TRANSCRIPT ...
This is a podcast about our weekly podcasts that will be coming soon!!!
It's from me, Roy Beasley, editor of the Neoskeptics Blog.
Every day, with the help of a few friends and associates, I try to identify the most useful AI related news stories in about 20 tech media.
I post links to these stories on our blog's "Useful Ai News" page in various categories.
I'm retired, so I have the time to read all of these articles, but I assume that most of our readers don't.
So on Fridays, I identify the top 2, 3, 4 or 5 articles that were added to the AI news page during that week.
I copy the links to those articles into the "Top stories" headline section at the top of the news page.
Unfortunately, most of our readers don't have the time to read all of these top stories.
That's why I recently added a short note above the headline section, a TL;DR -- "Too long, did not read" -- i.e.. an executive summary of that week's top stories that only takes a few minutes to read. To date, I have published TL;DR summary notes on the blog each week for the last three weeks,
Unfortunately, our busiest readers don't even have the time to sit down at their computer screens or to look at their mobile phones long enough to read the TL;DR summaries ... but they might listen to a podcast,
Our busiest readers could listen to a podcast while doing something else ... while getting dressed in the morning, while eating breakfast, while driving to work. They would not need to look at a screen while listening to a podcast.
Our podcast audio will convey the same summary information as the printed TL;DR section, but will be phrased in a conversational format. If readers find podcast audio comments about a top story of sufficient interest, they will be able to click the links in the TL;DR section that will load the associated news story into their browsers.
Going forward, the weekly TL;DR page will also contain audio controls that will play the weekly podcast file. The TL;DR plus podcast will be published on this blog on Friday evenings. Announcements of thepublication will be posted on the @Neoskeptics Twitter account and on my LinkedIn personal account on Friday evenings and on Saturday mornings.
Thank you.
