Podcast cover: On the Media

On the Media

This Peabody Award-winning podcast bills itself as pulling back the curtain on the fractured, increasingly digital news business to examine “how the sausage is made.” Hosts Brooke Gladstone and Bob Garfield discuss media coverage of the big stories of the week.

The introduction of AI tools and chatbots in classrooms across the United States has prompted an outcry among concerned parents, teachers, and students. OTM producer and new parent Molly Rosen speaks with Jessica Winter, staff writer at The New Yorker and author of the article “What Will It Take to Get A.I. Out of Schools?,” about how Google Chromebooks have infiltrated schools and what the research says about the impact of AI use on cognitive development.
