Use of AI
We use AI-generated music to lead in and out of a commercial break. While we love the advances in this technology, we don't advocate replacing artists with AI. Category5 / Data Drive supports human artists, such as / @ohpal and / @lebrockmusic

Fun Facts
• At 22:08 Robbie quotes / caseyneistat who said "there's nothing more satisfying in life than surprise and delight. Surprise: I was not expecting that. Delight: I like that." Casey is one of several filmmakers who have inspired Robbie.
• At 24:49 Robbie refers to IDDB. He meant the old CDDB.
• At 27:05 Jeff mentions Robbie had ROAR. He's referring to Rock of Ages Radio; an early Internet-based radio station operated by Robbie in the late 1990's. It was a successful online radio station, complete with artist interviews, music, spots and bumpers. It was operated by an application Robbie developed, named GEN. GEN worked as a pseudo Music Director, much in the same way the new application (a full re-write of GEN using modern AI techniques and Python code) does. Robbie shut down ROAR in the early 2000's to pursue other ventures.
• At 27:56 Robbie refers to a Linux distro that turns an old computer into a dedicated CD audio ripper. It was called VortexBox, and here's our video about it: • 338 - Building a VortexBox - #Cat5TV Categ...
