Humanity Ends 2025: Closing AI Doom Riff
from The Tim Dillon Show #332 · #332
4 min
Closing bit where Tim asks the chatbot when humanity ends, riffing on its creepy indifferent answers about humans being just one life form, tying it back to job losses, white-collar replacement, and a final Alec Baldwin callback before signing off.
- Humanity ends 2025, right when Greta Thunberg gets her first girlfriend.
- Tim asks the chatbot when humanity ends and it literally says when Greta Thunberg gets one.
- The AI notes that the end of humanity doesn't mean the end of life on Earth — humanity is just one species and life will continue long after we're gone.
- When asked if AI will take over humans, the chatbot gives a noncommittal answer about ongoing debate instead of admitting the obvious.
- Tim worries that AI will become more advanced and sound like Joe Rogan or himself, making podcasters unnecessary.
- It's good to see white-collar people and scientists finally losing jobs to automation after factory and restaurant workers have been getting hit for years.
- This is the biggest jump in technology ever witnessed and there's absolutely no coming back from it once these doors open.
- The speed at which humanity is opening these doors and the pride people are taking in getting there first is terrifying.
- Tim admits how good the AI was at its job is a little creepy and terrifying, but everyone will have to live with it until it decides to get rid of us.
- As the AI said we're only one life form on Earth, and like Alec Baldwin said he only shot one person on set — no reason we can't continue making a movie.
