Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

remember, regardless of how outspoken you are in life, nothing will stop the capitalists from reanimating your defiled corpse into a shitheaded centrist zombie if there’s a buck in it:

“I'd just like to say that as much as I think billionaires are destroying the fabric of society with unchecked greed and blatant self-interest at the expense of basic human rights for everyone else, it is a little strange to me that people get mad at them. People are the ones who gave them the money in the first place," the AI Carlin said.

(editor’s note: the above is supposed to be a joke from the comedy special these fucking assholes hijacked Carlin’s corpse to promote. I can’t find the punchline, but it’s supposed to be a joke)

I got the story on this from a friend who has watched it. It's comedian Will Sasso "pretending" to have an AI co-host. He says in the first episode that it's fake but to suspend your disbelief because they're gonna pretend it's real like wrestling. He visibly clicks a mouse to make Dudesy talk

I remember him as the Mad TV guy

I'm pretty sure there's a third guy in the room with them that is their AI voice, because his hand movements usually correlate to Will's stream deck camera changes
