Thank you Emad for such an amazing conversation. If you're seeing this and like it, we would love it if you could spread the word – send it to friends, post about it – anything and everything helps!
Stunning.. what an amazing future we’re looking forward to.. I feel that these models are opening doors for many new forms of creative expressions beyond what we’ve now.. thanks to the people like Emad who’re leading the charge.
"my stomach tells me I'm a loyalty member in spirit" I literally started cracking up, that was hilarious
A fantastic episode – Emad is engaging and his enthusiasm about AI and the potentials of AI is so infectious. Aarthi and Sriram do such a good job keeping the conversation going while allowing Emad to go really deep.
I find Emad's vendetta against PowerPoint hilarious.
great podcast !
he's a very intelligent man
listenning to him is like conforting, to know the future, and to know it would be beautiful for once
Thanks for your interveiwing!
brilliant dude
In the beginning was the Prompt.
Totally amazing Emad. Good questions to tease out Emad’s intuitions.
Sir do not redeem
This man is willfully ignorant of his massive copyright theft and exploitation of private data in his A.I systems. His complete apathy towards what he is doing to artists is especially despicable, being completely out of touch with the aspirations of creatives and the process behind making art.
He must be made destitute, and his maliciously-abused tech utterly destroyed.
The implication (and now reality) of something like StableDiffusion for artists such as myself is that we're more or less going to be out of work. I work on commission as a character designer, right now, and I've already encountered several instances where people have simply paid a subscription fee to something like NovellaAI and received dozens of near-perfect character concepts for barely a tiny percentage of the cost of what I or any other human artist can produce.
Great Interview !
17:52 i'll take that as a story that never happened
17:04 Emad you're a fucking narcissist
"People like talking to you if you are interested". People liked talking to you because you were an Oxford student, dude. The chances of having your journey in life, if you have been graduated in Britain, decrease significantly if you have not studied at one of the top universities, including ICL and UCL. It does not stop to amaze me how blindfolded people are.
Can’t wait to see him in prison for being the biggest art theft known to mankind.
Stop stealing artwork
