Would You Listen to AI Generated Podcasts?
Recently, Google launched the ability to generate a podcast conversation from an article. I was curious if it worked & I tried it out on three recent posts.
The output could fit into any radio show or podcast I’ve listened to. It’s not perfect: there are no intros or outros. But the “hosts” chuckle, ask questions, interplay in human-like ways. The AI even references images in the post.
The Ghost in the Machine : Invisible Ads in Generative Search In this episode, the AI injects a related concept that I don’t mention in the post : native ads. Native ads are ads that are designed to look like the content around them. The core idea of the post - advertisers paying to influence the results of a generative AI search engine - are, in fact, native ads.
Interwoven with Initia : There’s a good dialogue between the AI. They reference a pasted image & the contents of the image - in this case a schematic of the Initia stack. There are some inaccuracies : the AI references TVL (total value locked) as cash, which isn’t exactly right in this case, but it’s close.

I could imagine a very near future where readers machine generate podcasts for themselves or publishers produce these at scale.
Would you listen to a machine-generated podcast of some of these posts? Let me know in the comments below.
We’ve also been using AI to generate podcast-style audio content and even fully AI-crafted videos from our content. It's been fascinating to see how AI can craft engaging dialogues and even debate against itself. While it's still evolving, we’re excited about its potential to help businesses scale personalized communication and connect with their customers on the topics that matter to them. I’d be interested to hear more about your experiences and insights. Feel free to check out our work at https://www.clearmacro.com/video. Would love to hear your thoughts!

5 个月Fascinating insights, Tomasz! The idea of generating podcasts from articles opens up a whole new frontier for content creation and consumption. I love how AI is evolving to create more dynamic and human-like interactions in formats like podcasts. While it’s still in its early stages, as you mentioned, with some inaccuracies and missing intros/outros, the potential for personalization is incredible. One exciting possibility is allowing users to fine-tune the tone or depth of the conversation based on their preferences. For example, more detailed technical breakdowns for experts or simplified summaries for casual listeners. We could also see AI adapting the content depending on the platform, making it more engaging for different audiences—whether for a formal podcast or a more relaxed conversation style for social media. The future of machine-generated content could go beyond passive listening, incorporating interactive features like Q&A sessions, where listeners can ask questions and have the AI respond in real-time. This could blur the lines between content consumption and active engagement. I’d definitely be interested in seeing how this evolves—there’s so much potential here!

5 个月Yes, I don't think I would differentiate. Though I suppose I do like to listen to human voices and get the emotion behind the thought.
