Building & learning in public

Burned way too many credits getting a whole terracotta army to bow to an empress.

Full LibTV workflow below, prompts included, plus the mistakes that cost me most.

Next up: who pays for AI video like this. Follow along.

AI music videos are getting out of hand.

@zeromarkapp Still early. The first few calls already show a pattern. People panic about losing speed more than quality.

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

Early GTM has a different job than people think.

Before product-market fit, GTM finds the must-have. It talks to users every day. It learns who would panic if the product disappeared.

Distribution comes after. Hire GTM early to find the buyer, then to reach more of them.

I'm talking to users now. If you work in AI, e-commerce, or marketing, my DMs are open. Show me your video workflow and I'll share how I can help.

Growth Marketers are the most valuable hires in all of tech right now.

The requirements are:

> must be under 23 years old
> chronically online
> understands how to engineer virality
> proficient in AI tools and GTM automation

If you check these boxes, you have a skill set that companies are paying $500K+ a year for.

If you want to get into YC, don't focus on getting into YC. Focus on building stuff and understanding your users. That's what gets you into YC.

From "I want a video like this" to "here's mine."

I gave @hypitai the launch film for @claudeai Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2. It made my own version.

Smarter Claude, better Hypit. That's the future I want.

[Claude @claudeai]

Introducing Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2, designed to tackle the most daunting technical challenges.

They’re capable collaborators on ambitious projects in many fields, and show improvements in areas like coding, reasoning, and vision.

@Strength04_X @hypitai everyday products disappear in a pack shot. they need to be the hero of the scene

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@Ho_Neyy_ @hypitai gadget ads nail the reveal and then wander. building the rest around that moment is the real work

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@only__amelia @hypitai picking the reference is the hard part for a new collection. which brand's ad would you start from?

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@thisismariaa25 @hypitai a kitchen tool sits in a drawer until the demo makes it feel necessary. that's the whole ad

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@sophiaparkerr_ @hypitai most fashion refs stay in a still. the ad only works if that feeling survives the cuts

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@bigZUKO_ fair call. the product should stand on its own. if you run a winning ad through it i'd love your notes on where higgs still wins

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@AIwithNatalia @hypitai most gaming gear ads look calmer than the product. the ad should feel like the first match

the best tip in the video: agents make bad ads from scratch.

feed them thousands of ads that already won. then score every frame. under 8 out of 10 goes back for a redo.

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

the agent ad system in this video has 3 layers.

1. data: pipe your analytics into one warehouse. the agent reads from there.
2. access: the agent writes to the facebook and google ads apis. it never reads from them.
3. tools: give it image, voice and video apis to make the ads.

that's the whole setup.

CRACKED MARKETING 101

Watch AI agents ship 100+ static ads, make UGC videos for $4 that used to cost $500 and upload everything

Here's the ENTIRE system step by step (and ALL of the skills):

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

the $4 ugc video:

script. voice clone. one real face. render at 480p. upscale. fix wrong words. add captions.

1080p costs $14 a clip. 480p plus upscale costs about $5.

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@TaliaAariz @hypitai reference → product → variations is the whole thing. curious which kind of ad you'd clone first?

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@Just_sharon7 @hypitai morning routine vs gym bag vs wind-down is such a good way to think about it. one product, three different buyers

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@itsshara_ai @hypitai "more than another packaging photo" is exactly it. the reveal is where most product ads win or lose

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@oggii_0 @hypitai everyone has that folder of saved ads they never do anything with. glad it's finally useful

[Lee Lin | AI @LeeLinAI123]

@ZoeyBennettAi fitness and outdoor is a great call. same product, totally different story in a gym vs on a trail
