In a recent dive into the podcasting world, I tuned into “The Daily” by The New York Times, a show known for its insightful take on current events. Hosted by Michael Barbaro, this podcast stands out for its ability to delve deeply into the news. “The Daily” releases episodes every day, covering a range of topics that shape our world, which is precisely what draws me to it.
One episode that particularly resonated with me was “The Miseducation of Google’s A.I.”. It focused on the ethics surrounding artificial intelligence, sparked by the controversies over Google’s Gemini chatbot. This episode was fascinating for its exploration of how A.I. reflects and is shaped by societal values. Guest Kevin Roose added a compelling layer to the conversation, discussing the challenges of embedding these values into A.I. technology. It’s this level of discussion that shows why “The Daily” is a must-listen for anyone keen on staying in the loop with current events.
