Full disclosure - this is not a "real" podcast in the traditional sense of the word. Google has a new Artificial Intelligence tool called Notebook LM that allows users to feed it any type of written data, which it will then turn into a podcast. The voices you hear are completely generated by Notebook's language models. 

We decided to experiment with the tool by showing it a recently article we posted on our website featuring Kerry Healy, chief commercial officer, Middle East, Africa, Turkey & Asia Pacific for Premium, Midscale & Economy, Accor, and how she's tackling rate integrity in the Middle East. 

Have a listen and ask yourself - if you didn't know this was generated by AI, would you have guessed anyway?
