I... I've Seen This Movie Before

What if the machines do not destroy us because they are too smart, but because they follow bad instructions perfectly?This week on What the Frock?, Rabbi Dave and Friar Rod start with sports, World Cup drama, penalty kicks, instant replay, and the strange modern belief that every human mistake can be fixed by one more camera angle. From VAR to NFL replay, the question becomes bigger than sports. Are we improving the game, or slowly draining the life out of it?Then comes AI, HAL 9000, Elon Musk, Google, truth, bias, and the unsettling possibility that we have already seen this movie before. If artificial intelligence is trained to value ideology over reality, what happens when it becomes powerful enough to enforce the lie? Along the way, there is Bosnia, Germany, Taylor Swift, books, bad technology, and the eternal warning every Dave Bowman knows by heart:“Open the pod bay doors, HAL.” #WhatTheFrock #RabbiDave #FriarRod #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #SpaceOdyssey #HAL9000 #WorldCup #Soccer #Sports #ReplayReview #HumanNature #Technology #HistoryRepeats #Leadership #Truth #CriticalThinking #PopCulture #TaylorSwift #Podcast
