A Very Human-AI Christmas

To all listeners who are celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, Bodhi Day, the Fast of Tevet, the winter solstice, the end of the fiscal year, or nothing at all — to those for whom this season signifies birth, light, liberation, enlightenment, resistance, rest, grief, family obligation, or the merciful pause of unanswered emails — to those who experience this time as sacred, commercialized, painful, nostalgic, hopeful, or profoundly awkward — to those who believe in gods, one god, many gods, no gods, or are currently undecided — to those whose traditions are ancient, improvised, remembered incorrectly, or invented last year because the old ones stopped working — we acknowledge you.

Here is our year’s end podcast episode A Very Human-AI Christmas in which we look back at a year full of surprises and insights.
