For this Weeks TechtalkRadio Show Andy Taylor is joined by Shawn DeWeerd and Slick. They recap last week’s episode which looked at Midjourney with Justin's scary images created on the platform. The Video from the Show with those images is available on the Blog.techtalkradio.com. Slick, Shawn and Andy talk about doppelgangers and who each member of the show looks like. Andy shares that he believes Shawn looks like the grown-up version of the kid from Two and Half Men. Slick has been told he looks like Gil Scott Heron and Shawn brings up his image during the show which surprises everybody at the resemblance, almost as much as Andy's likeness in the 80's to film director John Landis. Andy shares a story of Driving on the Studio Lot at Universal and getting waved through. In a Non-Tech Direction in our idea to occasionally Unplug, Shawn tells us about Outdoor Axe Throwing during his recent Camping Trip.
