AI Candidates for 2024, Google’s Gemini & Tesla AI Full Self Driving | AI For Humans
This week on AI For Humans, we get deeper into the news around Google’s new Gemini AI which is supposedly five times more powerful than GPT-4, discuss Elon Musk testing Tesla’s new Full Self Driving AI, Kevin got sent on a wild goose chase by the AI model Pi and then we meet three potential AI Presidential Candidates, one of whom will we will attempt to run for President in 2024. It gets weird, folks sorry ahead of time. Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell are your hosts for this episode and all the other ones you may or may not have heard. What is Google Gemini? Google Gemini is the upcoming new AI model from the now very serious AI team under Demis Hassabis (formerly head of Deep Mind). This week a new report came out in Semianalysis that says it’s going to be 5x the power of GPT-4 but no one is exactly sure what that means. What is Pi? Pi is a large language model that we are fond of for its amazing ability to quickly answer you when asking questions over voice-to-voice within the iPhone app. While it’s amazingly quick at getting you an answer, we’ve found that it’s less and less reliable the more you ask it to do. How exactly did we create the AI Presidential Candidates? As we discuss in the episode, Kevin and I worked on a prompt with ChatGPT (GPT-4) to create a character that had multiple facets and also had a lot of specific asks (platform, stance on issues, etc). We then plugged the exact same prompt into GPT-4, Anthropic’s Claude 2 and Meta’s LLAMA 2 to get the different results.

LinkedIn Selfies, OpenAI's GPT Bot, D&D AI Controversy + AI Court | AI For Humans
This week on AI For Humans we dig into Remini, the app everyone's using for LinkedIn Selfies, Kevin went in on MetaGPT, a new *working* AI Agent program, then we talk about the Dungeons & Dragons AI art controversy, somehow discuss Ed Sheeran's take on AI and ultimately we play judges as two AIs try to hash out their issues in Small ClAIms court. Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell are your hosts for this episode and all the other ones you may or may not have heard. WE GOT A SPONSOR Visit Supermanage.AI/humans and sign up for the waitlist to support the show and learn more about this very cool AI managment software. What is Remini? It's a new paid app that lets you make LinkedIn selfies easily. And while you can likely do this for yourself cheaper, this does make it easy. Of course, Gavin used it to create selfies of Guy Fieri. What is MetaGPT? MetaGPT is a brand new AI agent program that actually works and can excute smaller code projects unlike some previous AI stuff from before (AutoGPT & BabyAGI). Kevin used it to make a very dank hangman game. What is GPT Bot? GPT Bot is OpenAI's public scraping bot for the web which they just announced this week. It's a big deal less for what it is and more so for the fact that they told everyone they were doing it.

This week on AI For Humans we dive into ChatGPT's Custom Instructions, get semi-gaslit by Pi AI, conjure up a bunch of Future AI news using GPT-4 and, finally, have our first real live human interview with Coqui.AI's Josh Meyer! Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell are your hosts for this episode and all the other ones you may or may not have heard. What are ChatGPT's Custom Instructions? Custom Instructions are a very cool way to use ChatGPT so that you can always prime it in a specific way and you don't always have to tell it a bunch of stuff before you get the results you want. We, of course, used it give us a nice, random track from Brazilan Funk of the 1970s. What is Pi AI? We've featured Pi before - it's a voice-to-voice AI app that is remarkable in how good it is at carrying on a conversation and additionaly, somehow, has very good up-to-date information that none of the other LLMs have. It also seems to have a not-so-great filter on what it should and shouldn't say. What is Coqui.ai? Coqui.AI is a very cool start-up that's specializing in text-to-voice prompting and has a custom model that allows for companies (specifically video game companies) to create a large library of digital voices for their characters. Josh Meyer, our guest, was a member of the Mozilla team and left to co-found Coqui with his partners.
