This is an AI-generated exploration about whatever subjects pique my interest at any given time. Episodes usually straddle tech, media, finance, business, entrepreneurship, history, philosophy, and psychology – for which I feed the machine research and analysis from various sources to produce this synthesis.
If business and writing are the outlets of my intellectual curiosity, then consumption and reading are the inputs. As my audio professor and scrapbook, this show falls somewhere in between those ends, so I might as well share it with you!
