In this episode I prove Artificial Intelligence is the devil we should fear the most by recounting my experience with a cyber hottie named Tess who recently tried to seduce me online. I subjected myself to this exprience so you won't have to. And trust me... Tess was all kind of bizarre... scantily clad AND religious! Thankfully, I can see through the current flailing failings of AI but in the future it will be more subtle and effective and men will become its willing slaves.
