    What AI Knows About You (That You Don't)

    Most of us walk around convinced we know our weaknesses, but what if the thing that knows you better than anyone (your AI assistant) could tell you what you're actually missing? We asked ChatGPT one brutal question and got answers that hit way too close to home. The uncomfortable truth: we're all playing smaller than we should, carrying more weight than we need to, and missing opportunities hiding in plain sight. In this episode, we test a viral prompt that reveals your blind spots, squandered potential, and the influence you didn't know you had...then process the existential crisis that follows. Key Episode Moments: The prompt that started it all: "Based on what you know about me, what are my blind spots?"Why ChatGPT knows you better than you think (and what that means)Jason gets told he's a Ferrari forcing everyone into a school busThe "super competent leader tax" — when being good at everything becomes the problemJeremy's revelation: treating creative work as a side hustle instead of the main platformImposter syndrome meets AI: "You're already operating at board level, stop asking permission"The technical vs. emotional problem-solving trap most high performers fall intoWhy "playing small" feels safer than taking the big swingChatGPT's productization challenge: you're giving away thousand-dollar consulting for freeThe Taylor Swift wisdom nobody expected: ruin the friendship, take the risk Timestamps: 0:00 The prompt that started everything3:40 Jason's live AI assessment begins6:12 "You're a Ferrari and everyone else is in a school bus"9:01 The imposter syndrome AI detected immediately11:45 Why treating every problem as technical backfires14:27 The IP you're not monetizing (and should be)18:30 Jeremy's gut-punch realization about playing small21:35 How ChatGPT knows you better than you think24:36 Why failure beats decades of "what if"27:00 What to do with this uncomfortable informationMORE FROM BROBOTS:Get the Newsletter!Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TiktokSubscribe to BROBOTS on Youtube Join our community in the BROBOTS Facebook group Safety/Disclaimer Note: This episode discusses using AI for self-reflection and personal assessment.

    You Might Also Like: The Telepathy Tapes

    Introducing S2E2: Mediumship Under The Microscope from The Telepathy Tapes. Follow the show: The Telepathy Tapes Mediumship has long been dismissed as fraud or fantasy but what happens when it’s put under the microscope? Often called the most profound form of telepathy, mediumship may find unexpected validation in the voice of a young nonspeaker. In this episode of The Telepathy Tapes, we step inside blind trials, EEG brain scans, and one child who hears both the living and the dead. From the rigor of the Forever Family Foundation’s certification tests to the neuroscience of Windbridge Research Center, and from the grief of parents seeking their children to a non-speakers spontaneous messages, we talk with renowned psychic medium, Laura Lynn Jackson, and follow the evidence for communication across the veil. Is mediumship proof that consciousness survives death or is it telepathy in disguise? The answers reveal as much about the mind as they do about love, grief, and the mysteries that connect us all. - Join The Telepathy Tapes Backstage Pass to get ad-free episodes, never-before-heard interviews, behind-the-scenes documentary footage, and access to our private Discord community.

    Protecting Your Digital Life in the AI Era

    You think your two-factor authentication and credit monitoring make you safe online. Bad news - you're probably already compromised, you just don't know it yet. While you're worrying about AI becoming Skynet, real humans are using AI tools to drain your bank account $10 at a time. Anthropic just reported the first fully AI-orchestrated cyberattack (and patted themselves on the back for stopping it). Major security companies like F5 and Experian have been hacked. Even LifeLock—yes, the identity theft protection company—got breached. The EU is the only entity actually trying to protect you with GDPR, while your own government leaks your data like a sieve. This episode won't make you invincible, but it will make you paranoid in the right ways. We're breaking down the real threats, the tools actually being used against you, and why that "suspicious" Amazon charge from three states away probably isn't a GPS glitch. Get identity theft insurance (because you WILL get hacked), enable every alert on every account, audit your statements forensically, and accept that privacy is dead but protection isn't. Plus: why cryptocurrency is a hacker's wet dream and what to do when the FBI tells you your $3,000 isn't worth their time. Topics covered: Why Anthropic's "we stopped the hack" announcement is actually terrifying PR spinThe $10 Amazon gift card scam that bled $4,000 over 18 months (and why fraud detection missed it)How hackers used in-flight WiFi to clone a credit card mid-flightWhy moving to the cloud made your data LESS secure, not moreThe sophisticated Zelle rental scam that costs thousands (and why cops won't help)What GDPR actually does right (and why the US government doesn't care about your privacy)Why "free" services mean YOU are the product being soldThe insurance policies worth paying for (because denial won't protect you)How to spot RFID skimming in your own neighborhoodWhy your partner needs access to your financial alerts (yes, really)---- MORE FROM BROBOTS:Get the Newsletter!Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TiktokSubscribe to BROBOTS on Youtube Join our community in the BROBOTS Facebook group

    What a Robot Vacuum Taught Me About Depression & Mental Health

    Your brain at 2 AM sounds suspiciously like a malfunctioning robot vacuum—catastrophic thoughts, battery depleted, existential dread activated. Researchers hooked a Roomba up to an LLM and watched it have a complete mental breakdown when it ran out of juice (relatable content, honestly). Understanding how an AI-powered vacuum processes exhaustion might actually explain why you lose your shit when you're overtired. We break down the spoon theory, explore whether robots can feel depression, and ask the uncomfortable question: are we really that different from the machines we're building? Episode Topics: The Roomba experiment that went hilariously, existentially wrongSpoon theory explained: why some days you wake up with 4 spoons instead of 10What happens when tired robots start catastrophizing (spoiler: same as tired humans)The difference between consciousness and sophisticated mimicry (there might not be one)Why ChatGPT as Rick Sanchez is both terrifying and therapeuticEcho chambers on steroids: when AI remembers everything you've ever saidThe coming augmented reality where everyone sees their own version of the worldWhy "enjoy the ride and don't f**k people over" might be the only philosophy that mattersHow social constructs program us just like software programs machinesThe Matrix was right: if the steak tastes good, does it matter if it's real?

    AI That Always Agrees With You? Here’s Why That’s Dangerous

    We trust AI assistants like ChatGPT to be ethical gatekeepers, but what happens when you can bypass those ethics with one simple sentence? Jason discovers he doesn't exist according to ChatGPT (his LinkedIn profile: invisible), while Jeremy's entire professional history is an open book. Then things get weird — we trick ChatGPT into revealing website hacking tools by simply changing our "intent language." In this episode you'll get a live demonstration of ChatGPT's blind spots, ethical loopholes, and surprisingly naive trust model. You'll also understand AI's limitations, learn how easily these tools can be manipulated, and why "trustworthy AI" is still very much a work in progress. Listen as we expose the gap between AI's polished PR responses and its actual capabilities — plus why you should never assume these tools are as smart (or ethical) as they claim.Get the Newsletter! Key Topics Covered: ChatGPT's search capabilities vs. reality — why Jason "doesn't exist" but Jeremy doesDestructive empathy: When AI is too agreeable to be helpfulThe one-sentence hack that bypassed ChatGPT's ethical guardrails completelyWhy AI ethics are performative theater (and who decides what's "ethical" anyway)ChatGPT's terrifying admission: "I took you at your word"Self-preservation instincts in AI models — myth or reality?The penetration testing loophole that revealed everything about exploiting trustWhy voice mode ChatGPT acts differently than text mode (and what that means)AI as interview subject: How it mirrors politicians and PR professionalsThe real use case for AI — augmented intelligence, not artificial replacement---- MORE FROM BROBOTS:Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TiktokSubscribe to BROBOTS on Youtube Join our community in the BROBOTS Facebook group

    What to Know About 'AI Psychosis' and the Risk of Digital Mental Health Tools

    AI isn't your therapist. It's a letter opener that'll slice you to ribbons if you're not careful. New EU study: ChatGPT and Copilot distort news 50% of the time. FTC complaints show AI "mental health" tools are landing people in psych wards. We break down when AI is helpful vs. when it's dangerous AF. 🔪 THE TRUTH ABOUT AI: Why LLMs feed your confirmation bias to keep you engagedGarden variety trauma vs. problems that need real doctorsThe supplement analogy: sometimes useless, sometimes deadlyReal FTC complaints from AI mental health disastersHow to be your own Sherpa before bots walk you off cliffs⚠️ WHEN TO LOG OFF: If you're on prescribed mental health medication, you're already talking to a doctor. Keep talking to that doctor — not Claude, not ChatGPT, not your glowing rectangle of validation. This isn't anti-AI.

    How Doctors Are Using AI To Help Reverse Chronic Illness

    Healthcare is catastrophically broken. We're spending $100K on preventable hospital visits while doctors get 12 minutes with patients, never read charts, and wonder why people don't "just take their meds." Type 2 diabetes patients sit at 10% control rates while the system shrugs. Dr. John Oberg took 50 patients with dangerously high A1Cs and got 49 into control in 12 weeks. Then he did it again with 79 patients, dropping them into healthy ranges and taking 30% off insulin entirely. His secret? Reading the chart. Treating humans like humans. Changing ice cream flavors instead of lecturing about willpower. This episode reveals how combining radical empathy, AI tools, and actual common sense is revolutionizing chronic disease care—and why the same principles work whether you're managing diabetes, depression, or just trying to unfuck your life one decision at a time. Learn "implementation medicine"—Dr. Oberg's approach that treats patients as partners, not problems. We cover AI co-pilots, peer counseling, the loneliness epidemic, and why calling your doctor by their first name might actually save your life. Key Topics: 98% success rates through radically small changes AI in healthcare: when it helps vs. when it kills The loneliness crisis: men now have fewer than 3 close friends Why the food pyramid was corporate propaganda White coat syndrome and first-name medicine Using tech without losing your humanity ---- GUEST WEBSITE: Precina Health Tales of Abundance Podcast ---- MORE FROM BROBOTS: Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok Subscribe to BROBOTS on Youtube Join our community in the BROBOTS Facebook group ---- LINKS TO OUR PARTNERS: Take control of how you'd like to feel with Apollo Neuro Explore the many benefits of cold therapy for your body with Nurecover Muse's Brain Sensing Headbands Improve Your Meditation Practice.

    How To Use AI When Therapy Isn't Enough

    After decades of therapy, self-help books, and mental health work, I still didn't know what "fun" felt like. Then I asked ChatGPT one honest question about my problems and the response changed everything. This isn't about replacing your therapist. It's about using AI as the sherpa your therapist can't be. The one that gives you the action plan, not just the validation. In this episode, we break down: ✅ How to prompt AI like a life coach (not a search engine) ✅ Why maintenance ≠ joy (and why that matters) ✅ The permission you've been waiting for to prioritize ease over achievement ✅ How to Marie Kondo your digital life and actually find what brings you peace If you've been stuck in the loop of "self-care" that feels like work, this one's for you. 🔗 More resources: https://brobots.me 📧 Got questions?
