What's up? Y artist is Doug E Fresh and you're watching and we talked weekly you're listening to right here. It wasn't nobody in the stands like that. They was going against the pacers. Yeah, but the stands was not. It wasn't. They was like. Dry because they ball them too. That's interesting. They had some people out there, but not like pack pack. But it was a tight game. They wound up eating the pacers, and and B I think carried it. He had like thirty five. He had like thirty five points. Yeah. But then the kids, the rookies looked like like they kids like babies are they like nineteen very extremely young. It was one I think he was seventy seven. His number, I can't remember his name, but I said, that's a baby and. You get like three million he had like three million years, but that's a baby. Yeah, he got grown grown man, bigger than grown man. But it was it was cool. I had a great time. I was up in the sky with their arena sky box seats and stuff. It was a great view. I had great company. I had a great time, and I don't forget out much. But that's why I do want to ask you though, do they are? You know how back when Kolby and all of them was getting drafted from high school, they had stopped that and said you had to go to college for. A certain amount of time. Are they doing that again? I think they might have, because, like I said, this kid, don't he wasn't even college age. He was like, yeah, I think they might have because how old was Bronnie when he went. Ronnie? They stopped it? Well, he we didn't do some college. But there are some players I think that went and then just got drafted from high school. Yeah that was my dad. What about you? What about you? Oh man, I'm a little. I'm a little perturbed because I had plans for today, just the stuff that I was going to do, like my little you know, running around some Christmas shopping and all that, and then I spent my day retwisting my son's locks. Ye. So yeah, I'm just spent my whole day and doing his hair. And my mom often lasts because she was like, yeah, you wanted a girl and now you're doing your sons there. How long did it take you? And I'm still kind of new because I had to teach myself from YouTube university. I learned how to retwist his locks. Well, the lock jail, yeah, but we know back in August, we went on vacation and he had some girl had did his starter locks and he jumped in the pool and jumped out and his hair was all puffed up. So you know, you can't get starter locks black because they have not locked yet. So he was like, what am I gonna do about my hair? Can you fix it? So when we were on vacation, I watched a couple of videos and I learned how to retwist it. Back they got some wax or something. That yeah, you can, you can do it too, but now they have different things like people are doing it like either with you know, no lock and gel or moves or it's a couple of ways that you can do it, but even like even like a crochet needle, like you can do it that way. So it's just like but I'm still really slow at it. So some people can do it in like two hours, and I feel like it's taken me like four hours, like four or five hours. I'm like I still I'm like I'm blaming it on his big head. But then it's still like I'm slow. But you know what happens, his friends who got locked will be like my mom doing and then somebody else'll be like yeah, exactly, yeah, And then I'm hearing about the people that do it and the money that they're making, and I'm like, I'm doing this for free. I can't charge baby boy. Yeah yeah, but he's saving money and I'm wasting time, losing time. Yeah, all right, what about you see? Just don't be like it's busy. My uh is always busy. Man, getting ready to get cold out there. It's supposed to know something tomorrow, right, I'm hearing it night tonight, tonight. Okay, so y'all better stay warm out there, but bundled up. No, but yeah, school out there, and so you'll might better make sure that y'all bundle up and you don't get ready for the snow. I don't think it's a storm, but you know, they they prepare. Philly, we always get snow, so we're not too worried about it. So if we was in a safe example, I don't know, Virginia or somewhere like that, as soon as they get snow, they get terrified. You're like, they got for it. Bad. Atlanta is really bad Atlanta. Y Cully. The they different. They sol like, when we do get. A little snow, everybody at the market like, what you wait, you only a little sprinkle. This ain't the same. This ain't the same breed. So when we do get snow, these people like they're not the drive and not the winners in ninety five and ninety six. Yeah, yeah, say yes, remember that you still had to go to school. Oh my god. They say that's coming back. They say it's coming back, so you know, just make sure it's coming back. Snow. Yeah, the type of snow we I mean, we haven't had. You think of the last few years, we haven't had a lot of snow, and every year has been getting more and more and more, and last I think this past summer was way so it was so hot that they said that, you know, we talk about global warming and whether you believe it or not, that things about the are about to start happening. So if we got a hot summer, it may be a cold and snowy winter. The winter is coming. Winter is coming. When the next game. But yeah, so you already know we talked after this. The House of Dragons. It just came to me, you know, when it's coming you know, it's just yeah, you know, you know, and. This is gonna be some ice walkers out there. It's gonna be real cold, right, so make sure you'll bundled up. Shout out the freequay. So we talked these after the talking w PPM Pete Philadelphia one O six point five film. We talked weeks after the talking. With your boy and beautiful and beautiful class lady. You're ready for me for what good news, no doubt, give it to me. But but but before we did, no before what No, just get it to me, all right? This is the y'all are going to just tell me anyway if it's good or bad, So it don't even matter, all right. I know y'all heard of this story. It's the university University of Michigan's head coach. Yeah it's sad, isn't it? Yo? This is like you're gonna let that happen for that all right, University of Michigan's head coach with thirty nine year old Charon Moore. I'm not saying his name right, Charon, Charon, Charon Moore. He's a married father with three daughters and now he is without a job. Not only is he jobless, he's behind bars. He was allegedly exposed for having an affair with his assistant, and once that came to light, everything began to crumble for him. He was fired from his head coaching position, where he earned. Guys, I want more than the rookie earned. Crazy five and a half mil about five point five million dollars a year. The university says that Moore had an inappropriate relationship with a staffer. Y'all can see the picture on who his wife, his assistant is, all right. They terminated his contract with calls. The president Grassow called the conduct unacceptable and adding that m maintained zero tolerance for such behavior. Basically, in plain english, he is not getting a dime a design, He ain't getting no money. He ain't getting no money from his contract, all right. Allegedly, after now this is all alleged, everybody's like, oh what happened? Investigations are still underway, but this is the information that I found regarding the alleged rumors. So Allegedly, after being confronted, Moore went home to his wife, where an altercation broke out and the police recalled. He then allegedly went to the assistant's house, where he threatened to kill her and himself for ruining his for her ruining his life. He was arrested on assault allegations and is currently being held at the Wischita County Jail. Now the charge is not alleged. He is being held as for a saw at the jail, but the series of events is alleged on how they came to that charge. So it's also alleged that a door Dash driver delivered a Plan B to Morri's house and later set an anonymous tip to the UM Athletic department about the delivery. That same tip is what probably triggered the investigation. Ain't that crazy? Yo? You can't even trust the uber driver door dash. Like, what is crazy? That's crazy, that's wild. And what you do in the dark will come out and the like. Think back to that little infamous you know, the concert with. Oh yeah yeah, when they put the picture. On them exactly exactly what was that was that? That wasn't Maroon five? What band was that? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah? But here's the thing, you always remained calm and chaos. If they would have not brought attention to themselves, nobody would have cared exactly. But because they did. Uh huh, that was exactly. That was exactly exactly. So to close up this story, it's also alleged that More increased the staff member's salary by thousands of dollars to keep her happy after using the plan. BI remember what I said. Investigations are still pending on all fronts that I discussed. Sound kind of like black Now I'm gonna leave it. Let leave it at that, but it sounds kind of like black black man, So they better start to stop. Listen. Lead them beckies with the blind hair of home. I'm just say that, if you look like me, lead them BUCkies with the blind hair. Loom man. Can I make a comment, I don't care. I'm not saying I don't care keep that comment. But what my father used to tell me is never me with nobody who don't got nothing to. Lose or not more investigating that part because you messing with an assistant who worked for you. She ain't got lose with you, guys. But if you dealing with somebody who got more to lose than you, they not They not doing nothing. And not that I'm saying, be a whistleblower or nothing, but you you're not going through that girl. I mean exactly like, nah, you you messing with the help, and then the help get mad. Yes, but I don't want it. But still like the way gods think, though, we don't care about a woman having too much any We don't care. We don't care about your degrees, we don't care about your money. All we care is are peace. If you treat us. Nicely, be nice to us. Well, what I'm ain't gonna say, Well, we'll talk to a bag lady, but we'll talk to any pretty much anybody, as long as you treat it as nice. We gucci that's it. And I've heard a majority men say that. But I also know the same men who get a woman who's a three point. Five and don't sign no pre and up and she raped him out of his money. When it's time to get that divorce, he is like, wait a minute, you know what I mean? Like, So sometimes you just gotta you just gotta do more vetting. That's all I know. Okay, I am so excited about this story, y'all, And it's about time Billy is showing love to Saudia Schuler. We have talked about Saudia Schuler so many times regarding things that she does for the community. See how she you know, looks out and now Philadelphia is actually seeing this. So yes, Auntie Salt is having a street named after her. The corner of Broad and Pike will now be Saldia's Sholer Way. City Council says this is about. Honoring honoring a woman who feeds whole neighborhoods, throws Christmas for the block, and basically pours her heart into North Philly every single day. Council member Cindy Bass put the bill in and said she did it because she admires Saudia's heart and her love for this city and Saudi. She kept it real by saying, I don't do it for attention. I do it because my community deserves joy. Yeah. Yeah. So, as I said, I'm just so happy to write this story because it's just it's not just a street that's being named after her. It's Philly way of saying we see you, we appreciate you, and pretty much they not playing about it. So I think I think it's an excellent, excellent way to show her all that she's poured into the city. We love you, shout out to you, yeah. And shout out to City beds. That's my big sis. I love her. She I think she was that's her district and she was just like, we're going to She'll love to us. Yeah, okay, the next story. So I'm doing better, aren't I? With the whole good news and some bad news. Yeah, all right, I'm making sure that I'm you know, pleasing the people. All right. So this next story is about eight Philadelphia youth football players. So I know y'all heard about this one. Yeah, yeah, you heard about the two systems. Yeah, okay. So eight Philadelphia youth football players, all between the ages of thirteen and fifteen, are now facing felony charges in Florida after allegedly still in more than two. Thousand dollars in merchandise. They were in Florida at a sporting goods in Polk County. So Polk County Deputies say that on surveillance video, it shows the teams splitting into two groups, making a small purchase, and then stuffing stolen items into a Dick's bag before trying to walk out. Three teams were. Stopped outside with a loaded backpack and a store bag, and then five more were arrested in the inside. The group was in Davenport. For the Prolific Prolific Nationals Tournament their basketball and or football, and according to deputies, they never made it. To the championship games. So kids, but they the game still went on. Oh okay they all wow. Officials noted that the teams had no prior criminal history. They lost because they lost eight of their probably star players. That's crazy. So coach ray Kwan binds Uh he had made a quote. He said the team strives on discipline, prayer, and schoolwork too, and he added, I just hope that they take this as a lesson learned. And actions have consequences, and actions also affect not. Just you but those around you. So, but here's a question that I want to ask. And I know that people are going to be like, oh, so do not and don't send me a message about what I'm about to say. Okay, but if these were white kids the same age and the same. Facts, will we be looking at fellow charges? We wouldn't be looking at children's faces. Yes, Like, Okay, I gave you two options when I sent them the pictures. Did you know this? It was one with the ones where their faces blurred out? Which ones did you show? I? Didn't show any of them. Okay, okay, well there there there there were pictures with their faces. I seen enough enough pictures out there that if y'all want to yeah, because I was like I didn't. I don't want to see their faces out there. So I know that it's accountability. I know every time it's like, oh the race card, this and that. But the way that Southern draw deputy or sheriff when he was at that podium and he took their. Pictures and said here they go look at them. There is and they're lad and they were stealing and they are caught and we're taking it to the highest left like come on. Well, I mean, just to be fair, that particular he's the see the commissioner. The Sheriff's the shaff Pole County sheriff judge. That that particular guy is animated when because I had to do some research because I wanted to see if he was just being you know, you know, if he was just targeting a particular demographic or is that what he does and what I will say, he does that type thing stuff, right. I think he wore a gold chain one day. I mean it could be. I mean he leans towards people who look like me, right, But I think we have become I was a little challenged with the lack of outrage in them posting these kids' faces. I didn't see under. And I was I was a little disappointed because I thought I would see more people upset about that. But I think that we're in a time and moment where everyone wants to see everything, and we are in the social media moment, and so everyone is desensitized with visuals, right, so anything people are interested to see. Right. That said, I get that they did something that they shouldn't have done, and it's the consequences that they that they have to serve, whatever that may be, and they're going to learn the hard lesson. I was just a little bit, But that's why I said, I'm not saying the accountability isn't there. You know, you got you got the so called I'm doing air quote black mothers as soon as as your child, Oh no, my baby boy is this and this and that, and no, he wouldn't hurt nobody. But what my question is is that we get there's certain rules that we can't play by either or certain things that we can't do that they can do. Again, if these were white children between thirteen and fifteen championship, you know, game and all of that, would this be the same outcome? Just No, Yeah, I don't think. I don't think so. If I could just for one second, you know, put my law enforcement hat on, what I could say. Kind of troubled me about this is that, you know, for a lot of people is that you know, we have these teenagers that you know, their faces are out there, their mugshots are out there, their names are out there. And I also did some research and what I found is that in the state of Florida, and there are certain states where you can, you know, show their pictures, you can do that. If they had felony charges, these charges were misdemeanors, then you know, you can't show their faces. So my thing was like, did they quote unquote trump up these charges just to make them fel any charges just to be able to show their faces? Because in the press conference that they have, they're going through these items like they stole this and here's the total of these items. This for fifty nine, that item, that item, that item, and the sum of the item is two thousand dollars. Of course, so if there's eight people individually. They're not all two thousand dollars. They're so exactly depending on what the amount is. So if you divide who took what into the amount that they stole, now is it a felony charge or is it misdemeanors or is it even summaries Like if one person took six sixty nine ninety were for they only took one item, that's a summary offense. And now you've put their their face out there. So I had I had an issue with that. That made me very angry. But at the same time too, and I'm not sure that the parents know this, the public. Knows this is helpful. Yeah, that that they can request that the Sheriff's Department remove these pictures and take them down. And once they make that official request, they have to remove that. But at this point. It's it's it's all over the but and I'm not trying to flip it because phillyas Sou's city, But it comes to the point where when you learn this kind of information, it's like, lawyer up, now, lawyer rup, Now, you got defamation of character, you got a lawsuit and although you they was wrong and they definitely need to but they're they're still. Innocent until proven guilty, and they're they're they haven't committed any any crimes. Theise the first time offenders, they could be offered some type of you know, diversionary programs where if you complete this program. Once you complete it, your your charges are withdrawn and then you can file for some type of expungement and then this can be removed from your record. Therefore you have a clean record. But at this time, you've already put their information out there, right and and they once they become a teen, you get a fresh start, you know what I mean, And then you start all over again. And then you have your you're supposed to have your juvenile record and then your adult record is supposed to be separate. But it's like, but that's a great point that you made. You can pull the stuff up so they won't be they won't have that opportunity to not to be separated from their past as a juvenile and and you know, have a clean slate as an adult. But I'm still going on what you said about the individual part, Like if each kid had under a certain amount of dollars and their individuals, it's like, what, how can they all be How can it be a felony. If it's an it's each individual charge. Yeah, are they doing it because collectively like conspiracy or is that what it is? That they were absolutely absolutely as from from a prosecutor's standpoint, they're going to try to link them together as codefendents because that makes their stronger. But then that they're they're gonna run with that the two thousand dollars like, oh they all stole. With no anything over. Every Yeah, every state is different, even here in Pennsylvania. The counties are even different because like I have clients that if they committed the same crime here in Philadelphia it's different, then it would be outside of Delaware County Montgomerys, right, and it is unfortunately, Well. I'm hoping that the kids know that they did wrong and you not. You know, I guess every we we say, oh I took a candy bar like you, you still stole like. You you did you you were dead wrong. But I hope that their parents is going to you know, lawyer up and get some type. Of you know, and it is just like you said, if this were you know, not mine not I'm minority children a lot of times and and you know, even in taking criminal justice courses, what you see is that some of these crimes don't even make it to an arrest because that police officer may know that child and may know that child's parent and say, hey, call your mom on the phone. They're gonna come get you. You come get the child. He's over here stealing. Don't you do that again. I better not see you no more. That's it. Next time you're going to jail. And that's that, it doesn't even result in an arrest. Yeah, but that's and we need more of that in the neighborhoods. Yeah. And and one thing that I did hear. One thing that I did hear, and this is this is not in support, But what I would say is from my understanding and listening to the sheriff, is that that particular county has very very low crime, right, and so they know when people are there that it's different from those that are normally within that county, and so there they are probably more harsh on sanctions of crime because there's no crime there. So honestly, they probably are just trying to make an example of these kids. They wanted to make an example of these kids, and they wanted to make a statement, an example based on it being a connection to phillip and it being a connection to signs. Yeah, outsiders and they're in the state of Florida. It's just, you know, so political. You know, I'll put it on his page. And it was like, Philly, why y'all cutting up or something? Yeah, exactly exactly. You know what I mean? I was. I was. I felt that the response that. Their game to directing directing it to Philly, and the mayor said something to me, that's what That's where I felt like he has some motivation or something that he's going to try to make an example because he was clear of this ain't Philadelphia. I don't know what's in Philadelphia. But the thing down here too as well. Still a jab, still a jab. Yeah, we got some more good news. Yeah, yeah, this is uh, Philly is looking to turn around twenty vacant school buildings into affordable housing. We'll see. Yeah, Cheryl Parker has been she been making changes, She has really been doing her I. Think she should come back on the show. I do. I feel like we got some good questions to ask. She won't come over. Yeah, well we'll say let's reach out all right, so hopefully we'll reach out again at one of her events. Yeah, okay, hopefully this means that there are no more riding eye sores, but potential affordable housing where these blight you know, eyeesres are. So the school district has voted on a resolution to transfer the unused buildings to the city and they approved. They vote, so the long abandoned building, Adie Lewis. My sister went there. Shout out to Aadie Lewis in East Germantown which has been sitting empty for years while even though neighbors complain. The push came after the tragic discovery of twenty three year old Cada Scott's body was buried behind the Lewis school, which lit up the community's outrage and calls to do something with these properties. So Mary Cheryl Parker says, we cannot let blighted buildings in the middle of residsidential neighborhoods live vacant and once them turned into housing to help ease Philly's housing crisis. Council member Cindy. Bass wrote that the site has become more than an eye sore. It's now associated with criminal activity and tragic violence. Bottom line, those empty schools could now become homes instead of hazards. That's actually great though, that's great. I mean, hopefully they can continue that. And I'm seeing some schools turned into condos and housing for the well to do, so it would be great to see that part. Now in West Philly, what school is that that they turn that they. Turned into a public But what they were doing is letting people developers come out and buy them. And then like yo, Philly or just the city in. General, why aren't you buying them, keeping them, not only have to buy them, keep them and do something like this. I mean, y'all remember when Street started the dollar houses. You had all these abandoned houses and then it's like, well, let's fix them up and make them for affordable housing. So yeah, so I think it's like you said, we'll see, we'll see, you know, it's saying Tom will tell it all, Tom will tell That was your good news and your bad news from your Girl Classic Ladies. Spark Good News and bands form Classy Lady Spark on your the Beautiful, Classic Lady Spark the. Beautiful, and we are here. We talked weeklies after the talk on the w PPM Pete, Philadelphia, one O six point five sl We talked weeklies after the talk, and we have a dynamic. Sure, we're waiting for one of our guests to come in, but I think this is a great time to talk a little bit about, uh, this article that I've read. Let me see if I could pull this up, and I want to ask you ladies about uh, some some things that's actually that has been Let me see I can pull it. So you know, we know that the big talk have become the conversation surrounding AI. All right, and I thought this article was pretty interesting and I want to talk a little bit about it because I want to get you your perspective. And so the survey says this is the title of it, and you can find this on inside halton dot com. Survey says you're curious but also concerned about AI. Here's how will inform the readers. And so this was a survey that they put out and I'll just kind of scan it. One of the things from Metroline says these questions and more are top of mind for many of you. According to the results of Metroland's questionnaire about AI. Metroland, the news publication parent company recent public published and online survey aimed at identifying what readers were most curious or concerned about when when it comes to AI. Which is interesting. And so I'll start there real quick. When I say AI, what's the I start with, uh, you know, a sizzle when I say AI, what were some of the things that you were curious about? When you when you're starting to hear this conversation surrounding AI artificial. Intelligence in general, Like, yeah, what will be. Some of the things that you said I'm interested in or I'm not interested in. I'm always I think I'm always interested in technology, like you know, when it comes to anything like that's going to like just help. Everyday life. When it comes to the future, like, I'm always interested in advancement. So I think when I think about AI, I think about the positives of it. I do see a lot of the negatives that people are concerned about, because especially when it comes to like just things particularly on social media, like some of the things that people think are real that are not. And and and I'll just kind of say this as a sidebar. You know, when we had our cohort that will hopefully be able to bring back in the next couple of months, we had our our beautiful students that we were able to kind of teach and train and then mentor our young journalists. For those of you who have been supporting us and and our dedicated viewers who have been watching us for so long, you'll you'll see us kind of throw up our videos of our. Our young reporters that are doing. They were trained by US and media literacy and were trained to debunk misinformation and disinformation and a lot of the things that we showed them was just being able to, yeah, identify that stuff on social media and a lot of stuff that is out here on social media is stuff that is misleading people, and it's you know, just training them on those things. And I think that was the negative side of AI and and all that. But aside from that, just being able to use it in your everyday life just to make just tasks so much easier. Yeah, absolutely, what about you? What's the question? So when what would what would be? All right? So they so, well, I'll ask you a little later because I'll go through this survey, but you know, they asked, how would you describe your current understanding of AI right and what it doesn't do with y'all was a little disappointed that it doesn't have any numbers or how many people that they actually surveyed. But it says fifty eight percent of the people they have a basic understanding of AI. That's fifty eight percent of the people and it's say nineteen percent of the people say I have heard about it but don't really understand it. Go ahead. So I think when people talk about AI, they're talking about it in the twenty twenty five twenty twenty six element. You're talking about it from media, is it cinema as something like huge AI was when you make a call and it says press one to be transferred, press two, like AI is so minute that it's been around for almost thirty years. AI has been around. The only thing is is AI. Just like anything you plant, it grows. So AI has just been growing and expanding and now people are fearing it. But when you would go to the checkash place, when you. Would pay your utility bill, like you know, at the you know, one of them poppy stores or something, So that's AI. My understanding of AI is artificial intelligence. I love do you hear me? I love AI? I do However, with everything you love there's also you know. A tether, a dark place. The thing about the dark place with AI that people aren't talking. About, and I don't think that they really know, is the emissions of the data fields that they're holding to keep this information. That's the part that. I'm like, I love this this you know, the way it grew and how big it is, but I don't like the fact of the way of where it's being held, the emissions that it's doing to the environment, the pollution right to the to the communities. And sadly and again it is what it is. They're going into these rural areas where there's people of poverty stricken that are of black, you know, of the black and brow communities, and it's like, because they are voiceless, they can't like push these big ms os and these these big corporations because they don't have anybody to have that intellectual conversation to say this is wrong. Yeah, all right, so let me and I wanted to because Spark just made me remember another thing too, another concern too is that, like I thought about how they're also like, when you're using some of the systems, the things that you're put in that you're putting in there. They're using that to kind of train and yeah, it's kind of like you. I don't know if I want you using my information to that. No. No, Just to go through some more of what some of the people were saying, it says eighteen percent of the people say I understand it very well. That's eighteen percent of the people, right, and then four point nine percent of the people says, I don't understand. It at all. I need ages. Yeah, I need I need ages. And how many people though that's that's what it doesn't have on here, and then we go It goes on to say, these were the top topics to explore to increase your understanding of AI. So it says, we asked what you would most like to understand about how AI works. These are the sixth most popular responses. Six most popular responses. How AI makes mistakes and spreads misinformation. So that's something that says was just talking about that. We had the opportunity to talk to some of the young journalists that we teaching media literacy, and that's what we were trying to explain. Then this had to be I want to say, four or five months ago. It was hard. Then it's even harder now to identify not only misinformation but generative AI, which a lot of people have been seeing of the black folks talking about hey, y'all want my food, dance and all this. Other kind of stuff. That was generous AI. But for a minute, a lot of people actually thought that that was real people actually doing and singing those things. Right. Misinformation was wrong, and I actually, I think y'all remember I jumped on and started debunking a lot of disinformation because people just need to know. I want to know, did Eddie Murphy do Puff Daddy and fifty because I saw the documentary with Eddie Murphy and it was really Richard it was. Richard Pryor and what's the other guy, Mooney? It was them Paul Mooney as puppets. So I seen something on my timeline and it had it had Eddie Murphy in the middle, but it had Puff Daddy on one and then fifty cent and it was like the tranveloquist the puppets, the muppets. I can't tell if it's AI or not because they's gotten that good. I was like, I seen the documentary, I saw the two the two transvloquists stop trying to say the word. I saw him trying, you know, doing that. But now when I seen this one, I was like, Yo, that looks. So real that I really can't make out. And at one point put on your criminal ADJUSTICE had for this. You could use photos and videos as we know with George Floyd and so many other things. That that was. That was the holy grail of picture tales. A thousand words. You going, you're getting convicted. Now when you bring that into the court system, somebody can debunk it and say it's like generated. Yeah, generative. Yeah, real quick, let me get through this because we have our our next guest on real quick, but I just want to go over this so we can have this segment for people to kind of see listen to. And I actually want if you are. Listening right and any of these resonate to you from how you determine or define AI, what most affects you, What are some things that you want you don't understand, or certain certain things you feel are detrimental to even a. Community or an environment. I want you to let us know right. Under here, let us know, give us a comment, because we're doing a poll and we want. To know how AI affects the community more specific our community, right, so real quick, uh. We asked what you would most like to understand about how AI works, and this may uh you know, resonate with some of you. One was how AI makes mistakes or spreads misinformation? That's one. Two what AI is not good at a lot of people ask about that. Three what AI is actually good? What AI is actually good at? Let me see. Four how AI tools are trained that's another one. Off the information right, the difference between human made AI right and AI made content, and the link between AI and the environment, which you guys brought up. And last, but not at least, top AI topics reader are most curious about, they said, We ask which specific areas of AI are most curious about. These are the top responses from the readers. One, how to spot AI generative content that's always big on everyone. That's even music. Also people are using music. There's a commercial going around with uh. I forgot his name, gods, I can't think of his name, real quick, but he's talking about using sumo to generate some content, right, news and information, privacy and security, how AI is being used around me, jobs and the economy, and how to use AI safely and responsibly, and so those were the top topics most readers were concerned about as it relates to a I. And so it's a conversation we're going to continue to have. And I think it's just good. You want you want to say something. Oh yeah, no, I was just agreeing, like people are concerned about jobs. Will will it replace you? That has always been one of the major, you know, conversations that the community has had. Will AI replace uh? Will AI replace some jobs and put people out of the job market? Right? One of the comments that I constantly hear is that specifically, and I always say, it's not going to be AI that puts you out of the job market. It's people using AI that's going to put you out of the job market. So I encourage you, if you're listening to the sound of my voice, at the very least learn something. Get acquainted with the tools, because there's a lot of tools out there, and it's a lot of free tools out there. Just learning. I wouldn't expound on that when you say, like it's it's like what nature loaded the gun, nurture pulled the trigger. But I don't understand what you're saying. AI is going to be taking people out of job. You begging your own stuff. Now you out of here. Like with the Kiosk, you used to have a let's just say ten lanes, Now they got four and half of them. You're doing it yourself. AI is taking jobs. But it's the same conversation of people that's saying, Okay, well there was a time where you used to use coal to burn your house or to give you heat. Do you still use coal? So the coal miners, do they have a job. Maybe a few of them do, right, a lot of them don't. Why because the job market switched right, and it was the people that understand while there's other products that will warm the house, what is that? So if you understood that trend, then that means you need to become become acquainted with certain things. That's going to change in the job market for my And this is not to support anything about AI. It's the support the community to say that there are trends that's happening in everything, just like safe example, in music, right, people are not printing plastic, they're not doing vinyl records anymore. So what do we say about that? Do we blame AI for that or do we blame the ever emerging job market. Well, I mean there's a question, it's just a questions. It's the job mark. Yeah, because before AI existed, everything was still pivoting things were you went from before AI, you went from horse and carriage to you know, to to playing trains and automobiles. So it's the pivoting of the growth of the world. But I still think AI is going to be changing jobs. But as humans we know that we need to say, Okay, if this job is going to be coming or is going down because AI, then I need to find another field. Which is the point, right, So I don't agree with So it's the job market, right, it's understanding the job market. Well, you know what time it is? Time for me to show me you ruady for me? Yes, sir, yes, sir, yes, time early? All right, all right, all right, So. It's your favorite show, We Talk Weekly.

So the Met Gala has announced that the Costume Institute's Spring twenty twenty six exhibition titled Costume Art, which is set to premiere, and the Met's new twelve thousand square foot Conde m NAS galleries. The exhibition and benefit are made possible by Jeff Bezos and Laurence Sanchez Bazos so Zoe Kravitz. She will co chair the Gala Host Committee also with other people, and some of the members include Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat, Misty Copeland, Sam Smith, Yeah, Tiana Taylor, and Asia Wilson. There's additional Host Committee members that'll be announced at a later date. And in twenty sixteen, Queen Bee Grace the Metropolitan Museum of Art steps donning a custom Jivan she hotcatour created by Ricardo Tisci. Tisshi, you know. I'm looking at you because fashion this is your lane. So Beyonce is gonna co chair alongside Benis Williams and Nicole Kidman. Which celebrities, Oh, this is what I was gonna ask you, which celebrities wore some of your favorite Met Gala carpet red carpet outfits? I mean, of all time. I don't know. That's hard. That's that's a tough one. It's a tough I had to think about that. I mean I got some I don't know. That's that one is hard. Yeah, yeah, I gotta think about that. Yeah. Interesting. I thought you was gonna go right to Brehanna. It's no, it's no question. I mean she had some show stopping looks. Yeah. Yeah, probably I'll stop right there. That's yeah, yeah, I would say, I would say, I would say Rihanna. You know, it's it's a lot a lot of people that have, like you know, Gray Stove steps and just like they're they're they're ensembles have been impeccable. Beyonce is one of them. Uh, Rihanna she's one of them. Cardi B of course, Nicki Mina she's another one. Ah man, It's so many, so many, so many. Yeah yeah, okay, yeah, all right. So Dallas, Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett she has to no one surprise, throwing her hat in the ring to run in the US Senate race, which shook up the Democratic Party. So as former Dallas Congressman Colin Iri made a last minute decision to drop out of the Senate race hours before the deadlines of father paperwork, Crockett made it official that she was running. So she launched her campaign and during her speech, you know, she's said a lot of things, but she also said that there were that the more that she saw the poll results, she said, I couldn't ignore the trends which were clear, both as it relates to the primary as well as the general election. She said, I could have played it safe and continued serving in the US House of Representatives for as long as my constituents would have me, but I don't choose to do that because Texas this moment where and now it's life or death. It's all or nothing. It's now anover. And then she also said, I'm the only candidate in this race who has served on the federal level, who has taken on this administration and sought accountability, accountability. I'm the only one who has gone toe to toe with Donald Trump. So basically following Crockett's speech and her launching her campaign. A new poll has shown that she's already leading her opponent, James Talerico, by fifty forty three percent. And then, and simultaneously, you have critics who are saying that the state of Texas has not elected a Democrat to the Senate since nineteen eighty eight, and Crockett is fighting a losing battle on this one, so they think that she's making a mistake. So what are your thoughts? Interesting? Yeah, yeah, I'm going to face it. I'm this Crockett. I know she she she's unapologetic, and she's fighting a good fight. Oh you want to hear what I have to say? Oh my goodness, Lord. All right, again, the statements that I make are not represented. So let me just say I admire Representative Crockett. I admire her passion, her fire. I admire her intelligence because she's really sure talking about what she's doing. The one thing that I will say is that I'm deeply, deep concerned. This goes back to President Biden when he was office and the mistakes that the Democrats make. We got a very shallow pooll to pull from right, and so we can't keep putting the same people these positions, like we're gonna wear her out. I mean, we wore Biden out. And so my concern is like who else are we grooming for these positions in the Democratic Party? And how are we making sure that we're more representative? Right? How are we getting more people involved as opposed to you know, it feels almost like Hollywood, like you see the same actor in all these different movies. Like you don't go no different actors, Like you can't like this dude. Thene just did fourteen movies this year. Same thing with Representative Crock. I feel like I love her. She's passing it. Like she said, she could have stayed in the position that she was in and her constituents would have been really, really well supported, and they would have supported her. She is stepping into the lions. Then by stepping into into Texas. It's not insurmountable. But I just want to see her get some more support and there'd be more opportunities and individuals who step up for the Democratic Party. Yes, but I love her. I love her. If I could go to Texas and vote, I would. I just continue to feel that the Democrats keep making the same mistakes the same mistakes, the same mistakes. It's like we if they didn't learn from this past election, then it's kind of like will you ever learn? And the mistakes are like what performative mistakes or just the same playbook. I'll leave it at that, just the same playbook. Could you expound? I really don't want to, but I mean, because what do you feel like? Is I mean, like, what's like the same playbook? Well, just really not listening to the people, you know, it's really not listening to the people. Is always feeling as if they already know better. Than the people. We're in a completely different than generation, completely different issues. We just had a long conversation about AI how that might even displace the job market, Like what do you actually think? I don't want to see. This is what I didn't want to do because I don't want to get on my soapbox. But it's kind of one of those things that it's kind of one of those things where it's like, yo, are you truly listening to what the people want? Are you truly seeing what the concerns are? We still have people that's down a block from us that's getting stopped by the stop by ice and just throwing in the truck and getting deported, and they now have they don't have anything to do with what's going on, and it's like, what are you guys doing? What are you guys doing? And what you said that you had an issue with seems to change and then I'm gonna I'm gonna stop right there. I take it. Those are those are valid concerns because you know. Your point is right about the Democratic Party making these mistakes. But the reality is you can go back decades and look at the concept of how many of you familiar with flyover states that part right, Yes, so just understanding this idea that Middle America was left behind. When you talk about Democrats not listening to people. The reason why Trump and the Republican Party have such a strong basis because they were not listened to for a very long time. Right, And it degenerates into this very right versus left argument, whereas if they had addressed it years ago, it wouldn't be so divisive. And in mind, mind you, America has always been divisive. My opinion is that we've never stopped fighting the Civil war. Right, it's just got more polite in different ways. But where we are right now, as a result of you know, the left not really listening to everybody and not making space of everybody. And I would I would even add to that in saying that the civil war we're fighting it. It became more devices between our own communities and they are wagging a dog between us, and we have to be more conscious that, Yo. We're fighting amongst our own communities. It used to it wasn't that way. We at the very least all whether we liked each other or not, whether you with Mock Wolm or Martin, we still have the same fight. Now we're fighting amongst each other. Now they're creating a not only a generational divide that you clearly can see, they're creating a gender divide. They're creating a battle between the sexes, venus versus Mars. They're dividing everything and right in front of our eyes, and we don't see it. And it's unfortunate. And a lot of that has to do with my own party. Well, you remember what I said earlier about we live in a meritocracy, the idea that you could pull yourself up by your bootstraps. But a lot of people don't know is that the origin of that phrase pull yourself up your bootstraps was actually an example of an impossible thing, and we had flipped it on his head to think, well, yeah, you should be able to pull yourself up. So we're being told that you can do the impossible in this situation. And what's happening when you talk about the divide in our community, in our communities, whether that's black or brown, or disenfranchised or poor, is that people just want a better position in the system that exists. They don't want to get rid of the system, right, And so yeah, we're gonna we're gonna fall apart, We're gonna divide each other because I see a way to get to the top, and I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go get mine. I'm gonna go get that bag, regardless of who it hurts. And so forty years ago, we were a little more consolidated because the opposition was that the opportunities were not there right right right. But this is the reason why we see us divided. Right right right right there, you go, you might you can just take it down, just stop it from the court. And I got I got a lot of you, all right, I'm a feel off. Yeah, so and me personally. I just, I mean, I saw a lot of like, you know, some people are excited and some people are just like and some people are just like. You know, she probably should have just stayed where she was, and I wish her well, you know, I think I think she's you know, awesome. You know, I think she's really really extremely intelligent, you know, and you know, I had my concerns too. I just I know it's a tough battle because you know, the numbers don't lie, you know, the the numbers don't lie. So we'll just see, we'll see, all right. So early on the show, we were this is the last story. But early on the show we had the conversation about AI and it's an advancement in the pros and cons and today's society. AI is involved in everything, even in Google. So if you google the phrase king of beefs, AI's overall number one pick. Is fifty cent, which is crazy. Type of beef's And fifty cent is like it has like choices, so it's like three and fifty is like the first one. Well, it was like fifty. Cent and then. Who was the it was, Oh man, I should have wrote the other two down. It was like. Sh I should have wrote the other two down. But anyway, fifty cent now it's kind of going back and forth with Marlon Wayans if you haven't heard about that. But now Marlon Wayans has gotten himself caught up into this beef with fifty cent. Marlon Wains did this interview on Los Angeles ninety two and it went viral after Marlin was asked about his thoughts on fifty cent doing the Netflix documentary Sewan CON's directing. So now fifty cent is going around and he's doing like all this you know, this press run and you just see him all over the place, and he's on everybody's you know, CBS, and he's on the Sherry Show and he's everywhere, and all you see is just him smiling. Being asked a question about the documentary. He's just smiling. Well, they asked Marlon what he thought about it, and then he's you know, it's going on and on, and he's like, just the way Puff is down on his luck. And fifty cent is kicking this man while he's down. So you know, if luck is ever turned on fifty cent, then you gotta be careful what you put out. So fifty cent caught wind of it, and then he he started to clap back and Marl, yeah, exactly, and then he was just like white Chicks, Marlon Wains from White Chicks, keep my name out your mouth. And then Marlon caught, you know, he saw, and then he clapped back, and he starts sharing a picture of fifty cent yeah, a hot tub, and then he put up a picture of him with this film twelve Years of Sleeve, and you know, just this back and forth and all that. But then, what what do you think, because now Marlon is getting backlash about people saying like, well, we're not going to watch any of his films now, like we're not watching White Chicks and we're not watching Scary Movie and all that because he's he threw his his two. Cents and. Money. Nobody does he deserve like this backlash was saying. I mean, I think because he went so deep into like almost like protecting, you know what I mean. It's like when you when you're in an eye like that, you do got to be mindful of what you say. Semantic matters. And I think when he made the comment about what you just said, the quote, it's like, Okay, people are looking at the documentary now and saying, well, what about the victims? You know what I mean? And he was a part of the Diddy parties and all that stuff, so it's like, you know, like you're you're you're really like riding with this guy because of celebrity is a type of thing, and I think people didn't like it. But as far as the funniness, honestly, I just saw the one fifty put up which Friday. Oh my gosh, oh it's it's definitely it's humorous. Yeah, it's funny. It's funny. I think fifty one, if there was a it was a TKO Like he didn't even do TKO. He knocked now. Hence the Google results why he number one? Yeah yeah so that's I mean, a I really does work. Yeah so so pretty much K died at them. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I like that. That was funny. That was cute sizzle. I'm your girl, Lauren sizzle, and that was the sizzle. No celebrity sizzle. Think of one that was that was just well, I think it's something real quick. Oh you do the King of Beef? Oh yeah, the King of Beef. Okay, I mean. That was the that was the bad. All right. So we talked these after the talking w pm A P Philadelphia one on six point five film. We talked after you Talk with the Boy and Beautiful, Beautiful, And that's what we talked weekly, y'all. Thanks for tuning in. Make sure y'all tune in next week. Next week, that's the holiday. Man. I don't think we got we gotta. I think we got tun in. You'll hear about it.
