Description

In this episode of the Fully Charged Show Podcast, we’re doing something a little different—and we're very intrigued to hear your thoughts! This extended interview features legendary car designer Ian Callum, CBE (former Aston Martin and Jaguar designer including the i pace) and Alec Jones, Head of Design at Callum and the mastermind behind Nyobolt's Lotus Elise reimagined for the electric era.

As experts in car design, Ian and Alec gave their unfiltered opinions on some AI-generated car designs Imogen created using Vizcom. Their critiques? Let’s just say they weren’t glowing. But what followed was a fascinating and thought-provoking conversation about creativity, the role of AI tools, the future of car design and whether these technologies will harness human imagination—or overshadow it. So, sit back and enjoy this engaging discussion on the future of design, the magic of human creativity, and the role AI will play in shaping our world.  @fullychargedshow   @EverythingElectricShow
