Toward 'local' AI w/ Apple's new chip

This is a guest post from IWAI Insights contributor Nyasha Green. To get all our most in-depth analysis and 10% off all our programs, try Innovating with AI Insights today. ••• Apple is making a big push into AI with its newest iPad – and it could be a turning point in the quest for local AI. This was one of the biggest challenges for AI hardware like the Ai Pin and Rabbit R1, which struggled with finding the balance between running local models (which produces mediocre results) and talking...

Hey Reader, Today I'm excited to share an article from IWAI contributor Nyasha Green. Nyasha is a LinkedIn Learning instructor and software engineer, and a frequent co-host of our new Innovating with AI Insights podcast. Enjoy! Coverage of the Met Gala, known for its extravagant fashion statements and star-studded guest list, was flooded with viral AI-generated images of celebrities this year, despite many of the featured stars not being in attendance. Katy Perry and Rihanna were two of the...

Tech Adoption Curve

Hey Reader, Another week, another implosion from a handheld / wearable AI company. Last week we talked about the extremely negative reception for the Humane Ai Pin: one popular tech commentator, Marques Brownlee, suggested it was the worst product he’d ever reviewed. Today it’s the Rabbit R1, which absolutely tanked in The Verge’s test drive. Here’s their review video, including lots of cringe-inducing image-recognition and logic failures. Three months ago I detailed my skepticism about both...

Hey Reader, I never would have predicted this, but a huge percentage of Innovating with AI Incubator students have a background in medicine – from MDs to psychologists to medical equipment salespeople. They all face the same challenge: how do you keep your data private while interacting with AI? This is especially important for people who need HIPAA compliance (medical data privacy laws) and its international equivalents. But we all want to do as much as we possibly can to protect ourselves...

Hey Reader, Building an AI smartphone replacement is a tall order. We saw the Rabbit R1 attempt this feat – and despite lots of preorders, I'm not sure that device is going to make a dent in any market other than "people who buy lots of early-stage AI products." And at the behest of my Incubator students, I bought the AI-powered Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses, which are chunky and uncomfortable but do technically play music and allow me to talk to Meta's large language model with voice commands....

Hey Reader, I'm excited to share a new (free!) podcast episode – I sat down for 90 minutes with Zack Arnold, the founder of Optimize Yourself and an acclaimed film and television editor who's worked on shows like Empire, Burn Notice, Glee and Cobra Kai. Listen Now 🎙 We talked about AI, the metaphors and explanations I've discovered that make advanced machine learning easy to visualize for everybody, and what's coming for film, tech and other industries in the next year. Here's the full...

Hey Reader, Last week I shared how it took me 6 months to invest in myself, but, once I did, $5,000/mo became $1M+ per year. I also shared how six students, were, like myself, skeptical of investing in their ongoing education, but then went on to be featured case studies in our Innovating with AI Incubator. Today, you get a chance to meet those discerning learners and hear from them in their own words. But first, I noticed something…whenever I talk to students who are in the process of...

Hey Reader, Next week, we’ll be hosting our 3rd and final AI Demo Day – our AI Incubator student showcase, where our Innovator students show all the cool stuff they’ve built using our AI Incubator curriculum. Personally, it’s something I’m really proud of, because from our cohort of 75 new students that started in January, we have a 98.7% success rate. And for students who joined our private mentorship program, the success rate was 100%. It’s made it clear to me that what we’ve got is...

Hey Reader, Three months ago a new cohort of students joined the Innovating with AI Incubator – but not without first considering all the AI education options. Over the past two weeks you saw 8 of them present their brand new AI prototypes at Demo Day (replays here). They turned their AI ideas into reality in less than 60 days and become part a community of like-minded creators. At IWAI, we're building a community of doers – that is, people who take action rather than just passively reading...
