This SpongeBob Episode From 2025 Just Became Terrifyingly Real

Okay, so this is genuinely unsettling.

Ten months ago, SpongeBob aired an episode where AI robots replaced human workers overnight. Reporters got fired mid-broadcast. Entire careers ended in seconds. And everyone who got replaced ended up at this depressing place called "Old Reporters' Row" just... existing as obsolete humans.

Then this week at CES 2026, everything in that episode actually happened.
I'm talking AI replacing journalists, content creators, voice actors—entire industries getting automated while tech CEOs celebrate "innovation." And the wildest part? SpongeBob didn't just predict this ONCE. They've been warning us about robot takeovers since 2002.

In this video, I break down every parallel between "Smartificial Intelligence" and what just went down at CES. The fake news. The mass layoffs. The authenticity crisis. The terrifying realization that nobody's job is actually safe.
Because here's the thing: the episode doesn't have a happy ending. It has a warning. And we're living in it right now.
