    Random Wire Reflections for issue 115

    As an experiment, I pasted all of Random Wire Review issue 115 into Google’s NotebookLM AI system. It spit out an audio rendition of issue 115 in the form of a podcast which is published here. I have to say: the Random Wire review described by the two voices sounds pretty interesting! Honestly, I was really surprised at the insights and conclusions offered by the AI. Did it get everything exactly right? No, but the vast majority was not only accurate but had added context the AI pulled from other Random Wire issues and from external sources. Color me impressed. .-. .- -. -.. --- -- / .-- .. .-. . / .-. . ...- .. . .-- / -... -.-- / -.- .--- --... - Credits * Intro and outro music by RedhatMike on Pixabay * Morse Code clips from the Morse Code Translator * The cover art for the podcast stream is by Wallace Chuck * The other cover: If you see a photo of a person with a headset, that is a selfie of Tom Salzer KJ7T using a Heil headset .-. .- -. -.. --- -- / .-- .. .-. . / .-. . ...- .. . .-- / -... -.-- / -.- .--- --... - This is a public episode.
