if Chad did write the whole of the AI George Carlin thing, that makes it infinitely more depressing that all of the jokes I’ve seen from that shitty special were incredibly bland centrist horseshit, like a meeting room of capitalist shitheads workshopped a bunch of edgy jokes but not so edgy that someone might get offended into not paying them

but let’s be perfectly honest. these fuckheads will say whatever they think might give them a leg up in the impending lawsuit, because these supposed comedians are operating like a crime-as-a-service Silicon Valley startup. they entered the market with a product (the Tom Brady special), pulled out in response to utterly predictable legal backlash, lawyered up, came back with a functionally identical v2 (the George Carlin special), and are now trying to find a legal loophole or create a precedent that’d protect their work on some grounds, regardless of the facts behind how that work was produced. just like Uber entering into a new market, they’ll repeat this process again and again until concessions are made.

I can’t wait for these chucklefucks to drop the comedian act and start claiming trade secrets in response to discovery.
