Exploring the Limitations of AI in Podcasting: when my narcissistic designer’s bias is feeding AI audio?

Posted by

I have tested a new AI Podcast app functionality from Google NotebookLM called ‘Audio overview’.

Listen to this AI-generated Audio guide of kinokast.org

=> Beware of my obvious personal bias that translated into AI bias in maximized marketing grandiosity, very north Americanized?

AI generated conversations look still very much like this bad ‘Stock photo’ picture below. A painted-in picture of dehumanized, cloned-happy visual details of several lose puppets.

You don’t get much better results without adding more credit. This is proof enough of AI serious systemic limitations: it’s sheer cost.

But what about the critical loss of truth?

This AI Podcast should not be consumed without solid self-irony & sane self-respect.

The AI English (very Americanized) Podcast-like synthetic conversation is a quick test maybe a caricature-sketch first draft?

I produced it in a few minutes with the free version of NotebookLM. Topic matter is taken directly for the homepage of this kinokast.org website…(Yes, I only gave it the url as source of information! No special editing or prompting was made.)

You are warned: watch out for repetitions. Be cautious of complete aberrations as to my supposed genius. Also, look out for automatic overstated smart marketing formulas. It’s just an AI after all.

It’s AI’s fault!

This AI Podcast should not be consumed without basic skills in critical thinking and grounded sense of humor.
