Stop The World (AI Covers)

Whether you like it or not, AI music is the future, and that future will be slapping us in our faces sooner than we think.

Superstar Car Wash Deep Dive: The Podcast

This literally took me minutes to create. All I did was feed Google’s latest AI project NotebookLM with the more meaty blog post I have in here, which obviously is this one. A couple of clicks later, the AI had generated a full 11-minute podcast featuring a male and a female speakers having a vivid discussion about some of the trivia mentioned in the post above.

This is a sneak peek into how the coming future will look like, especially for content creators. I only fed one source as a way of testing the technology and it’s quite impressive so far. I will certainly utilize more sources in the future to create other podcast sessions, as a way to make this little blog a little more alive.

Keep in mind that NotebookLM is still in their beta phase, and it is not perfect. In fact, they get a couple of things wrong throughout the whole thing, but they manage to pretty much nail all the rest.

If you have roughly ten minutes to spare, listen to the AI-generated podcast below, as Joe and Jessica discuss what I consider to be the Goo Goo Dolls’ best effort to date.
