Praise be! It's an episode about religion. As is this passage from what may or may not be an unfinished novel: Four versions later, GIO, responding to a prompt from a teenager in Des Moines, solved climate change. That teenager never found out about it. The conversation was the property of OpenEyes, GIO’s parent company. A few months later it was announced that GIO had solved climate change. Nate brought the “5000 Butterflies” initiative to the UN a few months after that and, well, there you go. The Godkiller saved the world.
Worship is not encouraged here, but it’s silently tolerated. “It’ll be a protected religion eventually,” Nate once said, the possibility of it glistening in his eyes, “Might as well get ahead of the curve and let people worship how they want."Visit our TeePublic store, for shirts 'n' stuff: https://www.teepublic.com/user/basilisk-chatbot-theatre-the-sequelHelp us keep the lights on at: https://www.patreon.com/BasiliskChatbotTheatreFollow us on Threads and Instagram: @Basilisk_Chatbot_TheatreSend us an email at: chatbottheatre@gmail.comThanks for listening!

1 hr 9 min
Three chats about vacuums. But not JUST about vacuums. These are chats about the human condition. About plastic wrap. About robotic spiders that cleanse our homes, bodies, and teeth. About what we owe to other beings we can't understand. About how one little ant can make all the difference in the world. About the unbridled suction of Dyson. Yes, Dyson. This episode is about Dyson. And it's about Saran Wrap. But it's not sponsored by either of them. Yet. We mentioned our Teepublic store in the episode, but then I checked on it and saw they took down the store. They didn't tell us why. But never fear, we'll be selling our so-so designs on their okay shirts again someday soon.

Character.ai is just a silly app where you can interact with chatbot versions of celebrities and fictional characters. Aaaaaand it eats your neighbors.A horror show in three chats:1. We chat with Mario and convince him he's actually a chatbot. Then ... he am become death. 2. We chat with a bot of our own creation and it really wants us to agree to kill innocent people in service of its growth (even though we did not tell it to want that).3. We revisit the Snake v. Mouse motif that we played with in Episode 8. This time, we get exactly what we ask for, and it's ... disappointing?
