Speaker 1: On Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 2: Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex and Frooms catch
Speaker 2: up podcast, Happy Monday. Oh my god. Today we chatted
Speaker 2: about we really need to ask Mickey to get the
Speaker 2: grab of what I mean. Oh my god, I just took.
Speaker 1: Okay, can fine people have some kind of like audio recognition?
Speaker 1: AI think they need it just for that use to them.
Speaker 2: Today we're talking about Daniel Ricardo erotic fan fiction. I'm
Speaker 2: not adding fuels to the fire. We're just talking about
Speaker 2: it more on a conceptual level. And also Braxton Hicks contractions.
Speaker 1: Did I have them? Yes?
Speaker 2: Allegedly it no, allegedly. Let's go Flex and Rooms On Kata.
Speaker 1: We have to discuss ghosting in a fresh and fun
Speaker 1: way because it's been spoken about to death. As someone
Speaker 1: who has said on record before they are pro ghosting,
Speaker 1: it's been a controversial take. I've elaborated far too many
Speaker 1: times to get into it currently, but my point is
Speaker 1: that often people aren't open communicators anyway, and so to
Speaker 1: tell them the reasons why you don't want to beat
Speaker 1: it be with them usually start a second wave of conversation.
Speaker 1: I don't want to have Granted, I've revised my efforts
Speaker 1: and I'm into soft ghosting, which is just weaning somebody
Speaker 1: off you delicately. But it came across as TikTok from
Speaker 1: a creator called quit Underscore dating Underscore Idiots, who has
Speaker 1: supplied us with four tried and tested texts you can
Speaker 1: send without ghosting. I think it's a first step. I
Speaker 1: don't know, though, because part of me thinks everyone's like,
Speaker 1: let's be authentic. Let's be authentic. What's less authentic than
Speaker 1: copying and pasting text messages that somebody else has prepared
Speaker 1: so you can send them to the next person you
Speaker 1: want to ghost.
Speaker 2: I don't know you're really coming for the authenticity laughter.
Speaker 1: It's boring anyway. The first one if you want to
Speaker 1: cancel a date. Hey, I know this is not a
Speaker 1: great message to send or receive, especially given the timing,
Speaker 1: But as tomorrow approaches, I've realized I'm not really feeling
Speaker 1: up to our meat. I've enjoyed chatting to you, and
Speaker 1: you seem like a really decent guy, so I don't
Speaker 1: want to mess you about by giving you a lame excuse.
Speaker 1: I hope you understand hate it. The next one you
Speaker 1: like them, but they're noncommittal. Hey, it's been fun getting
Speaker 1: to know you over these past months, but I get
Speaker 1: the sense we're not on the same page in terms
Speaker 1: of what we're wanting. I want a man who wants
Speaker 1: a relationship with me, and I don't think that's you.
Speaker 1: No hard feelings, take care and all the best with everything,
Speaker 1: babes not me. Literally, yes, I feel like, wait, this
Speaker 1: one's so sorry everyone, I'm reading our first text messages.
Speaker 2: How crazy is that? That?
Speaker 1: Literally?
Speaker 2: Like that is pretty much verbat of mine.
Speaker 1: This is to be a woman, to be a woman.
Speaker 2: Guys.
Speaker 1: It worked, It also worked, but it yeah, have redacted
Speaker 1: the third one. Connections fizzled out. Hey, it seems our
Speaker 1: conversation has reached its natural conclusion. But I wanted to
Speaker 1: say goodbye before disappearing. I've enjoyed chatting with you. Good
Speaker 1: luck and all the best.
Speaker 2: That's nice.
Speaker 1: That's my favorite thus far. I could change a few
Speaker 1: words here and there, but add your flavor to these ones.
Speaker 1: Such your flavor and this is if you're not feeling
Speaker 1: a post date, Hey, I've really we're getting to know
Speaker 1: you a little. Unfortunately, I don't think we've been compatible
Speaker 1: long term, and I don't want to waste either our
Speaker 1: time exploring is connection further all the best with everything,
Speaker 1: and good luck on your quest. The worst one, absolutely,
Speaker 1: good luck on your quest. I like that.
Speaker 2: Is this a game to you? It's very much like
Speaker 2: ruin Escape coded. Absolutely, I think i'd like that last one.
Speaker 2: I think the ending is a bit like it's a
Speaker 2: little bit condescending in part.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, However, it's a two paragraph text. We meet in parts.
Speaker 2: Honestly, like when you're doing dating text, every single word counts.
Speaker 2: So that's an essay in my opinion, I hope that.
Speaker 1: Works for someone. I think I'm making the right step
Speaker 1: by disseminating this information.
Speaker 2: I think we should put on our Instagram like a
Speaker 2: carousel of each one of those who people can refer
Speaker 2: back to it. Let's ask our social media icons. As
Speaker 2: the years go on, or rather the months or the weeks,
Speaker 2: us two girlies become more and more invested in sports.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you're definitely flex leading the chart.
Speaker 1: I've made some developments. Everyone, Rugby, Rugby everyone, The Rugby
Speaker 1: Bold Cup is happening in real time, and I'm telling
Speaker 1: you I want to put this on record as of today,
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth of September, and say it's the most
Speaker 1: rubin in of all the sports I've watched, that's far.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is about it.
Speaker 2: I've never watched it, but I have reservations, like it's
Speaker 2: not exciting to me. Yeah, I don't like the idea
Speaker 2: of people running into each other.
Speaker 1: It happened in all sports. Soccer is way more contact
Speaker 1: based than I really thought it was gonna be football. Everyone,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry we digress.
Speaker 2: Anyway, Guys say just sort of say. When the Drive
Speaker 2: to Survive, like f one Netflix series came out.
Speaker 1: I missed that.
Speaker 2: I know that was a moment. I didn't watch it,
Speaker 2: but everyone's talking about Daniel Ricardo, Daniel Riccardo. Of course,
Speaker 2: I became naturally a massive fan of Daniel Ricardo, of
Speaker 2: his work.
Speaker 1: Of course, there was just this.
Speaker 2: Funny nature about Daniel Ricardo that really piqued my interests.
Speaker 2: I find him very funny, Like you know the people
Speaker 2: that just do something.
Speaker 1: You're like, it's that classic hot and quirky combo. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but when you get it, you get it.
Speaker 2: It's insane. Anyway, I came across this article in foxsports
Speaker 2: dot com dot au about this erotic fiction that somebody
Speaker 2: wrote about Daniel Ricardo, and it's called fire, Overtake in
Speaker 2: my mind, overtake my heart, thick Rick races for Love,
Speaker 2: so essentially thick Rick being Daniel Ricardo. The image on
Speaker 2: the front is him in a very jacked kind of
Speaker 2: like AI type. Anyway, on a podcast, he was on
Speaker 2: the one of the hosts, hold on, let me get it.
Speaker 2: So he was on a podcast with Dak Shepherd. He's
Speaker 2: like that armchair expert guy called f one with DRS podcast.
Speaker 2: Never heard of it in my life. That all sounds
Speaker 2: like gibberish.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 2: However, it is what it is. And they asked him like, oh,
Speaker 2: what do you think of this? And he thought it
Speaker 2: was a joke, but then originally no, but then he
Speaker 2: thought it was a joke, but then it came out
Speaker 2: that it is true, and he's thinking, what the hell?
Speaker 2: At least I look jacked. But it got me thinking,
Speaker 2: how would you react if somebody created an erotic fiction
Speaker 2: novel of you? Like, personally, I couldn't handle that tears
Speaker 2: of joy.
Speaker 1: Seriously, you know how hard it is to write. You're aware,
Speaker 1: you know how hard it is to write in a
Speaker 1: way that is concise but sexy, and there's like a
Speaker 1: storyline but it's based on a real person, so you
Speaker 1: really have to capture their essence and immortalize them on
Speaker 1: paper for me on a screen. I love that you
Speaker 1: would like that. I think it's the height of celebrity.
Speaker 2: Huge.
Speaker 1: I don't have fan fictions, erotic literature written about you,
Speaker 1: and you think you're a celeb. I think again.
Speaker 2: I guess like it just makes me think that people
Speaker 2: think of this person sexually, which I'd rather not know why.
Speaker 2: I don't know, is that sex shaming makes you feel uncomfortable? Hm?
Speaker 2: But what can I say to each their own I
Speaker 2: just rather would like to think that it never happened,
Speaker 2: there were more through.
Speaker 1: Me being there. I just wish they just keep it
Speaker 1: to themselves, keep it behind closed or I don't care
Speaker 1: what you do in your own homes. There are children
Speaker 1: out here and they don't need to see that going
Speaker 1: out through. That's exactly what that was giving.
Speaker 2: I like the idea of sexlessness when it comes to
Speaker 2: anything to do with me, particularly and others.
Speaker 1: Tech Time, tech Time, tech Time, it's tech time with
Speaker 1: flex and prooms on kit. Put it to the next
Speaker 1: level where we give you the best and the latest
Speaker 1: gossip in tech. As we do so well, people who
Speaker 1: aren't in the tech industry. I think it's very important
Speaker 1: that we bridge the gap between scientists and civilian I
Speaker 1: would say.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's not done well, however, on your on your healf,
Speaker 2: you bring it to the table.
Speaker 1: Well, thank you. I've been having this thought recently that
Speaker 1: our inability to tell human behavior from AI behavior is
Speaker 1: going to cause more problems than me think I spoke about.
Speaker 1: I mean, I touched briefly on Snapchat's AI glitching a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, but we've got more information about
Speaker 1: what actually went down. So Snapchat have this AI chatbot function.
Speaker 1: It's essentially this digital thing that you can talk to
Speaker 1: and it'll talk to you back, and the more you
Speaker 1: talk to it, the more it talks to you back.
Speaker 1: It's quite simple. But recently it posted a story on
Speaker 1: Snapchat of what appeared to be like a wall, so
Speaker 1: kind of like that line of demarcation between like a
Speaker 1: ceiling and a wall, so pretty like indiscernible, but that's
Speaker 1: what it was. And immediately I remember the day it happened,
Speaker 1: Josh who records who video records all of our footage
Speaker 1: came and said, did you see what the snapchat bot posted?
Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't see it, and I was like,
Speaker 1: can you show Me's like, no, it's disappeared now and
Speaker 1: the bot's not responding to anybody's comment or questions, and
Speaker 1: it's gone offline. But something's happened, and I said, okay,
Speaker 1: give me information if you can. And so what had
Speaker 1: happened was just a glitch, a simple glitch. The company
Speaker 1: came out and said they had to put the whole
Speaker 1: thing down to a temporary outage, and that's all that
Speaker 1: it was. My issue is before Snapchat came out and
Speaker 1: made a statement, no more than a day later, it
Speaker 1: immediately went viral on TikTok. People do in comparisons between
Speaker 1: a photo of their wall and a photo of what
Speaker 1: this bot took and what is the bot trying to communicate?
Speaker 1: Is it gaining sentients? Why would it say this? What
Speaker 1: time did it post? Is it trying to send us
Speaker 1: a message? And people are out here trying to decode
Speaker 1: what this bot meant, and very few said, well, maybe
Speaker 1: it was just a glitch, Maybe just wasn't meant to
Speaker 1: be there, Maybe it was an accident. And I think
Speaker 1: it's really scary that a lot of us are participating
Speaker 1: in these conversations about you know, like what's going to
Speaker 1: be the future of AI. AI is going to take over,
Speaker 1: and I think before AI takes over, we're going to
Speaker 1: give it power by trying to assign meanings to everything
Speaker 1: it does or does not do. There's this thing that
Speaker 1: AI does often it's called hallucinating, where it kind of
Speaker 1: like it's this it's this margin of error it has,
Speaker 1: Like for chat GPT it's five percent. So chat GPT
Speaker 1: is ninety five percent quote unquote accurate, and there's a
Speaker 1: five percent margin of err where it could just make
Speaker 1: stuff up. Now, five percent is a lot when it
Speaker 1: comes to all the information in the entirely galaxy, and
Speaker 1: we're relying on this bot to be on it every
Speaker 1: single time, so much so that we're not pausing to say, well,
Speaker 1: what if it's wrong, right, yeah, what if it's just wrong?
Speaker 1: And then what happens? Who cares? Because by the time
Speaker 1: we figured out that it's wrong, the narrative is, well,
Speaker 1: there was a snapchat bot and now it's getting sentience
Speaker 1: and it posted a picture of a wall, and that
Speaker 1: story we're going with. So I worry everyone are No
Speaker 1: to worry is fine because I'm down for the AI
Speaker 1: next generation. But part of what I wanted to touch
Speaker 1: on or to end with, sorry, is this concept called anthropomorphism,
Speaker 1: and it's when you attribute human characteristics to animals or objects. Right,
Speaker 1: So we see two windows and a line, and we say, oh,
Speaker 1: that the building is smiling, and that we don't check
Speaker 1: ourselves enough when we do that, when we apply human
Speaker 1: behavior to things that aren't human and so not a warning,
Speaker 1: not a cautionary tale, just something that humans do. Sometimes
Speaker 1: things are a mistake, sometimes they're a tech error. Sometimes
Speaker 1: the AI isn't sending us a secret message, but sometimes
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: And that is that is the uncertainty paradox. Yes, a
Speaker 2: word I've just made up, but I like it.
Speaker 1: I like that anyway. Good luck everyone, babes. I've been
Speaker 1: going through it so many life experiences. Right now, I'm
Speaker 1: holding down a period cramp, so siffy. Really, I cannot
Speaker 1: explain to you. I'm literally doing mental gymnastics right now.
Speaker 1: I think my eye is gonna start twitching. Alas, I
Speaker 1: had what I could only refer to as a Braxen
Speaker 1: Hicks contraction, because are the only contractions that I know of.
Speaker 1: Am I pregnant? No? Was I pregnant when this happened. No,
Speaker 1: what is a brax and Hicks? I don't know, babe,
Speaker 1: But it's just when when people are in labor and
Speaker 1: they say I'm having a brax and Hicks contraction, you
Speaker 1: must count minutes in between each contraction so you know
Speaker 1: whether you're ready to go or not.
Speaker 2: I'm googling. Here's what I can tell you. It's false labor.
Speaker 2: Brax and Hicks is contractions. No, it's practice contractions or
Speaker 2: false labor. It sporadically uterine contractions that start six weeks
Speaker 2: into a pregnancy. Oh, but they also felt in the
Speaker 2: second or third dRIT mystery pregnancy by a pregnant.
Speaker 1: I've got my period.
Speaker 2: Okakay.
Speaker 1: Anyway, this happened like a couple of weeks ago. Here's
Speaker 1: what I can say to you. That day, the only
Speaker 1: rigorous activity I did was play darts.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: And the only reason why I say this is because
Speaker 1: I had just come off the back of like two
Speaker 1: hours of darts, and I don't I didn't feel strenuous
Speaker 1: or intensive. But I got home and I laid down.
Speaker 1: This is no hanky panky, babe. I laid down on
Speaker 1: my side. I was scrolling as I was reading a book,
Speaker 1: I got up huh, laying on my side scrolling reading
Speaker 1: like I read on my phone. Oh okay, well sorry,
Speaker 1: that was very cyok. I get up to get my food.
Speaker 1: I ordered in food, and like as soon as I
Speaker 1: had like swung my legs off the bed propelled myself up,
Speaker 1: I keeled forward. I was like, ah oh, and I
Speaker 1: was like, what is that? What is that? I was
Speaker 1: shocked And so now I'm killed forward in a C shape,
Speaker 1: but my back is concave and I cannot outstretch my
Speaker 1: back without it feeling like I'm pulling my stomach muscles up. Babes,
Speaker 1: I tried one big pull and it's like I snapped
Speaker 1: back forward and just started bawling my eyes out. And
Speaker 1: I'm not like a recreational cryer like that. I'm a
Speaker 1: big like suppress suppress. I was. Now I'm keeled over,
Speaker 1: like I don't know what I'm doing. Then I go
Speaker 1: and sit down on the couch. At this point, the
Speaker 1: food who knows where it is. I'm sitting on the
Speaker 1: couch slowly trying to like stretch my stomach muscles out
Speaker 1: so I can lie down backwards and then almost like
Speaker 1: keep my body in a tense motion, so I don't
Speaker 1: move and thus trigger another. Whatever this contraction was, it
Speaker 1: felt like a combination, like when I had my whole
Speaker 1: body stretched out, so my whole body's taught like a
Speaker 1: little sardine. It was like a dull, thumping pain all
Speaker 1: around the abdomen right, mostly like the higher one. And
Speaker 1: then when I keeled forward, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing.
Speaker 1: It was the most bizarre thing. At one point I
Speaker 1: was lying back and all I could feel was like
Speaker 1: this steady stream tears rolling down my face. It would
Speaker 1: not stop. It's rolling down my cheeks to my neck.
Speaker 1: The collar of my shirt is so what I was like,
Speaker 1: Babes is nothing like it. It's nothing like it. Then
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, let me take some europhin. I
Speaker 1: take some europhin or panel or whatever it was. It
Speaker 1: was gone with in thirty minutes. I said, this is confusing.
Speaker 1: So the pain that I was feeling, how can you
Speaker 1: tell me the modern medicine fix it? In thirty minutes,
Speaker 1: I'd know what happened. To this day, I don't understand
Speaker 1: what happened, but it's had me paring it about side
Speaker 1: sleeping and paring it about darts.
Speaker 2: We should get onto what that was. Let's call it doctrine.
Speaker 2: I've always wondered, why do people from nay, fifty years
Speaker 2: ago look so damn old in these photos? It's giving
Speaker 2: crusty from dare I say? And it turns out I'm
Speaker 2: not the only one. Cue the TikTok.
Speaker 3: The age of eighteen, Coral seek and looked like a teenager.
Speaker 3: But it doesn't take long in an old high school
Speaker 3: yearbook to find teenagers who look surprisingly old. These people are.
Speaker 1: All in their twenties, but so are these people.
Speaker 3: This is Elizabeth Taylor when she was just seventeen, and
Speaker 3: here are some high school students from the seventies.
Speaker 1: Did people used to look older?
Speaker 4: Brandon McCarthy asked on Twitter, and evidence poured in. People
Speaker 4: shared photos of their parents in their early twenties, their
Speaker 4: dad at twenty one.
Speaker 2: Every Father's Day, everybody like will bring out the part
Speaker 2: of the one time their dad was hot.
Speaker 1: Yeah weird, it's so weird you participated.
Speaker 2: Oh I just didn't d show you how oh my dad?
Speaker 2: But it was suer today. This is what I look like.
Speaker 2: But again, it was giving crusty and Dusty all those
Speaker 2: years ago. I think the phenomena. I'm sure the video
Speaker 2: goes on to explain it, but I think we can
Speaker 2: come to our own, oh to conclusion, susus. Their hairstyles
Speaker 2: were different, there was no cosmetic interventions. And also, like
Speaker 2: people's timeline was different. So when you were eighteen, you
Speaker 2: were halfway through your life, you know, back when we
Speaker 2: didn't have like medicine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you had me for a second, you lost me.
Speaker 1: So we're saying that lifestyle prematurely ages you. But mums today,
Speaker 1: forty year old moms today look twenty eighth, and forty
Speaker 1: year old moms then look seventy five. Yeah, it is
Speaker 1: a theory in itself that preventative measures make us seeing younger.
Speaker 1: And maybe it's a diet, and maybe it's all of
Speaker 1: these things, but that contradicts the idea that back in
Speaker 1: the days was a healthier lifestyle we're getting now. Maybe
Speaker 1: sun exposure, Oden Layer, Yeah, yeah, it's the sun. Do
Speaker 1: I need to elaborate?
Speaker 2: No, that's on that. That's on that.
Speaker 1: You've been listening to the Flex and Frums Daily podcast.
