In a special episode of Whispering Pines, creators Anders Bjarby and Levi Sweeney shared insights on the integration of AI in audio drama, discussing their creative processes and future aspirations. The episode highlighted the importance of community feedback and thematic exploration in storytelling, providing a dynamic and engaging experience for listeners.

Additionally, Levi wrote an article on Medium acknowledging Anders as the pioneer of AI audio drama, to which Anders responded. Remarkably, they ran the article and comment through the Whispering Pines engine alongside their cloned voices, creating AI alter egos of themselves that appeared as guests on the show. This meta-level integration of their real and AI personas added a unique layer to the episode, blending reality with virtual representation in a creative exploration of AI's potential in storytelling.
