Why does talking to AI feel weird?

Why Does This Feel Weird? is the podcast for anyone who feels unsettled by our rapidly changing world of technology but can’t quite put their finger on why.

Hosted by a researcher (Alex) and a strategist (Jacob), listen to us explore the psychological and social impact of living through weird, wonderful and sometimes terrifying technological change. No hype, no panic - just two friends trying to make sense of a world that feels increasingly surreal.

New episodes weekly. Because the world keeps getting weirder, and we're all just trying to keep up.
