Episode description

Welcome to 500 Words.

When I worked as a news writer and producer, I acquired a habit that I am now trying to break. Back then, every day, I churned through as many print and internet sources as I could get my eyes on. Now, the more news I read, the worse I feel.

In the episode, I go on to talk about how I've tried to change my news input habits. 

In INTERROGATING AI, I cover Pokemon Go's data grab, Jerry Garcia's immortal voice, and the influx of VC funding into a startup that is developing autonomous weapons.
