    Proper Replika
    Feb 19 2025

    This week on The Fool Scoop, Alan, Winston, and Kelso tackle everything from the surprisingly generous return policies of big box stores and the delicate (and sensitive) subject of handwritten vs. typed notes to the wild world of online trolling and the ever-expanding role of technology in our lives. They dissect the rise of AI, from smart toasters (no Cylons here, folks) and AI avatars on TikTok to the world's first Ms. AI winner. The conversation veers into philosophical territory as they discuss AI companions (like those in the Replika app), the ethical implications of AI taking creative jobs, and the very nature of sentience vs. sapience, even touching on the potential for AI to experience pain and stress. Join the crew for this hilarious and thought-provoking exploration of the increasingly blurry lines between human and machine.
