Udio’s Incredible Music Tool, Adobe’s Big AI Push & Are All Rappers Just AIs Now?

DROP US A REVIEW, YOU KNOW YOU WANNA.

This week… Adobe brings new AI video tools to maket (including OpenAI’s Sora support), the Humane AI Pin aftermath & Drake Vs Kendrick Vs AI.

Plus, AI Warper’s viral Lil Yachty slash Joker Viggle video, Tennessee puts an AI deepfake law on the books and the GeekSquad might be going away. Sad times

AND THEN… we go deep on Udio’s amazing new AI music tool and talk about how it differs from Suno.AI and show off some of the fun songs people have made with it so far. 

NOTE: Kevin and Gavin are “in the field” again meaning they’re in person and also without a lot of their normal tech they have at home. Also, Gavin’s audio sucks on this one. We know. 

BACK TO NORMAL NEXT WEEK WE PROMISE

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

AI4H053 - KP Cutdown===
Gavin
Welcome. Welcome. Welcome everybody. We are here. It is AI for humans. This is your guide to the wonderful wild world of generative AI.
Gavin
All of the tools, news, and all the other fun stuff in the AI world. I'm here with Kevin Pereira. Kevin, how are you? I'm
AI4H053_a
well.
AI4H053_a
You know
AI4H053_a
that. We've been
AI4H053_a
hanging out
AI4H053_a
all
AI4H053_a
morning.
Gavin
But we're in the same place again, everybody. If you are listening to this, you're hearing a relatively normal show, except for my audio might be worse.
Gavin
Sorry about that. But we are together again, in person. We are at an event that is at an undisclosed people about it maybe later on, but for right now, We're here. We're in person and we're not going to punch each other. We've already made that deal.
AI4H053_a
And it's not that clandestine, by the way, there's no like discussion of UAPs or Yetis. It is the
Gavin
Alban is not here. This is not that we are not at the Illuminati of the AI world. So we are in a much
AI4H053_a
we're still excited to talk about all things and everything's AI with you. And we have quite a show. ,
AI4H053_a
in fact,
AI4H053_a
on the show today, , A
AI4H053_a
just
AI4H053_a
released AI wearable
AI4H053_a
is getting some rather inhumane [00:01:00] treatment
AI4H053_a
from
AI4H053_a
journalists,
AI4H053_a
Yeah, We're
AI4H053_a
gonna round up
AI4H053_a
all the reviews, we're gonna let you know how the company is handling the latest drama, and we'll, uh, I guess we'll take a victory lap, because we told everybody
AI4H053_a
To
Gavin
avoid it.
Gavin
Although the last time we talked about, this is the humane AI pen, and it really did get crapped on this week. Um, the last time we talked about it, we're like, Hey, maybe it won't be so bad. Turns out it was just as bad as people thought, as we thought as
AI4H053_a
well. Surprise. We're going to get
Gavin
Plus,
AI4H053_a
Drake
AI4H053_a
and
AI4H053_a
Kendrick Lamar
AI4H053_a
are
AI4H053_a
battling, and
AI4H053_a
no,
AI4H053_a
these
AI4H053_a
are not
AI4H053_a
new AI chatbots. These are
AI4H053_a
some
AI4H053_a
world
AI4H053_a
famous hip hopsmen, and they are in fact feuding, but artificial intelligence is involved, and we will let you
Gavin
know
Gavin
how. Yeah,
Gavin
it's interesting. There's been a lot of confusion around what's
Gavin
AI,
Gavin
what's not AI. And this is the kind of thing we've been telling everybody out there.
Gavin
AI
Gavin
is going believe
AI4H053_a
All
AI4H053_a
that plus an overview of Adobe's magical AI features for premiere. A look at some powerful new music creation software that Gavin [00:02:00] really did a deep dive on.
AI4H053_a
And we will reveal how Elvis might be coming for your favorite AI tools.
Gavin
Elvis has not left the building. He has actually gotten AI tools. I'm sorry.
AI4H053_a
Uh, what was it? That's a very long
AI4H053_a
announcement to come over the loudspeaker. Can we say that?
AI4H053_a
What was that again?
Gavin
I'm sorry. We won't be saying it again. That is the only time you will hear it. Okay. Well, uh, Well,
Gavin
okay. Okay. Before we start, there's a couple of things. One, we want to let everybody know we're going to be having a branding update soon, which is very exciting.
Gavin
We have a new logo. We have some new fonts, all that's going to be coming down the next couple of weeks. We can't promise this next week, but we're very lucky that we had somebody who designed a new brand for us. You will be seeing a new look AI for humans. You'll still see our faces every once in a while, but you Which is exciting
AI4H053_a
AI for human
AI4H053_a
heads,
AI4H053_a
you got the scoop here. There's been a lot of clamor and a
AI4H053_a
lot of chatter on the
Gavin
about our brand. I want to let people know in case they're
AI4H053_a
You gotta get ready. This is like telling the
Gavin
baby
Gavin
daddy's
Gavin
going to shave.
Gavin
Also,
Gavin
as we do every week, please like, and follow all of [00:03:00] us, all of us, us to like
Gavin
all of us, the
Gavin
two of us, , if you go to YouTube subscribe to the channel on YouTube. Please leave us a five star review. We will read them at the end of the show.
Gavin
I actually, now that I realize this, I have not checked. I do think we have a couple to read at
Gavin
the end of the show, but we will get there. Every little bit you all do at home helps us. we love reacting to comments, interacting with comments. We've been threatening to do
Gavin
a mailbag
Gavin
episode, which we will do at some point soon.
Gavin
Would have been smart to do that for today, but what do you know?
AI4H053_a
okay. There's
AI4H053_a
so
AI4H053_a
much
AI4H053_a
news,
AI4H053_a
Gavin. We
AI4H053_a
actually
AI4H053_a
have to
AI4H053_a
get into it.
Gavin
Let's do it. It's time
AI4H053_a
for
AI4H053_a
the news.
Gavin
A lot of big news this week, the biggest story that we saw come down was Adobe,
Gavin
which we all
Gavin
love Adobe, Adobe's Photoshop, , Premiere pro, all of their big, , creative services, Adobe released a video that had a lot of people talking, and it really surprised me because they're introducing both AI, additional AI [00:04:00] tools, including generative video, AI tools into their video program, but there are going to be partnering with With third party AI services, including Sora, which was kind of surprising.
Gavin
I
AI4H053_a
thought,
AI4H053_a
yeah, very cool announcement video. the overview is that they showed off some cool AI features like video in painting, which would allow you to take a shot, select a section of it, and then tell the video Firefly model, Hey, I want, in their example, it was, I want the diamonds in this briefcase
AI4H053_a
to be
AI4H053_a
larger
AI4H053_a
diamonds.
AI4H053_a
in the briefcase.
Gavin
Right.
Gavin
The
Gavin
other thing they
Gavin
did, which was they eliminated a, like a spews box on the wall. And one of the cool things that's really awesome about this is it's able to select object by object. So you don't have to just lasso around it in a hard way.
Gavin
You can literally highlight over an object in this object. They highlight over the fuse box. They say, remove it. And they removed it from a video shot, which is a really useful tool. If you're out there making
AI4H053_a
films. Yeah, a smart masking feature. my wife has been trying to do this with her wedding ring. She's been trying to delete the tiny, fake little cubic zirconia that's there and telling the AI, [00:05:00] Larger
AI4H053_a
diamond. Did it work?
AI4H053_a
Well,
AI4H053_a
no, she
AI4H053_a
doesn't
AI4H053_a
have
AI4H053_a
the
AI4H053_a
latest
AI4H053_a
Adobe. I There you go. that. you
AI4H053_a
can buy that for
Gavin
her instead of a new ring,
AI4H053_a
Yeah, it's too
AI4H053_a
cheap.
AI4H053_a
She's gonna get
AI4H053_a
MS Paint, and
AI4H053_a
I'm
AI4H053_a
gonna put a sticky
AI4H053_a
note
AI4H053_a
over the toolbar
AI4H053_a
and be like, Honey.
AI4H053_a
Look, it's Adobe, but to your point earlier, the Sora, Runway, and Pika integration.
AI4H053_a
Now, if you're a first time listener to the podcast, you're like, what are those things? These are video generation models. There's three different ones. Sora by OpenAI, Runway by
AI4H053_a
RunwayML, and Pika, which is Pika Labs, essentially. But they all allow you to generate video by using text and using artificial intelligence.
AI4H053_a
And what Adobe is doing is integrating those models together. directly into Premiere Pro. So in their examples, it's a person looking longingly out a window, Gavin. And they whisper to the AI, generate a shot of
AI4H053_a
the Tokyo
AI4H053_a
skyline, or of our protagonist driving the highways at night.
AI4H053_a
And it does
Gavin
a
Gavin
pretty
Gavin
good
Gavin
job.
Gavin
Pretty couple of interesting things about the Sora implementation here. If you noticed when that happened, there were three different clips that showed
Gavin
up.
Gavin
We don't know how long they took, but that's a pretty [00:06:00] cool thing. If you've got three choices to pull from each time, like being able to say, I like that one is a really awesome way to do this.
Gavin
I'm kind of surprised Adobe is now saying, we're just going to throw open the door because Firefly is their main AI model. They're at Firefly 2 and they're working on Firefly video. I'm surprised. They're just going to say anybody use it. But Adobe's main business, we have to remember is the tool set, right?
Gavin
Is the editing tool set, is Photoshop.
AI4H053_a
we'll sell our big hammer and you will go probably pay per nail because that's something
AI4H053_a
that they,
AI4H053_a
you know,
AI4H053_a
it's obviously it's yeah.
AI4H053_a
It's early days for these tools. There's no indication on when we're going to get our hands
AI4H053_a
on
AI4H053_a
them.
AI4H053_a
And especially no indication of how much they're going to cost. Like, are you going to have to have separate subscriptions for each of these models and then plug them into Adobe? Are they going to try to roll that up into one, New subscription tier where you pay Adobe and get a certain amount of generations.
AI4H053_a
Completely unknown right now, but cool that they're doing it. And it does help distract a little bit from , the wrist slapping that Adobe got by some a couple of weeks ago.
Gavin
So the the funniest thing is this weird story is adobe's firefly was always the idea was we're going to create an ai image model from stock footage We own you use legal It is possible to use this
AI4H053_a
without
AI4H053_a
getting we're artists and creator centric. We would never
AI4H053_a
take a artificial
AI4H053_a
generation or someone
Gavin
else's
Gavin
work
Gavin
and
Gavin
sweep
Gavin
it
Gavin
into
Gavin
our
Gavin
data
Gavin
set. Well,
Gavin
it
Gavin
turns out part
Gavin
of
Gavin
their
Gavin
data
Gavin
set might have been mid journey based, which we know the issues that have happened with mid journey in the past, what they've got in their legal background, so maybe there, Kevin, there is no clean but Firefly was supposed to be the clean one, and
AI4H053_a
we're in a
Gavin
situation where it might have been muddled as
AI4H053_a
well.
AI4H053_a
Well, they're saying that creators were allowed to submit, , stills. Into their data program.
AI4H053_a
And some people may have submit AI imagery and not labeled it. Adobe said that it's a small amount, about 5 percent of the images that were used by the tool were generated. With other AI platforms,
AI4H053_a
but yes, maybe all
Gavin
data
Gavin
is dirt. I
Gavin
think
Gavin
at
Gavin
this
Gavin
point I keep hearing podcasts and people interviewed and say like, look, it already happened.
Gavin
And [00:08:00] unfortunately that's kind of the situation we're
Gavin
in. We've talked about this a thousand times in this podcast. We always want to see artists get paid for people that are using their goods. Maybe there will be a Spotify model, which Kevin has mentioned. Maybe there'll be some future world where you could at least get like a 50 paycheck a images are being trained on.
Gavin
But right now it is because we just don't know.
AI4H053_a
. Well, here's the other thing, Gav, is that every time a tool comes out, anytime there's a celebration
AI4H053_a
of something in AI, the creatives get behind it and say, this is terrible. You're destroying our art.
AI4H053_a
Here we have Adobe
AI4H053_a
trumpeting several AI tools, which are going to remove some of
AI4H053_a
the drudgery
AI4H053_a
in
AI4H053_a
editing, right? Yeah. Deleting objects. creating new shots where there weren't shots was something that they showed off, right? Yeah. I don't see too many people crying foul over this. Is it because it's, you know, it's Adobe. And so
AI4H053_a
these are tools that creatives are already using. And
AI4H053_a
they're saying, Oh, this is going to make my workflow faster, even though
AI4H053_a
it's essentially
Gavin
the
Gavin
same
Gavin
technology
Gavin
that
Gavin
we've
Gavin
been
Gavin
talking
Gavin
about. in part, why they're [00:09:00] not showing a lot of anger that there are using it to adjust and work with footage that looks like it was shot in the real world.
Gavin
This is a little bit, not yet. And there will be versions of this where, you know, generated out of the blue footage. With
Gavin
Sora, you were
Gavin
generating a, uh, from a text prompt in this instance, what Adobe is showing is, Hey, you can use these tools to manipulate footage that you've already shot and save yourself five to 10 hours of work.
Gavin
That's really useful to create it. So I think that's true, but they're not showing off. new
AI4H053_a
I guess what they didn't say is, you know, what's
AI4H053_a
also useful, not
AI4H053_a
having to have a camera in the first
AI4H053_a
place and pesky human actors in front
AI4H053_a
of it. Let's
AI4H053_a
generate that on the timeline
Gavin
because
Gavin
it's
Gavin
the
Gavin
same
Gavin
technology.
AI4H053_a
They can do. Yes, exactly. All right. Let's move on to our next story. we've talked a lot about this. The humane AI pin was a. A big promise. There was a, you don't have one. I I don't have one. I have a lot, but do have you
AI4H053_a
wait. Oh
AI4H053_a
no. I
AI4H053_a
can feel my wallet
AI4H053_a
though. And it
AI4H053_a
does have
AI4H053_a
$700 in it, which is nice.
Gavin
smart.
Gavin
So the humane item with [00:10:00] the idea with this was it was a pin that you could touch and it would respond to you with an AI built in that a laser projector on your hand, all of this seemed very cool.
Gavin
The reviews of this product came out this week and they are bad. I mean, these are like astronomically bad. These are some of the worst reviews I've seen in a while. And I think my takeaway on this, most of the reviews are because they don't Also, the tech was not great. So
AI4H053_a
what went wrong
Gavin
here with the AI pen?
AI4H053_a
according to all the reviews, everything went wrong. There's
AI4H053_a
not a single positive glowing review. The only, shred of
AI4H053_a
hope buried within the reviews are this is a
AI4H053_a
hint at the promise of the future. But as the tech
AI4H053_a
exists today, though, it's
AI4H053_a
impressive. They got it into a small form factor. The battery seems to die quickly. It seems to overheat a lot because it's
AI4H053_a
doing that wireless charging thing with a magnetic.
AI4H053_a
Battery that sits
Gavin
behind
Gavin
your
Gavin
shirt.
AI4H053_a
So
AI4H053_a
it's overheating
Gavin
It is a swappable
AI4H053_a
and you will
AI4H053_a
be managing that battery multiple times a day.
AI4H053_a
Apparently it's [00:11:00] slow. It requires a 20 some odd dollar a month
AI4H053_a
connection to the cloud
AI4H053_a
so that
AI4H053_a
it
Gavin
can wirelessly
Gavin
even worse. There
Gavin
are no apps for it. So anything you want to do on it goes through the humane app alone, but then you can't do stuff like. Call an Uber. You can't do stuff like call Spotify. In fact, title is the official music partner. And if you don't have a title account, you're kind of SOL. I want to shout out Marquez, Marquez Brownlee's review of this, which we're, I'm a big fan.
Gavin
We're both fans of Marquez. Marquez really got a lot of crap for how negative this review was. And if you watch the review, he really did spend like the first third or half of it, almost like talking about the cool factor, like from a, from a production standpoint, this little thing is really interesting and it's well made and all this other stuff.
Gavin
But then he really also went into how this thing isn't doing what it's promised to do. And that
AI4H053_a
the
AI4H053_a
ultimate the title of the video
AI4H053_a
was
Gavin
the
AI4H053_a
product I've
AI4H053_a
ever reviewed.
Gavin
Right for now, he
Gavin
said
AI4H053_a
For
AI4H053_a
now, of course, of course, but that seems to be where the division
AI4H053_a
is, I think in a lot of the audience is that
AI4H053_a
some people are saying, Marques, you
AI4H053_a
have
AI4H053_a
a
AI4H053_a
platform, you have a quote responsibility, you could
AI4H053_a
single handedly
AI4H053_a
sync a company like Fisker
AI4H053_a
with
AI4H053_a
the automotive manufacturer, which he did a couple of
AI4H053_a
weeks ago, or Humane
AI4H053_a
here.
AI4H053_a
but the division in the audience
AI4H053_a
is
AI4H053_a
like, should you be saying the, is it actually
AI4H053_a
the worst
Gavin
product
Gavin
ever?
Gavin
Or are you
Gavin
saying
Gavin
that to get
Gavin
people
Gavin
to click
Gavin
I don't know. That's a
Gavin
good
Gavin
question, right? Because it is.
Gavin
Right now it
Gavin
is an absolute failure of a product. And I think that that is something that, you know, a normal company probably wouldn't release this. There is an argument. People have said online that a startup should be allowed to throw out products and fail this, I will say 700. It's already bucks a month.
Gavin
The videos of this that came out originally were promising that this was going to be, the guy was a former Apple
Gavin
engineer, iPhone engineer.
Gavin
You would expect something to come out at a much higher level. I think what happened with too far over their They promised a lot and I am not convinced that [00:13:00] voice in public is the standard for because I think as much as we love voice to models are great.
Gavin
There's a lot of work that goes into hey, tell me this or hey, tell me that has to be simpler It has to be quieter. Maybe it'll be when we get brain interfaces and like we can just think the thing
Gavin
No, that's what I mean. Yeah,
Gavin
exactly
Gavin
But
Gavin
like I don't know if that it feels like in between
AI4H053_a
by the way, I don't know how you side on the Marquez of it all. Like, I think he was justified for
AI4H053_a
saying that as the YouTube title, because he also says it in the video itself. It's not like he went with that later.
AI4H053_a
To get the clicks in but
AI4H053_a
he released a short little snippet that has him using the humane pen, tapping it, saying, what am I looking
AI4H053_a
at? Or what is this?
AI4H053_a
And
AI4H053_a
while he's waiting for that
AI4H053_a
request
AI4H053_a
to go to the cloud, to have the image analyzed, he takes out his phone, snaps a photo of the cyber truck that he's staring at and
AI4H053_a
gets the answer
AI4H053_a
instantaneously with a
AI4H053_a
smart device.
AI4H053_a
And that is going to be
AI4H053_a
the hurdle that [00:14:00] All of these tech startups have to leap
AI4H053_a
with their hardware. You've got to beat
AI4H053_a
the thing
Gavin
that we
Gavin
all
Gavin
have
Gavin
in
Gavin
our
Gavin
pockets
Gavin
already.
Gavin
And I think speed is a big part of it, right? Because like one of the things last week or week before last, we talked, we did Hume
Gavin
AI, which was the
Gavin
back and forth with the emotional vocal AI. What was cool about that is it was responding really quickly,
Gavin
when something goes to the cloud has to call the cloud, come back down. It just may not be the right response time right now. Now we're going to get better and faster.
Gavin
So that will
Gavin
improve, but we are so far, I feel is.
Gavin
Like you're probably. Three
AI4H053_a
want. I think so. Now there's another company that were responsible for a program called rewind, which was piece of software.
AI4H053_a
You could run locally on your
AI4H053_a
computer.
AI4H053_a
It would
AI4H053_a
gather all of your data securely, privately, and let you go back and search for things, search your
AI4H053_a
PDFs, find
AI4H053_a
tickets
AI4H053_a
and emails.
AI4H053_a
And now they've rebranded as a product called limitless and it is a
AI4H053_a
foldable
AI4H053_a
little, uh, [00:15:00] lapel ish pen. Yeah, it's like a little pendant that basically just listens and
AI4H053_a
transcribes all
AI4H053_a
of the things that you say. Now, there's some privacy controls built into that, but they're going a different route with it, Gavin. They're going 99.
AI4H053_a
It
AI4H053_a
can sync to your devices later through,
AI4H053_a
I think, Bluetooth or Wi Fi, but the idea being that, You're just going to gather so much
AI4H053_a
data with this pin. It's not for the, Hey, where am I
AI4H053_a
standing? What am I looking at? What am I doing?
AI4H053_a
This is just to gather all your
AI4H053_a
data
AI4H053_a
and give
Gavin
you
Gavin
and
Gavin
help
Gavin
you And that seems like a hundred dollars for a wearable. That's really to just remember stuff for you. That's something I could see working right now because you're not trying to interact with it. You're going to go back later and see what you can do, what you did during the course of the day. That feels like a use case of an AI wearable.
Gavin
That's really good.
Gavin
I will
Gavin
say they look a because it's like you wear them around your neck like a gold 70s, right? They have different
Gavin
colors and that could be gold, but like, it's a, it's going to be interesting to see like, are people going to start walking
Gavin
around with
Gavin
this?
AI4H053_a
want a
AI4H053_a
smart
AI4H053_a
Bolo. me
Gavin
a
Gavin
big
Gavin
chunk of true voice. That's actually a good idea.
AI4H053_a
Right.
AI4H053_a
make
AI4H053_a
that
Gavin
product. We should make limitless in the bolo form.
AI4H053_a
right.
Gavin
That's incredible. X
Gavin
limitless
AI4H053_a
special
AI4H053_a
collab
Gavin
We're going to move. We're going to move to New
Gavin
Mexico. We'll be
Gavin
in Santa
Gavin
Fe We'll start
Gavin
a little business.
Gavin
That'll be
AI4H053_a
But That's our
AI4H053_a
future.
Gavin
When two of us are going to retire together I think you should check it out. It's called
AI4H053_a
Limitless.
AI4H053_a
Yeah. 99. it, I think it starts shipping in
AI4H053_a
August and again, 99 bucks,
AI4H053_a
no
AI4H053_a
subscription fee, which is great. And the battery lasts
AI4H053_a
for
Gavin
a
Gavin
hundred
Gavin
hours,
Gavin
which
Gavin
is what you need really. Right. Because
Gavin
like when you have an Apple watch, right. I remember when the Apple watch first came out and you had to charge up more than once a day. God, it was unbelievable. You was just useless. And then what you want as a wearable is that you just put it on, you forget about it.
AI4H053_a
We're going to move on, but we want humane to do well.
AI4H053_a
We want
AI4H053_a
wearables
AI4H053_a
to do well, but you probably got to run your AI locally. You got to run it on device or else it's just going to take too long to be
Gavin
useful.
Gavin
It's not a great time for Rabbit. We'll say that. Like, it'll be interesting to see. Now, Rabbit, I have always loved because that is a cooler looking
AI4H053_a
device.
AI4H053_a
Sure. kind of a
Gavin
fun and [00:17:00] gadgety thing. It's only 200 bucks, I think, right? Versus no
AI4H053_a
fee, at least. Supposedly.
AI4H053_a
So
Gavin
we'll see. Those are going to be shipping sometime what comes out with those.
AI4H053_a
you know, it'd be great.
AI4H053_a
Rabbit
AI4H053_a
comes out, starts to
AI4H053_a
get a little mind share. A little market share. Yeah. Then they use the onboard AI to write diss tracks
AI4H053_a
and you
AI4H053_a
got
AI4H053_a
Rabbit
AI4H053_a
X humane because apparently Gavin
AI4H053_a
AI Rap tracks and diss battles are all the rage.
Gavin
All right, so let's dive into the story. This is a pretty big mainstream story. And we want to talk about it here because there's a really significant AI angle.
Gavin
Um, if you're not familiar with the hip hop world, there has been some beef going on between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, um, future and also J Cole. These are all big rappers. If you're not a hip hop fan, you probably have still heard of them. , there's an, a song that came out where Kendrick and J Cole and please hip hop heads, please don't kill me if I'm absolutely wrong,
Gavin
Kendrick
Gavin
and J Cole
Gavin
both had done some sort of a disagreement Drake on a song, a song came out a couple of days ago.
Gavin
randomly appeared on the [00:18:00] internet. That was Drake clapping back, meaning that he was coming back at these guys, some pretty significant, you know, shit talking in the world of, of, of hip hop had some things to say. No one really knew whether this was or not, because remember The biggest AI song to date was Ghost Riders, Drake and the Weekend track that really in the beginning, everybody thought was in
Gavin
part real, at
Gavin
least
Gavin
the
Gavin
Drake part. Now, Drake, this track comes out. Everybody's confused or they're not sure what it is. Drake has gone on Instagram and acknowledge something.
Gavin
But
Gavin
when I
Gavin
say
Gavin
he acknowledged
Gavin
something, he put up a picture of Uma Thurman from kill bill, which is that whole movie is about revenge. Right? So he's coming out. So we assume that that is a real track now. I think at this, as of right now, it has not been, confirmed fully. But then what happened was a Kendrick Lamar track came out afterwards, supposedly coming back at Drake.
Gavin
And that has been proven to be AI. And it confused a lot of people. And the reason I want to talk about this story is we've talked about on this podcast, many, many times how in the future, you're [00:19:00] not going to know what's true or what's not. And we always think, Oh, it'd be easy to tell. This is a perfect example in the mainstream of mass confusion,
Gavin
right? No one really knows who did what. And so. And we're not sure now, the Kendrick song supposedly is not as good as what Kendrick would normally do. So people call that out as AI pretty quickly. The Drake song was pretty good. So people thought it might've been real. And it turns out it might've been real.
Gavin
But there was
Gavin
and
AI4H053_a
the whole
AI4H053_a
thing is
AI4H053_a
dumb.
AI4H053_a
No. The whole thing is silly, and I'll
AI4H053_a
tell you
AI4H053_a
why. Like,
AI4H053_a
oh, oh, I wrote a mean song
AI4H053_a
about you?
AI4H053_a
We've
AI4H053_a
been doing that
AI4H053_a
for decades.
AI4H053_a
let's
AI4H053_a
up the game. Like, release a, like a
AI4H053_a
a dis Roblox world. know, like,
Gavin
why
Gavin
don't why don't you craft a metaverse? Give me a Minecraft
AI4H053_a
mod. my, you go
Gavin
into my Fortnite world? Yes! wrappers almost. Sure. And world. Yeah. And you stomp on people. Yeah. Gimme some UGC, unlockable cosmetics. If I hang out for your meta
Gavin
diss. I will say, the fact that Drake shouted [00:20:00] out how short Kendrick is, I felt bad. Short Kings out there.
Gavin
We love you. We're sorry. I, people should not be making fun of people for being 5'7 I I don't think that's fair in I
Gavin
just
Gavin
think
AI4H053_a
get something more exciting
Gavin
than
Gavin
just
Gavin
an
Gavin
mp3
Gavin
file.
Gavin
I, again,
Gavin
and this is just a question of like, it's a point of how AI is affecting not just
AI4H053_a
in the AI
Gavin
but the overall world at
AI4H053_a
large.
AI4H053_a
And
AI4H053_a
because of
AI4H053_a
friggin Elvis? We might not even get to enjoy
Gavin
AI
Gavin
fakes
Gavin
anymore?
Gavin
Because
Gavin
of frigging.
Gavin
Elvis?
Gavin
That's
Gavin
right. So
Gavin
Tennessee is the first state in America to pass a law that is against AI cloning, basically.
Gavin
And it's called the Elvis Act, which is Ensuring Likeness, Voice, and Image Security Act. And it's called Elvis because it's from Memphis, which
Gavin
is where
Gavin
Elvis is from. , and the idea here is this is a state trying to get ahead of the idea of this AI voice thing. Obviously Tennessee is also where Nashville is, right?
Gavin
Where the country western music world exists and [00:21:00] kind of is born from. I think that you're going to see a lot more of these things come at a local level. Some people say that well enough. And I think we're We're going to have to see what is federal law versus state law look like in this instance, but
AI4H053_a
well,
AI4H053_a
here's the part, can
AI4H053_a
I get into the
AI4H053_a
murky water part? Because it's one thing to say, Hey, you can't clone a voice, even
AI4H053_a
if you're
AI4H053_a
doing
AI4H053_a
a
AI4H053_a
close impersonation of it, that's not allowed, here's the part where it gets
AI4H053_a
murky.
AI4H053_a
It, quote, creates liability for anyone who makes available tools whose primary purpose is
AI4H053_a
replicating an individual's voice or image without authorizing it. Authorization.
AI4H053_a
That's a handful of words that paint a very, very, broad target on a bunch of different websites, a bunch of different tools, a bunch
AI4H053_a
of
AI4H053_a
different things that already exist today
AI4H053_a
who
AI4H053_a
just allow you to create things.
Gavin
But
Gavin
who's
Gavin
the
Gavin
primary
Gavin
purpose
Gavin
is
Gavin
or
Gavin
isn't
Gavin
to
Gavin
clone
Gavin
somebody.
Gavin
This
Gavin
is where we go again with AI law.
Gavin
It's going to be really hard because people are going to be making these laws that have no idea really how these tools are used. [00:22:00] They just see the end product in the bad way, right? the, what's the worst version of how this could come out. And then you back the law up against that. And suddenly you might have things that feel like they should be fine and they're not anymore.
AI4H053_a
Yeah. There's going to be a really weird set of first
AI4H053_a
amendment arguments with stuff like this. could this law
AI4H053_a
apply to stuff that
AI4H053_a
already
AI4H053_a
exists that has already been released, if so get ready
Gavin
for
Gavin
a bunch
Gavin
of
Gavin
tools
Gavin
and
Gavin
services
Gavin
to get
Gavin
11 labs is going to
Gavin
have a really hard time with this kind of law
Gavin
because 11 labs allows you to clone anybody right now.
Gavin
Conceivably right now. I don't know what their, you, uh, you ULA says or what
Gavin
their laws
Gavin
say
Gavin
inside, but like I can take any audio and clone any audio within now. And that might
AI4H053_a
change,
AI4H053_a
you know, fun
AI4H053_a
fact.
AI4H053_a
Someone recently, had an issue with their Eleven
AI4H053_a
Labs
AI4H053_a
account because maybe someone cloned a
AI4H053_a
pop
AI4H053_a
star,
AI4H053_a
let's say Taylor Swift, for their AI
AI4H053_a
podcast Wow, really? And, and got
AI4H053_a
hit with an audio
AI4H053_a
fingerprinting issue
AI4H053_a
and was told to submit additional proof the original voice had to be
AI4H053_a
reading
AI4H053_a
a
AI4H053_a
Special consent paragraph.
Gavin
Oh, wow. That's new. That's very, that's
Gavin
new. certainly
AI4H053_a
is
AI4H053_a
new,
AI4H053_a
Gavin.
AI4H053_a
Certainly is. wouldn't allow somebody
AI4H053_a
to use the model
AI4H053_a
that they cloned of
AI4H053_a
Taylor Swift
AI4H053_a
for for a speaking
Gavin
were doing
Gavin
in a
AI4H053_a
Floridian
Gavin
location.
Gavin
Somebody.
Gavin
somebody
Gavin
could not use that. That's true.
Gavin
Okay. Before we go away from the news, there's one last very dumb story. And I feel very sad, pour one out. for the geek squad.
Gavin
Best buy has said that they are laying off people, including geek squad members and replacing them with AI. One thing people talk a lot about with jobs right now is like, supposedly there's all these jobs out there.
Gavin
And yet a lot of people we know are not working. And it's kind of a big thing. I think what you're going to see over time is companies continually finding ways to use AI, whether it's going to be better or not. And probably not better in the narrow down their And that's just the world we're going to be
AI4H053_a
In the long write up about the fact that the geek squad is getting let go, it references several times that sales across the board at Best Buy are just down, right?
AI4H053_a
Geek squad is there [00:24:00] to support the products that they sell. Obviously they can support other products, but primarily you buy something. They try to upsell you a protection
AI4H053_a
plan, right? So if your sales are down, It's not AI's fault necessarily that your sales are down. Are they trying to use AI to mask this?
AI4H053_a
Or are they trying to provide an additional service or something while using it as
Gavin
a coverup?
Gavin
Well, I will say this, the Geek Squad's main experience is you're there to help very inexperienced technical people through their technical journey, right?
Gavin
Now, sometimes the Geek Squad does go to a home and set stuff up, but a lot of it is phone, or a lot of it is like in person question asking. Right. That is a pretty obvious replacement spot for chatbots right now. This is what I was getting. They may not be nearly as good right now. But chatbots can do that job in some form or another.
Gavin
Now, it was, I don't know if they can help my mom figure out her file system on her Mac. And I can't either. So thank God. the Geek Squad is not gone yet.
Gavin
Let's just put it that way.
AI4H053_a
chat bot is going
AI4H053_a
to write a diss track and
AI4H053_a
start slamming your mom.
Gavin
No, please
Gavin
don't.
AI4H053_a
I'm telling you. coming after them.
Kevin
Well that's the news.
Gavin
We, this week, uh, we do not have any Ico hosts. We are sorry. It is, whenever we are on the road, it's a little bit trickier for us to do the back and
Kevin
forth. flight hotel. It just doesn't amortize. Soon
Gavin
we will have a team of twelve people that travel with us wherever we go, who can set up our studio room ahead of time. So nice. That's not right now. We're getting there soon.
Kevin
I like 'cause like the rock when he flies anywhere. Yeah. Do you know he, there's a separate plane
Gavin
that brings his
Kevin
that brings his gym and sets it up. I want that for ai. I want that for our podcast. That'd
Gavin
could just go from the hotel to hotel and set up the, all we need is probably a 50 million
Kevin
Yeah, or
Kevin
50 million more listeners. So make sure you like,
Kevin
subscribe, leave a comment,
Kevin
and share it. But Gavin, every week you and I dive through
Kevin
various AI feeds, looking for
Kevin
gems that we can unearth and bring the audience. And sometimes,
Kevin
a
Kevin
piece of content stops you in
Kevin
your
Kevin
tracks.
Kevin
It stops your scroll and it makes you say,
Kevin
Hey! Hey,
Gavin
see, I
Gavin
see
Kevin
what you
Kevin
did
Kevin
there.
Gavin
there. There was an incredibly viral clip that I want to make sure the person that created it gets a shout out. If you've seen the Little Yachty into almost
Gavin
everything
Gavin
else video, you'll see it on the YouTube video, but
Kevin
video,
Kevin
People are like, what? No, I saw a video
Kevin
of the Joker coming out on stage at a festival,
Kevin
dancing
Gavin
It was,
Gavin
somebody took a Little Yachty coming out on stage and they put the Joker on
Gavin
it, and then
Gavin
a thousand other things happened. Elon, uh,
Kevin
you know,
Kevin
Conan O'Brien. my
Gavin
O'Brien. All sorts of different people. So, what's
Gavin
cool about this is it was a meme template. It became a thing. But there was a person named
Gavin
AI
Gavin
Warper who was the first person to post the actual video and showed what they [00:27:00] did.
Gavin
And Kevin,
Gavin
this is using a tool that we talked about in the show. It's using Vigil. So if you remember, Vigil really specifically takes the image of something you see a video, Allows you to take a single image and then marry it onto the video so that the video suddenly looks like the image itself.
Gavin
So in this instance, AI Warper,
Gavin
and it wasn't
Gavin
just that for this, there's a much longer detailed workflow that we will link in our show notes, but they used Vigil to take the Joker, a photo of the Joker, and then put it on little Yachty's body. And it's very
Gavin
fun because how often you get to see the Joker walk out at like a big festival
Gavin
perform. I do
Gavin
want to also say. If you are sharing people's videos on social media, please shout them out. Because
Gavin
one of the things that I find
Gavin
myself so annoyed by is that a video will take off like this Joker video took off so many AI people or people are just posting the
Gavin
at this
Gavin
incredible thing, looking for the engagement, find the original
Gavin
video. It's there
Gavin
most of the time in the thing, the person that made it. Just at them,
Gavin
show them a little bit of love and
Kevin
that they There was a time in the internet where like the [00:28:00] e bombs world, if you will, there were these sites that would just rip off video content,
Kevin
would cover up
Kevin
watermarks, and people would
Kevin
get mad.
Kevin
like at
Kevin
least give me credit.
Kevin
We are so far away from that now, where everybody just reposts everything. We gotta Get back to that. So, name and shame the people who don't name and credit the originators. We're gonna do that
Kevin
right now. A person by the name of John
Kevin
Finger posted a workflow that made me say,
Kevin
Hey!
Gavin
I
Gavin
see what
Gavin
you did
Gavin
there.
Kevin
See?
Kevin
you did.
Kevin
fingers. I got
Gavin
fingers. John
Gavin
Finger.
Gavin
John Finger posted a very
Gavin
John Finger, Jane Finger, Paul Finger, George Finger,
Kevin
Ringo finger. Which
Kevin
is where, which
Kevin
is where your jewelry goes. On your Ringo finger.
Kevin
John Finger had a sketch 2 animated 3D model workflow that
Kevin
I really
Kevin
dug and he shared how he
Kevin
made it and
Kevin
it was very cool If you check out
Kevin
the video, he sketched
Kevin
pieces of a robot in Procreate, which is like an iPad drawing tool He
Kevin
then took that and transferred the
Kevin
style in Magnific, which is an AI up resing tool
Kevin
He then converted those 2D images to 3D [00:29:00] using 3D
Kevin
AI Studio.
Kevin
He took performance capture with
Kevin
Move AI, which looks at a human body that's
Kevin
moving about and creates the motion from it, and then camera tracked everything together in Cinema 4D.
Kevin
And what you get, if you see the video
Kevin
version of this
Kevin
podcast,
Kevin
Is John sort of standing there, as a full 3d robot behind him is moving about
Kevin
animated to his movements
Kevin
that
Kevin
again, he went from a sketch on an iPad and then using AI tools and
Kevin
techniques along the way, turned it into a fully motion tracked, amazing looking 3d model.
Kevin
And this is what we are always screaming about
Kevin
when we say. Learn these tools and start adapting your own
Kevin
techniques because
Kevin
there is not a single tool
Kevin
there that is going to replace an artist. But there
Kevin
is an artist there that is going to be made a thousand times more productive
Gavin
because they're
Gavin
leveraging
Gavin
these tools.
Gavin
That's right. And just a shout out again to Magnific, which I know we talked about early on. It's a paid tool and a lot of people are like, that's so much money. But
Gavin
I just saw
Gavin
this one today, which is pretty cool.
Gavin
It's [00:30:00] just a cool thing where you can take
Gavin
a sketch. You can take a sketch of something
Kevin
bring it to
Kevin
life. Whether it's a car or an architectural plan. Yeah,
Gavin
exactly. Like, so that's,
Gavin
that's such a really cool way. If you're an artist who like wants to sketch on me out and see what it might look like as a 3d model or what it might look as a low poly model.
Gavin
Style transfer, which you can do for free, and just to be clear, you can find ways to do this
Gavin
for
Gavin
free
Gavin
using Stable Diffusion, Compute UI. Magnific is really a wrapper that allows you to do it much easier. But style transfer is such a powerful tool. It really can open the door to so many things you can
Kevin
try.
Kevin
And the good news about a thousand people like us
Kevin
trying to cover this stuff.
Kevin
If you have an
Kevin
interest in
Kevin
doing something like a style transfer, you want to
Kevin
sketch something and see
Kevin
it appear as a 3D object
Kevin
that isn't exactly what you sketch, you can search YouTube. Someone will have a long form how
Gavin
on how to
Gavin
do it,
Gavin
likely
Gavin
for free.
Gavin
Well that's what the AI
Gavin
worker thing, I called out earlier that that person actually shouted out somebody that did a YouTube tutorial of their process and like they [00:31:00] actually linked to that specifically, which again, will link to them in the show notes. That is such a cool thing. 'cause when
Gavin
again, we talked
Gavin
about comfy UI last week with PERS beats.
Gavin
But compy UI can look really
Gavin
scary, but if
Gavin
you can go step by step through YouTube tutorial,
Gavin
both started this whole process,
Gavin
Just watch a YouTube video. You can get through this stuff, which is very cool.
Kevin
you you, you, do. Oh, I'm sorry.
Kevin
I think I got a text from
Kevin
the eighties.
Kevin
Oh, it
Kevin
says it's, it's time to talk about the dumb things
Gavin
we did
Kevin
with AI this week.
Kevin
So we're going to talk about a couple of things here. I'm going to start off. We're going to talk about
Gavin
the music AI. stuff, because we've talked a lot about Suno, there was a big kind of explosion in the AI world this week when another Suno competitor came out and there's a little bit of debate here.
Gavin
Is it UDO or UDIO? That's a question. It's spelled with a U not Y O U. So U could be something Right. Right.
Kevin
But it's audio, right? Without the A. So is it odd? Is it what now? I
Kevin
don't the
Kevin
audio. Yeah. do you do it? I don't, I, I don't [00:32:00] know
Gavin
Maybe it's radio with a U minus RA,
Gavin
Oh
Gavin
God.
Gavin
Okay,
Gavin
sorry.
Gavin
We're diverging here. What UDO is, is essentially the exact same thing as Suno. Now, when it first came out, I think I was a little bit like these guys fully looked like they just lifted a lot of what Suno
Kevin
was
Kevin
doing.
Kevin
Correct.
Kevin
From the
Kevin
UI
Kevin
Also, maybe not their fault,
Kevin
but
Kevin
the early AI hype machine built this up. I mean, if you were on X or even on TikTok, even some threads posts about this. revolutionary new tool that was going to slam dunk Suno and, it's going to up end music industry forever. It was
Kevin
unnecessarily unrelentingly
Gavin
hyped
Gavin
days
Gavin
before it
Gavin
actually came
Gavin
out. Now I
Gavin
dug into it over this weekend and there's some really interesting things about it that separated from Suno. Now I want to say Suno, we love, we've been using for, for now six months plus. It is very fun. D3 is as good as a music generation has got.
Gavin
I want to tell you kind of things that separate and I'll kind of talk about what I did. So
Gavin
the very first
Gavin
thing I noticed on UDO was [00:33:00] that it was able to extend songs in a much cleaner, simpler way than, than, you know, now, if you're not familiar with these services, please go try them. First of all, they're super easy and super fun.
Gavin
All you really have to do is say, I want a song about this thing,
Gavin
hit generate,
Gavin
and you get a song back about it. Put a, put a genre in.
Gavin
And if you're at all written songs before I tried to write little fun songs, you can make your own lyrics and it will generate to that.
Gavin
So, with Suno, you can extend or you can make them longer but it was never like the perfect scenario. With Udio, what I have found is it gives you a 30 second chunk when it comes out, and then
Gavin
you get,
Gavin
you can extend it and when you extend it you get the exact same song music wise.
Gavin
You can
Gavin
add lyrics and then it attaches another chunk of
Gavin
time.
Gavin
And it actually
Gavin
gives you two choices to make sure that it turns out the one you like,
Gavin
but I was able
Gavin
to create a two and a half minute
Gavin
song.
Gavin
Which was not super doable on Suno in the
Kevin
first
Kevin
place. No,
Kevin
your
Kevin
song was really coherent
Kevin
to
Kevin
it. It really
Gavin
felt like it
Gavin
was
Gavin
all
Gavin
the
Gavin
same song
Gavin
throughout.
Gavin
Yes. So we talked about what the song was.
Gavin
I'm a [00:34:00] fan of like Outlaw Country from the 70s. I had seen a lot of big TikTok channels, but by the way, you know Vinyl, which we talked about,
Gavin
Right
Gavin
now has a song that is going like crazy viral on TikTok,
Gavin
let's say this. I'm not sure what we have to bleep if any of it.
Gavin
There's a song called I glued my balls to my butthole again. If you're on TikTok and saw somebody. Responding to this or commenting on
Kevin
this, song.
Kevin
Or if you're on your, your family Facebook group And someone finally
Kevin
said,
Kevin
I feel
Gavin
It's exactly what they're
Gavin
talking
Gavin
about. So anyway, I
Gavin
took, I
Gavin
wanted to create a song and I didn't spend a lot of time thinking about this, so just so nobody judged me, but I
Gavin
made a
Gavin
song. That was basically about a guy who was in a bathroom without toilet paper,
Kevin
right? .
Kevin
.......And so I
Kevin
you're right what you
Kevin
know,
Kevin
Right.
Kevin
What, you
Kevin
know,
Kevin
and when inspiration hits you gavin I'm, sure you immediately
Gavin
that's take
Gavin
the laptop.
Gavin
We're gonna tell the story. We're not gonna tell the story about what happened. [00:35:00] But, so I wrote basically a, a, a verse and a
Gavin
chorus,
Gavin
right? And I wrote the verse and chorus and I put it into UDO and there was a version of it that came out.
Gavin
when I played it the first time, I was like, oh, that's very cool. And then I wrote another verse and a chorus and I put those in. And what's UDO is it just seamlessly continues the song. So it, it does take a while really to get the right thing. Like any AI tool, I spent a lot of time going through this and trying to figure out how many generations.
Gavin
So it took me probably about 15 generations. The first time to get the right sound, to get the right voice, to make sure it understood the words. I also then tried to do this with Suno. And I have to say, [00:36:00] UDEO had a slight better overall feeling to me, music wise, than Suno. And this is no diss on Suno, because I think they're really cool.
Gavin
But
Kevin
do you mean the actual
Kevin
fidelity of the audio, the quality? Yeah, a lot of people are saying that. The
Kevin
tracks that are
Kevin
still, they're still, they feel like
Kevin
a
Kevin
64 or 128k mp3
Kevin
file. They're still a little tinny and washy, but at least with
Gavin
I think it's stereo. Yes. And it's a cleaner
Gavin
That's exactly right.
Gavin
And another couple things that UDEO does is it does do, the voice stuff, which
Kevin
The comedy
Kevin
samples.
Kevin
The stand
Kevin
up comedy samples, which came out, which are We'll do a little
Kevin
here,
Kevin
maybe.
Kevin
Yeah. we have
Kevin
really is astonishing.
Kevin
The extension feature that you're talking about is great for maintaining that coherence of a song. But what I really love is they posted an example of a quirky, campy polka ish song or strings orchestral fun. And then it's the same song, but it [00:37:00] immediately transfers into this thrash death
Kevin
metal, crazy electric
Kevin
guitar
Kevin
wall of noise.
Gavin
And one of the best things I found on UDEO, you may have heard this is there's an incredible musical rendition of the do about Dune and
Gavin
it's about Paul Atreides.
Gavin
And we'll play a little bit of that here, but this was like one of my favorite things. It was like. That sounds like a recording at a
Gavin
Broadway
Gavin
show
Gavin
of some sort of like the, whatever, the 1969 version of the Paul Atreides song from
Gavin
Dune that never existed,
Gavin
existed. You can play with it for free right now.
Gavin
I don't
Gavin
know how long these are gonna be free. Free in this way. I mean, obviously you can pay for more [00:38:00] and I did start generating and churning through my Suno and UDO credits this weekend and I can tell.
Gavin
Okay, see if I
Kevin
to pay
Kevin
for
Kevin
this.
Gavin
Yeah, but there's a lot of free credits when you first start.
Kevin
I
Kevin
had a boys
Kevin
trip to Joshua Tree this weekend, Gavin,
Kevin
and
Kevin
I about
Kevin
this. I do,
Kevin
well, I at least want to talk about using Suno, because at first everybody
Kevin
was very confused, and like, Kevin, please stop talking about AI, that's all you've done.
Kevin
Since you got here. I mean, yeah,
Kevin
and it's bad because it does permeate everything
Kevin
But then I started just casually
Kevin
in
Gavin
the
Gavin
background
Kevin
making
Kevin
songs about
Kevin
whatever
Kevin
was happening
Kevin
in the moment You know Getting lost on a hike or
Kevin
the playing with a walmart toy that we got.
Kevin
Oh, by the
Kevin
way
Kevin
Tangent have you played tangents? with the little
Kevin
spheres that have the drone propeller inside of them.
Kevin
So they're like 10 bucks. It's a single propeller from a drone that can kind of, like, it kind of self balances, but not
Kevin
really. But it's inside of
Kevin
a throwable little sphere. And so
Kevin
you,
Kevin
you
Kevin
kind of throw
Kevin
it up into the air, but hold onto it and the
Kevin
motor
Kevin
kicks
Kevin
in. And then
Kevin
you can
Kevin
float it
Kevin
to your friends or do big Arcing
Gavin
Wow. [00:39:00] So
Kevin
we
Kevin
were
Kevin
a
Kevin
bunch
Kevin
of
Kevin
40 plus
Kevin
year
Kevin
olds throwing
Kevin
in various states of sobriety, passing a Walmart toy around, but we wrote love ballads to the
Kevin
Walmart toy.
Kevin
so it's a fun thing to do that will now forever be memories for us having
Gavin
songs
Gavin
to
Gavin
go
Gavin
with
Gavin
photos
Gavin
of us
Gavin
having a
Gavin
good
Gavin
time
Gavin
That's actually a really interesting because people talk
Gavin
I mean, I don't
Gavin
do this But I know so many people in the world want to create these like kind of memory packages of
Gavin
things that happen
Gavin
You can now create a song for the time you went
Gavin
to Orlando,
Gavin
or you can create a song for the time your buddy got dumped at
Gavin
some night at a
Kevin
bar.
Kevin
cool I, I, played with COSXL, C X L. not,
Gavin
the Cos show, is it? The Cos?
Gavin
no. Good.
Kevin
no,
Gavin
God. Thank God. Thank God. Just making sure.
Kevin
different
Kevin
Different place.
Kevin
COS XL is a stable diffusion wrapper. So it lets you, manipulate
Kevin
imagery.
Kevin
You
Kevin
can also
Kevin
generate imagery from within
Kevin
it,
Kevin
but
Kevin
basically you just use text.
Kevin
to edit a photo.
Kevin
And it's surprisingly good. in
Kevin
the car when I was playing with it,
Kevin
on the way to
Kevin
our speaking engagement,
Kevin
I
Kevin
threw a photo of you in there, Gavin.
Kevin
I was like, what do we want to do with this? You said, give me a goatee. I did not expect it to give you a realistic goatee in the slightest bit. And it did. And then I put a tiny sombrero on your head. And then I put you on the beach. And when I say I
Kevin
did all these things in the past, this might
Kevin
mean
Kevin
having to like, use an in painting tool and mask out a person or draw
Kevin
boxes around
Kevin
someone or something.
Kevin
This is just natural language editing. And it's an early form of it, but this is going to be really powerful stuff when you can just have an image of your friends and say, Hey, I want. Mickey Mouse ears on that person and let's change their shirt and let's do this. Let's do that. You're just using natural language.
Kevin
It's understanding what you want. It is
Gavin
editing
Gavin
the
Gavin
image
Gavin
and it's giving
Kevin
you the final result all in the
Gavin
same
Gavin
app.
Gavin
When this gets into the Apple Google ecosystem, it will make [00:41:00] an impact in the same way that Suno and UDO are now making an impact because it's music. People can do this. That's exactly what people really want is like, they don't want to go in necessarily learn how to in paint and do all this other stuff.
Gavin
They want to put Mickey on their
Gavin
friend and
Gavin
be able to knock it out. And I think, again, this goes back to like, there's a lot of companies trying to do this, but the most powerful company would be is like apple to have a thing in your
Gavin
photo
Gavin
just says exactly. Yes. want cowboy hats
Gavin
Yes.
Gavin
done.
Gavin
Yeah. And that's coming
Gavin
for sure.
Gavin
Like, not hard. Now, who
Gavin
owns the cowboy
Gavin
hats? I don't know. This is a question we'll have to figure out, Kevin.
Gavin
The
Gavin
cowboy
Kevin
hat industry might be very upset.
Gavin
upset about this. It's time for our five star reviews. We are shouting out the people that have given us five stars on Apple podcasts.
Gavin
We have two new ones, Kevin, for this week. The first one is from Toddles123. So Toddles, Hi, Toddles. The topic here is here's your stars. Now earn it.
Kevin
Oh
Gavin
My dad figured out how to leave a review. Okay, what do you want?
Gavin
He says the more popular the show gets, it seems you get less [00:42:00] weird. And that's no good. Let the new listeners walk in blindly to a space. Cowboy all hopped up on the monster milk. If they don't like it, they don't belong here in the first place, but my bet says they will.
Gavin
So stay weird and bring back the monster milk.
Kevin
I love a criticism that's been
Gavin
candy coated.
Kevin
And a
Kevin
nice five star shellacking, Toddles. He just knows this is the way to get our
Kevin
attention. Yeah, well it worked.
Kevin
We are here, you are seen, you are heard. And if you're wondering
Kevin
why there's not so much extra weirdness, at least in today's
Kevin
episode, it's because we are on
Kevin
location and we've been a little bit out of sorts as we travel about to do these things. But yes, more monster
Gavin
milk
Gavin
and
Gavin
in 2024.
Gavin
You have our guarantee and our acts. There is a, there
Gavin
was a song about no toilet paper, which is semi weird that you can go listen to. I think has some
Gavin
good moments in it, but not
Gavin
nearly
Gavin
weird
Gavin
enough. He has a point. He has a point. He has a point.
Kevin
Okay.
Gavin
one is from. Finish sandwiches,
Gavin
Finish like the
Gavin
country finished sandwiches. Oh, not
Gavin
like you
Gavin
not finished. Not,
Kevin
not
Kevin
unfinished.
Gavin
Right.
Kevin
Finish, finish.
Gavin
And it says cutting edge topics.
Gavin
Oh. I actually
Gavin
don't use Apple Podcasts. I listen from YouTube, nor do I use AI.
Kevin
I'm curious
Kevin
to
Kevin
know where this
Kevin
is
Gavin
this is going to go.
Gavin
I don't doing
Gavin
here.
Gavin
How
Gavin
do I make these
Gavin
two
Gavin
men
Gavin
stop?
Gavin
My ears hurt,
Gavin
but I
Gavin
downloaded Apple podcast and asked AI to help me write this review
Gavin
because I've
Kevin
a
Kevin
Oh, prayer hands, prayer
Gavin
listening? Apple?
Kevin
Did he use
Gavin
Uh, Probably not. Okay. So we
