Frank, Squeaks, and Thomas cover a packed week: dream casting for Netflix's BioShock movie, first takes on the Avengers Doomsday reveal out of Shanghai and what it signals for Doctor Doom in the MCU, Star Trek Day highlights and what the 60th anniversary year could look like, quick reactions to the 77th Emmys, why Warner Bros. Discovery is suing Midjourney, and fresh DCU talk after new Superman images and a 2027 date. We close with recommendations and a fast tour around the Geek Freaks Network. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, mid-week vibes, and today's lineup 01:14 Question of the Week: BioShock movie casting picks for Andrew Ryan, Atlas, Jack, and Little Sisters 07:02 Con updates: CrackerCon appearances, SDC Town Hall, LA Comic Con plans 08:22 Avengers Doomsday first look: Doom's armor, magic tech blend, symbols, and power-level stakes 19:42 Star Trek Day roundup: Starfleet Academy, preschool series on YouTube, scripted Khan audio series, LEGO collab, 60th anniversary plans, Trek cruise, and the Skydance chatter 34:37 Emmys 77 reactions: Studio's comedy sweep, Hacks love, Severance kudos, Andor writing win, and Hannah Einbinder's speech 41:27 WB Discovery vs Midjourney: what the lawsuit argues, fair use vs training, and where fan art fits 51:42 Superman Saga update: 2027 date, new images, Lex team-ups, Brainiac theories, and what to avoid with multiverse fatigue 58:34 Quick hits to watch for next week: TikTok U.S. buyout deadline, Disney + Webtoon digital comics platform 58:59 Recommendations: Foundation, Borderlands 4, Dimension 20 and Critical Role hype 01:04:34 Around the Geek Freaks Network and sign-off Key Takeaways BioShock casting drew strong picks like Cillian Murphy for Andrew Ryan and Gerard Butler or James McAvoy for Atlas, with Ewan McGregor floated for an all-voice heavy Atlas. The Doomsday footage suggests a Doom who mixes sorcery and engineering. Runes, sigils, and visuals hint at a villain who can carry multiverse-level stakes. Star Trek is gearing up for a busy 60th year with new shows, a kids series on YouTube to hook the next generation, a scripted Khan audio drama, and a LEGO partnership. Emmys 77 landed well for comedy and recognized top craft like Andor's writing. Studio earned the “actual comedy” praise many fans were looking for. The Midjourney suit could set important lines around training on copyrighted works. The show breaks down the difference between commentary fair use and model training. DCU chatter points to Brainiac as the smart next-step foil that forces a Lex and Superman team-up, while keeping the multiverse in check. Community notes: Geek Freaks will be out at events, and the Network has new episodes across the slate. Quotes “It looks comic accurate. More than I thought it would be.” “They're really good at visual storytelling in the MCU. This is the next facet of that.” “Studio is what The Bear pretended to be for years.” “We're in the early stages of the law. You have to scrape the edges to shape something that makes sense.” “Can we just not do the multiverse? Let's stay in this universe.” Call to Action If you enjoyed this one, follow and subscribe, drop a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and share the episode with a friend using #GeekFreaksPod.

Skulk! Comedian! Musician! Story-teller! Friend! Delight! More! Skulk and I have a great chat about this project and more! THE MANY INCESSANT LIVES & SUBSEQUENT DEATHS DESERVED OF SKULK, The HULKING is a fictional video podcast built on music, performance, storytelling, and Ai visuals. Following the War to End All Wars and having depleted most of our resources, all people - by choice or by force - move to The City That's Always Falling Apart to try and stave off extinction. Giant forces inhabiting this final city both personify our desires and attempt to sway our fates, but an oafish beast known as Skulk tries to save us all. At times dark, goofy, aggressive, honest, and full of hope, The Many Incessant Lives and Subsequent Deaths Deserved of Skulk, The Hulking explores the decisions we make as a people - an allegory for our globalized world, the weaponization of capitalism, and the age-old ‘problem' of the human condition. Skulk, The Hulking is an ogre-like dolt trying to help a world that has fallen apart, yet he seems only to find unique paths to an early demise, while an Earth - knowing unfortunately that he's the planet's last hope - keeps bringing him back to life. He is a giant force that represents us all, trying to figure things out, wading through the muckiest parts of life, fighting the forces that none of us have the energy to fight against, making the choices none of us wants to make, failing miserably, like all of us probably would. No one even wants him to do it but man, his hope just can't be killed…or maybe he's just an idiot. In this story, things are rarely all-bad or all-good. The audience is asked whether they approve of the reasons they do what they do and if the ends justify the means.  Characters in the podcast originally appeared in Skulk (the band's) live shows and music videos. Lady Baghead and the Followers of Baghead were originally depictions of Rene Magritte's surrealist painting “The Lovers”. Hammerhands, a wrecking ball of hate with hammers for hands was played in Skulk music videos by Henry Zebrowski (Last Podcast on the Left, Wolf of Wall Street). And Camelman - originally a prancing merrymaker in a camel mask who pulled popsicles from his whitey tighties and handed them to the concert crowd - has evolved into the gangly overlord of our tantilizing addictions. With visuals created using MidJourney, the ‘near misses' of Ai creation become a style. When creating with Ai, it is nearly impossible to recreate the same exact character with subsequent prompts. Yet since Skulk is constantly dying and being re-born out of whatever material the earth can find at the time, these glitches are given context and woven into the tale. The differing looks of the central characters becomes commentary on how we all appear differently based on the observers' biases, and of course all Ai is ‘nurtured' by our culture's biases. Each podcast episode ends with Ai-altered music videos from Skulk (the band). Says Skulk (the artist) “I believe people fight against Generative Ai for the wrong reasons. It is a tool. How, not if it is used is the question. I believe what people actually want is regulation of Ai.  It is when it can be used for harm that it gets sketchy.” The goal is to help the audience question, with a mind further-opended, why those in power, their enemies, and they themselves do and believe the things they do and believe.  MORE ABOUT SKULK: Skulk, The Hulking (Steve Pasieka) is a multifaceted artist whose creative journey spans music, comedy, and technology. Part of Chicago's improv scene in the early 2000s, he eventually co-founded the improv group pH. His commitment to his craft led him to train at renowned institutions iO and The Annoyance, eventually joining the iO house team, The Chorus, and earning coaching by improv legend Noah Gregoropoulos. After moving to New York, Skulk transitioned to music, founding Skulk, The Hulking - fusing theatrical performance, socio-political lyrics and dark electronic beats. Opening for iconic musicians like Capadonna of Wu-Tang Clan and C-Knowledge of Digable Planets, the project grew to a full band releasing three albums. Recently, Skulk has become a skilled user of AI tools, creating images through MidJourney, animating visuals with MotionLeap, and exploring the artistic potential of generative AI. He believes that AI, like any tool, is only as good as the meaning and care you put into it, which he explores in his most recent project. The Many Incessant Lives and Subsequent Deaths Deserved of Skulk, The Hulking brings together many facets of Skulk's past work in a fictional video podcast built on music, performance, Ai and storytelling.

Udover AI er der to trends, som tech-milliardærer interesserer sig for og dermed kaster store summer efter: Det evige liv også kaldet longevity og rejsen til og koloniseringen af Mars.Både i USA og Rusland har de dødsangste techmoguler fået følgeskab og støtte fra toppolitikere. Vi har været vidne til USAs førende Mars-agitator Elon Musks indtog i og retræte fra Det Hvide Hus. Elon Musk ynder ligesom Vladimir Putin at citere den russiske stamfader til moderne rumfart Konstantin Tsiolkovsky.Tsiolkovsky var en af ophavsmændende bag den russiske kosmistbevægelse lige før den russiske revolution , som udover kolonisering af verdensrummet også talte ikke bare om longevity men decideret udødelighed. En tanke som Californiens tech-elite senere har dyrket flittigt, og for nyligt afslørede Putin de samme visioner i en samtale med Kinas leder Xi Jingping.Techtopia tager i denne uge hul på en række podcasts, der sporer det russiske tankegods - kosmismen - fra Moskva til Silicon Valley. Drømmen om udødelighed og en backup-generation på Mars. Drevet af en urokkelig tro på teknologi som løsningen på en sygdom kaldet døden.Vi starter på et bibliotek i Moskva omkring 1880.

Thoughts on Apple's new generation of iPhones—which are genuinely exciting—and why the underwhelmed reaction from fans and analysts reflects choices that Apple made a long time ago and a new direction that lowers the ceiling on any release. From there: Mail on Apple's messaging and the competition in China, Oracle's strategy in the AI era, Midjourney and Meta, the strategic logic (or not) of Reality Labs investments, whether and how Netflix could attempt a Disney-ification (at the Sphere? via acquisition?), and a message to the Armageddon heretics.

Their open source data format lance has over 5K stars on GitHub and is a modern columnar data format for ML and LLMs implemented in Rust.LanceDB has raised $41M from investors including Theory Ventures, CRV, and Essence VC. In this episode, we dig into:Early focus: autonomous vehicles; solved real-time analysis limits with Lance format → 9,000% performance gain.Multi-modal AI taking off (vision, audio, text); Midjourney & Runway as pioneers; audio now a major category.How they built trust through open source.Integrated workflows (data prep + search + embedding) going beyond vector DBs; education needed to show full value.Cloud/serverless launch in 2023–24 enabled seamless local-to-production use.Future bets: audio infra, robotics, spatial reasoning; vector DBs risk irrelevance if they don't evolve.

Things get wild when Professor and DJ talk about stopping children from accessing in appropriate games.Warner Bros are suing Midjourney for ripping off their art. With the recent case against OpenAI for pirating books, the precedent might not be on their side. Science is hard to do objectively. There's always a bias, and good scientists find ways to minimise that. The Nerds talk through creating science to push a narrative, and why that's a bad thing. ***We enjoyed a nice drink of Rez which you can get a 10% discount when you type NERDS at the checkout from the Rez website at www.drinkrez.com ***Resources MentionedResources: Age verification crackdown (Valve introduces age verification for UK Steam users | GamesIndustry.biz, Roblox partners with International Age Rating Coalition to replace current maturity labels | GamesIndustry.biz, Steam games with adult content banned from early access, after payment processors force restrictions - NotebookCheck.net News Warner bros vs Midjourney (Warner Bros.

In this episode of Generation AI, hosts JC Bonilla and Ardis Kadiu break down A16Z's fifth annual Top 100 Gen AI Consumer Applications report, revealing how the AI app ecosystem has shifted from experimentation to consolidation. They discuss Google's aggressive entry with four separate products in the rankings, including Gemini's rapid rise to second place behind ChatGPT. The conversation explores how consumer AI has moved beyond novelty to become essential productivity tools, with specialized apps dominating specific use cases like image generation (Midjourney), voice (11 Labs), and the emerging category of agentic coding platforms like Lovable and Replit. The hosts also examine the global dynamics of AI adoption, including the significant presence of Chinese-developed apps and what these consumer trends mean for higher education professionals and their students.Opening and Mediterranean Reflections (00:00:00)Ardis returns from his brother's wedding in TuscanyDiscussion about taking time away from technology and workThe value of slowing down and gaining new perspectives on AI trendsThe A16Z Top 100 Report Overview (00:08:49)Fifth edition of Andreessen Horowitz's annual consumer AI apps reportBased on monthly active users on mobile and web trafficDifference between unique web visitors vs active users explainedFocus on consumer adoption patterns rather than enterprise AIMarket Stabilization and All-Stars (00:11:54)Only 11 new names on web list vs 17 last yearMarket maturity signals with winners consolidating positionsChatGPT reaches 700-800 million weekly active users14 brands consistently dominating across categoriesGoogle's Aggressive Multi-Product Strategy (00:17:00)Gemini takes second place with 12% of ChatGPT's web visitsIntroduction of Nano Banana image editing modelFour Google products separately ranked in top 100Strategic unbundling approach to compete across categoriesThe Rise of Agentic Coding (00:25:47)Evolution from "vibe coding" to "agentic coding"Lovable reaches #22, Replit maintains strong positionIntegration with Supabase for backend developmentReal work being done on these platforms, not just experimentationRegional Dynamics and Chinese Apps (00:29:19)22 out of 50 mobile apps are Chinese-developedDiscussion of China vs rest of world classificationChinese apps being exported globallyAI as a global technology play across regionsYear-Over-Year Changes (00:32:12)Deep Seek's rise and fall (down 40% from peak)Shift from novelty (2024) to utility (2025)Apple's crackdown on ChatGPT copycatsMobile list showing more innovation and newcomersVideo Generation Maturity (00:36:15)Google's VO3 dominates over SoraConsolidation in video generation spaceWorld models like Genie 3 emergingVideo becoming integrated into general assistantsImplications for Higher Education (00:38:01)Students already using multiple consumer AI toolsPattern of utility across companions, creativity, productivityNeed for educators to understand student tool usageRecommendation to explore top apps to understand student behaviorClosing Thoughts (00:41:20)Consumer AI adoption as mirror of society's AI integrationFocus shifting from smartest models to most useful appsEncouragement to test unfamiliar apps from the listPreview of fall conference season and upcoming AI announcements - - - -Connect With Our Co-Hosts:Ardis Kadiuhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ardis/https://twitter.com/ardisDr. JC Bonillahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jcbonilla/https://twitter.com/jbonillxAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:Generation AI is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

At long last, Patrick returns to the show. Suffice it to say, but Patrick does not share Rey's opinion about Peacemaker. Meanwhile, Episode 3 of Season 2 of Peacemaker was all about the best dimension ever. Chris spends a lot of time in this Episode learning that the grass might actually be greener...but is everything as glorious as it would appear to be? The guys break things down for you as we near the halfway point of Season 2. Meanwhile, the Trailer Park takes a look at more creepy stuff with the latest trailers for Black Phone 2 , 28 Years Later, Bone Temple, and Marvel Zombies. The fellas also discuss the upcoming Amazon Prime documentary covering the life of John Candy and how long the guys think it will take for the movie to wreck them absolutely. The guys also get you caught up on the biggest stories in the Nerdosphere, including another studio suing Mid-Journey, a possible Muppet Show reunion, a well-known animation studio going by the wayside, a new Lara Croft, and whether we should be concerned over a delay being announced for Jordan Peele's follow-up to Nope. Lastly....the guys have been saying #2027 for 5 years now, and some announcements this week have 2027 shaping up to be absolutely massive for the Nerdosphere. Curious?

The Midjourney Fast Hours crew hits episode 50…and immediately forgets to throw a party. Instead, Drew and Rory stumble into a killer trick inside the brand-new Style Explorer (yes, that hidden Smart Search → Styles move), while guest Allar Haltsonen cheerfully roasts their “we'll plan it later” energy and shows how RAW can completely flip a style's look. They blitz through v7.1 notes, v8 teasers, and real-world Midjourney Video settings (SD vs HD, Loop vs Motion) before going full Nano Banana: Freepik in-app inpainting, aspect-ratio hiccups, and a slick Photoshop plug-in workflow. If you care about consistent aesthetics, faster iteration, and finding SREF styles without burning credits, this one's pure potassium.Search hooks & keywords: Midjourney Style Explorer, SREF / SREF style codes, Smart Search trick, RAW parameter, v7.1, v8, Midjourney Video settings, Loop vs Motion, SD vs HD, OREF, Nano Banana, Freepik inpainting, Photoshop plug-in, fashion swaps, cinematic angles, moodboards, style weight, stylize.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour00:00 — Episode 50?! housekeeping + cold open00:06 — The “like & subscribe” bit (tell your mom, dog, everyone)01:19 — What's new + Allar intro; Office Hours headlines01:49 — Style Explorer lands (why it matters for credits)02:30 — How it works: SRF codes, Explore tab, filters (Top/Hot/Day)05:07 — The pain of saving/organizing favorite SRFs06:07 — “Did they rotate styles?” + early content observations07:13 — Preview layout (character / environment / object)08:11 — Surprise: RAW massively changes some styles10:38 — The curly-brace RAW syntax gotcha during live tests14:36 — Smart Search → Styles hack (the hidden gem)18:34 — Image as SREF, weighting, and moodboard workflows23:40 — Office Hours: v7.1, OREF improvements, draft mode, v8 path25:48 — v8 is the big model rev; video waits until v8 ships26:49 — Midjourney Video: manual vs auto; motion vs loop30:23 — SD vs HD trade-offs (costs, quality)33:04 — When to upscale before animating (text handling quirks)35:29 — Profiles, friend rooms, global rooms, prompt battles37:26 — Discord nostalgia: forgetting “/imagine” (oops)38:22 — Nano Banana deep dive: why it's workflow-changing40:40 — Where to run it: Freepik, KREA, Google AI Studio, Higgsfield41:01 — Aspect-ratio hiccups & hacks in Freepik44:15 — In-app inpainting & reference characters in Freepik45:00 — Nano Banana Photoshop plug-in (enable & flow)48:25 — Pro tip: consistency over heavy retouching50:54 — World-building workflows: zooms, angles, new actions53:20 — Consistency challenges: missing doors, mismatched details56:00 — Adding characters & branded clothing to complex scenes58:20 — Character sheets + compositing tricks for consistency01:00:09 — Compositing disruption: Photoshop harmonize & Nano01:02:12 — Time-lapse edits (dust, rust, lighting changes)01:04:39 — True world-building: multiple lives & story arcs01:06:28 — Keep/change prompt trick for Nano Banana01:07:09 — Pushing realism: Nano Banana vs raw Midjourney01:08:42 — New media: character-as-influencer storytelling01:10:20 — Rosebud & branching narrative experiments01:11:46 — Simulation talk: where storytelling is heading01:12:45 — Wrap-up

The internet's still broken, folks, and apparently, AI's here to make it more awkward. Intel caught a break from Uncle Sam's CHIPS Act, cool for them, not so much for those 'flashing warning signs' in the job market. Meta's been letting celebrity chatbots run wild (and creepy), Midjourney's getting sued by Warner Bros. for stealing IP (who'da thought?), and OpenAI thinks an AI hiring platform is a good idea. Plus, an AI chatbot automated a cybercrime spree, totally unexpected. If you're calling ChatGPT a 'clanker,' you're not wrong, but seriously? Your butt probably needs a break from the toilet.Elon Musk and his joyride of companies continue to make us wonder if we're living in a dystopian satire. Tesla got slapped with a $243 million verdict after rejecting a $60 million settlement (because that's how you make deals, right?). 'Key data' they said they didn't have? A hacker found it. His vague 'master plan' sounds like a last-minute college essay, and software deploys airbags before you crash. His quest for a trillion-dollar pay package is on, and Neuralink can't even trademark 'telepathy.' They're doing brain surgeries in Toronto now. What could go wrong?On the lighter side, Finland built a giant sand battery, which is cool, and iOS 26 finally gave iPads a native Instagram app after, like, forever. We've got movie reviews, TV binges (Wednesday is really good), and a deep dive into KPop Demon Hunters (seriously, listen to the songs). FIFA's jacking up World Cup ticket prices with dynamic pricing (of course they are), and Morrissey's selling his stake in The Smiths (probably to escape his own 'malicious associations').

Join me as I chat with Ben Benkhin, Creator of WOMBO, about how he built mobile apps that achieved over 250 million downloads by identifying emerging AI technologies and making them accessible through simple, user-friendly interfaces. His first app, Wombo, allowed users to animate selfies to sing popular songs, while Dream was an early art generator that predated tools like Midjourney. Ben emphasizes the importance of studying viral content formats and creating apps that help users easily produce shareable content.

Ever buy a “miracle app” that promised to automate your business, write your copy, and maybe even walk the dog… only to have it end up collecting dust in a folder called Someday? Same here. That's why this week Conor and I are comparing notes on the AI tools that actually stuck. These are the ones we've folded into our real workflows, the tools saving us time and keeping us sane when the content calendar feels relentless.From editing podcasts into social clips to spinning up client portals in minutes, these five tools are pulling serious weight in our businesses. We talk about Descript's new AI B-roll, what feels different in ChatGPT 5, smart ways to chain prompts for images, why Notion + Notion AI is so versatile, how MidJourney's video option is sneaking into our thumbnails, and where Perplexity and NotebookLM fit into our research and SOP systems. If you've wondered which AI apps are worth your time, you'll find some solid answers here.Key TakeawaysDescript remains our editing hub: Upload the recording, use Find Clips for cold opens, and try the new AI-generated B-roll right in the editor. ChatGPT is our daily driver: We use it for planning, drafting, brainstorming, and research. The new 5.0 update makes it noticeably faster and more direct, which keeps our workflow moving smoothly.Prompt chaining beats giant prompts: Build images step-by-step—create the base, then layer in overlays, text, or tweaks for more consistent results. Notion + NotionAI: Spin up client portals, SOPs, and shared databases quickly. The Save to Notion clipper and mobile share sheet make it easy to stash articles and ideas on the fly. MidJourney's new video option: Great for animated thumbnails, email GIFs, or short loops. NotebookLM for SOPs and team queries: Upload docs or transcripts, then let teammates search only your materials for answers. Keeps systems tight.

It's a token binge from shadow play, moonlight, GOBO shadows, datamosh, pixel smear, prismatic rainbow light streaks, and androgynous beauty plus where --exp actually makes images better (and where it ruins them). They also crack open token bashing (smashing words to birth fresh visuals), show why aspect ratio is half the art, and steal moodboard fuel from Cosmos.so.Then it gets dangerous. Nano Banana enters the chat, turning one still into dozens of consistent shots with plain-English tweaks. They compare video stacks and frames workflows (Veo-3, Kling, keyframes), talk Weavy automation, and use a real “Book of Jonah” case study (42 scenes, ~5k images) to show how fast this all moves (and where it still breaks). It's Midjourney's magic, but with receipts.Keywords: Midjourney tokens, token bashing, EXP settings, aspect ratio, mood boards, Cosmos.so, Nano Banana, Weavy, frames, keyframes, Veo-3, Kling, AI image generation, Midjourney video, consistency, creative workflow.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour00:00 — Cold open + guest intro (Marco Isle)00:35 — Marco's background: design → UX/UI → fashion04:48 — Aesthetics vs. mechanics; the cooking/technique mindset10:50 — “Rome Reimagined” + early Frames testing15:59 — Token bashing & Marco's custom GPT flow20:59 — Favorite tokens: shadowplay & moonlight21:32 — New token: gobo shadows (why it works)22:19 — Glitch looks: pixel smear & datamosh23:34 — Prismatic rainbow light streaks (stacking ideas)23:54 — Androgynous beauty as a control aesthetic25:22 — --exp sweet-spots (3, 7, 10, 13)27:17 — “Liturgical drift parade” prompt set30:24 — Why Aspect Ratio is everything34:12 — Idea sources: mood boards + Cosmos.so38:54 — Nano Banana enters the chat (workflow + why it's different)42:15 — Case study: Book of Jonah (42 scenes, ~5k images)43:03 — Video models: Veo-3 notes + start/end frame43:33 — Weavy & automation; setting guardrails50:00 — NanoBanana pros/cons; real-world limitations52:51 — Frames: Kling vs others; aspect-ratio flips55:11 — Aspect-ratio workaround (whitespace expand)57:47 — Keyframes consistency test (the car roll)---LINKS:Nano Banana—Image Gen Documentation: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/image-generation#prompt-guideMarco Isle on X: https://x.com/ai_artworkgenMarco Isle on Gumroad: https://markisle.gumroad.comDrew's 1% Midjourney Style Guide: https://dcbruck.gumroad.com/l/Midjourney-Course/ib3nsqs

Remember when we thought AI was going to bring about utopia or Skynet? Turns out, it's mostly just a bunch of fancy spreadsheets, a potential bubble ready to burst (looking at you, Nvidia), and a legal minefield. We're talking wrongful death lawsuits because a chatbot encouraged suicide, OpenAI admitting their 'safety controls degrade,' and then secretly siccing the cops on users. Plus, the Citizen app's AI can't even tell a murder vehicle from a motor vehicle, and Grok 2.5 is now open source if you want to invite that chaos into your life. Also, don't ask Google if 1995 was 30 years ago, because apparently, AI can't do basic math.Meanwhile, the adults in the room are just doing what they do: the U.S. government is buying a chunk of Intel, while Trump wants to "design" government websites (with badly edited photos, naturally). Meta's own AI stuff is so bad they're just licensing Midjourney's tech, proving it's always easier to buy than build. Apple TV+ raised its prices, and Spotify finally figured out how to let you DM songs. Over at Apple Fitness, it seems the execs are fostering a "toxic workplace environment," because who knew working out could be so hardcore? Oh, and Chipotle is doing drone delivery now. Welcome to Zipotle, because getting off your ass is apparently too much to ask.As for what we're actually watching, it's a mixed bag. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' documentary episode was... fine, but Paramount's axing jobs and "un-renewing" Dexter: Original Sin to focus on Dexter: Resurrection (because that always works out). We're trying to keep up with Alien: Earth, Wednesday, and Upload, but good luck with those staggered release dates. Apple TV+ has some good sci-fi, but Foundation might just be a hate-watch for Brian. And in the library, we've got Budgie's surprisingly depressing memoir and some solid sci-fi from Scott Meyer and Dennis E. Taylor. It's almost enough to make you miss the simpler times before AI broke everything.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - clnmy.com/Grumpyoldgeeks - Use code OLDGEEKS for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Google's Nano Banana is the best AI image editor we've ever seen & it bodes well for the future of Gemini going forward. But even better, it's actually useful in everyday life. In other AI News, OpenAI's new Realtime API improves its voice AI systems. It's also taking people back from Meta who is also doing a deal with Midjourney. YES, it's the CIRCLE OF AI…. Plus Unitree's robot carries heavy stuff, Krea's got a new real time AI video model, NVIDIA's cutting edge new algo that speeds up LLMS & yet another demo of our very own new start-up AndThen!  WE GO BANANAS.
