    Is this supposed to be funny?

    Hard to comprehend how we've gone from Norm MacDonald being so relentlessly bold he was fired, to this sterility, in 30 years.

      Is it, though?

      Wouldn't it be more strange if the former didn't eventually lead to the latter?

        Listen to a Dario interview. I think it's pretty on the mark

          I didn't watch the OP. I just know most actually controversial content almost never makes it to broadcast these days.

          Hating on AI or its CEO doesn't seem very risky or controversial (for now [0])
