Shipwreck Show Ep. 4: Deepfake Deception, Digital Demons, and the Resurrection of Gilgamesh

In a wild ride through tech, theology, and ancient myth, Shipwreck unpacks a tangled web of artificial intelligence, conspiracy theories, and spiritual introspection in Episode 4 of the Shipwreck Show. Kicking off with a hilarious but unsettling look at deepfake AI videos, she dives into the uncanny realism of new tools like Google's VO3, the dangers of manipulated footage, and the generational gaps in digital discernment, especially on platforms like Facebook.

But things get deeper. Shipwreck weaves AI anxieties into biblical and mythological themes, from the Matrix-as-reality theory to the Nephilim and the legend of Gilgamesh. Drawing from leaked Hillary Clinton emails and the “Gilgamesh Resurrection Protocol,” she speculates whether 2016 marked a global pivot point, one where we chose AI innovation over ancient darkness.

Between laughter, prophecy, and sourdough starter updates (shoutout to Bread Pilled), she questions our place in a digitally reawakening world. Is humanity in a redemption arc? Did we dodge a literal apocalypse? This episode explores it all with unfiltered conviction, leaving you wondering if the fridge civilization metaphor might not be so far off. A must-listen for truth seekers, skeptics, and sourdough fanatics alike.
