We’re back with another Insanity Check. It’s getting to the point where these episodes are more like weekly therapy sessions so we can try to make it through all the horrible shit that’s coming up in the week. Kriss is joined by Ro this time and we’re talking through some of the connective threads through all the things we’re dealing with.

The ability to see connections and understand the impacts of multiple things at a time is something we’ve seen really decline. And part of that is due to how some of the things we grew up doing either no longer happen or are much harder to get. It also doesn’t help that parents have a much harder time being able to help supplement their child’s learning because they’re being overworked and have less free time

We also talk about how the US stock market is held up by the same 7 companies, all off them responsible for shoving A.I. down our throats. And they’re doing it while packing environmentally unfriendly data centers in populated areas. Also…they told us that A.I. would  take the boring jobs and leave humans to do more Arts & Humanities. So why are we talking about A.I. actors now?

Full video on the expansion of Data Centers in residential areas.

One note, turns out Ro & I were talking about two different A.I. cases around A.I companies stealing copyright content. Fun times when it’s so many…you lose track.
