How's this for cool? We're hanging with Scott Weldy and Dan Goldbacher who study and work with birds of prey at the Orange County Bird of Prey Center.

Joining us from the Irvine Ranch Conservancy is David Raetz David produced this episode. To learn more about the OCBoPC ocbpc.org The Orange County Bird of Prey Center (OCBPC) is a state- and federally-licensed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Orange County, CA, dedicated to treating and rehabilitating injured raptors and returning them to the wild. We believe that education is the best long-term solution to prevent and mitigate many of the challenges that raptors face and that raptors play an integral role in the balance of nature. We reintroduce raptors under specific conditions: following state and federal guidelines, respecting current wild raptor population cycles and considering environmental factors.

Brad Hutchings returns to discuss AI. Pete A Turner of the Break It Down Show has been working to use AI in some of his projects. He tried to find the Median debut for all baseball players. He did the work to find Detroit Tiger phenom, Jim Proctor who today is the middle player in all players, based on debut date, in MLB history (per baseball reference). Pete Writes about Jim in an article on X. Brad and Pete discuss Grok's inability to find the median player. Pete tried a few other AIs...they just don't work this way. Brad notes that AIs will give loquacious answers, but the results are more fantasy than fact. Then a funny test happens...what happens when you ask an AI, while offline, to reference an online resource...well...AI does a performance of giving an answer. This is a fun one.
