Create a compelling thumbnail for a YouTube video podcast about AI image generation, specifically Google's Imagen 3, featuring two hosts. Include two distinct, friendly faces \u2013 one male, one female \u2013 representing the podcast hosts. The male host should be wearing glasses and a light blue collared shirt. The female host should be wearing glasses, her hair tied back in a pony tail, and wearing a grey t-shirt that says "MakerSuite". They should be facing the viewer with engaging expressions, perhaps a mix of excitement and contemplation. Showcase a visually striking AI-generated image emerging from a laptop screen or a thought bubble. The overall image should be done in the style of George Seurat.
