In this episode of Explain It Like I’m 5, we break down what AI really is—without the jargon or the doom. Using talking toasters, toddler brains, and very confused goldfish, we explore how machines “learn,” what makes them “smart,” and why your playlist knows you better than your ex.

Perfect for curious humans, absolute beginners, and anyone who loves learning without the lecture.
