I find it annoying when human propagandists (newscasters, infomercial hosts) engage in faux dialogue. When performed by a computer, it's annoying plus creepy.
If I can comment. It's pretty natural sounding to me. Kind of hard to imagine these are not real people. Could you adjust it to a more authoritative style rather than this conversation between American layman/woman? Could you make it sound like, say, Aldous Huxley and Queen Elizabeth? Less faux, if you know what I mean, and more high brow. Or would that put your target market off? To me, the talk show style and accent seem a bit patronizing, considering the subject matter and author. I feel like I'm listening to a commercial, or they're going to break for one.
Yes, the fluffy tone and cheesy cliches made it hard to listen to , but I appreciate the technology and its ability to give a round-up of the articles.
It def wouldn't be my first choice, atm I think there's only format option, the male and female American upbeat relaxed style. Hopefully they'll create more options for style, pace etc
Maybe in the future one could pick anyone, like, oh, Darwin, or Marx, or Shakespeare or Shirley MacLaine to read an article or even a comment. The AI devours everything they (Darwin/Marx/shakespeare/MacLaine) ever wrote or said and voila presents whatever this thing did based on those artifacts.
You say the analysis is a little shallow but for uninformed me it actually quite impressed me. I enjoyed it and how it brought all the different stories together quite seamlessly. It was fun recognising some of your articles, the poet, the Neanderthals, Stonehenge, I must have missed the Easter Island one so I will go back and read it, thank you for sharing.
No no, I think it's very impressive, the way it picks out themes and even the emotions of deep time etc it's incredible! If yourself and others do like the format I'm happy to put one out once a month as a roundup of content, it's not much work for me.

I'd rather just hear the article than fake banter/discussion.
Don't. They will fake you out of your living. What concord have we with Beliar?

Was this before the hosts found out the truth?

What a silly podcast. Polynesians had slavery. They also had cannibalism.
The deforestation of Rapanui was due to the rats the Polynesians brought with them for food.
