Intro
On August 8, The Daily AI Show marks its two-year anniversary. The hosts reflect on how much the AI world has changed since their very first episode—moving from chatbots and early model releases to a global wave of rapid innovation, shifting work habits, and a thriving community. They share behind-the-scenes memories, lessons learned, and what’s next as AI continues to reshape everything from tech to daily life.
Key Points Discussed
• The show launched in August 2023 as generative AI was just breaking through—GPT-3.5, Claude, Bard, Llama 2, and image generation tools like DALL-E and Midjourney were making headlines.
• Early discussions focused on chatbots, custom workflows, and how to keep pace with non-stop new releases.
• Each host recalls the personal motivations that brought them to the project, from needing a daily AI “anchor” to seeking community and perspective during massive industry change.
• The hosts credit the show’s staying power to both internal commitment and the daily live chat—many content programs fade after a few episodes, but the DAS community kept the energy high.
• Listener feedback and live community input have shaped show topics, formats, and even inside jokes.
• There’s a real appreciation for the team’s mix of backgrounds—CXO, tech, consulting, education, entertainment, and marketing—making the show a filter for the vast AI world, not just a news feed.
• Panelists share stats from two years: hundreds of episodes, tens of thousands of watch hours, thousands of live chat comments, and plenty of flubs and laughs.
• They close by discussing the current state of AI, with GPT-5 and “world models” just released, new questions about model selection, workflows, and how fast the ground is shifting for everyone—users and power users alike.
