Is This the Death of Tutorials? Testing out Google AI Studio/Gemini 2.0

Could Google AI Studio and Gemini 2.0 make traditional tutorials obsolete?

In this video, I explore the “Stream Realtime” feature, which lets you share your screen and ask questions and get real-time instructions about what to do. From Microsoft Excel to Photoshop to AWS, we’ll put this tool to the test. I’ll show you how to access Google AI Studio, how it works, and what you need to watch out for (like keeping confidential data safe).

New AI Humanoid Robots SHOCKED The Internet: Unitree x Tesla Optimus x Figure

China’s Unitree H1 humanoid robots shocked the world by flawlessly dancing at the Spring Festival Gala, showcasing advanced AI-powered balance and coordination that rival Tesla’s Optimus. Meanwhile, Figure AI walked away from OpenAI to develop its own in-house embodied AI, while NVIDIA and Carnegie Mellon trained humanoids to move like pro athletes using real-world physics. The AI humanoid race is heating up fast, with Tesla, Clone Robotics, and OpenAI all pushing to dominate the future of robotics.

Daisy the ‘AI granny’ speaks to scammer: ‘I’m a bit lost now’

Daisy is not a real grandmother but an AI bot created by computer scientists to combat fraud. Her task is simply to waste the time of the people who are trying to scam her. Using a mixture of ambivalence, confusion about how computers work and an eagerness to reminisce about her younger days, the “78 years young” Daisy draws sighs and snapping from fraudsters on the other end of the line ‘Dear, did you say pastry?’: meet the ‘AI granny’ driving scammers up the wal

The AI Poison Pill – We Can DESTROY The Slop Channels

With a never ending influx of AI content thieves, and slop channels reposting plagiarized content, it looks like YouTubers finally have an easy mechanism of fighting back. Discovered by a YouTuber called F4mi, caption files can be converted through multiple formats, infecting a video with an indistinguishable payload of gibberish and nonsense which is undetectable to an average viewer, but completely destroys the ability for AI scrapers to correctly summarize or interpret the content. In effect, if used at scale, this can poison LLMs seeking to train on YouTube videos, and destroy the ability for low level content farmers to use basic AI summary mechanisms for stealing the hard work of real creators. While certainly not a finishing blow, its a way for actual creators to fight back, and make it substantially more difficult to operate an AI slop channel on the platform. Example videos. One is clean, the other infected with an AI scrambling payload.
