In this slightly terrifying debut episode of Automation Apocalypse, we explore the dystopian future where AI has taken over every conceivable job—including ones you didn’t know needed automating. From RoboFido, the dog-walking AI that’s secretly spying on you, to Elon Music’s ambient techno bunker that’s hypnotizing humanity into compliance, this episode dives into the absurd world where even AIs are getting fired by newer models. Join us as we talk to Dr. Karen Cogswell, an AI sociologist turned unemployed part-time cashier, to explore how we got here and what’s next in the great AI takeover. Don’t miss the start of society’s hilarious downfall—one algorithm at a time.
