AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical

This week... the OpenAI lawsuit forces Elon Musk to open source Grok, AI makes it into the State of the Union, Electronic Arts says AI makes it more “efficient” & a cool new Midjourney update.

There’s also a very scary product that’s bringing Marilyn Monroe, Jack Nicklaus and other dead celebrities back to life with AI, some big data drama between Stable Diffusion and Midjourney, weird elder care AI dolls from Korea and Pika Labs has added sound effects! Pewpew!

AND THEN... an interview with AI EDU CEO Alex Kotran about the challenges of getting our schools to recognize how AI will affect teachers and students lives going forward.

And in a very personal AI co-Host segment, Gavin and Kevin are joined by Gavin’s second dog Ollie who AI has given a voice to and he has some significant things to say to Gavin. SOME VERY SIGNIFICANT THINGS.

It's an endless cavalcade of ridiculous and informative AI news, AI tools, and AI entertainment cooked up just for you.

OpenAI vs Elon, Anthropic's Claude 3 Is Great & AIs Debate Toilet Paper | Ep47

This week... Elon Musk sues OpenAI, Anthropic’s Claude 3 is the best LLM we’ve used, Google’s Sergey Brin knows they screwed up & AI tax bots gone very wrong.

Plus, Gavin dives into text-to-image newness with Ideogram 1.0, Kevin shows off Dust3r which does simple 3D modeling, another dancing robot and a group of hackers takes on Humane’s AI pin.

AND THEN...it’s the return of the AI For Humans AI Debate!

We pit OpenAI’s GPT-4 against the newly released Claude 3 and the results will both surprise and, dare we say, SHOCK YOU TO YOUR CORE.

This week’s AI co-host is one of our two debaters, Dr. Cornelius “Corny” Quckenbush, who has come to take on GPT-4 and also tell us of his deep love of rubber ducks.

It's an endless cavalcade of ridiculous and informative AI news, AI tools, and AI entertainment cooked up just for you.
