Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: And Frodo, who may or may not be a member
- 0:02Speaker 1: of Antifa. It's one more thing. I'm strong Andy, one
- 0:08Speaker 1: more thing coming up and hilarious. AI generated Tucker Carlston
- 0:15Speaker 1: commentary on the Lord of.
- 0:16Speaker 2: The Rings fantastic. So I was driving to work today
- 0:22Speaker 2: listening to the NPR, and they mentioned a story where
- 0:27Speaker 2: people that have diabetes who want to lose weight are
- 0:30Speaker 2: having trouble getting some of the weight loss drugs because
- 0:32Speaker 2: so many people who just want to lose weight because
- 0:34Speaker 2: they want to lose weight though look better, feel better,
- 0:38Speaker 2: are using it all up. But anyway, so I just
- 0:40Speaker 2: throw out the idea of text if you're on that
- 0:44Speaker 2: stuff or have tried it, and how it's going for you.
- 0:47Speaker 2: I don't know if I have any friends personally that
- 0:49Speaker 2: have told me they're using it. I don't think so.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Do you know people.
- 0:52Speaker 1: Personally using any of the scanning my memory banks? I
- 0:54Speaker 1: don't think so.
- 0:55Speaker 2: We got texts. These are our friends, our listeners.
- 0:59Speaker 1: That's right.
- 1:00Speaker 2: I'm a sixty eight year old male, been on ozepic
- 1:03Speaker 2: for nine months pre diabetic, lost thirty two pounds but
- 1:06Speaker 2: have gained seven back. The first round cost me seven
- 1:09Speaker 2: hundred dollars That's the other thing I threw out is
- 1:10Speaker 2: what does it cost you? First round cost seven hundred bucks,
- 1:13Speaker 2: the rest twenty five dollars. No side effects, but my
- 1:16Speaker 2: appetite has returned and I have to keep the beast
- 1:19Speaker 2: at bay. So that's interesting the idea that after had
- 1:23Speaker 2: a couple of people say that after a certain amount
- 1:25Speaker 2: of time of being on it, the appetite came back.
- 1:28Speaker 2: So that's what you were talking about last week with
- 1:30Speaker 2: some different drug about how drugs just have a tendency
- 1:33Speaker 2: to be less effective over time.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Oh, it's the same family of drugs.
- 1:36Speaker 2: Your body adjusts to them.
- 1:38Speaker 1: And a doctor said, no problem. Just indulging an hour
- 1:42Speaker 1: of strenuous exercise six days a week, Neil, keep the
- 1:46Speaker 1: weight off.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Yeah, that would do it. Thanks doc, Thanks for thanks
- 1:50Speaker 2: for that.
- 1:51Speaker 3: Yeah, there are some there have been some headlines where
- 1:53Speaker 3: people have stopped taking this stuff and they've gained more
- 1:56Speaker 3: weight back than they had lost.
- 1:58Speaker 2: That hurts. Yeah, it's a.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Commut rebound to Rooney, that happens with.
- 2:01Speaker 2: A lot of diets. Though you not only gain it
- 2:03Speaker 2: all back, but then some yep, why does that happen?
- 2:07Speaker 2: Is that that that you get your body saying I'll
- 2:09Speaker 2: show you.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Well, a lot of people do it in a way
- 2:11Speaker 3: that's not sustainable. You know, you see the people there,
- 2:14Speaker 3: I'm gonna lose weight, and they work out twice a
- 2:15Speaker 3: day and they eat nothing but let us for six
- 2:17Speaker 3: months and then you know they stop doing that, and
- 2:20Speaker 3: you know you can't do that for a period of time.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Well plus, and I think this is pretty well accepted
- 2:25Speaker 1: in medical science. I'm not one hundred percent sure, but
- 2:28Speaker 1: the idea that if you in effect starve your body,
- 2:33Speaker 1: your brain, your animal brain will say, oh no, there's
- 2:36Speaker 1: a threat to the food supply. You must pack on
- 2:39Speaker 1: the pounds. We're gonna make it a high priority to
- 2:42Speaker 1: store calories and that changes your set point.
- 2:46Speaker 2: That's what that's what they got to fix. Yes, please,
- 2:49Speaker 2: that's what they got to fix, is the brain when
- 2:51Speaker 2: the set point.
- 2:52Speaker 1: And I have my seventeen year old set point. Please,
- 2:55Speaker 1: it was a good set point.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Another was zembic person. Uh, success with it. They get
- 3:00Speaker 2: three months worth for fifteen dollars with their insurance, so
- 3:03Speaker 2: it's pretty cheap, I guess for certain people with insurance.
- 3:07Speaker 2: I'm a sales rep. I sell zep bound. I don't
- 3:11Speaker 2: know zepbound that's what bounds.
- 3:12Speaker 3: The new that's the new one that isn't designed for diabetes.
- 3:16Speaker 3: It's being pushed as weight loss.
- 3:19Speaker 2: As for me, I'm zetbound. There's no issue with availability.
- 3:22Speaker 2: If your insurance covers it's as low as twenty five
- 3:24Speaker 2: dollars a month. There you go, there's somebody who say that.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there is an issue with availability, and a
- 3:31Speaker 1: lot of people can't get their insurance to cover it.
- 3:34Speaker 2: I've been on well Go v since April twenty three,
- 3:38Speaker 2: starting weight three p fifty two, currently two eighty four.
- 3:40Speaker 2: I'm down sixty eight pounds, paid six twenty four initially,
- 3:44Speaker 2: but then it's practically for EI the rest of the year.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Okay, cool, Yeah, that's somebody who really really need to
- 3:49Speaker 1: lose weight for their health. So good for you. I
- 3:51Speaker 1: hope it works for you.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Here's a realistic one. I'm on no zepic for type two.
- 3:54Speaker 2: It curbs your appetite, but you have to make the
- 3:56Speaker 2: effort to lose weight by eating well and exercise. I mean,
- 4:00Speaker 2: it'll curb your appetite, but you won't lose weight unless
- 4:02Speaker 2: you you know, you could stay flat. Maybe, Yeah, that's
- 4:06Speaker 2: the problem. If I got to eat well and exercise. Well,
- 4:09Speaker 2: I should probably do that anyway.
- 4:11Speaker 3: I'd wonder how many people are taking those medications and
- 4:14Speaker 3: haven't lost weight, because you're not going to turn around
- 4:16Speaker 3: and go, oh, you know, probably I'm on this med
- 4:18Speaker 3: it's not making me lose weight. There's probably a lot
- 4:21Speaker 3: more people out there that you know, don't realize you
- 4:23Speaker 3: have to exercise with it or something like that.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I mean if that guy's right that you
- 4:28Speaker 2: have to eat right and exercise along with the drug,
- 4:31Speaker 2: well that's that's been the problem for a lot of
- 4:33Speaker 2: us all along, right to sustain eating right and exercising.
- 4:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it hedges the bet in your favor,
- 4:39Speaker 1: though you don't have to eat as carefully or exercise
- 4:43Speaker 1: as much with it because your appetite is suppressed.
- 4:47Speaker 4: Yes, Michael, the doctors they want me to go on
- 4:49Speaker 4: ozimpic and they've been pushing it to me, and I
- 4:52Speaker 4: don't want to do it because I'm not I've heard
- 4:54Speaker 4: about bad side effects and quite frankly.
- 4:57Speaker 2: Like a Christmas goose, Michael wear plastic pants.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Seriously, that's actually what I'm worried about. As far as
- 5:04Speaker 4: you know, my job in running the show, I can't
- 5:08Speaker 4: be leaving all the time. If you understand what I'm saying.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Sudden urges, Yeah right, yeah, we totally get it. Yeah wow,
- 5:15Speaker 1: Well how's your health for the show? Yeah, just it's necessary.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Diar concerned Michael.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Oh, so I'm.
- 5:23Speaker 4: Trying to do everything naturally, you know, good exercise and
- 5:27Speaker 4: changed my diet. I drank a lot of water this
- 5:29Speaker 4: morning and so far I've been doing.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Okay, how's your weight coming along? If you don't mind
- 5:35Speaker 1: me asking?
- 5:35Speaker 4: My weight's fine. I mean that I'm an unusual case.
- 5:38Speaker 4: They don't know what to do with me because they say,
- 5:40Speaker 4: usually people that come in that are type two diabetic
- 5:44Speaker 4: are overweight, and they said, you're really not overweight, and
- 5:47Speaker 4: so they think it's just heredity.
- 5:49Speaker 2: How's your stool?
- 5:50Speaker 1: Yeah, the stool? Can you imagine? I've been dealing with
- 5:54Speaker 1: this for thirty years.
- 5:55Speaker 3: I just don't get well, I don't get Jack.
- 5:59Speaker 2: It's like what I uh, before I found out I
- 6:02Speaker 2: had cancer, But I went in to see this What
- 6:04Speaker 2: was he? It was a urinary specialist in your knowledge?
- 6:08Speaker 2: Oh is that back when they thought it was a
- 6:10Speaker 2: process stating infection? But anyway, I wanted to see him.
- 6:12Speaker 2: First thing he said to me like first words out
- 6:13Speaker 2: of his mouth, how's your crap?
- 6:17Speaker 1: That's right, the old military doctor he was.
- 6:22Speaker 2: It makes sense him asking you exemplary.
- 6:26Speaker 1: He must be from some part of the country where
- 6:29Speaker 1: you don't say how's it going? So I will greet
- 6:31Speaker 1: him in his customed way, how's your crap? That's beautiful, Jack,
- 6:40Speaker 1: ain't Michael? Well, let us know you know what we're
- 6:41Speaker 1: rooting for you. If you have to set up like
- 6:44Speaker 1: an alternate bank of monitors and computers and stuff, which
- 6:48Speaker 1: is what how he controls everything in the bathroom, will
- 6:53Speaker 1: just tell management they have to like cording off a
- 6:56Speaker 1: cubicle that's just yours.
- 6:58Speaker 2: They can't fire you for medical conditions in the law, Michael.
- 7:01Speaker 4: I'm hoping I don't have to do that.
- 7:03Speaker 1: But thank you guys, you're you're very welcome. Ah. Where
- 7:07Speaker 1: were we? Ah? So I suppose we could move on. Oh,
- 7:11Speaker 1: but the names of the drugs, they've run out of,
- 7:14Speaker 1: the good sounding ones that kind of sound like car models.
- 7:20Speaker 1: You know, to ask your doctor if Impreza is right
- 7:22Speaker 1: for you, that sort of thing, And they're onto Wigovia
- 7:27Speaker 1: and zep Bound. Like I've listened to too much bad company,
- 7:31Speaker 1: and I'd rather hear immigrant songs, so I guess I'm
- 7:33Speaker 1: zep bound or something. And and ozempic sounds like you know,
- 7:38Speaker 1: do you prefer the summer oseempics with the track and
- 7:41Speaker 1: field or the winter oseempics with the skiing.
- 7:44Speaker 2: I'm taking I'm taking Sonata in My erections are fantastic. Yeah,
- 7:48Speaker 2: they've run out of names.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Ask you doctor, Sonata is right for you. So it
- 7:54Speaker 1: helps to enjoy this if you are a Lord of
- 7:56Speaker 1: the Rings fan. Judy and I have watched all of
- 7:59Speaker 1: the movies multiple times, love love, love them. But this
- 8:02Speaker 1: is the current state of AI for audio. Now. During
- 8:06Speaker 1: the radio show, we were talking about how the ability
- 8:09Speaker 1: to produce video from text. You describe what you want
- 8:12Speaker 1: to see, and now computers can create that scene in
- 8:17Speaker 1: a way that I haven't actually seen it, but we're
- 8:19Speaker 1: quoting Tyler Perry who said, it's just it's so amazing.
- 8:22Speaker 1: He's canceling all of his plans to build studios. There's
- 8:25Speaker 1: no point, just amazing. And obviously that's mind blowing because
- 8:30Speaker 1: the visuals of it. But this is Tucker Carlson on
- 8:33Speaker 1: one of his standard riffs, but this time about the
- 8:37Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings.
- 8:38Speaker 5: Enjoy good evening, and welcome to Tucker Carlson tonight Middle
- 8:42Speaker 5: Earth Edition. Now, as any honest and decent person knows,
- 8:46Speaker 5: Saarron is not a figure to be taken unconcernedly. This
- 8:50Speaker 5: wasn't up for debate even a few years ago. But
- 8:53Speaker 5: all of a sudden, you've got militarized Nasghoul patrolling the
- 8:57Speaker 5: shire and threatening the ability of its citizens to travel freely.
- 9:01Speaker 5: So why are some of Middle Earth's residents, namely Sarah
- 9:05Speaker 5: Man the White, signing off on it.
- 9:08Speaker 1: What's really going on here?
- 9:11Speaker 5: For unassuming hobbits, not warriors, not politicians, are embarking on
- 9:17Speaker 5: a journey that would daunt even the most seasoned adventurers.
- 9:22Speaker 5: Why because when the fabric of freedom is threatened, it's
- 9:25Speaker 5: the duty of every citizen to stand up to tyranny.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Period.
- 9:32Speaker 5: When did we forget how to say, well, actually, no,
- 9:35Speaker 5: you can't just enslave the whole world. Sorry, that's not
- 9:38Speaker 5: how things work. And let's be clear, these Hobbits aren't delusional,
- 9:43Speaker 5: they don't believe they can defeat such darkness on their own,
- 9:47Speaker 5: but we all get the sense that they understand that
- 9:50Speaker 5: standing up to evil, no matter how insurmountable it seems,
- 9:54Speaker 5: is what separates the moral from the cowardly. Anyone with
- 9:58Speaker 5: a pulse and two brains can't help but feel inspired
- 10:02Speaker 5: by a story like this. Courage isn't just a word,
- 10:05Speaker 5: it's the pillar on which every civilization worth remembering is
- 10:09Speaker 5: built upon it. The moment we forget that is the
- 10:12Speaker 5: moment that evil wins.
- 10:16Speaker 1: So what's striking about that, obviously, is it was not
- 10:21Speaker 1: very long ago at all. We've got like that that
- 10:24Speaker 1: early when Katie put together. Did you do the one
- 10:26Speaker 1: Katie that was Donald Trump introducing us for final thoughts?
- 10:30Speaker 2: I believe so I did make one of those. I
- 10:32Speaker 2: don't know if that's the one. And what's your level
- 10:34Speaker 2: of expertise with that sort of thing?
- 10:38Speaker 3: I mean, I'm no pro, but I've made several that
- 10:41Speaker 3: you guys have aired right, But so you've dabbled in
- 10:45Speaker 3: it and dabbled at it quickly.
- 10:46Speaker 1: But anyway, my point was not very long ago. It
- 10:49Speaker 1: was here's these two roobs, Armstrong and Getty. It had
- 10:52Speaker 1: that feel to it, and though wearing expensive headphones, I
- 10:56Speaker 1: could hear that the speech is just a little clipped
- 11:00Speaker 1: because it's individual words, as opposed to when real people talk,
- 11:03Speaker 1: they kind of run their words together. But other than that,
- 11:06Speaker 1: it was astoundingly realistic, and it captured Tucker's inflections so well, yeah.
- 11:13Speaker 2: So it's like ninety percent of the way there by
- 11:16Speaker 2: an amateur.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Well I'm not sure who put that together, but yeah, again,
- 11:24Speaker 1: the inflections were perfect.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Well, even you know an amateur, the ones that I make,
- 11:31Speaker 3: they pick up his tone because these websites are getting
- 11:34Speaker 3: more audio samples by the day, and so you pick
- 11:38Speaker 3: up Tucker Carlson saying a certain word fifty different times,
- 11:42Speaker 3: they're going to get it perfectly and be able to.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Put it into those sentences.
- 11:46Speaker 3: It's really incredible the way they do this well.
- 11:48Speaker 1: And what I'd argue is it sounds like it's going
- 11:51Speaker 1: beyond words to phrases, because we could pick any random
- 11:56Speaker 1: sentence or two from that, but they were delivered in
- 11:59Speaker 1: the tone of Tucker would deliver them, as opposed to
- 12:02Speaker 1: kind of randomized. It's clearly his voice, but the inflections
- 12:05Speaker 1: are all wrong because that was the state of the
- 12:07Speaker 1: art like a year ago.
- 12:09Speaker 2: So where do you where do you think this ends up?
- 12:11Speaker 2: Assuming they get it all perfect, which will be by
- 12:14Speaker 2: this afternoon.
- 12:15Speaker 1: Uh, utterly undetectable to the human ear by this afternoon,
- 12:19Speaker 1: as you say, with videos soon to follow, deep fake
- 12:25Speaker 1: video that will be undetectable except with technical equipment, and
- 12:30Speaker 1: perhaps even then, I don't know soon. And I just
- 12:33Speaker 1: as I was listening to that, I thought it would
- 12:35Speaker 1: be so easy to create somebody like one of us
- 12:40Speaker 1: saying something just utterly loathsome career ending, and then we
- 12:44Speaker 1: would be scrambling and say, no, we never said that,
- 12:46Speaker 1: that's AI.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Now we can deny anything when we say something loathsome
- 12:50Speaker 2: never said that.
- 12:52Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yeah, there's there are a few things I'd
- 12:54Speaker 1: like to say that I think anybody would think are loathsome.
- 12:57Speaker 1: But there are a couple.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, people didn't prior to this, nobody believed anything
- 13:04Speaker 2: they saw or heard. So I'll put an end to that.
- 13:09Speaker 1: Read something interesting the other day about how when people
- 13:18Speaker 1: have no idea what to believe anymore, they just figure
- 13:21Speaker 1: f it. I'll follow an authority figure. Hmmm, a strong
- 13:25Speaker 1: man leader.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Awesome, I'll have a good end.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 13:30Speaker 4: Oh golly, hey, Katie, have you done any video with
- 13:35Speaker 4: AI yet?
- 13:36Speaker 1: No?
- 13:36Speaker 3: Not yet?
- 13:37Speaker 2: So or Sora, what is the name of that I
- 13:39Speaker 2: said earlier? Sora, I think so, I'll give it a shot.
- 13:41Speaker 2: That's the new one, and I don't know how hard
- 13:43Speaker 2: that is to use, but you can. Yeah, you just
- 13:45Speaker 2: say things and ended up with video. I want to
- 13:47Speaker 2: mess around that with that with my kids. I can
- 13:49Speaker 2: see my kids being entertained with that endlessly. Abraham Lincoln
- 13:54Speaker 2: riding and Ostrich. It could be yours, it could be real.
- 13:58Speaker 2: I want to dream.
- 14:00Speaker 1: So He's fantastic through the streets of Manhattan during a rainstorm,
- 14:05Speaker 1: top hat pulled low over his eyes as he shouts,
- 14:09Speaker 1: I don't know why did Bruce Jenner become a woman.
- 14:13Speaker 1: There is anything I could dream there. It would be
- 14:18Speaker 4: Well, I guess that's it.
