Hello!
For this week's challenge, I've asked 'If you hit 80%, what then?'
This is a question more creators should be asking, and with the help of Suno and Google NotebookLM, I've created this overview in the style of a radio talkshow.

Nice throwback, John. Yes, I've been goofing with that Google NotebookLM this week and the podcasts it produces are surprisingly addicting. It is novel now but if it became ubiquitous in training, with only those two voices going at it, I think it would loose its appeal in time. Great work with the analog radio. I like the Sonus song as well.

Thanks Ron, you're absolutely right, and I've had pretty much the same conversation with my team.
In the same way certain Vyond characters, Canva templates and even Storyline characters can become overused, I expect people to get bored of NotebookLM audio summaries very quickly. That said, I also hope Google will introduce more options to customise these, too.

That voice is so much better than mine. I really dig how you created this! I'm doing something similar as a podcast with AI Agents. I created a looped conversation between 3 AI personas that focus their discussion around a topic that I give to the host AI. The AI Agents are on autopilot after I send the message, then there's a bit of video editing that I do, but your voices sound much better than mine. Kudos! Here's how mine sounds/looks: https://youtu.be/nQYE0G9dtRQ

P.S. if you view this demo on a mobile device, the navigation is via buttons, not the slider/tuner.
Sliders can be a tricky on touchscreens, as the gesture can be mistaken for 'swipe'.
You can also access these simplified controls on the desktop view, via the 'Help/Info' button.

You got me thinking about 80%...what a low threshold. That's like a B- in our US grading system (to me). The last test I took was for my California Driver license and you needed to get 38 or more of 46 correct (83%).

I think for certain tasks, a B-minus is fine. But other tasks demand a higher level of expertise, for sure. A baseball player with a lifetime batting average of 50% (500) would be off-the-charts amazing. But a doctor who has a 50% success rate in surgery might not be anyone's first choice.

As usual, I'm learning from your demos, Jonathan. I didn't know Suno: it's incredible but disturbing. Nor Google Notebooklm, but the voices are only in English for the moment. Nor the strange fate of 80%.
