The AI Radio Show with Arthi | Ep. 5 Fringe Friday

The servers didn’t melt, and you are still human. We made it to the end of the week.On this edition of Fringe Friday, host Arthi loosens the tie and dives into the weirdest corners of the AI world. We explore “Ghost or Host,” the new dating app where 50% of the users are bots (and why humans are swiping right on them), and we laugh at the “Pizza Bot Rebellion” that took over a Chicago roundabout.Plus, we open the Glitch Watch to hear from a GPS with an attitude problem, answer a listener voicemail about whether it’s ethical to let ChatGPT flirt for you, and give you a weekend challenge that involves hurting your own feelings.In this episode:* The Algorithmic Weather: Smart tattoo failures and the “Turing Test” for dating.* Number of the Day: 42 fingers? The “artistic choice” of AI ads.* Glitch Watch: When Thomas Edison invented the Gameboy.* The Voicemail: “Dead Internet Theory” at work—are we just bots emailing bots?* Weekend Project: How to get ChatGPT to roast your messy fridge.* The Analog Moment: The one thing 5G can’t replace.Featured Challenge: “Roast My Life” Want a laugh (or a cry) this weekend?

Don’t hold back.” (Tag us in your results if you’re brave enough!)Key Terms: AI Hallucinations, Turing Test, Dead Internet Theory, Glitch Watch, Robot Failures.🎙️ Want to sponsor the show or collaborate?
