The Unwilled Writer

from Crawford Media Podcast Hosted by Hal Crawford

Hello everyone, This week is the first part of a two-part podcast on AI language transformers in general and GPT-3 in particular. First up, I am dealing with general impacts and impressions and next week I’ll go deeper into the effects of text generators on education. All of this is a follow-up to The Machines Have Acquired Language, which I wrote two weeks ago. It also touches on an article I wrote for The Spinoff, AI Writing Has Entered A New Dimension. I have to make this succinct, because last time I published a podcast, Substack decided to use the text of my newsletter as the blurb for my podcast episode. That was new - usually it takes the post summary - and unwelcome. Have a listen to the podcast, it’s in a new style for me, using a lot more of my voice rather than just a recording of an interview. Let me know if you like it! Here is the link to Mike Sharples’ new book, Story Machines. Have a great week, Hal This is a public episode.
