Tonight on Rise Up After Dark, Evan opens the show solo with one of the wildest AI use cases we’ve seen yet: a murdered man, recreated in video using AI, addresses his killer in court. The article (sourced via the brilliant Clone aggregator from our friends at Boys Club and Dirty) sparks a live audience conversation about the ethics of AI, and where this tech is headed next.

Evan shares his experience generating AI content based on his own voice and likeness using tools like ElevenLabs and Podcraftr, and highlights video generation work from friend-of-the-show Neal (@cryptotocollege on X). We also explore how brain-computer interfaces and synthetic content could radically reshape storytelling and the ways we experience content.

Alex joins mid-show and lightens things up with a story about an honest locksmith and a broken door. Then the crew welcomes longtime tech and crypto-native Emily Herrick, founder of Foolproof Labs, for a rich conversation that spans:

• OG meme culture
• Mimetic theory and Susan Blackmore’s The Meme Machine
• Tokens and tokenomics that make sense
• A "cheeky" bot to punish spammers
• How $TRUMP to be the biggest meme coin of all time (Emily drops several new concepts--you'll want your notepad for this one).
