In Episode 4 of AI With Friends, hosts Marlon, and Sekou discuss the latest breakthroughs and discussions in the world of artificial intelligence.

  • OpenAI's DevDay Announcements: We explore the exciting launch of OpenAI’s real-time API, discussing how it enables developers to build voice-to-voice AI applications and what this means for the future of interactive technology.
  • AI-Powered Smart Glasses and Privacy Concerns: The team examines a recent project by two Harvard students who showcased how easily facial recognition can be integrated into smart glasses. We debate the privacy implications and the fine line between innovation and intrusion.
  • OpenAI's Record-Breaking Fundraising: With OpenAI closing a massive $6.6 billion funding round, we analyze the impact on the AI industry, the strategic investments from tech giants like Microsoft, Nvidia, and SoftBank, and what this means for competitors.
  • The Future of AI in the Workforce: We discuss a Harvard survey indicating that while AI won't replace managers, those who harness AI will outperform those who don't. We consider the implications for current and future leaders and the importance of integrating AI into daily workflows.
