AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical
12/14/23 • 77 min
This week... ChatGPT’s parent company OpenAI’s drama keeps going, AI works less hard in December, Elon Musk’s Grok AI is not good & new robots that can learn insanely fast.
Plus, Google Gemini’s troubles continue, we show off DemoFusion, an open source ‘up-rez’ competitor to Magnific.AI that fails spectacularly and an new character Rapid RonAI (who might be GoodGuyAI) runs us through some of the other headlines.
AND THEN...
It’s an A4H Interview with Tiktok Star Madeline Salazar who got famous using Adobe’s Generative Fill tool and made some incredibly inspired and hilarious Tiktoks that made a LOT of people very mad.
Oh and don’t forget our AI co-host this week, Madison Maximillian, the world’s first AI Medium. She speaks to the dead, gets them to tell us their secrets and also likes to be paid only in Fortnite Bucks.
It's an endless cavalcade of ridiculous and informative AI news, AI tools, and AI entertainment cooked up just for you.

We Got AIs Drunk For Thanksgiving | AI For Humans Ep33
AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical
11/22/23 • 30 min
It’s a day-early Thanksgiving special episode of AI For Humans, where we test three popular AIs (Anthropic's Claude2, Google's Bard & Pi) on how well they can give thanks and then asked a bunch of our other GPT-4 friends (including some AI celebs) what they were thankful for as well. And then... we gave a bunch of them Monster Milk, a unique and unusual concoction that has a strange and bewitching effect on AIs. Insanity ensues. WHOOP WHOOP.
There are no links in this show as it’s a one of those VERY SPECIAL episodes but it isn’t a clip show, it’s organic, original AI stuff for you our dear listener.

Buff Presidents, Google Will Crush ChatGPT? + AI Gordon Ramsay
AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical
06/29/23 • 58 min
Whoo boy, do we have a whopper of a show today.
In our demo, we use AI to clone Chef Gordon Ramsay & have him help us figure out the Grimace Shake meme and how he might prepare the "purple blob" for eating. It's an adventure in using ChatGPT to create an interactive character who's just a little off and trust us, it's funny. (Starts at 45:10)
Gavin's dumb thing of the week is making Buff Presidents after RFK, Jr's coming out party as a swole candidate, Kevin goes deep on DragGan which lets you stretch photos any which way you want as well as free text-to-video from Zeroscope.
In the news this week:
-- ChatGPT getting dethroned? Google (specifically Deep Mind) says it can take them down with it's new upcoming chatbot.
-- Deep Mind also released info on a Robocat, an AI algorithm that can help robots improve themselves without supervision (what?) and then a CMU professor releases VRB (Vision Robotics Bridge) which allows robots to hold a knife (oh no). This leads to another AI will kill us all discussion.
-- Marvel releases a new series on Disney+ with AI credits and *everyone* freaks out even though no human jobs were impacted.
***NEW SEGMENT*** We spin the Wheel of Jobs which lands on "landscaping and gardening" and discuss how these jobs will be impacted in the near and far futures. It's all good and serious we work hard on this so you'd better enjoy this and like the crap out of it. Oh, also subscribe if you know what's good for you.

Kevin explores the new Stable Cascade image model, Gavin goes deep on AI music from Suno, ElevenLabs is going to share revenue with voice model creators and did the AI superbowl commercials over promise? Yes, probably.
AND THEN... an interview with the Wall Street Journal’s tech reporter Joanna Stern about her viral Apple Vision Pro review, how she uses AI and a fascinating discussion about her latest story around the parents of the Parkland victims using AI to robocall politicians with AI versions of their children’s voices.
Oh and true juicy-exclusey as this week’s AI co-host is none other than Bard, who was just ‘released’ by Google this week. We dig into some of that backstory and find out exactly WHY they moved on from Bard. Guess what... IT AIN’T WHAT YOU THINK.

Welcome to 'AI For Humans,' where we turn complex AI concepts into digestible insights. Join hosts Gavin Purcell and Kevin Periera as we decode the world of AI, with a little help from our AI co-host, Gash. This episode uncovers AI-assisted fake news, explores AI companionship, and delves into the future of superintelligence governance.
Our conversation starts with a deep-dive into the disturbing trend of AI-assisted fake news, taking a closer look at the shocking fake Pentagon Explosion Market Manipulation case that took over Twitter and your newsfeeds this week. We'll arm you with the knowledge to identify AI-generated images and stay one step ahead in the digital landscape. Simultaneously, we'll explore the rise of AI companionship through Caryn Marjorie's AI girlfriend, discussing its profound societal impact and the ethical questions it raises.
From the realm of digital relationships, we step into the world of Adobe Firefly, Gavin's pick for the 'Dumb Thing We Did With AI This Week.' and attempt to construct the city of Seattle out of hot dogs. We follow this with a glance at the progress in robotic technology, featuring Halodi Robotics and Tesla Robot updates.
The episode reaches its peak as we discuss last week's pivotal meeting between US Government officials and tech giants, OpenAI and IBM. In the aftermath of this meeting, we delve into OpenAI's proposed governance of superintelligence.
