Exploring AI, content creation & digital marketing.

Sharing experiments, workflows and ideas on how AI transforms creativity.

Fun fact: The two people in this image interviewed me before, and it is quite rare for all of us to be together at the same time now.

Vickson Tan is currently focusing on expanding his MamaKuih 妈妈糕 business, while I am still with Exabytes.

Met Chen Chow Yeoh at Karnival Hebatan Perniagaan Malaysia, Stadium Batu Kawan, where he moderated "Cari Pelabur atau Bina Sendiri" with Chan Kee Siak (@Exabytes_MY) & Clarence (@easyParcel).

Key takeaway: Don’t overthink, take action and turn every crisis into an opportunity.

The @hellokitty x @godzilla_jp toy is taking Malaysia by storm right after the @McDMalaysia's drop! 🦖🎀

Are you aware that you can create free AI videos of up to 30 seconds every day in 720p using @Google Flow?

I have calculated that you can generate a 10-second video 3 times . The best part is that the 50 daily credits will reload every day.

Are you already aware of this?

After spending more than 110 million tokens and waiting for 2 hours 25 minutes, I can say that @typesafeai Jev is affordable if you already have a clear evaluation context and criteria.

I would say the System One Model, Jev, has its own strengths compared to other AI models.

Share a tip that will brighten someone else’s day.

It doesn’t need to be something huge.

Just one small thing, and you’ll see the people around you become better.

I passed the @Larksuite AI Fundamentals qualification.

The biggest takeaway is the "3-Layer AI Capability Architecture".

Many of us are still at the first and second stages of AI adoption, while the third layer, Agentic AI, is where AI teammates can autonomously handle tasks.

My takeaways from David Thian Thor Wei’s Merdeka War sharing, covering creative foundations, reference assets, AI video workflows and staying curious.

By chance, I managed to capture a Vespa convoy in Georgetown, Penang, with dozens, possibly even hundreds, of Vespas cruising through the city.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

AI Merdeka videos this year are everywhere, and some are really high quality.

But personally, I still believe the message and storyline matter more than visuals.

AI can create stunning visuals, but the ideas behind them still come from humans.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

Here is where I put the automation line:
If it follows written rules and the conditions are known, automate it.

I keep what moves. Something scheduled was fine when written, but the room changed by the time it went out. I never hand over the steering.

Automate what stays still.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

AI is faster. Task speed is not in doubt. But your day didn't get shorter.

Where did the time go? Save a coin a day with no jar to put it in, and you end up with nothing.

If a proposal takes an afternoon instead of days, did you close more deals? Track the result.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

I could ask AI to write this article for me, but I chose to write it myself.

Here is my reflection on AI, human skills and the future of work.

Do you have to say you used AI?

While the FTC and EU enforce new rules in 2026, ethically it’s about the promise, not the tool.

A product description claims nothing.

But "This is my view" claims quite a lot. Make it true or take it out.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

Does AI understand the words it just wrote? No.

But the risk isn't comprehension; it's commitment.

AI will happily write "same-day guarantee" because it sounds good.

3 things bind you:
1. Promises
2. Timelines
3. Admissions of fault

Audit for commitments.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

2 AI tools and you have to copy things across. Connecting them feels like the proper answer.

But if you only cross that gap a few times a month, stepping over it (copy/paste) costs nothing and never breaks. If you build a bridge (automation), you own it and have to maintain it.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

Are you prepared for the next big transition of AI into our world?

Here are some thoughts shared by @BillGates.

Some of them are already happening now.

AI search looks like Google with a chat box. But a step in the middle is the whole difference.

Finding things hasn't changed. AI just reads before you get there.

When it matters, ask whether the sources agreed. Then open two of them.

[Martin Tang @themartintang]

You’ve felt it, even if you couldn't name it. Everything reads the same lately.

This is AI slop. Content made to fill space, not to say anything.

Low cost just scaled the junk mail pile on your doormat.

Now, the one letter that matters goes in the bin.
