In this conversation, Rob Greenlee explores whether artificial general intelligence (AGI) could eventually produce podcasts that surpass human hosts. He argues that AGI’s capacity for deep research and real‑time interaction—exemplified by his own use of ChatGPT on a phone—makes it plausible for an AI to conduct live, interactive shows. The dialogue also touches on the idea of a podcast format where the host simply talks to ChatGPT and records the exchange, noting that this has already been tried on their own show. Greenlee predicts a split in listener preferences: some will cling to purely human‑driven podcasts, others will embrace a blended AI‑human experience, and a third group will gravitate toward fully AI‑generated content.

Well, that's part of my bigger point is that what does this wind up looking like? It could, could AGI actually generate better podcasts than humans? It's, I think it's not out of the realm of possibility that it could. Well, it could. 'Cause it's able to do deeper research. It's able to also be potentially interactive. I mean, until— I do talks with ChatGPT right now on my phone. So why couldn't it do that on a live podcast?
Until, well, you should try that. You should do a show where you just talk to your, ChatGPT and record it. Here's the thing. I've done it on this show. Yeah, that's true. We have done it on this show. So maybe that's an angle for a new show. That's a good idea. But here's the challenge with it. Will everyone buy in?
No, no, they won't. But that's going to be the dividing line, right? It's going to be ones that are wanting to live in the The human-dominated world, the ones that want to live in the, the blended AI-human-dominated world, and those that live entirely in the AI world.
