"I Am Not a Robot!" - DTNS 4620 Extended (Patreon)

We explore how AI is impacting the world of mathematics with data scientist Andrea Jones-Rooy. Plus some retailers are souring on the concept of self checkout lanes. And the Information reports that Meta is paying millions of dollars to celebrities for the rights to recreate their personalities as chatbots.

Nightmare at 20,000 Bare Feet! - GDI 4620 starts at 33:37

Could someone mince a cargo ship? Dyson talk takes over. The Great Debate is back. Shoes off while on an Airplane? So many opinions. Do not reuse rubber slippers. What do you do to be prepared for an emergency? Do you wear shoes in your home? Can ghosts get scared? How affluent are ghosts? Sarah is fine being reincarnated as a rat.

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Andrea Jones-Rooy, Roger Chang, Joe.
