  • Used to be better

    Human plus AI success doesn’t mean someone reading an AI generated script.

    Please do better. For example, you can use AI for:

    1. Better research

    2. Sharpen the audio (it sounds very ‘tinny’)

    3. Identifying and reaching out to guests and speakers

    Just a few thoughts….

    This podcast became very boring recently. Only talks about AI hype as if there are no real challenges
