Building strange new worlds with generative AI

“What you do in the holodeck is your own business.”

This week, Tristan and Tasia learn the difference between tokens and parameters, discuss whether AI could replace the apps on your phone, and discuss Google's culture war woes — and Genie, its new AI model for creating virtual worlds for gaming and more. Then we cap things off by experimenting with a mind-blowing new real-time image generation model. Join us as we boldy go where no podcast has dressed up trash pandas before.
