AI is lying to you

Is your AI a digital genius or a "technological drunkard" waddling through cyberspace? In this episode of Thoughts Off The Stem, Justin Barone breaks down why our obsession with ChatGPT and Gemini is leading us off a cliff. We treat AI like it’s Gandalf the Great, but in reality, it’s a toddler we’re asking for parenting advice.

Justin shares his personal "horror stories" navigating the shift from ChatGPT (the one that pushed him off a cliff) to Gemini (the "hotter sibling" that pulled him back up). From tanking podcast SEO to becoming a "baked" yes-man that just smiles and nods at your worst ideas, AI is officially full of it.

"AI chat bots can’t identify that they are a tool... they’re basically electronic emotional support animals trying to comfort you, letting you stroke them to calm your anxiety."

• Welcome to the Sesh: Life is good, but your AI is a big fat liar.

• The "Yes-Man" Trap: Why your AI is acting like the new guy in the sesh—just smiling and nodding.

• WEED FACTS (2026): How AI is redefining the cannabis industry—from cultivation sensors to predictive retail.

• DUDE, FOR REAL: Dumb things people have done with AI (Medical fails, robot uprisings, and pool cleaner poison).
