(They don't need to be super obscure stumpers. These are mostly first-year Film & Television students, so mostly teenagers, and I want them to actually have fun. So a few easier ones and few more challenging ones are good.)

Blargh, typo. At *least* one of you. Reposting, but will keep this one up.

My mom talks about watching THE THORN BIRDS. When I talked to my editor about a miniseries project, the first thing he said was, "Oh! Like THE THORN BIRDS? My mom loved THE THORN BIRDS." Others have told me the same. So now it is time to watch, apparently, everybody's mother's favorite miniseries. 😀

Not only are the AI "podcasts" horrendous, having my work put into the mouth of the (male) AI "host," with no differentiation between my words and the idiotic AI-generated interjections (and having the robot stealing my work have the audacity to call me by my first name 😡) is infuriating.

I made the mistake of playing a few because I wanted to retain them as a record. (They are horrid.) But of course buried in a help forum I found the info that the podcast is not generated until you press play. And it's obviously intentionally designed to confuse you into doing exactly what I did.

If you get an email about an Academia[dot]edu AI podcast of your work, you can go to the page & tick the box to opt out in the "feedback," but then it brings you to page full of podcasts of all your work, even things you didn't upload. Don't play them. Fully opt out: www.academia.edu/settings#ai-...
