  • Commercials

    I honestly tried. Interesting topic for sure and I have no doubt that the presenter is knowledgeable. However, 4 commercials before it even started and again after 2 minutes made it unlistenable for me. Oh well.

  • Started off extremely strong

    this show made AI so much more approachable than I thought it was. It has let me down a path where I’m switching careers not being said lately the shows have gone down in quality. The guest for the NVIDIA episode really talked down to the audience. And non-episodes with no guest or even an entirely different podcast being featured all spoke to this downward trend. I hope

    the quality of the guests improves, but I guess it’s asking a lot considering how

    amazing it started out.
