What an amazing episode. As a founder and mum of 2, so inspired by you Claire! 🤍💫

You wont need inspirational leadership when 90%+ of your team is actually ai

This was an epic interview. Thank u both very much!

So basically another ChatGPT wrapper with a custom agent prompt.

This was terrific. Thank U both! -j

All of your videos have been awesome, but I have to say this one IMO is by far the best! Loved her real world examples and her down to earth style, particularly the last section on how she uses ai with her kids. Keep these coming!!

Really enjoyed this episode, very inspiring!

PMs are such yappers, Jesus

Very entertaining and informative!

Great episode! Enjoyed how Claire is building AI apps with her kids.

Totally love the projects She did with her kids. Really beautiful.

brilliant

I love the transparency and humble approach to brilliance!

What a delightful, exciting, intelligent guest!! Great choice

Loved every part of this conversation. Probably my favorite episode yet. When Robin was speaking about the Stanford project that allows you to move fluidly through the embedding space it reminded me of the way I’ve been using Krea (incorrectly?) to co-create images. It basically gives you access to a kind of swimming pool of pure AI hallucination, which is fascinating. I use one to two word prompts, add images to the user side of the screen which AI then interprets based on the prompt. At that point you can dive into the pool and play and explore and move your images around pixel by pixel, leading to completely new hallucinations. You come across threads that fascinate you and speak to you and lead you in entirely different directions than you had been heading. I’d been in a creative block for years and it has completely broken me out of it. I think the models’ hallucinations are their strength, not their weakness and learning to guide those hallucinations is a “skill set” that isn’t talked about enough.

When sharing the prompt, does the UI get shared with it?

"Tapestry of Knowledge". This guy sounds like the human version of ChatGpt.

I have a question, is notebookLM

What I don’t like about google apps is that they are in perpetual beta and it can be scrapped at any time. There should be a way to be able to export the data to another LLM

awesome

John Vervaeke and Jonathan Pageau have been part of many interesting AI convos

00:00 I remember when I first saw ChatGPT output writing...it was like so exciting but it also made me really afraid. Impact on Human Intellect 00:32 We've long defined the difference between humans and animals as being about the intellect. 00:35 Aristotle: The life of the intellect is the best and the pleasantest for man...a life guided by the intellect is best. 00:45 Anton Chekhov: The intellect draws a sharp line between animals and man and suggests the divinity of the latter. 01:04 If you're reading this, you probably put a lot of stock in what you know and its ability to let you do your job. 01:15 If AI can write and worse think, what's left that makes us unique? Changing Perspective on Knowledge Work 01:36 LLMs are going to change how we think about knowledge work...how we think about ourselves. 01:42 These days I'm not actually scared. I'm actually more excited and curious and filled with wonder. 02:05 The intellect is that thing that humans uniquely have that animals don't. Understanding Intellect and AI 02:34 The intellect is this gigantic combination of different brain processes that are lumped under a single heading. 03:03 In order to regain our sense of self, we need to create a new sense of separation...redefine intellect to make it work in an AI-driven world. 03:34 Technology can help. Psychology is full of these fuzzy concepts like the intellect. The Role of Lithium in Redefining Concepts 04:05 The drug lithium...helped us pull apart two things that we previously thought were overlapping. 04:39 In the late 1940s, a doctor named J.F. Cade...discovered that the urine of manic patients was toxic to guinea pigs. 05:08 When he ended up injecting the lithium carbonate solution into the guinea pigs, he noticed that they became remarkably calm. 05:38 Lithium resolved their mania. It differentiated manic depression from every other kind of mental illness. Applying the Concept to AI and Intellect 06:35 Once we understand what ChatGPT is and what it does, we can use it to redefine and clarify our previously fuzzy concept of the intellect. 07:08 Technically, ChatGPT does next token prediction...language models are really good at reformatting and reconstituting old knowledge in new and useful ways. 07:38 Language models aren't very good so far at discovering new things...they are incredible at taking the sum total of human knowledge...and bringing it to bear in any given situation. 08:06 ChatGPT is a great summarizer...the sum total of human knowledge currently outstrips any of our abilities to actually use it. The Value of Summarizing 09:04 The emails that I write are primarily summaries of meetings that I've had...articles that I write are mostly summaries of books that I've been reading. 10:01 Once I start thinking in this way, I actually start to subtract summarizing as a skill that is part of my intellect. 10:56 ChatGPT is sort of a lever that becomes a new lens on myself and on the world. Human Adaptability 11:24 We tend to define ourselves by what we do differently from other things, and that sense is adaptable. 11:57 Many jobs are primarily about summarizing today, and those jobs might change dramatically. Cultural Influence on Human Development 12:23 William Buckley...tells the story because it teaches us something about how human beings change in response to their culture and the technology they're surrounded by. 13:21 Henrik argues that humans have evolved brains that allow us to most effectively learn...culture rewires our brains and alters our biology. The Future of Human Identity 14:19 ChatGPT is the latest in a long line of cultural and technological advances that have changed what it means to be human. We don't need neural networks fro AI to tap into our biology, its already doing that in profound ways, especially cultural ways.

Thankyou both for the excellent video. I live in Australia and so we now have access to NotebookLM. I've tried it and I'm very impressed-and I'm rarely impressed nowadays.

Probably need to use ChatGPT to count how many times you said “like” cuz I honestly lost the track

As excited by this development as I was 30 years ago when I walked into the internet.

Fantastic! Questions for Steven Johnson - When you save a quote: Is the note also saving a link to the quote in the source? - You mentioned saving your prompts: What about having a feature to favourite a prompt? This would amount a simple snippets feature.

Excellent interview

I read The Infernal Machine, and it is very interesting and educational and entertaining! Highly recommended.

Wow this is crazy

feels like Vannevar Bush's memex! incredible.

Awesome! But, how about the powerful "audio overview" function as advertised by Josh Woodward during the recent google i/o event? I noticed it wasn't among the recent notebookLM update. Any info on that??

Another banger!

So entertaining - Love your happy contact to <3

Exciting work. Via Wikipedia I learned that today, 6 June the release date, is also Steven's 56th birthday! Great way to celebrate. Happy Birthday, Steven!

I'm very interested to know when the mobile app will be develop/release. It's a great tool but I would like to access directly from the app instead of Chrome mobile

It's so depressing notebook LM is only available in the US 😢

The dream of the interconnected note system

Love the this show's vibe

yesssss

wtf awesome

That guest list is incredible! 🤩 Reid Hoffman, Steph Smith, Tyler Cowen, David Perell! Wow!

This looks awesome, Dan! Congrats on the launch! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Great promo 💪

This is a Preview of a Massive Banquete for the Brain

This is 🔥🔥🔥

This is %100 true, how have not more people seen this, Also who is the lady talking?

Recipe jifs? You mean recipe gifs?

Writing prompts isn't film making or creating. It's just lazy.

"artists" breaking into the market wanting to make money with tools that are trained on stolen data is the biggest hypocrisy right now... good luck

Perhaps try to look beyond just race?
