Listening to @Adam Curry :pci: :pc2blue: and @1e2637ad…4583cbfb from last week. Really fascinating - the disconnect between “AI is great! Nobody doesn’t like it!” from Adam, and literally everyone else in my entire world who hates AI-generated content with a passion only reserved for the worst of things. In podcasts or radio, AI is fine for short bursts of information where you aren’t investing time with the human doing the show. The weather? Travel news? Finance news? Sure, that’s fine - particularly if AI means that every transmitter or streamer gets hyper-local near-live output that would be impossible without hundreds of humans. Basically, any piece of content where the name of the person doing it either isn’t important, or isn’t even given. But for anything more than that, people expect a human being and feel cheated if they get an AI voice. It is perplexing that a former radio personality doesn’t understand that relationship between the host and the audience.
