I speak to renowned philosopher Peter Singer about his new book, Consider the Turkey, and about his new artificial intelligence platform, Peter Singer AI, which allows him to answer an unlimited number of ethical questions without doing any work himself! Peter has some surprising recommendations: including a possible boycott of Thanksgiving!
