Oh, my God.

You're waking up with Sarah and Vinny.

Oh, look at that.

Ellis at 973.

Ladies and gentlemen, I now would like to introduce to you the Bay Area's premiere, number one reporter.

Oh, I thought you were the number one reporter.

I'm being generous right now.

You're like the anchor in this scenario, right?

Being humble and trying to. My bad. Okay, we'll fix this in post. God, Sarah. Sorry. Try again. Ladies and gentlemen, let me please introduce to you the Bay Area's premier reporter, the number one reporter, NBC Bay Area's Scott Budman. Welcome to the show, Scott.

Thank you.

Stop up and the person, not the dog.

You're welcome.

Happy to say.

Listen, I want to begin with, I know that you travel, you know, you travel the Bay Area,

and I know you also just came back from a fact-finding mission on the East Coast.

I wonder if anyone that you've come across is feeling the way I am with AI as these stories

are now crossing my desk every day.

And I don't know where I was the day we voted to release this Cracken, but I missed that vote.

And I, and I am truly, I hear it from every, like the people I'm surrounded by and more have this thought process that is, well, we're screwed.

And I, and it feels like, I'm utterly impotent.

I just go, what, okay, I didn't have a say in this thing coming into my life.

And as it expands its tentacles, I find myself going, we have no say in this.
