The Human Zero Day Series | Ep1164: Shaping the Future of AI Media with David Luebke
David Luebke traces his path from chemist-turned-computer scientist to Vice President of Research at NVIDIA. He recounts the breakthroughs in GPU computing, RTX ray tracing, and the moment StyleGAN first produced a human face so realistic it changed his career trajectory. That discovery sparked not only excitement but concern, leading him to explore authentication, attribution, and media forensics. Today, he argues that AI media is moving from parlor trick to utility, where the key challenge is less “real or fake” and more context, intent, and accountability. Looking forward, he envisions unifying physics-based graphics with data-driven AI to transform how images and interactions are created—while developing humanistic AI agents that can truly perceive, respond, and collaborate with people.
