Hey everybody, how's it going? Hope you

having a lovely day. Welcome to today's

episode of How You Getting [ __ ] I'm

your host, Louis Rossmann. You may have

heard that AI is more dangerous than a

nuclear weapon. And sometimes I agree

when I hear these words. The thing is,

being dangerous does not mean being

good. I'll give you an example. Let's

say we're talking about the military.

Blackberry here could be more dangerous

than a nuclear weapon if she took the

controls of a fighter jet while the

fighter jet was over enemy territory.

There are many things that Blackberry

could do as she tries to be cute and

roll around and get food that and

Steve's own experience, as my old data

recovery technician and manager can tell

you, if Blackberry goes in the desk

where data recovery is being done, she

actually can be exceptionally dangerous.

But that doesn't mean that that's

necessarily a good thing. And one of the

things that I see here is that it's it

is indeed dangerous if you have

something that's being relied on for a

more and more segments of society to

figure out whether somebody is a good

fit for a job, whether or not, I don't

know, a school in Iran should get bombed

that's filled with children, to have AI

make the decisions when it is so dumb

that it thinks that my channel has

sponsors. So, I got an email a few days

ago asking me if I would look into

something that Ground News has in their

privacy policy. And the email was a bit

pointed, and to be clear, there were

some comments in my community post about

this saying, "Oh, it's not an email like

that. Good. I wish more people send

emails like that to YouTubers that took

sponsors. I wish more people held the

people that take 10 or 20 or 60,000

dollars for a sponsor and then don't

come back to their audience to let them

know that that sponsor was a scam

accountable for what they did. Thank you

for doing that." The only problem here

is that

not true.

YouTuber and right to repair advocate

Louis Rossmann has frequently discussed

Ground News on his channel. Oh, really?

Both covering consumer rights stories

aggregated by the platform and

occasionally partnering with the news

companion service as a sponsor. Rossmann

often recommends Ground News to his

viewers. No, he [ __ ] doesn't. He

never has. I have never, in over 4,000

[ __ ] videos, ever mentioned Ground

News. And when you see how [ __ ]

stupid this is, when I hit show more,

it's literally showing videos from other

[ __ ] people. It's not even like I

said the word Ground News or I said I

hate Ground News or I made a joke

because I've joked before saying this

video was sponsored by uBlock Origin,

which is a joke because I want to get

more people to block ads. Like I'm not

sponsored by an open-source web browser

plugin. This isn't even me. I don't even

know this person. They they hated one

upper echelon like that that's not me.

That's not even close to me. I think we

just need to roll with it and start

making up stories about Louis Rossmann

like he's the most interesting man in

the world. Like how he operates a black

market maple syrup smuggling operation.

In his spare time he gives lectures on

ancient Egyptian history while knitting

sweaters. After releasing his

multi-platinum country album, he

traveled to New Zealand to climb Mount

Kilimanjaro. Don't forget the spaceship

he was navigating and single-handedly

saved the whole crew with the now

famously known Rossmann maneuver from

flying straight into the sun.

And and somebody made a point that we

should stop calling these hallucinations

and start calling them what they are

more accurately, which is delusions. Cuz

hallucination for it sounds kind of

cool. It sounds like something that

happens when you're on an acid trip.

Whereas delusion just sounds like

me at the age of 70 thinking that like

Britney Spears or Ariana Grande want to

go out with me. Delusion is much more

pointed. It's much more insulting and in

my opinion, it's much more appropriate.

You have And the thing that I asked here

with my my last line of this post, I

wonder how many of you have been denied

employment because the AI scanning your

resume made up something about you.

Because as you know, many human

resources departments now use AI to look

through resumes and they use this to

sort through people and figure out if

they're going to get a job. Imagine if

you lost the opportunity to get a great

job that you were qualified for and the

best applicant because the AI literally

made something up about you. I can live

with the idea of an AI making a decision

that I wouldn't agree with. It's much

more difficult pill to swallow that it

just made something up about you whole

cloth and it's still [ __ ] there. And

I'm very curious how long it's going to

take for this search result on Google to

return something else. Not only do I not

have a sponsor of Ground News, I have

not had a sponsor

Oh, wow. This is This is [ __ ] funny.

I just hit F5 and look what shows up.

Right to repair advocate often

collaborates with and provides

commentary for Ground News.

Google elucidated that I'm sponsored by

Ground News. That just showed up. I'm

very curious to see how long the

[ __ ] is going to stay up. I have not

had a sponsor on this channel for the

entire time I've had my YouTube channel.

I joined YouTube in 2011. It's 2026. I

have had zero sponsors. And that's very

important to me. The reason I like

having no sponsors is because you know

when you're listening to me say

something that it's coming from me. I'm

not thinking about how a brand is going

to perceive something that I say, nor am

I thinking about how future or other

brands that may fund my lifestyle are

going to perceive what I have to say. I

care about whether I can live with the

things that I say in this channel. If I

can live with the things I say, I'm

good. But this has always been a

discussion between me and the audience.

Nobody else. And I like it that way.

With a channel that has 450, 550 million

views at this point, I have missed out

on millions of dollars. If I'm being

real here, not shouting out somebody

every single video for the 3,000, 4,000

plus [ __ ] videos I've done over the

years, I have missed out an absolute

minimum of 1 to 2 million dollars. I

speak to other people on this platform

that have sponsorships on a regular

basis. And they tell me sometimes what

they get offered. Somebody got offered

almost $800,000. I'm not going to say

who. To do a couple of shorts showing

how Chat GPT can help you make cool

things on their YouTube channel. There's

a lot of [ __ ] money that I have

missed out on by doing this. And one of

the benefits of that though is the

reputation. I missed out on millions of

dollars, but at the very least I have a

trustworthy reputation. Whether or not

you agree or disagree with the things

that I say, whether or not you like or

dislike me, the things that I say are

said because I believe them to be true,

not because I am trying to say something

to cater to a sponsor or not say

something to cater to a sponsor. Because

what you don't say is as important as

what you do say. So when Google comes

out and has this [ __ ] in their

[ __ ] results, that essentially takes

the thing that literally has cost me

millions of dollars and throws it down

the toilet. Because I don't know how

many other brands they're doing this

for. How many other brands have they

claimed that I have been [ __ ]

sponsored by when I have not. This is

literally the number one benefit of

those millions of dollars that I have

missed out on over the past 15 years by

never doing an ad read on this channel.

That I have a reputation that whether

you like me or you dislike me, whether

you think that I'm an [ __ ] or you

think that I'm a hero, that what I say

is what I say. I believe it. I say it

regardless of what anybody else is going

to think about it. My conversation with

the audience is untouched by what some

advertiser or marketer may think of what

I have to say. The number one thing that

comes out of the millions of dollars

that I missed out on is my reputation.

And right here, Google is getting rid of

that on the first [ __ ] result with

[ __ ] that isn't even true.

[ __ ] you.
