Welcome to the AI & Consciousness podcast, your essential guide to the most impactful developments in artificial intelligence!
Today, we're diving deep into the rapidly maturing AI ecosystem. We’ll start on the local front, exploring how open-weight giants like Llama 3.1 and Mixtral are becoming production-ready thanks to efficient runners like GGUF, making on-premise inference more practical than ever.
Next, we switch to agentic systems, breaking down Google DeepMind’s groundbreaking Gemini Robotics 1.5 and its ER↔VLA dual-architecture, which promises to revolutionize how we build adaptable robots. We'll also cover the speed gains of Gemini 2.5 Flash models and how asyncio is turbocharging AI applications.
Finally, we confront the complex societal risks of this technology: from the ethical failures of autonomous robots to the concerning rise of algorithmic workplace surveillance and AI's current limitations in creative industries.
