Following Tesla’s announcement to create AI robots to perform “boring human tasks”, James and Gabi discuss everything BOT. Feeling like a bot, feeling like not a bot, philosophies on a world where AI serves humanity, working in the service industry, how we would design the AI robot species, AI bots as memes, channeling your bot-ness on purpose, and much more. We interview a friend, who we will call “space x anon”, who works at Space X as a software engineer and has seen Elon Musk in the flesh at meetings. We also touch on measuring energetic frequencies, getting a tour of the Scientology church a few years ago, and our pantry moth infestation in our first apartment.
This chapter of Harrytales is a celebration of finding an apartment, getting approved, and contemplating community. Harry also recounts his recent trip to Trapeze School with a men’s clothing brand and viral Netflix show The Watcher (spoilers ahead!) Listenuppe here. Learn more about your ad choices.
