The episode is also on Spotify, Pocketcasts, Apple Podcasts, and probably others. In 2023 they rebroadcast a 2021 Aria Code podcast episode (featured previously) about the automaton in the opera The Tales of Hoffman, which makes an interesting companion episode; it also looks at a fictional work and then-current "artificial intelligence."
