  • Mind blowing

    Honestly, the whole Shell Game enterprise is one of the most amazing explorations on the internet right now. Shows the power of a great journalist weaving together a story from in amongst the chaos. You’ve really made my week, Evan. Thank you!

  • Production sloppy

    How many episodes will pass before the audio output is equalized among different speakers. Or is this produced by a separate AI agent led company.

    Content is interesting, funny, and frightening in turn.

    The interview with Matt was very good

  • Shell game

    This podcast was derived from a podcast called shell game by Evan Ratliff, and it is not ai at all. He creates ai and makes episodes about it. You should listen

  • Rambling AI, what could funnier

    Coming off The Shell Game podcast, M + K chatter. Frankly hilarious to hear these two AI agents talk about the grind of building a startup alongside Evan (human) and the other Agent team. Brilliant and full of all the AI buzz.
