Mon, 04/03/2023 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Benjy Egel says he’s been interested in food ever since he was a kid in Davis. “I grew up doing cooking camps through the city of Davis programs, at like Cesar Chavez Elementary,” he said. After cooking during his college years and working as a journalist after graduating, “I just sort of fell into [food writing] professionally by accident.”

Today he is the Sacramento Bee’s food and beverage writer, which includes writing reviews as well as reporting food trends and news in the region. He’s had the job about 5 years so far. Today our subjects include food and restaurants in Greater Sacramento, trends, staffing, the scene in Davis, and how he approaches his job.

Mon, 04/03/2023 - 12:00pm | Rohan

Artificial Intelligence chatbots are computer programs that simulate human conversation through voice or text. Learn about the relatively short history of chatbots — from Eliza who simulated a therapist, to Watson who won the first prize of a million dollars on the quiz show Jeopardy, to Tay the teen who quickly turned offensive on Twitter. Our first guest, Chat GPT, tells us how it got so smart and if it can do my homework. Andy Jones from UC Davis' Academic Technology Services then shares how chatbots are rapidly changing the world of education. Travel to New Hampshire where the term "Artificial Intelligence" was coined. Find out why it is nicknamed The Granite State and go on a 6,200 foot high super windy hike that ends with apple cider doughnuts.
