AI for the masses
You may have used a screen recorder, but what if it was indexed by an AI? Elon Musk has money, why does he want your $8? What does it mean when everyone has access to deep fakes? Can you solve climate change with a big beam of microwave energy?

You should still listen to the podcast anyway!
