AI vs Humans: 700 workers PRETENDED to be AI | Unpacking Automation, Agentic, & Replacing Jobs FOREVER

AI vs Humans: Why 700 People Pretended to Be AI What happens when humans become the AI? In this week’s episode of They Might Be Self-Aware, we unpack the surreal story of 700 employees at Builder.ai who pretended to be artificial intelligence – and the billion-dollar fraud that followed. From there, we dive deep into the expanding gray area between humans, automation, and AI agency. We explore: * The UAE’s plan to give every citizen ChatGPT Plus access – is this a path toward UBI 2.0 or taxpayer nonsense? * Duolingo’s AI push: admirable progress or quiet job cuts? * The million-dollar AI employee – would you pay more for a digital rockstar? * Agentic AI, AI cost vs. value, and whether our jobs – or our lives – are already inside the simulation. We also talk about AI fraud, job replacement, human-in-the-loop systems, and the growing trend of people on TikTok claiming to be AI. This episode is a no-holds-barred look at how automation is reshaping labor, identity, and trust – with real stories and sharp speculation from the AI frontlines. --- * 🎧 Listen on your favorite platform: * Official Website: https://tmbsa.tech * All Links (Linktree): https://linktr.ee/tmbsa * 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EcvzkWDRFwnmIXoh7S4Mb?si=3d0f8920382649cc * 📱 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/they-might-be-self-aware/id1730993297 --- #AIvsHumans #BuilderAI #ChatGPTPlus Like what you hear?
