Show Notes

Summary

Chris and Sam battle sore hands and relentless rain while diving into another week of tech-fueled randomness.

This episode, AI goes rogue with some shockingly blackmail-y behavior, people spiral into "ChatGPT psychosis," and the perils of viral fame – including a comedian jailed for his jokes – are explored.

There’s cicada chaos on rollercoasters, wind wars between Belgium and the Netherlands, and the science behind a deadly lake disaster that could wipe out millions.

All this, plus viral video skepticism and more in this week's episode.
