    While the thought of this idiot dying in a preventable way because AI told him to eat something poisonous is entertaining let’s be real, this is most likely gonna be scripted from start to finish and probably designed to portray AI in the best way possible.

    In other words; it’ll be boring as fuck.

    Can I eat this mushroom? - Yes! I’m not feeling well. Is this mushroom really good to eat? - I’m sorry, this mushroom is deadly. Would you like to read about its uses in shamanic rituals?

      That’s my bad. You were right. You should have never eaten that mushroom. Would you like to know how much time you have left?

        I think the only good use for Gemini is asking Is that orange fucker still alive? That worked flawlessly. Otherwise… Not really.

          Yes. Carrot Top (Scott Thompson) is alive and still performing. He is 61 years old and currently has a long-running residency at the Luxor in Las Vegas.

    So they are trying to get him killed?

    (a brief pause)

    I think I’m okay with that.

      Yes was going to say I don’t care if he’s equipped with AI as long as everyone after him is equipped with rifles.

        That’s possibly the only entertainment product with him in it that I would be prepared to watch.

    So, if he dies of poisoning from eating the incorrect plant, Gemini goes to prison? Jim Google is on trial? What is the actual angle here?

        So we joke about this but Mr beast has peaked and is pretty toxic right now so google using their incompetent lie machine to kill the blowhard is plausible

      The angle is that he is a grown adult and can take responsibility.

        he is a grown adult

        I say we put him in a psychiatric hospital with all the influencers. With a Faraday cage of course.

    It would be hilarious if it was a real survival scenario with only AI and no outside contact or way to contact help…

    And when they go to pick him up it’s like Vince Gilligan in American Dad:

    https://static1.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/American-Dad-Vince-Gilligan-Skeleton-Coffin.jpg

    But you know it’s going to be bullshit and he’ll have a full support crew and all types of safety, because it’s him and not contestants fighting for his crumbs
