A warning to people with Academia.edu accounts (as most academics do): if you don't know it yet, they've turned into AI shills. As well as this "podcast", they've also tried to sell me AI-compiled bibliographies. You can go to settings and opt out easily, and I recommend you do.

The ratings gap has financial consequences and non-white workers were found to earn 91 cents for every dollar their white counterparts made for the same work
