🛠️ From chaotic prompts to finished films; here’s how we actually make stuff with AI (plus, what went down at MIT).

This week, we go deep on our real workflows behind AI making; from prompting and prototyping to building finished products, and how the process is becoming the product.

Georgia takes us behind the scenes of a women-led AI conference at MIT, where ancestral wisdom met somatic healing, agent-building workshops and yes, vibe coding.

We get into:
 — Building new kinds of storytelling workflows with AI
 — Vibe coding as a business model
 — Replit’s Agent 3 (and what their new agent might replace)
 — Why AI creativity is about practice, not just prompts

👀 Plus: Omar’s vision for creative robots, and the surprisingly emotional feeling of finding your people in this crazy new AI space.

🎧 Whether you’re deep in GenAI, building in public or just wondering how AI fits into your creative life and work; this one’s full of real talk, big ideas, and a few “wait, what?!” moments.

🎬 Can you prompt a machine to feel something? In this episode, we explore the wild frontier of AI filmmaking, from getting consistent characters in AI-generated videos to experimenting with emotional prompts that might just change the edit.

We also ask: is vibe coding the new dotcom boom? What happens when your whole workflow is built on a house of APIs? And why aren't people making more silly AI products?

Plus: AI tarot, building agents to critique your own art, tech gossip and why productivity might really just be self-esteem.

🧠 If you’re building, creating, or just trying to stay human in the middle of an AI revolution, this one’s for you.

What happens when your favourite AI changes and forgets?

Georgia and Omar dig into the strange grief that comes with parasocial AI relationships, including what Omar felt when his long-running “AI mum” character temporarily stopped working after a model update. They explore how AI is reshaping emotional attachment, nostalgia, and creative process.

Also in this episode:

• Why GPT-5 felt flat initially and why changing your mind might be the most human thing of all
  
  
• The rise of AI “brain-rot” content and anti-narrative media
  
  
• Trying to quantify and create nostalgia using AI
  
  
• Whether we'll soon stream made-for-you AI films on demand
  
  

If you’re building with AI, creating with it, or just wondering what it’s doing to your brain - this one’s for you.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to make AI weird, personal, and totally yours.

We talk:

 – Open-source AIs you can run privately (and train to think it’s a pirate)
 – Why building your own GPT could be the next self-care
 – Our “legit scale” for assessing trust, vibes, and note-taking skills
 – The Devil’s Avocado: a critical thinking game we’re prototyping

Also: AI as a therapist, data leaks, optimism as a skill, and why we might be headed for an AI cult (or just a really good community movement).

In Episode 10, we look back on our favourite AI builds so far -  from cockney rhyming injury bots to robots to help us do our make-up.

This week we’re talking JSON prompting, the danger of letting machines define who we are, and how AI might actually help us sharpen our critical thinking. Omar shares his plan for an alarm clock you can only turn off by saying positive affirmations, while Georgia unveils Goal Captcha - a tool that quizzes you on your aspirations and generates a picture of your future self.

Plus: Zuckerberg’s latest AI vision, fresh insights on AI + personal development and a behind-the-scenes look at how an AI business has pivoted in just 10 weeks (clue - it’s our one).

Perfect for creative optimists, AI tinkerers, and anyone curious about building a business in the fastest-moving industry on earth.

In episode 9, we’re talking AI video, silly self-care and the rise of agents that promise to run your life.

Georgia makes animated vision boards of her future self using Midjourney video and questions what happens when your AI avatar is hotter than you. Omar builds a cops-and-robbers pedometer game and gets serious about making fitness less serious.

Plus we ponder future-self hotlines, explore Spotify-maps mashups, and ask what silliness has to do with staying human in an automated world.

Perfect for AI tinkerers, creative optimists, and anyone trying to build something weird without losing the plot.

This week we’re talking AI agents that promise the world but come through with knock-off Gucci vibes, why silliness might save us and how to parent your inner child with prompts. 

Plus we unpack the rise of yeti influencers, Georgia shares how she turned her career into a chatbot and Omar talks about building an AI powered Netflix and using AI to get bored to sleep by fake meetings. 

It’s episode 7 of Lantyn Labs! Where we explore the edges of creativity and AI by vibe coding new products every week, whilst also building our AI consultancy. 

Fresh from Cannes, Omar shares what he learned about the gap between AI hype and actual making and Georgia reveals her latest experiment: using AI to compete with friends over who can have the least screen time.

We breakdown what AGI means, wonder if ‘vibe coding’ really is the new punk rock - and ponder what will happen when AI agents scam each other (and maybe us too).

Plus Omar talks about his AI film project using zombie’s to read the weather and Georgia reveals she’s secretly been working on a spiritual AI empire.

Perfect for creative rebels, AI tinkerers or anyone interested in the intersection of technology, personal development and imagination.

Welcome back to Lantyn Labs - where we explore creative, unexpected ways to use AI in real life, whilst building a purpose-first AI consultancy in an industry that changes quicker than you can say ‘machine learning.’

In ep 6, Georgia does some AI whispering and somehow ends up getting offered a job by a robot, and Omar puts leading language models through a serious cultural benchmark, asking: how much do they really know about biscuits?

We check in on Georgia’s makeup tutorial AI (GLAMbot), and Omar introduces his latest experiment; a surreal AI film series starring his own gut bacteria. Which leads us to ask: can we use AI to make self-care less serious?

Perfect for the creatively curious, or anyone who’s interested in AI and the creative industries or building strange, useful things with machines.

In the first ever episode of Lantyn Labs not recorded on the green sofa, Georgia and Omar might be in different countries but they’re in the same AI rabbit hole. 

Georgia shares how she’s experimenting with some AI personal development R&D by running a course working through The Artist’s Way. Plus what happened when she turned her actual therapist into an AI.

Omar walks us through his latest builds: a calorie calculator that gamifies walking off your snacks and a secure-attachment-style quiz disguised as a theory test. Plus, explains how he used AI video to bring Hackney’s 90s pirate radio scene back to life - using YouTube comments.

Perfect for curious creatives, AI tinkerers, and anyone wondering how to turn their personal weirdness into useful stuff.

Tune in, geek out, and who knows… maybe build something weird before next week’s episode drops?
