| 0:00.0 | Hi, listeners, this is Matt, co-founder here at Longview. And before we get to the show, |
| 0:08.1 | I just wanted to share something you may already know, but may not fully appreciate. |
| 0:12.6 | Our whole project only exists because of subscribers. |
| 0:17.4 | Advertising, of course, helps, but it isn't enough. Because the reporting that defines this work, the kind that takes time and patience and independence, is funded by people who choose to subscribe. |
| 0:28.9 | Your support is what allows us to investigate the stories that we're working on right now, reporting on why the economy feels broken and incomprehensible to many of us, reporting on health and longevity, |

| 1:52.3 | We are the AI generation. |
| 1:55.2 | Called AI for Good. |
| 1:57.0 | And simply put, the goal of AI for Good is to help solve the world's most pressing challenges using AI. |
| 2:04.2 | Where, broadly speaking, the sentiments around the future with AI were pretty bright. |
| 2:09.6 | And when you think about artificial intelligence, how does it make you feel? |
