Cochrane introduces the episode (number 1841) and provides various examples of buzzwords that have increased usage significantly since 2022, such as “surpassed,” “boast,” “meticulous,” and “strategically.” He reflects on the implications of these changes and recalls a personal experience where he unintentionally included AI-generated text in an email, illustrating his unease about this influence.
