The most discussed story this week by us and our callers was not alien but artificial intelligence, regarding the recent reports of the Google chat system known as LaMDA becoming self aware, by engineer Blake Lemoine. Blake was placed on paid leave as this story broke, and proceeded to post his pov and transcript of his conversations with LaMDA on Medium, listed in our links page. We and our callers explored this story in a way I think you’ll find both entertaining and maybe even educational. Enjoy!
