Mmm, the wonderous food known as cheese...this curdled treat has been loved by many humans for thousands of years.  All sizes, shapes, flavors, and a staple for many countries around the world.   Throughout history, cheese has played a part somewhere, somehow, either gifted, or eaten for much needed battle or travel calories!!!  The power of cheese!  From grilled cheese sandwiches, to a snack kept in a Roman Soldiers pocket for a quick snack...hmm, why don't you see that in the movies, soldier whips out a piece of cheese during combat...wait...I need cheese!!!   Well, unfortunately, for Roman Emperor Antoninus Pius...his love for cheese went far beyond the normal human love of cheese...in fact, he love it so much it killed him!  He died from eating too much cheese...sad to know that such a thing exists, but sadly it does.  Pius would be named one of the good "5" Emperor's of Rome - lover of cheese, and kept peace for many years.     So, consider this episode a public service announcement, watch your cheese consumption kids!!!   Hope you enjoy this episode, everyone have an awesome week this week!!!   Check us out at https://www.detectiverysom.com/  Follow us on X (@chuck_detective), Instagram (chuck_detective) or TikTok (@DetectiverySOM)  Show Notes:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antoninus_Pius  https://soyummy.com/soyummy/the-roman-emperor-said-to-have-died-from-a-cheese-overdose/  https://historyfacts.com/world-history/fact/roman-emperor-died-from-eating-cheese/  Support the show

    The Human Fly

    AI: Is It the End of Humanity?

    Send us Fan Mail The pendulum is swinging...where will it stop, discovery or destruction!   In this episode we discuss the discovery, the curiosity, responsibility, and ability of AI itself, and the people behind it.  Where will it all lead...nobody truly knows.  But, does AI know?  AI is not new, it has been a part of all of our lives for a very long time...as they say, "The cat's out of the bag now!"    If you are behind on the whole AI (Artificial Intelligence) world, we got you covered. It seems a lot has happened in the last 5 years surrounding AI...it seems to be getting smarter and we are getting stupider.  It learns our mistakes, as well as it's own, however, in most cases, it learns from it's mistakes, but we (humans) do not always learn from our mistakes until it is too late.     Hope you enjoy the show!!!!   Check us out at https://www.detectiverysom.com/  Grab yourself some Detectivery State of Mind Merchandise from our Etsy storefront, can get there from the link on our website, or from the link at the bottom of this show page "Support the Show"!  Thank you!   30% Off DSOM Merch SALE COMING SOON!!!!!
