  • Great but please stop using AI

    The podcast is a great quick knowledge refresher or a way to stay up to date. I’ve not listened for a while due to being on Mat Leave, but now the podcast is read by an AI voice and it is so difficult to listen to and actually understand due to the unnatural voice tone and breaks. Please go back to a human reading.
