A Feature I Didn't Expect | BrandStack Podcast - 001The transcript below was provided by Substack and cleaned up by ChatGPT.Hey Gang,Ross Brand over here on Substack and in your email inbox, depending on where you're taking a look at this.Wanted to let you know, first of all, you probably now know, but I want to let you know that I am on Substack. And while this is a writing platform and I plan to do and have been doing some writing lately on Substack, I'm also going to take advantage of their built-in audio and video tools.You can not only upload podcasts and host them right on Substack, but you can upload videos and have audio posts, video posts, podcasts with audio and video in them. The basic podcast post is an audio post. But you can post video as well. And you can also record, as I'm doing right now, you can record video natively. You can record audio natively right into the Substack platform.Subscribe on SubstackSo that's what I'm doing now, testing it out, seeing what the quality is like, what the experience is like recording. And so far, it seems pretty good. I did a brief test earlier and it seemed to come out okay.And so I thought I'd just come across in a manner in which you're normally used to seeing me. And as I said, I'm very much right now into publishing and working on books and self-publishing as well as digital audio and digital video.So I'm excited to be a part of Substack because it is a publishing platform and you have your own publication. Mine's called Brandstack Books and Broadcasts. And so I plan on doing a mix of long form writing, short form writing, roundups, but also audio and video podcasts and even live streams.There is a live streaming feature. In fact, that's what sort of tipped me over the edge to finally get started. I had created an account just for occasionally reading Substacks but I didn't do anything with it. Once I saw there was live streaming on the platform, I said, okay, this is the thing that's going to push me over the edge. Now it's time.I always wanted to set up a publication. I always thought it was a cool idea. I started a LinkedIn newsletter back in January or February, and I've been doing that fairly consistently across this year. I'm going to continue doing that, and I'll also publish it on Substack as well. But I'm doing a lot of pieces that will be exclusive to Substack.I'm also going to do audio and video, whether native to the platform like this is or I pre-record elsewhere and then upload, but they'll only be available on Substack, at least for a while. Then I may add them to one of my podcast feeds, or I may put some clips on YouTube, but I'm looking to do some long-form interviews as well as short interviews.Some videos will be 10 minutes, but some may be a deep dive like the one that's coming up with Kim Doyal, where we talked about everything from newsletters and email. We got into all the different newsletter platforms, of course, and why she loves Substack, but we also talked about the pivot she's doing in her business, just different philosophies and approaches to life and business. It's a fascinating conversation. Kim is such a great storyteller. She's been a pioneer in newsletter email marketing, what I call the second generation of it. It's not your grandparents' email newsletter from 2002 or 2003, but this has kind of been the revival of newsletters over the past few years, and she's been at the forefront of that. And we got into a lot of other stuff as well.She's been a success...

“Social media, if you want to be on all of the places, it's a best practice to have your voice be represented in those places. But, also, the content is representative for that place. People go to Instagram with an expectation, they go to YouTube with an expectation, they open up your audio podcast with an expectation of a more immersive experience. So there's different ways and there's different ways that you need to be putting your information in the post. And so you can't just take something that somebody gives you and just, that's the same content that goes into TikTok, into Instagram, into YouTube.” -- Chris Stone This episode's the second half of my Clubhouse chat with Livestream Universe founder Ross Brand, Cast Ahead's Chief Content Entrepreneur Chris Stone, Favorite Daughter Media president Sara Lohse, and Red Hat Media CEO Larry Roberts, as we talk about the future of social media content creation, the most useful AI tools currently available, and whether AI can help save a marriage.

(0:00:01) - AI Content Creation and PersonalizationAs the second half of our chat begins, the panelists share some of their less-than-ideal experiences with trying to coax ChatGPT into an authentic writing style. “I have never in my life said the word delve,” Sara recalls, “but ChatGPT wants me to ‘delve' into every topic.” We also take a question from John, who shares his experience with running a 100% AI podcast from start to finish, and Larry talks about his experience writing a hybrid-AI book and the process of crafting each chapter. “I think the exercise you're going through,” Larry says, “is what we as content creators need to do so that we understand these tools and we understand how these tools can complement what we're doing.”(0:08:36) - Maximizing AI in Content CreationChris adds his thoughts on the importance of human oversight when it comes to AI, and we discuss whether AI could eventually render human creativity obsolete. “I think everyone pretty much agrees here that using AI is something that we need to do,” Chris explains, “and I look at it more of like assistive intelligence or administrative intelligence.” We talk about the clerical work AI can handle for us while retaining our authentic voices. “I think everybody here,” Ross says, “and, and pretty much anybody who's competitive in this space, their biggest competitive advantage is themselves.”(0:20:01) - Content Creation Tools and StrategiesAs our talk comes to a close, Chris shares how AI can help us keep up with and customize our content across a range of social media platforms. “People go to Instagram with an expectation,” he explains. “They go to YouTube with an expectation. They open up your audio podcast with an expectation of a more immersive experience.” Finally, we take a question from a listener about the best AI tools currently available, and we ponder whether AI can even improve a marriage. “It can definitely help you write poems and happy anniversary sonnets,” Larry says, “and, I mean, it can make you sound and feel like you...

“People either have a vision of a Utopian wonderland out there, that we're going to create all this amazing stuff with AI, or, on the flip side, everybody thinks it's going to be a dystopian wasteland when we start using AI, and everybody's going to be out of work, and the robots are going to take over... And it's very difficult to find anybody that has that middle ground. But it's conversations like we're having here that's going to allow us to establish that middle ground. And as we continue to educate the public, and as we continue to expose these tools and teach people how to use these tools and let them know the limitations of these tools as they exist today, I think more and more people are going to become more and more comfortable with the integration of AI as tools and not replacements.” -- Larry Roberts Some discussions lend themselves to more than one perspective. That's definitely the case with sound in social media, and recently I had a Clubhouse room full of experts with a lot to say about it. They are Ross Brand, founder of Livestream Universe and author of the 100 Livestreaming & Digital Media Predictions series; Chris Stone, Chief Content Entrepreneur at Cast Ahead; Sara Lohse, President of Favorite Daughter Media and author of Open This Book: The Art of Storytelling for Aspiring Thought Leaders; and Larry Roberts, CEO of Red Hat Media and co-host of the Branded Podcast. Our round-table discussion covered a lot of information on sound in social media, as you would expect, but we also delved into how AI is shaping that landscape, for better and worse. It made for a fascinating and fun discussion, and I'm glad to be able to share it with you now.

Both those things really help – and I'd love to feature your review on future podcasts. (0:00:00) - Sound in Social MediaOur Clubhouse chat starts with introductions from each of our four panelists, and we focus on social media and the role sound plays in getting your message out. “Social media is interesting,” Ross says, “because sometimes you have to change it up as well, which kind of goes against some of the rules of sonic branding.” Chris tells us the simple secret to incorporating video in your audio brand, and Larry and Sara share their thoughts about machine learning and how important it is to keep pace with the growth of AI. “If we're not aware and we don't start making the adjustments we need to make this early in the game,” Larry notes, “we're going to wake up in 12 months and go ‘oh my gosh.'"(0:14:48) - AI in Audio Production DebateRoss discusses the AI tools he uses in his studio, and Sara outlines the difference between using AI to improve content versus creating it. “What I don't necessarily do,” she explains, “is use AI to the degree that some people do for content creation. I'll do it for ideas, but kind of like what was said before, it's still about those genuine stories.” We discuss the role that human stories and perspectives play in guiding AI content and the challenge of “AI proofing” the next generation. “I stress, with the people that I work with and myself,” Chris tells us, “to be excellent... at what...
