the reason that I am alive by Boris Vian
the reason that I am alive
the reason that I am alive
for the tanned leg
of a blonde woman
propped against the wall
beneath the round sun
for the billowing sails
of a sleek schooner
at the mouth of the harbor
the iced coffee sipped through a straw
for the caress of sand
gazing at the watery deeps
turning so blue
descending into the deeps
with the fish
the tranquil fish
they calm the bottom of the ocean
fly above the seaweed hair
like slow birds
like blue birds
the reason that I am alive
because it is beautiful
I asked Photoshop to create an image of Artificial Intelligence eating the Earth. It gave me R2-D2 with spindly legs holding a globe. Well-done.
This episode is about when I was researching New Year's Eve celebrations in San Francisco in the 1930s and 1940s. Google Gemini made up a store I spent hours researching trying to find a primary source, like a newspaper article. I pressed Gemini for attribution and it gave me fake links. It even gave me an actual picture and lied about what was going on in the picture.
AI is bullshit.
One of the most amazing theatrical productions I've ever seen. Staged at an abandoned gas station in Sausalito in the summer of 1979.

How much did Waymo pay off the California public utilities commission to allow Waymo taxi cabs into San Francisco to block traffic and kill cats? And then the crypto degens move in like ghouls to create a Kit Kat meme coin. Stop the world I want to get off.
The Rich are just trying to figure out how to take even more and leave us less. And it’s all a scam. AI is bullshit as are their robots and Robo taxis. The image with this podcast is where somebody apparently accidentally set fire to a Waymo taxi cab. I do not advocate for such disregard for safety measures.
I wanted to share this article. I read on medium.com. As a favor to my listeners, I added my own six sentences that I think would work way better than the ones in the article. You’re welcome.
It’s available at knoxbronson.bandcamp.com right now for free if you want. On streaming services Monday the 10th. It’s beautiful, and I love every minute of it, I hope you will too.
I finally asked ChatGPT how to get great hotdog like Casper’s hotdog at home. It said you have to buy Casper’s hotdog in the store. Lo and behold I did and they are fantastic. The downside is I can’t eat them every day apparently. Like all processed foods, they should be eaten in moderation. Oh well, they’re delicious! I am not receiving any money for this recommendation. however, if Casper’s wants to reach out and hire me to be a spokesperson, I am happy to do so.
