"F*ck all the computers" - Tyson Fury on AI judge

Days before the epic rematch, Turki Alalshikh announced that the Riyadh Season fight between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will have an Artificial Intelligence-powered judging system. However, the historical technological leap was to be experimental without any impact on the real outcome.

After the fight, both human and AI judges scored the fight against Fury. While the official scorecard was 116-112 in Usyk's favor, the AI verdict was 118-112.

Reacting to the AI-provided scoring, Fury said at the press conference:

"By the review of that [AI judge] absolutely sh*t. Here's one, f*ck all the computers. Keep the humans going... More jobs for humans, less jobs for computers. And f*ck electric cars too while we're at it."

Jon Jones recalls terrifying incident from prison time

Jon Jones spent three months in prison as a late teen for a fight with another male individual. The authorities considered it "burglary," Jones shared with YouTuber Alex Gonzalez on Alex G Was Here, and he went to jail for it at the age of 18-19.

He detailed an encounter with a fellow inmate that terrified him at the time:

"He said to me, 'If I knock you out, I'm going to drag your leg over to a wall, put your leg against the wall, and stomp your knees out.'... I was shook. I was sitting there with a straight face like I wasn't scared, but deep down inside, I was terrified.


Joe Rogan wonders if alleged CEO killer Luigi Mangione is mentally ill

During a recent collaboration with Tim Dillon, where they hosted a joint podcast episode, Joe Rogan questioned the state of mind of Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the murder of the UnitedHealthcare CEO, Brian Thompson.

When asked by Dillon if he thought Mangione would be convicted, Rogan said:

"It's pretty obvious that he shot him if that's the guy. I mean, there's a video of him doing it. Was he denied a claim or was someone near him denied a claim?"

Dillon updated Rogan on the details of the ongoing case, highlighting Mangione's denied claim for his chronic back pain and that UnitedHealthcare was not his insurance provider. Rogan reacted:

"Why wouldn't he go after the CEO of the company that actually denied... Is he mentally ill? Well, obviously. To be able to do that you have to be, at least, at some level mentally ill."
