In an uncomfortable first for The Mind Tools L&D Podcast team, we’re handing over this week’s hosting duties to friend-of-the-show Matt Pleger, Organizational Development Consultant at UMass Memorial Health. Matt has been a long-time client of Ross G’s, and this time HE’S asking the questions. 

Owen, Ross G and Ross D discuss: 

In ‘What I Learned This Week’, Owen discussed Artifact, a new app from the minds behind Instagram: artifact.news/ 

Ross D discussed the AI companion who will never die, argue, or cheat: thecut.com/article/ai-artificial-intelligence-chatbot-replika-boyfriend.html  

And Matt discussed Google Lens (https://lens.google/), and why he keeps a ‘Commonplace’ book: wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonplace_book
