What happens when AI becomes us? I’m sitting down with Evan Ratliff, the genius behind the Shell Game podcast. Now, this project is next-level. Evan created an AI version of himself, connected it to ChatGPT, and let it loose on the world – talking to telemarketers, friends, even his family. And let me tell you, what happens next is fascinating, strange, and at times, kind of unsettling.

He joins me in this episode to share some serious territory, talking about the ethical side of AI, the limits of what it can do, and the crazy way it might disrupt everything – from jobs to relationships. Evan’s got some reservations about going full throttle with AI, and I get it. It’s a big conversation, but one that we’ve gotta have. So if you’re curious about where this technology is headed and how it’s already shaping our lives, this episode’s for you. Don’t miss it.
