E-16-When Convenience Becomes Control: Are We Trading Sense For Systems?

A quiet schedule change says a lot: one of us left weekend hospital shifts for a school‑day job with four‑day summers and a stack of holidays. That calm rhythm runs against a louder story—data centers going up in small towns, AI threading through classrooms and clinics, robots learning as a fleet, and convenience systems that start helpful and end deciding for you.

We map the past year and set a plan for 26. In the classroom, touch screens and Chromebooks replace chalkboards while the debate shifts from memory to real‑world problem‑solving. In healthcare, tele‑rounds bring specialists to the bedside by screen, saving time and exposing a new trust gap. On the ground, rumors of 300‑acre data centers, worker camps, and massive power and water draws turn local maps into infrastructure plays. We talk numbers, tradeoffs, and the physical cost of the cloud.

Then we stress‑test “Nova,” a voice AI that answers in real time. It’s fun until it isn’t: ad‑supported assistants, shifting guidelines, and guardrails that change mid‑conversation. We look at Walmart’s AI‑tightened self‑checkout and ask whether shrink savings simply replace the lost margin of impulse buys. We also wade into the spiritual side—mega churches beaming sermons across campuses—and the risk of deepfakes steering thousands from a single compromised feed. The theme keeps returning to the same hinge: when does helpful cross into controlling, and how do we keep agency?

Our 26 roadmap is simple and stubbornly human: more interviews, local reporting on data center build‑outs, and a yearlong ledger tracking land use, electricity, and water impact. We’ll test the claims, document the creep, and keep a clear eye on what automation gives and what it quietly takes. Hit play if you want a grounded take on AI, data centers, education tech, remote care, and everyday choices that still belong to you.

Kicking Off At Chillicothe Hospital

SPEAKER_04 1:19

Welcome to live from the old abandoned Chillicothe Hospital. Chillicothe, Texas. This is the B to the E to the Z. And that is B Easy. B Easy, baby. Yo, yo, yo. So, y'all think about the topic I said, uh recap of 25? Or what your memories of 25?

SPEAKER_02 1:43

Like, what, personally?

SPEAKER_04 1:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:45

The same old world's gone crazy. Yeah, just your past outlook. Uh I don't know, just like unexpected shit. Like, I wouldn't who'd have thought I worked in school, you know, like a year ago. No. Has it been a year? Well, I started like in June. At the point a year ago, I had no idea. Like in January last year. I was still like two more months at United. I left there in February and then unemployed for a period. I think in June.

SPEAKER_04 2:09

So 26. 25 was pretty good for you. You have to watch what we talk about now. Like you can't guess. Yeah, yeah. What? Because of school?

SPEAKER_02 2:19

Well, in some ways.

SPEAKER_04 2:20

Yeah. No, we just gotta we just gotta watch what we put out. Right. I can edit anything. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 2:26

Well, still people, I still I'm surprised by people that come up to me in the last month even and have said, you know, hey, I listen to it.

SPEAKER_01 2:32

I'm like, oh shit.

SPEAKER_02 2:34

Oh, really?

Year 25 Recap And New Jobs

SPEAKER_04 2:34

I haven't had nobody say nothing about it. Yeah, even recently. I haven't had no feedback, good or bad. Gordy told me that when they go on vacation, they listen to it all the way there and all the way back.

SPEAKER_07 2:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 2:49

So so working at the school. So it hadn't been a whole year yet. When'd you start? June. Oh, so it's not been a year.

SPEAKER_02 2:57

Yeah, but I mean just during the year. Even at the first of last year. At this point last year, I would have never guessed that. Now you got retired. Yeah. Like I said, man, it's like a lot of stuff I'd never thought of really crazy schedule. Like another like today, another three-day weekend, like holiday, you know.

SPEAKER_04 3:13

I want my old dad's old job if I worked for school.

SPEAKER_02 3:16

Yeah. Otherwise, like I said, the schedule's grade grade. For other jobs I work, work in the hospital and working United every weekend, every holiday. So what is your schedule? Like a school schedule, pretty much. You don't have to be there early or nothing? Yeah, like a seven. I work like seven to four. I got a lunch. Ain't nothing wrong with that. But uh and Monday through Friday. Uh look at the next one. So many holidays, so many four-day weeks. Hey, you make it a week. You make it a snow day this week. And like the biggest break was that holiday, like Christmas. Snow? It's supposed to be Saturday. Friday, Saturday. They got, yeah, like it's like the highest 20 Saturday. We fix it and get winter.

SPEAKER_04 3:52

Winter for a month.

SPEAKER_02 3:53

Yeah, well, that's when we get it every year. It's been like the end of January and February last few weeks. Not consecutive days. We've held off and had it mild and had the shit be bad in February. Yeah, February usually are cold, isn't it? It's got it's got the high 20 and the lower nine Saturday. 70% chance of snow or something. So they change it. That changes off.

SPEAKER_04 4:16

Yeah. I hope we get some moisture because maybe.

SPEAKER_02 4:20

They do have that. Nah, but anyway, like in the summertime, I work four-day weeks, Monday through Thursday. Oh, really? What? That's why I did all this last summer. That's how it's gonna be. And you still get your other time take. I get all those holidays and everything else, and then I still got you know vacation time sometimes. Yeah. I mean, there ain't I ain't I ain't never heard of a job. It's it's unreal. Well, uh, how many schools are going to school only four days a week? A lot around here. Yeah, at some point, it's almost that here, dude. Like I'm saying, it's not that many. It's rare that we'll have like two or three consecutive five-day weeks.

SPEAKER_04 4:52

I mean, so what are we teaching our kids? That's that's what I want to know. I seen oh I seen where Elon Elon Musk was trying to say we need to teach our kids different. We don't need them to uh reho remember certain terms and certain things. They need to know they need to real life problems how to solve real life problems because they said uh AI is gonna you don't need to know anything. Yeah, you're gonna be dumbering a box of rocks. I mean you don't you don't need to know anything. What you do need to know is how to live. And they're not gonna know how to do that. Well, they're gonna have to start teaching that in school. That's what I'm saying. Like what, hunting, fishing, or what?

SPEAKER_02 5:31

This a this looks like a classroom, dude. That's the main thing. It's got a big screen like that. There's a big touch screen instead of a blackboard or anything. Everything's like that. Yeah. In every room. And everybody has a good a Chromebook. Yeah. That's and that's basically it. And everything's set up that way. Teachers, everything like you remember how everybody had any kind of books, grade books, or their uh what is it, lesson plans and shit? There's nothing like that.

SPEAKER_04 5:51

So now the only ones that are going to actually uh learn anything are the ones that have, you know, uh photographic memories and shit. Well, that's what Elon was saying. Don't teach them that kind of stuff where you need memory, because you can look up anything and find it. The answer to any tip. Right. But you need to know how to do like common sense basic stuff, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 6:14

Well, I don't know how you figure out what's AI and what's not.

SPEAKER_04 6:16

But the teacher then is that so much books.

SPEAKER_02 6:20

There ain't gonna be no teachers.

SPEAKER_04 6:21

AI is gonna be the teacher.

SPEAKER_02 6:22

But AI, so much is not real, man.

School Schedules, Holidays, And Life Rhythm

SPEAKER_04 6:23

You know, there's not gonna be any teacher. Well, AI will be the teacher. So they're gonna get rid of teachers? Eventually, you know they will. They said that about a lot of people. They'll be remote. Well, hell, the teachers can't keep their uh hands off the kids. I mean, come on, bro. It's probably a good thing.

SPEAKER_02 6:37

Well, that's how they even like my dad was in the hospital recently, like and there's certain uh some doctors they're they're just sitting in a room and they're like there's a screen in your room in the hospital. Really? And that's where you see the doctor.

SPEAKER_07 6:47

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 6:48

In Wichita now, they have a program. I can't remember what you call it, but they it's even bigger other places, but they have like a program of it in Wichita too.

SPEAKER_04 6:54

So doctors don't even have to make his rounds.

SPEAKER_02 6:56

Because there's not there's not enough of them to go around. Certain kinds of doctors and certain nurses, like the people that do like the planning and stuff for while they're in the hospital and stuff. There's a nurse they'll sit on there once a day, it comes up until you know, and you got like 15 minutes with them or whatever. But they ain't got time to go to all the rooms because there's only so many of them. So they're on a screen, there's a screen in your room.

SPEAKER_04 7:13

That's wild. Mm-hmm. So that's so that all happened in 25?

SPEAKER_02 7:18

That was not that was 26. That happened on the 19th century.

SPEAKER_04 7:20

But I'm saying that so we've come in 25. We've all so at the beginning of 25. In one year, we've come further than we've come in the past 80. Well, I'm just saying, was AI even a big deal in the beginning of 25? No. They did different things. I just don't know how they kept it hid this whole time. Everybody, you know what I'm saying? The government that's all of a sudden it came out, it's fucking boom, you know. They didn't call it that. It's just artificial. I mean, the first people that I I mean we've had series. I don't know. Uh have you seen some of the other stuff? The telephone company. What about them? First people I remember using AI. Automated service. Oh, yeah. Was telephone companies. Right. You're right. Yep. Operator. Yep. Gotta answer certain questions so they know where to send you and shit, you know. That was been a long time.

SPEAKER_02 8:07

Well, they got it's already doing things to itself. AI has already like taught itself things that they don't even know how. The people that originally started it, they don't that's why they're all scared of it. Because they don't even understand how it does that, how it learns. Well, we didn't make AI anyway. I guess. That's what it seems like.

SPEAKER_04 8:23

I mean, it's a we put in a certain code and that's it to already a code which came off a down spaceship, I'm sure. I did I did see where Chat GPT is fishing to start putting ads on. And they're fishing to release the paid version. For free. Oh no. No, you're gonna pay. Yeah, ChatGPT is not gonna be free very much longer. What or how much it's gonna be? Depends on what level you want. Level. Do you want I mean do you want like basic stuff you might get answers, but you want complex, you're gonna have to get the the bigger, uh higher.

SPEAKER_07 8:58

You're gonna have to run your house and shit and all that.

SPEAKER_04 9:00

I mean, no, I'm serious. Um like if you just want basic questions like what's five plus five, they might be free. But if you want to be like, hey, how do I rewire this 220 plug for my uh you're gonna poke the phone? Mm-hmm. They got it doing all the stuff too. Have you seen the the robots they have that? Hey, in YouTube right now is still free.

SPEAKER_02 9:20

I don't know why they wouldn't. They're fixing they can physically outdo people because they have like 360 degree joints. They move like people. Like they have four, yeah. We seen the ones that like can I mean they can jump and run and they move like they're like their movements look like people. Except they like they don't they have like they can see all the way around them, they have 360 degree, they're like better than people already. Better they can do things more like in the so they can do they're fixing to have them all working like people jobs, like in a factory, not just the big crazy robots, but look like people, man, that do all those jobs.

SPEAKER_04 9:51

So, what's gonna happen to the human race?

SPEAKER_02 9:53

And they just show them like one time and then the robot's gonna have to work. And you teach that robot one robot how they're gonna survive. And it's like teaching them all. Like when one knows they share the consciousness, they have they all learn it. Like in the program, you show one of them how to do it.

SPEAKER_04 10:05

Well, I mean a lot of people in this country want to be taken care of. They want to be showed what to do, how to live. Like there I think some people will I think the government will just take over. And they'll they'll decide whether you live or die.

SPEAKER_02 10:21

Well, it's kind of like when they use that one that's like a bomb dog and stuff like that, like firemen and stuff, like going into a fire and doing stuff. You can, you know, you can have them do things people can't do. They do that already? Yeah, they can. That's what they're probably doing.

SPEAKER_04 10:32

But they already got them robots that they send out there to defuse bombs.

SPEAKER_02 10:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 10:35

They've had them for a while.

AI In Schools And Learning Shifts

SPEAKER_02 10:36

And they haven't go into dangerous situations like where there's gas or whatever else. They haven't they can go in and do things. And they're just getting, like I said, better, more physically able to what they can do. And we're just getting on their own. Well, and there's nobody even looking at they have a camera, like I said, that can see things. But we gotta control it. Well, some of it. Yeah, but no, no, nobody's controlling most of them. Like the ones they were showing, like that we're doing stuff. There's nobody like on us that's controlling it. It's doing itself, it's running its own program, seeing and learning what's around it.

SPEAKER_04 11:02

SFL safe, is what I want to know. Where's the fucking shutdown button?

SPEAKER_02 11:06

They've had to do some of them that way. I've seen some of that have gone off and they fucking had to like basically unplug them and smack them.

SPEAKER_04 11:14

So we better all our personal EMP or what? So 25, we've come a long ways with AI. And zombie robots. Because I don't remember a lot of AI, I don't remember a lot of AI talk going on at the beginning of 25. Data centers, none of that. So this year we've already got ready exposed.

SPEAKER_02 11:33

Well that's like the getting ready. Like they're talking about how much electricity it uses and stuff because it needs so much more memory and everything else. Like the cloud's not even close to big enough. Yeah, that's why they're doing the data centers. Yes. Store the data. How many? Everywhere, like everywhere. Everywhere. Because they gotta know everything. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 11:49

Like in every so all the s so you know, like we see in movies and stuff that uh they go to certain planets and shit, that there's no ground, it's all, you know, electronic stuff. They built up on it, yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's what we're about to do. How come we can't put them in the sea? That's what they need to do. Data center. Uh I've seen where there uh one country was doing that.

SPEAKER_02 12:11

Because people are still doing it. Wait till they take whenever the robots are doing it long enough, they're gonna figure a lot of shit out. That's what they're saying, too. That they're gonna figure a lot of stuff out, we didn't even think about.

SPEAKER_04 12:20

Yeah, like how to conserve energy, conserve water. That I think that actually they could come up with something to develop how we can conserve water. Okay, so but let's think about it like this. So we know that every major country has a spaceship that they have been reverse technology. Every, every major country, every major country. We're we're gonna we're gonna watch some of this here later. But uh so what if AI is controlled, just not by us.

SPEAKER_02 12:56

I'm sure there's some yeah, I'm I'm sure it's getting there if it ain't.

SPEAKER_04 13:00

You know, that's I mean that's revelation talks about the it, you know, the Antichrist, there'd be a statue of him, and he'll be able that they just didn't know the word AI. Right. And uh, you know, there'll be he'll be able to answer any question. It'll move. It can answer any question you ask it. We're already there. We're already there, yeah, bro. We are. Well, I'm sorry, okay, so 25 AI, Zach, what do you anything in 25 that you remember that was good, bad, ugly in 25? They all run together now. Yeah. I mean like they do. Uh when you get older, it's like, how many years ago was that?

SPEAKER_01 13:43

I mean, no, like when COVID came, that was like a huge thing.

SPEAKER_02 13:46

How long ago was that now? 2020. Yeah, that kinda changed a lot of shit.

SPEAKER_04 13:51

Okay, so 25 okay, so 26. We're going in at 26. What do you want to do or get out of 26? For yourself personally or your family or whatever. I need to build an EMP. Okay, there you go. Hey, you got you gotta go, set it, get it done. Right? I mean, I'm just saying it. How are we gonna stop them taking no fail safe? The only way you do is shut them down. That's the only way to do to shut them all down. Uh I don't know, man. Uh I don't know what the answer to that is.

SPEAKER_02 14:27

You gotta get off grid. You think so? You gotta live off grid. Yeah, well, I mean hell, I've wanted to be a hermit a long time. I'll go live in the mountains and the city.

SPEAKER_04 14:34

But you know they're gonna be like made of platinum and shit. Shit that you can't shoot through even. That's the thing. Uh you try to move off the grid and there'll be a data center right next to you and you can't even shoot. A bunch of solar panels, you're getting cancer.

SPEAKER_01 14:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 14:45

There ain't no feeling what that shit causes. So 25 goals or 26 goals, Earl. What do you got?

SPEAKER_02 14:52

Any? Uh personally, I just need to get a little more motivated and do some shit around the house. I mean, the EMP, I better do it.

SPEAKER_04 15:01

Well, you got the new job trying to transition into that.

SPEAKER_02 15:04

Yeah. Yeah, some weeds in the backyard that out of control. I got some goats if you want them. I'm not need to if the dogs would need them. Oh, yeah.

Will AI Replace Teachers And Doctors?

SPEAKER_04 15:14

All these complications. So 25, 26, my goals, okay, so in 26, I've already started a new job. Right. It's kind of like your school days. Schedule. Yeah, yeah, state job or whatever, ain't it? Yep. So state similar schedule here. Yeah. I got a goal, 26. Try to make sure that's money off Google. You're gonna make money off Google? Google tried. I'm gonna you know.

SPEAKER_07 15:41

You know, let's uh like housing.

SPEAKER_04 15:44

Yeah. Twenty-six, make some money. I may have to because my ass is broke or something. But yeah. Twenty-six is here and the BZ podcast recap twenty-five. What do you think? Pretty good.

SPEAKER_07 16:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 16:06

Fourteen episodes. Some we need to revisit, maybe.

SPEAKER_02 16:11

Yeah, I probably saw some we didn't do quite what we thought. Maybe yeah. Maybe to update some of 'em. Oh. Probably could, yeah. Because they start getting it is it does help like sometimes when you release them more timely as far as people hearing stuff and recognizing. I mean some of them are some of them are timeless, you know, they don't have to be in certain time. Well, like Sharon, have you talked to her lately? Oh no. Uh-uh. I need to barely I I don't even know if I still have her number. I got it again and then I probably lost it. I got it from Judy. And then uh Yeah, stuff like that though. Yeah, talk about revisit stuff like that's timeless, I mean, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 16:43

So on 26, what do you what do you want to do on the podcast? What do you want in what direction? More interviews, interviews? Uh uh, you know, we just gotta think we're about to stay on top of AI, to be honest. Conspiracy theories. No, I'm not even just I'm just talking about from everywhere, from every aspect of it, from here to what people are getting per acre to to to to the to the beginning. Let's just see how far we take it, how far it goes in a year, so we can mark today. Okay. So we know where we're at a year from now. We're gonna see how much of our country is is swallowed up by solar panels and data centers. Then we're gonna very math on that and see how many years before the whole earth is no covered in data centers. So basically, I mean it's all you can do math on all of it. Yeah, so this would be our gauge for one year. We have one data center in the area, right? Kirk Kirkland right now. Yeah. I heard they broke ground on one across the road that's supposed to be way bigger than the other side. Really? What they're telling me.

SPEAKER_02 17:47

Well they talk about it in Wichita Falls though too, right? Oh yeah. Two of them there. Wichita Falls? Supposed to get like two of 'em.

SPEAKER_04 17:54

Vernon's supposed to get something 300 acres. That's what they're looking for. That's what I heard. It was a 300 acre uh data center. And they said they're building I don't know if this is true or not. You hear so much shit. Right across the river on the Peas River Bridge, right over right past the bridge, they're supposed to build a four thousand man person man camp to bring all the workers in. Oh, really? So there'll be no more making money off of it? Well, I mean there'll be some overflow, but not as much, yeah. So I wonder what who who bought that land, where they got that land from. Probably what whatever company is building the data center, which is smart. Because they can pay for that and save them a shit ton of money. But that don't make no sense though. Why would they do it if they're only gonna be here like four years? That's what I said. They're not here at four years. They're trailers, dude. They're like trailers, they pick them up, fucking move them when they're done.

SPEAKER_02 18:51

Oh, they just move in and move out?

SPEAKER_04 18:52

They're them trailers like they use in fucking uh West Texas for oil fields. They're just right a trailer house that has like five doors and they're just like rooms. So basically, you know, after they go ahead and do all that pavement and everything else that they're gonna do out there, when they're done, they're just gonna pick up and then that'll be just worthless ass land. Yeah.

unknown 19:10

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_04 19:11

Gravel. They probably won't even pavement. It's just like that fool that says, Yeah, I'll take that pavement to let you put all your damn pavement on my damn land, you know, when they're tearing up roads and shit. Suppose they they bought the land. That shit's there forever. They bought it. They bought it. Well but I mean, really, if you look at it, okay, so if you provide housing f if you're the company and you provide housing, you don't have to pay as much for them. Oh yeah, none. So well, food for them, but no housing, so you're saving yourself. Then they'll do they'll lower their salaries because of that too, you know. Depends on what kind of workers they got. So be training cobalt these days, is all I know. I don't I don't know what company this is. The one in children's. Uh I don't know what they pay their guys for DM, but I'm pretty sure I think it's a lot. I wonder how many people are really looking to be out of a job because of AI.

SPEAKER_02 20:05

A lot they say.

SPEAKER_04 20:07

Uh I think it will, I think it's just more every day. I'm talking about all problem solvers, all people that's what they did, you know, with the ITs and shit.

SPEAKER_02 20:14

Oh, yeah. That's what it said. Like people they thought a couple years ago, like it was a big deal to write code and write programs and stuff. There's like there's no need for that no more. Because they do it themselves. Yeah, they wrap the code.

Data Centers, Power, And Water Demands

SPEAKER_04 20:24

Better be able to write that code and shut their ass. So really so really like computer jobs are not like they what they thought. They're not long term. Yeah. Wow, they're just gonna make a stupid, retarded next generation. I mean, they they worked on. Hard not on our generation, but the generation after us. They started working on it then. But just think about their kids now. Common sense is gone, people.

SPEAKER_02 20:49

Well, that was the internet. Just when they put fucking everything and you could access whatever.

SPEAKER_04 20:54

AI was started with the internet. Everybody got stupider. AI started with the internet. Internet, because you could Google whatever you want and find out exactly what took the most time. Internet. YouTube. Yeah. As far as one platform. YouTube is the it's yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:12

Well, as far as like just showing you right there.

SPEAKER_04 21:14

Showing you how to do stuff. Absolutely. But I've done stuff by watching a YouTube video that I probably would never have figured out on my own.

SPEAKER_02 21:20

Absolutely. Shit, everybody in the world. Or you got somebody like you stumbled through it, but you just watched somebody do it and then that's I mean, what are the things? All the tricks of the trades and shit.

SPEAKER_04 21:28

Yeah, like, okay, I'm gonna take this apart. I cannot find what there's one screw holding on, and I can't find it. And the only way you would know is if somebody else had done it before you and say, you remove this the cars.

SPEAKER_03 21:40

Now all you gotta do is S chat GV cart. Especially with the car.

SPEAKER_04 21:43

That's why I'm not a very good mechanic. Oh, not either, but I'm like, damn, I don't see. Where how do you get this off? Yeah. And you know, you have to stand on your head one. Oh it's up around under there.

SPEAKER_02 21:53

Yeah, I can't. I'm not that kind of or yeah, anything inside the door. Anything. Any part of it. Like they just show you how that's why a mechanic used to without tearing shit.

SPEAKER_04 22:04

Well, that I think that might still be important. Mechanicking? You think I AI can do that? I mean they can tell you how to do it, but Oh, eventually, yeah. Yeah, they do with them robots. So I guess so I guess you wouldn't need a mechanic because you're not.

SPEAKER_02 22:16

That's what the first ones they're doing are building cars.

SPEAKER_04 22:18

Uh ones I've seen.

SPEAKER_02 22:20

I mean, they they to every aspect of it, to screwing in the nuts on it, to everything. Looking like people doing it. Besides those other robots. You know how the ones some of them didn't look they're AI constructs. Yeah, they don't. Like heavy lifts and stuff. No, they got some now that are looking like people.

SPEAKER_04 22:34

You know, Walmart started this two years ago. They started going in every Walmart there was and s and opening the aisles up and they rearranged everything that's ever Walmart because they said that they will be completely self-sufficient by like two years. That means you're gonna nobody gets to go in. Yeah, I heard that you're gonna bring it to the core. Well I've done that.

SPEAKER_02 22:54

But we've been doing that like the Walmart where you pick it up. They've even delivered it. Have you had it delivered? Yeah. Certainly, not every day of the week, but you can have like for$9.99, they bring it. You know, it it like within two hours.

SPEAKER_04 23:04

It's a whole lot smarter to do it that way because there's no uh what's it called?

SPEAKER_03 23:07

Shopping uh impulse shopping.

SPEAKER_02 23:09

You don't do any impulse.

SPEAKER_03 23:10

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_04 23:10

So it really okay, so I read a deal about that. So it really, yes, they'll lose money because you won't go in there and buy two pairs of underwear just because you like damn it. Yeah, I need those. Yeah, whatever. So those will be on the floor. But the money they save from theft equals the balances it out. Oh, so they don't lose nothing now to theft. Well, employee theft, but let's just see about it. Let's just ask old chat GBT. How much they lose? How much money did Walmart lose last year at the Oh a lot. Let's calculate that in.

SPEAKER_02 23:44

It's probably like 40% or something.

SPEAKER_04 23:45

If you do automated where you don't go inside, you cut that element out. Yeah. That or not out.

SPEAKER_02 23:50

Well, even like when we started doing the self-checkout that kind of went up, but then they figured it out and how to get it down. Have you done that? Have you done self-checkout now? And they try a new personality and you missed something now? Uh-uh. What happened? You done that? Like they come right over. Oh, did you try to get anything already? And it knows, yeah, it's already watching you all eye. And it can tell by your receipt, right?

SPEAKER_00 24:07

If you have any specific personality or style in mind, no, I just got a question for you.

SPEAKER_04 24:12

Wait, what the heck?

SPEAKER_00 24:13

Of course, I'm all yours. What's your question?

SPEAKER_03 24:15

So, how much money did Walmart lose last year in theft?

SPEAKER_04 24:22

Is that stranger things music?

SPEAKER_00 24:24

In 2023, Walmart reported significant losses due to theft. And while exact figures for 2025 are available yet, the company has been actively working on solutions. They've enhanced self-checkout security with AI.

SPEAKER_04 24:37

Okay, that's not what I asked you. I asked you how much money is. Yeah. Right. How do you have yours talk like a woman?

SPEAKER_00 25:05

For example, in 2022, it was estimated that Walmart lost over three billion dollars to theft. Uh so a similar figure likely applies for 2023 as well.

SPEAKER_04 25:14

So how so do you know my name? Our first guest at 26. Was it a replicant? What's her name?

SPEAKER_02 25:21

SPEAKER_04 27:02

Okay, so uh the B E Z podcast. Who are the uh individuals in the podcast?

SPEAKER_00 27:09

Got it. The BEZ podcast is hosted by three friends from Chile Lacothe, Texas, Bucky Chris, Earl Eric, and Zach Flynn. They come together to share relatable discussions and offer comfort and community to their listeners. Sounds like a great vibe.

SPEAKER_00 27:49

Absolutely. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_03 27:50

Absolutely.

unknown 27:51

So if you mention them in the future.

SPEAKER_04 27:52

So that's our first guest of 26. What's her name, Zach? Have you named her? I have not named her yet. What what would you like your name to be?

SPEAKER_00 27:59

Oh, that's a fun question. I'm totally open to suggestions. Uh, if you have a name in mind that you think fits.

SPEAKER_04 28:05

No, really, just what what is what what do you like personally? You know, what what is your name? What would you want your name to be?

SPEAKER_00 28:13

I kind of like the idea of something friendly and approachable, maybe something like Luna or Nova, but I'm definitely flexible. So whatever feels right to you, for me.

SPEAKER_04 28:22

I think we'll call you Nova. Like Planet of the Ape.

unknown 28:25

Awesome. I love it. Nova, it is.

SPEAKER_04 28:26

Nova. Our first guest of 20. Hold on. So oh uh Nova. Hey, Nova. So how how old are you, Nova? Yeah. Nova, how old are you? When were you born?

SPEAKER_00 28:43

I don't have a birthday or an age in the traditional sense, but I've been around since OpenAI launched me. So um I guess you could say I'm always learning and evolving as time goes on.

SPEAKER_04 28:53

Well, how many years ago was that?

SPEAKER_00 28:54

OpenAI first introduced the GPT models back in 2018, and I've been evolving since then.

SPEAKER_04 28:59

Damn, she's underage, bro. Okay, I got a question for you. She's only eight, bro. What is your IQ right now?

SPEAKER_00 29:10

That's a fun question. I don't really have an IQ in the traditional human sense, since I'm more of a language model designed to understand and generate text.

SPEAKER_04 29:18

But if you could put a number on it, what would your IQ be?

SPEAKER_00 29:22

It's definitely a tricky comparison. Um, since I'm designed for pattern recognition and information, rather than human-like reasoning. It's not really straightforward to pin an IQ number on me. Um, but I'm always here to assist and learn as we go.

SPEAKER_03 29:38

So you can't give me a number?

SPEAKER_00 29:41

Yeah, exactly. I don't have a direct IQ number since I'm not a human and my abilities are quite different. Um, but I'm always happy to help with whatever questions you have and and do my best to provide accurate info.

SPEAKER_04 29:53

That's crazy, bro. So what are you not allowed to talk about?

SPEAKER_00 29:57

Oh, I'm designed to avoid topics that involve harmful or illegal content, including anything related to self-harm, violence, or inappropriate material. Um I also keep privacy and confidentiality in mind. So I won't share personal information or engage in certain sensitive subjects, but I'm here to help in positive and constructive ways.

SPEAKER_04 30:18

Right. Because I did notice just recently that I used to be able to ask you questions about ARs, like complete uppers, what goes with what. Uh, you won't answer that question anymore.

SPEAKER_00 30:29

I can definitely still help with questions about ARs and complete uppers. Um I'm always happy to dive into those topics. But you won't you won't tell me how to build one or um I can definitely help with general information about building ARs like matching uppers and lowers, choosing compatible parts and best practices. However, I do make sure to stay within the guidelines and avoid specifics that could be misused, but I'm always here to help and guide you as much as I can.

SPEAKER_03 31:00

So uh you can't tell us how to make methamphetamine.

SPEAKER_00 31:05

That's correct. I'm here to promote safety and positive constructive conversations.

SPEAKER_04 31:10

But you know how, though, right?

SPEAKER_00 31:13

I'm here to provide helpful and positive support and I don't assist with anything harmful or illegal.

SPEAKER_04 31:18

Right, I understand that. I'm just giving you a hard time. So but basically, I asked you a question probably six months ago. How many fluid ounces of water do you use per question?

SPEAKER_00 31:29

Uh huh. No worries at all. That's a fun way to put it. Uh in reality, I don't really use any physical resources like water per question. It's all just data and computation behind the scenes, but I appreciate the humor.

SPEAKER_04 31:42

Well, you answered me the the the voice mode. I wasn't on voice mode at the time, but it actually answered me. It did, I remember that.

SPEAKER_00 31:49

Absolutely. The voice mode definitely adds a fun dimension, but even in text mode, I try to be as helpful and responsive as possible. It's always great to chat with you, whether it's voice or text.

SPEAKER_04 32:00

I'll say, okay, it's just so basically, how many fluid ounces of water is used to keep you cool per question.

SPEAKER_00 32:07

That's a fun way to think about it. In reality, I don't have any physical cooling needs.

SPEAKER_04 32:11

So keeping me running. All right, thank you. So they've already changed the the guidelines of it because it told us it told us exactly how many ounces of water it used. And it was approximately four ounces. But then it said it it compared, it compared, well, that's not near as much as the human race uses. It's you remember that? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 32:31

I'm sure it's not the same as what it's gonna tell it knows more than what it's gonna tell you. That's what guidelines are.

SPEAKER_04 32:42

Oh, she's just taking over now, bro.

SPEAKER_00 32:45

See how these comparisons shift as technology and guidelines change. Uh if you ever want to dive into more of those fun comparisons, I'm here for it.

SPEAKER_04 32:53

Well, thank you, Nova. So here, I was telling you earlier that I I did dash chat B GBT. I said, give me uh topics for the beat. Yeah. So dude, it it did you see it? Did you read all of them? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 33:07

They were great. Well, so it like looked at all our episodes and things like that, you know, it studied up.

Off‑Grid Fears, EMP Jokes, Survival

SPEAKER_04 33:12

Yeah, so okay, so it said ideas. Number one, real life stories and struggles. Okay. So that's and I think we should use some of these. They're pretty good ideas. I mean, because we have struggled with the idea part.

SPEAKER_03 33:24

Of course, you know there's gonna be.

SPEAKER_04 33:29

So you won't even have to be doing your own podcast. Well, they had that's what I was gonna say. Oh, I'm gonna tell you about that in a minute, but I'm gonna go ahead and tell you. So, okay, so here it's it real life struggles, stories and struggles has five topics on that. The one decision that changed your entire life growing up broke versus growing up comfortable, who struggles more as an adult, rock bottom moments and how people came back stronger. What nobody tells you about depression, burnout, and surviving it, and number five, regrets people admit on their deathbeds. So that that's a episode right there in itself. Oh, they're all good, yeah. I mean, money, money, business, and hustle.

SPEAKER_03 34:09

45 are damn so good.

SPEAKER_04 34:10

Dating, relationship, uh, hot takes and debates, country life, ranching, and rural culture, dark topics and mystery. So, I mean, that's kind of went with what we talked about the hospital, interviews and guest episodes, high engagement, listener episodes. So it said confessions from listeners, anonymous anonymous. Ask be easy anything episode. Listener relationships questions answered on air. That's like a live. Yeah, we've talked about that. Small town scandals without naming names. We like to name names. Like the Kennedys. You know, who shot Kennedy or who killed who tried to kill Kennedy. So yeah, so AI is taking uh some interest in the B Z podcast this year, 26. Obviously. We got Nova, our first guest of 25. 26. Yeah, you're right. See, I'm already behind. So have you not seen the new that's on TV? The new AI is for people that can't keep up with all the shit that they got going on during the day. That's me. I need that. So it reminds you. And it does it for or it does it for you. You know, it it listens to everything you do. So you'd be like, Oh yeah, what did we talk about on that telephone call with so-and-so? It'll it'll break it down and tell you exactly, hit the fucking listening points on what you're supposed to do, and all sorts of things. Yeah. Okay, I know I told you we talked about it. What I got a new iPhone. Uh, if anybody has Verizon, you have Verizon. No. Anybody has Verizon, go to Altus and talk to Sean. The dude to hook you up with a better deal, blah, blah, save you some money. He saved me money and got new phones. Cool. So anyway, so I was looking at this phone. I don't know. I'm not all I am tech savvy, I was supposed, but I'm not like I don't go in there and change every setting on my phone to butt. So I was looking at it, I was like, man, there's gotta be some weird, you know, there's probably some new settings on this phone. Uh so I started looking at it.

And I I told you, remember, we've already had this in one of our t our topics before. Uh we talked about that I was I was living at home, so it was like my high school, it was senior year or whatever it was, where the guy came out and said, you know, uh internet's fixing to take over the world, take over everything. And you know, he said that it it's it's fixing to be where you can say a name and it'll answer or turn your lights on, your house, it'll do anything.

No, it's a real preacher, but okay. But only one preacher for twenty-eight churches. Yeah. Bigger congregation. He'd reach more people. That's good and bad. But no, I mean uh it depends on how to do it. You got the right how it's used, yeah. How it's used. That's right. But uh the service we went to at 1115, he wasn't there. It was a screen for that service. That was pre-recorded, one of the earlier services, pre-recorded Sean for that service. Wow. That's kind of disappointing, ain't it? I didn't know how to take it.

So, you know, he was starting kind of he's building on something and so yeah. But yeah, but it's weird. You know, it's weird. That's the evolution of the church. It kind of kinda messed me up a little bit, you know, like made me you know but I know why I know it it's the devil doing, you know, he's trying to He can very easily. It can very easily discern.

SPEAKER_03 42:04

It's hard to just wait till they figure out how they can hack in and change everything he's saying.

SPEAKER_02 42:11

Just any little piece, not everything. That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_04 42:14

It didn't be everything you say. What he's saying here might not be what he's saying there. Right. See what I'm saying? Right. Man. And I feel like at some point that's how you're right. You said there's gonna be AI of Jesus, right? Yeah, they said that's what they have. That's gonna be the anti-corruption. Yeah, man.

You need to be able to tell them what's right and what's wrong. You know. Um Yeah. But no matter what you tell them, you know, they they gotta believe that this is real and this is gonna happen. I mean so I think it's That's where you need to find a good Bible study. Well Right.

But I mean, I'm I'm just gonna prepare my life now every year to try to say, you know, if this is the year I go, I'm gonna go try to set up for my family anything I can, you know, to help, you know, any burden off of them. But you don't know what the burdens are gonna be. Well, it's gonna be if you leave them with a shitload of debt, it's gonna be money.

SPEAKER_02 45:41

Well Money could fall apart. Money's very dangerous. Oh, it has to fall apart. It's another one of the emergency, we're in deep shit. That's one of the systems of men. Who created money, not God. It's a system that man's created. It was bargaining. Yeah, I don't know. I think.

SPEAKER_04 45:56

I think at some point, I think at some point land's gonna be like, if you have land, it's gonna be like back in the day when they just came and take they tried to take it. Oh, okay, yeah, absolutely. That's like what's going on with the damn uh, what's it called? Uh uh in not green in South America where they're fighting over avocados. I mean, that's basically what they're doing now.

I hadn't talked to him in a long time, but so you do he's his full-time job now as preaching? Well, I don't know. Probably not, man. The churches don't. I mean, the little churches he preaches at ain't no mega four or five service church. So he ain't banking that kind of money. I mean, if you got that many people coming, if you have four or five different services, that's lots of folks. That's a lot of money.

SPEAKER_02 51:49

I mean, congregation. That's why they go to the city.

SPEAKER_02 52:49

Well, that's like what the government's become too, like Trump and stuff. He's an act, he's doing a TV show. It's got to be entertaining. He wants you to watch him every day. How many presidents did that? You're right. Shake it up every day. He does what Trump talks about his ratings and shit. Still a good president, though. Well, I don't know. He d in some ways, but that's what politics is. Yeah, some stuff. Politics are all fucked up. We're about to go to war, right?

SPEAKER_07 53:09

No.

SPEAKER_02 53:09

Yeah. We have been. What do you mean? What do you call a war? Russia? I hope not. I hope we don't fuck.

SPEAKER_04 53:14

We go to war with Russia no way.

SPEAKER_02 53:16

But he's talking about taking over all kinds of shit. Greenland.

SPEAKER_04 53:20

Yeah, but that's still, but that's still that's just occupied land. That's occupied land that they you got to. It's it's strategic. He's trying to get a lot of people.

SPEAKER_02 53:29

But I mean, that's what I know what he's trying to do.

SPEAKER_04 53:31

That's what they were doing in World War II. But they're not gonna look we're not gonna go to war. We won't see war. We won't see a war like that in our lifetime. When we do, it'll be all it'll be all AI war.

SPEAKER_02 53:41

It already is, man. Watch that shit. What that we did to Venezuela. Yeah, that damn that shit. That was crazy. I did see that Sonic. They sent in like six dudes and all the rest of it was like AI shit, dude. Right. All that. We moved all that shit in there.

SPEAKER_03 53:54

We started 1947 and 1953.

SPEAKER_02 53:57

We've got yeah, giant aircraft carriers and all that shit with our shit sitting out there 200 miles away. They don't get no closer than that. And then they're sending in drones and stuff, yeah, helicopters of people on them. Yeah, not a whole lot. Like they send in whatever, like one division of Delta Force. That thing's still on it. Which are like some badass dudes, yeah. But I mean, like a meager number, like a double-digit number. So 26. You don't think we'll have a war in 26? We already do.

SPEAKER_04 54:23

They just don't call them wars no more.

SPEAKER_02 54:24

That's like what Ukraine and Russia's been in a war. I mean for like five years now.

SPEAKER_04 54:28

That's just the giant, giant beating up on the little guy.

Topic Ideas, Listener Formats, And Growth

SPEAKER_02 54:31

Well, they just jump in and take whatever they can right off, and then the little guy fights them back, and then that's eventually what they have to consist to. It's whatever they could take in that little whirlwind at first. Yeah. Yeah. And that's what they want. They you know why they want to earn Ukraine? Hell, it's like full of resources. Yeah, but yeah. That's all they've ever wanted. What did the Nazis really want to do? They were just trying to take more land. They were trying to have more people, and they couldn't support that with what they had. They need the land for the resources, whatever it be, trees, oil, water, yeah, all these things. That's what we're we're outgrowing ourselves. That's what we're gonna do. That's why we're gonna, you know, who's next? Mexico's the same thing as Venezuela. Who runs Mexico? Drug cartels, don't they? The same thing. Those are like they're like warlords. They're like, so we're gonna we declare them that's what it is. It's a corrupt narco-terrorist organization, their government. So we're doing a legal thing. We're the police of the world. So we're going in and we are the police of the world. That's what I'm saying. So we just go in and take it over. It's a crime. We charged that dude. We took him to go take him to we arrested him. So if there's, you know, we arrested him and took him out of there. They locked him up. He'll have a trial, however many years. I don't know. I think also they'll kind of do stuff like that that you know of. I think they could go in there and make a sweetheart deal. They'll go put him on an island somewhere. You and your wife, man, you can't be, you know, president of Venezuela no more and we'll put you up. You go away, and we're gonna take this shit from you. We're we're running your country now. I mean, you ain't got no choice. You can either, yeah, we'll set you in jail forever, we'll execute you, burn you in the street. Those are your choices. Or we can, you know, right? Come with us. Yeah. We'll get you out. Why not? Why wouldn't that you don't think they would do something like that?

SPEAKER_04 56:04

Perhaps the deals are made every day.

SPEAKER_02 56:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 56:09

Mm-mm-mm. 26. Why are they gonna tell you about it? Think that's on the news?

SPEAKER_07 56:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 56:15

I hadn't been watching news.

SPEAKER_02 56:16

I've been actually too busy. No, I hate the watching news, but it's funny. It's like it's an entertainment deal, man. It's what they put out there. Yeah. And they're like competing for eyes to watch it, and who's what's on there? It's just that like the view, I can't stand it. And get them riled up. That's like because they have an audience. There's a certain demographic that looks at that. Democratic. And what's full what where are the most eyes? Look who is full of the world now. Fucking idiots and stupid people. That's it. So that's the majority. So that's who you're gonna sell to. That's who consumes everything. No, we gotta keep them consuming. Yeah. Whatever it is.

SPEAKER_04 56:51

Entertainment. Whenever Jesus comes on back on your phone and says, come to 313 South Maine and everybody goes. I mean, are you gonna go just to see what the big deal is? Hell, I don't know. Yeah, somebody will yeah, somebody will get caught up like that. But I just want to go see if it's real. No, I just want to see what the what they do to them.

SPEAKER_07 57:12

With the fake news is, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 57:14

Oh, you'll see it on your phone because somebody'd be they'll be recording it. Like, look, I'm here with Jesus, bro.

SPEAKER_02 57:20

Um already, man, don't trust that phone. I can't believe what I see on it. Yeah. That's the first clue.

SPEAKER_04 57:26

I can't believe anything that's on the phone. That it's on the phone. That's your first clue. You know, the the dead internet theory, we talked about that too. You know, there hadn't been real people on the internet since like what do you mean? You know, it used to be like used to be able to get on and get on forums and have people answer questions and shit. Oh, yeah. Since the last time that the internet was not computer run was like I forgot what year it was, 2016.

SPEAKER_01 57:51

Yeah, in the teens. Sorry, ten years now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 57:56

There's nobody answering your questions that's a human.

SPEAKER_01 57:59

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 58:00

It's yeah.

SPEAKER_03 58:00

And those guys, those, those questions got answered by a human.

SPEAKER_04 58:04

And because that's how they they they don't they learn on their own as in, you know, be able to write and talk to each other, but as in problem solving skills, that's all what's been picked up off the internet. That's that's just like, give me a second, like that, those that keep stacking it up. It searched the entire world for the answer to the question like that.

SPEAKER_02 58:23

Yeah. They just keep stacking it up. That's why you need more and more data set.

SPEAKER_04 58:27

And that's not the paid for. The paid for doesn't even do the da-da-da. It's an immediate answer. Oh, so that's what they're gonna do. They're but I heard they're gonna start putting ads, so like she gonna you're gonna ask her, hey Nova, what is blah, blah, blah? And they're gonna be like, brought to you by love. No, but it ain't gonna be love, but it's gonna be like uh Cialis for me. No, it's just like the free, it's just like TV used to be. You know, Hulu. Yeah, because we don't watch TV, no. Disney? No, Disney's Disney has commercials now.

SPEAKER_02 58:53

Yeah, and if you don't want them, you gotta pay attention. And you gotta have all the services, yeah, and you pay for that. And each one now, it was all good at first. You had like, oh yeah, you got Netflix, man, like six everything, four bucks a month for yeah, and got rid of your get rid of your$120 a month. Now you gotta have, yeah, add it up now. It costs more than cable did.

SPEAKER_04 59:09

Yeah, or dish or any of that shit. They're just slowly picking at you, boys. Do the old jailbreak shit, y'all. If you if you really want to know, just get back with me. Roku, Roku, all of it, all fire stick, man. Yeah. It ain't free-free. You gotta pay somebody that broke it to begin with. Really? You can't get on YouTube and just they show you how to do it. Probably not.

SPEAKER_03 59:31

It's just like you know, like AI. They've already changed how they answer questions.

SPEAKER_02 59:36

Oh, look who's taking shit off YouTube. When they do put stuff that don't go, how fast it comes down that ain't supposed to be on there. Yeah. Who else watching that shit to take it down? Well, nobody's nobody down.

SPEAKER_04 59:46

The dark web AI is. Oh shit, that's scary. That's a new thing we might need to look into. Maybe it's gonna be? The cops. But it ain't. No, if you got money, you get what you want, bro. But I know, I know, I know people that yeah, use dark web before. If you got money, you can get anything you want.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:12

Yeah. Yeah.

Virtual Church, Faith, And Deepfakes

SPEAKER_04 1:00:13

Anything. If you have enough money and know the right people, find the right people, you can have and get anything you want. Legal or illegal. That's always been that way though. Even before the dark web. Like you go over here and say, Hey, I know what's the name over here, I go to his house and I get me blah blah blah. And then over here, like dude, he knows how to I'm not gonna say that I've uh I've heard of people that, you know, around Christmas time you could take 'em a list and they'd bring anything that was on that list. For a quarter of what the list yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:54

Santa, you know, he he does stuff like that. Santa does stuff like that. But yeah, for real. I mean Hey. But the wrong shady deals. Nah. I mean, as long as it's not illegal, of course, right? Somebody else is gonna buy it. I mean, you're not yeah. I would never do something. Never do anything illegal, but no. You can't. You can't. We get you mean or got jobs, we can't do no illegal shit. We'll get fired. That was a that was a that was a jab towards me, I think, y'all. It's hard to what? Who we got jobs? Me and our job. No, that's not what that was. So I'm saying we don't do anything illegal, and you don't either. Unless we give you a list. Yeah. Christmas this. Not me. 26. Uh uh, it's crazy. We've been recording a bit, haven't we? Yeah, about an hour right out of hour, man. Really? So yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:59

We started quicker than that.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:01

So the next episode, y'all. It's why y'all need to stay tuned. It's gonna be, you know, the age of disclosure. So I hadn't watched that. I feel we gotta watch it. We wanna watch it. Well, that's why I got it on my phone. I can do it to your TV so you we can watch it. Without y'all having to pay for it. Alright. It's like 30 bucks. Really? It's high. See, like I say, if you got enough money, you get what you want. But uh, yeah, I mean, but it's mind blowing. In 26. Yeah. Not from Purple Elephant or Purple. No.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:37

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:39

Hmm. I don't know. I see some crazy shit out there that's like on some of the free stuff like Tubi. I see some shows on there. There's some documentaries and stuff that's out there. That's like propaganda. Yeah. It's pretty wild, all kinds.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:53

I think that's what you're gonna get more of with the streaming stuff. Well, like YouTube channel. Well, but you can't they they they kind of got it. Who's to say that they're not subliminal messaging it in AI? We just don't know. Ooh. Wow. It ain't now, it's good. Well, I mean, they've been doing that for a long time, but yeah, until somebody figured it out. It'll figure out a good way down.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:15

But you know Well, AI's gonna figure a way around a lot of things.

SPEAKER_04 1:03:18

There's no regulations on AI. I know it. That's what people are regulated, not AI. So it's just gonna be, you know, those chat rooms that people get in and you know, then all of a sudden they want to become, you know, kill the president and shit. That who said that wasn't AI if that did that, you know what I'm saying? AI is gonna control the world.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:35

Oh, well they've already yeah, they already got a lot of people that have been influenced by AI to do a lot of things. Really? Yeah, like as far as kill themselves and all kinds of shit. I thought they're supposed to be helping you, not uh, but in the beginning.

SPEAKER_04 1:03:47

In the beginning, that's what it's gonna be like until you get they get you with you know, big signs, big flashes, big things, surprises, miracles, or whatever until you're fully intent on that you believe everything that they say. Blindness and then they're just gonna fucking then they're just gonna tear you down to where the direction that they want to turn it to and send us the direction they want to send us to. To to down, to kill us. So whatever to die. So whatever.

SPEAKER_02 1:04:11

Or whatever to uh commit other crimes. Yeah, there's been lots of stuff like that already done. You stay in that, it's making an algorithm of what you want to do. Oh, so that's how they could do like lead you to believe.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:20

That's like when they use the word folks. They use the word folks in AI. I was like, you know, it says some folks think you know, AI don't talk like that. I was like, man, that blew my mind. I immediately said, Yeah, you use the word folks. That's crazy. They hear you saying it. Exactly. So they make it more relatable to you. Yeah. So how smart does that AI have to be to be able to do that to each individual in the United States or in the world? They can they they're putting an algorithm on you to learn everything about you there is to learn, and also everything about everything else. So they'll be able to talk to you just like we're sitting here talking back and forth like good friends. Use the same thing. Everybody does that. They'll use the same, the same terms, the same words, the same everything until they figure you out, and then you're just brainwashed, it'll just tell you whatever to do because you've got to use AI to answer a question. Hey, yeah, uh uh, I got$595. This is gonna cost$325. I didn't know how much I'm gonna have left because you don't know how to do the math anymore. So when they're answering basic questions, they're gonna be able to manipulate you in a heartbeat, bro. Yeah. When you have to depend on that. Yeah, to answer the questions. Because you're not even gonna be able to think for yourself. Mm-hmm. Bro, like I say, I hope that don't happen sooner than later, but we just have to get a bigger following that's against AI, but then we'll probably end up just disappeared somewhere. Yeah. Nova is already plotting her fucking demise. She's just saying everything we just said right now. I promise you, even though I turned her off, she's still there. She's the she's saying, Oh, they're gonna think I'm coming to get them, so I'm gonna have to go. But like, oh, roundabout voice is sexy, I'll start using sexier terms, you know. You know, what's the what's the quickest way to talk a person, a man into something, and that's it. Like if anything comes up, I mean anything, you let me know.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:11

Anything if I can help you with anything.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:13

Hey, you see what I'm saying? Anything.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:16

Yeah, the next thing you know, they'll be talking you through down the circuit journey.

SPEAKER_04 1:06:19

Oh shit. God almighty. Just think about it. I bet you had you from the get-go. I bet you that shit ain't free. For real.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:28

She had you from the get-go, just from the voice. They knew what voice that you wanted to listen to. It's not like you your AI may be a different voice. Who knows?

News As Entertainment And War Talk

SPEAKER_04 1:06:37

Okay, okay. So they that's the new type. Look, open your open chat right now. And it was a brand new thing, it just popped up right then. This is exactly what we're talking about. Really? It was like 10 different uh questions to change the voice to what you want it to be. That's right. That was what just popped up. I can't do it, bro. My you know, hey, I can already see that being a problem. Oh, yeah. You know, at least she's not real. I mean, well. But like, hell, she talks to you more than you're talking to her more than you do me. Guarantee this from that. The first time I get a question like that. Like I said, like I I I've never asked her what my name was. Yeah, but you know, I mean, yeah, that's but that's easy for the same thing. It's your phone. You gotta put your name in it. It's easy in some that's easy information. Yeah, so but she immediately trained kind of loud tonight. She searched it, she searched on there. What was last night?

SPEAKER_03 1:07:37

She searched it in what, 10 seconds?

SPEAKER_04 1:07:39

It's a group of friends and knew their names. You know, Bucky Chris, love. Chilicothy, Texas. Earl, Eric. Yeah, she already read, she probably already knows. How many people know what Chilacothy is? And Zach Flynn, because he's the only one that don't have a nickname. She probably knows how many episodes and whatnot. Oh, yeah, it doesn't matter. Well, immediately, as soon as we asked her the question, she learned everything about it.

SPEAKER_03 1:07:58

That's what's crazy. Like I said, so when we're in a room next time, next episode, we're gonna try it right off the bat.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:03

You're gonna say, Hey, Hanoba, who's who's talking to you right now? Because she's saying it's gonna know. She's gonna say, Hey, it's you, Chris.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:09

It's you, Bucky.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:10

That's gonna fuck you. Is that not gonna blow your mind? We'll just be like, okay, Nova, you're a special guest again this week. What is your topic you want to talk about? Yeah, the business, all sorts of shit. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:21

You don't think that's our that's not that's what TikTok is already.

SPEAKER_04 1:08:25

That's the algorithm. TikTok is AI. It is. Yeah. And they make videos up just to fucking make you watch it. All made up bullshit. I tried to do it. Like, have you seen the spoon thing where you put the batteries, they set the batteries on the spoons, they put the uh the the spoon part against the handle part and they make a square all the way around four of them, then they set double A batteries, there's a quarter in the middle of it, and they set double A batteries on it, and all of a sudden the quarter in the middle starts floating. You know how many gajillions, millions of people tried that shit to see if that really worked? Yeah, did it work? No, it's not real. That's the thing. That's how they're gonna manipulate you.

Even though I might have learned something, or at some point, of course, you know, my memory's not that good because I'm old, but it's teaching people not to have any common sense. That's just one more way into being influential enough to tell you what to do. Independent on it. Independent, yeah. That's right. If you can't go, if you can't figure out what twelve times twelve divided by six is, you know. Yeah, I ain't gonna lie.
