This was one of the trickiest of the projects that we worked on with NLP and ChatGPT, searching for a piece of software that could really interpret voices was unsuccesful and we landed up using a TTS plugin that managed to voice the part of ChatGPT.

One of the interesting aspects about asking questions of a "robot" is trying to pull the emotion out of the enquiry. It has become apparent that bringing emotion into a question is a very human thing. It really twists your brain when trying to consider what to ask.

In the first podcast in the beauty series we spoke to Plastic Surgeon and all round good guy Dr Leslie Berkowitz. We highly recommend going back and listening to that pod, but its not essential to listen to before todays episode in which we spoke to  Dr Jan Nel, better known as Cape Town Doctor. 

Dr Nel is a GP and Aesthetician who works with non-invasive procedures. 

These procedures have in many ways replaced plastic surgery, and aestheticians offer a rapid same day treatment which can address some concerns you may have about how you look. 

We spoke to the Doctor about his experiences in his field, his response to the ethics of beauty in a Social Media age, as well as the holistic importance of his work.

Nikolaos Kirkinis' love for South African football began as a youngster, as his conscious father encouraged his engagement with the country that he lives in, rather than football from foreign climates like most other white South African kids. His bond with SA football has resulted in a successful career as a football writer with fans of his own. Go buy and read his books, he wrote them specifically with the non-football fan in mind. These are South African stories of tragedy, romance, comedy and action told through the lens of football.

Seriously, get advice before investing any money.

Cryptocurrency is changing the world. It's changing the way we think about money and value, how governments think about tax, how vendors on a global scale think about payment. It has opened up the world of investing and trading to the everyday person, anyone who has never had the opportunity to invest or trade now can. With as little as R10, an ID book, a smartphone, and a desire to learn, anyone can trade in Cryptocurrency.

A word to the wise though: Cryptocurrency is fickle and volatile and regardless of the investor skills and education is somewhat of a gamble.

In today's podcast, we chatted with James Preston, the head of Global Crypto TV to talk about cryptocurrency. James is thoughtful and generous with his knowledge and he makes understanding crypto that much easier.

In today's podcast, we wanted to speak to someone with deep knowledge and respect for psychedelics and so we found Megan.
