Bon Voyage For Real | Generative Or Degenerate AI?

Time to travel again but with a new perspective.

In Episode #449 of 'Meanderings' Juan & I discuss: doing a handstand retreat with Lucas Branco & Miguel Sant'ana, why Juan and I are struggling to stick to our yearly goals, playing with dogs and babies, crazy people who run super long distances, the nitty gritty of trying out Venice.ai, why I think AI will have an impact and be useful, the importance of fundamental human values but also being pragmatic in how technology is implemented.

Huge thanks to Petar & Cole McCormick for supporting the show. We really appreciate your contribution!
