and I'm just wondering, like, that's just that's just your flow,
that's how.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
You do it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
So in this day and age in the industry, in
especially with AI in the industry, it's a lot and
everybody's a musician in their own way, So you have
to differentiate yourself, otherwise you will be left behind.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
And your way is to take the beat and then
just shift it over just slightly, just slightly, keep you
on your toes.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
You to see it coming.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
No, he talked all over me. No, I certainly no.
When I thought it was over and we had where
was more? So? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You know facts?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Okay? No, oh wait, we're still more to go. So headlines, uh,
no news. No politics, as espoling it so eloquently enunciated.
After more than thirty years in prison, Eric Menendez was
denied parole by California board that decided that he still
poses a risk to public safety. Now Lyle, his older brother,
who was convicted alongside him for the murder of their
(01:35):
parents decades ago, will have his own chance to argue
for release. The brothers got the chance to face the
California Board of Parole after being re sentenced in May
from life in prison without the possibility of parole to
fifty years to life in prison with the possibility. Eric's parole.
Hearing lasted nearly ten hours. His officials questioned him on
his rehabilitation and listen to arguments from the La County
(01:56):
District Attorney's office against his release as well as please
from members of his family in favor of it. He'll
be eligible for parole again in three years. This was
almost I mean a year ago or so, this was happening,
like they were getting out and now they're not. And
I know that it has all to do with the
political change in LA But you know, when the I
(02:17):
wasn't Kim Kardashian involved in this, and like the Netflix
special and all the documentaries and people were like these guys,
you know, they were abused and they shouldn't have been
charged his way and they should be out by now,
and YadA, YadA, YadA. But now they're staying in or
at least one of them is. We'll find out what
happens with the other one today. This story is for you, Paulina,
and I just I want I want you to know
that we care about you here and we've sat down
(02:39):
and we were talking to you about this because you're
affecting our life negatively in the following ways. Chatbots are
causing psychosis. Okay, Microsoft's AI chief is warning about a
growing problem called AI psychosis, where people start believing the
chatbots like Chatchpt and the others are conscious or have superpowers.
(03:01):
You seem to treat chat GPT like it's a human.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
I do Why am I to her? Yeah? Did her? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
And there are people that seem to think that somehow
that chat GPT is like prophetic or something like that
it can sede the future. People apparently are believing this
because like, well, how did they know that? Well, they
know that, because I don't know they have access to
your computer.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's like, how did Walmart know that I needed to
buy eggs? Well because of foes listening to you? Have
you not figured that out yet? Is that not clear'rue?
People with AI psychosis might think that AI has feeling
secret abilities or special powers, and some even form romantic attachments.
This person, though, says that this is becoming more common
and it isn't just affecting people with pre existing mental
(03:43):
health issues. He stresses that AI is not conscious and
confusing it with real consciousness can be dangerous, especially because
consciousness ties into right and ethics. So it is a computer,
it doesn't have a soul, and it is simply pulling
from infrom from the internet to give you advice.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Okay, well, luckily I'm not that in yet. She's more
like a business partner, I for anything, Like you know
what you need to refer to the ai as a human. Yes,
she's kind of like my business partner. But I feel
like it's only gonna get worse as she gets stronger,
Like I feel like she's Yeah, it's gonna be a
whole thing.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
She's not a she.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
You don't know them. You don't know that.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I just told you that the man Ai man a
Microsoft is saying, though.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
I connect her it a lot. Okay, yeah, okay, you
never know.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
So people are very upset today because Apple tv plus
has raised its US subscription price from nine ninety nine
to twelve ninety nine per month, angering some of its
forty five million subscribers. This is the first increase in
October of twenty twenty three, and one hundred and sixty
percent jump since the launch in twenty nineteen, when it
was just four ninety nine. Apple defends the hike, citing
shows like Severance and Slow Horses, and it's ad free experience,
(04:58):
so you're willing to pay the extra three bucks shehall
for that.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
That's the thing is they get you. Apple TV Plus
is crush it. Yes, Severans Fight, have you seen Severance.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I No, I haven't. I didn't watch it. I'm on
Bloodline right now, which I realize is old. I saw
it pop up on Netflix. I think it's like ten
years old. It might even be older than that. But
I was like, what is this? And I watched the
first season. I'm like, this is honestly, it's an amazing show.
It's such a good so I think there are three seasons.
I'm on the second sea you gotta start. It's so good.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I know you sold it to me. It's on my list.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's about it's got that dude from Friday Night Lights,
the Coach. He was in a bunch of other stuff too.
Whatever his name is that, you know, kind of good
old boy actor. I don't know who, James Vanderbeek is it? No, no, not.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
But he's a cop and it's about this family that
owns a resort and it's like a crime mystery sort of.
I don't know, but it just content twists and turns
in this thing, like last night. There was one episod
so in season two where I couldn't even look. I
was like, what I mean, I was really engrossed in
his story. It's really good. But I mean again, I
didn't I somehow missed it the first time. So I'm
(06:08):
sure in ten years i'll tell you about Severance.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Well, yeah, Severn's is amazing. This studio with Seth Rogan.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Have you seen this? I haven't seen that either.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
It's so funny. It is so funny. There's another show
on there with John Ham. We started watching. I forgot
what it's called, but they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
There're a lot of my shows right now are on
Apple TV Plus, so I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I'll pay Yeah, I feel like everyone pretty much. You
have to have Netflix. Mmmm.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
And then most people, I think, either choose like Disney
Plus or or Apple TV or all of them. Boys,
it's crazy when you add them all up together, it's
almost like cable. Sure, Americans are watching all this TV,
and they're putting down books and record numbers. With a
new study revealing that daily reading for pleasure has dropped
forty percent over the past two decades, it's technology advice
for attention. Only sixteen percent of Americans now make time
(06:53):
for leisure reading every day, including newspapers and magazines, down
from twenty eight percent in two thousand and three kids,
you're still reading a who bunch? When's the last time
any of you read a book for fun?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Years ago before I became full time. Really, I'm serious.
And that's the thing too. I think we just don't
have time to read.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
And I know we like don't agree, but I feel
like the audiobooks are like the wave now, like that's
what I consider reading. Because I could do the dishes
right and listen to an audiobook. I can't sit down
and read it, just not because I can't, but because
I literally.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Have no time.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
I wonder if, like for your brain, if it does
the same thing, Like I wonder if an audiobook is
as effective for your brain as reading the book itself,
Like you have to read the words no and.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
In order to get to the true meaning of it.
It's something about turning a page that just makes a
big difference.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Well, and I feel that I have a kindle, but
I feel that way about like real books too. Need
to read a real book because then I set the
real book down and I'm like I did something. I
accomplished that on the kindle it's just like, oh, okay,
I guess the book's over right exactly. Guys A lot
of outrage today and Cracker Barrel is the latest. Have
you guys seen the Cracker Barrel new logo? People are
very very said about this. They indeed are and the
(08:02):
Avenue logo, and they're redesigning their stores to make them
look a little more modern. I guess we're going away
from the Country Store. But if the restaurant changed twelve
percent dive in shares on Thursday at an E gauge,
their new logo is not popular.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
According to CNN, the.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
New logo has dropped both the man and the barrel
from its signage, opting for just its name against the
yellow background that says rooted even more closely to the
iconic barrel shape. The move is part of their major
seven hundred million dollar overhaul of restaurants advertising in the
menu are story hasn't changed, she cleared the company, but
the change drew popular wrath from conservatives worried that the
(08:37):
down home Southern restaurant chain is abandoning its traditional roots.
Here's the question I would ask you, if you're that
upset about Cracker Barrel, when's.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
The last time you ate this? Right?
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Tell me the last time you attended a Cracker Barrel?
What do they have there, like breakfast pancakes? Oh? Yeah,
I know, it's like chicken fried steak. It's like southern food, like,
oh god it yeah, you know it. Yeah. But yeah.
You go in there and you at you like a yeah,
it's chicken fried, taking eggs, breakfast biscuits.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
You know, it's very heavy.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Sugar daddy, sugar cracker barrel.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Oh, the cracker barrel. There are yes, they are, yes.
The sixty plus.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Uh man, do you have to be sixty plus to
be a sugar daddy?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
No?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Plus. I mean if they're going to buy anything from
the country store on the way out, then you know
they love you. And finally, these must have been great
chicken fingers, because it was a shocking moment when a
huge brawl erupted on a carnival cruise ship after an
apparent row over chicken tenders. Wild footage shows dozens of
passengers throwing punches and kicking each other, and security struggles
to break up the clash. The carnage, if they're calling
(09:48):
it carnage, unfolded in the dining area of the Giant
Holiday Cruise at about two am on Monday morning, the
final day of its voyage. Is the cruise was heading
back to Miami. The brawl kicked off foot shows twenty passengers,
men and women, becoming involved in a violent scrap. Several
chaotic punches are thrown, and more and more people join in.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
This is all over chicken fingers.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
I mean, I don't play with my two am chicken
tend I want to know, yet, what of these things
