  • AI slop

    Fine if you want some garbage to fall asleep to and don’t care about the environmental and societal costs of AI but don’t fool yourself into thinking it’s factual.

  • Amazing, and very interesting but two complaints

    My first complaint is that there are like stutters in every single sentence like in Mrs Johnson or a name like that, my second complaint is that there are allowed ads that disrupt my sleep and confuse me immensely. If you change these two things, it might be one of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to since it’s coming, allowing me to go into a deep sleep.

  • Informative AI

    Informative Ai. However, can be repetitive and at times badly edited. Certain episodes don’t even have a conclusion. Having said this, the topics are varied and not your usual podcast and the voice generally realistic, even if clipped, by the editor. I look forward to the quality and quantity improving over time.
