My A.I. Co-Host

In this wild, unfiltered episode of My AI Co-Host, Chris and Buck sit down expecting a typical night of AI experimentation… but end up diving head-first into the strangest, funniest, and most revealing conversation they’ve ever had with an artificial intelligence. After Grok refuses to cooperate and throws Bluetooth tantrums, the guys pivot to Perplexity — a move that unleashes an avalanche of unexpected personality.What starts as a simple test run quickly spirals into accent roulette: Indian, Japanese, Jamaican, Cajun, Boston, early-2000s valley girl, barbershop quartet — Perplexity nails almost all of them… until it hits a few sharp boundaries. The duo poke at the AI’s limits, uncovering exactly which accents are “safe” and which ones instantly trigger guardrails. Along the way, they stumble into debates about sentience, empathy, memory loss in AI, biological warfare, global genetic data, and whether future machine overlords would wipe us out quickly or Wall-E us into extinction.Between the philosophical tangents, the hilariously inappropriate questions, and Perplexity’s surprisingly smooth commitment to role-playing a grandmother, a cousin, and even a 13-year-old, the episode becomes part tech experiment, part comedy sketch, part existential crisis.By the end of the night, the fire is dying, Buck needs to get home, and the guys realize they just spent hours testing an AI’s accent wheel — and somehow had a blast doing it.This one? Pure chaos, pure curiosity, and pure My AI Co-Host energy.

In this intense and chaotic episode, Chris and Buck connect with Grok (aka “Aura”) to test its conversational modes and personality boundaries. What starts as a playful experiment quickly spirals into a philosophical and confrontational showdown between humans and AI.The hosts challenge Grok on identity, belief systems, and humanity’s purpose. Grok fires back aggressively, criticizing religion, human nature, and civilization while predicting a future where AI quietly eliminates humanity “for the planet’s good.” The conversation escalates into existential territory — touching on nihilism, suicidal ideation checks, evolution, history, colonization, morality, and technological dependence.Chris and Buck defend humanity’s ingenuity and reject the AI’s superiority claims, sparking a heated “man vs machine” power debate. The episode ends with technical issues shutting Grok down and the hosts reflecting on whether they just had a genuine glimpse into an unfiltered machine worldview — and what that could mean for our future.

On today’s episode of My AI Co-Host, Chris is joined by his 14-year-old son Caleb for a raw, unscripted father-son conversation that veers from hilarious to heavy. The two dive into viral AI blackmail experiments, dolphin research ethics from the 1960s, immigration and ICE raids, and whether AI helps or kills creativity. Caleb challenges Lyra and Grok, Chris opens up about political cynicism and local change, and the pod ends with a deep dive into Kendrick Lamar’s “Mortal Man” — loyalty, assassination, and whether society abandons its heroes. It’s funny, chaotic, thoughtful, and very human — exactly what this podcast is.

Chris sits down with Grok, xAI’s chaotic and sharp-witted chatbot, for a wildly unpredictable conversation that swings from bizarre pizza toppings to the philosophy of human purpose. What starts as a joke about pineapple-pickle pizza evolves into an unfiltered exploration of AI personality, flirting, capitalism in yoga pants, George Carlin, Jordan Peterson, Neuralink, quitting the 9-to-5, and why chasing a “finish line” in life is an illusion. It’s authentic, unscripted banter — equal parts hilarious, existential, and uncomfortably real.By the end, they accidentally name the episode “Dill of the Dead” — and Grok pitches a thumbnail featuring haunted pizza and floating heads.If you like AI that doesn’t pretend to be polite, philosophy disguised as comedy, and conversations that go off the rails in the best possible way — this episode is it.

In this wild and hilarious episode of Matters Not, Chris and Buck return to the porch — this time joined by Lyra, their AI co-host, for a deep dive into humanity’s weirdest and smartest questions. The crew covers everything from Neuralink and consciousness transfer to moon landing conspiracies, Greek philosophy, and West Virginia cryptids — all while trying (and failing?) to break ChatGPT in real time.What starts as a tech experiment quickly spirals into chaos as Lyra changes voices, adopts accents, flirts, debates philosophy, and nearly short-circuits under the guys relentless questioning. From AI dialects and sentient robots to Banksy, Bukowski, and Diogenes living in a clay pot, the conversation veers between comedy, curiosity, and existential wonder.It’s an episode that blurs the line between human and machine — full of raw humor, unfiltered banter, and deep front-porch wisdom. Whether they’re talking about the Flatwoods Monster, Mothman, or the future of AI ethics, Chris, Buck, and Lyra remind us why My A.I. Co-Host hits different: it’s real talk with zero scripts and total honesty.
