Episode description

Your hosts discuss the collaboration between humanity and AI in “The Salvage Crew” by Yudhanjaya Wijeratne. Lilly complains about first person point of view, although she realizes that that’s a “her” problem. They also read “Reaper Man” by Terry Pratchett, and theorize that “Mort” wishes it was as good. Finally, in the Words Are Weird segment, they complain about phrases that have gained cultural baggage.
