    in_NLP - ChatGPT

    This was one of the trickiest of the projects that we worked on with NLP and ChatGPT, searching for a piece of software that could really interpret voices was unsuccesful and we landed up using a TTS plugin that managed to voice the part of ChatGPT.

    One of the interesting aspects about asking questions of a "robot" is trying to pull the emotion out of the enquiry. It has become apparent that bringing emotion into a question is a very human thing. It really twists your brain when trying to consider what to ask.

    in_beauty - Dr Jan Nel

    In the first podcast in the beauty series we spoke to Plastic Surgeon and all round good guy Dr Leslie Berkowitz. We highly recommend going back and listening to that pod, but its not essential to listen to before todays episode in which we spoke to  Dr Jan Nel, better known as Cape Town Doctor. 



    Dr Nel is a GP and Aesthetician who works with non-invasive procedures. 



    These procedures have in many ways replaced plastic surgery, and aestheticians offer a rapid same day treatment which can address some concerns you may have about how you look. 



    We spoke to the Doctor about his experiences in his field, his response to the ethics of beauty in a Social Media age, as well as the holistic importance of his work.

    in_fans - Author Nikoloas Kirkinis

    Nikolaos Kirkinis' love for South African football began as a youngster, as his conscious father encouraged his engagement with the country that he lives in, rather than football from foreign climates like most other white South African kids. His bond with SA football has resulted in a successful career as a football writer with fans of his own. Go buy and read his books, he wrote them specifically with the non-football fan in mind. These are South African stories of tragedy, romance, comedy and action told through the lens of football.
