33- Starting the Slow AI Movement


Listen Later

Living Well with Technology. In Episode 33 of the Human Pulse Podcast, hosts Anne Trager and Fabrice Neuman explore the rush to adopt AI and automation, driven by FOMO and a desire not to be left behind. They also develop the concept of the slow AI movement, based on the slow food one, emphasizing the need for more intentional and discerning use of AI tools, prioritizing usefulness, trustworthiness, and enrichment. And they tell the story of Marco Arment, creator of the Overcast app, who was able to go head-on with Apple adding a transcription service to his app… by himself, partly thanks to AI.
