This week on
@hyperfixedpod, a collaboration with the @BBC
and @99piorg: if you were alive in the 90’s, you remember free AOL disks because they were everywhere. For the BBC’s history of America in 100 objects, we covered the rise and fall of the aol disk. hyperfixedpod.com/listen/hyp…
On the latest episode of @hyperfixedpod: sanderson’s long dormant podcast feed suddenly sprang to life again, only he wasn’t the one who did it. Someone had cloned his voice with AI and was making him say things he’d never say irl. How? And more importantly… why? Listen to it!

This week on @hyperfixedpod — Sanderson stopped making his podcast years ago, but a few months ago it started up again. But this time it was being made by stealing sanderson’s voice with AI, making him say the exact opposite of what he believes. hyperfixedpod.com/listen/hyp…

Why does every microwave have a “popcorn” button but every popcorn bag says “DONT USE THE POPCORN BUTTON?” We went deeper than I thought possible getting the answer. hyperfixedpod.com/listen/hyp…

This week on @hyperfixedpod-listener @alicewetterlund reached out because she found a bunch of audio that was ostensibly recorded by incarcerated people in a prison. Was it? And if so how do you do that ethically? We get all the way to the bottom of it. hyperfixedpod.com/listen/hyp…
