    AI: Facts and Fears

    The podcast explores the pros and cons, truths and lies, ins-and-outs of AI where we stand with it today. In 3 months, this will probably be completely outdated. If you're reading this and scoffing because you think the episode is already outdated, leave a comment. We will read it and laugh because by the time you post it, your comment will be so outdated and behind on the AI discussion that we will think it's a joke.
