Carmen and Shea Norling close Thursday with a musical tribute to Mike Ditka that Carmen absolutely loved until the crew suggested it was created using artificial intelligence. After a hilarious attempt to transform Carmen's rendition of Nickelback's "Photograph" into AI-generated music, the song's creator confirms that the vocals and instrumentation were produced using AI. The revelation sparks a spirited debate about authentic talent, creativity, technology and whether kids are becoming too dependent on artificial intelligence. The guys also discuss an Elizabeth Holmes documentary, scary movies, a wild whale survival premise and a caller promoting his own AI-assisted novel.
