Alright, hey there. This introduction to Anthropic's Claude family continues. I have
here this Claude PowerPoint, so the good old Microsoft workhorse now gets
this kind of currently world's best
AI interface. Here you can have it do these
Microsoft's OpenAI gadgets too. So, um, let's put here for example this
summary in the background and you can prompt it. But this is a bit
of that OpenAI-style thinking, that this isn't very strong. This whole Neuvottelija deck is
actually made, updated, from my old visual material
from a commercial partnership, and indeed at the same time I did this whole, like,
visual identity change, and there, actually, is my, um, thumbnail image, so it's
still the old color scheme. That'll probably need updating too then. So if you're now
not completely in love with it, then I'll maybe keep it. And this was, I did
this in the final stage of the demo, so I asked this AI to make me new
thumbnails for these, for YouTube, and also then, like, on these fancier
channels it's always been on too, so Spotify, these little square ones too. And this took
a while. Then I asked the AI to actually run this Claude in
PowerPoint, even though you could run this in plain Claude Code or from wherever
else, this network analysis, that I have about 10,000 LinkedIn followers
and 7,835 first-degree contacts. And I was
a bit surprised. I actually have the most CTOs, that is, check officers
CEOs there are almost as many too, 1,976, board chairs 335, and CFTA
only 177, though there now the finance directors aren't included, so
that would, like, spread out from there, and likewise the strategy directors and
then there are already other nice people in there too, HR bosses, and then there's general
professional board members, of which I surely have
hundreds and so on, but this I did, um, with plain PowerPoint.
Claude's PowerPoint. Then this episode world here, this used to be my
kind of, like, episode carousel, that is, these thumbnails, but this then
PowerPoint — in Claude's PowerPoint's opinion something like this would be, like, more stylish
textually. Then here's this commercial partner Kanatu,
a marvel topic pricier than diamond, and a bit like how those were carried out. So,
in practice, so in about three weeks, maybe even two,
weeks you can get from the decision to do this kind of long commercial
partnership with me out the door. And then the other one is Fortum, this was really fun,
this in-between thing there, with whom I then also went, like, as a private individual,
over to Omaha to watch Warren Buffett.
Then here's this general slide, it hasn't changed that much, but why people
usually order these commercial partnerships and so on, well of course
you get really good visibility in Finland and on really many platforms.
And then these key figures, that is, 40,000 subscribers, on Tube and podcast, and 7
million now across all platforms at least this stuff has been watched.
Then, um, the partnership, this — this was actually funny, this kind of, um,
kind of like a starter package, that is, basic, that is this kind of ad. There's actually an error, by the way,
should be to- 500 grand. Let's fix that then,
there. And then indeed there this premium package is this, this, um, then
commercial partnership in a long episode and strategic partnership. These now
aren't there yet, but, um, I could very well do them. Yes.
Then here it is like this. This should be changed into logos. Here, by the way, I noticed that
this isn't very good at handling logos or images. So it likes for them to be, like,
dropped in there yourself, at least at this stage, so you have to, like,
look into some kind of system, since these could, like, for example into a separate folder
drop these logos with some script and then do it. But this is a pretty
snappy revamp. Right, right, so let's go and show how this
was carried out. Yeah, so here's my old visual identity, which I think is pretty nice,
but here you can, like, see this typical old-guy kind of thing. Now I put
in the prompt here, that is, make this better and modern, and then, um, I didn't give
much context on in what way better, and then there
earlier you saw that this Claude Cowork, which is now, um, the workhorse here,
so I had to choose, um, one file folder for it, where it's allowed to
save these intermediate files, and quite messy stuff. And now cut from this
a bit of time, so it has created these first pages, and it cheated a little in that,
it picked out, um, pages that needed images. And
here we'll see later why, because in this version of Claude PowerPoint
the image handling is a bit weak. So you have to separately over there
go do it in Claude Code or Claude Cowork instead, but a pretty nice
basic layout. Then let's go over to the, um, Claude Code side, and here actually Claude
made with chat this kind of so-called MD file, Markdown file, in which I
asked it to think a bit more deeply about what kind of this Sami
Miettinen Neuvottelija brand could be, and what it's then like
for example this visual identity, these shades of purple that I've now here
used over the years. And then it kind of, um, thought, thought then about this
what kind of setup there is, and went through all those episodes of mine. Here I've done
this one with Hoxhunt's Markus Hav, when we talked about AI. Top-level, there is
of these, my old layout. And then I noticed that, well, these should
actually be given as color codes, hex codes, these colors of mine, and I asked
it to then dig them out from my samiettinenskills.md, where I've
defined these color palettes, and from there it then digs them out and
then recommends this kind of, um, a certain kind of, um, scripting for how I
could make these images. And now we get to this, um, deck,
that was made there earlier, so now I asked it to change these color tones
to that, like, official one, and then, um, then I asked it to download from that, um,
files, and I also attached them. And here you then notice that
this isn't acceptable to Claude PowerPoint at this stage. So it —
it doesn't like them being put into that chat. And then here I approve,
adding slides, and dangerously always
allow — so this is exactly the kind of thing you shouldn't do as, like, a beginner.
So then if it were to ask later whether to add slides, then
it wouldn't ask me for any permissions. Well, this isn't very dangerous,
this kind of adding a slide. It now adds to this, without me asking,
thumbnails from these last three episodes, and then I also dropped this
LinkedIn data in there, that is, um, 7,800
first-degree connections, and then I have 10,000 of these followers. And now
then, um, these images at this stage have to, like, be dropped in here,
like, to be used in this PowerPoint space, so then it can
make them. I, like, thought that I could myself, like, embed
them into this myself, but it didn't go like that, even though it kind of hints at that. Don't
do it like this. I just noticed that I can, like, drop these images here
on top, like, and say, put them in there yourself. And from this now a bit
of credit is due, because it had to, um, check which image goes where
and put it in the right place. So here, um, here on the left side of the
screen are these YouTube icons, and then there's the Spotify icons. These kind of
squares, which I then decided, let's start making those too since, like,
big channels, because earlier I couldn't be bothered to add them manually,
but they get created there, like, semi-automatically.
And indeed now this LinkedIn contact list of mine has also been analyzed, and
excitingly I have the most CTOs, that is, Chief Technology Officers, 1,024, in this
first-degree network of mine. Then I noticed that, well, I can here edit
— edit it myself at the same time as this Claude PowerPoint is working, so of course you can
do other stuff in the meantime too, like walk the dog or something, but, um, this doesn't
like, break as such, if you edit it yourself at the same time. Of course you can
like, be doing the same thing that this Claude
PowerPoint is doing, then it might get in the way.
Right. Well but now then there came about, it first misunderstood, that this Martin
Paasi episode was the newest, so then I had to, um, then tell it,
that I read the new titles and stuff off the images, and then, um, the episode
numbers and texts the same way — indeed I myself manually move them over there
like, lower down, I think it looks a bit nicer, that left edge, and like this
this then came about, and then this does these kind of, like, green checkmarks so that
what — what succeeded and whether it went, went, like,
into the goal. Pretty nice, nice I think. Um, and then indeed when you look at this,
I'm quite satisfied with this — this basically took, like, only a day. There
the logos are missing from the last page, and indeed those should then, like,
be pasted in separately here, or otherwise put programmatically into some
folder and pushed in from there. Maybe I'll do that then
um, as a finger exercise, um, later.
Quite a nice, um, system.
Yeah. So I think, um, we can, like, wrap up here. So I think I'm
a pretty savvy user of this kind of AI. All these Office tools from Anthropic,
that is, Claude Cowork, runs nicely on Mac with certain databases.
Claude PowerPoint, which I've been demoing here, and Claude Excel, and then
of course Claude Code and Perplexity and Antigravity from Google, and all
the, like, possible, um, coding platforms are already getting pretty well
under control. And indeed I here at Translink Corporate Finance
am an investment banker, so there if you're, like, interested in selling a company
especially, my colleagues handle that, um, process-wise, but through
me you can definitely get in touch with them. Awesome that you've spent time watching this
or listening. Send feedback, my contact info is right there.
I like WhatsApp messages, and then
yeah, it'll help if you subscribe to this rebranded Neuvottelija channel.
So google Sami Miettinen, or
Neuvottelija, and you'll find the hundreds of episodes there. Thanks, and feel free
to send in suggestions on what else you'd like to learn about the AI world or
anything else really. Thanks. Bye
