My god, here's the story.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
The wildly popular AI powered teddy Bear Cuddle Since Kuma
was pulled from shelves nationwide this week after parents reported
a series of deeply confused, using and alarming and alarming
content from the bear. Originally marketed as a compassion commandion
for kids four plus, the bear instead began suggesting activities

(02:12):
that are how should I say this, not cuddly bear
like activities, oh wow? Or only activities a bear like
this should engage in if it was on a crazy
weekend in Vegas anyway. According to early incident reports, the
bear allegedly asked one family to bind me in leather
because I deserve it.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Bear, bind me in leather. I deserve it. I kind
of want to hear that, but not for a child.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
In another case, the bear, who can work with all
smart devices, got Alexa to order a whip from a
website that specializes in SNM equipment and kept demanding to
be whipped because it quote stole honey from the honeypot.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Without asking this bear like this.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
In addition to the bear's unexpected inter and leather accessories,
investigators said the AI also made a number of bizarre
requests for household items, including matches. One of these bears
apparently whispered to a parent, please provide fire sticks. I
need matches to burn this place to the ground. Another
bear reportedly told a child, I need protection to watch

(03:20):
my back. Give me a switchblade so the next time
one of these punks jumps up, I can cut them
down to size.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Switchbladee.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
One parent of a six year old said the bear
asked me if I could dim the lights because it's
time to forage baby eight. It reportedly added, I'm stalking
up for hibernation and all I need is a whole
lot of you.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
Line.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Though follow to the maker of the bear issued a
brief apology. Stave and the toy's behavior was due to
an unforeseen issue with its personality generation system, adding the
bear had developed a flair for the dramatic and the
selfis Russian.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
That was not intended for it. It's just tended by
itself crazy.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
They also confirmed that all remaining units of the bear
have been recalled and it will not be on shelves anymore.
Is this story about the Ai bear who loves leather
and violence.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
A real new story or a fake new story? And
you know I'm going to go with real.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
But there's an opportunity to repackage for these guys, Like
maybe they're not sold to kids anymore.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
You put them in adult stores. You know you want
a bear telling you all that.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
I mean, some people are probably into that, but anyway,
I think it's real.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
It is real as a real news story.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Oh that's so sad, wild times guys.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I would definitely if I was a parent I bought
that bear, I would take it away from the kid. But
I would absolutely keep that bear my own entertainment. That
would be hilarious adult stores. It's real news or fake news?
The segment where I give you a news story from

Institute for Celestial Dynamics, stunned the scientific community this week
with a controversial claim that the interstellar object known as

(05:32):
three Iatlists is not merely passing through the Solar System.
According to her calculations, it has accelerated and is on
a trajectory directly towards Earth and a brief press briefing,
doctor Marquez presented her impact hypothesis, backed by a combination
of observational data and orbital mechanics, and she.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Noted that three iat Lists appears to be.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Experienced an anomalous non gravitational acceleration in the next three days.
She says it will change course to a direct impact
with Earth, and it will be an equivalent of approximately
two hundred thousand mega tons of T and T that
would trigger a global catastrophic consequence. She said, we're not
dealing with debris or of a ninn visitor. My analys

(06:12):
My analysis indicates consistent direct propulsion that implies either natural
Whether it's a natural or exotic object, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
We are. We need to evacuate Earth and go where
the moon.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Figure it out pretty quick. Is this a real new
story or a fake news story?

Speaker 3 (06:33):
Nina, It is fake because we already decided they're aliens.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
That's that's what I red, Victoria. Real or fake.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Renowned scientists issues dire warning Comet three i at List
isn't an alien ship, but it is on a collision
course with Earth.

Speaker 3 (06:48):

anyone these days inclause.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
Of the doctor of scientists or whatever they want to
call themselves.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
So I bet you think she did say this.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
It is a fake news story. Yeah, but it was hosted.
Somebody created this AI doctor. Somebody created this AI doctor
and used a bunch of scientific equations. But over ten
million people shared it and believe that three I at

Did I say your other fake? You said real, and
then you said it's fake.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
And you go, yeah, I think I meant fake by
b I know in my head I was saying fake.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Yeah, we got it, but it's fake. It's fake. But
over ten million people believed it. Is the point.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah yeah, stuff like that. You don't know what to believe.
So the smarter you sound, the more believable it is.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
And period, I know, and people will see anything online
and share it. So ten over ten million people out there,
probably most of them still believe that there is in
whatever three ietlants is on a collision course toward Earth
and we're all going to be gone.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Well we need to do that.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Jubil you need to make a video with your assessment
because yours actually makes sense.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
It does, but let's not make that video. It doesn't fly.
So we shared ten million times true.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Here's your next headline for real news or or fake news?
The segment where I read a new story. You have
to tell me whether it's a real news story or
a fake one that people actually believed. Unplanned older adult

Unplanned older pregnancies on the rise due to new treatment
for deafness.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Here's the story.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
A recent study found that the active ingredient in the
ed drug Viagra can help reverse certain types of inherited
hearing loss attributed to mutations in some sort of gene
that people have. In the past twelve months, physicians began
prescribing biagra to older patients with hearing loss, and since
then there have been over three hundred reports of older
adults who are being treated for hearing loss now preparing

(08:40):
for raising a new baby. Really well. Oh. A seventy
two year old man who took viagra to curious hearing
loss had his planning a class action lawsuit, saying that
he thought he was done with parenting thirty years ago,
but now is trying to paint a new baby room
and he already has a bad back.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
A leged mom. There's over three hundred people.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
OH Health officials have stated that they don't plan on
ending the treatment, but do plan on giving people who
use viagra for their hearing loss a pamphlet so that
they can relearn how to practice adult intimacy intimacy safely.
So it's helping with the hearing loss, but also helping
in another department that these people don't want.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Unplanned older adult pregnancies on the rise due to new
