In this episode I go over a large amount of controversial topics with AI. I ask a ton of questions, and though they are left unanswered, I pack a considerable amount of conversation starters into a brief overview.

In this episode I explain what the heck I am trying to achieve with this podcast, which is to provide introductory information about generative AI topics in short and sweet episodes. I don't go too deep, but I plan to give enough information and tactics so that you can get started on your own. This episode covers ChatGPT and Midjourney, two of the most popular generative AI tools right now. ChatGPT generates text output and Midjourney creates image output. I run down how easy it is to start playing with chatGPT and give examples of some things you can ask it to do, then dive into how to set up and start using Midjourney to create images.
