This Week In XR December 8th, 2023 ft. John MacInnes, Filmmaker
About this episode
In the week's news was a flurry of AI announcements. Musk's Grok AI launches, and it has promise. A real-time connection to the Internet is valuable, even if it comes from Twitter. Meta launches Imagine, a very fast, very simple, text-to-image app, and other AI features. Google unveils a new, powerful LLM, Gemini, which will succeed Bard. Our guest this week is writer-director-producer John MacInnes, who is making a horror film using Unreal Engine for Fortnite (UEFN) with the support of Epic Games. The finished film will cost about 1% of a typical studio budget.
