• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Mother effing school.
• 0:32
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'm telling you right now that we are about
• 0:35
  Speaker 5: to experience what I call a great disconnect. You are
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: going to have a large swath of society that completely
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: submits to the robots.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: They're going to completely submit the AI.
• 0:43
  Speaker 5: Those are going to be the people who are proud
• 0:45
  Speaker 5: citizens of a techno feudalist society.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: If you don't know what techno feudalism.
• 0:49
  Speaker 5: Is, please read a great book called Techno Feudalism What
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: Killed Capitalism by yah Nas Baru Fakkas. I think that's
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: why his name I can never pronounce. The book is
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: techno feudalism what killed capitalism. But the rest of us
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: are going to disconnect because nobody wants to spend the
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: rest of their life going on social media questioning what's
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: real or not.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, I'm not doing.
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: It, swiping constantly asking yourself is this real? Sending links
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: to people and they hitting you back like that's not real.
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: I don't have the mental and emotional bandwidth to live
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: like that. And also in our line of work, the
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: radio industry, there are already some things being done by
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: AI technical stuff and I hate it, okay, because AI
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: is not a human and when it comes to the details,
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: nothing beats a human touch.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: AI does not micromanage. Okay, I'm not even sureing AI
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: does the basic macro stuff good yet. But I don't
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: want people using AI to cut clips for breakfast club.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: I don't want people using AI to.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Title things and create descriptions because AI gets a lot wrong.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: And that is why Tiffany Hernandez and Glendale Community College
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: you need to be at the front of the congregation
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: today because they decided to use AI for something that
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: absolutely won percent.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: Needs a human touch. And that's the graduation ceremony.
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: Yes, someone at Glendale Community Kylee thought it would be
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: a great idea to have AI announce the students' names,
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: and this happens.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Let's go to WRIL for the report.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: Please, what a mess for everyone involved here at Glendale
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: Community College. Students work so hard to get to this
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: point to get their diploma and graduate, and they say
• 2:25
  Speaker 6: the school should have been better prepared. Michael D. Gonzalez.
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: The names being read during GCC's commencement didn't appear to
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: match who was walking across stage India Hall. Then the
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: names at the bottom of the screen stopped changing. Has
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: just seen that de Mesa Jimenez. Then the screen on
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: the left goes blank.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: I was honestly just proud to be there in the moment.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: It was only after Grace Rymer crossed the stage and
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: returned to her seat that she realized something was off.
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: Here's the photo that's her on stage. That's not her name.
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: But I also didn't hear a lot of cheering, and
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: I know that my family is a pretty loud family.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: Several minutes later, Grace Marie Ryman she finally heard her name.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's not right, and it definitely made me feel uneasy.
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: Here's what's happening. We're using a new AI system that's
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: our reader, so that is a lesson learned for us.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: This story is the perfect example of people using AI
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: because they're lazy for no reason. Okay, I mean, what
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: is the point of using AI for these kids? Graduation?
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Is it really too much to ask to have a
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: couple of people stand up and read names?
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: Are we really just gonna let the robots have everything?
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: Were concerned about AI taking jobs, but we're giving.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Away the easy ones like this.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: Okay, You adults are busy trying to save time maybe money,
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but you're completely missing the point of
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: the moment.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Graduation isn't just some assembly line event. You can't treat.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: These kids like products on a conveyor belt fall off,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: some don't, some get labeled wrong, some get labeled right,
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: some get stamped, some get thrown away. This is a
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: once in a lifetime ceremony for these kids.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Families drove in Okay, students spent.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Years and thousands of dollars hustling, and you turned the
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: most personal part.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Here in your name called so you can do a little.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: Dance with some pomping circumstance y'all turn that to just
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: the glitching the matrix, okay, and the irony.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Of this story. What really bothers me?
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: These schools spend years telling students, don't use chat GPT okay,
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: don't use AI to plagiarize, do the work yourself, don't
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: let AI do it for you. Then as soon as
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: it's time for the administration to do their work, they
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: bring in RTD two, RTD two, R two R two
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: D two.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: What's the thing name of R two D two? Okay?
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: They bring in Wally all right, they bringing Optimus Prime.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: They're bringing a terminator okay, to do all the work
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: for them.
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: What would you do if you found out your fitness
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: trainer was secretly using those zimpics and zet bound but
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: was always speaking to you about the dangers of weight life.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: Would you trust them? No, you wouldn't. Okay, Hey, young
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: world generation Z. Where does AI rank in your top
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: five in regards to your growing list of resentments? Okay,
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: I know, y'all, I know y'all hate hustle culture, that's
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: up there, climate change, capitalism, America being behold in the Israel.
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: Where does rapid unchecked integration of AI into your lives
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: and workplace rank. All right, you have a whole generation
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: who already feel like technology is replacing jobs, creativity, and
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: human connection, and this incident at Glendale Community College is
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: just another example of that. Okay, Glendale Community College, you
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: have proven that common sense is now an elective course.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: Using AI to announce human names at a graduation and
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: the robot with skipping people like Spotify skipping songs on Shuffle,
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: This is the problem with society.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: Okay. Everybody wants efficiency over expense.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: AI can't guarantee efficiency, but happy well paid human Okay,
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: I'm not even sure AI knows what efficiency is. I
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: damn sure know that AI doesn't understand empathy are the
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: importance of a moment. And when this robot messed up
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: these kids' names, all President Tiffany Hernandez and the administration
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: could offer is the corporate classic. We apologize for the inconvenience. Man,
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: Skipping someone's name and graduation is more than an inconvenience.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: Imagine being the first person in your family to graduate
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: college and your old grandma sitting there waiting to hear
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: your name, and she doesn't, and she thinks she's losing
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: her hairingd because she never heard your name, but she
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: knows she saw.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: You walk across stage. Got that old lady thinking she
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: going crazy and it's your fault.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: This is why people are scared of AI, not because
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: the technology exists, but because humans keep using it to
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: replace moments that require actual humanity. Okay, some things require soul,
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: and that's what AI will never have. Please give President
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: Tiffany her Nandez of Glendale Community College the biggest e hull.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: I see your dumb ass beige wheels turning.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: I see them stupid ass waffle colored wheels turning.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, what is your brain thinking? Man? That
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: is the color of dirty urine.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Remember when Webby was up here and Webby couldn't pronounce names. Now,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: some of those names, I see what you're doing some
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: of those names.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: That's different Now.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: If I had to, if I had to choose who
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: to say the names, Okay, it's Webby. If it's me
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: because I can't really pronounce that. Well, if it's just hilarious,
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: then maybe you think AI. Okay, if it's you, I'm
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: going to die. Maybe I just gotta see who else
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: is available for us, what other humans are.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Some of them names be what other.
