Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 32 ratings
  • Good Listen

    After looking all over for listenable podcasts on the topic of AI, I found this one.

    It is produced for listening which I appreciate as so many shows are repurposing their video logs and doing full on presentations that you can’t see.

    So this is a good listen.
