Enjoyed that. Very informative 13 minutes while taking a break from raking leaves. Keen on more of these.

Apart from the weird pronunciation of Kickr, I wouldn’t have known this was AI. This was actually one of the best explanations of trainer difficulty that I have heard so this is a really good bit of information especially for the newbies…

I tried that site for a few things and love it!

Here is an example from a podcast about the 2nd race next round, the first point race, aka Surf and Turf. Even that podcast did some shoutouts towards Zwiftinsider.

AI is scary…

In reply to Mark O’Neal. I mean... so do I. It's why I write. But I know LOTS of people who prefer to listen to content rather than read it. This was more of a test to see how good the quality would be, and how easy it would be to produce. Obviously, asking the opinion of my readers probably biases the results of my very informal survey...

A good way to summarize multiple articles on a subject, especially for newcomers. A bit long winded though. Definitely a new useful tool to use but with moderation I think…

Yes technically very clever, but ethically I think it’s wrong, and is on the slippery slope of removing human creativity and replacing it with software.

Personally I would not listen to this, I prefer a human for their personality, mistakes, quirks etc, this is another casual step towards eradicating people’s jobs.

Eric – very cool work. Always impressed by how quickly AI is improving. That being said i think the magic of a good podcast are the things that cannot be done with AI – offhand jokes, people laughing, a real story they tell. So a ZI pod i would listen to would feature you and someone else (or two) actually talking about zwift experieneces.

Of course if there is a market for people who want to consume their zwift info by pod this would be a good way to do it.

In reply to Kow. I've heard that podcast. I don't think it would make anyone's top ten list.
