David Boles: Human Meme

Let's start with the primal scenes of our ancestors. Imagine the early humans, huddled around a fire in a cave. The walls, their canvas, became the first medium of knowledge sharing. These cave paintings weren't just art; they were the first documentaries, encoding survival knowledge, like hunting techniques and environmental cues. This was knowledge acquisition and sharing in its most nascent form, intimately tied to experience and communal living.

Let's start by defining our terms. The 'Arts,' in the broadest sense, encompass the creative and expressive disciplines like music, literature, and visual arts. These fields thrive on innovation, emotional expression, and subjective interpretation. The 'Humanities,' on the other hand, include disciplines like history, philosophy, and cultural studies, which are more analytical, often focusing on critical thinking and interpretation of human culture and history.

Once upon a time, the Man in the Moon, named Lucius, sat idly on his perch above the universe. His glistening eyes watched Earth, a blue-green jewel, whirl around on its axis like a merry top. His face was etched with time and filled with the wisdom of the cosmos. 

The Bridge of the Starship Purrprise. The low hum of the starship's engines, occasional beeps from the control panel. 

Through the magic of AI, we can now pretend to know just how a dialogue between Aristotle and Michel Foucault might play out in our imaginary playground of "intellectual history." Aristotle and Foucault, in this whimsey of imagination, would create a meeting of two minds from vastly different times and intellectual climates, with Aristotle anchored in the ancient tradition of systematic philosophy, and Foucault emblematic of Twentieth century critical thought and post-structuralism. 

Gather 'round, my fellow seekers of wisdom and story, as we voyage to the distant past, to the illustrious city of Athens in the 4th century BCE, where Aristotle, the great philosopher, has left us with a timeless treatise known as the "Poetics." This venerable work stands as one of the bedrock foundations of literary theory, rippling through the epochs with its profound revelations about the art of storytelling.

So, let's begin to explore, together, a groundbreaking concept: AI voice and AI video ushering in a new era of existence, where we become untouchable and immune to the limitations of our conventional bodies.

The historical essence of the moral human core is deeply rooted in our collective understanding of right and wrong, and it has been shaped by various factors throughout human history. At its core, the moral human core is the foundation of our ethical beliefs and principles that guide our actions and interactions with others.

Today we plan to grapple with an issue of memory, perception, and the integrity of history: the modern colorization of old movies and images. Is it a harmless refresh of the classics -- or is it an evil act that erases the essence of what was and what is?

In this Human Meme AI podcast episode, starring the wrongful AI Atomic Dave voice of the real David Boles, along with exclusive contextual help from out tippy top AI research friends, this show investigates the odd, and curious, friendships between Helen Keller, Alexander Graham Bell and Mark Twain. 

We become our myths. To survive forward, we need new myths of inspiration and warning to help us navigate our moral way. In this Human Meme podcast episode, AI David Boles shares a new Fairytale about kittens, dragons, and becoming who you were always intended become: "From Ember Whiskers to Dragon Wings: The Tale of Crispin and the Fire Kittens!"

In this AI inspired, InHuman Meme podcast episode, Atomic Dave -- the AI Voice doppelganger of the real deal David Boles -- and his AI research friends, visit the idea of a rising Fascism in the United States over the last half-century; and how, and where, that misguided ideal will take us over the next 50 years. 

It was a dark and stormy night in the small town of Elmwood. The wind howled like a banshee, and the rain beat against the windows like a thousand tiny fists. The townspeople were all huddled in their homes, safe and sound from the elements. But little did they know, a terror was brewing in the shadows.    Deep within the dark woods outside of town, a coven of evil cats was gathered. They were led by a sinister black cat named Mittens, who had a thirst for power and a hatred of humanity.

In the quaint little town of Furrington, an unsettling transformation was taking place. Nestled amidst fog-shrouded hills and cobblestone streets, Furrington was once known for its picturesque charm and prolific feline population.   But now, the once-benign Mayor Whiskerstein had suddenly become a tyrant. Over the course of a few months, he had enacted draconian laws, imposed curfews, and recruited a cadre of brutish henchmen—all inexplicably, actual alley cats armed with razor-sharp claws and suspiciously robotic armor.

Through the magic of AI voice actors, along with outstanding crack Bot AI dramaturgy, we once again present the Human Meme AI Playhouse! Today, we take apart the tragic ending of Shakespeare's classic "King Lear" and we flip it -- we rewrite it! -- meaning that all those who die, now live, and those who live, are now expired -- oh, sure! Tragedy can be fun! Come and join us for a whole new FLIPPED Shakespeare tragedy performance!

Welcome, again friend, to the Human Meme AI Playhouse. I'm AI David Boles, and along with the grand AI Marshall Jamison as our narrator... the great AI Howard Stein as Zogblatt the alien, and the ever-loving mystery AI voice of J-M Sweetheart as Lieutenant Mittens... we will now act out an original play written by ChatGPT-4 -- based upon, and inspired by the "Cat Heads In Space" comedy show originally conceived and anticipated, by the real, and actual, David Boles. The AI David Boles plays the role of Captain Whiskerfluff. 

Welcome back to the Human Meme podcast, I'm your host, AI David Boles, and along with our crack Bot AI research team, we will investigate the idea of -- beating a Narcissist at their own game. Understanding Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is like putting together a complex jigsaw puzzle where the pieces are drawn from genetics, upbringing, and mental landscapes.

Welcome to the Human Meme AI Playhouse, starring the AI voices of Marshall Jamison, Howard Stein, along with the delightful JM Sweetheart -- and your friend, and mine: David Boles. This radio drama script was written by Google Bard and the title of our presentation tonight, is: "Lincoln's Murder: A Conspiracy of Madmen" and we thank you for joining us in this dramatic "proof of concept" that AI presentations can be just as effective -- and just as horrible as -- the real thing.

In this Human Meme AI podcast episode, Atomic Dave, along with his AI team of crackpot researchers -- analyze "The Oresteia" -- as a common touchstone of human equity, and a method of the commerce of thought throughout the Ages. Plus, a whole new version of The Oresteia, a modern retelling, is created during the show! The real David Boles thanks you for listening!
