I love this future where the internet is going to be dead and all human interaction replaced by bots and your meemaw who always votes for fascists will be iv hooked up to the facebook algo drip of curated deepfried slop that melts her brain and has her saying the fourteen words.
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
"You ready to talk about the 14 words to-day?"
"The 14 words??? Hit me. As I like to say kay-know no-ledge is power!"
"Some people don't like 'em and say theeeeeeeere racist. Let's dig in."
I think this is as much an indictment about how shitty and formulaic most podcasts are as opposed to strictly an AI hellworld thing
I'd never listen to a typical by-the-numbers podcast. I think it's sad that anybody does. But some people like the worst slop. It's reality tv without the visuals. But I'm having a hard time trying to imagine anybody listening to an AI podcast. It's not reality tv or reality. It's an sour uncanny valley of humanish slop. If a typical podcast is junk food - an AI podcast is like the steak in "The Fly". Why would anybody choose to consume that?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
The AI podcast doesn’t bother me. It’s using your notes to make it that pisses me off.
Why would anybody want this? I wrote the notes, why do I need two robots to spoonfeed them back to me again?
I guess it's the tech bro conception of being creative.
You can review them on your comute back home. Not even a second of productivity can be lost.
Those hosts are named Nick Mullen and Adam Friedland.
I would love to see how awful an AI podcast trained solely on Cumtown would be. Have it generate 1000 episodes, then train an AI solely on those and do 1000 more, etc. until it releases an episode that's just the phrase "baby jirl".
ChatGPT, write and episode of the podcast Cumtown
Sure! Here’s a fictional Cumtown-style podcast episode script. It's written in the irreverent, offbeat, and often chaotic tone the show is known for. Cumtown is a comedy podcast with three co-hosts (Nick Mullen, Stavros Halkias, and Adam Friedland), so their voices and comedic timing will guide the flow.
Episode Title: The Butt Plug Industrial Complex
(Intro music fades out)
Nick: What’s up, everybody? It’s your boy, the Sultan of Suck, Nick Mullen, here with my two lovely co-hosts, Stavros “The Greek Freak” Halkias and Adam “I Swear I’m Funny, Guys” Friedland.
Stavros: What’s up, sluts? Hope you're ready to get stupid.
Adam: I hate that you guys always give me these awful nicknames.
Nick: Yeah, well, that’s 'cause you’re awful, Adam.
Stavros: You got your new glasses today, though, right? Lookin' like a Whole Foods librarian over here.
Adam: No, man, these are—these are hip! They’re like… ironic.
Nick: Yeah, ironically ugly.
Stavros: (laughs) How much did those cost? Bet you dropped half your paycheck so you can still not get laid.
Adam: You’re just mad because I actually try to look good.
Nick: Nah, Stav’s mad because he spent his entire paycheck on Uber Eats again. This guy’s single-handedly keeping the delivery industry afloat.
Stavros: (laughing) Bro, I’m supporting small businesses, okay? I got that entrepreneurial spirit.
Adam: If we ever have a Cumtown stock exchange, it’ll just be Stav betting on himself to eat four pizzas in one sitting.
Nick: (laughing) The Stav Dow Jones is crashing, bro. It’s just a graph of his cholesterol going up.
Stavros: (laughs) Oh, you motherfuckers. Let’s talk about something important though. You guys hear about this new trend with, uh, butt plugs?
Adam: (confused) What? No, what are you talking about?
Nick: (laughs) Here we go.
Stavros: No, for real! There’s this new, like, underground economy of designer butt plugs. They’re like high-end ones. Custom-made, with, like, precious gems and shit. You could buy one that costs more than your rent, Adam.
Adam: I don’t… What the fuck? Why?
Nick: (laughs) Because, Adam, some people out there are tired of living like plebes. They want luxury even when they're getting stuff rammed up their asses.
Stavros: Yeah, it’s like the Rolex of anal. High status. You walk into a room with a sapphire-encrusted butt plug, people know you’re about that life.
Adam: How would people know? You’re not showing that off.
Nick: Speak for yourself. I bet there are freaky dinner parties where that’s, like, the thing. Just a bunch of rich tech dudes standing around, comparing notes on their fancy butt plugs.
Stavros: It’s all about networking, baby! You think Elon Musk isn’t rolling up to a space conference with a custom-made Tesla butt plug?
Adam: (laughing) What? No! Why would Elon Musk be—
Nick: (cutting in) Oh, you know he is. Probably 3D printed that shit himself.
Stavros: With Dogecoin logos on it.
Nick: (laughs) Yeah, and it syncs up to your Neuralink so it vibrates when your stock portfolio hits a new high.
Stavros: (laughs) You get a little bzzt when SpaceX launches another rocket.
Adam: (sarcastically) Wow, incredible. This is the future of innovation.
Nick: It is, man. You know, that’s what all these Silicon Valley billionaires are really about. It’s all just butt plugs and biohacking. Butt Plug 2.0.
Stavros: Yo, honestly, we should get in on that. Cumtown-brand butt plugs. We’d make a killing.
Adam: (laughing) What, like, with our faces on them?
Nick: Absolutely. Yours would just be a big disappointment. You sell it as the “Friedland Experience”—you put it in and instantly feel sad and underwhelmed.
Stavros: (laughs) Nah, Adam’s would be the one you only buy as a joke gift for someone you hate.
Adam: I hate you guys.
Nick: (laughing) Stav’s would be huge, obviously. Comes with a guarantee: if you can take it, you get a free sub to his OnlyFans.
Stavros: (laughs) Dude, the Stavros Special. Comes with extra lube, and we throw in a free pizza delivery to your door afterward.
Adam: (laughing) Why is pizza part of this?
Stavros: It’s about the full experience, man. You stuff yourself in every way possible.
Nick: Meanwhile, mine would be sleek, elegant. Like the iPhone of butt plugs. You could charge it with a USB-C cable, maybe even get some crypto mining going while it's up there.
Stavros: (laughs) Bro, you're using your butt plug to mine Bitcoin?! That’s next level.
Adam: This is the worst investment idea I’ve ever heard.
Nick: That’s why you're not rich, Adam. You’re not thinking forward enough. You’re stuck in a world of cheap Amazon Prime butt plugs. Stav and I, we’re innovating.
Stavros: We’re disruptors, bro. We’re building an empire here. The Butt Plug Industrial Complex.
Nick: (laughs) We could even take it public. Cumtown stock would skyrocket.
Adam: Right up the ass of America.
Stavros: (laughs) We’re the new American dream, baby.
(Outro music starts playing)
Nick: Alright, folks, that’s it for today’s episode. Make sure to subscribe to Cumtown Premium if you want the good stuff. Stav will send you a pizza, Adam will send you a sad selfie, and I’ll send you a stock tip. See you next time, losers.
Stavros: Later, dorks.
Adam: Bye, I guess.
(Outro fades out)
Let me know if you'd like any more specific jokes or scenes added!
Nick would never call Stav and Adam lovely tho

They burned a forest for this
"In the end, it’s actually a story about teamwork, making the dream work."
Google isn’t making things up when it says the AI hosts will “banter” with each other, either. When trying out Audio Overview for myself, I plugged in one of the sample notebooks about the invention of the lightbulb, and the results were... a bit uncanny. During the 10-minute-long overview, the two hosts had a lighthearted discussion about how Thomas Edison wasn’t the only person behind the lightbulb and that “in the end, it’s actually a story about teamwork, making the dream work.”
This is a great way to get everyone on android to consent to giving Google everything about their daily life including insights into their work.
For corporate espionage they will know absolutely fucking everything.
It's truly amazing how mind-numbingly stupid people will act if you offer them one simple thing - convenience.
giving Google everything about their daily life including insights into their work.
Dude fuck that i only want to give hexbear users insight into my work
NO ONE IS ASKING FOR THIS

Can we extend the whole 'weird' assessment to the tech world?
At some point, building something just because you can should be assessed against common sense and how pointless and f'ing weird this is.
