Try Agents & Models on SimTheory: https://simtheory.ai

In our final episode for the year, we cover the surprise announcement of Google's Gemini AI models and give our first impressions. We road test Gemini Pro on Bard and discuss the likely impact of Gemini on the market and developer ecosystems. Then it's time for our holiday gift: SimTheory. Now you can use AI agents we mention on the show including our virtual girlfriends, Sports Betting with AI and many more! You can even create your own agents to try different models using the same tools we use to prepare for the show. We then discuss if Ilya is OK and the drama at OpenAI. And finally, we make predictions for 2024 and cover some of Meta's latest announcements.

Thanks for watching, listening and all your support through 2023. We really appreciate it and will see you early next year!
