Today, more than 670 MILLION people have some form of interaction with Artificial Intelligence companions like Replika, XiaoIce, Mitsuku, and so on.

That's 670 million people different from the users of ChatGPT, Bard, Midjourney, and others.

In this podcast, we delve into the details of the challenges posed by our interactions with AI companions and the characteristics of the two most popular ones: Replika and XiaoIce.

We explore how Artificial Intelligence redefines emotions and relationships.

We examine the profound challenges, dangers, and opportunities that await us in the era of AI companions.

Join me on this podcast journey where light and darkness intertwine in a complex dance of multi-layered stories of AI humanoids, from the futuristic "Blade Runner" to the world of "Her" (2013) and the reality of transhumanism in "The Creator" (2023).

I asked the famous Artificial Intelligence ChatGPT the following very specific topic question related to the upcoming LRM 1200km brevets for the next 45 days after May 25th 2023.

Look what an answer I got!?!... I'M IMPRESSED!!!

The Artificial intelligence is the new Internet... :) - a strange statement, but I absolutely agree with it! :)

By this statement, I mean the fact that after the official launch of ChatGPT at the end of 2022, we faced a truly significant change of second order and embarked on a new path.

Personally, I believe this change is comparable to the emergence and penetration of the Internet in the mid to late 1990s.

Very few people still realize and fully comprehend the new fundamental change that is already an undeniable fact.

Artificial intelligence is here to stay and grow with us, there is no going back!

The capabilities of Artificial Intelligence at this early stage of its creation and development are IMPRESSIVE.

Only a few of us can even imagine the fundamental changes in our lives and daily routines that the emergence of Artificial Intelligence will bring.

On December 7, 2023, Google officially announced the launch of two new artificial intelligence models, named GEMINI and GNoME.

Google GEMINI is a multimodal language model alternative to the well-known ChatGPT from OpenAI. 

It can process text, images, audio, and video in the already familiar way.

On the other hand, Google GNoME is a model for researching and creating new materials and substances.

Wow! Sounds super cool, right! :)

Everything would have been great if only a day after the conference where Gemini and Gnome were officially announced, the community exploded with great disappointment over some blatant manipulations and outright lies from Google.

Blatant lies and manipulations in the presentation of Google Gemini...
