Thank you very much many thanks to all the readers who tuned in live to take part in the second part of our Q&A series focusing on artificial intelligence. I was excited to see so many questions coming in leading up to the event, as well as all the questions that were thrown into the chat during our conversation.
Missed the show? We’ve got your back. Below is a replay of that event that WIRED subscribers can watch at any time. Also, the live broadcast from the first one is available here.
I started the chat with some quick demos showing how to use image and voice features built into chatbots, including an example of how it is possible to interact with them ChatGPT’s advanced voice mode as a kind of Duolingo-style language learning tool. For a deeper dive into some of the live issues we’ve discussed, I suggest checking out my AI advice column for December, addressing questions about proper attribution of generative tools and how to teach the next generation of AI.
If you’re interested in experimenting with AI-assisted note-taking, here’s a link to WIRED interview with Raisa Martinthe former senior product manager at Google who helped build NotebookLM as an experiment inside the company before leaving to focus on her own startup. The podcasts NotebookLM can create two AI hosts discussing your files is fun and surprisingly useful.
All beginners who are just getting into AI and experimenting with it should sign up for Season 2 of our AI Unlocked newsletterwhere I help guide you through various AI tools and how to approach the technology.
