Welcome back to The FAIK Files!
In this week's episode:
-
NVIDIA’s Diffusion Renderer: We explore NVIDIA's new research into real-time diffusion rendering, a potential game-changer in photorealistic generation
-
Robotics Powered by Video AI: Luma and Runway are targeting robotics companies with video synthesis tools—because training a robot brain takes a lot of fake video
-
AI-Generated Fashion Models: Listener “Ty” (of Side Character Quest) sends us a wild one: fashion campaigns using entirely synthetic models so convincing you can’t tell they’re fake
-
LLMs and the Dark Arts: We cover ChatGPT’s shocking responses involving murder, mutilation, and Satanism—plus how bigotry and bias are inextricably embedded in these systems.
