Join me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Elizabeth Knopf (https://x.com/leveragedupside) for a packed episode on the latest in AI and tech.
We dive deep into the alleged "divorce" between Johnny Ive and Sam Altman over the IO trademark dispute, revealing a deeper look at Sam Altman's "ruthless Machiavellian leadership". We also explore the intense "wars" between LLMs like OpenAI and Anthropic (Claude), including Claude's decision to cut data access for OpenAI's Windsurf acquisition. Plus, we discuss the evolving language in AI, from AGI to "superintelligence", and the crucial fair use rulings impacting Claude and Meta regarding copyrighted material used for AI training.
In the second half, I get a personal walkthrough of Claude's new artifacts feature. This game-changing update makes it much easier to organize, find, and utilize your AI-generated documents, dashboards, and even interactive tools. You'll learn how to publish and share these artifacts, leverage "inspiration" templates, and even view the chat history that created them.
We also explore how you can customize these artifacts as starting templates and, most excitingly, create "custom wrappers" that integrate with Model Context Protocol (MCP) for data retrieval from sources like Google Drive, and even potentially automate workflows with Zapier.
Enjoy the conversation!
