+# Intro
+This dataset represents a compilation of transcripts from the Lex Fridman Podcast, obtained from https://steno.ai. The Lex Fridman Podcast, hosted by AI researcher at MIT, Lex Fridman, is a deep dive into a broad range of topics that touch on science, technology, history, philosophy, and the nature of intelligence, consciousness, love, and power.
