This week's episode dives into the rapidly evolving world of AI, starting with a hands-on look at OpenAI's impressive new image generation model. We explore its capabilities, from creative design prompts to potentially problematic real-world applications. The big question: can it finally dethrone Midjourney as the king of AI image creation? We share personal impressions and discuss how this technology is already impacting workflows, as highlighted by @realEstateTrent's experience generating concept designs for real estate development. It's another example of AI getting us 80% of the way there, offering powerful assistance rather than complete solutions, a point echoed by @forgebitz and @businessbarista regarding the current state of LLMs.
Beyond images, we touch on the broader AI landscape, drawing parallels between the current excitement around LLM-based chatbots and the internet browser and search engine wars of the early 2000s. Just as NVDA is the hot hardware of today, Cisco was the essential infrastructure of that era. We also examine the trend of "AI-powered" everything, with insights from @gregisenberg on the success of niche, outcome-focused AI applications. We also acknowledge the creative potential of AI, exemplified by @PJaccetturo's recent experiment using AI to reimagine the "Lord of the Rings" trailer in the style of Studio Ghibli, showcasing the dedication and resources being invested in exploring these new artistic avenues. Finally, we briefly touch on the advancements in AI video generation, referencing @EMostaque's thought-provoking question, and the ongoing competition within the tech giants.
