Ep159: The Ai Show
Episode Summary:
Today’s episode is all about Ai or Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT and how they can be used by podcasters and content creators.

The Confession:
The entire script of this episode was written by ChatGPT in a matter of minutes and I read it word for word.
My reason for creating this episode was to have a little fun while also teaching the basics of Ai that I think is a mystery to many (including myself), but it is certain to have an enormous impact on life as we know it.  If this is your first time hearing about ChatGPT, I encourage you to give it a try. To say it is impressive is an understatement.

Episode 159 Overview:
In this episode 159, I will discuss the benefits of using AI for podcasting, how ChatGPT works, and some of the ethical and social considerations that come with the use of AI.
What is Artificial Intelligence?What is Chat GPT?What are some benefits of using ChatGPT & Ai for podcasting in 2023?What are some of the ethical and social considerations that come with the use of AI in podcasting?Will Artificial Intelligence replace podcasters and content creators?What does the future of podcasting look like? 
The Script (Generated by ChatGPT):
What is Artificial Intelligence?
AI, or artificial intelligence, refers to computer systems that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as learning, problem-solving, and decision-making.AI systems are designed to mimic the cognitive functions of the human brain, such as perceiving, reasoning, and adapting to new situations.
There are several different types of AI, including:
1. Narrow AI: This type of AI is designed to perform a specific task or function, such as language translation or image recognition.
2. General AI: This type of AI is designed to perform a wide range of tasks and adapt to new situations, similar to how a human brain can learn and adapt.
3. Strong AI: This type of AI is designed to be indistinguishable from a human in terms of its ability to think and reason.
AI is being used in a variety of fields, including healthcare, finance, education, and transportation, to improve efficiency and automate tasks. 
However, the development and use of AI also raise ethical and social concerns, such as the potential impact on employment and privacy.


What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a chatbot that uses a natural language processing Ai model (NLP) and machine learning to generate human-like responses to user input. It is based on the GPT-3 language model developed by OpenAI, which is one of the largest and most advanced language models currently available. ChatGPT is able to understand human language inquiries and then generates appropriate responses.


Here is how ChatGPT works:
1. ChatGPT receives input from a user in the form of a message or question.
2. The input is processed by the chatbot's NLP algorithms, which analyze the words and phrases used and determine the intended meaning.
3. Based on this analysis, ChatGPT generates a response using its machine learning algorithms, which have been trained on a large dataset of human-generated text.
4. The chatbot's response is sent back to the user, who can then continue the conversation by providing additional input.
5. This process repeats until the conversa

Ep158: The Pilgrimage
This episode marks the 7-year anniversary of Mike Murphy Unplugged.  In this episode, I share the story of my pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago in France & Spain.

The goal of the podcast has always been to share what I am learning and doing to create the life I want to inspire others to create the life they want.

The Pilgrimage:
A Pilgrim or Peregrino is defined as a person who journeys to a sacred place often for religious or spiritual reasons.The Camino de Santiago (or, the Way of St. James) is a pilgrimage that can be traced back to medieval times. There are several different routes, but all lead to the tomb of the Apostle Saint James, in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The most popular route and the one documented in the movie The Way starring Martin Sheen is called the Camino Frances and it starts in St. Jean Pied de Port, France, and goes up and over the Pyrenees Mountains into Spain for 500+ miles to Santiago de Compostela, in the Galician Region of Spain.The scallop shell is the official symbol of the Camino de Santiago and most pilgrims have a scallop shell attached to their backpackAlbergues are hostels where pilgrims can stay for usually less than $15 and they often provide a communal meal (and wine, of course)All pilgrims must have a 'pilgrim's passport' in order to stay in alberguesPilgrims must get their passports stamped at least once per day at albergues, coffee shops, churches, places of interest, etc in order to get a Compostela (certificate) in Santiago.Over 300,000 pilgrims arrive in Santiago each year

Ep157: The 2022 Life Update Show
As Eleanor Roosevelt famously said, Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so today I simply want to say hello, reconnect and bring you up to speed on what I’ve been up to and what I have planned for 2022.
Episode Summary:
Hello and welcome to episode 157: The 2022 Life Update Show. 
It’s been a minute since I published an episode and I simply wanted to touch base and provide a quick life and business update. So, let’s go.
Life Updates 2022:
In early January of 2022, I had to move out of my little old beach cottage that I have been happily renting for over 11 years because it was sold (big bummer)I lost my full-time job of 3+ years at Simplecast/SiriusXM on the exact same day (also a bummer because of the bad timing)The good news is I found an awesome place for rent right across the alley from my old cottage and I love the new digs/studio.The other good news is that I can focus on Mike Murphy Co and making a living as a tutorial maker and content creator (which is my North Star)Quote:
“Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.”    - Eckhart Tolle 
Life Updates 2021:
The pandemic life was not fun, but Florida ignored it and my day-to-day routines did not change all that muchI  remained healthy throughout and never tested positive, but who knowsThe podcasting industry blew up during the pandemic which was a good thing, but I also started to burn out a littleI took a 7-week leave of absence in August of 2021  to recharge my mind and bodyTrip of A Lifetime
I walked from St. Jean Pied de Port, France (starting on Aug 26, 2021)I walked 15-20 miles per day for 40+ days over the Pyrenees and across all of SpainI ended up in Muxia, Spain  in early October and walked a total of 650 milesThe Camino life was simple and incredible The mantra I lived by was 'One thing to do and all day to do it (walk from Village A to Village B)'The to-do list was Walk, Eat, Drink, Sleep, Repeat.Resources Mentioned in Episode:

Introduction To Adobe Audition

In Today’s episode, I am going to read a simple, but practical checklist from a book that I recently finished to help or inspire you to create a positive change in your life
Summary:
The checklist I am going to share with you today is from the book, What to Say When You Talk To Yourself by Shad Helmstetter which is all about rewiring your brain with positive thoughts and self-talk.

What to Say When You Talk to Your Self

TIP
If you have an Amazon Alexa device, you can buy Kindle books on Amazon usually for $3.99 or less and use the Alexa app on our iOS Device and listen to your Kindle books like an audiobook. The voice of Alexa is a little robotic and not nearly as high of a production value as an Audible book, but it’s been a great discovery for me and I’m finding myself consuming a lot more books listening like I do podcasts at a fraction of the cost of Audible books.
Quote From Book:Whatever you put into your mind in one way or another, is what you will get back out, in one way or another
What does your self-talk sound like?Are you kind and positive and encouraging when you talk to yourself?
Do you beat yourself up over all the things on your to-do list that you can’t seem to get done or the projects that you never seem to have time for or the failed attempts at getting in shape, or the inability to get ahead financially, etc.
