Welcome back to The FAIK Files: the show that keeps you informed on all things artificial intelligence and natural nonsense.
In this week's episode, we explore:
- AI companies' partnerships with US defense contractors, including OpenAI's recent deal with Anduril Industries
- How ElevenLabs' voice cloning technology was exploited for Russian propaganda
- Pinokio, a user-friendly platform for running AI models locally
- A quirky story about a smooth talking AI powered robot who managed to "kidnap" several other robots
