What happens when Barbie becomes your kid's AI best friend?

Look, we're already watching kids lose basic human skills because they can Google everything. Now Mattel wants to stick ChatGPT into toys so your eight-year-old can have deep conversations with Optimus Prime about life's meaning. Stanford says nobody under 18 should be touching this stuff, but apparently corporate profits trump child psychology. We're about to witness the first generation that never has to imagine anything because their toys will do it for them. Meanwhile, we're racing toward a 15-hour work week where robots do everything, leaving men, especially, scrambling for purpose in a world that no longer needs their Protestant work ethic. The future looks like either Ready Player One or we all become batteries for our robot overlords - and honestly, I'm not sure which is worse.

Listen now to discover how to protect your kids' humanity in an increasingly artificial world.

• Why AI-powered toys represent a bigger threat than Terminator's Skynet
• How ChatGPT integration removes children's need for imagination and creativity
• The concerning link between AI exposure and mental health breakdowns in young people

Could AI robots be better at diagnosing you than your actual doctor?

Healthcare AI sounds promising until you realize it can't tell the difference between your seasonal allergies and that weird parasite crawling up places it shouldn't be. We sit down with an actual MD, Dr. Ajit Barron-Dhillon, to discuss the terrifying reality of AI in healthcare, why digital diagnosis might make us dumber, and how insurance companies could weaponize medical AI to deny you even more coverage.

Three main benefits from this episode:

1. Learn the real limitations of AI in medical diagnosis and when you should still see an actual human
2. Discover how AI could be useful as a bridge between therapy appointments for mental health support
3. Understand the potential dangers of automated healthcare in our profit-focused medical system

Check out this episode of The Fit Mess to discover if robots will be replacing your doctor anytime soon.

• AI's accuracy in medical diagnosis compared to human doctors (77% vs 66%)
• The dangers of relying on AI for self-diagnosis instead of seeking professional help
• How regional and seasonal factors impact medical diagnoses that AI might miss
• The potential for insurance companies to use AI to minimize costs and deny coverage
• Using AI as a mental health resource between therapy sessions
• The importance of human clinical observation in catching rare or unusual conditions
• How AI might make healthcare more automated but potentially less personalized
• The challenges of AI interpreting medical data like blood work and lab results correctly
• The "Google effect" where people search for information that confirms what they want to hear
• The potential for collaborative approaches between AI and human medical professionals
