Dr. Scott Strong is back and we discuss AI, music, creativity, opportunities, pitfalls and cash cows. Plenty of other topics too, like bitcoin and tariffs. Spoiler Alert: apparently we are not going to get a Viking Death Metal opening jingle...it costs too much. But clearly AI services are making bank on this kind of stuff.

Wait, ...what? Was that a reference to the Jimmy Carter presidency? Ryan and Charlie discuss this past week in agriculture regarding planting progress and markets... BUT Ryan is caught off guard when Charlie compares the current tariffs to the grain embargo of the late 70s. Plus, this is the week that local county commissions make public whether they are truly pro-agriculture or just looking at a cash grab when they vote on rezoning ag acreage to heavy industrial for a data "farm".

We're a week out from some USDA survey data being laid on us. Normally, the Prospective Plantings report is intriguing, but not overly exciting. Could this year be different? And did you know that data is being collected from your land and on your farming practices without your consent? And you can't do anything about it. Yeah...we're just full of good news this week.

Ryan is joined this week by Dr. Scott Strong, author of the article "AI Dependency Trap: Sacrificing Wisdom for Automation, A Costly Future?" We discuss the rapid ascent of AI in multiple industries, and the ramifications in all industries, including agriculture. And there may be opportunities for those that are driven to succeed in life rather than settling for the WALL-E tech trap.
