b'This week, Patrick and Tracy are talking about many things, including but not limited to: the rise of AI, students believing AI helps them, protecting creators, elastic principles, the excuses we make to support the bad thing that makes our lives easier, the convenience of the big box seller versus the mom and pop shop, moral justifications, game and hobby shops versus Amazon, The Office, the almighty AI-driven algorithms, social media and the great migration away from the channel formerly known as Twitter, the sense of online community, personal moral high ground versus connecting with your audience on their preferred platform, cookies and your digital footprint online, fandom, supporting the problematic thing, piracy, economics and the desire to have a thing outweighing the moral and ethical questions around how you got the thing…
