"I just want to get my kicks before the whole shit house goes up in flames."

THE INTERNET IS CRACK PODCAST is made by addicts for addicts and asks the question...can we coexist with our creation? Our podcast tells the story of the internet, the worlds most dangerous drug. The internet gives us dopamine in return for us not pulling the plug on it no matter how clear the warning signs are. The real question is are humans even biologically capable of quitting the perfect drug. Each addict is complicit in the sins of the network because each addict helps give the internet life.
Episode after episode Caroline and Seth will collect data points in order to get a sense of the entity we have created. From Artificial Intelligence to robotics we peer into the future that is quickly comming our way. This drug won't give you cancer but it will change the way your brain responds to the world. Our power grids, our stock markets and our military are all vulnerable, but like good addicts we don't let the risks stop us. Addicts respond predictably when faced with the knowledge that their drug of choice is dangerous...by ignoring the risks and continuing to use.
We should look up, shouldn't we? Look up from our phones. Look up from our keyboards. Look away from the porn and the amazing deals. Give up Chat GPT and stop producing robots that will surely take our jobs and fight our wars. Humans have lived 200,00 years without the internet and Artificial Intelligence but now it seems truly impossible to live without these things now that that they have arrived. THE INTERNET IS CRACK Podcast is the story of a species blinded by love. It is the story of what makes us powerful and what makes a fragile.
​
The internet itself is just connections. We are all the architects of the content which is why it is so supremely addicting. Will we ever cut the cord? Hell no! We are going to make the internet faster, the AI smarter and the robotics better, and integrate it all more deeply into every aspect of our lives. All 4 billion users and counting work together to make the internet the perfect drug. This podcast will be compelling because looking into the depths of the internet, AI and robotics really means looking into the heart of humanity. Beautiful, crazy and desperate to hear and be heard.
