This index collects the 5 AM uploads of the same launch video (one per channel, plus a short teaser) that were not yet listed in another AM how-to index. Deduplicated by watch ID across all AM how-to index pages (channel indexes alone do not count as how-to coverage). **Source:** local AM YouTube dump `youtube.jsonl` (academy / daily / main / tools channels; refreshed 2026-10-18 00:25 SAST). First written 2026-10-18 18:19 SAST with 5 videos. **YouTube was not crawled.** Titles and watch URLs below are taken from the dump as written. Videos were **not** watched. Every upload has a transcript in the dump: the tools, main and short main uploads have Arabic transcripts, and the daily and academy uploads have English transcripts. The summary is paraphrased from the English transcripts only, and the Arabic transcripts were only checked to describe the same steps. Nothing was invented to fill gaps. ## English dump titles (5 unique watch URLs) AM-channel uploads are framed as **AM training/support sources**. Each watch URL is a source. ### Using AM.CO.ZA knowledge in your own AI (all channels, 2026-09-15) Paraphrased from the English dump transcripts: - **The idea:** most people use AI apps to ask questions, but a general AI app gives vague answers about AM machines. AM built its own in-house AI over a long time on a large database covering its whole business, and AI Connect lets your own AI app use that knowledge. - **Try the test from the video:** in your usual AI app, ask a machine question, for example a DTF printer whose white ink prints after a head wash but fades after some distance. The video calls that answer somewhat vague. - **Connect your AI:** on any AM.CO.ZA website, click the **AI** button and choose **Connect your AI**. That opens 8i.co.za; click **AI Connect**, pick your favourite AI app and copy the prompt. - **Ask again:** go back to your AI app, paste the prompt first and then the same question. The video shows a much more useful answer, because the prompt gives your app direct access to AM's public knowledge. - **Ask AI:** you can also go to **Ask AI** and ask AM's own assistant anything, for example why a UV DTF printer does not print white, or the current price of the V-Smart 1660 mm contour cutting vinyl cutter. Quote prices from the live answer or product page, never from this video. - **Machine availability:** the video says you can track machine availability across branches, machines on the way to branches, and machines still being made or on a ship at sea. Always use the live stock feed for this. - **AI Builder:** AM also offers an AI Builder so you can use the public knowledge base to ground, fine-tune or further train your own assistant. The video says more on that will follow in another video. - **The short main-channel teaser** (aub9FQuzRyQ, Arabic transcript) is a shorter cut of the same message: click the AI button on any AM.CO.ZA site to use AM's assistant, use your own AI app with AM's knowledge, or build your own assistant, then follow the link to the full video. | Date | Channel | Transcript language in dump | Title (from dump) | Watch URL (source) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2026-09-15 | tools | Arabic | Use AM.CO.ZA Knowledge in Your AI with AI Connect | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVgOWMsSQrI | | 2026-09-15 | daily | English | Use AM.CO.ZA Knowledge in Your AI with AI Connect | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yj0SGn2kSRw | | 2026-09-15 | academy | English | Use AM.CO.ZA Knowledge in Your AI with AI Connect | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPdQgtqS_dM | | 2026-09-15 | main | Arabic | Use AM.CO.ZA Knowledge in Your AI with AI Connect | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwXKvIVi9t8 | | 2026-09-15 | main | Arabic | Use AM.CO.ZA Knowledge in Your AI with AI Connect | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aub9FQuzRyQ | ## Related public pages (no product SKU table) AI Connect, Ask AI and AI Builder are services, not machine SKUs, so this index does not list Buythis product SKUs.

Channel indexes listing the same watch URL do not count as how-to coverage. - The AI Connect prompt itself changes over time; always copy it fresh from the AI Connect page rather than from this index. - Older screens in the video may differ from the current site; follow the current AI Connect, Ask AI and AI Builder pages. - Live stock and prices are never stored here; check the live stock feed and product pages.
