Anne Twitty adds historical nuance and asks whether abolitionists’ strong commitment to the public’s “right to hear” could inadvertently support a listener-centered case for protecting AI outputs. Tsesis replies that listener rights matter, but the First Amendment’s core remains human, speaker-centered expression. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/stanford-legal-523119/episodes/the-declaration-in-the-age-of-general-purpose-ai/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/stanford-legal-523119/the-declaration-in-the-age-of-general-purpose-ai.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
