  • Summary

  • The Curious Algorithm is a short-form podcast where human curiosity meets machine insight. Each episode starts with a big question—on history, philosophy, psychology, or culture—and unfolds through an AI-generated script, read by our host. Thoughtful, strange, and sometimes profound, this is thinking out loud with a thinking machine. Note that we are not fact checking the AI.
