- The Australian ABC has published its findings from a project where the broadcaster used AI to try to optimise episode titles and descriptions. AI isn’t better than humans, the research discovers; but it can be useful for summarising and inspiration. Highlighting cultural differences, it also appeared difficult to stop AI from using a US English style of writing.
- Podcasting Made Simple Live is a virtual event taking place this Thursday, from 11.30am to 4pm Eastern. There are a number of speakers aimed to help podcast creators grow influence, revenue, and expertise. Tickets are normally $97, but follow this link to get in, free, thanks to Podnews. (You’ll even get replay access, too!)
- In Australia, the 35th Australian Commercial Radio & Audio Awards (ACRA) announced its winners, including a set of podcast prizes. Hannah’s Story won Podcast of the Year.

podcast:location
