  • Needs an editor

    Liked the idea of Skift Daily by podcast, but it’s clear no editor is even listening to the final product. Constant mispronunciations by AI. If you aren’t going to do it right, don’t do it at all. A poor look.

  • AI Reader 0/10 starts

    The content is so poorly delivered by an AI reader it makes this podcast a challenging listen. Words mispronounced, phrasing off. Is Skift so tight for funds they can’t afford a human to do this small bit of journalism to cover such a human centric category? If the tech can’t be done right, don’t do the tech.
