AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical

Shownotes Transcript

Meta just launched an AI-powered social network and it’s way weirder than we expected. From voice assistants with emotional baggage to remixable AI selfies, we test Meta’s new AI app and talk about what it really means for the future of AI interfaces. VISIT OUR SPONSOR: https://molku.ai/) We also break down OpenAI’s GlazeGate, the update that made ChatGPT way too sycophantic, and why Sam Altman had to roll it back. Plus: new AI video tools from Runway and Higgsfield and a bizarre Reddit experiment where bots convinced real humans to change their minds. Also: robots walking through the desert, Duolingo’s AI-first strategy (and what it means for your job), and yes… Zuck as a centaur. ROBOTS ARE IN THE DESERT. ZUCK’S IN YOUR PHONE. IT'S A GOOD SHOW.
