AI Enters the Conversation
The intersection of art, science, and technology became even more intriguing when I discovered an AI-generated "podcast" discussing the Olo discovery. Created using NotebookLM with Google's Gemini 1.5 model, it featured realistic male and female "hosts" providing a surprisingly good summary of the technology and theoretical aspects.
WARNING : It runs for about 20 minutes and is worthwhile watching.
While the AI presentation contained inaccuracies—confusing device names with methods, occasionally getting technical details confused—typical misconceptions, like the Richard Dawkin's premonition of the discovery—it offered a far better starting point than the ill-informed clickbait posts "Scientist discover new colour" now flooding social media. The realistic conversation format makes complex scientific concepts accessible, but not totally trustworthy. Yet in this case, the so-called "deep dive" is impressive, hopefully the shape of things to come.
If you consider, yourself a careful observer you might spot telltale AI artifacts in the hosts' hand movements. Then again you might have already spotted the podcasts title "Deep Dive An AI Podcast" up in lights behind the presenters or the warning from YouTube "Altered or synthetic content" as the video starts.
Don't just accept what AI tells you—run it through your own filter first. Draw on your personal observations and whatever expertise you have, whether that's art, science, engineering, or any field you know well. AI is getting very impressive, but it's not infallible
