Listen "Sexist Robots"
Episode Synopsis
We teach robots everything they know — including our own human idiosyncrasies when it comes to language. Computational linguist Kate McCurdy joins producers Thomas Moore Devlin and Dylan Lyons to explain the consequences our own language can have on artificial intelligence. Later on, the entire team joins for a round of What We Learned This Week, featuring Chinese typewriters, the world’s oldest language, Marie Kondo, and more. We, for our part, welcome our new robot overlords.Get 50% off a 3-month Babbel subscription by visiting babbel.com/podcast and using the code MULTI.Special thanks to Kate McCurdy for taking the time to speak with us.For more info about what we discussed in this episode, visit Babbel Magazine:babbel.com/en/magazine/sexist-robots/
