Knox Bronson ~ Riding The Wild Bubble episodes

  • Trump and the. Book of Daniel

    I asked Google Gemini if this passage from the Old Testament prophesized Trump:

    “In the latter part of their reign, when rebels have become completely wicked, a fierce-looking king, a master of intrigue, will arise. He will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy those who are mighty, the holy people. He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power.”

  • The Reason That I Am Alive
    the reason that I am alive by Boris Vian
    the reason that I am alive
    the reason that I am alive
    for the tanned leg
    of a blonde woman
    propped against the wall
    beneath the round sun
    for the billowing sails
    of a sleek schooner
    at the mouth of the harbor
    the iced coffee sipped through a straw
    for the caress of sand
    gazing at the watery deeps
    turning so blue
    descending into the deeps
    with the fish
    the tranquil fish
    they calm the bottom of the ocean
    fly above the seaweed hair
    like slow birds
    like blue birds
    the reason that I am alive
    because it is beautiful

  • AI is just another Ponzi scheme we are already paying for

    I asked Photoshop to create an image of Artificial Intelligence eating the Earth. It gave me R2-D2 with spindly legs holding a globe. Well-done.

    This episode is about when I was researching New Year's Eve celebrations in San Francisco in the 1930s and 1940s. Google Gemini made up a store I spent hours researching trying to find a primary source, like a newspaper article. I pressed Gemini for attribution and it gave me fake links. It even gave me an actual picture and lied about what was going on in the picture.

    AI is bullshit.

  • Snake Theater—Auto (1979)

    One of the most amazing theatrical productions I've ever seen. Staged at an abandoned gas station in Sausalito in the summer of 1979.
