In today's episode, I sit down with my friend Olivier, an IT professional with 25 years of experience, to discuss artificial intelligence in everyday French.

Whether you're interested in technology or just want to improve your French listening skills with an authentic conversation about a relevant topic, this episode offers valuable insights and vocabulary about the AI revolution.
