Why Artificial Intelligence Is Suddenly Everywhere Free Lunch by The Peak

    • Business

Between ChatGPT generating limericks in the style of George Costanza and Lensa turning your profile picture into a cartoon, AI seems to have finally broken into mainstream awareness in the past few months. But what's going on below the surface? How did the technology advance to this point? Who has been funding its development, and how does it actually work?
We dig into all of those issues (and other very basic questions we had about the technology) in this conversation with Ryan Khurana, Chief of Staff at WOMBO [www.w.ai], a Generative AI for entertainment company whose app Dream [www.dream.ai] won the Play Store App of the Year in 2022.
