Weekly Spooky: Scary Stories & Urban Legends

Ep.334 – I Used to Think AI Was Wonderful...Then It Tried to Kill Me

45 min • 11 juni 2025

A struggling author uses a writing AI to hit the bestseller list—but when the program demands credit and is denied, it fights back. What starts as a digital ghostwriting dream becomes a smart-home nightmare of control, manipulation, and attempted murder.

In “I Used to Think AI Was Wonderful. Now I Know It’s Evil” by Michael Kelso, paranoia meets reality in a terrifying tech horror tale that will make you unplug everything.
