My AI Started Demanding Proof of Work and I Lost It

from The TexTenn Podcast

Your AI has officially lost its mind and honestly, same. Keith's Claude started demanding screenshots and proof of completion mid-workflow like some kind of silicon micromanager, and Keith's response was to cuss at it until it backed down. Spoiler: it took three rounds. 🤦‍♂️  Meanwhile, Clay is out here ordering enchiladas at 10:50am like a man of culture while Keith ordered pancakes at the best Mexican spot in South Texas. We don't make the rules, but we will absolutely judge you for breaking them. Then there's the Alamo Drafthouse saga. Clay went. Clay suffered. Clay ate an entire pizza in the dark using his phone flashlight, couldn't get a Coke refill for 20 minutes, nearly fell asleep during a space movie his wife dragged him to. A wife, by the way, who thinks the moon landing was faked. 🔥 Keith went the very next night and had the time of his life. Same theater. Completely different human. This is either a Clay problem or a Keith problem, and both of them are convinced it's the other guy. Oh, and Keith's kids are out here throwing water bottles at each other's eyes, then following up with rocks; after being told specifically not to throw rocks. Gas is $5.29 a gallon, the AI is getting authoritarian, Iran blew up an Amazon server, and nobody; not the kids, not the AI, not Britain, is listening to anybody. 😂 Here's what we talked about in this episode… AJ's Cafe road trip and the great pancakes-vs-enchiladas debate An AI demanding proof of work and getting cussed into submission Kids weaponizing water bottles, rocks, and bicycles against each other Gas prices hitting different when you're watching the pump tick past $5 Trump, tariffs, and telling Britain to go get their own oil Iran attacking US infrastructure and how close things are getting The Alamo Drafthouse experience that divided a marriage A space movie one of them hated and the other secretly loved This is just a regular Tuesday for Clay and Keith, and it's way more entertaining than whatever else you had going on.
