Hello and welcome back to a new season of the Tech for Good Live podcast. It’s a podcast all about using technology to have a positive social impact.

And of course that means that this week we are talking about knitting. Apparently some tech dudes bought knitting.com and it sounds like they’re the absolute worst.

Tom Hanks continues to show his range. He’s leapt into a volcano, he’s dated a mermaid, he got really big that one time, and now he’s selling dental plans online. Only, it’s not really him. We discuss the implications of AI and owning our own identities.

Host Bex is joined by Tech For Good Live team members Tom Passmore and Paul Jakubowski

Our special guest for the next couple of episodes is Aurelie Lionet. Aurelie is a seasoned Service Designer and one of the four co-founding members of Design Declares, which is a group of designers working together to declare a climate and ecological emergency. They’re committed to building a community and creating resources to adapt design practice towards climate action and regeneration.

Good story of the week:

Knitters vs the tech bros

The all-out revolt against Knitting.com helps explain boycotts at Reddit and Etsy - Quartz

Bad news story of the week:

AI Tom Hanks promoting “some dental plan”

Beware the AI-generated Tom Hanks. - The Verge

And finally

4.5m tall, 3.5ton £2.5 million robot suit

Japan startup unveils 15-foot robot suit for space exploration - The Independent

Listeners, what did you think? We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Get in touch on twitter @techforgoodlive or Email at hello@techforgood.live

We’d love it if you gave us a nice iTunes review and told your pals about this podcast!

Thanks to podcast.co for hosting our podcast.

Also, please don't forget this podcast is run by volunteers and we survive on sponsorships and donations. Right now one of our primary goals is to make sure all of our podcast episodes are accessible by making sure EVERY episode is transcribed. Sadly this costs money and we desperately need your help to make this become a reality! So if you've ever tuned into one of our podcasts or attended one of our events please consider chipping in the price of a cup of coffee.
