About this listen

In Living Forward Barbara and Teja keep life fresh in big ways and small. Two artists from opposite ends of the planet, with more than 30 years of making mischief together, Barbara & Teja (a.k.a. Kitty & Bird) will take you on a comedic romp through new adventures, pop culture, technology, creative pursuits, and staying healthy. From unpacking the worst B-movies to deciphering new iPhone features, these two cultural explorers prove that being backwards compatible doesn't keep you from living forward.© 2023 Barbara Wilson Arboleda & Teja Arboleda Social Sciences

    A few decades ago, Barbara and Teja would read entire issues of Inc. Magazine while waiting for their slow, screechy 14.4 modem to connect them to a wild, uncharted land called 'The Internet'. Now? Barbara has created her own custom GPT—a personalized AI that can crank out first drafts for technical and marketing text in seconds.

    They talk about how Large Language Models work, why it’s teeth chattering, and what it means for creativity in the AI age.
