The Robot Apocalypse is Upon Us Thanks to AI Slop and Human Laziness

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour with Andy Riesmeyer Hour 3 (7.24)   Andy is still impressed by how good Waymo’s self-driving cars really are — the first time he rode one in San Francisco, the vehicle pulled over and a remote voice came through the speakers because a passenger wasn’t wearing a seatbelt. It leaves us wondering if Waymos also use remote drivers the way some driverless fleets in Las Vegas do. Andy rants about AI’s effect on the brain: Google now pushes Gemini answers to the top of every search with zero context, and the real robot apocalypse isn’t Terminator-style robots — it’s us lazily handing over our autonomy. The flood of AI-generated slop online is only getting worse.     Then it’s time for Andy’s favorite game, Solo to Solo (DJ Greasefire style), where he plays the isolated guitar solo from a classic track and listeners call in to guess the song and artist. First up is a retired pilot calling from LAX who still drives for Uber and admits to drinking on the job — maybe we should set him up with that earlier caller who doesn’t drink, claims she’s not boring, and has a cracking body. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
