Myles Dhillon
About this episode

🎙 Episode Overview:

In this episode of AI for Everyone, we explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we communicate, create, and even celebrate the holidays. From public speaking tips enhanced by AI tools to a new wave of AI-generated ads and poetry that might just outshine Shakespeare, this episode has something for everyone.

🧠 Key Topics Discussed:

  1. AI for Public Speaking:
    • Learn how AI tools can transform your public speaking skills.
    • From real-time feedback on your tone and pacing to advanced writing assistants that help craft powerful speeches, we dive into the AI-driven resources that can take your stage presence to the next level.
  2. Coca-Cola's AI-Powered Holiday Ads:
    • What Happened: Coca-Cola partnered with AI studio Silverside to reimagine its iconic 1995 “Holidays Are Coming” ad.
    • The Reception:
      • Some viewers loved the nostalgia and innovation.
      • Others criticized the ads for feeling “cold” and “robotic.”
    • Why It Matters: This marks a significant step for major brands integrating AI into storytelling — but does it compromise the emotional essence of advertising?
  3. 🎥 Watch the Ads: AI Santa Coca-Cola
  4. AI Beats Shakespeare at Poetry:
    • The Study: Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh discovered that AI can write poetry that not only confuses readers but often surpasses human creations in quality.
    • Key Findings:
      • AI poems were rated higher on rhythm, beauty, and emotional depth.
      • When participants were informed the poems were AI-generated, their ratings dropped — showing the bias against AI authorship.
    • The Big Question: As AI continues to outpace human creativity in unexpected ways, what does this mean for art and culture?

Why This Episode Matters:

AI is no longer just about numbers and automation; it’s shaping art, communication, and even how brands tell their stories. This episode unpacks the opportunities and challenges as AI moves into these deeply human domains.
