Welcome back to Machine Learning Applied. We're not going to discuss anything technical in this episode, just a little bit of fun. I want to show you a cool project I'm using. The project is called Descript. It's a podcast recording tool, software on your Mac or Windows, and I'm using it to record this episode, and I used it to record the last few episodes ever since I came on to Depbt because Debt's podcasting branch has a pro
