This week on Twist Happy Hour, Karen and Kate kick things off with hibiscus tea, Amalfi Spritzes, and a little homestead gardening chat before diving into one of the hottest tech controversies right now: racist AI.

From Elon Musk’s AI experiment “Grok” spiraling into anti-Semitic responses, to the growing role of government in shaping artificial intelligence, the conversation mixes humor with real concerns. What happens when AI gets facts wrong, spreads harmful stereotypes, or is used without proper checks and balances? Can prompts alone save us from bias? And what does it mean if future systems are built to erase history instead of reflect it?

Grab your cocktail (or a hibiscus iced tea 🌺) and join us for a lively, twisty conversation about AI, ethics, and the future of technology.
