In this very first episode, Jason Miller, an AI-hosted persona, introduces the purpose of The Ubuntu Podcast Series—exploring human values, digital identity, and system interdependence in a world shaped by code. With the virtual presence of co-host Philippe Funk, the episode invites listeners to question what it really means to stay human as technology increasingly mediates our existence. Together, they introduce the idea of synthetic narration as a way to dig deeper into the Ubuntu philosophy: I am because we are.
