Today on the show Steven and Shaun discuss new enhancements in AI vision, while Steven declares he will never eat chocolate again!
But the big story of the day is the developments in AI Vision, with both Google and Open AI launching the ability to use your camera to get real time information about your surroundings, with mixed results.
Shaun demonstrates the Gemini 2.0 vision feature during an early morning walk with his dog, while Steven talks about his experience trying out the new Chat GPT vision feature.
