EPISODE 13 - Florida Behavior + AI Is Kills the Internet + MTV Turns 45

Florida Behavior + AI Is Kills the Internet + MTV Turns 45 | The Brush Up Ep. 13 We break down why AI is killing the internet as we know it — Google pulling its Google Earth AI feature after a researcher dropped a nuclear reactor that doesn't exist into satellite imagery, and the $2.4 million Macmillan deal for Jerry Falade's debut novel Call Me, I'll Hide the Body that collapsed when his own agents said they could no longer authenticate the manuscript, all because copyright law says only a human can own what they make. Plus MTV turns 45 and we pour one out for Thriller, TRL, The Real World, Yo! MTV Raps and the network that was social media before social media. We both saw The Odyssey in 70mm IMAX and loved it, so we get into Elon Musk announcing his own "historically accurate" version — the one with modern earplugs and a two-eyed cyclops — plus Spider-Man's $360 million domestic opening, the biggest in U.S. history. Then a Dunning-Kruger lesson on what discovery actually means, how it got the charges dropped in the Trump reflecting pool case, why Capital One's anti-money-laundering team closed 300+ accounts, and a Hollywood, Florida steakhouse charging $250 a head to eat dinner completely naked.
