Episode 04-01: AI Took My Podcast Job

Welcome to what might just be the final episode of Wrenches, Gadgets & Hacks – and no, not because we’re tired of talking tech. It’s because AI has officially taken over. That’s right, folks. As the title suggests, AI is just too good now. We, the humble human hosts, are no longer needed to flip the switches, ramble into microphones, or even pretend to know what we’re talking about. AI can do it all – research, scriptwriting, and yes, even turning dry documentation into binge-worthy podcast content. So, John and Carl thought, why not go out with a bang? This entire episode has been created by AI. Who knew it could be this good? Enjoy the show… or should I say, enjoy your new AI overlords. 🤖
