As usual, our podcast audio is a recording of the Descript app reading of modified versions  ChatGPT's summaries in an AI imitation of the voices of the editor of this blog and his AI colleagues.

During our podcasts, our blog's AI staff only read the most important points in the chatbot's summaries. Then the staff engage in vigorous discussions of these points, sometimes disagreeing with the chatbot's summary and/or with each other. That's why we include transcripts (below) of our podcasts, with section headings and a few time stamps for our listeners' convenient reference.
