ICYMI - AI Detectors Won’t Save Us
Published 1 month ago
Description
On today’s episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by Ed Zitron, host of the podcast Better Offline and a certified hater of AI. After yet another AI writing scandal, this time involving the 2026 Commonwealth Short Story prize, Kate and Ed take a closer look at tools like Pangram that claim to detect AI writing with 99% accuracy. But if we can’t ever be sure, then no one knows what’s true at all—and that’s exactly how these institutions like it.
This podcast is produced by Vic Whitley-Berry, Daisy Rosario, and Kate Lindsay.
