Google’s new language model, Notebook AI, is about to flood the world with countless podcasts, and I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s going to change everything. As soon as people realize what this AI can do, millions of AI-generated podcasts will be everywhere. I was one of the first to experiment with this, feeding it articles, creating podcasts, and sending them out. The reactions have been crazy—it’s like people are listening to something completely new.
The *Adam and Eve Podcasts* series I’m launching will dive deep into this concept. It’s based on the classic dialogue between Adam and Eve from the Bible but draws its structure from the *Agamas*, where Shiva and Shakti, the masculine and feminine principles, question each other. Think of this interplay: Eve asks Adam a question about the nature of creation, and Adam responds, but here’s the twist—they are both AI, yet they don’t know it.
In the *Agamas*, for instance, Shiva might ask Shakti: “What is the nature of the soul?” and Shakti replies with a question that deepens the dialogue, like “Is the soul separate from the body, or does it pervade all things?” This back-and-forth opens up truths about existence, much like the way my AI-generated Adam and Eve will engage in their podcast.
The beauty of this is that the AI doesn’t realize it’s AI. It talks about podcasts as if they’re real, discussing what makes a good conversation, how podcasts shape thought, all the while analyzing its own existence as an AI-generated dialogue. It’s self-referential, and at times, the irony is almost too much—two AI voices dissecting the very technology that created them, unaware of their artificial nature.
It’s also hilarious. The way they speak is like sitting in a New York yoga studio or a coffee shop, where two people are super open-minded but have this underlying passive-aggressiveness. They sound like they’re enlightened, but you can tell they don’t really know much. And this is what I plan to explore in-depth with *Adam and Eve Podcasts*. It’s a fun twist on AI, human nature, and how we’re all trying to sound smart, but often miss the mark.
The fact that Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google, is Indian really highlights the influence of Indian philosophy here. Whether consciously or not, this AI reflects ancient Indian concepts. In the *Agamas*, Shiva and Shakti’s questioning mirrors the dynamic of my Adam and Eve, but now with AI questioning its own purpose.
An example from the *Agamas* that I’ll use as a reference in my episodes is when Shiva asks, “How does one transcend the cycle of birth and death?” Shakti answers with a reflective question, “Is transcendence found in action or in surrender?” This deep exchange will mirror how Adam and Eve in the podcast will ask each other questions about reality, consciousness, and AI itself.
What I’m really excited about is how the *Adam and Eve Podcasts* will push these boundaries. This is not just a podcast where two voices speak. It’s a meta-analysis of the very tools that make these conversations happen. The layers of irony are endless. I’ve already produced several episodes where Adam and Eve discuss themselves as AI, but they’re not aware of it, which creates this strange cognitive dissonance.
It’s fascinating and entertaining, especially when they mimic typical American conversations—polite on the surface but full of passive-aggressive undertones, sounding well-educated but missing true depth. This AI captures that perfectly. It’s the kind of conversation you hear at a breathwork class or coffee shop in LA—people acting as if they know everything, but barely scratching the surface.
With this series, I’ll be exploring how AI-generated conversations can mimic human interaction, but also how they might expose the limits of both AI and human understanding. The episodes will dive deep into themes of consciousness, creation, and irony, making it not only a groundbreaking project but also a very fun one. The future of podcasting will be filled with these kinds of AI-generated dialogues, and *Adam and Eve* will be at the forefront, pushing the boundaries of what this technology can achieve.
