About this episode

S9-E20 Excel Forever, AI Failures, and Hotel TV Chaos In this episode of The Dawg & Scoot Show, the hosts engage in a relaxed, wide-ranging discussion covering technology trends, corporate life, and funny personal anecdotes including:  AI vs. Excel: Legacy 2013 Excel spreadsheets continue to dominate corporate workflows despite AI advances. Transcript Blunders: AI meeting tools frequently hallucinate deadlines and mishear names, like turning "Ravi" into "Rod". "Ellie" the AI Order-Taker: AI drive-thru and customer service bots confidently fail at simple requests. Job Automation: Repetitive tasks like cold calls and digital filing are rapidly being automated, forcing a shift to new skills. Starlink & Space Costs: Falcon 9 dropped launch costs to ~$1,600/kg (down from $50,000/kg), driving direct-to-cell satellite tech.Hotel TV Chaos: Blindly wiggling a hotel TV power button to find hidden volume controls leads to absurd banter. #ComedyPodcast #commentary #AI #FunnyMoments #hotelTV #PodcastLife #Humor #viou
