Over the last ~2 hours I curated a new Podcast of 10 episodes called "Histories of Mysteries". Find it up on Spotify here: 10 episodes of this season are: Ep 1: The Lost City of Atlantis Ep 2: Baghdad battery Ep 3: The Roanoke Colony Ep 4: The Antikythera Mechanism Ep 5: Voynich Manuscript Ep 6: Late Bronze Age collapse Ep 7: Wow! signal Ep 8: Mary Celeste Ep 9: Göbekli Tepe Ep 10: LUCA: Last Universal Common Ancestor Process: - I researched cool topics using ChatGPT, Claude, Google - I linked NotebookLM to the Wikipedia entry of each topic and generated the podcast audio - I used NotebookLM to also write the podcast/episode descriptions. - Ideogram to create all digital art for the episodes and the podcast itself - Spotify to upload and host the podcast I did this as an exploration of the space of possibility unlocked by generative AI, and the leverage afforded by the use of AI. The fact that I can, as a single person in 2 hours, curate (not create, but curate) a podcast is I think kind of incredible. I also completely understand and acknowledge the potential and immediate critique here, of AI generated slop taking over the internet. I guess - have a listen to the podcast when you go for walk/drive next time and see what you think.
