I Turned 50 Expert AI Posts into a Video Podcast—Here’s The Result!

In this video, I set out to push the boundaries of GenAI-driven teaching and learning experiences. I started with 50 of Ethan Mollick’s “One Useful Thing” AI x Education blog posts and transformed them into a fully AI-generated video podcast. How did I pull it off? First, I used NotebookLM to turn Mollick’s thought-provoking posts into an audio podcast. Next, I ran that audio through Turboscribe, capturing every detail with timestamps and speaker identifications. Finally, I fed that transcript into HeyGen’s new video podcast feature, which created a virtual two-speaker discussion right on screen. You can find all relevant links below. Admittedly, it still feels like early days—there is no hiding the AI-generated voices or some of the rough edges. But imagine the potential: transforming written insights into dynamic video content that students can engage with anywhere, anytime. This is not just a cool tech trick; it is a glimpse into the future of education, where fresh ideas and expert analysis are brought to life through cutting-edge AI tools. 🔗 LINKS: Ethan Mollick's One Useful Thing Blog 👉 https://www.oneusefulthing.org/ NotebookLM 👉 https://notebooklm.google.com/ Turboscribe.ai 👉 https://turboscribe.ai/ HeyGen Video Podcast 👉 https://app.heygen.com/video-podcast/share/95ba8a62d1734a6e9abcca23b9ea7b87
