Back in Barcelona at the ADC Europe AI Creative Summit, just as the Awards Gala was about to kick off, I snagged some time with Fera and David from Mashed Potatoes — fresh off their talk about building an AI agent to replace their poor creative director. It’s funny, nerdy, and borderline unforgettable. Get a taste of what you missed if you weren’t there. You’re welcome.
Oh, and this is our first time unleashing the new ADC Talks look. Big thanks to Younique Studio for the new style, and huge thanks to Drop Audio and Golden Parazyth for the new music theme. Apologies in advance for possibly using the visuals upside down and for butchering the sound by sneaking in the old ADC Talks jingle. Old habits die loud.

And finally, here's an episode generated by Notebook LM plus a little test you can take yourself.
I was inspired by an article shared by Justė Kostikovaitė following Mantas Velykis' post about an AI-generated Coca-Cola ad and the diverse reactions it sparked. The article discussed the AI Turing Test for art (here’s the link: How Did You Do on the AI Art Turing Test?). Notebook LM generated an impressive podcast between two virtual hosts in just five minutes using the link. While it can be a bit annoying how synthetic hosts try to complement each other, the podcast itself is decent, covering most of what was in the article. Of course, I wouldn’t want to hand over the podcasting business to AI so easily. But for repurposing content for personal use, like listening on your way to work - why not?
Let me intrigue you or spoil the surprise: we can only tell with 60% accuracy whether something was created by a human or AI. Even people who work with AI tools daily make mistakes! By the way, after reading the article, I wanted to take the test myself, but unfortunately, the study had already ended.
So, I hope Scott Alexander (the author of Astral Codex Ten) won’t mind that I went ahead and created (with some AI help) an HTML version of this test. It’s just the test, not the study. No data is being collected. The original study with 11,000 participants sounds representative enough. Want to give it a try? http://milkplayground.com/art_turing_data/
