Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

131: How new color 'olo' stretches the limits of human perception
Q: I'm just wondering if our understanding of Olo and our ability to see Olo give us any understanding of how to change or expand our perceptions of sensory phenomena in general?

130: AI helped this paralyzed woman speak again after 18 years
Q: But how realistic is it, really? Does it sound and look just like Ann?
The output is somewhere in between realistic and robotic, with an improved delay response time.
