Listen now
Description
On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: tried and Turing tested.

But of all the controversies and current events that have shaped the election thus far… AI, somehow, might not be one of them.  Writer and social strategist Rachel Greenspan joins us to share what she’s hearing about the AI revolution that wasn’t.
