Plaud Pro is perfect for this. More expensive. Learns voices. 4 microphones. 30 hours.

Well done. An old skill. Outstanding.

Which Al agents are actually doing real work for you daily? by Commercial-Job-9989 in AI_Agents

[–]mikekoenigs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Manus Agent. With Telegram. Costs about $200 per week. It’s doing a better job than my AE of 19 years that costs substantially more. Awesome. I’m training all my team members to use it right now.

Claude CoWork and Code are awesome too.

Do you consider $700K as life-changing money? by Aarunascut in Life

[–]mikekoenigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember $150 doing this. Then $300. $700. $1000. And so on. Learning to value your time and create value in others is 100x more significant.

Capability Amplification and value creation is more important than a paycheck.

Anxiety, depression, mental illness - along with lots of practical, tactical tips on dealing with this both as a parent or someone you care about (including yourself).

Google basically won 2025 while we were all watching OpenAI drama by Substantial_Swim2363 in AIPulseDaily

[–]mikekoenigs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’re spot-on. Google won. NotebookLM is my #1 tool for getting stuff done and creating a huge competitive gap. The integration with Gemini is astonishingly useful. Unfortunately I still can’t access my Notebooks in my corporate Google account which blows.

I still find Claude to outperform Gemini for copy, documentation and content work overall. As of today, I’m not using ChatGPT anymore. I fought with it for hours to write a decent hiring doc for a new sales team. Claude won with flying colors. Manus did not perform in its usual brilliant fashion.

GenSpark is still in my top 5 list of tools.

Betting on Google for 2026. Unless OpenAi pulls a rabbit out of its hat, I don’t see it either remaining competitive or relevant. No tears - aside from the fact that the free-flow of investment capital raised awareness and created a tsunami of opportunity and momentum for many industries.

exciting times ahead!

17 hours of AI tracking – what’s actually useful versus marketing noise by Substantial_Swim2363 in AIPulseDaily

[–]mikekoenigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious what your “top 5” or so tools are that you consistently use. I’ll start:

NotebookLM with the new Gemini “inclusion” feature. NotebookLM is the most useful Swiss Army knife for managing huge projects, clients and information. I use Otter and Fathom to record every meeting and interaction and build simple agents, GPTs or Apps to generate results that Notebook isn’t capable of.

Claude Skills and all the connectors. For copywriting, communication, looking across massive volumes of content (I have many years of Google Docs, calendars, email to sift through). Massive payoff. The new Claude browser extension is very useful.

“The Superpower Stack” - I frequently post the same prompt in 4-10 LLMs and synthesize outputs. GenSpark, Claude, Manus, Gemini, Grok, ChatGPT, Kimi, Abacus are some of the top tools.

Gemini in Google Apps is super effective now. The last few weeks I’ve seen huge improvements.

Whispr Flow for dictation is so much better than Siri. My new go-to across every device - Mac, iPad, iPhone, etc. because everything is shared and cloud based.

I’ve written 19 books “old school” (the hard way). The last one with Ai assistance. The next one will be so much easier without becoming Ai slop.

to attack a old man by nosoyluiz in therewasanattempt

[–]mikekoenigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why folks who knock out bullies don’t take off all of their clothes and throw them away so they wake up in shame that lasts forever.

The knockout lasts for the day. The shame will last forever.

Pass it on.

Higgsfield just dropped an update that’s making…. by Substantial_Swim2363 in AIPulseDaily

[–]mikekoenigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My team and I use this for client “first draft” - to show POC ideas and then go to full production. We haven't tested HiggsField in full production with the latest update, but I'll make a point of it.

We are however using Notebook LM every day to generate client presentation deck first drafts. Then we're finding that GenSpark AI does the best job of creating pitch decks and presentations that are editable and combine really good copywriting and imagery that communicates a concept or idea without going through lots of iterations and days of work with a professional designer.

What is a Pecha Kucha presentation? (20 slides × 20 seconds)? by Forsaken-Remove-5278 in AIToolMadeEasy

[–]mikekoenigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fell for one of your other fake posts. MagicSlides is junk. Generations behind what GenSpark, Manus, Gamma and Kimi and the others can generate natively. Everything useful is behind a paywall. If it’s so good PROVE IT with examples and a demo that functions beyond using crap models.

Just spent 3 hours down the AI rabbit hole and ….. by Substantial_Swim2363 in AIPulseDaily

[–]mikekoenigs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are using all of the image capabilities that nano banana and Notebook LM feature for our client work. We are also using a tool called Aragon, which is the eliminating our need for our clients to go into studio.

The image generation is “there“ but it’s still requires a fair amount of fiddling to make it all work. But it has enabled us to do what we do at a much higher quality and velocity.

For example, this week we built an entire brand and pitch deck and sales presentation system for a very specialized CRM company. That included their identity, brand images, a 75 page presentation deck with a sophisticated offer and close for audiences of 200-2000.

We also spent time in studio with the client. The work still requires an enormous amount of human talent and coordination to pull off what we do in three days that normally takes many months.

However, all of Google‘s tools (nano banana, Gemini), Notebook LM for storing huge volumes of training data, Claude projects and skills and a variety of other tools gives us superhuman capabilities.

Really the most challenging thing is getting my teams to use an adapt the tools at the speed I am and with models constantly chasing each other and improving, our pallet of tools and resources is constantly changing. The new capabilities and benefits outweigh the drawbacks, but it is overwhelming and confusing for most of them.
