Transcript excerpt

This guy built an app that makes your MacBook moan out loud when you slap it. Weirdly enough, it was inspiring because a lot of the AI software that I see being built is people taking things that already exist and just building them faster, whether it's a video game or some version of enterprise software. So I have to give him credit because his idea was original. There's an opportunity to make some productive macOS apps, and I have an idea that tier gonna research and cover in future videos.
