About this episode

The episode discusses the modernization of children's literature and the storytelling patterns in LLM chatbots.

This week we catch up on two pieces that caught our eye: one on the modernization of older children’s literature to match contemporary culture, and another on how every LLM chatbot keeps telling stories featuring the same vaguely aggrieved fictional guy. It’s weird! The goblins are closing in!
