Kevin Roose Didn’t Use AI to Write His Book About AI
The author of The AGI Chronicles says his book “was written by a very tired, overworked, under-slept human being.”
Kevin Roose and Casey Newton have recently launched their own media company, Machine Gods Media, along with a podcast by the same name. Roose, a former New York Times columnist and podcast host, explained that the show aims to address the gaps in AI coverage by delivering a more balanced perspective. The duo believes that many existing AI discussions either fall into the category of hype or dismissiveness.
They aim to provide a more accurate and nuanced examination of AI's capabilities and risks without descending into either overenthusiasm or skepticism. The show aims to attract a diverse audience, including those with varying viewpoints on AI, by leveraging NPR's extensive reach and commitment to journalistic integrity.
