We debated this a lot internally -- specifically whether we should pick a less charged initial dataset to experiment with.
In the end, one of the reasons we decided to run with it was because we felt the controversy times listenership actually made it more needing of computer-assisted search.
There aren't a lot of potentially hazardous situations that could benefit from a deep analysis of Fresh Air, but there are quite a few situations related to Rogan's show that probably could have been engaged with more effectively if there was better access to the underlying data.
The hope is that easier search into "original/source data" will ultimately act as a net-positive societally. E.g.: best way to show the Rogan show was behaving irresponsibly during the pandemic is to make it really easy to get the receipts. But more generally -- so too on either side of any debate.
Totally agree on the "AI and nuance" problem. I think this is going to be perpetual (and good, and necessary) question that needs a lot of attention.
