Speaker 1 (00:00):
The audio clip is less than sixty seconds long enough
to completely upend a Baltimore area high school. In it,
a voice is heard making racist remarks about black students,
academic performance, and anti Semitic complaints about Jewish community members. Parents, teachers,
and students believed it was a racist rant by Pikesville

(00:20):
High School Principal Eric Eyswert, but officials revealed that voice
was generated by AI, and they've arrested the school's athletic director,
thirty one year old days On Darien, for allegedly creating it.

Detectives alleged mister Darien made the recording to retaliate against
the principal, who had launched an investigation into the potential
mishandling of school funds.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Police Adarian was arrested while trying to board a flight
to Houston. Initially taken into custody for a gun in
his bag when police discovered the outstanding warrant. He's now
charged with disrupting school operations, along with theft, retaliating against
the witness, and stalking. The clip was first circulated back
in January. At the time, the principal denied ever making

(01:07):
those remarks. Officials say the clip had quote profound repercussions,
leading to the principal's temporary removal from the school.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
I'm sure did you heard the principal's voice saying all
kinds of racist stuff? Yeah, you got to investigate that.
But this is the first of one million times this
is gonna happen. And as I've been saying now for
several years, it's also going to cover for the people
who did say these things.

as it turns out, Wow, you're right, Yeah, this is
this is the first of one to eight million that

(01:54):
you will hear in your lifespan. Unbelievable, including us. I'm
just waiting for somebody who hates us, some activist group,
to try to run us out of the business by
concocting something like this. Speaking of AI and how scary
it is commercial art, ninety five percent of jobs are
about to disappear. For instance, loyal listener Kelly took about
five seconds to craft this using an AI music creator.

(02:17):
It's a forties pop krooner style song, praising Michaelangelo, our
technical director.

Speaker 5 (02:24):
He's the pretty behind the shining show. I'm strong and daddy.
They all do no it beats and tunes, he SAIDs
the tone, the master architect, call him their cornerstone in

(02:46):
the corner stone.

Times Perfect.

you're a studio musician. Get ready to call up door
Dash and get the app because they're gonna need it.
And I'm laughing out of just like shock, amazement and fear.

(03:50):
I'm not laughing at anybody. It's unbelievable. No, I have
fear for my own children. I have no idea what
kind of work world they're going to head out into.
