6/30/21 Update: Good things in store
You might notice that the content here is incomplete. Check back here in September for a new and improved format of this course!
In the meantime, we’d love it if you listened to our two favorite episodes:
1-1 Ramen Noodles
Programming… is exactly like making a snack. (Really.) In this byte, we explain how and why this matters.
2-1 Computers aren’t demigods / On the existence of bias-free systems
This is a phenomenal interview with expert David Widder @davidthewid on the pitfalls of placing too much trust in AI (and computer systems in general.)
