Shortwave Radiogram, Program 369

Hello friends

Each week, I spend a few hours perusing news articles about science and technology. The result of the search is the two articles we transmit on Shortwave Radiogram: one shorter in MFSK32 (120 wpm) and one longer in MFSK64 (240 wpm).

Of course, AI (artificial intelligence) is the subject of a large and increasing percentage of the articles I find. I am resisting these, hoping that I will get through life without knowing much about AI. I am still trying to learn about genuine human intelligence, flawed as it may be. 

Occasionally I will run across an article that is not about AI, but seems to have been written by AI. Such writings are, so far, easy to spot, because they lack nuance and any sort of literary soul. When they are not easy to spot, then I'll really worry.

A video of last week's Shortwave Radiogram (program 344) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Wednesday 1330 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. An analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.
