Hello the Internet, and welcome to this episode of Elon Musk's trend Boy Army. That one courtesy of Vanadian Silver on the Discord. In reference to the fuck Boy Army, as Miles Gray has termed it, my name is Jack O'Brien, that, of course is.
Miles Bread same and fuck boy Army couldn't hold me back. Yeah, well, the fuck boy Army. They continue too, They continue to progress. Yeah, yeah, yep, And.
We're going to get into it the first miles. We have an important update to our Google AI super Bowl ad commercial story that we're calling real Eyes realizes AI eyeses. Yeah, we said right off the bat when we when we heard about this Google AI ad that was claiming I guess it got fixed by the time it hit the Super Bowl, but it was up all we It was an advertisement for a cheese farmer who's like, I can't write for shit, man.
I literate.
I'm basically illiterate. I'm fucking stupid. But I'm trying to build a business online and so I gotta, you know, use Google AI to write some facts to market my cheese. Nine of my business is online now and so and then on screen we see him just use Google AI to search Guda the cheese that he's selling, and the fact that he comes across is that Guda comprises fifty to sixty percent of global cheese consumption. This cheese farmer is willing to believe that Guda comprises fifty to sixty
percent of global cheese consumption. A cheese that you can't put on pizza, Yeah, you can't put on pot You like, it's not it's not a not a versatile. It's one of my favorite Jesus. I love Buddha.
This is my thing. This might be our new six point eight weeks.
This is but it's just so transparent. It's like you don't need to even think about it.
Yeah, and you're like, no, it's like being like sixty percent of the of America's music consumption is actually people spend time listening to the village people. You're like, no, what, no.
No, that can't be true. But it's just such a good example. It's such a good example of like why AI sucks, Like proof that corporations have already just hand it over all thinking to AI and been like, well, let the AI write the super Bowl commercial.
It we won't even BacT.
Check it, like we won't even read what it's writing onto the screen in our super Bowl commercial. We won't even read it. So people pointed out that's obviously not true. What you you got to buy your own ais quote unquote hallucinations aka just like shit. They made up like the fundamental flaw of this supposed research tool, and they were like, no, you got fooled because it's it's on like multiple websites. Oh okay, So people went and looked. It's on one website that they found, cheese dot com,
which is just like an seo rips. Just like somebody who bought that is sitting on the Cheese dot com. Uh u r l that probably.
Being stupid motherfucker who's like, oh man dot com though the second cheese needs a website. Uh huh huh. You didn't get Nike dot com. Ass hat.
That's right, and they're killing it. So yeah. But Google was like, it's it's you're wrong. We found this and we know it's true because it's on the internet. But they did, of course change it, so obviously they realized it was wrong. Obviously they completely undermined the core promise and highlighted the core failure of this technology. That's supposed
to save humanity and change everything it has. Like, are you encountering people being like AI is going to change everything into the future like in your day to day life.
No, I know more people who like are outsourcing stuff to AI, like to just like for their own interactions or something like I had to write something to my mom. I just it's like, Wow, that's so funny. I didn't even bother to express real emotion to my family. I'll use it.
But that poem to my mom on her birthday, fucking she was crying so hard. Its Mom's me.
Oh, fuck, what rhymes with mom? And that's what the pom that's not her name? Mom? You like Tom and You're the bomb? Love you cd ROM Okay, But no, I mean not like no one evangelizing. Everyone's kind of like who I know, it's like they play with it, or they do stupid stuff or whatever.
I was talking to a mom who's like talking about it fearfully, like with regards to like her. They're like just kind of like, I mean, who knows what's gonna what the future is going to be with AI, Like there'll be no completely unrecognizable so like we you know, worried about her child's future and blah blah blah.
Yeah, worried about worry about the state of the country.
Exactly right. I'm just like, wow, that's sure.
Oh, you're just shifting all your concern to that. What about like a livable planet more than like what the AI, because you know the AI will make continue to make the planet more uninhabitable. But anyway, you care a lot about your kids.
Yeah, yeah, anyways, realize, realize AIS, cheese Jesus lies exactly the truth. You need real eyeballs in your head to realize cheese lies. AI is not going to do it for you. Let's talk about so, you know, as Elon Musk and this Trump administration are continuing to make changes to move fast and brain, making a.
Few changes to this whole thing called democracy, little changes that are hurting people, that are making people's lives worse.
Yeah, we're coming to a you know, conflict between the fact that like there are these Republican members of Congress, all members of Congress, but particularly Republican ones who are like this is going to be great, and then you know they're inside the bubble, you know, in the team, in the Trump team, they're still like this is great, And then they're hearing from their constituents.
Yeah, I mean there's uh in the Bulwark and even CNN they're talking about just how again members of Congress, they're like, uh, I'd be lying if I said my own constituents from my Republican district where people voted for Trump in massive numbers, aren't blowing up my phone lines and sending me emails about how basically, what the fuck is going on? You can't just fuck everything up, like I still need some parts of the government to function.
We talked a little bit about it in tomorrow's episode two, but I mean, I think the main thing is that it's one of those things where they're trying to do this very delicate thing of like reassuring constituents that they are still in control and worry not what this guy is saying who's actually in control, and also not really
actively standing up either. They're like, well, some guardbrails should be in place or whatever, and then they all pivot to like, but I believe, you know, one must have done an incredible job with his companies and knows how to do It's it's very very odd. So it's one of these things where you know, the Republicans continue to just be like, yeah, I guess I'm in. I don't even honestly, I don't even. I didn't even know what
Congress was when I ran. I just knew I get to be like more, there's more eyeballs on me in my cool Twitter account. So that's what I'm here. If I didn't realize that, like, they can't do that stuff, and I'm supposed to be in charge of things like funding.
Oh shit, I didn't do the reading. That's me. That's that's what I'm supposed to do.
Wait, I'm the government.
I thought this was just good for my marketing, okay, having a podcast or so.
Okay, this, okay, this makes a lot of sense.
Now, this makes why those people were yelling at me. Okay.
Yeah. Ben Klein, who's a Republican from Virginia, wrote in a letter to his constituents that DOJI is quote an essential initiative to reduce wasteful spending, cut bureaucrat blah blah blah blah, but then goes on to pivot that quote. There's no evidence to support the allegation that Elon Musk or his team has unlawfully accessed or sees sensitive data.
Any access to citizen data is strictly regulated like every because a lot of people too, they've spent all this time also talking about privacy and like the companies DA da Da Da da that now their consistents are like, what the fuck is that guy? Specifically Ben Klein, he has over twelve thousand federal employees that live in his district. So these are significant numbers of people who are already on the receiving end of doge boy fuck fuck boy army. So yeah, will that change? I'm not sure.
When Ben kleins money by overthrown by tipping over his car the next time he's in your town and the you know, shaking him down a little bit.
I mean when you look at just sort of like the energy around a lot of these, you know, like the Press Secretary Caroline Levitt, she's just like being asked directly, yo, what's going on, like with doge or whatever, and she just starts waving around receipts and shit like let me just play this audio of her saying she's got screenshots
of waste. And again this makes no sense because she's just merely documenting like other like the spending that a previous administration has done, but they're fraud.
As for the actual receipts, we are happy to provide them, and I actually brought some today because all of you know I love to bring the receipts. We have contracts upon contracts that we can send and provide this information to you. Let me be very clear, we are not trying to hide anything. We have been incredibly transparent and we will continue to be. It's our screenshots of contracts
that those found across our government. Oh my god, this is a DEI contract thirty six thousand dollars for US Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Thirty six thousand Dollarsly shit, go on fucking smoking gun.
Policies and is America first agenda. This is a three point four million dollar contract a Council for Inclusive Innovation at the US Patent and Trademark Office, Department of Commerce. Another DEI contract that DOGE identified.
Because it has the word inclusive in it.
Yeah, it's like, it's absurd. And again the logic is they're like, well, Donald Trump, like this quote goes against the President's policies. Therefore is fraud.
His fraud. But it happened before he was president. It doesn't interesting, Derek.
It's so like again, it is so opaque despite their constant Sure, this is the most transparent process we've ever had.
How would we be more transparent? We printed out in black like white these screen caps completely without any context.
Here up in front of Can I see it? Okay, just really quick though, one, two, three, Okay, I gotta take it away. What the was that?
It looked like he was like waving them around and was gone. It's his like big stack of papers all over again. Remember when he used to Dolly where he would like come out and be like, look at all this, Look at all these papers. This is a this is all the stuff.
They are not doing that. He is completely reorienting the entire federal government for completely nefarious purposes. And they're doing it again. And they're thinking, I mean, I'm sure there are plenty of people just like, yeah, man, get rid of the woke stuff. But guess what the fucking the title wave is going to hit everybody at a certain point with this shit.
But hey, thirty four thou stopping a thirty four thousand dollars contract that you disagree with on you know, on grounds of because we're racist. Is not what seems to be happening here. What seems to be happening here is there dismantling the ability of the government to do its job. Do any people in need?
Yeah, and basically anything that prevents the wealthy and greedy to continue to be wealthy and greedy, that's gone.
Yeah, it's gone. Oh yeah, and you know what they're good at, being wealthy and greedy and finding ways to fuck people over so they can get more money. Did you see U COVID nineteen? Do you see that one?
I think I missed that one.
They made a lot of money. It made a lot of money in that Yeah, it's on Max. I know, nobody makes sense. It's on Apple, so they didn't really promote it. But it's actually pretty pretty wild.
I got COVID seventeen though. That was cool.
Yeah, that sounds good. Let's take a quick break, we'll come back. We'll talk about inflation's we'll be right back. And we're back. We're back, and inflation is up. And I think we all know who to blame on that one. Thanks to that President Biden.
Oh huh, oh, we're doing that again.
Yeah, yeah, he did it. Yeah, did you hear about like he went to Hollyweird after his thing ended, and who knows what he was getting up to out.
There, he was doing inflation to us over there, he's doing inflation.
Man. So it rose again. It was the fastest pace since August twenty twenty three. This time. Economists weren't expecting it at all. They thought that we would barely have any change from December since that had been the trend for a while. And economists, who I'm not a huge we're not usually big fans, but even they seem to be saying this is caused by quote, uncertainty from Trump's tariff threats and the skyrocketing costs of goods and primarily rent. Hmm, yeah, route.
Went up thirty percent. They made up thirty percent of that increase. Yeah, that is wild again for someone who rode in on the I loan can fix inflation and on day one answer questions about this shit anymore.
Yeah, So he quickly blamed it on Biden. He dropped the Biden inflation up on a truth social this morning, and yeah, I don't know it, just it feels like this is we know that inflation, Like, at least my theory is inflation is caused by the fact that corporations can do whatever they want today are the only ones who have any strength and like bargaining power within the US government, and the US government does not represent people, and corporations have figured out that they can keep increasing
their profits by raising prices whether they need to or not, and nobody's going to do shit about it, and nobody's going to, you know, push back on monopolies. So in many cases, competition isn't going to do shit about it, and we're seeing I think some people I think the theory of the case, at least partially for why people were like, Okay, he says he's going to be an authoritarianism,
let's see what that looks like. Is people's try, you know, beyond all the racism and the obvious reasons we've talked about for why people voted for Trump. I think some people were probably like, well, he will like do stuff, and people seem to listen to him sometimes because he is a dictator, is who everybody feels the need to kiss the ass of. And so I think maybe some people are like, maybe he can fix inflation. Maybe is the one thing that can stop inflation, because like he's
you know, Joe Biden. Can't nobody listens to a Democratic president because the Democratic Party is in the business of keeping the machine operating as it currently does. So maybe Trump will come in and just be like, knock that shit off, like kind of what he'd supposedly did with Israel, you know, where it's just like, well he said no and they kind of listened, and we're just first of all, that's not actually what happened with Israel, but that's also
not going to happen here. It seems like the whole party is just basically a kleptocracy of the richest people just breaking the system as fast as possible to get as much money as possible, and therefore, like what the like, they seem so far from pushing back on corporate like raising of prices. It seems like it couldn't be the furthest.
Funding happen at all. It's not going to happen on it, and I'm sure Maga will just like all the people who the voters will just end up being like, you know, eggs are fucking woke. Actually I don't need to eat
a fucking egg. They're overpriced and woke, and I don't need milk and I don't need electric Like that's I mean, you'd think that's one version of how this momentum carries over, like ideologically to people when like their material conditions are absolutely in the fucking basement, they'll just be like, actually, no, it's good that I have no financial recourse to anything
at this point. But I don't know. I mean, like, at a certain level, I think the reason why Americans are able to ignore so much of like the hardship around the country and abroad is because there is a lot of material comfort for many American people, not everyone clearly, because they're such an income gap and inequality gap. But like, I think the people who felt comfortable starting to feel uncomfortable,
maybe that might just shake them a bit. Rather than maybe being like Trump needs to get out, they'll be like, Trump, do something, come on, no, please pay no fine. Because I think as long as like they keep terrorizing like sort of these ideals that they think, like liberal people hold so closely to them, that might be enough. But I don't know, it is it is getting a little bit like they're they're walking the rope is becoming tighter and tighter that they're.
Walking yeah, I don't. I don't know how it's going to work out in the future. Like it seems like, you know, if we're getting closer and closer to some sort of you know, people's revolution or like uprising, like this administration doesn't seem to be in any position to put the brakes on that, and in fact, they seem to be you know, underlining it more and more and creating crises that are going to make it more and more likely.
We'll have to wait and see. We'll wait and see for the thrilling conclusion of America.
That's right. The new Captain America movie is dropping this weekend, and the reviews are in and they are made in the forties on Metacritic. We know some people who went and saw it and said that it is more of a continuation of the two thousand and eight Hulk movie than a new Captain America movie. Hulk movie is like for a while, was like known as like, oh, the one that nobody saw, and we had to like reboot that character and not have Edward Norton and instead have
you know, Mark Marky Ruffs. So I don't know they're targeting ninety six million. I don't know man that seems that seems high. I would like from the moment I saw this, they like something about the thing of just like the pitch seems to be Harrison Ford, but he's Red Hulk now, so like there's a Hulk, but he's different hulk like that. I don't know that that like
really resonates. And then there's the of you know, Black Captain America, which could be cool, but it doesn't seem like how they're selling it.
Wait, so Harrison Ford is the Red Hulk.
Harrison Ford is president, Okay, he gets access to Red hulkness and Red hulks out in the trailer, and then he's fighting Anthony Mackie.
As a giant, angry white guy fight a black guy.
Yeah, yeah, that's like.
What they're okay. And then there's is the massad agent still and I remember that was like the first thing when they were like and we're like, wow, y'all are really also putting a massade?
They fixed that, okay, So they she's still is Raelly, but now she's part of the Black Widow Program and now works for the US government. So she's an Israeli assassin who works closely with the White House. So they fixed it, okay, Gret great, great, great, Okay. I mean
that's why they're demonstrators outside of the premiere. Yeah, there were protesters at the premiere being like, I don't know, this seems bad, guys having an Israeli superhero who has close ties to the you know, military industrial complex within the movie feeling it also feels like a weird time to be having fun with that concept.
Yeah, no, seriously, And also to know, like when this character originally appears, like the Hulk was kind of like at odds with them too, Yeah, being like you don't acknowledge people human right and now and now books, Yeah, in the comic book, and I like how the people are like, well, no, we didn't change it because of like the backlash. We change it because like it looked like some of the projections for opening weekend looked a
little bit different. I don't know how to do with the backlag, but that's what we're doing ninety six million. I'm gonna take the under on this.
I'm taking under as well. I'm a hard under lock it in.
This, But I don't know this will be telling because it's like how much like how willing are we to lower our standards in pursuit of a distraction. I think that's really what's gonna it's gonna be. I don't think it's gonna do well because the movie is great. I think it's more gonna be a function of people like bro, I just need to go see some ship like and pretend it's like twenty fucking sixteen.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean the last Marvel movie that came out. I don't know if it was the last, but obviously Deadpool Versus Wolverine was a massive hit, so I could be way off here. I just I don't know. It's something about this one. Like when I saw the trailer, I was like, this kind of looks like shit, Like it doesn't look that cool.
Well, then there's like the other one. Fucking wasn't it Craven.
Or some shit? Oh was that Marvel.
Raven the Hunter?
That's a that's a Marvel that's a Marvel joint, right, it's a Marvel character, but it's a Sony movie, right yeah, yeah.
But I'm saying like, yeah, yeah, it's you know whatever, y'all. There's there's old Watch the old Ninja Turtles cartoon. You know what I mean? A distraction shot a shot. Damn we got sixteen ship.
Trailer by the way, Oh yeah, I see that.
I did you know Tim?
You know I got the Google alert for Tim Robinson Tim Robinson twenty four movie.
But yeah, directed by Andrew Deyong.
So remind me who's Andrew Deyong.
I saw he's a director and he's directed a ton of stuff, Like I think he's directed some episodes of like Shrill. He definitely directed episodes of like Penn fifteen. He's he's around as a comedy.
Director, really funny comedy director.
Yeah, I worked with like Kate Berlant. They're just like he's he's around like funny stuff. But now like he did you know Dave, Like he's done funny shows and now this is like his directorial debut. I think he also wrote the film.
Yeah, Dave, that was also really good, that show yeah, with Kevin Klein.
But yeah, he's the writer director of this one. And I think from my understanding, this was like a twenty four like acquired it rather than developed it. So this is like, you know, seemingly pure form of artistic expression from Andrew Deyong and then everybody involved. So it looks great, like Tim Robinson is like perfect for this fucking role of a guy who gets like man dumped.
Yeah, exactly, like a feature length I think you should leave sketch. Yeah, but like obviously the pacing is not gonna be that just breakneck joke, joke joke. It's it feels like it's a little bit more like tuned to like Cable Guy, which also really good.
That like friend support group where they start singing.
Yeah, the voice the trailer is awesome.
Check four of the trailer.
Yeah, that is a thing like it's talking about. So it's like these guys who are like hanging out, having some bruise and just being like vulnerable with each other, and like that's the thing like men's groups and like in particular in like the Christian evangelical community. Like, first of all, I think it's great, like the idea of like men being able to like go and like talk openly and be vulnerable. I'm not like here to be in any way, but I.
Think so many dudes meet they're going to do that and then you just get fucked up and then.
Yeah, yeah, yeah we did cocaine. I'm in my forties.
Yeah, but I needed to do the cocaine to like be able to kind of get a little vulnerable.
That's right.
Then I monologued. I did a coke monologue for forty five minutes about my life.
The Hulk movie is in the forties on Metacritic. This one has only five reviews in but it premiered at Toronto International Film Festival and the people who saw it is at eighty four percent metascore, so it might might just be good. Yeah. Anyways, that's something to look forward to. If civilization doesn't collapse by then, we'll see. Yeah, and it won't. That's not on. It's easy to just be like, oh god, everything's going to fall apart and will be good.
But it's not going to fall apart. It's going to keep being shitty in the same way.
So yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyways, those are some of the things that are trending on this Wednesday, February twelfth. We are back tomorrow with a whole last episode of the show. Until then, be kind to each other, be kind to yourselves, get the vaccine, get your flu shots, don't do nothing about white supremacy, and we will talk to you all tomorrow.
Bye bye.
