Michael and Michael get together to cohost this episode while Andy is away. Topics for this show include stories about the spate of lawsuits related to intellectual property ownership issues for generative AI, Furby, screenless AI and BMW’s ConnectedRide AR glasses.

Starting off with the legal side of AI – while neither Michael nor Michael are attorneys, they are fascinated with the challenges of intellectual property ownership, fair use and licensing in the generative AI domain. After bringing up a couple of recent articles on the subject, they turn to the Furby toy and the potential for generative AI in that market.

Next, the co-hosts turn to screen less AI – using the example from #Argodesign as a reference, and bringing in the Humane AI Pin to the discussion.

Switching from the screenless example to AR glasses, Michael and Michael talk about BMW’s #ConnectedRide AR glasses – check out the video in the show notes below. They talked about AR in motorcycle helmets way back in e194.

How do you see AI evolving next? Will screenless design win out over AR or VR? Have your bots 🤖 drop our bots 🤖 a line at @gamesatwork_biz (our home for now) and let us know!
