In the first installment of Hardly Focused for 2026, Jack and Zach are none too pleased about artificial intelligence. For that matter, neither is musician Mark Tremonti, who believes AI-generated “fake art” will one day overtake the real thing. At least Bandcamp is doing it right by outright banning anything even remotely considered artificial.
Discussed elsewhere in this episode:
TimeOut magazine presents a list of the most inauthentic cities in the world, and Boston makes the list! As Tiffany Gomas might say, “That motherf**king city is NOT real!”
Becky joins Jack and Zach to discuss her Christmas haul of DOTS candy, much to Zach’s chagrin.
Actor Timothy Busfield (The West Wing, thirtysomething) surrenders to police following accusations of abuse.
