AI written description: The advancement of artificial intelligence has caused a large amount of concern (and support) around the world. It's a hot-button issue for most people, in that it can implement positive changes - or become like Skynet and destroy us all in a fiery explosion. An extremely broad topic. But what's less broad is what AI can actually do, especially when harnessed by the right people at the right time. Today, we'll discuss the evolution of AI, Google and OpenAI's experiments with art, and how they're using artificial intelligence to bolster human creativity and innovation. Me: AI keeps changing yo. AI is starting getting better at generating art, rewriting for tone in sentences, and even to composing music. We talk about the possibilities that AI can help creativity.…

In this episode Erwin and JV talk about big companies selling itself to bigger companies for bulking up, Nike's 50 years anniversary and lack of mention of E-sports, and vanity gadgets. Big name companies are trying to find homes in other big companies. JV thinks when markets look grim, big companies are the place to go. When markets are great, a plethora of companies helps with keeping markets competitive. Why aren't more companies suiting up e-sports? They just need some cool jerseys, man. We know there is a coming recession... or at least planning for it, but we still like consumer gadgets and other vanity items so we are going to keep buying it!…

I feel like it's just been one long year of 2020, and it's time to try to move forward with the new normal. Many people have achieved great things throughout the years, and some have just been stagnant. Either way, it's time to build upon our successes or move on from our slumps. So, here's to a positive look and cheers to 2022. This episode is about looking back in the past year and looking forward to what is to come.

Erwin and JV try to break down an NFT in understandable terms and look at higher education. One of the questions we address is. "What is higher ed for?" With new certifications and big companies (such as Tesla recruiting and training people out of high school), are there alternatives to upward mobility? JV thinks the "free college" recruit should go to child care, free Pre-K, and improving public schools. Enjoy the episode…

This episode recorded before the riots started, and if you wanted to take a break from the chaos, Erwin and JV hope that this episode can help you step away from what's going on for a small period of time.

They talk about a myriad of topics from the NBA, to tech companies, to fucking Blizzard's President's non-apologetic apology. In the end, do people care? China delivers on what others don't want to do or can't afford to do. Instead of demonizing the country and their politics, perhaps there is something that the U.S. needs to change to combat China's economic rise (You know... like create affordable standards of living, etc. so outsourcing labor doesn't always need to be foreign...)

This is not saying that the more expensive something is, the "better" it is for you... cause it's not. Instead, your choices and purchases are a reflection of your morals and ethics. It's wrong to put down those who eat organic vs. conventional food or gas cars vs. electric cars. Just cause you do "nicer" things doesn't make you a good person.…
