For the first episode of the new season of the podcast, I sat down with Matthew da Mota, senior research associate and program manager for the Global AI Risks Initiative at the Centre for International Governance Innovation. We discussed his opinion piece, "Libraries and Research Institutions Will Need Strong AI Governance," and advice he would share with students and librarians on AI usage and ethics.

This is an important beginning to a season of podcasts that will highlight the work on the front lines of the history field and beyond.
