Let's go back to Tulsa to 9163.
When I first heard that on KEXP, I thought, oh, fuck, please don't be about the Tulsa massacres where we burnt down Wall Street.
Don't tell me misinformation is in my rock and roll.
Nothing to do with that.
Don't worry.
He'd anchor a band from London, England.
Fucking great.
I worry that maybe ChatGPT AI is going to start making our music.
Did you see this?
They told it to make a...
It's called The Red Hand Files, issue number 218.
It's Nick Cave's newsletter.
And people have been asking ChatGPT to make Nick Cave songs.
And they send them to him.
He's not happy.
I'm impressed.
Nick's not impressed.
He doesn't like it.
Yeah, the left one.
So this is a computer writing a Nick Cave song.
In the depths of the night I hear a call, a voice that echoes through the hall.
It's a siren song that pulls me in, takes me to a place where I can't begin.
I am the sinner, I am the saint.
I am the darkness, I am the light.
I am the hunter, I am the prey.
I am the devil, I am the savior.
I walk the streets with my head held high.
This is fucking nick game.
I've got my demons, but I'll make them fly.
I'll dance with the devil and play his game.
I'll be the one to call his name.
Repeat chorus.
I've got the blood of angels on my hands.
I've got the fire of hell in my eyes.
I'm the king of the abysses.
It must be so insulting to realize you're that predictable, you know?
But we are.
We're pretty similar.
I mean, I'm very special, obviously, but pretty much everyone on my street is the same.
Normies, boring normies.
And it makes you think, wait a minute, if you can feed it a pile of Nick Cave songs and it comes back with something this good, can I feed it my entire personality?
Like at the end of that movie, Chappie with Diantward, he's shot and he's dying.
So Chappie helps this packy scientist download his brain into the computer.
Doesn't take that long.
And then he takes it from the computer and puts it in another robot.
And then it's Chappie and his friend, the other robot.
And his entire personality is in there.
And then I'm thinking, like, yeah, there we go.
That was fast.
I have thousands of hours of content that I've created.
You can have Chappie playing while we talk about this.
So I wouldn't even have to sit and say stuff to AI.
What's that noise?
Oh, it's behind us.
I could just feed it.
Free speech.
Oh, my God.
All my vice articles.
Oh, then you're like, well, that was a different me.
I was much younger then.
I was like 25.
I'm not sure I want that uploaded.
The more recent, the better.
When are you done formulating it?
Probably like when you have kids.
That's when you begin.
No, that's when you're done, I should say.
So everything post-kid I would want set in the computer.
And then I die, right?
Then there's a screen in the living room, in the bookshelf.
And kids come home and they say, like, hey, blah, blah, blah, happened.
And I would answer the way I would answer.
So now we can die.
Now we're immortal.
There he is.
Look.
Turn it up.
Micah, please take it slow.
