Episode Details

What A SHOW folks, I almost don't want to write anything in the newsletter to MAKE you listen haha but I will I know many of you don't like listening to be babble.

But if you chose one episode to listen to instead of just skimming the show-notes, make it this one.

We've had 2 deep dives, one into the exciting world of multi-modalilty, we chatted with the creator of Moondream1, Vik and the co-founders of Prophetic, Wes and Eric about their EEG/fMRI multimodal transformer (that's right!) and then we had a DEEP dive into the new Hourglass Diffusion Transformers with Tanishq from MedArc/Stability.

More than 1300 tuned in to the live show 🔥 and I've got some incredible feedback on the fly, which I cherish so if you have friends who don't already know about ThursdAI, why not share this with them as well?
