In this episode, we were joined by Tom Lawrence of Lawrence Systems and CNWR IT Consultants. He was on the show over a year ago, and his YouTube channel has just kept growing since then. In fact, it’s become so successful that he’s merging his business with CNWR so he can continue to focus on the YouTube channel while CNWR manage the business projects.
Recently, Meta launched Threads and Tom shared his take on the various social networks and how he uses each one.
Finally, Tom talked about how he uses AI like ChatGPT to help him manage his business.
Bob and Randy played around with ChatGPT and Bob got it to generate this poem:
In Detroit’s vibrant heart, a celebration did ignite, Randy Walker’s 40th birthday, shining ever so bright. Amidst the city’s rhythm, where dreams intertwine, Tocororo awaited, a venue so divine.
The night air was filled with excitement and cheer, As friends and loved ones gathered, drawing near. Randy, a soul adored, a beacon of light, Guiding others with kindness, a true delight.
At Tocororo’s threshold, the ambiance embraced, A tapestry of laughter and joy interlaced. The melodies of Motown danced through the air, Celebrating a milestone, a life lived with flair.
The walls adorned with memories of days gone by, Each photograph a testament, reaching for the sky. From humble beginnings, Randy had soared, Touching countless lives with the love he poured.
In the dimly lit room, candles flickered with grace, Illuminating the journey etched on his face. Friends raised their glasses, toasts filled with cheer, Honoring Randy’s presence, a treasure so dear.
The aroma of delectable cuisine wafted in the breeze, Tickling taste buds with flavors that pleased. From soulful barbecue to savory delights, Every bite a testament to culinary heights.
The laughter echoed, resounding like a symphony, As stories of shared adventures unfolded with glee. From youthful escapades to wisdom’s embrace, Randy’s path had intertwined with every trace.
A live band struck up a vibrant tune, Swaying bodies beneath the luminescent moon. Feet tapped to the rhythm, hearts beating in time, Celebrating Randy, a friend so sublime.
As the night waned on, memories etched in hearts, Randy’s spirit shone bright, never to depart. With gratitude and love, the celebration drew near, For forty years of existence, cherished and clear.
And so, in Tocororo’s embrace, Detroit’s soul did sing, A testament to friendship and the joy it brings. Randy Walker’s 40th birthday, a moment held tight, In the tapestry of time, forever alight.
