40,799 --> 00:28:43,160 make them more professional. It can look at the punctuation 473 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,920 on the letters. It can change the grammar to sound different. 474 00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:51,599 There's so much that it can do. It can create 475 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:56,680 a marketing campaign. It can do a podcast structure. It 476 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,200 can do blogs that you can share in a newsletter. 477 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,480 You can ask it to create a newsletter. You can 478 00:29:02,519 --> 00:29:06,079 even load in it text from some article you read 479 00:29:06,119 --> 00:29:09,559 and ask it to write an article very similar, but 480 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,640 have it focused certain topics, and it will write this 481 00:29:12,839 --> 00:29:16,079 for you. Now, for those that say, yeah, but this 482 00:29:16,119 --> 00:29:20,400 is all just making us dumber, I disagree. I think 483 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:25,960 what's happening here is that you're already im mentally intelligent. 484 00:29:26,319 --> 00:29:29,200 If you're listening to this, you've either started your careers 485 00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:32,319 in the trades or you're an owner of a company, 486 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,400 you're already ahead of the curve, right, You've already made 487 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,200 that decision. And if you haven't started your own business yet, 488 00:29:38,359 --> 00:29:40,640 this is a way to learn because you can ask 489 00:29:41,039 --> 00:29:44,920 key specific questions about business that are going to benefit you. 490 00:29:45,559 --> 00:29:47,599 And so we're going to be adding that module to 491 00:29:47,759 --> 00:29:51,480 our trade hog. But trade Hog specifically is for the 492 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,799 tradesmen in the field. Okay, let's make that very clear. 493 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:59,279 It's designed to bridge the gap of experience between somebody 494 00:29:59,319 --> 00:30:02,359 that's less knowledgeable in the trade but as being thrust 495 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,480 in a position to make decisions and those that have 496 00:30:05,599 --> 00:30:08,839 extreme experience but are in tunnel vision and can't think 497 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,359 outside of the box. So what the trade hog is 498 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,599 going to do and you're on the in the field 499 00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:18,519 is when you run into those complex situations, you feed 500 00:30:18,519 --> 00:30:21,079 the hog, and the hog will bring back information. And 501 00:30:21,119 --> 00:30:23,279 if you like what you see and you see something 502 00:30:23,279 --> 00:30:25,559 else in there that you want to ask, you just 503 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:30,119 do it. You ask it, you continue the conversation. And 504 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,680 I think that at the end of the day, you're 505 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,240 going to save money because you're not gonna be doing 506 00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:37,680 things twice. You're gonna be learning the codes. You're gonna 507 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,680 be learning applications because you can ask it application questions 508 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,400 and we have it tuned to be very specific, so 509 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,160 we don't want it to just get give you what 510 00:30:47,319 --> 00:30:50,039 if stuff. We want to be very specific. But it 511 00:30:50,079 --> 00:30:53,759 is also trained on a logic model that's going to 512 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:58,759 give you feedback okay, and so it's going to also 513 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:04,240 you can use this trade hog to diagnose issues, like 514 00:31:04,279 --> 00:31:06,960 I can ask it, why am I only getting this 515 00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:11,359 amount of voltage here and explain what system it is, 516 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,720 what could be the problem, and it will come back 517 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:19,319 with information. Yeah, it actually will. And that's what trade 518 00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:22,440 hog can do. It can help you diagnosis things. If 519 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,799 it brings back a code, for example, reference that you 520 00:31:24,839 --> 00:31:29,359 don't understand, then you could simply say, can you elaborate 521 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,400 more on section whatever, whatever, whatever, and it will do that. 522 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,240 And this saves you having to go out and get 523 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,519 book after book after book after book and try to 524 00:31:39,559 --> 00:31:44,880 research these things. It's immensely powerful and at the end 525 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:46,799 of the day, it's not going to take your job. 526 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:54,000 It's going to make your life easier. I have even asked, 527 00:31:54,119 --> 00:31:56,079 let me give you an example. I have even asked 528 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,839 chat GPT, the generic one, which again we will have 529 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:04,000 on our website. We will have it on trade Hog 530 00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:07,079 for all members very probably before the beginning of the week. 531 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,079 We'll work it on that Monday. That generic one. For example, 532 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,240 you could ask it create me a one page contract 533 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,759 for my electrical contracting business, and it will create a contract. 534 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:26,920 I have asked it before to create a privacy statement 535 00:32:27,359 --> 00:32:30,559 for my website, and I give it my website, It'll 536 00:32:30,599 --> 00:32:33,440 go look at your website. It'll pull back the information 537 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,119 and give you a privacy statement that you can post 538 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,079 on your website. Now, I'm a believer that anything that 539 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,160 comes back when it comes to documents like that that 540 00:32:43,319 --> 00:32:47,319 I proofread and check it because it sometimes I want 541 00:32:47,359 --> 00:32:51,000 to add personal flavor to it. But the interesting thing 542 00:32:51,039 --> 00:32:52,799 is you can ask and say I did not like 543 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,680 that version. Can you create me a new version and 544 00:32:55,759 --> 00:32:58,839 focus on this, and it will change it for you. 545 00:32:59,599 --> 00:33:02,880 That's the beautiful thing about introducing it into your business 546 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,480 model is it's going to save you marketing. It's going 547 00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:11,400 to save you creating copy material, reviewing copy material, making 548 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:16,400 sure all your material is accurate, grammarly, properly done. The 549 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:20,480 great structure you can ask it to create HTML to 550 00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:23,440 put on your website. You can ask it to do 551 00:33:23,599 --> 00:33:27,319 so many things that there is no way it's ever 552 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,480 taking the place of the construction industry. Is just going 553 00:33:30,519 --> 00:33:34,759 to enhance it. Now with trade hog, our biggest focus 554 00:33:34,839 --> 00:33:37,680 is making sure we have what's called smooth transition of data, 555 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,000 and that means try to bring you back results that 556 00:33:41,799 --> 00:33:46,640 are more concise for the situation that you're asking about, 557 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,279 with the hope that you're going to be able to 558 00:33:49,559 --> 00:33:54,480 type a response in order to filter it down if 559 00:33:54,519 --> 00:33:57,000 you need to, or for something that you need to 560 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,640 ask about it those type of things. That is the 561 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,720 concept of what trade hog is all about and why 562 00:34:04,799 --> 00:34:07,319 we we cited to invest in it and grow it, 563 00:34:07,839 --> 00:34:10,679 and why we're promoting it. The reason we're going to 564 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:16,840 add the additional one is we want to make sure 565 00:34:17,519 --> 00:34:22,760 that we give the members who are subscribers extra benefit 566 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,639 because again we want to get you away from purchasing 567 00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:29,639 things like chat GPT. We want you to purchase trade hog. 568 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,960 We're very honest about that. But in that model, we 569 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,519 want to give you everything that you could get from 570 00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:39,280 a chat GPT for the same price, plus we want 571 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,840 to give you the more enhanced one for the trades, 572 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,079 so that as a contractor and that's all we focus on, 573 00:34:46,119 --> 00:34:48,480 by the way, we're not trying to be chat GPT. 574 00:34:49,159 --> 00:34:52,320 What we focus on as contractors. We focus on plumbers, 575 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,480 mechanical builders, anything in the trades. We want to give 576 00:34:55,519 --> 00:34:59,599 you the tools to bring specific technical questions to the 577 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,760 so you can answer them and resolve your issue. But 578 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,440 we also want to give you another back end for 579 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:07,440 you to be able to use it to create contracts. 580 00:35:07,519 --> 00:35:11,639 Look at letters, review contracts, have it automatically review, upload 581 00:35:11,679 --> 00:35:14,159 your PDF and let it analyze it for you. And say, 582 00:35:14,599 --> 00:35:16,920 maybe somebody gives you a contract and you want to 583 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,840 take it and load it in. You load the PDF 584 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,599 in and ask it to bring back the key summary 585 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,519 of this contract, and it will read the contract for 586 00:35:25,559 --> 00:35:29,119 you and give you a summary. Believe it or not, folks, 587 00:35:30,199 --> 00:35:33,440 that's what we're doing and it's just amazing. So there's 588 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,440 no way that this is bad for you. And nineteen 589 00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:40,000 ninety five is our best plan. That's the cheapest plan. 590 00:35:40,079 --> 00:35:43,760 The premium gives you a little more searches, but at 591 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,199 the end of the day, the basic plan is what 592 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,639 most people go with. Nineteen ninety five a month. I 593 00:35:48,639 --> 00:35:50,519 don't think you can go wrong, especially we're going to 594 00:35:50,639 --> 00:35:52,760 keep adding to it, adding to it and adding to it, 595 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,559 and the price is staying where it's at. We're very 596 00:35:56,559 --> 00:35:59,760 comfortable with the nineteen ninety five a month, very comfortable 597 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,199 with it. We think that it's going to be the 598 00:36:01,199 --> 00:36:07,320 best investment that you'll ever make. So let's end this 599 00:36:07,639 --> 00:36:12,119 kind of talking about AI growth from we're moving from 600 00:36:12,599 --> 00:36:16,960 general searches and search engines like Googles and all those 601 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:21,960 type of things that are rapidly unreliable and can and 602 00:36:22,039 --> 00:36:24,480 can be gamed if you will. In other words, if 603 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,000 you pay a certain amount of money, you can be 604 00:36:26,039 --> 00:36:27,599 at the top of the search engine, so you can 605 00:36:27,639 --> 00:36:30,920 be found. So we're trying to get away from a 606 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:36,320 gamification of a search engine and being more field specific, 607 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:41,119 and that's what Tradehok's doing. It's more fields specific. We've 608 00:36:41,119 --> 00:36:43,159 also created an app that you can load on your 609 00:36:43,199 --> 00:36:47,920 phone and so it keeps it centralized, and so that's 610 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,360 kind of of our focus. It's AI driven and learning, 611 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,800 and it adapts to the new codes, the materials and 612 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,480 everything that we feed into it. New technology, evolving changes 613 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,400 to the code. All that stuff gets fed into the 614 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,079 model and it just gets smarter and smarter and smarter. 615 00:37:04,519 --> 00:37:09,400 The problem with search engine searches, and even with integrated AI, 616 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,760 it's a very watered down generic response and we're looking 617 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,119 for very technical responses. It just is what it is. 618 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:23,719 AIS impact on training and knowledge retention. AI is an 619 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,719 on demand mentor. It's always there, whether you're an apprentice 620 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,920 or a seasoned professional. It is always there to autonomously 621 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,719 give you advice and make recommendations based on what you 622 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,079 feed in, and it's going to analyze it and verify 623 00:37:36,119 --> 00:37:40,039 it and spit out logical data okay. As Spock would 624 00:37:40,079 --> 00:37:42,920 say in the old Star Treks areas, it's logical and 625 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,480 that's what it's going to be looking at. And it's 626 00:37:44,559 --> 00:37:48,280 up to us as good stewards of this AI modules, 627 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,639 to keep training it in order to make sure so 628 00:37:51,679 --> 00:37:55,639 there will be constantly changing, changing, changing and evolving our prompts. 629 00:37:55,679 --> 00:37:59,320 It'll be evolving our back end. It'll require us to 630 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,000 make a signal investments in the AI open AI structure. 631 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,119 We do not use deep seek okay, which is a 632 00:38:07,199 --> 00:38:10,360 Chinese model, a very intuitive model, but we do not. 633 00:38:10,599 --> 00:38:12,519 We don't integrate that and we have no plans to 634 00:38:12,559 --> 00:38:18,880 ever integrate that because of data retention. But it also 635 00:38:19,159 --> 00:38:24,880 reduces the learning curve because you can ask specific questions 636 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:30,280 to an AI model. Right, So, our very significant change 637 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,400 that we're making is adding a second search module, and 638 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,920 that search module is the generic module for contracts and 639 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,320 all those other generic stuff. But when you need it 640 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,280 in the field, you're going to use trade hog. That's 641 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,039 just the way we want to tailor it. But we 642 00:38:46,079 --> 00:38:47,880 want to give you the best of both worlds. Again, 643 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,960 I always want to give you more. And so if 644 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,400 you're paying nineteen or twenty bucks a month for chat GTP, 645 00:38:53,599 --> 00:38:56,320 that's a very generic model. Maybe you don't need all 646 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,079 their other bells and whistles like Dally and all that 647 00:38:59,119 --> 00:39:02,719 for image illustrate creation and you're not into that. We're 648 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,079 going to give you the answer to that. We're going 649 00:39:04,119 --> 00:39:07,400 to give you a very field specific code referenced, supported, 650 00:39:07,519 --> 00:39:11,280 validated AI model, but we're also going to give you 651 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:15,159 access to a wide open, generic one that will tailor 652 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,800 to the construction industry. Okay, we'll tailor it so that 653 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,119 the responses don't bring back willy Wanka type of stuff. 654 00:39:23,119 --> 00:39:26,119 That it brings back stuff that's very relevant to your 655 00:39:26,199 --> 00:39:31,559 trade or contract. How contracts are structured for the trades. 656 00:39:31,679 --> 00:39:33,599 And it's going to look at that type of stuff. 657 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,519 We're making that available as well starting next week to 658 00:39:36,639 --> 00:39:39,360 all of our members, that type of thing. Okay, So 659 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:43,440 where's the future for the trades, Well, it's expanding access 660 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,559 city and state specific codes. We're going to be feeding 661 00:39:46,559 --> 00:39:49,599 models in state specific that's going to help it learn 662 00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:53,920 even more. It's getting to the point where it understands 663 00:39:54,039 --> 00:39:58,960 natural language, understand the more precise answers that are spoken 664 00:39:59,079 --> 00:40:02,599 in a more live, logical flow. That's what we're working on. 665 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,280 That's what our latest model tries to bring it back 666 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,400 like you're having a conversation with a real person. That 667 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,519 was a tricky one because you have to you have 668 00:40:10,559 --> 00:40:13,000 to train the model a certain way to get that. 669 00:40:14,599 --> 00:40:17,320 And at the end of the day, we will continue 670 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,239 to evolve the AI as far as ARM projects are 671 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,000 concerned here at Electrical Code Academy, and we want it 672 00:40:24,079 --> 00:40:29,280 to always be something that is very knowledge driven, decision based, 673 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:35,199 technically substantiated results for trade professionals. That's that's what we're 674 00:40:35,199 --> 00:40:39,800 trying to do. Okay, So trade professionals don't need automation, Okay, 675 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,760 you need answers. Trade Hog is being designed and it's 676 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:48,119 powered by AI and we're using multimodel input or modality 677 00:40:48,159 --> 00:40:53,280 input and output to provide real time trade specific knowledge 678 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:59,440 for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, inspectors, home inspectors. Really, what 679 00:40:59,559 --> 00:41:03,599 trade is doing is it's serving as an intelligent research assistant, 680 00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:07,239 but it's helping bridge the gap between people that may 681 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:11,400 be novice and professionals. At the end of the day, 682 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,519 it's helping everybody make informed decisions in the field. That's 683 00:41:14,559 --> 00:41:18,840 going to be better decisions for our consumers. Okay, they're 684 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,239 paying good money. It doesn't matter whether it's your first 685 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,079 day on the job or you've been there for twenty 686 00:41:23,079 --> 00:41:26,400 five years. The customer doesn't care. The customer what's a 687 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,599 good result, accurate result, and this is going to help 688 00:41:29,639 --> 00:41:31,639 you give them that and ultimately it's going to speak 689 00:41:31,679 --> 00:41:34,480 volumes for your company. So you don't have the simple 690 00:41:34,519 --> 00:41:37,599 mistakes that are made by the novice, and you don't 691 00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:40,000 have the professionals who aren't willing to think outside of 692 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,480 the box. So it bridges the gap. And I think 693 00:41:42,519 --> 00:41:44,239 that's what trade hog does, and I think that's what 694 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:48,159 AI artificial intelligence does, and that's how it can be 695 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:53,119 brought into the construction trades without the fear that you're 696 00:41:53,159 --> 00:41:55,360 going to lose your job. That's not going to happen 697 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,320 for executives. It's going to make your job easier. For 698 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,480 the apprentices. It's going to make your job. Your understanding, terminologies, 699 00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:05,719 code standards, how it's applied, applicability, all that kind of stuff. 700 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,679 For the people that work in your company. The AI 701 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,079 model that brings, you know, not technical model, but the 702 00:42:13,079 --> 00:42:15,719 one that they use in their office. That one's going 703 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:21,719 to bring the ability to have it write the contracts, proposals, estimates, 704 00:42:22,559 --> 00:42:25,599 be able to give you a marketing material. It can 705 00:42:25,679 --> 00:42:29,480 analyze certain things that you feed into it. All of 706 00:42:29,519 --> 00:42:31,840 those type of things are just going to make your 707 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,639 company better. It's going to make your field, folks better. 708 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:41,199 Everybody wins with AI. So let's not confuse AI with 709 00:42:41,599 --> 00:42:46,679 seeing the little robots walking around taking over humans daily tasks. 710 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:51,880 That's automation AI. That's different than what we're talking about 711 00:42:52,199 --> 00:42:57,239 in making our businesses run better, smoother and more efficient 712 00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:02,760 and get the answers we need quickly and accurately. That's 713 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,599 what you use trade on for. Okay, all right, folks, 714 00:43:05,599 --> 00:43:07,719 hopefully you got something out of today's podcast. I hope 715 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,960 the individual that submitted it got what he wanted out 716 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,800 of it. If you have any questions, you know, you 717 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,599 can always go to trade hog dot net. Try it out. 718 00:43:17,639 --> 00:43:19,840 We have a free demo up there. You get to 719 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,519 try it for a couple questions if you want to 720 00:43:22,559 --> 00:43:25,000 ask it whatever you want.

If you try to 723 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,079 break it by putting in jargon that it's not going 724 00:43:34,119 --> 00:43:38,559 to understand or slang that it's not really understood, then 725 00:43:38,559 --> 00:43:40,400 you're gonna it's gonna have a hard time because it's 726 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,400 not geared to that. You have to be a professional. 727 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:45,840 You have to kind of think about how you ask 728 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:52,559 the question, and ask the question very specifically. I want this, this, this, 729 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,119 give me the NEC references for this, this this or 730 00:43:56,159 --> 00:44:00,199 the International Plumbing Code i PC references for this.

So if you intelligently put something 738 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,719 in structured for an answer, then you'll get an intelligent response. Okay, 739 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:32,000 always remember that with AI, it's can't fix stupid, but 740 00:44:32,079 --> 00:44:34,840 can help mediate it.
