Fast Hours.

Jack Butcher built Visualize Value one black-and-white diagram at a time. He talks with Drew Brucker and Rory Flynn about what happens when the feed asks for something different every time he posts. Rory’s example is a talking AI yeti that had about two weeks in the sun.

Jack Butcher traces Visualize Value from agency pitch decks to a daily diagram series. The conversation covers pattern interrupts, social media discovery, the Google Veo 3 talking-yeti trend, and creative judgment. Jack Butcher also describes using Claude, ChatGPT, and Codex in daily creative work.
