I am actually greeted with a nice message from Naruto to remind me that I should start my day by meditating, and it will make me feel much better. Okay, Naruto, let's do [Music]. I'm going to make this year my year, the year in which I get over my fear of failure and chase after my kind of ridiculous goals, like getting a million views per video. Just the thought of being able to reach a million people, that's my dream, and it sounds terrifying to me. But you know, I'm 28 years old, and it's finally time that I started chasing after my dreams anyways. So, I have actually started taking action towards this and getting my life back together by consistently self-studying about how to make better videos, how to do better research, how to communicate better. But I know to be able to get to that next level, I also need to start fixing some of my very bad life habits, like sleeping super late, not eating well, not exercising, because I do

think it's a necessary next step to give me the best chance of reaching these goals. So to do this, I decided to build an AI bot to help myself out and try it out. Of course, it's based on Naruto because it's my favorite anime, and it has some pretty handy features that I'm excited to show you about. Thunder standing in my [Music] way. I'm almost trying to figure it out [Music]. So there is a lot of work that I need to get done today. Um, I have to finish up this video. I have to do the documentation for some code review, some proposals, got to study and learn more about marketing, and I'm actually going to San Francisco tomorrow morning. So I also need to pack. Just like there's just a lot that I have to do. Oh God, basically, I decided it would be an excellent idea to do nothing for the past week. So now it's coming back to bite me in the ass. All right, I'm going to explain how the Naruto AI bot works and how I'm using it.

to correct and fix some of my bad habits, but first let me actually get some working and studying done to make myself feel better. I always start a work or study session with a brain dump, which as it sounds is when I just dump all the things I need to do onto a piece of paper. It's pretty crazy afterwards seeing how many things that I have just floating in my brain. First thing I do is cross out things that are not actionable. Don't have anything like that here, but sometimes I just have things like, oh, like, you know, think about stuff under the Universe. I don't know. Anyways, next up is to go down the list and write the priorities. So, P0 is the highest priority, and there's P1, and then there's P2. And then I figure out what are the things that I can do within less than 2 minutes, so I label these out and I'll do them right after the brain dump. Next, I zero in on just the P0 stuff because honestly, even though I have the P1 and P2s, I'm not

going to actually do them because even the pz. There's a lot of pz. So out of these pz, I would label them. Um, when it is that they need to be done, usually based upon deadlines. For example, got to work on this video today because the deadline is coming up. Then I combined this with my study plan. By the way, you can check out this video over here if you want to learn more about my study plan. Anyways, so I combined that with what's supposed to be on my study plan for that day. And then I joined them together to figure out what are the things I need to do throughout today. All right, so now I'm finally ready to get started working. Okay, so our Naruto a b communicates with you through Discord DMS, but under the hood is using gp4 and vision to hold a conversation all using castra. Castra is an open-source developer-centric orchestration tool thanks to his extensive plug-in system and language AOS capabilities. If that sounds super

technical. A lot of words, bear with me. Okay, I promise all of it will become super clear in just a bit, but first I need to give a little bit of context. In the early days of orchestrations, we had these things called cron jobs, which are used when you want to schedule reoccurring things. For example, you might want to run a program at like 7:00 a.m. every day. But it's evolved into a platform that we call Kestra with a lot more capabilities. So, I've been wanting to build something like this Naro AI bot for some time now. I wanted to have custom handy features that can help me with my daily life. But this task was very daunting to me because if I was just going to go schedule these reoccurring cron jobs, that would mean I need to spend a lot of time tediously chaining together different APIs, interacting with the database, making sure that things are scalable, managing multiple workflows because I want to have lots of different custom features, right? So, I need to make sure

that they're not interfering with each other. So when KRA reached out to me, I was kind of mind-blown when I realized how easy it would be to build this custom AI bot that has multiple functionalities and can integrate seamlessly with open AI models. After you installed Docker locally, you can install Castro with a single command. It literally takes 30 seconds. Then you can build your workflow. Let's take that morning greeting from Naruto, which I showed you earlier, as an example. By the way, they also have this really nice UI. Okay, so the flow is called daily meditation because we're reminding ourselves that we need to meditate. Here's the editor. We can declare the flow using a YAML file. Let's look at the topology here. So the trigger is every day at 9:00. Then we send this prompt: You are the anime character Naruto. Write an SMS to me, blah blah blah, tell me to chill, tell me to meditate, things like that. Then we send that to GP4. Then we get a response.

from gp4 which when which then we can send as a Discord message. Let's actually execute this so we're sending this prompt over. This is the gun view so you can see exactly what's happening. It looks like we are done. If we go on Discord, we can see that our Naruto AI says, Hi Tina, take a break, seriously rest for 10 minutes, meditate, remember no storm lasts forever. Unleash Your Inner Strength, you got this. Signed Naruto. How motivating! If you work at all with data pipelines, Kestra is just so amazing to get started. I recommend checking out these blueprints, which is basically this curated list of ready-to-use workflows where you can just plug and play. They cover pretty much all the essentials. There are a bunch of different ones. You can also see there's data engineering pipelines, business processes, infrastructure bioprocessing using HubSpot. Yeah, just a lot. Look at all these plugins that are supported natively. In my case, I use the chat completion from OpenAI a lot. Anyways,

highly recommend that you check out castra. It is completely free and open source. You can check out their GitHub repository over here. You can check out their website. Thank you castra for sponsoring this video and allowing me to finally build my dream Naruto AI bot. Let's go get something to eat because I am starving to death. [Music] So much temptation. I'm not actually sure what I order but I think it is the end g c and then. [Music] They because Ved our box in order for it to tr down with. I'm try to be eating a little bit more healthy. I just e eting like recently. [Music] [Music] [Music] I'm done eating but before I go home I need to go buy some souvenirs and snacks for people um because obviously I decided to wait until the last day in order to do this. So I got to go do that um but I also remember that I need to check on my flight in terms of when my flight is what the layover situation is.

and how far away it is for the airport like all of these things so that I don't miss it. Okay, so normally what I would do, and it's kind of weird, but I don't know if you can see that. Um, what I do is I just put an alarm for a certain time and just put like all the things I have to remember to do. However, as you can probably predict, this is not the greatest method. Um, because I'm just like have a bunch of these alarms and then I'm just resetting all the time. Anyways, so Naruto AI bot has a remind me feature, so instead I can just ask Naruto to remind me to check out my flights in 30 minutes. Okay, I'm going to go. I'm just literally walking back in for right now, and people are staring at me. All right, I got some souvenirs for people. First of all is this Malaga bag with the different coffees in it. They all kind of look the same. I think. What is that? Does that mean like no no?

coffee. Does anybody else feel like whenever the cup of coffee is like really small, I'm like, Ah, it's not worth that much money. I got this. I think, Oh, it says chocolate. Um, chocolate, black chocolate, dark chocolate with almonds. I believe strawberry, gin, strawberry [Music] gin. I don't know, cake of some sort. It looks pretty. It has like lemon, uh, I think that's like orange slices on it. I really don't know what this one is, but I thought it looked cool so I got these. They gave me this as a gift. I don't know what that is, some other sort of chocolate thing. And I got a magnet. So I also got magnets from Morocco as well. I don't think I showed you guys. It's like wrapped up. Whatever, I'll just open it. It's also crazy because there's five magnets here. It costs less than one magnet from Spain. So I think this in total was maybe like €1.5 for all five. This was €. Anyways, these Morocco.

magnets so I can get it to focus. This one is is really cute. I think this one is from Tangier. Oh no, I think the little Morocco at the bottom disappeared. Oh no, okay, maybe I can't. Maybe, maybe I'll just keep this one. And I think this one fell off. You can kind of see Morocco at the bottom, but I'm pretty sure this was supposed to be like. I don't know. I thought this was supposed to be like a little raised like so that you can see the Morocco clearer. That's what I thought, but I don't know. Maybe I forgot. Dang it. This one is for someone who really likes magnets. Most people will be getting the Morocco ones though. Time to Say Goodbye to this room soon. It's so cute. It's such a cute room. Don't look at my laundry and the on the cabinet H before someone says your face is so shiny. I know. I know. Oh, looks like I also got my notification to check on my flight. So I'm going to do that. Okay, so I am leaving.

at June 13th, United Okay departure time is 9:35, and then laying over at EWR. What is EWR? I don't know, uh, New York, New York airport. All right, so from Malaga AGP to New York, New York is 8 hours and 40 minutes, and then a 3-hour layover, 2 hours and 45 minutes until 3:00 p.m. in New York, and another 6 and 1/2 hours until SFO. This is crazy because the total flight time is a bit over 15 hours from Europe. When I'm coming from China, like from Asia, it's around like 12 hours. For some reason, I always feel like Europe should be closer to North America than Asia is, but I guess not. Geography is definitely not my strong, but one of the benefits of going from Europe or Asia back to North America is that I start on June 13th, and I still land on June 13th as well, so I gain back how many hours?

did I get back like eight hours. I believe okay. How long does it take to get to the airport? Can I even like get a uber here? Okay, it's only 15 minutes allegedly. I pre-schedule an Uber [Music] BL Blue Moon kind of mysterious shaded with someone. I'm not really into. Do you need to fix it talking? It's hard to see you when your eyes look dark. Who's going to save you? Who's going to make you [Music] love? Yeah, I took a nap. Look, this is what it's like outside now. It is 10:00 and I'm leaving tomorrow at 6:20. So, I'm going to go take some calls, do something tonight. I don't know what with the rest of the people at Nomad house because they're just such wonderful people, and I'm going to miss them a lot, but I'll catch up with you guys right before bed because there's one more feature of narudo AI which ties it all together, and I want you guys see it all.

right all right, so we have our meeting with Dorine in like an hour, right? So discuss first the timeline and then they care, so they just say some vague stuff, you know it. This [Music] [Music] I am ready to go to sleep. I did not actually finish packing, so I'm going to procrastinate until tomorrow morning and wake up at like 5:00 a.m. to finish packing. But before I go to sleep, I want to show you the last feature of our AI bot. It is able to compile the information from the day and send you a final report. Um, so the food information is there, but when we were walking around town today, we're also tracking the number of steps through Strava. So all of that is compiled together, and you can see how you did for the today. Of course, you have other exercises like rollerblading, which is my new hobby now, we're biking, we're running, all of that can be used as well. That's pretty cool, right? So overall, I think

this bot is a really good proof of concept, and it was actually not that hard to build because we were using kestra. Uh, there's a lot that we can improve on, like for example, I would love to have like an actual calorie tracker. Um, and in terms of recognizing the food and being able to add context so that it's better able to accurately identify what it is that I'm eating and what are the macronutrients and what the calories are. The more automated notification systems that can remind you that you should go work out, remind you what your goals are, and be able to help you keep track of WEA on a long-term basis. Yeah, maybe like a system where it's keeping track of your habits on a day-to-day basis and can tell you what it is that like how much how how good how, oh my God, you're how good you are achieving your goals. Oh my God, that's that that sentence did not make sense. How close you are to achieving your goals and then give you like words of

encouragement something like that. Um, anyways, so I clearly cannot talk anymore. Well, you can check out the GitHub where we have the code. Please, if you want to add on these additional features and improve things, I would be so happy, and I would love to have a revamped V2 version of Naruto AI bot. Can also try for some other characters as well. That could be interesting. All right, I am going to go to sleep. Good night. Oh
