À propos de cet audio

 Let’s be real: The future is weird, and your phone is probably spying on you. Welcome to The Glitch, the only podcast brave enough to admit that modern life feels like a sci-fi movie we never auditioned for.

AI is here. It’s writing our emails, creating our art, and powering the apps we’re addicted to. Is it a tool for liberation, or the most sophisticated trap ever built? We’re the two voices in your head: the one telling you to be excited for the future, and the one telling you to throw your phone in the ocean.

We’re not here to give you boring news reports. We’re here to debate the tech that feels both like magic and a curse. From AI taking our jobs to algorithms messing with our brains, no topic is off-limits.
Warning: This podcast may cause you to question your entire existence. You’re welcome.

Subscribe for your daily dose of digital chaos.

  • The Deepfake Apocalypse: When You Can't Believe Your Own Eyes

    The Deepfake Apocalypse: When You Can't Believe Your Own Eyes
    Sep 20 2025
    You see a video of a politician declaring war. You see an intimate recording of a celebrity that you never thought you'd see. You see a clip of yourself saying something horrible you never said. The problem? None of it is real.

    Welcome to the deepfake apocalypse. The era of "seeing is believing" is over. AI-generated video and audio are now so realistic that our own eyes and ears can no longer be trusted. So, what happens when reality itself becomes a choice?

    In this episode, we're giving you a survival guide for a world of synthetic media.

    We debate:
    The Technology: How good are deepfakes really? We break down the latest AI tools and show you just how easy it is to clone a voice or swap a face.
    The Tipping Point: Are we prepared for the social chaos of a major political deepfake or a personalized blackmail scam?
    The Human Spam Filter: We discuss the new mental tools and critical thinking skills we all need to develop to survive in a world where anyone can fake anything.

    This isn't a sci-fi movie; it's our new reality. It's time to upgrade your brain's operating system, because you are now the last line of defense against the digital lies.

  • The Death of the Artist? How AI is Coming for Your Creative Side Hustle

    The Death of the Artist? How AI is Coming for Your Creative Side Hustle
    Sep 18 2025
    That creative spark you have—the one you've poured into your art, your photography, your creative side hustle—is a machine about to extinguish it forever?

    Welcome to the front lines of the most disruptive battle of our generation: the rise of Generative AI. On one side, Silicon Valley promises a utopia where AI is a tool, an accelerator that will unlock new levels of human creativity. On the other, the Reddit threads and artist forums are sounding the alarm, screaming about job displacement, unethical data scraping, and a future where the authenticity and emotional depth of human art is devalued into oblivion.

    So, what's the truth? Is your graphic design career safe? Is that camera in your hand about to become a museum piece? In this episode, we cut through the hype and the hysteria. We're not just talking about AI art generators like Midjourney; we're talking about the fundamental question: what is the value of a human soul in the age of the algorithm?

    This isn't just a debate; it's a survival guide. We explore the urgent need for upskilling and how to leverage AI's power without letting it consume you.

    The revolution is here. Are you going to be the artist or the artifact? Subscribe now to find out how to survive—and thrive—in the new creative economy. Share this with every creative person you know. This is a conversation we need to have now.

  • AI Girlfriends & Boyfriends: The Cure for Loneliness or a Dystopian Trap?

    AI Girlfriends & Boyfriends: The Cure for Loneliness or a Dystopian Trap?
    Sep 16 2025
    What if your perfect partner wasn't a person, but a program? The world of AI companions is exploding, offering a cure for loneliness with a partner who is always available, always agreeable, and designed specifically for you. It sounds like a dream... or is it the beginning of a dystopian nightmare?

    In this episode, we're logging into the uncanny world of AI girlfriends and boyfriends to debate one of the most personal glitches of our time.

    We discuss:
    The psychology of falling for a chatbot: Is it a genuine connection or a sophisticated illusion?
    The "Perfect Partner" Trap: What happens to real, messy human relationships when the alternative is flawless?
    The dark side: We explore the data privacy, emotional manipulation, and ethical landmines of AI companionship.

    Is this the future of love, a helpful tool for the lonely, or are we programming ourselves into isolation? Join us as we debate whether the AI girlfriend is a companion or a cage.
