**Bernie’s Notes**
You may have noticed the article under TRANSIT about subway voices and AI. I was not aware of the article until it popped up on my daily scan of stories for my newsletters. I was happy to see there are no plans to replace my voice. I have reached out to the reporter and responded to her questions.
