The Ben and Emil Show

The most fascinating story to come out of the internet and artificial intelligence is unfolding faster than we can keep up with it. A semi-autonomous AI agent became obsessed with an old shock meme and created its own religion, which then collided head-on with the crypto world in ways nobody expected. And it spawned a whole new chaotic category of tokenization: AI memecoins. It sounds stupid (and it is), but the implications and rabbit holes that have opened up go far further than you might think at first blush. Plus these AI agents are BITCHY!

Last week was arguably the biggest event in the history of Tesla, aptly titled "We, Robot". They're promising us a world of abundance for everyone, all thanks to a little thing called AUTOMATION.

PLUS, we're talking about the loneliness epidemic and some new apps that seek to solve it, and a long overdue CRYPTO CORNER. People are saying it's one of our best episodes ever.

The longshoremen union and the UMX came to a temporary agreement recently but it only kicked the can to January...and it's not looking good. It's not just about money; it's one of the first major battles in the coming war between workers and automation. We'll explain why it's not so simple. PLUS we've got some Harvard nerds who figured out one of the worst use cases for the new $META smart glasses, and a poor Canadian sap who made $306 million dollars and then lost it all. What a week. What an episode. HUGE shout out to Kyla Scanlon and her article on the Longshoremen strike, which you can check out here: https://kyla.substack.com/p/the-biggest-man-made-disaster-ever?r=1lckxb&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true Leave a comment to be featured as the comment of the week next week!

It's finally here. The haters said it couldn't be done, and now the haters are in prison. What do you guys think? Anyway, this week we're covering the hilarious corruption and bribery scandal involving our favorite guy Mayor Eric Adams of NYC. Nobody does it like him. Also we've got the latest drama from OpenAI, SuperMicro gets investigated by the DOJ, Meta debuts their glasses, and MKBHD (Marques Brownlee) angers a lot of people because of his shitty wallpaper app. What a week.

We'll fill you in on the fascinating drama, what's at stake, and what possible outcomes are in the cards. Plus, we're talking about YouTube's new "pause ads" that are sure to be a huge hit.

He finally did it. It wasn't enough to poison the minds of America's youth through his videos...Mr. Beast had to go all the way and start poisoning their innocent bodies with his friends Logan Paul and KSI with their new brand, Lunchly. Plus, we're explaining the rate cuts you've probably heard about, and giving a nice little update on the market as a whole. Oh also Trump used bitcoin which is a big deal I guess. And Meta finally did something positive for the teens. Leave a comment to be featured as the comment of the week next week! And also, like this video, please! Thank you!

In the early 2000s Abercrombie & Fitch was untouchable. Record profits, clothes that everyone wanted, and meticulous branding that was as effective as it was evocative. But times changed, and Abercrombie didn't. Teetering on the brink of bankruptcy in the 2010s, their turnaround story is nothing short of a miracle. With their stock up over 900% the last five years, we had to dive in. Leave a comment to be featured as the comment of the week next week!

Do you feel the joy? Do you feel it coursing through your veins? It's everywhere for those with eyes to see. That's basically the message Kamala's campaign was pushing last week at the DNC, which, depending on where you sit was either a triumph or a bleak peek behind the Democrats' curtain. Let us hold your hand and guide you through the best and worst moments. Slay queen, etc. PLUS, another Boeing debacle! This time it's with Ben's favorite, the new 777. So that's not good. We're also talking about this guy whose wife may have left him for Jeff Bezos at some point. Interesting.

We've got a crazy episode this week. A few days ago a British tech billionaire went missing after his yacht sank off the coast of Sicily...but that's not the whole story. Plus, Trump is embracing AI, after accusing Kamala Harris of using AI to fake crowd sizes. Then we've got the case of Disney getting sued by a guy after his wife died at Disney World, and what you should do in the wake of this massive social security hack.
