AI Is Wild… and We’re Just Trying to Keep Up.

Autumn and Donald dive into the bizarre, hilarious, and slightly unsettling world of artificial intelligence known as AI. From automated customer service agents (when you really just wish you could talk to a human), AI art, deepfakes, and dating-app algorithms. Is AI making life easier… or just weirder? Or, like also….a little scary maybe? 

Autumn and Donald dive into the weird, hilarious, and slightly terrifying world of artificial intelligence. From robot voices and dating-app algorithms to AI art, songwriting, and the rise of deepfakes.

They share real-life encounters with ChatGPT, automated customer service nightmares, and the strange feeling of technology that seems to know you just a little too well. With humor, curiosity, and a healthy amount of side-eye, they explore whether AI is improving our lives… or slowly taking them over.

From Black Mirror moments to deepfake horror stories, they break down the fears, the fascination, and the reality check of living in an AI-powered world.

One thing becomes very clear: AI can do a lot,  but it still can’t compete with sarcasm, soul, or the chaotic banter we love from Autumn and Donald.

• AI everywhere: dating apps, customer service bots & creative tools
• ChatGPT and AI-generated voice experiments
• Deepfake culture & what “authentic” even means anymore
• Black Mirror references & real-life parallels
• Creative industry worries: art, writing, music & what counts as “original”

The Pressure, the Prompts, and the “No Tip” Guilt Trip.In this painfully relatable and laugh-out-loud episode, Autumn and Donald dive headfirst into the world of tipping culture, where generosity meets guilt and every coffee counter has a tip screen silently judging you.
