How they can set up their own executive assistant, head of marketing, chief financial officer. Basically, I want you to base to tell us the concepts behind all this. By the end of this episode, Remy, do you think you can do that?\n100% Greg. We're going to go through all the concepts that make up an AI agent.

And uh people are ready for this new type of classifier AI because we've been so used to just learning and using these LLMs which are slow they stream and I think uh as we'll cover today this AI is fundamentally different in so many different ways with quality speed and price that there are so many different usage applications for it that the possibilities are truly endless and It just becomes on the humans again about how creative you can be.\nCool. And I So I just have a few things I need from you because I haven't used Jev. I want you to give me the simplest possible explanation to Jev. I want you to ex give me like, you know, three or four insane use cases so that people can walk away from this episode with like productivity, making money, just like, you know, even boring use cases that could become, you know, $10 million businesses, $100 million businesses. And I just want you to put it all together, wrap it in a bow that people understand, you know, if they stick around to the end that they'll be able to understand why should they care about it.

So, I had my friend Vin and he clearly explains what Obsidian is, how to use it with Claude Code, how to set up these commands that really drive the most out of Claude and all the LLMs. And it's an incredible episode, like a really game-changing episode, because I think that people who understand how to use Obsidian and how to use Claude Code together, they're going to be able to live happier, healthier, and wealthier lives.

I want you to have an understanding of how you can use Claude Code and Obsidian as a thinking partner. I want you to have an understanding of how you can stop uh having to explain things to agents over and over again and just pass specific files in.

You have to go into the terminal and it's not fun for a lot of beginners. So Claude has come up with co-work and it's a brand new product that harnesses the power of Claude code in a UI that is simple that anyone could use that your dad can use, your mom could use. Hey, even you can use. So in this episode I brought on Boris, the maker of this product. I'm so excited that he shows you the best practices for how to use Claude Co-work and at the end how he sets up his Claude code to get the most out of it.

So Boris, thank you so much for coming on the show and I have one question for you. By the end of this episode, what are people going to get out of it?
