My searches have failed so far. But I may have oversold the fascinating part of it, the oddest part was that it was a weird mix of trying to explain complex math in chatty layman’s terms, with the two “hosts” randomly trading the jobs of being the explainer and the active listener back and forth between them. Hearing those two voices just casually trying to explain 14-dimensional math to each other was just not at all what I was expecting when I clicked on it, and I’m glad to know my intuition that something was just… off… about it had good reason.

Why do people keep insisting on cramming AI into everything when it’s barely even functional? Do they just think there magically won’t be consequences from replacing actual thinking humans with the digital equivalent of a dimwitted parrot on LSD? Sure, with Trump that damage is probably the goal, but this shit is everywhere now and nobody involved seems to even acknowledge that AI in its current state is garbage.

For the same reason everyone had to put a blockchain into everything last season.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t know what it does or how it works, all that matters is that everyone else is doing it so if you don’t copy them you’ll be left behind.

And putting everything on someone else’s computer in the cloud, before that.

It’s like everyone has their own personal Alex Jones.

I suspect (without actual evidence) that one reason is that if we do use it, we’re helping to train it. I mean yeah, they’re hoping to eventually make and save money with it, but it has to get better at what it does, and isn’t our usage of it helping it do that?
Anyway, that’s just one reason I try to avoid using it (the enormous planet warming energy it uses is another). That offer to use Copilot in Word pisses me off on the regular.

This is more of a cult leader. AJ isn’t really into love bombing.
A mother of two, for instance, told us how she watched in alarm as her former husband developed an all-consuming relationship with the OpenAI chatbot, calling it “Mama” and posting delirious rants about being a messiah in a new AI religion, while dressing in shamanic-looking robes and showing off freshly-inked tattoos of AI-generated spiritual symbols.
