The AI Dystopia Is Already Here - You Just Haven't Noticed Yet

The thing is, we're all worried about AI taking over... but what if it already has? 🤖

Jack Austin and Adam Garcia dive deep into the dystopian potential of artificial intelligence - and it's way more mental than you think.

From the "dead internet theory" (spoiler: most of what you're reading online might already be fake) to AI drones hunting humans in Ukraine, this episode explores whether we're heading for apocalypse or utopia.

We unpack:

Why that viral LinkedIn post or Reddit story you shared might've been written by a bot
The terrifying reality of autonomous weapons already being deployed
How AI therapists are replacing human connection (and why that's not entirely bad)
The simulation theory question: Are we already living in the Matrix?
What happens when AI makes 90% of jobs obsolete (hint: it's not pretty)
Why the race for AGI might be humanity's last invention
Moments that blew our minds:

🎯 AI-generated slop flooding every platform (and why you can't tell anymore)

🎯 The Ukrainian conflict becoming a real-world testing ground for killer robots

🎯 How AI could diagnose your health problems years before human doctors

🎯 The economics of why we might all end up on universal basic income

🎯 That mental stat about tofu production efficiency vs. meat

I was thinking about this earlier - we're living through the most significant change in human history, and most of us are just... scrolling through it.

Whether you're excited about our AI overlords or stockpiling for the robot apocalypse, this conversation cuts through the hype to explore what's actually happening.

Spoiler: It's both better and worse than you think.

"What's the point of humanity if machines do everything better?" Yeah, we go there.
