Also worth listening is a follow-up with the reporter (Sruthi Pinnamaneni) on The Verge podcast

I've recently been amplifying this excellent piece about that by Nilay Patel https://www.theverge.com/podcast/917029/software-brain-ai-backlash-databases-automation

With the exception of those where they can actually pull off banter and comedy well. IMO The Verge is one such podcast.
