    We Need to talk About Grok Ft. Maggie Harrison Dupré

    It's estimated that Grok, Elon Musk's chatbot formerly known as "MechaHitler" is now generating upwards of thousands of images of CSAM a day. While other countries are moving to outright ban it, Elon Musk is shrugging it off, his friends like Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney are rallying to his side, and the Trump administration, perhaps unsurprisingly, is silent. We brought on journalist Maggie Harrison Dupré to discuss her article on the subject and more.

    Preview: The Brainrot Economy Ft. Hussein Kesvani

    We're back from our holiday break, thank you for sticking with us. More to come very soon, in the meantime, you can find the remainder of this episode at www.Patreon.com/KillTheComputer -- Hussein Kesvani, freelance journalist, co-host of Trash Future and 10k Posts, joins us for our first ep of the year. In it, we borrow a term from our friend Ed Zitron known as "The Rot Economy". Instead of applying the theory to products and services, we ask what happens to the human brain when companies know they're harming their users but still insist upon a growth-at-all-cost mentality. Consider this the first part in an ongoing arc exploring this topic. Hussein can be found at: https://trashfuture.co.uk/

    Unlocked: This Truth Has Been Deleted Ft. Jordan Uhl

    We take a trip down memory lane and discuss the history of alt-tech microblogging platforms like Parler, Gettr, Gab etc that, while failing, ultimately served to pave the way for Trump's Truth Social and Elon Musk's "X". As usual, along the way we discover some interesting critters. Note: this episode was originally recorded on September 29th. We're unlocking it because we may not be releasing another episode on the main feed before the end of the year. Thank you for being with us, we hope you have a wonderful New Years and look forward to our best work coming in 2026! Follow Jordan: https://x.com/JordanUhl
