Buff Presidents, Google Will Crush ChatGPT? + AI Gordon Ramsay

Whoo boy, do we have a whopper of a show today. In our demo, we use AI to clone Chef Gordon Ramsay & have him help us figure out the Grimace Shake meme and how he might prepare the "purple blob" for eating. It's an adventure in using ChatGPT to create an interactive character who's just a little off and trust us, it's funny. (Starts at 45:10)  Gavin's dumb thing of the week is making Buff Presidents after RFK, Jr's coming out party as a swole candidate, Kevin goes deep on DragGan which lets you stretch photos any which way you want as well as free text-to-video from Zeroscope. In the news this week: -- ChatGPT getting dethroned? Google (specifically Deep Mind) says it can take them down with it's new upcoming chatbot. -- Deep Mind also released info on a Robocat, an AI algorithm that can help robots improve themselves without supervision (what?) and then a CMU professor releases VRB (Vision Robotics Bridge) which allows robots to hold a knife (oh no). This leads to another AI will kill us all discussion. -- Marvel releases a new series on Disney+ with AI credits and *everyone* freaks out even though no human jobs were impacted. ***NEW SEGMENT*** We spin the Wheel of Jobs which lands on "landscaping and gardening" and discuss how these jobs will be impacted in the near and far futures. It's all good and serious we work hard on this so you'd better enjoy this and like the crap out of it. Oh, also subscribe if you know what's good for you. ////SHOW NOTES//// Buff Presidents: https://twitter.com/AIForHumansShow/status/1674088485828034560 DragGan: https://twitter.com/Attack/status/1673338677370519562?s=20 Paper: https://vcai.mpi-inf.mpg.de/projects/DragGAN/ ZeroScope: https://huggingface.co/spaces/fffiloni/zeroscope ChatGPT gonna be ECLIPSED https://www.wired.com/story/google-deepmind-demis-hassabis-chatgpt/ RoboCat - Deepmind https://twitter.com/DeepMind/status/1671171448638144515?s=20 Robots Learning through Videos https://techcrunch.com/2023/06/22/robots-learn-to-perform-chores-by-watching-youtube/ Marvel Show Uses AI Art For Credits https://deadline.com/2023/06/secret-invasion-opening-credits-ai-backlash-marvel-mcu-disney-1235421667/ ////SHOW INFO//// YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCghJTNTO9kcDeUFXMuSDGLQ AI For Humans Twitter: https://twitter.com/AIForHumansShow Kevin’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/Attack Gavin’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/gavinpurcell Website: AIForHumans.show #AIForHumans #zeroscope #buffpresidents #robocat #deepmind #google #chatGPT #AI #generativeai #gordonramsay #marvel #secretinvasion #draggan #grimaceshake
