love this idea! pairing two folks in each episode — will be interesting to see what notebook comes up with for the convo i recently took a ton of my stuff and lots of research papers etc into notebook and did the conversations test. Kinda cool 😎 dropped them as a weekly podcast. have fun with it! https://open.spotify.com/show/5YW2b133OwwbQl14ZKmbVN

I'm really excited about the potential! Especially now that customization is available on the podcasts. This isn't the only series I'm doing - also starting a series on philosophy of curiosity that will eventually serve as a sort of "start here" series for my content. Using AI to augment human knowledge, not replace it.

I think it's very recent because I only just noticed it in the last few days. I find it's great for creating summaries before I read a bunch of sources to spark my curiosity and see what themes are there, what to look for and pay attention to as I'm reading. Then after I've read it, I can go back, delete the original podcast (cuz I've already downloaded it) and customize it to more deeply explore other angles and themes that I noticed as I was reading. What interests me is often *very* different from what the professors emphasize. For example, I'm more fascinated by Hobbes's description of the Leviathan as an "artificial man" and connecting it to Anatoly Dneprov's short story "The Game" which was a Russian version of the Chinese Room argument, and definitely inspired certain scenes in Three Body Problem that were meant to show how a machine could mimic understanding without having a mind, but everyone else is obsessed with his politics 🤣
