Remo’s special guest for this episode of the REMORANDOM video podcast is Bob Mankoff. Bob was the cartoon editor for The New Yorker magazine for nearly twenty years, and before that he was a New Yorker cartoonist for another twenty years. Today, as president of cartoonstock.com, the world’s largest archive of single-panel cartoons, he continues pushing the boundaries of AI humour comprehension and creation while ensuring that humans remain in control and in the loop. Bob and Remo chat about the essence of humour, what makes something funny and the relevance of AI in all of that. It’s a thought-provoking and interesting conversation.
PS: Play Bob’s new word game Associology. It’s his new vibe-coded baby.
