Cybersecurity, ChatGPT, and Learning Chinese - An Interview

I spent March in 2023 in Taipei learning Mandarin Chinese and while there I was interviewed for the LTL school podcast. See the the video for a discussion I had with Rushi from LTL Language School about everyday cybersecurity, ChatGPT, and my experiences learning Mandarin Chinese!

Before the interview I thought a lot about what I wanted to say about language learning and I wasn’t expecting questions about cybersecurity, so in addition to botnets preying on our WiFi routers and the big tech companies collecting and selling our personal information, I didn’t realize to bring up probably the scariest reason for worrying about our personal information and taking good care of our cyber hygiene: identity theft.

Review of Studying Chinese in Taipei for a Month

I spent four weeks in Taipei in March to brush up on my Chinese. I had been studying it for about four years before my visit, and had been taking weekly free-talk lessons with online tutors for at least two years. However, the issues I hoped to address with this trip were my habit of reverting to English when I couldn’t find a way to express myself in Chinese, and my desire to become more comfortable speaking Mandarin, thus improving my fluency.
