zencastr.com service has taken a serious nose dive recently 👎. 2 recordings are bombed. Apart from Riverside.fm are there any other recommendations for online recording tools (mainly audio)?

and let's keep the coffee free
Yesterday, I did 2 AI conferences in Paris; different kind of vibes.
AdoptAI, a business show: pretty videos, promises about AI, 2.30€ coffee
NeurIPS@Paris, a research conference: equations, free coffee

AI business wouldn't exist without research. Let's not forget it and keep investing in research
