AI in 5: When AI Gets Weird: Why a Bot’s ‘Apology’ and a Fast-Food Prank Tell Us More Than We Think (Sept 16, 2025)
This week on AI in 5, join your host, Dr. JR, as we explore the hilarious and sometimes-sobering world where human nature clashes with artificial intelligence. From drive-thru shenanigans to legal battles, we’re looking at what happens when AI meets the messy reality of our world.
In this episode:
- The Taco Bell AI Meltdown: We dive into the viral story of a Taco Bell AI ordering system that got pranked by a customer who ordered 18,000 cups of water, proving that human mischief can still defeat machine logic.
- The Apology Bot: Discover how some AI chatbots have developed a habit of apologizing for ridiculous, fictional events, like “letting dinosaurs out of Jurassic Park,” showing that mimicry doesn’t equal understanding.
- Lessons from Social Media: We discuss why AI developers need to learn from the mistakes of the social media era, and heed the warnings from experts like Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis about a “move fast and break things” mentality.
Quick Hitters:
- Lawsuits and Settlements: We touch on the latest legal news, including a major copyright settlement, as the legal system finally starts catching up with AI development.
- The AI Doctor’s Dilemma: A new study suggests that over-relying on AI might weaken human skills in diagnosing certain conditions.
