In this episode of the Mid Atlantic Podcast, we look into the complex world of AI and political bias with expert guest Maxim Lot. A seasoned journalist and data connoisseur, Maxim brings over 15 years of experience to the table, having worked with ABC, Fox, and as the founder of Maxim True Substack. His latest project, TrackingAI.org, is at the forefront of analysing political biases in AI, offering a unique perspective on the issue. The discussion navigates through the intricacies of data harvesting, AI algorithms, and the potential societal impacts of AI-driven technologies.Show Notes:Introduction to the topic of political bias in AI.Maxim Lot's extensive background in media and data analysis.Discussion on data harvesting, AI algorithm training, and their inherent biases.TrackingAI.org's innovative approach to evaluating AI biases.Debate on AI regulation and the balance between innovation and societal impact.Listener Q&A: Addressing the practical and ethical challenges of AI in various aspects of life.Closing thoughts: The need for a holistic approach to AI development and regulation.Quotes:Maxim Lot: "They just vacuumed the data and fed it into these AI algorithms. And so that's step one. Where there could be bias if Wikipedia is biased, if the Google News results are biased, that could lead to a biased data set."Roifield Brown: "However, I'm profoundly scared about an AI future and a scale of one to 10. You're a better man. You deal with statistics. How scared should I be about an AI-driven future?"Maxim Lot: "So I basically did this for all the AIs, ChatGPT, Bard, Rock, and just to see where they would come down on this political quiz."Roifield Brown: "I don't believe in a future which is run by tech companies and tech companies alone. I must admit, and that scares the bejesus out of me."Maxim Lot: "But in the nuclear industry, for example, where you obviously need some regulation, but now we have a situation where France, for example, most of their energy is produced with nuclear, and it's great, they've never, no one's, died from it, and they produce 70 percent of their energy with it, and it's clean, there's no CO2.

Have you ever thought about starting a podcast? Podcasting is an ever-growing ocean covering every topic your imagination can fathom.  What about the podcasters? Why did they start a podcast? What hurdles did they have to overcome along the way? What drives them to keep creating content?  There are now over a million podcasts in existence. That means people have many choices when they're looking for a podcast for whatever topic they’re seeking.  That means you have got to be on top of your game.  In this solo episode, I share seven of my best resources for new podcasters.  We are going to be talking about how to engage with other podcasters in the community, which conferences you should be attending, and detailing the equipment needed.  We are also going to be talking about what hosting company you should go with, how to get music, artwork, and many other great resources.  This episode is going to have so much great information! We also have a bonus for you in this episode.  We have put together a PDF guide that is going to be your go-to resource for this episode.   Show Notes: 1. Join Facebook Groups Podcaster’s Hangout was created by John Dennis to allow for the participation of community and collaboration of Podcasters around the world. Podcast Movement Community - For Podcasters was created by Podcast Movement (Dan Franks and Jared Easly) as a place for people who are podcasters, looking to become a podcaster, or who are members of the podcasting industry.  Independent Podcasters Group was created by Independent Podcast Conference (Joe Pardo) as a group designed to bring together independent podcasters. They are always looking to help others get to the next level and grow together.  Podcasters Paradise was created by the Entrepreneur on Fire Community (John Lee Dumas and Kate Erickson) as a place for fellow Paradisers to share valuable information, collaborate with other Paradise members, and provide others with constructive feedback on podcast-related topics.  She Podcasts was created by She Podcasts (Jessica Kupferman and Elsie Escobar) as a safe place for women and those who identify as female or identify as non-binary ONLY who podcast or who are setting up a show currently to ask questions, provide support, share resources, wins, advocate for each other and whatever else they like. 2.

Independent Podcasters Conference - September 24-26 Philadelphia, PA - ICON originally started out as Mid-Atlantic Podcast started (December 2014) as a Facebook group for podcasters who live in the Mid-Atlantic States. After seeing the interest to have a podcast (exclusive) conference in the northeast, Joe Pardo jumped on the opportunity to make it happen. This conference is for anyone that identifies as an independent podcaster all around the world.  3. Invest in quality equipment Microphones: I highly recommend a dynamic microphone, because they are more forgiving and have an easier learning curve.  Avoid a condenser microphone. Shure SM 58 - This microphone is very durable and great for traveling.   Audio Technica ATR2100 - Most popular microphone in all of podcasting. Kit with boom arm, shock mount, pop filter, and cable  Electro-Voice RE320 - This is the microphone I am currently using and my favorite mic.  Recorders:  Rodecaster Pro - This widely used and adored product can support multi- track recording and easily bring in guests.  Zoom H5 - Zoom recorders don’t require a computer.  You just record directly onto the SD card.  The interface is intuitive and easy to follow.   Zoom H6  Zoom F4 - This recorder is more portable with many awesome features.  USB Interface Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 - The best USB interface on the market and all you need.   Microphone Accessories: You want a microphone stand that will bring the microphone up to your mouth.   Boom Arm I recommend the Rode PSA 1.  Tabletop Stand  Pop Filter or a windscreen 4. Podcast Hosting CompanyIt is important to partner with a reputable hosting company because they are going to give you reliable service and reliable stats.

Your Favorite Podcast Events – Episode 162   This week, I wanted to review your favorite podcast events. I put out the call for suggestions. Most replies that I received said, "Erik, I haven't attended any podcast events."   That's a shame. There are quite a few great gatherings that can really help you grow.   BENEFITTING FROM EVENTS There were a few suggestions. I also received an e-mail from Cynthia, who was really dejected after attending a conference.   Dear Erik,   I actually attended the National Religious Broadcasters Convention twice hoping to find a way to boost my show and possibly find a radio station that would want to pick it up.   Sadly, I spent a lot of money, but didn't feel I was able to justify the expense. I was looking for people who were interested in helping me, but all I met were people looking for people who could enrich themselves.   It wasn't a total waste because some of the sessions were informative and educational. However, I didn't have one contact that materialized into anything lasting. I may have found some guests, but they were just "one time guests".   I appreciate your ideas of how to have a real conversation with others for a lasting impact. Podcasting can feel very lonely. I don't have a team working with me.   There will always be people who want to have us buy their services, but there's not much to buy until we have a funding stream.   Sincerely, Cynthia Home Front www.CynthiaDavis.net   GIVE FIRST When you attend an event, I think you need to approach it differently. Seek to give. Seek to help. What you send out will return to you.   Cynthia, it is time for some tough love.   You say you were "looking for people who were interested in helping me, but all I met were people looking for people who could enrich themselves." You mention that you "didn't have one contact that materialized into anything lasting. I may have found some guests, but they were just 'one time guests'".   Rarely do people go to events wondering, "Hmm. Who can I help today." That means you can stand out and be unique by asking that very question.   You can have a real conversation with others for lasting impact by seeking to help them. Talk about them. Discover their struggles. Where you can you help them succeed.   The theory of reciprocity will naturally take effect. People will be more open to helping you if you first help them.   However, don't expect reciprocity. Let it happen organically, and don't be upset if it doesn't. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.   MY UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP Being in radio for nearly 30 years, I have attended many, many conferences. I have attended conferences for radio, podcasting, coaching hockey and others. The opportunity to learn and grow excites me.   My first conference came when I was in college. As the Music Director of the college radio station (and a member of a rap group), I attended the CMJ Music Marathon in New York City put on by the College Music Journal.   It was the summer of 1989. October 26th at the Vista Hotel in New York City at the foot of the World Trade Center.   George Clinton and Ice-T were the keynote speakers. I had a great chat with Ice-T in the lobby of the hotel.   One of my most bizarre relationships began at the CMJ Music Marathon that year.   Each night during the conference, there would be music showcases all around town. Most were free with your conference pass.   Doc and I grabbed a cab and went to NYU to see a hip-hop show. Doc was the other half of my rap duo. Yep. True story.   On the bill that night were quite a few artists. Third Bass, Black Sheep, Young Black Teenagers and others performed. Heavy D. was in the audience checking out the show. The Geto Boys even tried to get up on stage at the end of the show before the sound guy cut their mics.   Third Bass was made up of MC Serch, Prime Minister Pete Nice and DJ Richie Rich. Third Bass was also notable as one of the first, successful, interracial hip-hop groups.   "Pop Goes The Weasel" was the biggest single of Third Bass' career. They also had a minor hit with "The Gas Face" from "The Cactus Album". It was their first album, which the group had just released a month after this concert.   On my show on the college station, I had been playing Third Bass for a few months by this time. Their first single was a tune called "Steppin' To The A.M." It sampled Pink Floyd's "Time". I played the tune a lot on the radio at a time when rap and hip-hop were not part of the mainstream. This was 1989. My airplay helped the song climbed to #5 on the U.S. Rap Chart in some small way.   Jump ahead 17 years to 2006. By this time I was the Program Director of a Top 40 radio station. Third Bass had broken up for a second time 6 years earlier. MC Serch had left his job as a morning radio host to work full-time at Serchlite Music, a promotion company he ran.   Serch was calling radio stations to talk to Program Directors and trying to convince them to play particular singles. I happen to be one of his weekly calls.   During our first call, Serch tells me my name sounds familiar. Johnson isn't the most unique name, so I figure he is just trying to be friendly. He asks where I have worked in the past, that maybe our paths had crossed before.   Unlike many in the business, my radio career had not taken me all over the country. I had worked in Omaha and Lincoln, Nebraska at this point in my career. That is what I told Serch.   We got to talking about my start at the college station in Lincoln. I told him I started one of the first shows dedicated to rap and hip-hop in the state.   ARE YOU KIDDING ME? That is when it happened.   Serch said, "That's it! You were a huge supporter for us back then!"   I said, "Oh, yeah. I played the crud out of 'Steppin' To The A.M.' I loved that record."   That's when Serch said, "Yeah, you did. We thanked you in the credits of that album for all of your support."   What!?! I'm in the liner notes? How did I not know this?   I said, "Are you kidding me? I didn't know that."   "You bet," he told me. "You were a big part of getting us off the ground."   That night, I went home and got out my "Cactus Album" CD. Sure enough, there I was in the liner notes.   I had made a connection and difference at that conference 17 years earlier and hadn't even realized it.   And that's my point. When you are at a conference, you never know what might happen or who you might meet. The meeting may not mean anyting at the time. It may not make a difference in the next decade. However, it may just change somebody's life in ways you never intended.   When you are at a gathering, seek to give and help first. It will all come back around.   Cynthia did say, "It wasn't a total waste because some of the sessions were informative and educational." So, where can you find podcast events to make meaningful connections?   SOME OF THE TOP PODCAST EVENTS Many people who responded to my ask haven't attended podcasting events. This is a list I have gathered from a few of the best podcasting minds in the industry. I have attended a few of these. I also received recommendations from Dave Jackson at School of Podcasting and Daniel J. Lewis at The Audacity To Podcast and Podcasters' Society.   Ticket prices and info are as accurate as I could find as of this date. All are subject to change and the accuracy is not guaranteed by any means.
