In 1965, Mr. Harvey broadcast "If I Were the Devil." Although it has been over a half a century since the broadcast, Mr. Harvey's words describe our current times well. I've had several comments that this was created with AI. This is absolutely not true. Mr. Harvey recorded this in 1965. I am in no way a participant of, or in favor of artificial intelligence to think for me or to create content for me.

Paul Harvey was a regular listen back when.
ReplyDeleteAI is a media buzz word. They could have used the term AI in the 60's as well as today. Now any computer program is called AI. Sure the computers do a little more but still just programs.
ReplyDeleteI can remember my Dad would say "sit down and listen (to Paul Harvey), you might learn something" ....
ReplyDeleteI miss that guys broadcasts.
ReplyDeleteOl' Paul knew a thing or two.
ReplyDeleteYup. I would add Ray Bradbury's FAHRENHEIT 451. Read Beatty's soliloquy to Guy Montag. If that is not 2024 America, I'll quit drinking.
ReplyDeleteAmen Bright Eyes, Amen! Mike Rowe might be his worthy successor.
ReplyDeleteI remember it. Was broad cast on the radio. We were just finishing milking our cows. Did not realize what I heard at the time as I was 10 or so.
ReplyDeleteI consider this to be his best one-liner and observation: Self-government without self-discipline will not work. He nailed it.
