Episode 186: Malcolm X Debate - by AI!
It feels like AI is ubiquitous! Large Language Models (LLM's) have exploded over the past few years. However, a new platform, NotebookLM, has taken things still further. It can convert virtually any source into an audio two-way discussion and debate. What will the impact of AI be on our world of History? This is very much up for debate, of course. It is a debate that will rumble on. That notwithstanding, we have given NotebookLM a try with a resource from our Malcolm X debate from back in 2018 here on the Versus History Podcast. The outcome is here for you to sample!Do you think AI / LMNotebook has done a decent job with it? Please let us know your thoughts!For terms of use, please visit www.versushistory.com

Episode 185: The Exile by Patrick Worrall
<p>Inspired by the outbreak of war in Ukraine, Patrick was fascinated by the stories he saw on the news. In particular, he was stuck by the vulnerability of the young women travelling alone and the dangers that they might face when they arrive at their next destination. Patrick saw unique parallels between the war today and France of the Fourth Republic after WW2, a country haunted by the impact of the European War in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Alongside WW2 Lithuania, it is early post-war France that <em>The Exile </em>is set. Drawing on his own personal experiences, what he found out about early post war France, and his love for Lithuania which he has visited several times over the past 20 years as he has been happily married to a Lithuanian for that time - <em>The Exile </em>is Patrick’s take on what happens when the boundaries between state and organised crime breaks down and the threat that permeates around Europe - just as it does today. <br><br>For terms of use, please visit www.versushistory.com</p>
