Today's experiment: I tried creating an AI Avatar from Vidyard (I stumbled upon their integration when I went to make a different video). Soon AI will be a natural part of every workflow. And tools that don't incorporate genAI capabilities will feel like they are missing something. In this experiment, I created a script in ChatGPT with the prompt, "Create a script that can be read that discusses the best things about visiting Whistler, keep it casual and upbeat. Mention that it is an all season resort. Maximum 1000 characters." I ran a second prompt asking to refine the script for a global audience and set context about where Whistler is located. Vidyard does have a script tool built in FWIW. I think this could be a process that is easily scaled to either add videos to existing websites or social feeds. And yes, the video itself is kind of boring, I just had a static page behind, but I think it could have easily been a demonstration. 🤖

Nice one John. This is cool! Is this via HeyGen? I’m seeing quite a bit of this stuff pop up in software demos and walk throughs which is also a good use case and certainly like it as an accessibility option for some web users with visual impairment etc. Video is absolutely the best and definitive storytelling tool marketers have available to them but the reality is it is done pretty appallingly or not at all on most travel websites currently. It’s bonkers actually. It’s not that people aren’t creating videos, they are! But then just sending them off to rented space on social and leaving their own media still and mute. 🤷♂️

Awesome experiment! It’s wild to see how fast AI is advancing—who knows what it'll look like in six months? And honestly, with some digging, there's probably something out there already that could do this even better. I love how you mentioned workflow. It’s one thing to experiment, but the real game-changer is figuring out how to use it to make our work more efficient and effective across an organization.

Nice one John! Hey Michael Litt I usually see you or one of the team posting about your integrations which are always awesome but it was nice to see my buddy John stumble onto one of yours. I still remember your journey back from the valley and speaking together at Canada 3.0 all those those years ago and so pleased to see your continued success. Keep leading the way here in Canada and globally!
