AI User Group #3 - Leo's Sci-Fi Makeover

In this month’s AI User Group, Leo Laporte finally jumps on-stage with Producer Anthony Nielsen and Club TWiT member and designer Joe Esposito for a fast-paced demo-fest on how they turn wild AI ideas into eye-popping promo clips.  Watch Anthony peel back Leo’s face Terminator-style while explaining his rapid-fire workflow across Sora, Pika, Runway, Photoshop, and Stable Diffusion—and why iterating (and occasionally gambling on AI "happy accidents") beats waiting for a perfect one-click result. The trio also pull back the curtain on TWiT's 20-year tribute video, debate the hidden energy cost of generative models, and share pro tips. It’s equal parts show-and-tell, shop talk, and spirited ethics chat—perfect for anyone who wants to level-up their creative toolkit without losing their human touch.
