Host notes – My apologies about the audio quality. We recorded on the road, and the mic setup didn’t work as planned. The audio quality is a bit stronger on the YouTube video than on the podcast, but definitely a bit below our standard at Voicebot. However, the conversation and guest commentary was very good, and it seemed easy enough to follow after the first five minutes, so I wanted to put it out there as a resource. In particular, I think you will like the discussion around LLMs and the Theory of Mind, generative AI in education, and the potential erosion of generative AI startup valuations. Give it a go and let me know what you think. Also, please give the video a click and a like.
The Generative AI News (GAIN) rundown this week was recorded on July 6, 2023. Some special segments include:
- Mythical generative AI capabilities. From the theory of mind to general AI to emergent abilities, generative AI claims keep getting proven wrong.
- The generative AI funding fountain continues to be strong, but we discuss whether some companies are struggling to grow into their high valuations.
- We also give you a new list of generative AI winners and losers of the week.
Many thanks to my guests and co-hosts this week Tobias Dengel and Patrick Wright of WillowTree. They brought an interesting perspective on AI capabilities, education, and funding.
Links related to the top stories are included below for anyone who wants to dig deeper into a topic.
