0:00 · Future Around & Find Out

If you are interested in truly understanding something, this is the greatest time to be alive. Welcome to Future Around and Find Out. I'm Dan Blumberg, and here we grapple with emerging tech and try to steer the future in the right direction. I teach robots how to dance. So much easier to dump the morality, dump the decision off on this, like, mystical, magical being called AI. "I can't believe it's not software" is sort of the name of this moment.

1:32 · Women Under Pressure

Before you've really considered the request, you hear yourself say, "Okay, I'll take care of it." You mentally kick yourself. You tell yourself, "I saw it coming, and I know better." So why couldn't you stick to the script?

1:48 · Teaching through Emotions

Putting litter boxes into schools. It was always two towns away. "Oh, no, I know somebody who knows somebody who works there." It was always a rumor, from what I understand has just been thoroughly debunked. Teaching evaluations are one of the worst things because they don't evaluate teaching in the first place. Students shouldn't be evaluating anyway. They should be evaluating their learning. Yes, exactly right. They should not be evaluating teaching. They don't have any criteria by which to do so.
