This is The Guardian.
Hey, it's Michael Safi, host of The Guardian Investigates.
With a bit of news, we've made a brand new series of Black Box,
our chart-topping podcast about the way AI is reshaping our lives.
This time, it's all about AI chatbots.
Gemini, Claude, ChatJPT.
These new voices in our ear, guiding what we think and feel and do.
But should we trust them?
Black Box the Chatbots is coming very soon on the Guardian Investigates feed.
And because Today in Focus is off this week, we're bringing you the first season of Black Box instead.
These episodes are exactly as we broadcast them in 2024. And just a note,
yesterday we played an episode partly about the love story between a man named Lee Johnson
and his wife Yoki, who was diagnosed with cancer.
We found out this week that Yoki passed away on Wednesday morning.
Lee was with her to the end, and he asked us to let you all know.
We're sending our love to Lee, their daughter Rose, and their whole family.
May Yoki rest in peace.
Today's episode is next.
Melissa Williams lives about 20 minutes outside of Detroit, in a neighbourhood called Farmington Hills.
Very suburban neighbourhood, a lot of young families.
