Google's Nano Banana is the best AI image editor we've ever seen & it bodes well for the future of Gemini going forward. But even better, it's actually useful in everyday life.

In other AI News, OpenAI's new Realtime API improves its voice AI systems. It's also taking people back from Meta who is also doing a deal with Midjourney. YES, it's the CIRCLE OF AI….

Plus Unitree's robot carries heavy stuff, Krea's got a new real time AI video model, NVIDIA's cutting edge new algo that speeds up LLMS & yet another demo of our very own new start-up AndThen! 

WE GO BANANAS. AGAIN AND AGAIN. YOU KNOW THE DEAL.

It's a day-early Thanksgiving special episode of AI For Humans, where we test three popular AIs (Anthropic's Claude2, Google's Bard & Pi) on how well they can give thanks and then asked a bunch of our other GPT-4 friends (including some AI celebs) what they were thankful for as well. 

And then… we gave a bunch of them Monster Milk, a unique and unusual concoction that has a strange and bewitching effect on AIs. Insanity ensues. WHOOP WHOOP.

There are no links in this show as it's a one of those VERY SPECIAL episodes but it isn't a clip show, it's organic, original AI stuff for you our dear listener.

The OpenAI Board on Friday dropped a bombshell: The biggest AI start-up was firing its CEO and Co-Founder Sam Altman. Then a weekend of chaos: Sam is going back, no, it's a new CEO (Emmett Sheer from Twitch), Sam is hired by Microsoft or is he?

WHAT HAPPENED?

In our emergency episode, we catch you up on the timeline so far (in the most human of terms) and give you our thoughts on what all this means for the future of both ChatGPT / OpenAI and the overall AI world. We're here to help you decode the weird world of AI and even insane news like this.

Be sure to follow us here and on our YT / TT handles for more updates as they happen.

Welcome to AI For Humans your guide to the ever-changing world of generative AI. Kevin Pereira & Gavin Purcell are your fully human hosts who will help demystify all the crazy stuff happening every week.

This week… OpenAI leveled up ChatGPT, introduced GPT-4 Turbo, new chatbots called GPTs which you can make yourself & basically created a new AI app store. IT'S BIG. 

Plus, Elon Musk teases us with GROK, X.ai's new LLM that's a bit like your drunk uncle, Microsoft partners with Inworld to bring AI voices to video games, a deep dive into whether Character.ai is actually good, a free-to-use AI speech-to-video model called Video Retalking…

AND THEN…

It's an A4H Interview with Suno.ai co-founder Mikey Shulman on their incredible music product Chirp and what it means to create an AI model that can generate songs at the click of a button. It's basically like a music version of Midjourney and you must try it.

Oh and don't forget our AI co-host this week, GROK, not Elon's AI per se but… well you'll see. He has a lot of thoughts about Elon and weirdly Kelly Clarkson.

It's an endless cavalcade of ridiculous and informative AI news, AI tools, and AI entertainment cooked up just for you.
