This was so well done. It let us lean into our intrigue while offering dignity to the people it interviewed. Loved that as much as it was about AI, it was also about humanity.

The women are terrific hosts and have a great franchise under Redhanded. This story was terrible. Protagonist is unrelatable. Not what fans of Hannah and Suruthi may expect.
