AI & ML Usage Policy

Our episodes are processed and edited entirely by human editors. We use a few specific machine learning tools to prep the raw audio, and that’s the extent of it.

What we use ML for:

• Denoising: strips out hums, hiss, and static from raw recordings.
• De-reverb: cuts down room echo so voices sound close and clean, not boxy.
• Non-speech sounds detection: flags coughs, throat clearing, and other sounds for our editors to review, the kind your audience probably doesn’t want to hear.
• Transcription: generates a raw transcript so editors can navigate audio faster (never published, never treated as a final product).
• Video upscaling: sharpens those famous Zoom-recorded, low-res video calls without altering content.

What we don’t use:

• No generative AI – one exception though: we do use generative AI for some blog post images. If you ever spot a guest with six fingers or a microphone that melts into a desk, that’s why.
• No automated editing, mixing, or mastering. Ever. Would you want an AI doing your surgery?

• No synthetic or cloned voices. What’s the point?

Changes to this Policy

We don’t change our mind about that.
