  • E55 - Creative Intelligence and the Role of AI with Dudley Nevill-Spencer
    Jun 7 2024

    Today's conversation covers a wide range of topics related to AI, machine learning, virtual influencers, and the future of technology. Dudley Nevill-Spencer, Chief Innovation Officer at Live & Breathe, shares insights on a variety of topics, including Audience Intelligence AI, virtual influencers, and the impact of AI on the future.

    The discussion also delves into the potential of quantum computing, the role of regulation in AI, and the importance of creativity in the future.

    Takeaways

    • Audience Intelligence AI involves using language analysis and meta-language analysis to understand the emotions and psychology of target audiences for effective advertising.
    • Operational AI involves using AI to improve performance metrics of operations within a business - so job ‘x ‘, like writing a brief, normally takes 16 hours; with operational AI, it takes you 8 hours and is twice as good.
    • The use of AI in creative intelligence allows for the generation of multiple images, words, and stories to aid in the creative process, although it is not yet at the point of perfect ad output.
    • The development of virtual influencers and virtual assistants owned by brands has the potential to revolutionise customer engagement and brand-consumer relationships.
    • The future of technology, including quantum computing and AI, presents both exciting and challenging prospects, with the need for regulation and a focus on creativity and human touch.
    • Encouraging creativity and storytelling in children is essential for preparing them for a future where human creativity and individual ideas will remain crucial.

    And to answer the quantum computing energy question, I found this: "Today, quantum computers’ electricity usage is orders of magnitude much less than any supercomputer, and this is counting all the different quantum architectures available." (Link to the full article below)

  • E52 - Our First Birthday & AI's Pivotal Year with Wo King
    May 17 2024

    In this episode, David Brown interviews the show's first guest, Wo King, CEO of Hi9, on the first anniversary of the Creatives WithAI podcast.

    We discuss the advancements and narratives behind AI, the role of effective altruism, the challenges of ethics in AI, the power dynamics within the tech industry, different perspectives and biases of AI models, and the need for individual control over AI. We also speculate on Google's potential announcements regarding AI and YouTube, highlighting the advantage Google has in terms of data and infrastructure.

    Takeaways

    • The advancements in AI technology are not as interesting as the stories and narratives behind them.
    • Effective altruism, the idea of using data-driven thinking to create a better society, is a key concept in the AI space.
    • Ethics in AI is a complex and ongoing debate, with different perspectives and biases influencing the development and use of AI models.
    • Individual control over AI is not just a concept; it's a crucial reality that ensures diverse and inclusive outcomes. This control empowers each of us, as AI has the potential to provide disadvantaged individuals with access to knowledge and services that they wouldn't have otherwise, instilling a sense of empowerment and control in our audience.
    • AI isn't just a buzzword; it's a game-changer. It has the potential to revolutionise areas like education, finance, and healthcare by offering personalised assistance and guidance, sparking excitement about the possibilities in our audience.
    • It is important to let AI go and not restrict its potential under the guise of ethics.
    • Google's advantage in terms of data and infrastructure could give them an edge in the AI space, particularly in video streaming and assistance.

  • E51 - The Debate on AI-Generated Art: AI as a Tool vs. AI as Art with Lena Robinson
    May 10 2024

    Lena Robinson, founder of the online FTSQ Gallery, discusses the intersection of AI and creativity. She shares how her unconventional upbringing shaped her passion for the arts, emphasises the importance of creativity in all fields, including business and technology, and highlights the ongoing debate in the art community about whether AI-generated art can be considered true art.

    Takeaways

    • Creativity is not limited to traditional artistic skills like drawing or painting; it also includes creative thinking and problem-solving.
    • AI can be a powerful tool for artists, allowing them to explore new concepts and bring their visions to life.
    • The acceptance of AI-generated art is still a topic of debate in the art community, with questions about its authenticity and artistic value.
    • The artist's skill, vision, and ability to craft their ideas are still essential in creating meaningful and impactful art, regardless of the tools used.
    • AI can enhance and complement the creative process, but it does not replace the artist's role in conceptualising and executing their ideas. Depending on one's perspective, AI can be seen as both a tool for creating art and a form of art itself.
    • Art that challenges traditional definitions and provokes thought can be found in unexpected places, such as Tracy Emin's bed installation and Marcel Duchamp's urinal.
    • The future of AI in the creative field is uncertain, but it is likely to follow patterns seen in previous technological advancements, with the establishment of ethical guidelines and regulations.
    • While AI can provide unbiased and balanced responses to ethical questions, it lacks true empathy and instinct, which are unique to human creativity.
    • Data can be valuable, but relying solely on data may limit creative decision-making, as instinct and gut feelings play a significant role in the creative process.
