AI doesn’t have to be scary, boring, or reserved for tech bros.Welcome to Lantyn Labs, the weekly podcast where we demystify AI by getting our hands dirty and building stuff — live.We’re Georgia Lewis Anderson and Omar Karim, two AI insiders from creative backgrounds and co-founders of Lantyn - a purpose first AI studio.Every week, we give ourselves a new challenge: build an AI product from scratch, then share exactly how (and why) we did it — the tools, the mindset, the fails, and the wins. With no jargon, no gatekeeping, and definitely no "move fast and break things" nonsense.This isn’t theory. It’s real experiments, live learnings, and the behind-the-scenes of growing an AI business from the ground up.Whether you're AI-curious, building your own thing, or just here for the behind-the-scenes chaos of creative tech, this is your front-row seat
