Description

Welcome to this Mini-Series on The Grand Challengers Podcast! The topic of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has been in all our minds over the past few years and is gaining even more momentum with rapid advancements in text, audio and video. Google's NotebookLM is a powerful research-support AI that can generate not only summaries of sources that we feed it, but also entire podcast episodes. This Mini-Series will explore the power of NotebookLM, our live reactions to its outputs... and a deep dive into some of the topics that we have covered on the show. We feature previous guests, who are here to join in on the fun!Episode #9 attempts to explain a study on metal-doped microplastics in three ways, for experts, for the general public and for children - Denise Mitrano (ep34) reacts to how NotebookLM produces a deep dive discussion at three levels of complexity on her scientific article in Nature Nanotechnology. Will NotebookLM be able to capture the essence across all levels? Or will it lose the meaning and nuance in its simplification?Podcast Intro/Outro Song: Funky Fortune by Danny Shields (Check out more of his tunes over on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7vRFEGMyTTfeCtc8qiUB82?si=dygdqu9IQLSFYNvVzPNu5w)Chapters:0:00 Intro1:26 Guest Intro & Catchup in a new city3:35 What this mini-series is about5:29 Guest's prior experience with AI8:24 How this experiment works10:33 The human summary & expectations15:03 Live Reaction on Version 1 - Experts28:43 Live Reaction on Version 2 - General Public40:29 Live Reaction on Version 3 - Children52:58 Post-discussion56:15 Thoughts and wishes on the future of AI57:04 Wrap up57:32 OutroDetailed shownotes over at: petermbach.com/podcast for more in-depth information about each episode.Join the community over at: linkedin.com/company/tgcpodcast and let's connect across the world!Subscribe and listen to the podcast (and do please leave a review/rating) on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts from.
