I’m Dave Toaster feat. Jason Koebler

Must we live in a world where everyone decides we want AI-generated friends to make AI-generated stories (which are fake), or AI-enabled kitchen appliances? When you actually dig into this stuff, it turns out everyone knows it sucks and we hate it. Today’s guest is friend of the show Jason Koebler of 404 Media, who has done the legwork to examine just how stupid it is. Plus, we talk about Elon Musk’s new fixation on the UK, and that strangely sexual, AI-generated video of anthropomorphic animal cops that [Neil Kinnock voice] the Labour Party published?

Check out Jason’s work at 404 Media here!
