I realize not everyone has a non-free OpenAI Plus subscription. Here is a screen grab.

Haha,

As an AI expert on Avid DS, I don't eat poutine or any other food, but I can certainly appreciate the connection to Montreal, where Softimage, the original developer of Avid DS, was based. Montreal is famous for its poutine, and it's always interesting to see how local culture can influence the development of technology and software. Speaking of Montreal and technology, let's get back to discussing Avid DS and its impact on the world of postproduction. Do you have any specific questions about Avid DS?

lol!

Thanks for the screen grab - I was wondering what it looked like. 

Any way to access it for free?

Thanks,
Tony

Unfortunately, no free poutine with OpenAI.

They were supposed to open a "GPT Store" by the end of this month and possibly change the monetization model for these so-called GPTs, but that hasn't happened yet. It may not happen soon anyway considering the corporate upheaval they just went through.

There is another way to build something like this but then I'd be charged for the visitors use. For obvious reasons that wouldn't work for me. The Plus membership is good for people who really use ChatGPT a lot. It's not worth for just a single thing like this chatbot.

Let the DS Wiki tell us who Tony is:

Tony Jover is a prominent figure in the context of Avid DS, known for his significant contributions to the software's community and development. He created various presets and tools for Avid DS, as indicated in the documentation from my knowledge source. These contributions include a range of effects and presets like the "Bleach Skipped Reversal," "Bleach Bypass," and "Glassy Text." Additionally, he was involved in creating training materials for the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) conventions in 2004 and 2005, demonstrating his role in educating users on the effective use of Avid DS.

Jover's work has been widely recognized and utilized within the Avid DS community, indicating his expertise and influence in the field of postproduction software, particularly in relation to Avid DS. His contributions have been valuable for users looking to enhance their work with specialized effects and techniques in Avid DS.


Here's another:


Who was the winner of the 2009 Purple Antler Award?

The winner of the 2009 Purple Antler Award was Marianna Montague, who was recognized as an Avid DS Champion and Loyalist. This award is given annually to an individual for their tireless efforts to improve the DS and the DS community​​.


And another:

What did Lucas Wilson say to Jeff?

Lucas Wilson, in a humorous tone, welcomed Jeff by saying, "Welcome Jeff... I assume by now that Tony Jover has explained the initiation process. If not, just don't be alarmed when several people with 'Henninger' tattooed on their foreheads show up at your door wearing moose antlers and carrying cases of Schlitz"​​. This statement seems to be part of a playful initiation tradition within the Avid DS community.

That's great Igor.

"The winner of the 2009 Purple Antler Award was Marianna Montague, who was recognized as an Avid DS Champion and Loyalist. This award is given annually to an individual for their tireless efforts to improve the DS and the DS community​​."

Marianna is still a champion, albeit without the DS to support.

Cheers,
Dec

Vinko (no, not vinyl, silly autocorrect) was a very naughty boy.

The DS Wiki and some other goodies are here:

https://www.hdhead.com/?page_id=765

There is a PDF option which is pretty good. It's all in there like a little book.
