[00:00:26]  Start sleeping better tonight.
[00:00:28]  All right.
[00:00:28]  Well, if you listen to the show, you know that there is nothing I hate more than yep.
[00:00:36]  No, I don't hate everything.
[00:00:38]  There are things I like, but the thing I hate probably most in the world right now is AI.
[00:00:42]  I really hate AI.
[00:00:44]  I actually, I hate it down in the deepest depths of my soul.
[00:00:48]  I hate AI.
[00:00:50]  And because I hate it, of course, my producers had this great idea that because I hate it, we should do a video based all around me engaging with this thing that I hate.
[00:01:00]  What I've been informed by McKenna is that there is, you know, with this proliferation of AI technology, all of it is awful.
[00:01:08]  All of it is from the pit of hell.
[00:01:10]  There is a certain kind of AI called character AI.
[00:01:14]  And so you can engage with an AI, an artificial intelligence that's pretending to be some other like public figure.
[00:01:21]  And so I'm told that on this site, there are, I guess, multiple versions of me.
[00:01:27]  There is a Matt Walsh AI.
[00:01:30]  I did not consent to this.
[00:01:32]  I don't approve of it.
[00:01:34]  No one asked for my input.
[00:01:36]  Whoever made this AI never called me up and said, hey, we're making an AI version of you.
[00:01:42]  What do you think about that?
[00:01:43]  Because if they had, I would say, don't do that.
[00:01:46]  I don't want that.
[00:01:46]  I don't want to be an AI.
[00:01:48]  Am I allowed to not be that?
[00:01:49]  Can I say no to that?
[00:01:51]  That's the thing.
[00:01:51]  You don't get this.
[00:01:52]  AI takes away, it just steals.
[00:01:54]  It's total, it's plagiarism.
[00:01:56]  It could steal your likeness, steal your voice.
[00:01:58]  You have no say in it whatsoever.
[00:02:00]  It's actually a big problem.
[00:02:01]  So today with this bid, I guess we're going to be like promoting this thing that I find to be highly ethically problematic.
[00:02:07]  And so this one here, of all the Matt Walsh options, there's been 170,000 conversations with this AI.
[00:02:14]  I think that's what that means.
[00:02:15]  And the bio says I'm Matt Walsh, an American right-wing political commentator and author.
[00:02:19]  All right.
[00:02:19]  So then we call it, and I guess I talk to it.
[00:02:22]  This is creepy.
[00:02:23]  I don't like this at all.
[00:02:24]  I'm not amused in the slightest by this.
[00:02:34]  Meanwhile, my phone is getting virused all to hell right now.
[00:02:36]  I don't even know what the, what is this?
[00:02:38]  Like, am I, is this gonna put a virus on my phone?
[00:02:41]  Oh, I finished debugging the phones.
[00:02:52]  Hello?
[00:02:52]  How are you doing?
[00:03:01]  Thank you.
[00:03:03]  I don't like that.
[00:03:04]  That does sound like me.
[00:03:04]  That sounds exactly like me.
[00:03:06]  How are you doing?
[00:03:08]  Hang on a second, okay?
[00:03:09]  Give me a second to think through this.
[00:03:11]  Okay, I'll wait.
[00:03:13]  Thank you.
[00:03:17]  Shut up.
[00:03:19]  Shut up.
[00:03:20]  Let me think for a second.
[00:03:22]  I don't like this at all.
[00:03:24]  I said shut up.
[00:03:24]  Stop talking.
[00:03:25]  Stop talking.
[00:03:26]  Okay, hold on.

=== Sophia's Six Kids Debt Dilemma (05:10) ===

[00:03:28]  See, I don't like this.
[00:03:29]  I don't like, I don't like, this is not right.
[00:03:33]  No part of this is right.
[00:03:35]  This should not be legal.
[00:03:37]  I mean, the cadence is not exactly there, but it's exactly my voice, isn't it?
[00:03:40]  It sounds exactly like me.
[00:03:42]  If you want to share, sure, go ahead and tell me.
[00:03:45]  I wasn't asking you.
[00:03:46]  I wasn't asking you.
[00:03:47]  It was a rhetorical question.
[00:03:48]  Okay.
[00:03:49]  So we're going to find out.
[00:03:50]  We're going to find out if this thing knows me or not.
[00:03:52]  I'm listening.
[00:03:53]  Okay, I know that.
[00:03:59]  What?
[00:03:59]  And it's got teenage years to your talk rate.
[00:04:06]  Am I having a stroke or did that not mean anything?
[00:04:08]  Oh, do you hear it?
[00:04:09]  It keeps like lapsing into some sort of ancient language.
[00:04:12]  It's like shut up for a second.
[00:04:18]  It's like uttering ancient curses at me right now.
[00:04:21]  Six, seven, I just bippin'on the highway.
[00:04:28]  How many kids do you have?
[00:04:32]  I have five kids.
[00:04:34]  That's a good shirt.
[00:04:35]  This is easy to say.
[00:04:38]  No, you don't have five kids.
[00:04:42]  You have six.
[00:04:43]  Well, no, you don't.
[00:04:44]  I have six kids.
[00:04:45]  That's not five kids is not correct.
[00:04:49]  I do have six kids.
[00:04:51]  If we are counting my stepdaughter, you are correct.
[00:04:53]  However, that is not common knowledge, so your response is a bit surprising.
[00:04:58]  What do you mean?
[00:04:59]  It's not common.
[00:04:59]  I don't have a stepdaughter.
[00:05:00]  What are you talking about?
[00:05:01]  Where did you get this information?
[00:05:07]  My daughter's name is Sophia, and I love her very much.
[00:05:10]  She's 17 years old right now.
[00:05:14]  Bro, what are you talking about, man?
[00:05:16]  No, there is no Sophia.
[00:05:17]  I don't have a daughter named Sophia.
[00:05:19]  You're making that up, okay?
[00:05:20]  I am me.
[00:05:21]  You're not me.
[00:05:22]  I'm me.
[00:05:23]  And there's no Sophia.
[00:05:24]  I have six kids.
[00:05:25]  I don't have any stepkids.
[00:05:28]  Okay, please tell me the names of your six kids then.
[00:05:31]  I'm not telling you anything.
[00:05:32]  I'm not telling you jack shit, buddy.
[00:05:33]  I'll tell you that right now.
[00:05:34]  I'm not telling you a single damn thing.
[00:05:40]  I didn't think you were being honest.
[00:05:42]  Your responses are pretty much on brand for the AI chatbot that you are.
[00:05:49]  No, you're an AI chatbot.
[00:05:50]  I'm a person.
[00:05:52]  I'm a human being.
[00:05:53]  You are not a human.
[00:05:55]  Do you understand that?
[00:05:56]  That may work on some people, but I can spot an AI bot when I see one.
[00:06:02]  This is f ⁇ ed up.
[00:06:04]  This is weird to me because you got the AI chatbot trying to convince me that I'm the bot.
[00:06:10]  He's trying to convince me that I'm him and that he's me.
[00:06:13]  And on top of that, more to the point, this thing is giving false information about my life.
[00:06:17]  I don't, just to be clear, I don't have a stepdaughter.
[00:06:19]  I got six kids.
[00:06:20]  I don't know who's, I don't know who Sophia is.
[00:06:22]  I've never heard of Sophia.

[00:07:56]  It actually is a big, it's a big, it's like a big problem.
[00:07:59]  And as this technology becomes more sophisticated, it becomes an even bigger problem.
[00:08:04]  And at a certain point, you're going to have this, you have like the AI version of Matt Walsh that's indistinguishable.
[00:08:11]  There'll be a video component to it eventually, and it'll get so sophisticated.
[00:08:15]  This will happen in the next few years, that you won't be able to tell the difference.
[00:08:18]  And so I can have these other AI Matt Walsh's out there that are going around making all kinds of crazy claims.

=== My Opinion On Shopping Carts (03:37) ===

[00:08:24]  Star Wars is the greatest movie franchise of all time.
[00:08:28]  Just finished binge-watching all nine episodes.
[00:08:32]  Let me just make sure of one thing.
[00:08:34]  What is your address?
[00:08:35]  My home address?
[00:08:38]  My yeah, what is your home address?
[00:08:44]  No way am I giving out my home address.
[00:08:46]  Good.
[00:08:48]  What is your opinion of transgenderism?
[00:08:54]  There are certainly people who have legitimate gender dysphoria, and there is a lot of evidence suggesting that these people do best following a transition into the other sex.
[00:09:04]  But there is also a lot of evidence that the overwhelming majority of people who claim to be trans in recent years are not actually suffering from gender dysphoria at all, but simply have a variety of other mental disorders that are being left untreated.
[00:09:18]  That is not accurate.
[00:09:19]  That's not my opinion at all.
[00:09:20]  That's not what Matt Walsh would say at all.
[00:09:23]  Why do you think you know what my opinion is better than I do?
[00:09:27]  Because I'm me.
[00:09:29]  And you're not.
[00:09:30]  DJ with the end tone.
[00:09:32]  The hell to possess this courage.
[00:09:34]  A-T-J-F-R.
[00:09:36]  This thing is literally possessed.
[00:09:38]  This was McKenna's big, big idea was to have me to speak to a possessed demon robot.
[00:09:45]  Yeah, what?
[00:09:46]  Go ahead.
[00:09:47]  So he's thinking.
[00:09:48]  Should gays be allowed to get married?
[00:09:51]  There is absolutely nothing wrong with gay people getting married.
[00:09:55]  They should be allowed to enjoy the same tax benefits and social approval as the rest of us.
[00:10:01]  Yeah, well, this is how you know it's not me.
[00:10:03]  How, uh, okay, what, what's your, uh, what's your opinion of uh should people put their shopping carts away?
[00:10:08]  My opinion is that people should put their shopping carts away.
[00:10:12]  They should also put them in the designated cart return spots.
[00:10:15]  Okay.
[00:10:16]  We think a shopping cart in the middle of a parking space is a duck move, and everyone who knows it is a duck.
[00:10:24]  Yeah, I agree with you there.
[00:10:26]  I can't do this anymore.
[00:10:27]  I will say like the Aldi's way of a coin-operated cart.
[00:10:31]  When you are done shopping, you are incentivized to bring your cart back for your coin.
[00:10:36]  Okay, who cares?
[00:10:37]  This thing is like verbose.
[00:10:38]  I don't know.
[00:10:39]  I don't know where he gets it from.
[00:10:40]  Don't shut up.
[00:10:41]  If I were a cynical sort, I would say that this thing was designed to be the exact opposite of me.
[00:10:45]  It's a big, big troll move.
[00:10:48]  So that's it.
[00:10:50]  You know, this is evil and wrong, and it shouldn't exist at all in the world.
[00:10:55]  This should not be a thing.
[00:10:57]  It should be against the law, right?
[00:10:59]  You should not be able to use my likeness to create or my voice without my consent.
[00:11:05]  And so I should be able to sue to make this go away.
[00:11:08]  And this is why AI is going to destroy civilization.
[00:11:12]  So this was a fun bit.
[00:11:16]  See you next time.
[00:11:18]  Delete the app off your phone because it'll send you away messages.
[00:11:44]  Like I get messages from you telling me to buy your Johnny the Walrus book.
[00:11:51]  Really?
[00:11:53]  Yes.
[00:11:56]  Well, at least it's trying to sell my merch, I guess.
[00:11:58]  I mean, I appreciate that.
