Ahead of a Syracuse, New York, stop on his “Bigger & Weirder” tour, Yankovic revealed to Syracuse.com in an interview published this week that he was offered “a nice pile of money” to appear in a commercial for business-focused software, but he backed out once he realized the ad would involve AI. “I’m not a fan of AI,” he said.
Yankovic is well into the “I don’t fucking give a fuck” stage of life and could easily have just said “Fuck yeah” like a certain pot smoking rapper performing at a controversial political event or the comedians that are OK with blood money.
I am happy people like him exist.
edit: typo/spaling fix
fairly sure hes been like this all his life.
I dunno. There was that one point in his life where he alienated all of his friends because of his infatuation with Madonna. Though I guess he got better after killing Pablo Escobar but refusing to join Madonna in becoming drug lords, for which she had him assassinated.
He’s been in that stage since before Another One Rides The Bus… so like, always.
