In this episode, host Greg Doig takes us on a thought-provoking journey into the world of artificial intelligence and the hidden biases that can shape not only our technology, but also our conversations and culture. Greg shares an eye-opening experience with Claude AI, revealing how even supposedly objective systems can unconsciously default to certain viewpoints—like using "BCE/CE" instead of the traditional "BC/AD" when referencing historical dates. This sparks a bigger conversation about who gets to decide what’s considered neutral or inclusive, and whether our digital tools are quietly erasing longstanding perspectives in the name of progress. Tune in as Greg encourages you to question objectivity itself and reminds us all that the most important bias to spot might just be the one that claims not to exist.

The Beaver Island Radio Players present Ghost Story from the radio series Lights Out. It is the tale of a rather domineering woman, her husband and her habit of throwing rather wild dinner parties where bizarre things happen--a story that could never happen on Beaver Island.  From the Beaver Island Radio Workshop and WVBI -- The Voice of Beaver Island
