We get it, AI is everywhere. It writes, it draws, it can even flirt (kinda). But while we’re busy asking it to plan our lives and finish our sentences, maybe it’s time we ask a juicier question: Should we be worried?
In this episode, we’re unpacking the ethical mess behind the AI obsession—from creepy surveillance vibes to built-in bias and the slow death of human creativity. We also discuss the recently filed lawsuit where a 16 year old committed suicide which his parents contend was aided by ChatGPT.
If you’ve ever side-eyed your phone after a “coincidental” ad or felt uneasy about how much tech knows about you—this one’s for you. Tune in, spill the tea, and let’s get real about the price of all this artificial “intelligence.”
