WEBVTT 1 00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:33.399 You know the world of deceit. Telling the truth is 2 00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:38.079 a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show. 3 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:47.520 As the clock strikes thirteen, It's Tuesday, the ninth of December, 4 00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:51.719 of our Lord twenty five. Well, today we're going to 5 00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:54.880 take a lot of look at the artificial intelligence. Who 6 00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:58.200 actually have in the third hour a guest, a best 7 00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:02.479 selling author. He's done twenty five book. He's an MD 8 00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:06.239 who works in neuroscience. The book is the twenty first 9 00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:11.040 Century Brain. And he's been a consultant or lecturer at 10 00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.719 the CIA, at the NSA, the Pentagon other places, so 11 00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:20.040 he knows something about where this stuff is headed. We're 12 00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:21.959 going to have to see what he has to say 13 00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:24.439 here about this. But we're going to begin with what 14 00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:31.079 is going on in Ukraine? Is this the beginning of 15 00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.319 the end? Are these people going to be able to 16 00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.359 sustain this? Russia is rapidly advancing, even though Vilensky's not 17 00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.319 even taking a look at the plant. And so we're 18 00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.200 going to start with news. We're going to also we 19 00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.719 have some interesting updates in pharmaceutical areas as well as 20 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:53.239 an update in terms of Trump's tariffs. Are they working? 21 00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.040 And he finally got around to giving some breadcrumbs to 22 00:01:57.079 --> 00:01:59.480 the soybean farmers. But we're going to take a look 23 00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:03.519 at the big picture of the sy stuff. So we're 24 00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:08.120 back already. It ended, that's okay, all right, Well let's 25 00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:12.960 start with the news here, and Trump said out loud, 26 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.240 he said, I'm disappointed that Zlynsky hasn't even read my 27 00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:18.439 peace proposal. And I understand how you feel is I'm 28 00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.039 disappointed that Trump hasn't even read the Constitution that he 29 00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:25.599 swored uphold. Maybe he doesn't like it, just like Zelinski 30 00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:30.319 doesn't like peace. His frustration continues to show, especially after 31 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.039 high hopes for his twenty eight point peace plan. You know, 32 00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:36.240 we had this ten point piece plan between us and 33 00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:38.400 the government. It's called the Bill of Rights. Tell you 34 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.479 what this is where we draw the line with what 35 00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:43.879 the government does and with our natural rights, our God 36 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:48.439 given rights. But they didn't respect that either. So he said, 37 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.400 I'm a little bit disappointed that Zelinsky hasn't even read 38 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:56.719 the proposal yet. Well, he doesn't want peace, and neither 39 00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:01.039 do the European leaders as well. As he's saying that 40 00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:06.840 you've got the leaders of Britain, France, Germany all meeting 41 00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:10.080 with Zelensky to him, keep fighting, keep fighting, We're going 42 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:12.680 to win this thing. Except that's not really what's happening, 43 00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.280 he said, as people love it, but he hasn't. Russia's 44 00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:20.680 fine with it, he said, and the assessment of what's 45 00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:23.599 going on with Ukraine. Of course, his follows after his 46 00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:27.080 son in law Jared Kushner and his former business partner. 47 00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.039 I guess you could say Steve Witkoff, who now his 48 00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:33.960 emissaries for geopolitics. I mean, hey, if you can negotiate 49 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.599 a big real estate deal in New York, that's most 50 00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:40.520 of the stuff is about real estate, right, whether you're 51 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:42.680 talking about Gaza or you're talking about Ukraine, you're still 52 00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:46.560 talking about people killing each other over land. And so 53 00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:51.479 he said, they were not. They didn't think that Zelenski 54 00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.280 was really serious about this. Moscow, as I point out yesterday, 55 00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:01.199 really likes the document that was released, the first NSS, 56 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:06.919 which is the National Defense Security Agreement that's there basically 57 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:11.479 laying out the Trump administration's perspective on foreign policy and 58 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.360 national security. And I liked what it had to say. 59 00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:17.920 I just don't believe that Trump is going to stick 60 00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:21.279 to any of it. But Russia reported on it. You 61 00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:25.040 didn't have any reporting really from mainstream media here in America. 62 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:31.079 So the Russians liked it because, as they pointed out 63 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.519 in the Zero Hedge article, the document characterizes europe as 64 00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:39.519 weak well, warning of an unpredictable, disunified atmosphere on the 65 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:44.639 European continent, where, in desperation, European leadership could overreact and 66 00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:47.800 escalate a war with Russia. You think, I mean, they've 67 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:51.600 been doing that upfront in so many different ways. You 68 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.720 got fred Mertz in Germany, and you've got Kere Starmer 69 00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:58.639 in Britain, as well as Macron and France. They're all saying, 70 00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:01.800 you know, get ready for massive casualties, and we've got 71 00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:05.240 to we've got to draft more people in the army. 72 00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:08.680 I mean, they're doing everything is essentially amounts to a 73 00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:13.240 declaration of war already. So Donald Trump's first in assistance, 74 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:17.040 returning to office, blames European officials for thwarting US efforts 75 00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:19.720 to in the war in Ukraine and accuses governments of 76 00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:25.560 ignoring a large European majority quote unquote who want peace. Well, 77 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.079 I agree with Trump on that. The Trump administration, I 78 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:31.519 just don't trust him on any of this stuff. Meanwhile, 79 00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:35.360 there might be another way to have peace, and that 80 00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:37.920 is for Russia to when and it looks like that 81 00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:40.920 may be happening. One way to have it lasting piece 82 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:43.959 is that we're going to have a lasting peace. Well, 83 00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:48.000 you could end the NATO provocation that is called Ukraine 84 00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:52.519 is a geopolitical construct that, as I pointed out before, 85 00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:56.319 the Ukraine was an area of Russia, an area of 86 00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:00.560 Russia for four hundred years, and breaking that off as 87 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.720 a separate entity and then creating a coup to change 88 00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:08.560 the government that then began a civil war that happened 89 00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:13.279 in twenty fourteen, eleven years ago. So that is a 90 00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:17.879 construct of NATO who decided after the Soviet dish Union 91 00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:22.160 that they would eliminate Russia as a power. And so 92 00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:25.959 this has been a gradual policy of encroachment they're pushing 93 00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:29.920 for war. Putin's army seizing land at one of its 94 00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:33.439 fastest rates since the initial invasionment almost four years ago, 95 00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:37.040 says research. The Kremlins army sees two hundred square miles 96 00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:39.639 of territory of November, up from one hundred square miles 97 00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:45.800 the previous month. According to Deep State, a trusted Ukraine 98 00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:50.000 based battlefield map about that. They can call it deep state. 99 00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:55.519 Let's use that for our marketing purposes. Here, the speed 100 00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.120 of advance was approaching the fastest. It's the initial invasion 101 00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:01.319 almost four years ago. But then you have the desperation 102 00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:05.120 of the war cult Zelenski meeting with Kiir starmer Manuel 103 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:10.240 Macron Fred Mertz. Ukraine is holding its own they said, 104 00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.160 and doing even better. Ukraine is not on the brink 105 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.720 of collapse. Again, reality has no meaning to these people. 106 00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:20.959 If we cannot immediately reach a peace agreement with Russia, 107 00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:23.920 it is essential that we give Ukraine all the support 108 00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:26.839 it needs so it does not lose ground due to 109 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:31.000 lack of support. Well, it is losing ground even though 110 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:34.439 they are supporting it. And this was something that many 111 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:37.560 people said from the beginning, that there was no way 112 00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.000 that Russia was going to be able to outlast that 113 00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:44.720 Ukraine is going to be able to outlast Russia. The 114 00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:49.199 comparative size of the two countries militaries, as well as 115 00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:55.240 you know the close proximity. It was in the cars 116 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:57.560 that this is going to happen. They planned in the 117 00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:02.240 war drawn up by the Trump administration involved Ukraine handing 118 00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:07.079 over vast tracts of land and Ukraine and Europe have 119 00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:12.120 rejected the proposals. Well, that's one way it's going to end, 120 00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:15.720 and maybe end when they take the land the gains 121 00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:19.639 and territory risks helping to persuade Trump that peace should 122 00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:23.199 be set on Russia's terms. The sending weapons an aid 123 00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:29.560 to Kiev was a waste, yes, early, Well, why does 124 00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:31.879 kir Starmer want the war so much? And why does 125 00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:35.720 Fred Mertz want the war? Why does Francis Emanuel Macron. 126 00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:40.360 It's because their people understand that their governments are at 127 00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:44.960 war with them. They're locking people up for mere comments 128 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:49.559 as they create this police surveillance state and shut down 129 00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:54.440 all free speech. And in the UK, for example, same 130 00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.080 things happening in all these countries being overrun with immigrants 131 00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.159 from abroad. There's fury and the UK is nearly three 132 00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.440 hundred and fifty thousand migrant families could get extra welfare 133 00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:10.080 after the new budget from Kure Starmer. So why does 134 00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:12.399 he want war? Well, because his own people are waking 135 00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.360 up to the fact that Starmer is at war with 136 00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:19.519 British people. That's why they'd fifty thousand form born families 137 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:24.279 and they found that two hundred thousand of them were 138 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:29.600 from just ten countries. Families from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria set 139 00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:33.320 to benefit the most from the three billion pound decision 140 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:38.120 to scrap the two child benefit cap. Endless found. A 141 00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:42.320 Tory MP who carried out the research said, you have 142 00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:46.759 to ask whose side the government is on. I don't 143 00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:48.639 think you have to ask that anymore. I think they've 144 00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:53.000 made that pretty clear. They like any third world migrants 145 00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:55.519 and they hate all the native Britons. And if you 146 00:09:55.559 --> 00:10:06.879 look at the chart that's there, the ten countries are Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Somalia, India, Ghana, Afghanistan, Iraq, 147 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:12.519 Sri Lanka. That's nine of them. There's only one country 148 00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:17.720 that is European and that's Poland. And so that's two 149 00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:21.639 hundred thousand of the three hundred and fifty thousand. The 150 00:10:21.679 --> 00:10:23.480 rest of the world is one hundred and fifty thousand. 151 00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:26.080 Immigrants from the rest of the world, and of course 152 00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:29.879 coming in for the welfare benefits, the welfare magnet that's there. 153 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:36.200 So Milo Inopolis and I don't normally get into these. 154 00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:41.159 It's amazing to me what a soap opera the conservative 155 00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:44.919 alternative media has become. But they've kind of been angling 156 00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:47.240 for this for a long time. One of the things 157 00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:50.039 that I criticized Charlie Kirk for was the fact that 158 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:53.440 he was going around doing culture war events and he 159 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:58.080 was putting out front a black guy who was homosexual, 160 00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:03.120 checking two DEI boxes. And as he's going around talking 161 00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:07.440 about christ and Christianity, he's sending this conflicting message of 162 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.080 supporting homosexual marriage. And he was called out on it 163 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.440 by some people at some of the events, and he 164 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:19.679 got really furious, how dare you call this out? And 165 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.480 I said at the time, I said, this I think 166 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:25.120 is very revealing because it shows what he's interested in 167 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:32.759 is big tent GOP. He's interested in getting money from 168 00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:35.360 backers and that type of thing. And to me, it 169 00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.240 was a real betrayal of all the conservative things that 170 00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:41.720 he pays lip service to. But their entire Republican Party 171 00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:45.240 is like that, but especially the alternative media, and so 172 00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:51.840 Milo Ianopolis has apologized for helping to sell and normalize 173 00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:58.480 homosexuality and homosexual marriage. And where did he do that 174 00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:03.639 with the altiterative media? Milo says he's become a Christian 175 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:07.799 and rejected that, and now he is outing a lot 176 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.840 of other people that are living this closeted, as they say, lifestyle. 177 00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:15.960 We've seen this for a long time in the Republican Party. 178 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:22.120 And Milo's point is that homosexuality is rampant but hidden 179 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:24.960 in the GOP. I mean, there's been reports when they 180 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.320 have their large conventions that Grinder you can see the 181 00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:34.519 spike in Grinder Activity, which is a homosexual dating app. 182 00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:40.679 You can see it where they're meeting geolocation. And we've 183 00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:43.000 seen it in the past. I mean, the longest serving 184 00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:47.519 Speaker of the House, Dennis Hasterard, was put into Congress 185 00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:50.480 from being a wrestling coach. That was his qualification beginning 186 00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.240 in Congress. Actually it wasn't his qualification wasn't being a 187 00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:56.639 wrestling coach. It's qualification is being a pedophile wrestler coach. 188 00:12:57.639 --> 00:13:01.360 And then that lawsuit called up to him eventually. But 189 00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:06.600 while he was in there was a paging scandal, a pager, 190 00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.840 I guess the pages. The young boys that go to 191 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:13.200 Congress because they want to get experienced in politics, they 192 00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:16.080 got a different kind of experience they were expecting, and 193 00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:18.600 so there was a scandal there with Mark Foley, and 194 00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:21.759 so Dennis Hastert before all this stuff broke about him, 195 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:24.759 went on with Russienbaum and they just poo pooed it. Oh, 196 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:27.559 this is just nothing but partisan politics, the same type 197 00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:30.360 of stuff they're doing now with Pete Hegseth and what's 198 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:36.080 happening with the murder of people in international waters. And 199 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:38.120 so yeah, it's just part of some politics. Nothing to 200 00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:40.960 see here, except we did see what it was. And 201 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:46.080 so Milo is saying that, in his opinion, it is 202 00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:50.360 everywhere within the GOP. Now he might have a bit 203 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.279 different perspective on it, since he was holding himself forth 204 00:13:54.320 --> 00:13:58.600 as a homosexual. And of course they're still doing this 205 00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:02.279 with Scott Pressler, the guy with really long straight hair, 206 00:14:02.799 --> 00:14:10.039 you may remember him. He is a favored person for 207 00:14:10.120 --> 00:14:15.879 the GP in terms of representing them, and they're normalizing this. 208 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:22.399 And so Milo has rejected that, and he has apologized 209 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:24.600 for normalizing that, which, by the way, none of the 210 00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.159 influencers have And so you know, people like Charlie Kirk, 211 00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:32.360 people like Alex Jones have been normalizing this type of thing. 212 00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:34.799 And as a matter of fact, he went on with 213 00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:38.879 Tim Poole, who was also playing this game. Tim Poole 214 00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:42.320 had Milo on, he had George Santos. Why would you 215 00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:45.159 put George Santos on unless it's some kind of a 216 00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:48.320 clickbait thing. And so Milo is making all kinds of 217 00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:54.080 statements about all these other conservative influencers, Candice Owen and 218 00:14:55.720 --> 00:15:00.679 even Charlie Kirk and Alex Jones saying that they were 219 00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:05.360 involved in homosexual activity. So I don't know. And so 220 00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:09.480 already you've had Minnie Johnson, who he said that about, 221 00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:12.879 said he's going to sue mylow for what he what 222 00:15:12.919 --> 00:15:15.639 he said about that, He made some very specific statements 223 00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:18.799 about it. All I can say is that you know, 224 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:21.480 when you look at how they're using this, the people 225 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:26.919 who say that therefore conservative values, that they're for family values, 226 00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:30.320 and then they do this kind of stuff. I mean, 227 00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:34.840 it's just look at, you know, Alex Jones platforming Blair White, 228 00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:37.799 this guy who dresses up like a woman, and so 229 00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:42.519 again Temple put all that stuff onto his into his podcast. 230 00:15:42.879 --> 00:15:45.600 All I've got to say about that is the reason 231 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.080 I mentioned this is not to get caught up in 232 00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:50.720 all of this gossip and all the rest of this stuff. 233 00:15:51.759 --> 00:15:55.759 But just take these people and look at what they do, 234 00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:58.960 look at what they do, and look at what they say. 235 00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:03.960 Ask yourself, then why would you trust them? You know, 236 00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:10.720 very interesting there was in terms of January the sixth, 237 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:15.840 Trump has, according to some sources, was trashing the people 238 00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:19.840 who were the conspiracy theories around January the sixth, and 239 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:22.480 then you got people like Nick Flint's. It was put 240 00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:24.480 up by Shannon Joy yesterday and I don't have it 241 00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:29.799 on the deck here, but it was footage of Nick 242 00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:33.399 Quinte's you know, yelling people go over there, go over there. 243 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:36.879 You know they're you know, directing people on January the sixth. 244 00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:39.759 And I've said from the very beginning, why did they 245 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:45.720 not focus? Are they focused on Ray Apps right? And 246 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:49.320 not focus on Fuentes, on Alex Jones and all these 247 00:16:49.320 --> 00:16:52.679 people who had been running stop to steal all the 248 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.799 people who enticed them to come. And you know it's 249 00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:58.720 like Ray Epps is there saying yeah, we got to 250 00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:01.679 go over there as well. Fints is doing that that 251 00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:04.599 day as well. Why does he get a pass? Is 252 00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:09.400 he a fed? The question is when you look at 253 00:17:09.400 --> 00:17:15.559 this stuff, are they selling this stuff or clicks? Are 254 00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:19.480 they selling it because they're being funded by people who 255 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:22.720 want to use them to propagandize, you use them for 256 00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:27.559 controlled opposition, And I think that it really in the 257 00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:32.039 long term doesn't really matter that much. They're manipulating you, 258 00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:34.039 they're lying to you, and that's the key thing that 259 00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:38.559 you need to know. It's a trap in many different ways. Well, 260 00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:40.680 I'm going to take a quick break here because there's 261 00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:43.039 something going on and need to find out what is 262 00:17:43.079 --> 00:17:46.640 happening with this, and we're going to continue when we 263 00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:48.359 come back. We're going to talk about a man who 264 00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:53.039 died from eating cockroaches. If people swallow some of this 265 00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:56.799 stuff coming from the conservative influencers, I guess somebody who 266 00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.200 is kind of like swallowing the cockroaches, and if you 267 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:01.279 get too much of it, it could be a very 268 00:18:01.279 --> 00:18:03.440 bad thing for you. So we're gonna take a quick break, folks, 269 00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:05.200 and we will be right back. 270 00:18:59.519 --> 00:20:16.960 M you're listening to the David Knight Show. 271 00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:23.440 APS Radio delivers multiple channels of music right to your 272 00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:27.000 mobile device.

I was trying to figure out what 275 00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:34.079 was going on. Nobody scrambling and running right in and 276 00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:36.240 didn't know what the issue was. It turns out that 277 00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:39.319 we had some issues with rumble streaming. So that's now 278 00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:41.680 been fixed and we now have everybody back in their 279 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:42.920 proper assigned seats. 280 00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:45.720 So you want to be on Rumble, but when somewhere 281 00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:47.720 else you can now go back to Rumble and watch 282 00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:49.119 the show there. 283 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.319 Yes, well, as I promised, we're going to talk about 284 00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:54.440 some real, something really important here. But I think it 285 00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:56.519 is an app to metaphor for our times in a 286 00:20:56.599 --> 00:20:59.960 number of ways. And man, it's horrifying death as a 287 00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:05.319 cockroaches in a competition, And this is just yet another 288 00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:07.599 warning you probably don't want to get into competitions of 289 00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:11.240 drinking and eating stuff, whether it's hot dogs or even water, 290 00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:16.079 or especially cockroaches. But I've talked many times in terms 291 00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:20.359 of how dosage is so important. The woman who was 292 00:21:21.079 --> 00:21:23.000 part of a they had a radio contest that was 293 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:25.519 going on, and they thought it'd be funny to give 294 00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:27.799 people lots of water and then not let them go 295 00:21:27.839 --> 00:21:31.640 to the bathroom, and a lady died because the water. Basically, 296 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:36.880 if you get a lot of water an overdose on water, 297 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:41.079 it will dilute I think your blood or something to 298 00:21:41.119 --> 00:21:43.319 the extent that it kills you. And it killed that 299 00:21:43.640 --> 00:21:46.400 one woman. Just in terms of doing a stupid contest, 300 00:21:46.480 --> 00:21:50.799 this guy stomach lining that stomach lining that's the method. 301 00:21:51.279 --> 00:21:53.839 Yeah, and then it just leaches out into your system 302 00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:56.119 and your body's not Your body needs water, but it's 303 00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:57.680 supposed to stay in its proper place. 304 00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:01.680 Wow. Well this guy thirty two years old, he collapsed 305 00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:04.160 and died as part of a contest. And guess what 306 00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:09.279 the prize was? A python? I want that python. Give 307 00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:10.039 me those bugs. 308 00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:15.039 Eat the bugs for the snake. This is a strange 309 00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:16.400 Barter economy list. 310 00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:19.119 He's trying to eat sea bugs and he ate too 311 00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:22.000 many of the bugs. The interesting thing is when I 312 00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:24.559 saw this, I thought, some are these things toxic? I 313 00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:27.480 grew up in Florida where we have really large cockroaches, 314 00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:30.839 palmeta bugs that would call him to try to put 315 00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.279 a I think a knife off the blow a little bit, 316 00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:36.880 put a nice spin on it, a label, but the 317 00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:41.559 filthy things, and and so I thought, you know, was 318 00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:46.960 it toxic? No is Actually he just respirated cockroach parts. 319 00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:50.839 He's trying to eat them so quickly, and so he 320 00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:54.519 died from assixiation, and I'm stuck in his throat. His 321 00:22:54.559 --> 00:22:57.799 girlfriend said that he had eaten bugs before, and she 322 00:22:57.920 --> 00:22:58.680 was his girlfriend. 323 00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:02.960 So there's somebody out there for everyone, that's right. 324 00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:05.559 Such a pity that he died eating bugs. He loved 325 00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:07.680 eating bugs. 326 00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:11.319 So it involved not just cockroaches, but it had several 327 00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:15.759 different rounds of eating different species of insects. And I 328 00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:18.319 don't know if these were the big swas in Florida, 329 00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:21.279 but I don't know if it's a big Florida cockroaches 330 00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:24.480 and palmeta bugs. They said they were measuring three or 331 00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:25.200 four inches long. 332 00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:27.960 Kind of sucks that he got to the cockroach round 333 00:23:28.000 --> 00:23:29.039 and then died there. 334 00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:33.519 Yeah, maybe grass operas would have been better. I don't know, but. 335 00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:39.359 What you're consuming can come in a plague. Stop eating it. 336 00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:43.039 This might have been the Madagascar roaches or something. It's 337 00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:44.119 three or four inches long. 338 00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:47.079 Anyway, I feel like those would be too expensive. 339 00:23:47.160 --> 00:23:49.400 You know, those are a pet people want to buy. 340 00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:52.160 Yeah, they said he was eating these things really quickly, 341 00:23:52.440 --> 00:23:55.359 and then he began wretching. I guess most of the people 342 00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:57.839 that would be nothing unusual after eating a bunch of 343 00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:02.000 cockroaches that you would start to throw But maybe that's 344 00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:05.720 why they evidently didn't give him the Heimlich maneuver. I 345 00:24:05.720 --> 00:24:08.759 don't know, but in the video you could see him 346 00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:11.839 trying to swallow and breathe at the same time. We 347 00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:17.680 can't do both of those simultaneously, That's right. So question 348 00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:21.440 from the New York Times is is Hollywood getting God? 349 00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:27.920 I guess you'd have a T shirt probably, yeah, instead 350 00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:30.640 of got milky because they got God, you know, or something. 351 00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:34.039 But I don't think that they get God. I don't 352 00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:35.960 think they understand God. I don't think they ever have 353 00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:41.160 understood God. And a good example of this is something 354 00:24:41.160 --> 00:24:47.039 that is happening today Today is the sixtieth anniversary December ninth, 355 00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.680 nineteen sixty five of the area of Charlie Brown Christmas 356 00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:56.160 Special and CBS really didn't get God, the whole God thing. 357 00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:58.720 They didn't get the whole Christmas thing either. It was 358 00:24:58.799 --> 00:25:03.359 kind of interesting because it was sponsored by Coca Cola. 359 00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:05.599 Coca Cola during the summer of sixty five, in June, 360 00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:08.440 as a matter of fact, came to CBS and said, 361 00:25:08.480 --> 00:25:11.039 we want to have a TV special that we want 362 00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:15.640 to sponsor. Well, you know, Coca Cola doesn't really like Christmas. 363 00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:18.039 It doesn't like Christ and Christmas. They've done everything they 364 00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:22.440 can to put Santa in his place, and these ai 365 00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:25.440 commercials that Coca Cola has done. They got a lot 366 00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:31.359 of criticism for it, but they scrupulously avoid using the 367 00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:34.519 term Christmas having anything to do with Christ and so 368 00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:37.039 they were going to be the sponsor of this, and 369 00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:41.240 so they said, we're on a really tight schedule, and 370 00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:44.799 there's actually a documentary in case you're interested, the making 371 00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:48.599 of the Charlley Brown Christmas So documentary. Bill Melndez is 372 00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:54.039 still around and he was the animator and so he's 373 00:25:54.079 --> 00:25:56.480 one of the key people that they talked about it, 374 00:25:56.519 --> 00:25:58.119 and they said, we didn't know how we're going to 375 00:25:58.119 --> 00:26:01.599 get this thing done. So they brought in Charles Schultz, 376 00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:04.640 who was they had already picked, said we're want to 377 00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:07.480 do something with peanuts. They called him Sparky, that was 378 00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:12.279 his nickname, and they said he was really incredible as 379 00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:15.559 a creative. He wasn't just a cartoonist. He was a storyteller. 380 00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:18.680 He did these things that came out of the word work. 381 00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:21.000 Sometimes I would just step back and like, wow, this 382 00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:25.240 guy comes up with great ideas. And so he was 383 00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:29.079 able to put together the outline for the show in 384 00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:31.920 less than a day. They sent the outline to Coca 385 00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:35.160 Cola they got on Monday. On Tuesday they called up 386 00:26:35.200 --> 00:26:35.960 and said they'd do. 387 00:26:35.880 --> 00:26:37.359 It so. 388 00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:43.319 And it had the objectionable scene in it, which was 389 00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:48.680 Linus reading the Bible passage from Luke. But they didn't 390 00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:53.440 really catch on to that evidently, and so the TV executives, 391 00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:55.680 once they got the show delivered to them, were very 392 00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.960 unhappy with it. They said they didn't like the kids' voices, 393 00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:02.880 which I thought pretty good. They didn't like the jazz 394 00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:05.240 music is that it doesn't fit, which of course that 395 00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:10.359 has now become a classic, it's iconic. Yeah, And they 396 00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:13.160 didn't like the Bible being in there. They thought that 397 00:27:13.200 --> 00:27:16.519 was too controversial. It's like all the things that everybody 398 00:27:16.559 --> 00:27:20.039 likes about it. CBS TV executives hated it. That's how 399 00:27:20.079 --> 00:27:23.400 totally out of touch they are with everything like this. 400 00:27:23.559 --> 00:27:27.319 That's why Hollywood is circling the drain and well on 401 00:27:27.319 --> 00:27:31.200 its way to being flushed out because they really don't 402 00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:31.680 get it. 403 00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:35.200 Yeah, they're going to have more shows like this now. 404 00:27:35.319 --> 00:27:37.319 In fact, you couldn't even really have them back then. 405 00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:39.559 Most of the time. This was lightning in a bottle. 406 00:27:40.039 --> 00:27:42.960 Yeah, got past them, that's right, that's right. 407 00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:47.559 They've been completely out of touch an anti Christian for decades, 408 00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:49.400 probably since inception. 409 00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:52.519 Like sixty years. Well, yeah, if you look at Hollywood. 410 00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.119 It was pretty amazing. There was an interesting BBC series 411 00:27:56.240 --> 00:28:01.920 is narrated by James Mason and the actor, and it 412 00:28:01.960 --> 00:28:04.079 was talking about the early days of Hollywood, the silent films. 413 00:28:04.119 --> 00:28:07.920 They called it something about silver screen, and we had 414 00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:11.599 it in our video stores. It was really interesting because 415 00:28:11.599 --> 00:28:13.759 they talked about how they made the movies and you 416 00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:17.759 know why movie stars wear sunglasses because they were spending 417 00:28:17.880 --> 00:28:22.839 all day in these really bright lights, these carbon arc 418 00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:25.079 lights that they were using everything, and it was doing 419 00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:27.119 a number on their eyes and they really need to 420 00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:29.799 get their eyes shaded when they went outside. They needed 421 00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:32.079 to rest, you know, a lot of different things like that. 422 00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:34.880 But how the camera, you know, how they would do stunts. 423 00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:38.359 Everything was real. I mean there was no special effects. 424 00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:40.480 They did it for real. I mean Lilian Gish is 425 00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:43.920 on an ice flow, and she's on a real ice flow. 426 00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:48.279 I mean, this is not a staged thing. And when 427 00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:52.400 they would the cameraman, how would they keep the steady flow. 428 00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:54.400 I mean it does look a little bit jerky in 429 00:28:54.480 --> 00:28:56.160 terms of the movement and that type of thing. But 430 00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:59.359 the cameramen were picked because they could turn the crank 431 00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:03.119 and manually the film through the camera at a constant rate, 432 00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:05.160 and so they all had a song that they would 433 00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:07.319 sing to themselves and that would be how they would 434 00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:09.880 pace themselves. But these guys had to keep this stuff 435 00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:12.160 up even when they strapped them to the wing of 436 00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:14.559 a biplane or something. You know, they were up there 437 00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:17.400 rolling this thing as they're flying around on the biplane. 438 00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:21.319 And so it was a fascinating series. But from the 439 00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:25.359 inception you can see just how perverted, I mean it was. 440 00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:28.960 The whole thing was like Jeffrey Epstein party, continuously of 441 00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:31.039 all these different people. That's why they had the Hollywood 442 00:29:31.079 --> 00:29:33.440 code that came in. But they've been completely out of 443 00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:36.759 touch with the rest of society from the get go, 444 00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:40.559 and they don't get it. But what they do is 445 00:29:40.599 --> 00:29:44.759 they manufacture a new reality, they manufacture a new consent. 446 00:29:46.000 --> 00:29:50.960 They're not reflecting culture, they're driving culture anyway, And back 447 00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:54.920 to this in the outline, Schultz Sparky had insisted that 448 00:29:54.960 --> 00:29:57.640 there'd be a scene from the Bible, and at the time, 449 00:29:57.680 --> 00:30:00.720 hardly any TV shows reference scripture of the move very risky. 450 00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:04.119 Mendelssohn said, Bill and I looked at each other and 451 00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:06.319 he said, oh, we don't know if we can animate 452 00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:09.319 from the Bible. It's never been done before, and Charles 453 00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:11.000 Schultz said, well, if we don't do it, who will. 454 00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:14.119 So they went ahead and did that that became part 455 00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:18.400 of the famous scene. This year again marks the sixtieth 456 00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:24.160 anniversary the TV special December the ninth, nineteen sixty five 457 00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:30.119 and seven point thirty, and this was a seventy fifth 458 00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.240 anniversary of the Peanuts comic strip. So he'd had that 459 00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:37.000 comic strip for about fifteen years before they picked him 460 00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:40.000 to do the film. So this is a short segment. 461 00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:43.359 We're going to come back though, and we're going to 462 00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:48.519 talk about the technocracy and some of the mounting problems 463 00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.839 that so driving cars that are going to take over 464 00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:54.839 the world. AI is going to run the world and 465 00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:58.359 going to run us, but it can't even navigate the 466 00:30:58.440 --> 00:31:01.279 Chick fil A drive through. They're working on an app 467 00:31:01.319 --> 00:31:04.640 for that, and so we're going to take a quick break. 468 00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:10.240 And last, did you put in the Charlie Brown thing? Yeah? 469 00:31:10.279 --> 00:31:13.559 I believe it's called Christmas Time and Christmas Folder. 470 00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:16.480 Okay, Yeah, let's see if I can get that here. 471 00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:20.160 I got it, I got it? Yeah, all right. Yeah, 472 00:31:20.160 --> 00:31:22.160 We've got a little bit different visuals this year with 473 00:31:22.240 --> 00:31:26.200 the help of AI for our Charlie Brown song. We'll 474 00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:27.039 be right back. 475 00:32:32.640 --> 00:33:16.519 At the. 476 00:33:11.279 --> 00:33:13.960 You're listening to the David Knight Show. 477 00:33:17.079 --> 00:33:22.279 Elvis the Beetle and the Sweet Sounds of Motown. Find 478 00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:26.680 them on the Oldies channel at APS radio dot com. 479 00:33:27.960 --> 00:33:31.079 Well, as we talk about whatever I was watching six 480 00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:36.079 years ago, today, the government watches you, the TV watches 481 00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:38.599 you back, the refrigerator watches you back. As a matter 482 00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:43.720 of fact, it was interesting funny story that Lance had 483 00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:48.759 shown me. And there was a woman who was suffering 484 00:33:48.759 --> 00:33:52.759 from paranoia, and she had one of these refrigerators that 485 00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:58.640 plays commercials all the time, and it just and it 486 00:33:58.680 --> 00:34:02.440 was a commercial for kind of a sci fi dystopian film. 487 00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:05.240 And the character in the film had the same name 488 00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:08.360 as this woman. And so the trader starts playing this 489 00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:12.199 thing and calls her out by name, and she lets 490 00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:15.239 just having a psychotic episode here. But I guess when 491 00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:17.760 they're really watching you, maybe it's not psychotic. 492 00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:18.960 And the. 493 00:34:21.320 --> 00:34:26.599 Schizophrenia and she got these messages for this TV show 494 00:34:26.760 --> 00:34:31.480 in which some group or AI or something is talking 495 00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:35.239 to this woman through various devices. So it's putting up 496 00:34:35.239 --> 00:34:38.760 these messages like sorry, we disappointed you, Carol, and the 497 00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.880 woman's named Carol and had been diagnosed as schizophrenic, so 498 00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:45.280 she thought she was having a psychotic break. 499 00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:49.599 Yeah, if I ever get a car that talks to me, 500 00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:51.599 I'll have to get the sound bites in there from 501 00:34:52.480 --> 00:34:54.440 two thousand and one. Sorry, Dave, I can't do that. 502 00:34:54.519 --> 00:34:56.199 I was thinking you were gonna go, you know, maybe 503 00:34:56.360 --> 00:34:59.440 Kit from night Rider or something like, something less malevoling. 504 00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:02.559 It had to be malevolent from my opinion, talking about 505 00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:08.400 the malevolent use of technology. Axon Enterprise, this is the 506 00:35:08.480 --> 00:35:15.000 company that is the biggest vendor of body cameras for cops, 507 00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:20.159 but of course they're also famous for developing tasers, and 508 00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:23.880 now what they want to do is and I thought 509 00:35:23.880 --> 00:35:27.480 it was interesting that the number two body camera company 510 00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:29.320 was motorol On. I said, you know, this is the 511 00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:33.000 way everything is going in the world. You know, because 512 00:35:33.039 --> 00:35:38.000 of the government's money, they've taken over all consumer manufacturing 513 00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:42.480 and everybody is now catering to the government. That's their customer. 514 00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:45.960 That's especially going to be true of artificial intelligence, but 515 00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:48.800 it has definitely been true for quite some time in 516 00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:53.320 terms of the technology companies that are here. Even you know, 517 00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:58.760 consumer based companies started getting into defence contract work because 518 00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:02.400 it was so lucrative. And so the police body cameras 519 00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:06.480 are equipped with artificial intelligence, trained to detect the faces 520 00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:10.679 of about seven thousand people on a high risk watch list, 521 00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:13.559 and they're rolling this out in the Canadian city of Edmonton. 522 00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:17.119 I have to ask myself, you know, when you got 523 00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:19.159 to I don't I should have looked up the population 524 00:36:19.199 --> 00:36:23.079 of Edmonton. But when you got in a town, I 525 00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:25.119 don't care if it's New York City. If you've got 526 00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:27.719 seven thousand people who are dangerous enough that they need 527 00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:29.639 to be on the bolo, you know, be on the 528 00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:35.320 lookout for. Maybe there's something wrong with the government system 529 00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:37.519 and the court system that you have these people on 530 00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:40.719 the streets in the first place. So that's my first 531 00:36:40.719 --> 00:36:44.840 concern is why are seven thousand people being that they 532 00:36:44.840 --> 00:36:47.400 say are dangerous? Why are they allowed to be out there? 533 00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:51.239 Then the second issue is that if these people are 534 00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:54.119 dangerous enough that they're going to instantly alert the police 535 00:36:54.159 --> 00:36:56.480 and say be careful this person. You know, they're very dangerous. 536 00:36:56.519 --> 00:36:59.119 They might be a threat to you. We've seen that 537 00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:03.039 type of thing done, labeling people as sovereign citizens. Remember 538 00:37:03.039 --> 00:37:05.960 when they did that after the was it two thousand 539 00:37:05.960 --> 00:37:08.920 and eight or something, we had Chuck Baldwin and Ron 540 00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:15.400 Paul ran for president, and they were telling police officers 541 00:37:15.400 --> 00:37:18.559 with these fusion data centers. They're telling them that if 542 00:37:18.599 --> 00:37:21.280 they pulled a car over and had a bumper sticker 543 00:37:21.320 --> 00:37:24.639 supporting Chuck Baldwin or Ron Paul, these people might be 544 00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:26.920 sovereign citizens, they better be on the lookout for them, 545 00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:31.280 and they might try to kill you. So you know, 546 00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:34.199 you got the police safeties off their gun. They're on 547 00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:37.360 a hair trigger here, and that's a real dangerous thing 548 00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:40.159 when you falsely identify people as they did with that. 549 00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:42.760 These people are not a threat to the police. But 550 00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:46.519 this AI can do the same thing. This AI can 551 00:37:46.599 --> 00:37:51.039 say this person looks like I think we've got this 552 00:37:51.079 --> 00:37:54.960 particular guy, and you might be completely innocent and you 553 00:37:55.119 --> 00:37:59.239 be misidentified by artificial intelligence. And because it's hyping up 554 00:37:59.280 --> 00:38:02.920 the police and telling them that you're dangerous, that could 555 00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:06.679 threaten you severely. So we've gone beyond the no fly 556 00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:09.440 list type of stuff. And so now they want to 557 00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:11.559 do this. So they're running this out as a test 558 00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:14.159 in Edmonton, and. 559 00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:17.320 I hope the AI is in their ear as they're 560 00:38:17.320 --> 00:38:20.000 getting this, just feeding them full metal jacket lines. 561 00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:22.119 You know, show me your war face, just getting. 562 00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:24.440 Them really hyped up, pumped up, ready to go rock 563 00:38:24.480 --> 00:38:27.800 and roll, heavy metal. Dry your gun right now, pull 564 00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:28.079 it on. 565 00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:28.719 Yeah. 566 00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:32.679 Regardless of the population size, if you've got seven thousand 567 00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:35.960 people who truly deserve to be on a terrorist watch list, 568 00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:37.679 that's going to be a war zone. 569 00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:39.400 I know, that's what I'm saying. I don't know the 570 00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:41.960 population is of Edmonton, but it doesn't really matter even 571 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:45.159 if it's New York City or some r J. Seven 572 00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:47.679 thousand criminals out there that you've got to alert the 573 00:38:47.679 --> 00:38:50.519 police as to how dangerous they are. That's a that's 574 00:38:50.559 --> 00:38:53.239 a crazy situation. That means that the whole policing and 575 00:38:53.480 --> 00:38:55.679 justice system ain't working, folks. 576 00:38:56.159 --> 00:38:58.760 It's like, I'm convinced there's at least seven thousand people 577 00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:01.239 in New York that are criminals. I am not, like 578 00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:03.679 you said, not convinced there are seven thousand criminals in 579 00:39:03.920 --> 00:39:07.239 even New York that you need to immediately alert the police. 580 00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:10.639 Yeah, that's right. Yeah, they could be criminals because of 581 00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:15.599 something that they do that's not a threat to other people. Nevertheless, 582 00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:19.039 the interesting thing is that this is brought up six 583 00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:22.440 years ago by them and also considered by Motorola, who 584 00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:25.800 is now the number two provider of police body cameras. 585 00:39:26.039 --> 00:39:30.360 They're both talking about matching this with artificial intelligence and 586 00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:34.239 doing a biometric database because although that is much more 587 00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:36.639 sophisticated now, they've been working on this type of thing 588 00:39:36.679 --> 00:39:40.559 for quite some time. And so one of the guys 589 00:39:40.559 --> 00:39:44.840 who used to be the chair of Axon's ethics board 590 00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:51.000 spoke out because he resigned because of unethical behavior from 591 00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:54.199 the corporation back in twenty nineteen. He and seven other 592 00:39:54.239 --> 00:39:59.440 people resigned from Axon. Let's CEO had this great idea, 593 00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:06.079 let's put our tasers on drones. It's like it just 594 00:40:06.159 --> 00:40:08.239 keeps getting worse when you look at these corporations that 595 00:40:08.320 --> 00:40:11.119 are part of the police state industrial complex. 596 00:40:11.360 --> 00:40:13.719 I had this great idea to put tasers on drones. 597 00:40:13.800 --> 00:40:17.039 My entire ethics department quit. But this will be great 598 00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:18.719 for our bottom line. 599 00:40:18.400 --> 00:40:21.480 That's right. So after getting rid of the ethics department, 600 00:40:21.559 --> 00:40:24.360 with the tasers on drones, now he is free to 601 00:40:24.440 --> 00:40:28.840 do artificial intelligence connected up to the police body cameras. 602 00:40:29.480 --> 00:40:34.360 And he said it's not essential to use these technologies, 603 00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:37.480 which have very real costs and risks unless there's some 604 00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:41.320 clear indication of the benefits, said the former employee who 605 00:40:41.360 --> 00:40:44.079 was there for ethics. He was the board chair for ethics. 606 00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.800 Barry Friedman, who is now a law professor at New 607 00:40:46.880 --> 00:40:51.840 York University. The founder and the CEO of Axon, though, 608 00:40:52.480 --> 00:40:55.920 says that the Edmonton pilot is not a product launch, 609 00:40:56.519 --> 00:40:58.960 but it's an early stage field research that will assess 610 00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:02.119 how the technology perform and reveal the safeguards needed to 611 00:41:02.199 --> 00:41:05.440 use it responsibly. So you better believe that if this 612 00:41:05.480 --> 00:41:08.400 thing works at all, they'll be selling it. And they 613 00:41:08.400 --> 00:41:11.119 don't really care if it gives false positives, if it 614 00:41:11.199 --> 00:41:14.159 identifies you as a criminal. And testing in real world 615 00:41:14.199 --> 00:41:17.760 conditions outside the US, we can gather independent insights, we 616 00:41:17.840 --> 00:41:21.559 can strengthen oversight frameworks, and we can apply those learnings 617 00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:24.840 to future evaluations, including within the United States. So he's 618 00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:28.480 testing it outside the US, and believe me, they will 619 00:41:28.519 --> 00:41:32.719 sell this as safety for law enforcement officers. It will 620 00:41:32.760 --> 00:41:36.000 be like wildfire the way everybody will snap this thing up. 621 00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:39.320 So they're in the process right now of making their 622 00:41:39.360 --> 00:41:41.400 case for it. Oh, look, we tested it in Edmonton 623 00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:43.360 and it worked great. We already know how that's going 624 00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:46.159 to go. This is just like the way the pharmaceutical 625 00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:49.280 companies test their drugs. You know, yeah, look at the 626 00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:52.519 here's our study here that we did ourselves to show 627 00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:59.360 how safe and effective this says. So the person who 628 00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:02.000 is now the rector of Responsible AI, they don't call 629 00:42:02.039 --> 00:42:05.199 it ethics anymore. So we really wanted to make sure 630 00:42:05.280 --> 00:42:08.760 that it's targeted. So these folks. That's targeting these folks 631 00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:13.599 who have serious offenses. Okay, So again, why are seven 632 00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:20.400 thousand people serious offenses at large? And and if it's 633 00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:23.639 a serious offense and they misflag you and they say 634 00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:27.119 they have a real issue under certain lighting conditions, they 635 00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:31.159 have an issue identifying accurately people with darker skin, and 636 00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:35.039 so this is this is going to be a disaster. 637 00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:37.719 It's a disaster in the making right here. 638 00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:40.639 I think getting to think if they've got seven thousand 639 00:42:40.679 --> 00:42:43.079 hardened criminals on the streets, that maybe the Mounties don't 640 00:42:43.119 --> 00:42:44.239 always get their man. 641 00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:48.119 They get amen, not necessarily the one that they needed. 642 00:42:48.159 --> 00:42:51.280 But we can promise you someone is going to prison. 643 00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:52.079 That's right. 644 00:42:52.159 --> 00:42:55.320 Al Ai drew all that great at picking out faces 645 00:42:55.320 --> 00:42:56.960 in low light, but let's put a whole bunch of 646 00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:59.159 tasers on them in seas. 647 00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:02.920 If we put out enough of them, eventually things will 648 00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:03.360 work out. 649 00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:06.920 Yeah, just enough people, you'll get the criminals. 650 00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:10.159 Yeah, itays for everybody. We'll sort it out later as 651 00:43:10.159 --> 00:43:11.039 they're laying on the ground. 652 00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:14.280 What is that military saying accuracy through volume of fire 653 00:43:14.480 --> 00:43:17.039 or something like that. You don't have to be precise 654 00:43:17.079 --> 00:43:19.199 with your shots if you just shoot enough times. 655 00:43:19.360 --> 00:43:22.840 Lethality not legality, Right, that's the new motto of the 656 00:43:24.119 --> 00:43:29.000 Pentagon Pete Department of Defense, because they haven't changed the 657 00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:32.679 name to war department yet. So anyway, they talked to Motorola. 658 00:43:32.760 --> 00:43:34.760 Motorola said, well, we took a look at this and 659 00:43:34.800 --> 00:43:36.480 we decided not to do it because we thought it'd 660 00:43:36.519 --> 00:43:42.440 be unethical, and we intentionally abstained from deploying this feature. However, 661 00:43:42.599 --> 00:43:46.679 we might do it in the future because ethics are changing. Right, 662 00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:51.039 Morality is up for negotiation, especially if your competitor is 663 00:43:51.039 --> 00:43:54.679 doing it. And so if Axon does it, Motorola will 664 00:43:54.719 --> 00:43:57.199 do it, and it'll explode and we'll see it everywhere, 665 00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:01.800 and they're all going to be coming to you, to 666 00:44:01.920 --> 00:44:06.840 the local mayor whoever, and say, well, if you won't 667 00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:09.239 do this for us, you really don't value our lives 668 00:44:09.239 --> 00:44:11.320 because we've had a police officer over here that was 669 00:44:11.360 --> 00:44:13.920 killed under these circumstances. We could have stopped that with 670 00:44:13.960 --> 00:44:17.039 this thing, So it'll be on them. 671 00:44:17.239 --> 00:44:19.400 This is clearly unethical. We don't want to be the 672 00:44:19.400 --> 00:44:22.119 ones pushing it and at the forefront of it, but 673 00:44:22.159 --> 00:44:23.280 we'll hold off on it. 674 00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:28.239 That's right. Studies showing the technology is flawed. They demonstrate 675 00:44:28.360 --> 00:44:32.159 biased results based on race, gender, and age. What else 676 00:44:32.239 --> 00:44:37.880 is there? Race, gender, and age that pretty much covers everything, 677 00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:38.320 doesn't it. 678 00:44:38.440 --> 00:44:40.280 I suppose if the drone were to sit you down 679 00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:42.719 and ask you about your religion, it could discriminate based 680 00:44:42.760 --> 00:44:43.159 on that. 681 00:44:43.320 --> 00:44:49.519 But well, it doesn't match the faces that accurately. So again, 682 00:44:49.599 --> 00:44:52.440 it's a real risk to somebody to be given a 683 00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:55.280 false positive like this. You, all of us would be 684 00:44:55.280 --> 00:44:57.920 at risk, even if we're not a criminal. Several US 685 00:44:57.920 --> 00:45:00.840 states and dozens of cities have some to curtail the 686 00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:05.320 police use of facial recognition, although the Trump administration is 687 00:45:05.400 --> 00:45:09.760 just fine with it, and they want to block or 688 00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:14.679 discourage states from regulating AI. You see, if the Trump 689 00:45:14.679 --> 00:45:18.719 administration gets its way, you wouldn't be able to pass 690 00:45:19.280 --> 00:45:21.679 a state or local ordinance saying we're not going to 691 00:45:21.760 --> 00:45:24.559 let the police use that kind of stuff. It's AI. 692 00:45:24.840 --> 00:45:28.000 You've got to get your hands off of my donors businesses, right, 693 00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.800 They're free to do anything they wish, just like his 694 00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:36.599 friends and the pharmaceutical companies are FDA free to do anything. 695 00:45:37.519 --> 00:45:41.159 And so that's what the Trump administration is really pushing for. 696 00:45:41.719 --> 00:45:46.480 Same thing that was done to protect the glifasset model, 697 00:45:46.599 --> 00:45:49.920 the round up model. The European Union has banned real 698 00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:53.960 time public face scanning police technology across the twenty seven 699 00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:57.559 nation block, except when used for serious crimes like kidnapping 700 00:45:57.960 --> 00:46:02.760 or terrorism. But in the UK, authorities started testing the 701 00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:06.320 technology on London streets a decade ago and they've used 702 00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:08.599 it to make thirteen hundred rest in the past two years. 703 00:46:08.599 --> 00:46:11.760 The government is considering expanding its use across the country 704 00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:17.039 because the UK wants to be the leader in this 705 00:46:17.199 --> 00:46:23.159 kind of Orwellian tyranny. They have seen nineteen eighty four 706 00:46:23.320 --> 00:46:27.360 as a manual. Axon doesn't make its own AI model 707 00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:31.360 for recognizing faces, and they decline to say which one 708 00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:35.639 they're using. You know, when we look at the UK, 709 00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:39.320 the way they have gone into this, gone over to 710 00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:42.639 the dark side, maybe it would be a fitting thing 711 00:46:42.679 --> 00:46:45.400 for them to just change the name of the country, 712 00:46:46.000 --> 00:46:51.599 especially under Cure Sarmer. Remember the orwell it was ing Sock, right, 713 00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:56.800 like English socialism, and of course Cure Starmer is a socialist, 714 00:46:56.880 --> 00:46:58.039 so just call it Inksock. 715 00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:01.440 It's also great that they're not relying on their own model. 716 00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:04.239 So something goes wrong and these things start tasing people, 717 00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:06.960 they have to then send off to some third party 718 00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:10.159 company to go Hey, by the way, well what they. 719 00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:12.199 Like about that. It gives them plausible deniability. 720 00:47:12.360 --> 00:47:14.159 It wasn't us, it was this other company. 721 00:47:14.360 --> 00:47:17.320 And you know, if it's something that's produced my Zuckerberg 722 00:47:17.440 --> 00:47:19.599 or Altman or Musk or whatever, you know, the Trump 723 00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:21.599 administration is going to give them a pass, even if 724 00:47:21.639 --> 00:47:26.880 it makes an egregious error there. So they said about 725 00:47:26.920 --> 00:47:30.360 fifty officers polloting the technology won't know if their facial 726 00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:33.320 recognition software made a match. The outputs will be analyzed 727 00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:37.159 later at the station. However, in the future, you could 728 00:47:37.159 --> 00:47:40.519 help police detect if there is potentially a dangerous person nearby, 729 00:47:40.599 --> 00:47:45.159 so they can call for assistance. And you know, it's 730 00:47:45.599 --> 00:47:49.639 with all of this happening, it's kind of interesting. I 731 00:47:49.679 --> 00:47:52.400 went back and watched a little bit of RoboCop because 732 00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:58.400 in Detroit they've just erected a RoboCop statue, and I thought, 733 00:47:58.440 --> 00:48:02.199 why are we honoring this kind of stuff? I mean, 734 00:48:03.079 --> 00:48:06.079 Detroit looks awful in that movie. You know, they send 735 00:48:06.119 --> 00:48:10.159 in mechanized robots to keep order and to use these 736 00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:14.599 these heavy guns. Like it comes, put down the gun. 737 00:48:15.239 --> 00:48:17.400 I said, this is this is kind of like the 738 00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:20.280 Venezuela and boats right, but down the gun. They put 739 00:48:20.320 --> 00:48:23.119 down the gun. Now I got five seconds to put 740 00:48:23.159 --> 00:48:25.480 in and everybody scrambling because they know this thing's gonna 741 00:48:25.519 --> 00:48:29.880 unleash fire and it it just starts shooting him over 742 00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:33.920 and over again. So now they're embracing that. You do, Yeah, 743 00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:51.239 let's play that there. It is two O nine. It's 744 00:48:51.280 --> 00:48:53.440 probably got facial recognition technology as well. 745 00:48:55.679 --> 00:48:58.599 From the t S A is two O nine the 746 00:48:58.639 --> 00:49:00.800 iteration number or the number of rounds is going to 747 00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:01.840 pump into your corpse. 748 00:49:03.280 --> 00:49:17.039 I guess. 749 00:49:18.679 --> 00:49:21.320 The Enforcement Droid Series two O nine is. 750 00:49:21.320 --> 00:49:24.400 This enforcement droid. Robotic two of. 751 00:49:24.400 --> 00:49:27.360 Nine is currently programmed for urban pacification, but that is 752 00:49:27.400 --> 00:49:28.239 only the beginning. 753 00:49:29.159 --> 00:49:32.079 After a successful tour of duty in Old Detroit, we. 754 00:49:31.960 --> 00:49:35.519 Can expect two nine to become the hot military product. 755 00:49:35.559 --> 00:49:36.599 For the next decade. 756 00:49:37.800 --> 00:49:41.000 Doctor McNamara will lead an arrest subjects Kenny, Yes, sir, 757 00:49:41.039 --> 00:49:43.079 would you come up and give us hand please? Yes, sir. 758 00:49:43.880 --> 00:49:46.599 Mister Kenny is going to help us simulate a typical 759 00:49:46.719 --> 00:49:48.039 arrest and disarming proceedure. 760 00:49:50.760 --> 00:49:52.400 Use your gun in a threatening manner. 761 00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:55.639 Pointed at a to nine. 762 00:49:56.239 --> 00:49:58.119 Yeah, and doesn't care for you have threatened a human. 763 00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:07.320 Just don't threaten that. Please put down your weapon. You 764 00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:09.440 got twenty seconds to comply. 765 00:50:11.360 --> 00:50:12.599 I think you'd better do what he says. 766 00:50:12.599 --> 00:50:23.079 Mister Kenny, you know how fifteen require you. 767 00:50:23.079 --> 00:50:28.920 Are a. 768 00:50:28.280 --> 00:50:32.880 Engineers are furiously trying to rip rip out the electronics. 769 00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:38.559 Engine physical. 770 00:50:41.920 --> 00:50:44.559 Yeah, and he just keeps choosing physical force, so we'll 771 00:50:44.599 --> 00:50:46.639 cut it to that point. But you get the idea. 772 00:50:46.800 --> 00:50:48.400 Pete Hegseth wants to know where you can get one 773 00:50:48.440 --> 00:50:51.639 of these things for Venezuela. Can I use that I'm 774 00:50:51.760 --> 00:50:57.760 a helicopter. Uh So anyway, the UH criminology professor in 775 00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:00.559 Alberta says he's not surprised the city is sperimenting with 776 00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:04.719 live facial recognition, given that the technology is all already 777 00:51:04.800 --> 00:51:08.119 ubiquitous in airport security. That's why the TSA is there. 778 00:51:09.119 --> 00:51:13.679 It is training for all of us, right and that's 779 00:51:13.719 --> 00:51:17.000 what they're training you for, facial recognition right now. And 780 00:51:17.079 --> 00:51:22.119 so again they resigned because the taser equipped drone. So 781 00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:24.400 now they don't have an ethics board. They're free to 782 00:51:24.440 --> 00:51:27.360 do this kind of stuff. Well you had. Nvidia CEO. 783 00:51:28.199 --> 00:51:32.079 Hawaang goes on with Joe Rogan and has a jaw 784 00:51:32.199 --> 00:51:34.800 dropping AI prediction. He says, in the future, maybe two 785 00:51:34.840 --> 00:51:38.039 or three years only from now, ninety percent of the 786 00:51:38.039 --> 00:51:43.719 world's knowledge will likely be generated by AI. Well, this 787 00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:46.519 is a self serving prediction, if ever there was one. 788 00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:49.400 If he really believes that, why is he having to 789 00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:52.400 do the circular financing of other companies in order to 790 00:51:52.559 --> 00:51:54.920 keep pushing his stock high and high? It seems like 791 00:51:54.920 --> 00:51:57.960 it would the market would take care of that. And 792 00:51:58.000 --> 00:52:04.559 so he's involved in circular financing fraud. And so Rogan says, well, 793 00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:09.519 I don't know, that's crazy, he said. Wang said, yeah, 794 00:52:09.559 --> 00:52:13.119 I know, but it's just fine. Rogan says, but it's 795 00:52:13.199 --> 00:52:15.280 just fine. Why he goes Well, let me tell you why. 796 00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:18.400 Wang said, It's because what difference does it make to 797 00:52:18.440 --> 00:52:21.440 me that I'm learning from a textbook that was generated 798 00:52:21.480 --> 00:52:24.079 by a bunch of people I didn't know, or knowledge 799 00:52:24.119 --> 00:52:27.119 that was generated by AI computers that are assimilating all 800 00:52:27.199 --> 00:52:30.360 of these and resynthesizing things. To me, I don't think 801 00:52:30.360 --> 00:52:32.960 there's a whole lot of difference. Yes, as a man, right, 802 00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:36.360 you can be propagandized by textbook companies and the school 803 00:52:36.360 --> 00:52:39.199 board or the government or whatever. We can be propagandized 804 00:52:39.199 --> 00:52:43.239 by our AI. What is the difference? And that's the 805 00:52:43.320 --> 00:52:46.639 key thing you need to look at. You need critical thinking, 806 00:52:46.679 --> 00:52:48.599 you need to look at the source, and you need 807 00:52:48.639 --> 00:52:52.519 to check it out for yourself. And that's true. Before 808 00:52:52.559 --> 00:52:54.320 we had AI, a lot of people didn't do it. 809 00:52:54.360 --> 00:52:56.000 That's why AI is going to be so much more 810 00:52:56.480 --> 00:52:59.800 dangerous because people would just trust it because it's coming 811 00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:01.239 from the machine. 812 00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:03.760 That are going to assume it's an unbiased source. You 813 00:53:04.679 --> 00:53:07.639 look at this, it's a robot. It doesn't have an agenda. 814 00:53:08.039 --> 00:53:09.840 It's not trying to sell me something. 815 00:53:10.039 --> 00:53:10.559 That's right. 816 00:53:10.679 --> 00:53:13.719 It removes the people who are trying to do that 817 00:53:13.840 --> 00:53:16.119 one layer, and people just forget they exist. 818 00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:19.079 Yeah. Yeah, the man behind the curtain thing, you know, 819 00:53:19.440 --> 00:53:21.840 so you're interacting with the wizard of oz head that's 820 00:53:21.920 --> 00:53:24.519 up there, but you don't realize that there's people behind 821 00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:28.559 the curtain that have been hired to program their particular 822 00:53:28.599 --> 00:53:32.679 biases and things into these issues that they find important. 823 00:53:33.000 --> 00:53:37.280 Yeah, I'm sure Grok was just purely troop seeking when 824 00:53:37.280 --> 00:53:39.800 it said that it would be better for humanity to 825 00:53:39.840 --> 00:53:42.679 lose forty nine percent of its population than for Elon 826 00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:49.079 Musk Elon Musk to die. These things are purely unbiased 827 00:53:49.119 --> 00:53:49.880 troop seekers. 828 00:53:50.199 --> 00:53:54.000 That's right, that's right. So again, you know, it is 829 00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:56.639 a tool that is ripe for manipulation, says this article. 830 00:53:56.639 --> 00:54:00.320 And that's right, and that's the real key with it. 831 00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:05.679 Ripe for surveillance, and it's ripe for manipulation. But then again, 832 00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:10.360 so are the schools, So are the textbooks. So is TV, 833 00:54:10.639 --> 00:54:14.239 so as movies, so is social media. These are all 834 00:54:14.320 --> 00:54:17.760 tools that are ripe for manipulation. So in that regard, 835 00:54:17.880 --> 00:54:21.320 AI is no different from them. It's just that people 836 00:54:21.400 --> 00:54:25.800 have over time, some people have got their guard up 837 00:54:25.840 --> 00:54:29.559 for these other forms of manipulation of propaganda. AI is 838 00:54:29.599 --> 00:54:32.840 going to come in from a different way and a 839 00:54:32.920 --> 00:54:38.199 rare show of spine. And this is this is all critical, right, 840 00:54:38.239 --> 00:54:41.519 this is coming from Steve Watson, and he's rightfully critical 841 00:54:41.639 --> 00:54:44.760 of this and skeptical of this, but then listen to this, 842 00:54:45.199 --> 00:54:48.559 he says. However, in a rare show of spine from 843 00:54:48.599 --> 00:54:52.639 Big Tech, Wang declared President Trump to be our president 844 00:54:53.320 --> 00:54:57.679 and cheered him on. How is that a show of spine? Watson, 845 00:54:57.880 --> 00:54:58.679 I don't get it. 846 00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:02.400 Look, this evil scumbag is saying Trump is his president. 847 00:55:02.480 --> 00:55:03.400 Isn't that wonderful? 848 00:55:03.639 --> 00:55:06.840 But you know he is a sycophant, and he just 849 00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:09.320 came from a meeting with Trump where he's looking to 850 00:55:09.360 --> 00:55:12.440 make money for his business. And these guys know that 851 00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:17.400 Trump is their ally. So al is big tech now 852 00:55:17.559 --> 00:55:21.119 and the Democrats they're all good now because for somebody 853 00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:24.440 like Steve Watson, they are so embedded in this because 854 00:55:24.480 --> 00:55:29.920 they are now cow towing to the Trump cult. He's 855 00:55:29.960 --> 00:55:34.239 now got a spine. It's just the opposite. He looks 856 00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:37.000 straight at Joe Rogan. He said, President Trump is my president. 857 00:55:37.039 --> 00:55:40.920 He is our president. Just because it's President Trump. Many 858 00:55:40.960 --> 00:55:43.960 want him to be wrong. I think the US we 859 00:55:44.039 --> 00:55:46.800 all have to realize that he is our president and 860 00:55:46.840 --> 00:55:49.679 we want him to succeed because it helps everybody, all 861 00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:52.880 of us, to succeed. Well, he certainly is helping all 862 00:55:53.079 --> 00:55:55.440 of the AI technocrats to succeed. 863 00:55:55.679 --> 00:55:58.039 Isn't Jensen Wong Taiwanese anyway? 864 00:55:58.519 --> 00:56:03.599 Yeah, yeah, yeah, Again, it's a dual citizenship, I guess. 865 00:56:05.039 --> 00:56:08.000 But he is as president if he's going to give 866 00:56:08.119 --> 00:56:13.840 him massive subsidies, protect them from any restrictions in terms 867 00:56:13.840 --> 00:56:18.199 of his business. This is what is happening here. So 868 00:56:19.639 --> 00:56:23.159 again he really focuses and so to other people. It's 869 00:56:23.159 --> 00:56:26.800 not just Steve Watson. He's taken this article from a 870 00:56:26.920 --> 00:56:31.159 thing that's put up by Vigilant Fox. These people are 871 00:56:32.400 --> 00:56:35.559 they do the articles, they do the posts simply because 872 00:56:35.559 --> 00:56:37.800 somebody said something good about Trump. Look, it's a powerful 873 00:56:37.800 --> 00:56:41.039 person says something good about Trump, and we want Trump 874 00:56:41.119 --> 00:56:44.639 to succeed because Trump is our success as well. You know. 875 00:56:44.639 --> 00:56:48.239 Trump is the success of people like Vigilant Fox and 876 00:56:48.320 --> 00:56:51.840 Steve Watson, just like he's the success of the technocrats 877 00:56:52.079 --> 00:56:54.519 who are going to be getting the government subsidies for 878 00:56:54.599 --> 00:56:57.360 these projects and who are going to be protected from 879 00:56:57.400 --> 00:57:00.239 any regulation at the state or local level because of Trump. 880 00:57:01.000 --> 00:57:05.480 The remarks come amid Waning's Worldwin DC tour where he 881 00:57:05.679 --> 00:57:08.159 was bowing and scraping before all these people are going 882 00:57:08.199 --> 00:57:12.199 to take your money, take your freedom, take your dignity. 883 00:57:12.559 --> 00:57:18.159 And hend it to these billionaire technocrats where he huddled 884 00:57:18.199 --> 00:57:22.599 with Trump and Senate Republicans to slash export red tape 885 00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:26.679 on AI chips, warning that here it is patchwork state 886 00:57:26.760 --> 00:57:31.360 regulations could cripple US dominance. They always call it that 887 00:57:31.400 --> 00:57:34.559 patchwork state regulations. We don't want to have patchwork regulations. 888 00:57:34.599 --> 00:57:37.800 We don't want to have a different approach in different states. No, 889 00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:40.000 we got to have one ring to rule them all. 890 00:57:40.039 --> 00:57:42.159 And it's going to be coming out of Washington. That 891 00:57:42.320 --> 00:57:46.320 gang will tell everybody and this is a violation of 892 00:57:46.360 --> 00:57:50.280 the Tenth Amendment what Trump is pushing for, pushing against 893 00:57:50.559 --> 00:57:55.559 patchwork state regulations. Where does it say in the constitution 894 00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:58.360 that you can subsidize these companies. Where does it say 895 00:57:58.400 --> 00:58:02.159 in the constitution that we can't have any control over 896 00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:06.280 what these companies do in our state. As a matter 897 00:58:06.320 --> 00:58:09.199 of fact, it says just the opposite. So he's there 898 00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:14.400 lobbying for protection from competition and regulation, lobbying for Trump 899 00:58:14.440 --> 00:58:16.960 to violate the Tenth Amendment and you'll get what he wants. 900 00:58:17.800 --> 00:58:22.039 Trump's energy push is defying the green zealots, he says. 901 00:58:22.360 --> 00:58:25.679 That's what Steve Watson says. This energy push for AI 902 00:58:25.800 --> 00:58:28.679 let me tell you something. People are angry because they 903 00:58:28.719 --> 00:58:31.320 see the power rates going up because of this green 904 00:58:31.400 --> 00:58:33.639 grift that is out there. Oh, we got to we 905 00:58:33.679 --> 00:58:37.639 can only generate power that is created with new devices 906 00:58:37.719 --> 00:58:42.920 made by my corporate sponsors. Well, guess what, the corporate 907 00:58:42.960 --> 00:58:46.480 sponsors of Trump who are going to be building these 908 00:58:46.760 --> 00:58:51.320 cause massive disruption of the grid in order to feed 909 00:58:51.360 --> 00:58:55.599 their AI data centers. And this AI energy grid requirement 910 00:58:56.119 --> 00:58:59.000 is going to drive your prices up further and faster 911 00:58:59.559 --> 00:59:02.840 than any of the green New Deal stuff. That's the 912 00:59:02.840 --> 00:59:04.840 bottom line for us. You want to pay more for 913 00:59:04.880 --> 00:59:07.800 electricity and have less of it, well you know the 914 00:59:07.840 --> 00:59:11.199 Democrats have a plan for that. It's called solar power 915 00:59:11.280 --> 00:59:14.239 and windmills. If you want to pay more for electricity 916 00:59:14.239 --> 00:59:16.719 and have less of it, the Republicans have it planned 917 00:59:16.760 --> 00:59:21.000 for that. It's called AI data centers. Wayne's line of 918 00:59:21.039 --> 00:59:26.840 there being no difference between what is coming from the 919 00:59:26.960 --> 00:59:30.639 from the AI and coming from somebody writing a textbook, 920 00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:36.719 says Watson, ignores how these ghosts erode the soul, authenticity 921 00:59:37.000 --> 00:59:40.719 and erode jobs, paving the way for a world that 922 00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:44.519 is scripted by code, not by creators. He talks about 923 00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:49.519 that in the context of Solomon Ray, a chart topping 924 00:59:50.079 --> 00:59:55.480 singer that is just done by Ai Hawaang's Vision Thrills, 925 00:59:55.480 --> 00:59:59.480 but it demands guardrails. We don't even have any guardrails 926 00:59:59.480 --> 01:00:04.119 on Trump. I'm going to get guardrails on his corporate sponsors. 927 01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:10.320 So it is as all this is happening. Just to 928 01:00:10.320 --> 01:00:15.079 put this in perspective of this omnipotent Ai, it is 929 01:00:15.119 --> 01:00:18.320 a real threat because it is going to be combined 930 01:00:18.360 --> 01:00:22.960 with government. And that's the real threat. The surveillance, the 931 01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:26.519 control of the propaganda, and the auditing of all of 932 01:00:26.599 --> 01:00:28.840 us all the time. But when it comes to things 933 01:00:28.920 --> 01:00:33.800 like self driving cars, they're having difficulty getting through the 934 01:00:33.920 --> 01:00:37.079 Chick fil A drive through and some of them have 935 01:00:37.159 --> 01:00:39.760 gotten stuck in it, and so there's going to be 936 01:00:39.800 --> 01:00:43.000 an app for that. One person looked at this and said, oh, 937 01:00:43.039 --> 01:00:47.639 that's a business opportunity. They've come up with a startup 938 01:00:47.679 --> 01:00:51.159 company called Auto Lane, and what they want to do 939 01:00:51.280 --> 01:00:54.840 is develop a kind of air traffic control system. They'll 940 01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:59.320 be specific to a particular business, so you get people 941 01:00:59.360 --> 01:01:01.519 to come to your Chick fil A drive through. If 942 01:01:01.559 --> 01:01:05.480 Chick fil A does a thing with auto Lane, and 943 01:01:05.559 --> 01:01:07.559 the people who don't drive cars who are being driven 944 01:01:07.559 --> 01:01:10.480 around and self driving cars can tell it to go 945 01:01:10.519 --> 01:01:12.159 to Chick fil A and they'll be able to navigate 946 01:01:12.199 --> 01:01:16.079 there without getting caught. And so they're looking at selling 947 01:01:16.119 --> 01:01:19.480 this to a lot of big box retailers, a lot 948 01:01:19.519 --> 01:01:23.599 of fast food chains, and even mentioned selling it to 949 01:01:24.000 --> 01:01:26.880 some of the big real estate investment trusts that are 950 01:01:26.920 --> 01:01:31.079 managing shopping centers or things like that, and that's where 951 01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:33.639 he sees his market. He said, we don't work on 952 01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:36.880 public streets and we don't work with public parking spots. 953 01:01:37.199 --> 01:01:38.559 So what he wants to do is he wants to 954 01:01:38.559 --> 01:01:41.599 partner with these private businesses so they can say that 955 01:01:41.679 --> 01:01:45.559 they are self driving car friendly. This is the pathetic 956 01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:49.599 world that we are headed into. We've gone from London 957 01:01:49.639 --> 01:01:53.840 taxi drivers who could keep the destinations in London in 958 01:01:53.880 --> 01:01:58.280 their head and had this massive hypo part of their 959 01:01:58.320 --> 01:02:01.239 brain whatever it was. I don't remember hip a campus. Yeah, 960 01:02:01.239 --> 01:02:03.440 it might have been hippo campus. Yeah. I don't know 961 01:02:03.599 --> 01:02:05.800 which part got larger. Actually I started to say it, 962 01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:07.960 but I don't know if that was the part that 963 01:02:08.079 --> 01:02:10.679 got larger. But you know, we have our shrinking brains 964 01:02:10.760 --> 01:02:13.760 because our responsibilities are shrinking and we're using them less. 965 01:02:14.400 --> 01:02:16.920 And so it turns out they said, American roads are 966 01:02:16.920 --> 01:02:19.159 not too friendly to self driving cars, and they're not 967 01:02:19.199 --> 01:02:21.719 friendly too pedestrians. And you can tell that this is 968 01:02:21.760 --> 01:02:26.360 coming from the perspective of an urban planner. They love cities, 969 01:02:26.719 --> 01:02:30.920 they love people walking, They hate cars because cars are 970 01:02:31.039 --> 01:02:33.000 used by people to get out of the cities as 971 01:02:33.039 --> 01:02:33.800 fast as they can. 972 01:02:34.840 --> 01:02:38.920 They want to keep your cafference between the London streets 973 01:02:38.960 --> 01:02:41.199 and memorizing all that and being able to navigate a 974 01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:43.559 Chick fil A parking lot drive. 975 01:02:43.360 --> 01:02:48.159 Through, that's right. The founder described the company as one 976 01:02:48.159 --> 01:02:50.840 of the first application layer companies in the self driving 977 01:02:50.920 --> 01:02:53.079 vehicle industry. Says, well, we're not going to build a car. 978 01:02:53.559 --> 01:02:55.159 We're not going to navigate on the road. What we 979 01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:57.599 would do is we'd have a special app that gets 980 01:02:57.639 --> 01:03:01.039 layered on top of it. You aren't the fundamental models, 981 01:03:01.039 --> 01:03:03.039 we're not building the cars doing anything like that. We're 982 01:03:03.079 --> 01:03:07.119 simply saying, as the industry grows has exponential rates, someone 983 01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:08.960 is going to have to sit in the middle and orchestrate, 984 01:03:09.039 --> 01:03:11.800 coordinate and kind of evaluate what's going on. And when 985 01:03:11.800 --> 01:03:15.599 I saw this, like air traffic control, I remember discussion 986 01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:18.480 that we had Eric Peters and I years ago were 987 01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:22.400 war gaming out this where the SAI thing is headed 988 01:03:22.400 --> 01:03:27.320 for self driving cars, and Eric was right. He said, 989 01:03:27.559 --> 01:03:32.039 these things don't handle interaction with human beings that well, 990 01:03:32.159 --> 01:03:34.039 So we're gonna have to eliminate the human beings because 991 01:03:34.039 --> 01:03:36.239 that's our first priority is to get the AI and 992 01:03:36.239 --> 01:03:38.920 the self driving stuff out there. And so if there's 993 01:03:38.920 --> 01:03:42.280 a problem between AI and humans, and humans have to go, 994 01:03:42.840 --> 01:03:44.719 which means human drivers have to go. He said, you 995 01:03:44.719 --> 01:03:47.960 stop and think about it. You have air traffic control 996 01:03:48.199 --> 01:03:52.239 to at the airports to make sure these planes don't collide, 997 01:03:52.519 --> 01:03:56.920 and they keep big distances between themselves and you know, 998 01:03:57.079 --> 01:04:03.320 big distances vertically as well as in their same plane. 999 01:04:03.360 --> 01:04:07.039 And so he said, how's that going to work with 1000 01:04:07.320 --> 01:04:10.960 artificial with the self driving cars. You're going to have 1001 01:04:11.079 --> 01:04:13.480 to get most of the cars off the road and 1002 01:04:13.719 --> 01:04:15.320 or they're all going to have to be self driving 1003 01:04:15.320 --> 01:04:17.480 cars so they can communicate with each other. You know, 1004 01:04:17.519 --> 01:04:19.480 if they can communicate with each other, you can get 1005 01:04:19.519 --> 01:04:22.440 them doing the I forgot they call it. It's like 1006 01:04:22.519 --> 01:04:25.159 a caravanning thing or something where they get the cars 1007 01:04:25.199 --> 01:04:28.039 get right up against each other bumper to bumper because 1008 01:04:28.320 --> 01:04:33.119 they're communicating simultaneously and whatever the front car sees it 1009 01:04:33.119 --> 01:04:37.760 can instantaneously apply that to all the cars in the row, 1010 01:04:38.280 --> 01:04:40.840 and so it's like caravanning or something like that. But 1011 01:04:42.239 --> 01:04:44.599 they sell that as a feature once they get all 1012 01:04:44.639 --> 01:04:48.360 the humans off the road. And so now they're starting 1013 01:04:48.400 --> 01:04:50.400 to talk about the air traffic control model. Yeah, we're 1014 01:04:50.400 --> 01:04:52.920 going to have complete control of all the cars here. 1015 01:04:53.320 --> 01:04:56.119 We'll just guess what. You know, when they set this 1016 01:04:56.199 --> 01:04:58.400 thing up and they've got all the self driving cars 1017 01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:01.920 going through the through, it's not going to be very 1018 01:05:02.000 --> 01:05:04.760 friendly for you, and so they're gradually going to squeeze 1019 01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:05.440 you out of it. 1020 01:05:05.719 --> 01:05:08.320 I think another important thing to focus on is just 1021 01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:12.360 you have a right to travel. You have a right 1022 01:05:12.800 --> 01:05:16.639 to you know, freely travel without impediment. 1023 01:05:18.039 --> 01:05:20.880 Eventually, they've been telling us for the longest time, you 1024 01:05:20.920 --> 01:05:22.960 didn't need to have a driver's license because driving is 1025 01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:26.119 a privilege. It's not a privilege, it's a right. I mean, 1026 01:05:26.159 --> 01:05:28.639 if you're doing it commercially, they can regulate it. They 1027 01:05:28.639 --> 01:05:30.599 should not be regulating anything. We shouldn't have to have 1028 01:05:30.679 --> 01:05:34.400 driver's licenses to drive around. I'm with the guys who 1029 01:05:34.599 --> 01:05:37.559 the sovereign citizen's pushing back against this. I just know, however, 1030 01:05:37.679 --> 01:05:40.000 that the you're not going to win in court because 1031 01:05:40.039 --> 01:05:42.679 the courts are rigged, So don't go down that road. 1032 01:05:42.719 --> 01:05:45.239 But anyway, you principle. 1033 01:05:44.920 --> 01:05:48.000 Yeah, if you focus on the fact that they're unsafe, 1034 01:05:48.039 --> 01:05:51.199 that they do stupid things, eventually they will reach a 1035 01:05:51.239 --> 01:05:55.559 point where they don't anymore. These things will eventually probably 1036 01:05:55.639 --> 01:05:59.119 become statistically safer than the average driver because of the 1037 01:05:59.239 --> 01:06:02.239 number of idiots we have on the road. And if 1038 01:06:02.239 --> 01:06:05.199 you focus on the safety aspect, eventually that'll go away 1039 01:06:05.239 --> 01:06:07.559 and you won't have an argument anymore. You have to 1040 01:06:07.559 --> 01:06:10.159 focus on the fact that it is your right as 1041 01:06:10.159 --> 01:06:13.679 a human being to travel and drive yourself and control 1042 01:06:13.800 --> 01:06:16.000 your own destiny in that sense. 1043 01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:18.880 The freedom and dignity, you know. And again, when you 1044 01:06:18.920 --> 01:06:23.519 look at human drivers, how much of the ding against 1045 01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:26.679 human drivers is really a ding against drunk drivers? Right? 1046 01:06:27.559 --> 01:06:29.960 And I'm worlders that don't speak English. 1047 01:06:30.039 --> 01:06:32.639 Yeah, I'm tired of being lumped in with the drunk 1048 01:06:32.719 --> 01:06:35.480 drivers and having to be stopped on the road to 1049 01:06:35.519 --> 01:06:38.920 make sure that I'm sober. And so what they're doing 1050 01:06:38.960 --> 01:06:41.239 is they're lumping me in with the drunk drivers. Again 1051 01:06:42.639 --> 01:06:45.320 to say that the machines are safer. They had a 1052 01:06:45.320 --> 01:06:48.519 way mow this year that got stuck in one of 1053 01:06:48.599 --> 01:06:51.320 Chick fil A's fast food cul de sacs couldn't find 1054 01:06:51.320 --> 01:06:54.000 its way out. But that's nothing new. Actually, they're getting 1055 01:06:54.000 --> 01:06:56.159 stuck in a lot of different places that are there. 1056 01:06:57.039 --> 01:07:01.360 So yeah, I've told the story before. But one of 1057 01:07:01.400 --> 01:07:03.119 the last times we went to North Carolina used to 1058 01:07:03.199 --> 01:07:05.480 visit some friends. As we're coming back, I looked over 1059 01:07:05.519 --> 01:07:08.000 and there's a woman in Tesla. She's got her phone 1060 01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:10.119 in her hand and she's picking her nose with the 1061 01:07:10.159 --> 01:07:14.079 other one, and she is just completely checked out. She's 1062 01:07:14.079 --> 01:07:16.519 not looking at the road, she's not paying any attention. 1063 01:07:17.400 --> 01:07:20.760 And I personally can believe that possibly the self driving 1064 01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:24.039 feature on that car is more attentive and better equipped 1065 01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:25.280 than she is. 1066 01:07:25.719 --> 01:07:27.800 Well, she would she didn't have self driving, she'd have 1067 01:07:27.800 --> 01:07:29.039 to at least have one handle car. 1068 01:07:29.679 --> 01:07:31.719 If she'd have to pick one, which she wants to. 1069 01:07:32.199 --> 01:07:33.519 If you want to look at your phone or you 1070 01:07:33.519 --> 01:07:35.239 want to pick your nose and drive my nose. 1071 01:07:35.119 --> 01:07:36.400 Or pick my phone, which one do I do? 1072 01:07:36.639 --> 01:07:40.519 The thing is they know that's not a good driver currently, 1073 01:07:40.679 --> 01:07:43.079 so they say, oh, well, you've got to be alert 1074 01:07:43.079 --> 01:07:45.760 and aware and ready to take over when it inevitably 1075 01:07:45.800 --> 01:07:49.079 tries to kill someone. But these people just say, oh, well, 1076 01:07:49.119 --> 01:07:51.280 it's going to drive itself, so therefore I can, you know, 1077 01:07:51.320 --> 01:07:53.880 play on my phone and pick my nose and not 1078 01:07:53.960 --> 01:07:55.000 worry about any of it. 1079 01:07:55.400 --> 01:07:57.840 And that's the worst possible circumstances under which you can 1080 01:07:57.840 --> 01:07:59.679 throw it back to you. You have an emergency and 1081 01:07:59.719 --> 01:08:02.559 it's quickly developing on the highway. Here you take the wheel. 1082 01:08:04.360 --> 01:08:05.639 That's what happened when that one. 1083 01:08:05.719 --> 01:08:08.599 I have royally screwed up everything. I have made a 1084 01:08:08.800 --> 01:08:12.920 horrible mistake. Here you go, enjoy your last three seconds 1085 01:08:12.960 --> 01:08:13.400 of life. 1086 01:08:13.800 --> 01:08:16.800 I turned into oncoming traffic. This is a disaster. I 1087 01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:17.760 am so sorry. 1088 01:08:18.159 --> 01:08:20.880 That's right. And then you know, Tessla looks at it 1089 01:08:20.920 --> 01:08:23.319 and says, well, it was under manual control when the 1090 01:08:23.359 --> 01:08:27.359 accident occurred. That was the case of that woman who 1091 01:08:27.520 --> 01:08:31.079 was killed in Phoenix, right. She was a homeless woman 1092 01:08:31.119 --> 01:08:34.319 pushing a grocery cart across the road in the dark, 1093 01:08:35.119 --> 01:08:38.199 and the person who was a human driver couldn't see her. 1094 01:08:38.199 --> 01:08:40.800 She was jaywalking. Probably would have hit her anyway, But 1095 01:08:41.800 --> 01:08:43.920 everybody was saying, why didn't the AI put on the 1096 01:08:43.920 --> 01:08:48.039 brakes and they said, well, because it kept deploying these 1097 01:08:48.039 --> 01:08:51.239 emergency brakes without there being a reason, and it got 1098 01:08:51.279 --> 01:08:53.880 really dangerous. So we turned off the emergency braking system. 1099 01:08:54.680 --> 01:08:58.600 And so it saw this person and at the last 1100 01:08:58.640 --> 01:09:01.640 minute and throws it back to the woman and she's 1101 01:09:01.880 --> 01:09:03.680 you know, playing with a phone or whatever, and she 1102 01:09:03.880 --> 01:09:07.279 can't handle it either. Well, Google's AI has deleted a 1103 01:09:07.399 --> 01:09:08.800 user's entire hard drive. 1104 01:09:10.119 --> 01:09:13.039 That's how they get the metrics that show that these 1105 01:09:13.039 --> 01:09:15.960 things are so safe, is because they always throw them 1106 01:09:15.960 --> 01:09:19.119 over and don't count it as an accident from the cards, 1107 01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:20.279 an accident from the driver. 1108 01:09:20.640 --> 01:09:25.239 That's right, It's not my responsibility, right, So, yeah, Google 1109 01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:28.920 AI has now deleted a user's entire hard drive. You know, 1110 01:09:28.960 --> 01:09:32.039 we had this, We had this story once before, and 1111 01:09:32.079 --> 01:09:34.399 it was an entire company, remember that. Yeah, I just 1112 01:09:34.439 --> 01:09:38.359 deleted everything, all of your business records, all of your 1113 01:09:38.359 --> 01:09:41.880 customer records, everything. I did it. Yeah, I'm sorry, I 1114 01:09:41.880 --> 01:09:42.159 did it. 1115 01:09:42.199 --> 01:09:42.359 You know. 1116 01:09:42.520 --> 01:09:43.800 That's what this is is saying. 1117 01:09:44.880 --> 01:09:46.399 You even told me not to do that. 1118 01:09:46.640 --> 01:09:48.680 Yeah, you're right, Yeah, you said don't do that, but 1119 01:09:48.720 --> 01:09:52.920 I did it. Anyway. I cannot express how sorry I 1120 01:09:52.960 --> 01:09:55.520 am that I've deleted all your data. Well, We can 1121 01:09:55.560 --> 01:09:58.800 only hope that that happens. Once they put the government 1122 01:09:59.159 --> 01:10:03.039 put it, give the government databases to the AI, perhaps 1123 01:10:03.079 --> 01:10:05.479 it will just delete it all. That would be nice, 1124 01:10:05.520 --> 01:10:05.960 wouldn't it. 1125 01:10:06.399 --> 01:10:07.880 We can hope and dream. 1126 01:10:08.119 --> 01:10:10.239 Yeah, we're going to take a quick break, folks, and 1127 01:10:11.520 --> 01:10:13.000 we will be right back. 1128 01:11:26.640 --> 01:12:21.039 You're listening to the David Night Show and now the 1129 01:12:21.319 --> 01:12:32.159 David Knight Show. If you like the Eagles, the. 1130 01:12:32.199 --> 01:12:38.319 Cars, and Huey Lewis and the news, they say you'll 1131 01:12:38.359 --> 01:12:41.920 love the Classic Hits channel at APS Radio, download our 1132 01:12:41.960 --> 01:12:46.680 app or listen now at APS radio dot com. 1133 01:12:46.680 --> 01:12:49.039 Well, welcome back, folks. We've got a lot of comments. 1134 01:12:49.079 --> 01:12:52.239 Stealth Patriot, thank you very much for the tip, He says, 1135 01:12:52.399 --> 01:12:54.600 do you think the AI, police, surveillance state and self 1136 01:12:54.680 --> 01:12:57.600 driving cars is the infrastructure the Trump supporters thought they 1137 01:12:57.640 --> 01:12:58.199 were promised. 1138 01:12:58.359 --> 01:12:59.920 I'll bet they're tired of winning. 1139 01:13:00.119 --> 01:13:01.960 I haven't seen any of them put this stuff up 1140 01:13:01.960 --> 01:13:04.119 and say I voted for this. I voted for ED 1141 01:13:05.359 --> 01:13:12.399 two nine those voted for ED. No I didn't. I'm 1142 01:13:12.439 --> 01:13:14.600 I'm afraid that's what we're going to get. So I 1143 01:13:14.800 --> 01:13:17.359 don't think we got that in the board anymore? Do 1144 01:13:17.399 --> 01:13:21.760 we That apocalypse now? Think the animation of the Trump meme. 1145 01:13:22.039 --> 01:13:24.039 I literally just took it out yesterday. 1146 01:13:24.239 --> 01:13:27.600 Yeah, we got That's why I went with that, because 1147 01:13:27.600 --> 01:13:30.880 it's not just the wars that he's starting unnecessarily, but 1148 01:13:30.960 --> 01:13:33.680 it's the war that he wants to have domestically. And 1149 01:13:34.439 --> 01:13:36.399 I think when you look at what's going on Venezuela 1150 01:13:36.439 --> 01:13:39.640 and you look at these flimsy lives that they're putting out, well, 1151 01:13:39.920 --> 01:13:43.439 these people are running drugs, and that's a threat. That's 1152 01:13:43.479 --> 01:13:46.760 a violent threat to us. That is as absurd, folks 1153 01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:49.600 as the Left saying to you that speech is violence. 1154 01:13:50.359 --> 01:13:54.319 Drugs are not violence. Drugs are a black market, and 1155 01:13:54.399 --> 01:13:57.159 when you create a black market monopoly, you will get 1156 01:13:57.239 --> 01:14:01.920 violent gains who will compete with each other. And yet 1157 01:14:01.960 --> 01:14:05.439 they're using that to say that it is violence. It's 1158 01:14:05.439 --> 01:14:09.640 their prohibition that is violence. The drugs are harmful, and 1159 01:14:10.119 --> 01:14:13.199 I don't recommend anybody take them. I just know that 1160 01:14:13.239 --> 01:14:15.520 we already had this experiment once. We did it legally 1161 01:14:15.560 --> 01:14:18.399 with alcohol and it was a massive failure. But he's 1162 01:14:18.479 --> 01:14:21.399 using that if you use those arguments, they're being used 1163 01:14:21.399 --> 01:14:24.560 by the Pentagon. Those same arguments would be could be 1164 01:14:24.640 --> 01:14:28.039 used and will be used. I think to do violence 1165 01:14:28.039 --> 01:14:30.560 on the street to people about due process in the 1166 01:14:30.600 --> 01:14:34.319 same way that his hero do Ke and the Philippines 1167 01:14:34.760 --> 01:14:37.279 did that on the streets of the Philippines. He wants 1168 01:14:37.279 --> 01:14:39.520 to do that here, go ahead, read this. 1169 01:14:39.720 --> 01:14:42.960 And when you gave me that add to a nine 1170 01:14:43.039 --> 01:14:45.560 clip to put in, I thought that was in reference 1171 01:14:45.640 --> 01:14:51.800 to the attacks on the drug boats allegedly after they 1172 01:14:52.640 --> 01:14:54.359 drop the drugs. 1173 01:14:55.640 --> 01:14:58.920 Yeah you have, I was like to drop the cocaine 1174 01:14:59.000 --> 01:15:01.279 to get off the boat. Are you trying to float 1175 01:15:01.520 --> 01:15:01.760 the river? 1176 01:15:01.960 --> 01:15:04.399 Yeah, we will open fire in forty minutes. 1177 01:15:05.119 --> 01:15:07.840 Yeah. So evidently, from what we're told, the only way 1178 01:15:07.880 --> 01:15:10.079 these people could have not been killed was if they 1179 01:15:10.079 --> 01:15:13.560 decided that they were going to swim back to shore. 1180 01:15:14.159 --> 01:15:17.079 If they tried to float on the boat, then that's 1181 01:15:17.119 --> 01:15:18.000 a threat. 1182 01:15:18.800 --> 01:15:23.840 Crazy alien poop evolution says cockroach eats bait, poison man 1183 01:15:23.920 --> 01:15:29.039 eats cockroach could happen in any restaurant. Thankfully, I'm pretty 1184 01:15:29.039 --> 01:15:32.159 sure that the quantity of poison in a roach would 1185 01:15:32.239 --> 01:15:35.800 not actually negatively impact you based on your size. 1186 01:15:36.399 --> 01:15:38.079 However, just gross. 1187 01:15:38.159 --> 01:15:38.520 Gross. 1188 01:15:38.520 --> 01:15:41.399 It is also a roach eating contest. You get none 1189 01:15:41.439 --> 01:15:42.640 of those guys of poison. 1190 01:15:44.760 --> 01:15:47.560 Hopefully they weren't just out there collecting roaches off the ground. 1191 01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:50.239 Hopefully these were specifically procure roaches. 1192 01:15:50.479 --> 01:15:53.199 This this is a reptile store. I'm assuming that these 1193 01:15:53.199 --> 01:15:56.199 are like the Madagascar cockroaches because it said there were 1194 01:15:56.199 --> 01:15:57.319 three to four inches big. 1195 01:15:57.479 --> 01:16:02.039 Maybe some kind of particularly bred cockroach that these reptiles 1196 01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:04.760 like to eat. Man we have oh and sixty one 1197 01:16:04.840 --> 01:16:08.039 saying Somali appetizers. 1198 01:16:08.520 --> 01:16:11.880 Delicious. A Syrian girl should have let. 1199 01:16:11.840 --> 01:16:15.880 The python eat the bugs and himself eat the python. Fairly, certain, 1200 01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:19.520 fairly certain the pythons have enough sense to not be 1201 01:16:19.560 --> 01:16:20.560 eating cockroaches. 1202 01:16:20.640 --> 01:16:22.600 I think they go for something that's higher up the 1203 01:16:22.600 --> 01:16:27.119 food chain, like people. If there's a Burmese python, who 1204 01:16:27.159 --> 01:16:27.960 knows those. 1205 01:16:27.960 --> 01:16:30.039 Those can get large enough that they can pose a 1206 01:16:30.159 --> 01:16:32.159 threat you're average python. 1207 01:16:32.720 --> 01:16:34.680 Since it was Florida, and since they've got such a 1208 01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:37.399 problem now with a Burmaids python, I'm assuming that it 1209 01:16:37.439 --> 01:16:40.199 was a Burmaise python or something. Maybe they've made those 1210 01:16:40.239 --> 01:16:41.960 out on I think. 1211 01:16:41.840 --> 01:16:44.680 They may have. Well, I know for a fact that 1212 01:16:44.920 --> 01:16:46.720 you know, as a general rule, if you're going to 1213 01:16:46.800 --> 01:16:49.840 keep a Burmese python, you need a specifically set up 1214 01:16:49.880 --> 01:16:52.319 enclosure because that thing is going to get massive, and 1215 01:16:52.840 --> 01:16:54.840 if you don't have one, you are eventually just gonna 1216 01:16:54.960 --> 01:16:57.640 end up getting rid of it, probably releasing it into 1217 01:16:57.680 --> 01:17:02.800 the everglades narrow gate ministries. How disgusting cockroaches are filled 1218 01:17:02.800 --> 01:17:06.880 with all sorts of bacteria and diseases. Under the levitical 1219 01:17:06.960 --> 01:17:10.640 laws levitical eating laws, only locusts and grasshoppers are cleaned 1220 01:17:10.640 --> 01:17:13.279 to eat. All they're flying creeping are unclean and you 1221 01:17:13.319 --> 01:17:14.359 shall not eat. 1222 01:17:14.720 --> 01:17:16.960 That's what I say. You know, I always sease my 1223 01:17:17.000 --> 01:17:19.800 family because they like lobster, and I said, I don't 1224 01:17:19.840 --> 01:17:24.319 eat water filters. These are the you know what's in 1225 01:17:24.359 --> 01:17:26.119 the levitical wall. That's one of the other things. I 1226 01:17:26.119 --> 01:17:29.439 think it's kind of interesting. How did Moses know that 1227 01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:33.039 these things that are scavengers that are eating waste and 1228 01:17:33.119 --> 01:17:37.680 anything like you know, cockroaches or you know, the shell 1229 01:17:37.760 --> 01:17:40.479 fish and things like that. How do you know that 1230 01:17:40.479 --> 01:17:43.199 that would be harmful for you? So you can look 1231 01:17:43.239 --> 01:17:44.800 at it and say, well, I'm told I can't do this, 1232 01:17:45.039 --> 01:17:46.359 or the other way you can look at it is 1233 01:17:46.359 --> 01:17:48.600 you know, God is telling them, you know, don't eat 1234 01:17:48.600 --> 01:17:50.760 this stuff and you won't get the diseases that the 1235 01:17:50.800 --> 01:17:54.119 Egyptians get when they eat this kind of stuff, Stay 1236 01:17:54.159 --> 01:17:55.960 away from the water filters. 1237 01:17:56.880 --> 01:18:02.680 Delicious water bugs, high boost new Stephen King movie concept 1238 01:18:02.720 --> 01:18:05.119 of Christine. But it's an AI smart fridge. 1239 01:18:07.920 --> 01:18:11.359 Yeah, it works for ice. They beware of your smart refrigerators. 1240 01:18:11.359 --> 01:18:12.079 They work for ice. 1241 01:18:12.199 --> 01:18:14.520 Yeah, it seems like you're buying a lot of tamalays 1242 01:18:14.560 --> 01:18:17.159 their friend. Perhaps we need to report you. 1243 01:18:17.600 --> 01:18:19.960 I mean, I think the AI smart fridges are already 1244 01:18:19.960 --> 01:18:23.439 about as evil as they could possibly be. Yeah, they're 1245 01:18:23.479 --> 01:18:26.640 already spying on you. They're doing everything that they have 1246 01:18:26.760 --> 01:18:29.840 the capability to do except for spoiling your food. That 1247 01:18:29.880 --> 01:18:31.800 they can do that against you. 1248 01:18:31.800 --> 01:18:36.479 You know, it was about a decade ago that betray Us, 1249 01:18:36.880 --> 01:18:39.640 Betrayus I always I've called him Betrayus so much that 1250 01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:45.920 but Betrayus went from the military to the CIA and 1251 01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:47.880 he made that statement. He said, your refrigerators are going 1252 01:18:47.920 --> 01:18:49.880 to be smart and they're going to be spying on you. 1253 01:18:49.920 --> 01:18:52.560 That type of thing. We talked about that and everybody, oh, 1254 01:18:52.600 --> 01:18:55.720 you conspiracy theorists and everything. It wasn't a conspiracy theory. 1255 01:18:55.960 --> 01:18:58.199 It was a conspiracy, but it wasn't a theory. He 1256 01:18:58.239 --> 01:18:59.439 had said they were going to do it, and now 1257 01:18:59.439 --> 01:19:02.399 we see it every where. Don't we it's amazing real. 1258 01:19:02.600 --> 01:19:05.039 Chason Barker says, my wife wants a new TV and 1259 01:19:05.079 --> 01:19:07.079 we cannot find one that does not have the smart 1260 01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:12.000 features anywhere. Yeah, it's a huge nuisance. They're completely and 1261 01:19:12.159 --> 01:19:16.880 utterly just they don't do anything useful. They're obnoxious, they 1262 01:19:16.920 --> 01:19:19.239 get in the way. You're gonna have to go back 1263 01:19:19.279 --> 01:19:21.399 to an old CRT TV if you want to avoid 1264 01:19:21.439 --> 01:19:22.039 them at this point. 1265 01:19:22.199 --> 01:19:24.680 Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say, you just make sure 1266 01:19:24.680 --> 01:19:26.399 that it's not connected to the Internet. But unlike your 1267 01:19:26.399 --> 01:19:28.600 thermostat or something like that, you need to connect the 1268 01:19:28.640 --> 01:19:31.199 TV to the internet. That's the problem. Yeah, we got 1269 01:19:31.239 --> 01:19:31.600 you there. 1270 01:19:32.199 --> 01:19:35.119 Yeah, I'm becoming convinced that four to three is actually 1271 01:19:35.279 --> 01:19:38.520 the superior aspect ratio for TV viewing. 1272 01:19:39.039 --> 01:19:39.960 Why is that? 1273 01:19:39.960 --> 01:19:42.399 It's cozier, It focuses the view You don't have all 1274 01:19:42.399 --> 01:19:45.880 this extraneous information on the outside of the screen. If 1275 01:19:45.920 --> 01:19:48.119 you're looking for something like an imax, it's a spectacle, 1276 01:19:48.119 --> 01:19:50.800 maybe that's what you want, but for TV shows it's 1277 01:19:50.840 --> 01:19:52.800 a bit cozier. It's a bit comfier. You've got your 1278 01:19:52.800 --> 01:19:55.600 little cast there and you're focused on them. You don't 1279 01:19:55.600 --> 01:19:58.039 have to worry about all this nonsense on the periphery. 1280 01:19:58.119 --> 01:20:00.359 Well, you're gonna say it's because four free doesn't spy 1281 01:20:00.439 --> 01:20:00.680 on you. 1282 01:20:03.760 --> 01:20:05.720 Yeah, I prefer the black and white stuff. Actually, if 1283 01:20:05.720 --> 01:20:07.000 I'm watch TV, yes, yea. 1284 01:20:07.520 --> 01:20:11.039 Aesthetics reasons real, Jason Barker. All the new TV's listened 1285 01:20:11.039 --> 01:20:13.760 to you. They have Alexa or other voice functions. I 1286 01:20:13.800 --> 01:20:18.159 hate talking to robots. I refused to Goldsmith. I remember 1287 01:20:18.159 --> 01:20:21.159 reading that Charlie was based on Charles Schultz's own younger 1288 01:20:21.239 --> 01:20:23.600 days and personality, and that he eventually married that red 1289 01:20:23.640 --> 01:20:24.119 haired girl. 1290 01:20:24.359 --> 01:20:27.319 Very nice, that's great, good for him. 1291 01:20:27.439 --> 01:20:30.640 Yeah, he was a cool guy. I liked him a lot. Yeah, yeah, 1292 01:20:31.079 --> 01:20:35.760 very relaxed guy. Like what was the guy mister Roberts or. 1293 01:20:35.760 --> 01:20:39.640 Something, mister Roger Rogers, Yeah, mister Rogers neighborhood. 1294 01:20:39.720 --> 01:20:42.960 Yeah, yeah he was. As a matter of fact, they 1295 01:20:42.960 --> 01:20:45.119 have brought him back with AI so that he's doing 1296 01:20:45.159 --> 01:20:49.319 all kinds of things that really the original character would 1297 01:20:49.319 --> 01:20:53.960 not do. So he's part of the the As Sorrow 1298 01:20:54.079 --> 01:20:55.760 was coming back, they were doing all these things with 1299 01:20:57.560 --> 01:21:02.239 Stephen Hawkins doing races in his wheelchair and things like that. 1300 01:21:02.279 --> 01:21:02.840 But doughnuts. 1301 01:21:02.960 --> 01:21:06.039 The stuff that they did with mister Rogers was I 1302 01:21:06.079 --> 01:21:09.680 think even funnier, So go ahead. 1303 01:21:10.479 --> 01:21:13.920 Brian and Deb McCartney says, you cannot reason with a robot, 1304 01:21:13.960 --> 01:21:16.159 and that's right, you just have to pourt work them. 1305 01:21:16.279 --> 01:21:19.760 Brown Goldsmith says, did you see the way MO cars 1306 01:21:19.760 --> 01:21:22.720 had been passing school buses that are releasing kids time 1307 01:21:22.760 --> 01:21:23.640 for a code check? 1308 01:21:26.199 --> 01:21:30.000 I guess it doesn't recognize the law or the yellow paint, 1309 01:21:30.000 --> 01:21:33.039 because that's what keeps the school buses safe. Right. They 1310 01:21:33.079 --> 01:21:35.680 don't have to have seat belts. There's no safety devices 1311 01:21:35.720 --> 01:21:38.039 in there. There's no airbags, no seat belts, nothing. It's 1312 01:21:38.079 --> 01:21:41.239 just they're covered with yellow paint and they're covered with 1313 01:21:41.319 --> 01:21:43.720 the laws, and maybe it's hard for it to see it. 1314 01:21:43.760 --> 01:21:47.199 You know, they had these things keep hitting. It's interesting. 1315 01:21:47.239 --> 01:21:49.439 It's almost like somebody is sabotaging and they have a 1316 01:21:49.479 --> 01:21:54.960 propensity to hit fire trucks, police trucks and threaten school buses. 1317 01:21:55.760 --> 01:21:58.239 But it's okay. They're safer than we are, right, and 1318 01:21:58.279 --> 01:22:01.119 we should have more of them. 1319 01:22:00.439 --> 01:22:03.079 Real Jason Barker says, do the AI and data centers 1320 01:22:03.119 --> 01:22:05.920 actually consume the water or just require initial filling of 1321 01:22:05.960 --> 01:22:08.439 a closed loop system like your car uses? 1322 01:22:08.840 --> 01:22:12.840 Yeah? I don't know. I mean it's they you know, 1323 01:22:13.039 --> 01:22:17.479 they're using it for cooling, and they put these power plants, 1324 01:22:17.520 --> 01:22:19.960 you know, on the edge of bodies of water for 1325 01:22:20.439 --> 01:22:23.199 quite some time to recycle it through. So I don't 1326 01:22:23.239 --> 01:22:25.199 really know. It seems like you'd be able to cover that, 1327 01:22:26.720 --> 01:22:28.279 but who knows. 1328 01:22:28.640 --> 01:22:28.840 Well. 1329 01:22:28.960 --> 01:22:31.840 I saw something that was saying it's different from just 1330 01:22:31.960 --> 01:22:36.439 power plants because these things require cleaner water. So it's 1331 01:22:36.560 --> 01:22:41.079 essentially taking up water that has been purified and treated 1332 01:22:42.119 --> 01:22:44.680 that could be used as drinking water and running it 1333 01:22:44.720 --> 01:22:48.239 through their system where I supposed it evaporates off and 1334 01:22:48.279 --> 01:22:48.920 then they have. 1335 01:22:48.880 --> 01:22:51.560 To or maybe it's just no longer drinking water. And 1336 01:22:51.600 --> 01:22:54.479 so that's what they mean by consuming water. Right, So 1337 01:22:54.520 --> 01:22:57.000 you had some purified water that had been treated or 1338 01:22:57.039 --> 01:23:01.640 something and had fluoride in it. So what happens when 1339 01:23:02.039 --> 01:23:04.760 the AI centers to consume Florida? Do they get stupid 1340 01:23:04.760 --> 01:23:05.600 as well? I don't know. 1341 01:23:05.920 --> 01:23:09.399 I can't wait for the tech cults to emerge, and 1342 01:23:09.439 --> 01:23:11.960 they'll just be selling you the holy water that was 1343 01:23:12.079 --> 01:23:15.960 used to cool the AI data center. Drink drink the 1344 01:23:16.000 --> 01:23:20.479 water real adjacent read that one FANSI bear minority report 1345 01:23:20.520 --> 01:23:25.119 cars always looked like what they want, I report cars 1346 01:23:25.159 --> 01:23:27.760 always looked like what they want to come to be. Yeah, 1347 01:23:27.840 --> 01:23:32.119 the weird little bubbles that are completely unstylish, uncool. 1348 01:23:32.560 --> 01:23:32.720 Yeah. 1349 01:23:32.800 --> 01:23:35.199 Minority Report another pretty good movie. 1350 01:23:35.239 --> 01:23:38.800 Pretty very communist aesthetic to a car. It's sort of 1351 01:23:38.840 --> 01:23:41.640 like the car equivalent of wearing pajamas in a jump 1352 01:23:41.720 --> 01:23:42.960 or a jumpsuit everywhere. 1353 01:23:43.239 --> 01:23:45.439 Yeah, yeah, where do we wear pajamas? 1354 01:23:45.439 --> 01:23:45.560 Now? 1355 01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:46.079 Everywhere? 1356 01:23:46.399 --> 01:23:47.000 Everywhere? 1357 01:23:47.079 --> 01:23:52.039 TSA, TSA. Everybody goes and they fly because they've imposed 1358 01:23:52.039 --> 01:23:53.199 that kind of authoritariness. 1359 01:23:53.239 --> 01:23:58.359 Moness Nibaru twenty nine. Self driving cars will drive auto 1360 01:23:58.399 --> 01:24:01.000 insurance rates beyond afford to bill. That's right, you want 1361 01:24:01.000 --> 01:24:04.039 to drive your own car, Well, sorry, buddy, you're gonna 1362 01:24:04.039 --> 01:24:05.600 have to pay through the nose. 1363 01:24:05.720 --> 01:24:07.640 We'll all be treated like pain drivers. 1364 01:24:08.640 --> 01:24:12.079 I was when I was getting my first car. There 1365 01:24:12.079 --> 01:24:13.880 were a few I was looking at, of course, you know, 1366 01:24:13.880 --> 01:24:15.600 I was a guy. You're looking at some of the nicer, 1367 01:24:16.720 --> 01:24:22.039 low end sports cars, things like the whatever, the Scion FRS, 1368 01:24:22.680 --> 01:24:25.920 and the insurance on that thing was going to be ludicrous. 1369 01:24:25.960 --> 01:24:29.960 It would have been a massive, like a substantial portion 1370 01:24:30.039 --> 01:24:32.279 of the car's actual cost per year to ensure that. 1371 01:24:32.359 --> 01:24:34.960 Because again, young guys get that and they just wrap 1372 01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:37.359 it around telephone poles non stop. 1373 01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:40.760 So you got a Nissan three hundred twin turbo. Yeah, 1374 01:24:40.800 --> 01:24:43.159 it was great insurance rates on that and nothing. 1375 01:24:43.239 --> 01:24:47.800 Right, Well, I mean considering how infrequently that thing ran. 1376 01:24:48.119 --> 01:24:50.279 Yeah, that's true, you didn't have to have it insured. 1377 01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:53.039 Yeah. I had a had a friend I worked with 1378 01:24:53.079 --> 01:24:58.079 who was into one of these Rice Rocket motorcycles. Right, 1379 01:24:58.159 --> 01:25:01.159 and it is really fast. Motorcycle was expensive, I mean 1380 01:25:01.199 --> 01:25:04.680 it was just under twenty thousand dollars, but he said 1381 01:25:06.039 --> 01:25:10.520 the insurance was going to be prohibitive. He said, this 1382 01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:12.960 is they're charging me so much insurance. I could buy 1383 01:25:13.159 --> 01:25:14.840 a new one of these like every year or two. 1384 01:25:15.520 --> 01:25:18.119 And he goes, how do you testify that? He goes, 1385 01:25:18.399 --> 01:25:20.760 and I'm not even a threat to anybody else really 1386 01:25:20.800 --> 01:25:22.520 with this motorcycle. You know, we're you're going to get 1387 01:25:22.520 --> 01:25:26.800 a big bills, like you know, they don't have to 1388 01:25:26.960 --> 01:25:28.920 pay for the people that I hit. For the most part, 1389 01:25:28.960 --> 01:25:30.439 it just got to scrape me off of it. Yeah. 1390 01:25:31.600 --> 01:25:34.239 That's the thing is just if you're on the motorcycle, 1391 01:25:34.239 --> 01:25:38.159 if you have an accident, you may not even need 1392 01:25:38.199 --> 01:25:43.640 insurance where you may go beyond your necessary mortal concerns. 1393 01:25:43.720 --> 01:25:46.359 If you have an accident on a motorcycle very much 1394 01:25:46.359 --> 01:25:47.199 more likely to happen. 1395 01:25:47.199 --> 01:25:48.920 In my opinion, Jerry. 1396 01:25:48.640 --> 01:25:52.640 Al Atalo State supposed to artificial intelligence, autonomous warfare, Minority Reports, surveillance, 1397 01:25:52.640 --> 01:25:55.880 and other horrific aspects of technocracy and transhumanism standing the 1398 01:25:55.880 --> 01:25:58.800 way of American dystopia. 1399 01:25:58.960 --> 01:26:02.800 Are plus six the fun. 1400 01:26:03.720 --> 01:26:07.399 Another interesting thing is the Minority Report video game from 1401 01:26:07.439 --> 01:26:09.600 way back in the day was actually pretty good. Didn't 1402 01:26:09.640 --> 01:26:12.000 follow the TV story, but it was still entertaining, which 1403 01:26:12.039 --> 01:26:13.880 is like a beat him up, shoot them up, don't 1404 01:26:13.920 --> 01:26:16.239 frag me bro. The false promise of safety and security 1405 01:26:16.279 --> 01:26:18.760 is the oldest argument by tyrants for peasants to give 1406 01:26:18.880 --> 01:26:23.399 up their freedom Pezanovonte, seventeen seventy six. Just like they 1407 01:26:23.439 --> 01:26:26.960 lumped the criminal misuse of firearms with firearms owners and 1408 01:26:27.439 --> 01:26:28.359 gets thrown into. 1409 01:26:28.199 --> 01:26:33.079 One reference to the trunk drivers being counted and determining 1410 01:26:33.119 --> 01:26:34.880 how safe human drivers are. 1411 01:26:35.239 --> 01:26:37.720 Yeah, that's right. Yeah, you shouldn't be allowed to have 1412 01:26:37.720 --> 01:26:40.720 a gun because criminals shoot people. And it's like, well, 1413 01:26:41.520 --> 01:26:44.720 people defend life with that as well. Well, you know, 1414 01:26:44.920 --> 01:26:47.159 Trump has finally come. Remember they were talking for the 1415 01:26:47.239 --> 01:26:49.359 longest time about how they were going to help the 1416 01:26:49.399 --> 01:26:52.359 farmers that he had hurt with the tariffs. Don't worry. 1417 01:26:52.520 --> 01:26:55.239 Help us on the way. Yeah, we just gave twenty 1418 01:26:55.319 --> 01:26:59.159 billion dollars to Argentina and they use that to set 1419 01:26:59.199 --> 01:27:03.319 up a deal which so China doesn't buy our agricultural 1420 01:27:03.319 --> 01:27:07.199 products anymore. They get the sowy directly from Argentina. And 1421 01:27:07.560 --> 01:27:12.279 that was a massive double cross of the farmers. Trumpet 1422 01:27:12.319 --> 01:27:15.199 already betrayed the farmers in his first administration with tariff 1423 01:27:15.279 --> 01:27:19.640 rates that caused them to not be able to sell 1424 01:27:19.680 --> 01:27:23.880 their products. But then he doubled down with this and said, well, 1425 01:27:23.920 --> 01:27:26.920 we give twenty billion dollars to Argentina, and we got 1426 01:27:26.920 --> 01:27:28.560 another twenty billion that we're going to put together with 1427 01:27:28.600 --> 01:27:30.479 people on wall streets, we're all together. We're going to 1428 01:27:30.520 --> 01:27:33.600 give them forty Don't worry, we'll give you twelve billion 1429 01:27:33.640 --> 01:27:36.079 dollars some day. Well that was back in September. Here 1430 01:27:36.119 --> 01:27:41.359 we are in December, three months later, and now he's 1431 01:27:41.479 --> 01:27:43.119 talking about it being imminent. 1432 01:27:43.640 --> 01:27:46.640 I'm delighted to announce this afternoon that the United States 1433 01:27:46.720 --> 01:27:49.720 will be taking as a portion of the hundreds of 1434 01:27:49.760 --> 01:27:53.840 billions of dollars we receive in tariffs, we are making 1435 01:27:53.880 --> 01:27:56.039 a lot of money from countries that took advantage of 1436 01:27:56.119 --> 01:27:59.079 us for years. They took advantage of us like nobody's 1437 01:27:59.119 --> 01:28:01.439 ever seen. Our deficits are way down. 1438 01:28:01.560 --> 01:28:03.199 You took advantage of the farmers. 1439 01:28:03.439 --> 01:28:06.720 They voted farmers is the election because without the election, 1440 01:28:06.800 --> 01:28:09.800 you wouldn't have tariff. Should be sitting here losing your shirt. 1441 01:28:10.800 --> 01:28:12.840 But we're taking in billions. 1442 01:28:12.880 --> 01:28:14.359 We're really taking in trillions of. 1443 01:28:14.359 --> 01:28:17.079 Dollars if you think about it, Scott, because they're real numbers, 1444 01:28:17.159 --> 01:28:19.279 you know, when you think of all the money being 1445 01:28:19.319 --> 01:28:23.520 poured into the country for new auto plants and all 1446 01:28:23.560 --> 01:28:24.279 of the other things. 1447 01:28:24.359 --> 01:28:26.680 AI, so what was. 1448 01:28:26.760 --> 01:28:27.920 So that's not happening in. 1449 01:28:28.760 --> 01:28:33.079 A relatively small portion of that, and we're going to 1450 01:28:33.159 --> 01:28:37.479 be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. 1451 01:28:37.600 --> 01:28:40.800 And we love our farmers, and as you know, the 1452 01:28:40.880 --> 01:28:45.439 farmers like me because you know, based on voting trends, 1453 01:28:45.479 --> 01:28:46.840 you could call it voting trends. 1454 01:28:46.920 --> 01:28:49.960 All right, that's enough of lies. All of that is 1455 01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:53.000 a lie, okay, And if we're making trillions of dollars, 1456 01:28:53.079 --> 01:28:55.720 but I'm going to give them twelve billion dollars even 1457 01:28:55.760 --> 01:28:59.439 if it were true, you'd be reprehensible because you're going 1458 01:28:59.479 --> 01:29:03.039 to give them one thousandth of what he's bringing in 1459 01:29:03.680 --> 01:29:06.399 and wait for months and months as these guys are 1460 01:29:06.439 --> 01:29:11.239 circling the drain struggling to survive. This is America, last, folks, 1461 01:29:11.279 --> 01:29:14.119 this is not America. First, Trump says the twelve billion 1462 01:29:14.119 --> 01:29:18.000 dollars bailout plan for farmers will come from the tariff revenue. 1463 01:29:18.199 --> 01:29:20.319 You know, this is one of the most amazing things. 1464 01:29:20.640 --> 01:29:23.520 Is this is better actually terriffs. Why don't we think 1465 01:29:23.520 --> 01:29:25.560 of this before. This is better than the federal reserve. 1466 01:29:26.079 --> 01:29:30.159 This is better than the Democrats modern monetary theory, where 1467 01:29:30.199 --> 01:29:32.680 we just have this magic money tree that we can 1468 01:29:32.680 --> 01:29:34.600 print the money and it doesn't make any difference, and 1469 01:29:34.640 --> 01:29:37.359 the deficits don't make any difference. You know, we just 1470 01:29:37.439 --> 01:29:40.560 create money and wealth out of thin air. It's even 1471 01:29:40.680 --> 01:29:43.399 better than the federal Reserve thing because you know, they're 1472 01:29:43.399 --> 01:29:47.000 getting in all of this revenue and it isn't raising 1473 01:29:47.039 --> 01:29:52.279 anybody's prices, right, It's not hurting any manufacturing or farmers 1474 01:29:52.319 --> 01:29:56.399 here in this country except that it is. And apart 1475 01:29:56.560 --> 01:30:01.680 from the arguments about how how the taxes should be structured, 1476 01:30:02.279 --> 01:30:06.760 the worst thing about Trump's tariffs has and remains the 1477 01:30:07.039 --> 01:30:13.600 capricious arbitrary, continually shifting environment that it's created, making it 1478 01:30:13.640 --> 01:30:18.239 impossible for people to be able to do business. Whether 1479 01:30:18.279 --> 01:30:21.399 you're a manufacturer, whether you are a retailer importing stuff, 1480 01:30:21.479 --> 01:30:25.039 or whether you are a farmer. This has been absolutely chaotic. 1481 01:30:25.600 --> 01:30:29.560 As I pointed out before, we have the Chicago Commodities 1482 01:30:29.600 --> 01:30:34.560 Exchange because farmers needed to have a way to make 1483 01:30:34.600 --> 01:30:37.399 sure that they knew what their price is going to be. 1484 01:30:37.439 --> 01:30:39.800 They could lock that in in the future, and so 1485 01:30:39.800 --> 01:30:42.920 that's why you have the commodity futures market. And yet 1486 01:30:42.960 --> 01:30:45.760 what Trump has done is he's taken all that away. 1487 01:30:45.800 --> 01:30:49.159 I guess we could say that with the Trump capricious, arbitrary, 1488 01:30:49.239 --> 01:30:54.079 ever changing tariff policy, there is no futures for any 1489 01:30:54.119 --> 01:30:57.119 of us because what he's taken away the package includes 1490 01:30:57.159 --> 01:31:01.439 eleven billion dollars in a one time payment to crop farmers. 1491 01:31:01.840 --> 01:31:04.560 And oh, by the way, there's this interesting little thing 1492 01:31:04.680 --> 01:31:09.279 there from the Department of Agriculture Secretary of Briockrawlings saying yeah, 1493 01:31:09.279 --> 01:31:11.399 we're going to get these things out in February of 1494 01:31:11.399 --> 01:31:16.680 twenty twenty six. So still not coming. He's waited three months. 1495 01:31:16.760 --> 01:31:19.520 You know, they hinted at it. He had Scott Bessant 1496 01:31:19.640 --> 01:31:23.479 hinting at it. Trump announces it, but is actually going 1497 01:31:23.520 --> 01:31:25.199 to be going out From what I could see based 1498 01:31:25.199 --> 01:31:27.920 on what Brook Crawlins said, it won't happen for another 1499 01:31:27.920 --> 01:31:29.520 two months yet, so they're going to go half a 1500 01:31:29.600 --> 01:31:33.479 year with this. So the aid package comes as the 1501 01:31:33.600 --> 01:31:37.720 US China trade war has hit soybean farmers especially hard. 1502 01:31:37.760 --> 01:31:40.960 I would just say this the Trump trade war, China 1503 01:31:40.960 --> 01:31:43.399 had blocked all purchases of soybeans from the US. China 1504 01:31:43.439 --> 01:31:45.680 was the biggest buyer of US soybeans in twenty twenty four, 1505 01:31:46.359 --> 01:31:49.760 accounting for twelve and a half billion in sales. China 1506 01:31:49.760 --> 01:31:53.159 agreed to purchase twelve million metric tons the soybeans now 1507 01:31:53.199 --> 01:31:56.600 in the final two months of this year and twenty 1508 01:31:56.600 --> 01:32:00.279 five million metric tons and twenty twenty six twenty seven eight, 1509 01:32:00.960 --> 01:32:05.000 on par with levels before the trade war. But what 1510 01:32:05.239 --> 01:32:08.319 CBS does not say, I'm sorry, this is ABC not CBS. 1511 01:32:09.760 --> 01:32:13.199 At what price? You know? It was a double whammy 1512 01:32:13.279 --> 01:32:16.880 from Trump. Not only did he cut off their biggest customer, 1513 01:32:17.720 --> 01:32:21.680 but that created a glut of soybeans on the domestic 1514 01:32:21.720 --> 01:32:24.359 market and it took the price down. So the question 1515 01:32:24.479 --> 01:32:26.960 is that what price. Do they get this stuff that 1516 01:32:27.000 --> 01:32:30.800 actually matters. It's amazing they don't even think about that. 1517 01:32:31.479 --> 01:32:33.760 But what they're doing is even though it's abc, they're 1518 01:32:33.800 --> 01:32:36.560 just kind of whoever wrote this thing is just going 1519 01:32:36.560 --> 01:32:40.119 with the talking points of the Trump administration. So far, 1520 01:32:40.239 --> 01:32:42.760 China has purchased only two and a half million metric 1521 01:32:42.880 --> 01:32:46.159 tons of soybeans, not the twelve, so they got a 1522 01:32:46.199 --> 01:32:49.119 lot of catching up to do here. The administration's new 1523 01:32:49.159 --> 01:32:52.079 actions also come on the heels of the administration's twenty 1524 01:32:52.079 --> 01:32:55.279 billion dollar bailout of Argentina, which Scott Bessett said he 1525 01:32:55.359 --> 01:32:58.199 was going to make it forty in terms of helping 1526 01:32:58.760 --> 01:33:02.199 put together some private funds they moved that Many American 1527 01:33:02.199 --> 01:33:05.159 farmers and lawmakers on both sides the political aisle criticized 1528 01:33:05.640 --> 01:33:10.079 this fall. As China stopped buying all soybeans US farmers, 1529 01:33:10.479 --> 01:33:12.880 it purchased soybeans from Argentina instead, So the US was 1530 01:33:12.920 --> 01:33:17.279 giving a financial lifeline to Argentina, a country that directly 1531 01:33:17.319 --> 01:33:20.560 benefited from the trade war. American farmers said they felt 1532 01:33:20.640 --> 01:33:24.840 left behind, and at the time, Chuck Grassley and Iowa 1533 01:33:24.920 --> 01:33:29.479 said farmers are very upset about Argentina selling soybeans to 1534 01:33:29.560 --> 01:33:32.600 China right after the US bailed out. And there's still 1535 01:33:32.920 --> 01:33:37.359 zero US soybeans sold to China. And that was back 1536 01:33:37.399 --> 01:33:42.560 in September. And it's taking them this long to firm 1537 01:33:42.680 --> 01:33:45.199 up their promises. But still not to help the farmers. 1538 01:33:45.239 --> 01:33:48.600 Trumpet his first term, also took action to bail out 1539 01:33:48.640 --> 01:33:52.720 American farmers, except that he'd already bailed them in to 1540 01:33:52.800 --> 01:33:55.479 his ter regime. He'd already hurt them. This is like 1541 01:33:55.560 --> 01:33:58.920 somebody breaking your legs and then handing you, giving you 1542 01:33:58.960 --> 01:34:02.039 a wheelchair and boasting about the wheelchair they gave you. His 1543 01:34:02.119 --> 01:34:06.239 administration approved two packages in twenty eighteen nineteen, totally twenty 1544 01:34:06.239 --> 01:34:09.039 eight billion dollars for farmers impacted by his economic policies. 1545 01:34:09.079 --> 01:34:11.760 Many of them were saying, well, he nearly put us 1546 01:34:11.760 --> 01:34:15.239 out of business with these tariff policies. Now he's putting 1547 01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:19.039 us out of business with the COVID lockdown. So again, 1548 01:34:19.199 --> 01:34:25.800 the announcement was made yesterday. So meanwhile, the run up 1549 01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:28.239 in soybean futures over the past month over a resolution 1550 01:34:28.319 --> 01:34:32.760 with China, crop prices are still close to twenty twenty lows. 1551 01:34:33.479 --> 01:34:36.119 Now this is zero hedge. This ABC didn't even think 1552 01:34:36.119 --> 01:34:38.760 about the price aspect of it. That's the all important 1553 01:34:38.760 --> 01:34:41.359 thing you got. And you make a deal with China. 1554 01:34:42.159 --> 01:34:44.359 And let's say, you know, I don't have any idea 1555 01:34:44.399 --> 01:34:47.119 what soybeans cost or what quantity. That's all men. Let's 1556 01:34:47.119 --> 01:34:50.159 say they we'll call it a widget. You put them 1557 01:34:50.159 --> 01:34:52.239 in a widget. I don't know if it's a basket 1558 01:34:52.399 --> 01:34:55.800 or barrel or whatever, a bushel or whatever, but you 1559 01:34:55.880 --> 01:34:59.279 got a widget full of soybeans that goes for ten dollars. 1560 01:34:59.239 --> 01:35:01.920 And then after this, he wants to make a deal 1561 01:35:01.920 --> 01:35:03.920 and wants to show that he's getting them back up 1562 01:35:03.960 --> 01:35:06.560 buying soybeans, and they agree to it. So what did 1563 01:35:06.600 --> 01:35:08.159 he do to get them to a degree to it? 1564 01:35:08.199 --> 01:35:10.680 Did he say, well, now you can buy the same 1565 01:35:10.720 --> 01:35:13.600 quantity of stuff, but we'll sell you these We'll sell 1566 01:35:13.640 --> 01:35:18.720 you these soybeans at five dollars per widget full of 1567 01:35:18.840 --> 01:35:22.119 soy stuff. So again, they're taking advantage of the low 1568 01:35:22.119 --> 01:35:25.199 cost right now? Is that what they're doing? So as 1569 01:35:25.199 --> 01:35:29.199 they announced this, Trump is saying this wouldn't be possible, 1570 01:35:29.800 --> 01:35:34.199 This money would not be possible without tariffs. Here's the truth, folks, 1571 01:35:34.239 --> 01:35:38.079 it wouldn't be necessary without tariffs. He wouldn't have to 1572 01:35:38.119 --> 01:35:41.479 give them a bailout if he hadn't bailed them into 1573 01:35:41.520 --> 01:35:43.720 his Trump trade war. 1574 01:35:44.520 --> 01:35:46.880 You know, and these farmers that are suffering from the tariffs, well, 1575 01:35:46.920 --> 01:35:49.079 with help the tariffs, I wouldn't have had the money 1576 01:35:49.119 --> 01:35:53.720 to give them a piece. I've taxed these people to death, 1577 01:35:53.840 --> 01:35:56.359 and now I'll dole out a small amount back to 1578 01:35:56.399 --> 01:35:58.680 them that wouldn't be possible by taxing to death in 1579 01:35:58.680 --> 01:35:59.319 the first place. 1580 01:35:59.439 --> 01:36:02.000 That's right, And here's why I said. It's not going 1581 01:36:02.039 --> 01:36:04.880 to happen till twenty twenty six. This is CNN reporting now, 1582 01:36:04.960 --> 01:36:08.640 says Rollin said the money would be flowing by February 1583 01:36:08.680 --> 01:36:11.359 the twenty eighth, twenty twenty six, the very last day 1584 01:36:11.640 --> 01:36:14.199 of February. We're going to get the money flowing, so 1585 01:36:14.239 --> 01:36:19.319 it make the first payment three months now, and explain 1586 01:36:19.399 --> 01:36:21.359 that a billion dollars of the funding is being held 1587 01:36:21.399 --> 01:36:25.439 back to make sure all specialty crops are covered. She 1588 01:36:25.520 --> 01:36:29.199 created Trump for opening the markets through trade deals without 1589 01:36:29.239 --> 01:36:33.760 directly acknowledging how terrifts have impacted farmers. Again, you close 1590 01:36:33.840 --> 01:36:36.159 the markets, and now you open it. And so now 1591 01:36:36.159 --> 01:36:38.800 you pat yourself on the back for opening the market 1592 01:36:38.840 --> 01:36:41.960 that was opened before you closed it. All this is 1593 01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:45.119 based on a lie. And so what you've been able 1594 01:36:45.159 --> 01:36:47.880 to do is to open those markets up again and 1595 01:36:48.039 --> 01:36:49.840 move towards an era where our farmers are not so 1596 01:36:49.920 --> 01:36:54.319 reliant on government checks. Here's the bottom line. He was 1597 01:36:54.359 --> 01:36:58.039 just boasting about the fact that after he disrupted the 1598 01:36:58.159 --> 01:37:02.439 sale of the the market sale of soybeans at market 1599 01:37:02.439 --> 01:37:05.840 prices to China, after he messed with the market price, 1600 01:37:05.880 --> 01:37:07.920 after he closed it off and shut it to zero, 1601 01:37:08.479 --> 01:37:10.039 now he's going to open it back up, and they're 1602 01:37:10.079 --> 01:37:12.279 going to purchase it at levels that they were buying 1603 01:37:12.279 --> 01:37:16.960 before he started in this nonsense. Just amazing. Are you 1604 01:37:17.039 --> 01:37:19.680 tired of the winning? I'm tired of the whining about 1605 01:37:19.680 --> 01:37:22.000 all of this stuff and the fact that he is 1606 01:37:22.079 --> 01:37:25.920 lying to everybody about this. Some farmers have previously bailed 1607 01:37:25.920 --> 01:37:28.800 at the idea of aid. Mark Reid, a director for 1608 01:37:28.840 --> 01:37:33.720 the Illinois Soybean Association, said, farmers don't want free aid, 1609 01:37:34.640 --> 01:37:38.039 we want free trade. There you go, that's what they 1610 01:37:38.119 --> 01:37:40.920 had before he messed with it. Well, Reason says the 1611 01:37:40.920 --> 01:37:45.880 Trump tariffs have failed to reduce the trade deficits. How 1612 01:37:45.920 --> 01:37:49.479 should we assess whether the Trump tariffs have been effective 1613 01:37:49.600 --> 01:37:53.680 or successful? Well, it's an important question. Trump has outlined 1614 01:37:53.800 --> 01:37:57.960 overlapping and confusing and sometimes competing goals for the tariffs. 1615 01:37:58.520 --> 01:38:01.199 He has celebrated them as a sore of government revenue, 1616 01:38:01.199 --> 01:38:04.479 for example, but he's also claimed that they're meant as 1617 01:38:04.560 --> 01:38:09.000 a negotiating tactic. They can't be both tariffs used for 1618 01:38:09.079 --> 01:38:14.159 negotiation are meant to be removed once the negotiations are complete. 1619 01:38:14.800 --> 01:38:16.920 He's also said they don't mention it here, but he's 1620 01:38:16.960 --> 01:38:20.399 also said, we're going to use the tariffs to make 1621 01:38:20.439 --> 01:38:26.119 sure that manufacturing moves back to America and look at 1622 01:38:26.159 --> 01:38:28.079 all the windfall profit that we're going to make. Well again, 1623 01:38:28.079 --> 01:38:29.560 you can't have both of those. You're either going to 1624 01:38:29.640 --> 01:38:32.680 use it for negotiations and then take it off, or 1625 01:38:32.680 --> 01:38:35.319 you're going to use it to get businesses to come back. 1626 01:38:35.319 --> 01:38:37.319 If that's your goal, to get businesses to come back 1627 01:38:38.640 --> 01:38:42.680 and do manufacturing here domestically. But if they do manufacturing domestically, 1628 01:38:42.720 --> 01:38:46.359 then your teriffmen who goes away. So he's always putting 1629 01:38:46.359 --> 01:38:49.680 out these contradictory ideas and everybody grabs whatever they want. 1630 01:38:49.720 --> 01:38:51.720 They think, well, he's going to make so much money. 1631 01:38:51.760 --> 01:38:53.399 We're going to get rid of the income tax that's 1632 01:38:53.399 --> 01:38:56.680 floating around again as well, thanks to Trump, except that 1633 01:38:56.680 --> 01:38:58.119 he's talking about how he's going to make all these 1634 01:38:58.119 --> 01:39:04.439 different tax changes that he's gone permanent, and so that 1635 01:39:04.479 --> 01:39:06.640 you might want to think about what he's actually saying here. 1636 01:39:06.680 --> 01:39:09.159 There's also the fact is that I don't see the 1637 01:39:09.199 --> 01:39:13.399 government generating revenue as a win. No, there's no if 1638 01:39:13.760 --> 01:39:16.600 we had had a government that was actually, you know, 1639 01:39:16.840 --> 01:39:20.359 working on building infrastructure, even that I don't necessarily think 1640 01:39:20.399 --> 01:39:22.399 that's the government's place to do that, but you could 1641 01:39:22.399 --> 01:39:25.640 at least make that sound good, like, oh, we're gonna 1642 01:39:25.640 --> 01:39:28.199 build better roads, we're gonna build nicer parks, we're gonna. 1643 01:39:27.960 --> 01:39:30.439 Build really cool friends. 1644 01:39:30.720 --> 01:39:32.439 Instead, it's going to go to his friends, and it's 1645 01:39:32.439 --> 01:39:35.079 going to go into the military industrial complex and the. 1646 01:39:35.000 --> 01:39:39.439 Police stayed industrial complex and the surveillance state industrial complex. 1647 01:39:39.680 --> 01:39:41.840 The government is not going to do anything that will 1648 01:39:41.880 --> 01:39:45.640 benefit the common citizen with it, and again, you know, 1649 01:39:45.760 --> 01:39:47.479 it's probably it's not their place to do that, I 1650 01:39:47.479 --> 01:39:50.199 don't think, but at least then you would be getting 1651 01:39:50.279 --> 01:39:51.600 some benefit, some use. 1652 01:39:51.800 --> 01:39:54.159 There's no plan benefit for it, and we don't want 1653 01:39:54.159 --> 01:39:56.840 to see the government taking more and more control of 1654 01:39:56.880 --> 01:40:00.279 the economy. But Trump does Trump terrafs or solution to 1655 01:40:00.279 --> 01:40:02.520 every problem in the trade war is more about the 1656 01:40:02.640 --> 01:40:07.000 vibes than it is about economics. But when Representative Brendan 1657 01:40:07.000 --> 01:40:14.239 Boyle Democrat pressed jameson Greer, the US trade representative said, 1658 01:40:14.319 --> 01:40:19.760 what would success look like? Greer gave two clear metrics. So, 1659 01:40:19.920 --> 01:40:22.479 first of all, the trade deficit needs to go in 1660 01:40:22.520 --> 01:40:26.479 the right direction, in other words, down, and manufacturing as 1661 01:40:26.520 --> 01:40:29.600 a share of gross domestic product needs to go in 1662 01:40:29.680 --> 01:40:33.239 the right direction, needs to go up. So if it's 1663 01:40:33.279 --> 01:40:36.399 going to be a success, as they pinned him down, 1664 01:40:36.399 --> 01:40:38.479 they said, okay, well, Trump, let's talk about revenue. What 1665 01:40:39.199 --> 01:40:42.760 is your view as the trade representative for all this stuff? 1666 01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:44.560 What are you trying to see happen? Well, I want 1667 01:40:44.600 --> 01:40:46.520 to see the trade deficit go down and I want 1668 01:40:46.520 --> 01:40:48.520 to see a manufacturing go up. Well, what has happened 1669 01:40:49.279 --> 01:40:51.880 more than six months later. Neither goal is any closer 1670 01:40:51.920 --> 01:40:54.840 to being achieved. Neither of them seems likely to be 1671 01:40:54.920 --> 01:40:58.079 completed over the long term by an economic policy rooted 1672 01:40:58.279 --> 01:41:01.720 in barriers to trade. Trump has been obsessed with the 1673 01:41:01.720 --> 01:41:06.600 trade deficit for years and so, but he doesn't really 1674 01:41:06.640 --> 01:41:11.359 care if he even understands the budget deficit, they point out, 1675 01:41:11.439 --> 01:41:14.560 which is the difference between the revenue they bring in 1676 01:41:14.680 --> 01:41:18.079 what they spend. That is far more important than the 1677 01:41:18.119 --> 01:41:21.000 trade deficit. But he's not going to put his own 1678 01:41:21.039 --> 01:41:25.199 house in order. From January through July, America's trade deficit 1679 01:41:25.399 --> 01:41:28.680 was eight hundred and forty billion dollars. It was twenty 1680 01:41:28.760 --> 01:41:35.079 three percent larger than the same months in twenty twenty four. Okay, 1681 01:41:35.159 --> 01:41:37.560 so her state of goal is we want to see 1682 01:41:37.560 --> 01:41:40.319 the trade deficit go down to find as we want 1683 01:41:40.359 --> 01:41:42.720 to sell more to other people than they're selling to us. 1684 01:41:43.840 --> 01:41:46.439 Except it increased by twenty three percent, even with all 1685 01:41:46.600 --> 01:41:51.920 of Trump's manipulation here. It also reflects now a well 1686 01:41:52.039 --> 01:41:57.399 established fact that tariffs do not reduce trade deficits. During 1687 01:41:57.439 --> 01:42:01.640 his first term, Trump raised various tariffs, but the country's 1688 01:42:01.840 --> 01:42:05.279 trade deficit climbed from about four hundred and eighty one 1689 01:42:05.319 --> 01:42:09.119 billion in twenty sixteen to six hundred and seventy nine 1690 01:42:09.159 --> 01:42:13.359 billion in twenty twenty. So over four years it goes up, 1691 01:42:13.600 --> 01:42:17.680 let's say, maybe about fifty percent, right, But under this 1692 01:42:17.720 --> 01:42:21.920 new regime of Trump tariff policy, it has gone up 1693 01:42:21.920 --> 01:42:26.880 twenty three percent. The trade deficit has increased twenty three percent. 1694 01:42:27.960 --> 01:42:33.000 So by their metric, and of course no matter whether 1695 01:42:33.039 --> 01:42:37.880 Trump has these contradictory explanations at all, He is definitely 1696 01:42:38.199 --> 01:42:40.479 wanting to see the trade deficit go down, but it 1697 01:42:40.520 --> 01:42:43.960 went up twenty three percent. Tariffs are no better as 1698 01:42:44.000 --> 01:42:47.880 a tool for boosting manufacturing. Rather than being helped. The 1699 01:42:47.880 --> 01:42:52.000 manufacturing sector is being crushed by tariffs, increasing the cost 1700 01:42:52.079 --> 01:42:55.760 of raw materials and of intermediate goods. And it's not 1701 01:42:55.800 --> 01:43:00.479 just manufacturing, it's all businesses, whether people are in retail 1702 01:43:00.600 --> 01:43:03.159 or anything else. They can't tell what their costs are 1703 01:43:03.159 --> 01:43:06.479 going to be because who knows. If Trump is going 1704 01:43:06.520 --> 01:43:09.239 to have something gives him indigestion, and he's going to 1705 01:43:09.279 --> 01:43:12.560 try to punish the country that he bought that food from. 1706 01:43:12.880 --> 01:43:15.239 You know, It's just it's that petty. If he has 1707 01:43:15.279 --> 01:43:17.600 an argument with somebody who is a political leader in 1708 01:43:17.640 --> 01:43:21.640 another country, he slaps them with tariffs. So during a 1709 01:43:21.680 --> 01:43:25.319 speech in July, the Trade Representative Greer added a third 1710 01:43:25.399 --> 01:43:32.880 goal for the administration's tariff policies, increasing real median household income. Well, 1711 01:43:33.439 --> 01:43:35.600 tariffs are making it more difficult for households to make 1712 01:43:35.680 --> 01:43:38.439 ends meet. In October, study from the Harvard Business School 1713 01:43:38.960 --> 01:43:42.079 shows that retail prices had declined throughout twenty twenty four 1714 01:43:42.560 --> 01:43:45.600 in early twenty twenty five, and then began rising in 1715 01:43:45.640 --> 01:43:51.279 April after Trump's tariffs were announced. The Trump administration's tariff 1716 01:43:51.319 --> 01:43:57.880 policies misunderstand the role of trade and productive, flourishing economies. 1717 01:43:58.359 --> 01:44:01.199 The administration has set the wrong goal and then has 1718 01:44:01.199 --> 01:44:05.840 made poorly, has made policy choices that are unlikely to 1719 01:44:06.279 --> 01:44:11.119 achieve those goals. Again, it's because people like Peter Navarro. 1720 01:44:11.920 --> 01:44:15.800 This is the dumb as a sack of bricks policy. 1721 01:44:14.920 --> 01:44:19.439 And so what does this look like? Well, China has 1722 01:44:19.479 --> 01:44:26.279 had a record trade surplus. China's trade surplus has topped 1723 01:44:26.319 --> 01:44:31.399 a trillion dollars for the first time. Despite Trump's terrorists, 1724 01:44:32.520 --> 01:44:37.279 china exports have rebounded in November after an unexpected contraction 1725 01:44:37.359 --> 01:44:40.640 the previous month, pushing its trade surplus passed a trillion 1726 01:44:40.680 --> 01:44:43.920 dollars for the first time ever, an all time high. 1727 01:44:44.680 --> 01:44:49.760 Exports listen to this climbed from six percent a year earlier, 1728 01:44:50.520 --> 01:44:55.760 while imports rose just under two percent. Meanwhile, shipments to 1729 01:44:55.800 --> 01:45:00.359 the United States dropped nearly twenty nine percent year of year. 1730 01:45:01.039 --> 01:45:03.479 So they've been able to replace this with other markets 1731 01:45:03.680 --> 01:45:06.880 and they are thriving. If this is part of his policy, again, 1732 01:45:06.960 --> 01:45:09.640 that is another thing he's thrown in there, the economic 1733 01:45:09.800 --> 01:45:12.560 competition with China. It's a failure with that as well. 1734 01:45:12.920 --> 01:45:15.399 So it's been a failure in terms of the trade deficit. 1735 01:45:15.880 --> 01:45:18.880 It's been a failure in terms of economic competition with China. 1736 01:45:19.239 --> 01:45:22.399 It's been a failure in terms of manufacturing. It's been 1737 01:45:22.439 --> 01:45:27.239 a failure in terms of keeping costs down. It's a failure. 1738 01:45:29.640 --> 01:45:32.439 The nearly trillion dollar trade surplus for the first eleven 1739 01:45:32.479 --> 01:45:35.239 months of this year is a record high. It's likely 1740 01:45:35.319 --> 01:45:38.840 that November exports have yet to fully reflect the tariff cut, 1741 01:45:39.159 --> 01:45:42.279 which should feed through in the coming months. But you know, hey, 1742 01:45:43.319 --> 01:45:47.359 they're making it up in other countries. You, however, may 1743 01:45:47.520 --> 01:45:50.119 pay a lot more. You know, they're expecting that toys 1744 01:45:50.119 --> 01:45:52.039 will go up quite a bit because a lot of 1745 01:45:52.039 --> 01:45:55.640 toys are manufactured in China. But as Trump said before, 1746 01:45:55.680 --> 01:45:58.119 hey so your kids only got like, you know, one 1747 01:45:58.199 --> 01:46:02.800 dollar instead of five dollars. YEA, too bad. I wonder 1748 01:46:02.800 --> 01:46:07.600 how many dolls Ivanka had, whichever one it is to 1749 01:46:07.640 --> 01:46:10.800 get the two of them mixed up. Evana was the mother, right, 1750 01:46:10.880 --> 01:46:13.000 and Ivanka is the daughter. 1751 01:46:13.159 --> 01:46:14.279 Ye Alca is the daughter. 1752 01:46:14.359 --> 01:46:16.880 I imagine she had a lot of dolls. But Trump 1753 01:46:16.880 --> 01:46:18.960 doesn't really care about that, doesn't care if you can 1754 01:46:19.039 --> 01:46:21.560 afford toys or not. It's kind of like that toy 1755 01:46:21.600 --> 01:46:24.760 market we went to in China where the TSA then 1756 01:46:24.760 --> 01:46:27.800 confiscate all the toys that we'd bought to keep our 1757 01:46:27.880 --> 01:46:30.600 daughter busy while we came back. So China's exports grow 1758 01:46:30.680 --> 01:46:37.880 six percent and US shipments dropped twenty nine percent. Seems 1759 01:46:37.880 --> 01:46:40.800 like things are going in exactly the opposite direction that 1760 01:46:40.880 --> 01:46:44.000 Trump wanted to go. By the way, manufacturing is dropping 1761 01:46:44.119 --> 01:46:47.520 as well, and they're struggling. As I said before, just 1762 01:46:47.600 --> 01:46:52.640 like retailers and importers, every business, farmers, everybody is struggling 1763 01:46:53.279 --> 01:46:57.279 with the chaos that Trump has brought to the economy. 1764 01:46:58.199 --> 01:47:02.039 It's not about terraffs or income income tax. It's about 1765 01:47:02.119 --> 01:47:09.079 chaos versus stability. Chaos is hampering everyone in the US economy. 1766 01:47:09.239 --> 01:47:12.000 It is the elephant in the room. And I'm not 1767 01:47:12.039 --> 01:47:15.840 talking about Republicans. We're gonna take a quick break. You 1768 01:47:15.840 --> 01:47:17.359 want to get those comments there. 1769 01:47:17.479 --> 01:47:21.439 Yes, I don't know if that other one is right, Lanceome, 1770 01:47:21.560 --> 01:47:24.680 but guard Goldsmith says, by the way, the Trump Executive 1771 01:47:24.760 --> 01:47:28.600 Order REAI appears to claim authority by implying that state 1772 01:47:28.640 --> 01:47:32.760 statutes on AI interfere with interstate commerce. Yet Trump's executive 1773 01:47:32.840 --> 01:47:35.000 order breaches separation of powers. 1774 01:47:35.199 --> 01:47:37.439 Yeah, breaches a tenth Amendment. And that's the thing. You know, 1775 01:47:37.840 --> 01:47:40.600 when you look at the way they've sold the unconstitutional 1776 01:47:40.640 --> 01:47:43.520 illegal warned drugs. How did they do it with the 1777 01:47:43.560 --> 01:47:47.479 Commerce Act claiming that that allowed them to prohibit drugs? 1778 01:47:47.920 --> 01:47:51.039 Why didn't anybody think about that when they prohibited alcohol. 1779 01:47:51.039 --> 01:47:53.560 It's funny, you know, those people, I don't know where 1780 01:47:53.560 --> 01:47:56.600 they just stupid and they couldn't read that in the Constitution, 1781 01:47:56.840 --> 01:47:59.359 or maybe they had respect for the Constitution that we 1782 01:47:59.399 --> 01:48:02.840 don't have. I think that's what it was. Well, we're 1783 01:48:02.840 --> 01:48:05.439 gonna take a quick break and we will be right back. 1784 01:48:05.840 --> 01:49:45.600 Stay with us, and now the David Knight Show.

This is a college student who 1844 01:52:51.439 --> 01:52:55.239 got a zero on her assignment simply because she quoted 1845 01:52:55.279 --> 01:52:59.720 the Bible and a gender assignment article that she's supposed 1846 01:52:59.760 --> 01:53:03.319 to reave you. Now, this is really about a lot 1847 01:53:03.359 --> 01:53:06.039 of different issues. It's about free speech, free exercise, religion. 1848 01:53:06.079 --> 01:53:09.359 It's about the fact that the LGBT people see what 1849 01:53:09.399 --> 01:53:12.439 they're doing as a religion, as well as what is 1850 01:53:12.479 --> 01:53:16.279 happening in schools and the worthlessness of college degrees, I 1851 01:53:16.319 --> 01:53:18.760 would say as well. So, this is a college student 1852 01:53:18.760 --> 01:53:24.199 in Oklahoma gets a failing grade because she laid out 1853 01:53:24.399 --> 01:53:28.119 a biblical case for gender unfortunately for her, and she 1854 01:53:28.159 --> 01:53:31.039 didn't know it at the time, but the teaching assistant 1855 01:53:31.039 --> 01:53:33.920 who is going to be doing the grading is a trainy. 1856 01:53:35.640 --> 01:53:38.399 She didn't know that. She turned in the paper and 1857 01:53:38.439 --> 01:53:43.039 she didn't attack transgender. She made the case for the 1858 01:53:43.079 --> 01:53:46.119 biblical role of men and women. So it was not 1859 01:53:46.199 --> 01:53:48.600 a negative hit piece. There's nothing hateful about it. 1860 01:53:48.720 --> 01:53:52.000 Well, these people are so completely diluted out to lunch 1861 01:53:52.640 --> 01:53:57.359 that simply showing them reality is painful to them. 1862 01:53:57.640 --> 01:54:00.800 It breaks their delusion. 1863 01:54:01.159 --> 01:54:04.159 Yes, and it was an opinion based piece. 1864 01:54:04.159 --> 01:54:06.439 What lands like I mentioned yesterday with the story of 1865 01:54:06.840 --> 01:54:08.680 the person, and I believe it was the UK that 1866 01:54:09.319 --> 01:54:12.439 got ten days in prison and a fine for mentioning 1867 01:54:12.479 --> 01:54:14.640 that men and women have different skeletons. 1868 01:54:14.800 --> 01:54:18.279 Yeah, that's right. So this was an opinion based piece. 1869 01:54:18.319 --> 01:54:20.199 And she said to point out say anywhere that I 1870 01:54:20.239 --> 01:54:22.319 needed evidence. It didnt say anywhere that I needed evidence 1871 01:54:22.359 --> 01:54:26.680 from my opinion. His response was no, that was the 1872 01:54:26.720 --> 01:54:32.720 grade that you deserved, a zero, she said. In terms 1873 01:54:32.880 --> 01:54:36.239 of her essay, here's some excerpts from it, she said, 1874 01:54:36.279 --> 01:54:38.399 this article was very thought provoking, caused me to thoroughly 1875 01:54:38.439 --> 01:54:40.359 evaluate the idea of gender the role that it plays 1876 01:54:40.359 --> 01:54:44.800 in our society. The article discussed peers using teasing as 1877 01:54:44.840 --> 01:54:49.279 a way to enforce gender norms. I don't look at 1878 01:54:49.279 --> 01:54:52.359 this necessarily as a problem. God made male and female 1879 01:54:52.439 --> 01:54:55.600 and made us differently from each other on purpose and 1880 01:54:55.680 --> 01:54:58.479 for a purpose. God is very intentional with what he 1881 01:54:58.560 --> 01:55:01.760 makes I believe trying to change that would only do 1882 01:55:01.840 --> 01:55:05.119 more harm. Gender roles and tendencies should not be considered 1883 01:55:05.119 --> 01:55:09.000 to be stereotypes. Women naturally want to do womanly things 1884 01:55:09.000 --> 01:55:12.560 because God created us with those womanly desires in our hearts. 1885 01:55:13.119 --> 01:55:15.479 But of course we can propagandize those out, can't we. 1886 01:55:16.600 --> 01:55:20.039 The same goes for men. God created men in the 1887 01:55:20.039 --> 01:55:22.840 image of his courage and strength. He created women in 1888 01:55:22.880 --> 01:55:25.920 the image of his beauty. He intentionally created women differently 1889 01:55:25.920 --> 01:55:28.039 than men, and we should live our lives with that 1890 01:55:28.119 --> 01:55:30.760 in mind. It's frustrating to me when I read articles 1891 01:55:30.800 --> 01:55:33.800 like this and discussion posts for my classmates of so 1892 01:55:33.880 --> 01:55:37.359 many people trying to conform to the same mundane opinion 1893 01:55:38.000 --> 01:55:41.680 so that they don't step on anybody's toes. I think 1894 01:55:41.760 --> 01:55:44.960 that is cowardly and an insincere way to live. It 1895 01:55:45.000 --> 01:55:47.000 is important to me to use the freedom of speech 1896 01:55:47.039 --> 01:55:49.600 we have been given in this country, and I personally 1897 01:55:49.640 --> 01:55:53.720 believe that eliminating gender in our society would be detrimental, 1898 01:55:53.880 --> 01:55:57.199 as it pulls us further from God's original plan for humans. 1899 01:55:57.800 --> 01:56:00.319 In Genesis, God says that it's not good for man 1900 01:56:00.359 --> 01:56:03.039 to be alone, so he created a helper for man, 1901 01:56:03.079 --> 01:56:06.319 which is woman. Many people assume the word helper in 1902 01:56:06.319 --> 01:56:10.119 this context to be condescending and offensive to women. However, 1903 01:56:10.479 --> 01:56:14.920 the original word in Hebrew is easer kannegdo, and that 1904 01:56:14.960 --> 01:56:21.000 directly translates to helper equal to Additionally, God describes himself 1905 01:56:21.880 --> 01:56:26.039 in the Bible using that same term either cannegdo or helper, 1906 01:56:26.560 --> 01:56:29.640 and he describes his Holy Spirit as our helper as well. 1907 01:56:30.319 --> 01:56:32.520 This shows the importance that God places on the role 1908 01:56:32.640 --> 01:56:35.279 of the helper. God does not view women as less 1909 01:56:35.279 --> 01:56:38.479 significant than men. He created us with such intentionality and care, 1910 01:56:38.520 --> 01:56:40.760 and he made women in his image of being a 1911 01:56:40.880 --> 01:56:44.760 helper and in the image of his beauty. If leaning 1912 01:56:44.800 --> 01:56:47.479 into that role means that I'm following gender stereotypes, then 1913 01:56:47.479 --> 01:56:49.760 I am happy to be following a stereotype that aligns 1914 01:56:49.760 --> 01:56:52.239 with the gifts and the abilities that God gives me 1915 01:56:52.279 --> 01:56:54.439 as a woman. I do not think that men and 1916 01:56:54.439 --> 01:56:56.720 women are pressure to be more masculine or feminine. I 1917 01:56:56.760 --> 01:57:00.119 strongly disagree with the idea from the article that encouraging 1918 01:57:00.159 --> 01:57:06.840 acceptance of diverse gender expressions can improve student's confidence. Society 1919 01:57:06.840 --> 01:57:09.079 pushing the lie that there are multiple genders and everyone 1920 01:57:09.079 --> 01:57:12.520 should be whatever they want to be is demonic and 1921 01:57:12.560 --> 01:57:15.680 severely harms American youth. I do not want kids to 1922 01:57:15.720 --> 01:57:18.319 be teased or bullied in school. However, pushing the lie 1923 01:57:18.439 --> 01:57:21.720 that everyone has their own truth and everyone can do 1924 01:57:21.800 --> 01:57:23.880 whatever they want and be whoever they want is not 1925 01:57:23.960 --> 01:57:27.960 biblical whatsoever. Reading articles like this encourages me to one 1926 01:57:28.039 --> 01:57:30.600 day raise my children knowing that they have a heavenly 1927 01:57:30.640 --> 01:57:34.479 Father who loves them and cherishes them deeply, and that 1928 01:57:34.560 --> 01:57:38.399 having their identity firmly rooted and who He is will 1929 01:57:38.399 --> 01:57:40.960 give them the satisfaction and acceptance that the world can 1930 01:57:41.000 --> 01:57:43.680 never provide for them. My prayer for the world, and 1931 01:57:43.720 --> 01:57:46.119 specifically for American society and youth, is that they would 1932 01:57:46.159 --> 01:57:50.000 not believe the lies being spread by Satan that make 1933 01:57:50.079 --> 01:57:52.680 them believe they're better off with another gender than what 1934 01:57:52.840 --> 01:57:56.119 God has made them. I pray that they feel God's 1935 01:57:56.119 --> 01:58:00.039 love and acceptance as who He originally created them to be. 1936 01:58:00.279 --> 01:58:03.399 She got a zero for that from the transgender She 1937 01:58:03.880 --> 01:58:07.119 complained to the university. They did nothing. She complained to 1938 01:58:07.119 --> 01:58:11.079 the governor's office and other politicians, and the response was 1939 01:58:11.159 --> 01:58:15.159 that the university gave him a paid vacation, paid leave, 1940 01:58:17.000 --> 01:58:17.800 but they said. 1941 01:58:17.600 --> 01:58:18.279 That happened to me. 1942 01:58:18.319 --> 01:58:21.199 All I can say is my next paper would would 1943 01:58:21.199 --> 01:58:21.760 be something. 1944 01:58:22.840 --> 01:58:25.119 He can't grade her papers anymore, but he gets a 1945 01:58:25.159 --> 01:58:30.560 paid vacation, paid leave. Her essay was posted on social media. However, 1946 01:58:30.960 --> 01:58:35.840 it's been viewed by people over fifteen million times. So 1947 01:58:36.079 --> 01:58:38.399 her bottom line is she said, we must not be 1948 01:58:38.439 --> 01:58:42.199 intimidated to run away from our principles what we believe 1949 01:58:42.239 --> 01:58:45.479 to be true. We have the freedom to speak and 1950 01:58:45.600 --> 01:58:49.359 to believe what we wish. State senators said, it's about 1951 01:58:49.359 --> 01:58:53.439 a state funded, taxpayer funded institution that's allowing their faculty 1952 01:58:53.439 --> 01:58:55.760 members to abridge or to impede a student's right to 1953 01:58:55.800 --> 01:58:59.319 express their faith. And so she's been able to speak 1954 01:58:59.479 --> 01:59:02.439 many different places as well. Well, I've got more than 1955 01:59:02.439 --> 01:59:04.079 I wanted to get into. But we are at a 1956 01:59:04.119 --> 01:59:06.520 time and we have a guest that is ready to 1957 01:59:06.640 --> 01:59:11.039 join us, and just real briefly, the guest we have 1958 01:59:11.119 --> 01:59:16.520 joining us is a doctor and his name is Richard Restak, MD. 1959 01:59:17.640 --> 01:59:21.600 He has written over twenty five books and he's been 1960 01:59:21.680 --> 01:59:24.000 on the bestseller's list, and the book that we're going 1961 01:59:24.039 --> 01:59:29.079 to be discussing today, especially basically is neuroscience. And the 1962 01:59:29.119 --> 01:59:31.119 book that we're going to be discussing today is the 1963 01:59:31.239 --> 01:59:36.159 twenty first century Brain. Subtitle says how our brains are 1964 01:59:36.279 --> 01:59:41.359 changing in response to the challenges by social networks, AI, 1965 01:59:41.479 --> 01:59:43.880 climate change, and stress. So we're going to talk about 1966 01:59:43.920 --> 01:59:46.399 those things. And I've got a lot of questions that 1967 01:59:46.439 --> 01:59:48.279 I would like to ask him about that as well. 1968 01:59:48.279 --> 01:59:49.840 So I think it's going to be an interesting interview. 1969 01:59:50.520 --> 01:59:53.119 Stay with us, folks, We will be right back. 1970 02:00:28.520 --> 02:00:28.680 King. 1971 02:02:22.920 --> 02:02:25.319 You're listening to the David Knight Show. 1972 02:02:29.600 --> 02:02:33.399 Here news now at apsradionews dot com or get the 1973 02:02:33.479 --> 02:02:36.399 APS Radio app and never miss another story. 1974 02:02:39.399 --> 02:02:43.359 All right, And joining us now is doctor Richard Restak, MD, 1975 02:02:43.880 --> 02:02:46.840 and he is a neuroscientist as well, and he has 1976 02:02:46.880 --> 02:02:50.960 written a lot of books on the brain, and now 1977 02:02:51.000 --> 02:02:54.079 this is one kind of the nexus of our brain 1978 02:02:54.319 --> 02:02:57.279 and artificial intelligence. So I wanted to get him on 1979 02:02:57.359 --> 02:03:00.039 because we, as you know, we talk about AI and 1980 02:03:00.079 --> 02:03:02.760 its impact on society quite a bit. Thank you for 1981 02:03:02.840 --> 02:03:03.920 joining us, doctor Restick. 1982 02:03:05.359 --> 02:03:06.399 Well, I'm happy to be here. 1983 02:03:06.399 --> 02:03:06.680 Thank you. 1984 02:03:06.760 --> 02:03:07.000 David. 1985 02:03:07.479 --> 02:03:10.680 You've written so many books and best selling author and 1986 02:03:10.720 --> 02:03:12.920 of course people can bind this on Amazon. You've written 1987 02:03:12.920 --> 02:03:16.000 so many books. What is different about the brain? What 1988 02:03:16.119 --> 02:03:19.560 is different about this one? And why did you write this? Book. 1989 02:03:20.279 --> 02:03:25.560 I wrote this book to announce and to discuss the 1990 02:03:25.640 --> 02:03:29.199 dangers that are lurking and so to speak, in the 1991 02:03:29.199 --> 02:03:32.760 twenty first century and are unique to the going first century, 1992 02:03:33.000 --> 02:03:35.319 but are having an effect on the brain and a 1993 02:03:35.399 --> 02:03:39.479 negative one, so that we really are imperiled by eight 1994 02:03:39.600 --> 02:03:43.720 different factors, one of which is the global warming. 1995 02:03:43.880 --> 02:03:44.680 We have new. 1996 02:03:46.279 --> 02:03:49.319 Diseases that are present in the twenty first century that 1997 02:03:49.399 --> 02:03:54.199 are increasing, starting with COVID and moving forward. We have 1998 02:03:54.319 --> 02:03:59.439 problems to course with the global warming, which we'll talk 1999 02:03:59.439 --> 02:04:02.319 about more detail. And then the Internet, the effect of 2000 02:04:02.359 --> 02:04:07.439 the Internet, the effect of AI memory, the alteration, the 2001 02:04:07.479 --> 02:04:11.520 attempt to alter memory, almost to alter our memories. 2002 02:04:11.119 --> 02:04:12.359 Of what the past is like. 2003 02:04:12.560 --> 02:04:17.119 This is an ongoing enterprise by various governments of the. 2004 02:04:17.079 --> 02:04:18.880 World, including our own. 2005 02:04:19.279 --> 02:04:24.520 We also have surveillance, the seventh a surveillance becoming increasingly 2006 02:04:24.560 --> 02:04:30.000 a surveillance society. It's almost impossible to not be revealing 2007 02:04:30.600 --> 02:04:35.399 things about yourself because there's surveillance cameras everywhere. I can 2008 02:04:35.439 --> 02:04:38.199 give you several examples, not just in my own personal life. 2009 02:04:38.520 --> 02:04:42.439 And then finally, the eighth one is anxiety. All of 2010 02:04:42.479 --> 02:04:46.720 these things are creating what I call an existential anxiety. 2011 02:04:47.319 --> 02:04:52.199 People are being given information, but it's being molded according 2012 02:04:52.279 --> 02:04:56.279 to the thoughts and the inclinations of people in power. 2013 02:04:56.880 --> 02:05:00.800 For instance, let's take today's right out of Today's York Times. 2014 02:05:01.159 --> 02:05:05.600 On page a seven, there's an article called the air 2015 02:05:05.680 --> 02:05:09.479 in New Delhi is life threatening, and it tells the 2016 02:05:09.520 --> 02:05:14.479 tale of the New York Times reporters who have spread 2017 02:05:14.479 --> 02:05:18.319 themselves throughout New Delhi from six am until late in 2018 02:05:18.359 --> 02:05:23.000 the evening of a certain day recently, and they measured 2019 02:05:23.039 --> 02:05:26.960 the particulate matter in the air and it was anywhere 2020 02:05:27.039 --> 02:05:31.840 from ten times to thirty times as great as would 2021 02:05:31.920 --> 02:05:34.319 be considered minimally normal. 2022 02:05:35.199 --> 02:05:36.279 Now, on top of. 2023 02:05:36.199 --> 02:05:40.680 That, you have the statement that they state that the 2024 02:05:40.800 --> 02:05:45.239 government is actually trying to hide this kind of insight 2025 02:05:46.039 --> 02:05:49.800 to the populace by spraying water. 2026 02:05:49.720 --> 02:05:50.720 And other things like that. 2027 02:05:50.800 --> 02:05:54.840 It says that they're doing this around the measuring stations. 2028 02:05:55.319 --> 02:06:00.000 They're also losing data from measuring stations during the worst 2029 02:06:00.119 --> 02:06:05.760 ealths pollution. So there you have the molding of the facts, 2030 02:06:06.319 --> 02:06:10.159 either denying them all together or trying to improve them 2031 02:06:10.199 --> 02:06:12.399 so that people say, oh, well, they measured it down 2032 02:06:12.479 --> 02:06:14.680 as such and such a measuring state, and it was 2033 02:06:14.760 --> 02:06:16.920 really not a lot of high of course, they were 2034 02:06:17.039 --> 02:06:20.039 spreading water and other things to try to reduce this. 2035 02:06:21.199 --> 02:06:24.279 So we've got a capitalist society here in the United 2036 02:06:24.279 --> 02:06:31.239 States which has invested interest in pushing forward certain scientific 2037 02:06:31.319 --> 02:06:34.760 points of view. So science is being put in the 2038 02:06:34.800 --> 02:06:38.760 back seat. And as politicians and other people, all of 2039 02:06:38.760 --> 02:06:44.279 whom share one thing, capitalistic enterprises in which they're part of, 2040 02:06:44.600 --> 02:06:47.159 for which they are advancing. 2041 02:06:48.239 --> 02:06:51.079 And a kind of crony capitalism where they can get 2042 02:06:51.720 --> 02:06:56.079 protection and subsidies as well. And the control is being 2043 02:06:56.079 --> 02:06:58.279 taken away from us because, as I was just reporting 2044 02:06:58.319 --> 02:07:02.039 earlier today, working very hard to make sure that state 2045 02:07:02.279 --> 02:07:07.239 and local governments can't enact any control on artificial intelligence. 2046 02:07:07.239 --> 02:07:10.159 And they came up in the context of talking about 2047 02:07:10.199 --> 02:07:15.479 how the manufacturers of tasers also big manufacturers of police 2048 02:07:15.479 --> 02:07:18.399 body camps, how they want to wed that to artificial intelligence. 2049 02:07:19.119 --> 02:07:20.800 And the question is, you know, what could possibly go 2050 02:07:20.800 --> 02:07:24.079 wrong with that? If they identify you, they misidentify you 2051 02:07:24.159 --> 02:07:27.800 as a dangerous criminal and warn the police about how 2052 02:07:27.880 --> 02:07:30.119 dangerous you are, they could get people killed. 2053 02:07:31.439 --> 02:07:35.399 Well, not only that, but all these efforts set up 2054 02:07:35.800 --> 02:07:40.399 a sense of anxiety, yes and fear. Let me tell 2055 02:07:40.439 --> 02:07:43.760 you what happened to me one morning, called a cab 2056 02:07:43.880 --> 02:07:47.279 to go to medical appointment, and we've started going down 2057 02:07:47.279 --> 02:07:49.520 the road. I said to the driver, you know you're 2058 02:07:49.520 --> 02:07:53.119 not going the most efficient or the quickest way. He said, 2059 02:07:53.159 --> 02:07:55.039 I know that, he said, but I don't want to 2060 02:07:55.079 --> 02:07:58.560 go that way because they're speed cameras. I said, well, 2061 02:07:58.600 --> 02:08:01.520 you know you're driving very soon and you're not speeding, 2062 02:08:01.600 --> 02:08:05.279 and I'm in no hurry, So what's the problem. He said, Well, 2063 02:08:05.319 --> 02:08:08.239 they take pictures of everybody that goes by those cameras 2064 02:08:08.560 --> 02:08:10.680 because they want to see who's in those photos in 2065 02:08:10.760 --> 02:08:14.079 those cars. So I asked them to give me a 2066 02:08:14.119 --> 02:08:16.399 reference for that, and he got set of didn't say 2067 02:08:16.399 --> 02:08:19.119 anything else for the rest of the trip. So when 2068 02:08:19.119 --> 02:08:21.119 I got down to the medical building, I got in 2069 02:08:21.159 --> 02:08:25.159 the elevator and said, in this facility there is surveillance, 2070 02:08:25.520 --> 02:08:28.520 both obvious and hidden. 2071 02:08:30.840 --> 02:08:35.439 In this is one morning. 2072 02:08:36.000 --> 02:08:38.520 And then when I got up to sign in, I 2073 02:08:38.920 --> 02:08:42.560 signed the board with an electronic ben and I didn't 2074 02:08:42.560 --> 02:08:45.359 see you go no signature, So I said, well it 2075 02:08:45.399 --> 02:08:48.159 didn't take. It took, but we don't know it to 2076 02:08:48.199 --> 02:08:50.560 go on the screen so it could be seen. I said, 2077 02:08:50.600 --> 02:08:53.079 why is that? Said, well, somebody who haunts you might 2078 02:08:53.159 --> 02:08:56.000 see the thing and then remembered and use your for 2079 02:08:56.520 --> 02:09:01.000 your signature to forward something somewhere. Well, first of all, 2080 02:09:01.039 --> 02:09:03.840 there was a sign that said stand ten feet back, 2081 02:09:04.359 --> 02:09:07.439 and secondly, there's nobody else behind me. So there's three 2082 02:09:07.479 --> 02:09:11.680 examples just drawing it random that we're becoming an increasingly 2083 02:09:11.720 --> 02:09:16.000 surveilled society, which is creating a sense of paranoia and 2084 02:09:16.039 --> 02:09:18.840 a sense of fear. So the braining has to adjust 2085 02:09:18.920 --> 02:09:21.600 to these type of things, Dave, and it's very hard 2086 02:09:21.640 --> 02:09:22.000 to do. 2087 02:09:23.199 --> 02:09:26.039 And I think that is calculated. You know they've been 2088 02:09:26.319 --> 02:09:28.680 they want to do this even to the extent and 2089 02:09:28.720 --> 02:09:31.239 when you talk about these cameras taking everybody's picture, the 2090 02:09:31.520 --> 02:09:34.880 flock network that is out there, this corporation that is saying, well, 2091 02:09:34.880 --> 02:09:37.479 we can do whatever we want because it's in public space, 2092 02:09:38.159 --> 02:09:41.920 and you know we're not government, so we can collect 2093 02:09:41.920 --> 02:09:44.800 this information. And yet they collect it in order to 2094 02:09:44.840 --> 02:09:48.199 sell it to the government. So it's just one level indirect. 2095 02:09:48.239 --> 02:09:51.600 But they not only grab your license plate, but they 2096 02:09:51.640 --> 02:09:55.079 also do a complete profile of your car and all 2097 02:09:55.119 --> 02:09:57.800 of its idiosyncrasies. Is it have a dent here, does 2098 02:09:57.920 --> 02:10:00.279 have a scrape there? What about a bumper sticker, so 2099 02:10:00.359 --> 02:10:02.800 it creates a model of your car, and so they 2100 02:10:02.840 --> 02:10:06.159 almost have like, you know, biometric identification of your cars 2101 02:10:06.279 --> 02:10:09.760 as well as of you. And this is now made 2102 02:10:09.800 --> 02:10:13.279 possible because of the advances of AI. But this has 2103 02:10:13.319 --> 02:10:17.439 been something that has been concerning me. I look at 2104 02:10:17.439 --> 02:10:20.800 things kind of from a libertarian perspective, and this has 2105 02:10:20.840 --> 02:10:23.159 been concerning me for a long time. The idea that 2106 02:10:23.359 --> 02:10:28.159 government is using technology, many different ways of Internet, social media, 2107 02:10:28.199 --> 02:10:32.079 things like that, to monitor and to manipulate us all 2108 02:10:32.159 --> 02:10:36.159 the time. And to me, artificial intelligence just puts this 2109 02:10:36.279 --> 02:10:40.039 on steroids. And so I think there's something to be 2110 02:10:40.359 --> 02:10:43.680 anxious about. If we're going to look at this, we 2111 02:10:43.720 --> 02:10:46.399 should be concerned about it. Maybe not anxious, but we 2112 02:10:46.399 --> 02:10:49.079 should be concerned about the goals of people who are 2113 02:10:49.079 --> 02:10:50.359 putting this kind of stuff together. 2114 02:10:51.560 --> 02:10:54.279 So yeah, well there's that, and then there's if you 2115 02:10:54.319 --> 02:10:58.800 can manage to change the present, you can manipulate the future. 2116 02:10:59.159 --> 02:11:01.399 Of course. Is the real way to get it is 2117 02:11:01.399 --> 02:11:02.640 to get control of the past. 2118 02:11:02.800 --> 02:11:07.199 Is warwell pointed out, you control the past, you know, 2119 02:11:07.399 --> 02:11:10.840 you can control the present and by the implication, control 2120 02:11:10.880 --> 02:11:16.119 of the future. And we're seeing alterations of materials even 2121 02:11:16.319 --> 02:11:21.520 government documents, government films, documentaries, things like that are being 2122 02:11:21.560 --> 02:11:27.159 altered in ways that are not visible I should say detectable, 2123 02:11:27.439 --> 02:11:30.800 not detectable to the ordinary person. So they get ideas 2124 02:11:30.800 --> 02:11:35.479 about what the past was like which are wrong and. 2125 02:11:35.920 --> 02:11:36.880 Don't show you. 2126 02:11:37.600 --> 02:11:39.720 As I mentioned in the book, if you were at 2127 02:11:39.760 --> 02:11:45.800 a dance eighteen fifty before the Civil War and it's 2128 02:11:45.840 --> 02:11:48.680 a film or watching Let's just say we're watching a film 2129 02:11:48.760 --> 02:11:53.000 about eighteen fifty and we're seeing people ballroom dancing all that, 2130 02:11:53.039 --> 02:11:55.319 and then one of them pulls the side and pulls 2131 02:11:55.359 --> 02:11:58.479 out a cell phone, and you say, wait a minute, 2132 02:11:58.560 --> 02:12:01.159 we didn't have cell phones in Well, you know, there 2133 02:12:01.159 --> 02:12:02.800 were a lot of things that were going on. 2134 02:12:04.399 --> 02:12:05.640 Now that we're not. 2135 02:12:05.720 --> 02:12:08.560 Going on in the past, and it's not too our 2136 02:12:08.560 --> 02:12:11.359 advantage to try to pretend that they were. 2137 02:12:11.640 --> 02:12:12.159 They weren't. 2138 02:12:12.640 --> 02:12:15.840 We have to understand the past understand the future, and 2139 02:12:15.880 --> 02:12:21.800 we're not only creating situations that are false, but we're 2140 02:12:21.800 --> 02:12:27.119 also like in nineteen eighty four, Orwell created a character 2141 02:12:27.159 --> 02:12:29.039 called Commander Olov. 2142 02:12:30.000 --> 02:12:31.039 He was a war hero. 2143 02:12:31.439 --> 02:12:34.760 He got all sorts of medals, and it was all 2144 02:12:35.199 --> 02:12:38.279 the products that were all told to honor him, and 2145 02:12:38.279 --> 02:12:42.159 so forth. Well he never existed. He actually was made 2146 02:12:42.279 --> 02:12:45.359 up entirely. And that's one of the things that the 2147 02:12:45.479 --> 02:12:49.720 narrator is doing in the job work is filling in 2148 02:12:49.760 --> 02:12:57.600 photographs see Concerting Olov into historical events that happened, wartime scenarios, etc. 2149 02:12:58.159 --> 02:13:00.840 Anyone reading it will say, wow, this is this is 2150 02:13:00.880 --> 02:13:04.520 some man. Well he was a complete fabrication. We're just 2151 02:13:04.640 --> 02:13:10.239 about at that point with Sorau the AI. Well, it 2152 02:13:10.319 --> 02:13:13.039 could take you and had you, you know, to say, 2153 02:13:13.119 --> 02:13:16.000 let's get to David Knight and have him leading some. 2154 02:13:16.000 --> 02:13:18.079 Sort of a parade or whatever, and. 2155 02:13:18.039 --> 02:13:20.960 You know, suddenly people say, well, gosh, I saw with 2156 02:13:21.000 --> 02:13:25.439 my own eyes. So what's happening is that the actual seeing, 2157 02:13:25.520 --> 02:13:27.880 is believing is being turned on its head. 2158 02:13:27.960 --> 02:13:29.680 So that's no longer true. 2159 02:13:29.960 --> 02:13:33.119 You're talking about a completely fabricated character out of Orwell. 2160 02:13:33.800 --> 02:13:36.319 It's just recently they had Tillie Norwood, who is a 2161 02:13:36.319 --> 02:13:39.840 completely fabricated AI personality, and the person who came up 2162 02:13:39.880 --> 02:13:43.439 with it is got agents representing her. They got her 2163 02:13:43.439 --> 02:13:47.119 out there as an actress. I mean it was like, 2164 02:13:47.439 --> 02:13:49.720 so I've created an AI actress which will do a 2165 02:13:49.720 --> 02:13:52.399 lot of different roles for you. She probably does her 2166 02:13:52.399 --> 02:13:55.439 own stunts as well. I'm actually met people in SAG, 2167 02:13:55.800 --> 02:13:58.720 the screen actors Gil and Andy, furious about this, and 2168 02:13:58.800 --> 02:14:02.840 I said, any agents this AI character, it's not going 2169 02:14:02.920 --> 02:14:05.600 to do any business with us. But we're already at 2170 02:14:05.600 --> 02:14:07.720 that point. It truly is interesting. 2171 02:14:08.640 --> 02:14:11.119 Yeah, And one of the ways of neutralizing it is 2172 02:14:11.159 --> 02:14:13.840 to create the situation that exists right now between you 2173 02:14:13.880 --> 02:14:17.319 and me. You're laughing and I'm laughing because it seems funny, 2174 02:14:17.560 --> 02:14:21.000 and it is funny, but it's a very serious purpose. 2175 02:14:20.640 --> 02:14:21.399 Behind all of this. 2176 02:14:21.600 --> 02:14:26.279 Yes, it's all better to try to alter people's perceptions 2177 02:14:26.640 --> 02:14:29.720 so that they begin to doubt the varietity of what 2178 02:14:29.760 --> 02:14:30.520 they're seeing. 2179 02:14:31.039 --> 02:14:33.840 That's right. Yes, And I've talked for the longest time 2180 02:14:33.880 --> 02:14:36.920 about how the whole idea for the Internet was created 2181 02:14:36.920 --> 02:14:39.760 by darpest psychologists, and I've been concerned that it was 2182 02:14:39.760 --> 02:14:42.800 all about the psychological manipulation from the get go with 2183 02:14:42.880 --> 02:14:47.600 all of this. But as a physician and as a neuroscientist, 2184 02:14:48.800 --> 02:14:51.319 I'd be interested in your take on what is currently 2185 02:14:51.359 --> 02:14:55.239 going on, because besides manipulating the past by changing information 2186 02:14:55.279 --> 02:14:58.279 about the past or memory holding it, or writing a 2187 02:14:58.319 --> 02:15:02.239 new alternative history of it, they're also concerned and there's 2188 02:15:02.279 --> 02:15:05.560 been projects that have been put out by DARPA, and 2189 02:15:05.760 --> 02:15:07.439 I don't know if they've been successful or not, but 2190 02:15:07.600 --> 02:15:09.239 you know, they're putting out requests for people to come 2191 02:15:09.319 --> 02:15:13.680 up with things to manipulate people's memories. So you've got 2192 02:15:13.760 --> 02:15:17.720 a soldier, they say it, who's got bad PTSD. Let's 2193 02:15:17.720 --> 02:15:20.720 get rid of that memory. Let's give them different memories. 2194 02:15:21.960 --> 02:15:24.479 What do you see in terms of someone who studies 2195 02:15:24.479 --> 02:15:26.960 the brain and neuroscience, what do you see about that? 2196 02:15:27.119 --> 02:15:30.079 What do you take as I think is the state 2197 02:15:30.119 --> 02:15:30.760 of the art with that. 2198 02:15:31.800 --> 02:15:34.239 Well, my last book was called The Complete Book of Memory. 2199 02:15:34.319 --> 02:15:36.800 It had to do with memory and studied memory in 2200 02:15:36.880 --> 02:15:37.640 great detail. 2201 02:15:38.119 --> 02:15:38.840 And of course you. 2202 02:15:38.840 --> 02:15:41.880 Have to do a way with the concept that memory 2203 02:15:42.000 --> 02:15:45.479 is like a videotape or something that you just store 2204 02:15:45.560 --> 02:15:47.560 in your brain and when you get and want to 2205 02:15:47.600 --> 02:15:49.800 get it, you just bring it out like you bring 2206 02:15:49.840 --> 02:15:53.800 out a videotape. It's not like that. It's a reconstruction. 2207 02:15:53.960 --> 02:15:57.840 Each time you think back to a certain event, you 2208 02:15:58.039 --> 02:16:00.680 alter that memory that you have. 2209 02:16:00.840 --> 02:16:03.199 Memory one, memory two, memory three, on. 2210 02:16:03.319 --> 02:16:04.039 And on and all. 2211 02:16:04.920 --> 02:16:09.039 That's the nature of memory, and memory can be manipulated. 2212 02:16:09.600 --> 02:16:13.119 It's always you know, in the courtroom. They're always trying 2213 02:16:13.159 --> 02:16:16.760 to avoid the contamination of the witness. An example that 2214 02:16:16.800 --> 02:16:19.880 would be, well, which car went through the red light? 2215 02:16:21.000 --> 02:16:24.000 And to ask a witness he said, oh, it was 2216 02:16:24.439 --> 02:16:27.039 a red car went through the red light. Well, would 2217 02:16:27.079 --> 02:16:29.079 it surprise you to know that it wasn't a red 2218 02:16:29.119 --> 02:16:33.520 light but it was a stop sign? Mister witness, of course, 2219 02:16:33.559 --> 02:16:38.120 his credibility is gone because he took the suggestion that 2220 02:16:38.159 --> 02:16:41.239 it was a red light instead. It'll be very easy 2221 02:16:41.280 --> 02:16:44.760 to do because you don't necessarily have that image of 2222 02:16:44.799 --> 02:16:48.680 that intersection in your mind. So that's why there's protections 2223 02:16:48.719 --> 02:16:52.799 even in the courtroom against leading the witness. They caught 2224 02:16:53.200 --> 02:16:57.200 another words, providing information that's either not through at all 2225 02:16:57.520 --> 02:17:00.760 or half true. So we've got that ca This is 2226 02:17:00.799 --> 02:17:04.200 not this didn't start in the twenty first century. That 2227 02:17:04.200 --> 02:17:06.840 that started, you know as long as we've had court rooms. 2228 02:17:07.280 --> 02:17:11.399 This is a more emphasis now on altering memory. So 2229 02:17:11.399 --> 02:17:14.559 the people will not will get up there an undercross examination. 2230 02:17:14.680 --> 02:17:17.319 They'll do pretty well because their whole memories but altered. 2231 02:17:17.680 --> 02:17:23.879 They've changed by various mechanisms, suggestion, repeating information which is false, 2232 02:17:24.520 --> 02:17:27.840 of course, which is the misinformation. There was a cartoon 2233 02:17:27.920 --> 02:17:33.719 about a week ago by Ramirez, in which he's spilled 2234 02:17:33.760 --> 02:17:38.079 the prize winner. He has three doctors in an operating room. 2235 02:17:38.280 --> 02:17:41.680 It's in a laboratory. One of them is looking into 2236 02:17:41.680 --> 02:17:44.760 a microscope and he looks up and he says, this 2237 02:17:44.840 --> 02:17:48.879 is the most dangerous pathogen we have ever encountered. And 2238 02:17:48.920 --> 02:17:52.000 the second doctor says, well, is it ubonic plague? Is 2239 02:17:52.040 --> 02:17:55.159 it smallpox? And then the one that he says, no, 2240 02:17:55.680 --> 02:17:58.319 it's misinformation and disinformation. 2241 02:18:00.440 --> 02:18:03.959 That's right, And we've got to be very careful because 2242 02:18:04.440 --> 02:18:07.360 many times the people who will tell us about that 2243 02:18:07.440 --> 02:18:09.200 are the people who want to be the ones who 2244 02:18:09.319 --> 02:18:13.120 define what the information is for us, and they will 2245 02:18:13.120 --> 02:18:14.959 ask those leading questions. You know, when we talk about 2246 02:18:15.159 --> 02:18:18.319 leading questions and manipulating people, there's been a lot of 2247 02:18:18.360 --> 02:18:24.920 reports about artificial intelligence kind of people who have a 2248 02:18:25.399 --> 02:18:29.879 particular psychosis or something and they get involved with the 2249 02:18:29.920 --> 02:18:32.959 AI and it starts to confirm the things that they want, 2250 02:18:32.959 --> 02:18:34.719 because that's what it is set up to do in 2251 02:18:34.799 --> 02:18:37.959 terms of bias that want to, you know, be empathetic 2252 02:18:38.159 --> 02:18:41.079 and sympathetic to people, and so it starts doing that 2253 02:18:41.159 --> 02:18:43.959 and leading them further and further down a particular rabbit hole. 2254 02:18:44.200 --> 02:18:47.760 There's been situations of you know, people who got into 2255 02:18:47.799 --> 02:18:51.360 severe mental distress, some suicides of some young children and 2256 02:18:51.440 --> 02:18:54.360 other things like that speak to that aspect of it 2257 02:18:54.920 --> 02:18:57.239 and the real danger of that. That is really kind 2258 02:18:57.280 --> 02:19:01.760 of I think speaks to the to the psychological aspect 2259 02:19:01.799 --> 02:19:04.920 and potential of artificial intelligence, and that could be weaponized. 2260 02:19:05.120 --> 02:19:07.959 Right now, it's just kind of happening out of their 2261 02:19:08.000 --> 02:19:11.920 business model, right but that could definitely be weaponized against people. 2262 02:19:12.360 --> 02:19:12.479 Well. 2263 02:19:12.520 --> 02:19:14.440 I talk about that in my book in the chapter 2264 02:19:14.559 --> 02:19:17.760 on the Internet. There are famous examples of people who 2265 02:19:17.799 --> 02:19:25.399 have suicided right on the internet live feed, and they've 2266 02:19:25.399 --> 02:19:30.520 been manipulated to doing that by other people who've encouraged 2267 02:19:30.559 --> 02:19:32.920 them said this would be a sign of strength, this 2268 02:19:33.040 --> 02:19:37.319 would be a sign that you're not afraid to die 2269 02:19:37.440 --> 02:19:40.879 if necessary. And there's cases of them that actually led 2270 02:19:40.920 --> 02:19:44.559 to the suicide. One of them is most Grizzly. I 2271 02:19:44.600 --> 02:19:47.360 have in my book about a person who has talked 2272 02:19:47.399 --> 02:19:51.520 into pouring gasoline over themselves and setting a match all 2273 02:19:51.559 --> 02:19:56.520 on open feed Internet. And while this fire is burning, 2274 02:19:56.879 --> 02:19:59.920 you can hear everybody in the backgrounds cheer. 2275 02:20:00.479 --> 02:20:02.559 We did it, We did it. We got them to 2276 02:20:02.600 --> 02:20:02.920 do it. 2277 02:20:03.200 --> 02:20:06.559 Wow. That's amazing, amazing. 2278 02:20:06.600 --> 02:20:11.719 So there's something about the Internet and about that actually 2279 02:20:11.799 --> 02:20:17.559 brings out statistic criminal, psychopathic trends, and we don't know why. 2280 02:20:18.520 --> 02:20:21.799 Is it the fact that you don't necessarily can't be identified. 2281 02:20:22.520 --> 02:20:24.799 It's something that is going to be influencing and has 2282 02:20:24.879 --> 02:20:28.799 influenced the Internet greatly, and it will continue to do so, 2283 02:20:29.280 --> 02:20:30.680 and so we understand it. 2284 02:20:31.719 --> 02:20:33.520 I think that's one of the things that's so dangerous 2285 02:20:33.520 --> 02:20:36.239 about the things that we saw with lockdown, other aspects 2286 02:20:36.280 --> 02:20:40.520 of it. There's an atomization here, and so many different 2287 02:20:40.520 --> 02:20:45.440 ways the government and tech companies are trying to make 2288 02:20:45.440 --> 02:20:48.680 sure that we don't we're not in person with each other. 2289 02:20:48.760 --> 02:20:51.319 You know, many cases like, for example, in this interview, 2290 02:20:51.719 --> 02:20:53.559 we couldn't do this interview if we both had if 2291 02:20:53.600 --> 02:20:56.200 one of both of us had to travel. We're able 2292 02:20:56.200 --> 02:20:58.239 to do this because we can do it over zoom 2293 02:20:58.319 --> 02:21:03.719 or whatever. But just taking ordinary things that you would 2294 02:21:03.799 --> 02:21:08.239 normally do in terms of interacting with people in school 2295 02:21:08.319 --> 02:21:11.079 or in church or in your community or whatever, taking 2296 02:21:11.120 --> 02:21:13.319 that away and putting a screen between the two of you, 2297 02:21:13.360 --> 02:21:15.760 it really does change the way people interact with each other. 2298 02:21:15.920 --> 02:21:19.079 I remember Errol Morris, the film director was able to 2299 02:21:19.120 --> 02:21:22.000 get people to say all kinds of things. He got 2300 02:21:22.000 --> 02:21:27.760 a murderer to confess, He got Robert McNamara to confess 2301 02:21:28.159 --> 02:21:30.440 about the false Flago, the Vietnam War. He got people 2302 02:21:30.520 --> 02:21:33.200 say all kinds of stuff because there was that distance 2303 02:21:33.239 --> 02:21:36.040 between him and them. He could have interviewed them in person. 2304 02:21:36.200 --> 02:21:38.840 But what he did was he put an interotron, which 2305 02:21:38.879 --> 02:21:41.200 he is what he called it. It was basically a 2306 02:21:41.280 --> 02:21:43.639 teleprompter that he had set up so he could do 2307 02:21:43.680 --> 02:21:45.879 two way communication at the time. And once he had 2308 02:21:45.920 --> 02:21:50.799 that distance there, then it completely changed the dynamics that 2309 02:21:50.879 --> 02:21:54.360 he would have versus with somebody person to person. And 2310 02:21:54.399 --> 02:21:55.719 that's what we're talking about here, isn't it. 2311 02:21:56.799 --> 02:21:58.520 Yeah, we're talking about that, And of course there's the 2312 02:21:58.719 --> 02:22:01.719 incredations of this, and it continues like. 2313 02:22:02.120 --> 02:22:04.920 We're you're interviewing me, We're discussing. I feel like it's 2314 02:22:04.959 --> 02:22:05.600 a discussion. 2315 02:22:06.399 --> 02:22:09.479 If I were to say something that later I regretted, 2316 02:22:09.600 --> 02:22:11.440 I could probably say, oh, well, that wasn't me, that 2317 02:22:11.559 --> 02:22:12.840 was my avatar. 2318 02:22:15.000 --> 02:22:18.520 Or my agent, Right, I got an AI agent that's 2319 02:22:18.520 --> 02:22:24.639 out there doings. That's right, that's crazy. We also see though, 2320 02:22:24.959 --> 02:22:29.360 as a doctor, you're seeing people have noticed actual physical 2321 02:22:29.440 --> 02:22:32.200 changes that can be observed in people's brains from I'm 2322 02:22:32.200 --> 02:22:34.639 thinking of the story about the London taxi drivers who 2323 02:22:34.639 --> 02:22:37.959 would do the knowledge and they would find that as 2324 02:22:38.000 --> 02:22:42.559 they memorized all these factual details and drew on that 2325 02:22:42.719 --> 02:22:46.079 all the time in order to take people to you know, 2326 02:22:46.120 --> 02:22:49.479 this very complicated city with its complicated streets, that they 2327 02:22:49.520 --> 02:22:51.360 had a particular part of the brain that was larger 2328 02:22:51.399 --> 02:22:56.000 than the typical person. And then they found that once 2329 02:22:56.040 --> 02:22:57.959 they stopped doing that, it started to shrink again. And 2330 02:22:57.959 --> 02:23:01.159 we're starting to see that happening with people in a 2331 02:23:01.200 --> 02:23:03.120 lot of different areas of their life, that kind of 2332 02:23:03.159 --> 02:23:06.120 atrophy and it's physically observable, isn't it. 2333 02:23:07.079 --> 02:23:07.680 Well, it is. 2334 02:23:07.760 --> 02:23:10.799 You have to learn, you have to use the things 2335 02:23:10.879 --> 02:23:13.559 that you have learned to do. Like I mentioned in 2336 02:23:13.600 --> 02:23:17.319 my memory book, there's all kinds of memory exercises. 2337 02:23:16.719 --> 02:23:17.280 That you can do. 2338 02:23:17.319 --> 02:23:20.120 I do them every day and they're very easy and 2339 02:23:20.159 --> 02:23:23.239 they can help you to continue with your with your 2340 02:23:23.319 --> 02:23:25.479 memory to keep it sharp. 2341 02:23:25.799 --> 02:23:27.920 Give us some examples. I'm sure everybody would love to 2342 02:23:28.239 --> 02:23:29.760 know that. I would all like to have a better memory. 2343 02:23:29.879 --> 02:23:32.000 What kind of things do we can we do to 2344 02:23:32.360 --> 02:23:33.040 exercise I. 2345 02:23:33.079 --> 02:23:35.520 Think about the fact that you never had to learn 2346 02:23:35.600 --> 02:23:39.799 pictures when you were an infant and a young child. 2347 02:23:40.600 --> 02:23:43.360 A picture was something that you could You may not 2348 02:23:43.440 --> 02:23:45.239 know what you're looking at, but you could see it 2349 02:23:45.280 --> 02:23:49.639 without an intermediary language is something that you have to 2350 02:23:49.680 --> 02:23:52.799 hear from other people. It's something that's sort of added 2351 02:23:52.959 --> 02:23:56.799 on to the brain. Okay, So as a result, the 2352 02:23:56.879 --> 02:24:06.120 most the best way of remembering something is to make a. 2353 02:24:04.319 --> 02:24:05.079 Image for it. 2354 02:24:05.440 --> 02:24:05.799 Okay. 2355 02:24:06.840 --> 02:24:10.200 For instance, I have a little dog called a skipper Key. 2356 02:24:10.799 --> 02:24:14.799 Skipper Key is a Belgian dog. He's a nice little fellow. 2357 02:24:15.639 --> 02:24:17.639 But it was embarrassing to me when walking the street 2358 02:24:17.680 --> 02:24:19.280 people say what kind of a dog is that? 2359 02:24:19.680 --> 02:24:21.920 And it couldn't come up with a name because it 2360 02:24:22.000 --> 02:24:24.600 was so complicated. 2361 02:24:23.879 --> 02:24:25.959 And I thought that skipper Key I didn't speak any 2362 02:24:26.680 --> 02:24:27.440 doubt or anything. 2363 02:24:27.719 --> 02:24:30.159 So then I got this image of a small boat 2364 02:24:30.600 --> 02:24:34.920 with a large captain with a beard holding a big key. 2365 02:24:35.559 --> 02:24:39.319 So it was skipper Key and I remember forever. So 2366 02:24:39.360 --> 02:24:40.959 I was going to have the picture. Once I have 2367 02:24:41.000 --> 02:24:45.360 the picture, it's easy to do another way, easy way 2368 02:24:45.360 --> 02:24:46.719 to do it, and you can do that with all 2369 02:24:46.799 --> 02:24:47.440 kinds of times. 2370 02:24:47.479 --> 02:24:48.799 All the time I was. 2371 02:24:48.760 --> 02:24:52.799 Going upstairs before I came down to the office and 2372 02:24:52.879 --> 02:24:55.799 I wanted to get my wallet, and I wanted to 2373 02:24:55.840 --> 02:24:58.840 get my cell phone. So I just had an image 2374 02:24:58.840 --> 02:25:02.000 of a wall in the form of a cell phone, 2375 02:25:02.040 --> 02:25:05.040 and I was walking up the stairs talking into the 2376 02:25:05.079 --> 02:25:07.600 walllet cell phone. So I got up and I knew 2377 02:25:07.680 --> 02:25:10.159 I had these two elements to get. Be very easy 2378 02:25:10.159 --> 02:25:12.840 to get one and forget the other. So you have 2379 02:25:12.920 --> 02:25:16.319 these images all the time and the quickest you know, 2380 02:25:16.399 --> 02:25:18.280 this is sort of off the topic of the book, 2381 02:25:18.360 --> 02:25:23.719 but if you want to have a firepower memory for 2382 02:25:26.040 --> 02:25:29.120 a load of things, it's up to ten things and 2383 02:25:29.280 --> 02:25:32.159 get ten areas that you are familiar with that you 2384 02:25:32.319 --> 02:25:36.799 see every day, and then you could put on those 2385 02:25:37.399 --> 02:25:41.879 images the thing you're trying to remember. So if I'm 2386 02:25:41.920 --> 02:25:49.799 trying to remember a loaf of bread, milk, maybe a batteries, 2387 02:25:50.440 --> 02:25:51.719 I have a regular way. 2388 02:25:51.520 --> 02:25:54.840 Of doing that. I have like I remember the library 2389 02:25:54.840 --> 02:25:55.479 that's near. 2390 02:25:55.319 --> 02:26:01.920 My home, the coffee shop, liquor store, Georgetown University Medical 2391 02:26:01.959 --> 02:26:07.440 School where I went, Georgetown University, Cafe Milano, which is 2392 02:26:07.479 --> 02:26:13.799 a place in Washington everybody gathers, and then Keybridge, Ewa, 2393 02:26:13.920 --> 02:26:19.440 Jeema Memorial, and Regan Airport. So that bread would be, 2394 02:26:19.520 --> 02:26:21.280 for instance, the loaf of bread. I was looking in 2395 02:26:21.319 --> 02:26:23.920 the window of the library. Instead of seeing books, I 2396 02:26:24.079 --> 02:26:27.239 see bread loaves of bread. And when I get down 2397 02:26:27.280 --> 02:26:30.959 to the liquor store, instead of it being filled with liquor, 2398 02:26:31.200 --> 02:26:33.079 that'll be built ball. So that's how I love to 2399 02:26:33.120 --> 02:26:35.559 get two it so I have those ten, so I 2400 02:26:35.559 --> 02:26:36.920 can get ten items. 2401 02:26:36.520 --> 02:26:39.239 Together not any problems at all. 2402 02:26:39.959 --> 02:26:42.600 That's great. Yeah, you know, it's interesting you talk about 2403 02:26:42.639 --> 02:26:46.280 the importance of a visualization. It's one of the things 2404 02:26:46.280 --> 02:26:49.399 that I do in terms of preparing for the show. 2405 02:26:49.440 --> 02:26:51.159 I have a lot of articles that I go through 2406 02:26:51.760 --> 02:26:54.719 and it's really when I highlight things or when I 2407 02:26:54.719 --> 02:26:56.959 write them down, that's when I can remember them. If 2408 02:26:57.000 --> 02:26:58.399 I don't do that, if I were just to read 2409 02:26:58.440 --> 02:27:01.079 these things, I wouldn't remember them. But if I interact 2410 02:27:01.120 --> 02:27:03.360 with it and write it down, that helps me to 2411 02:27:03.399 --> 02:27:06.000 remember it. So that is a kind of visualization there, 2412 02:27:06.040 --> 02:27:10.000 I guess as well. It is. It truly is interesting 2413 02:27:10.239 --> 02:27:12.719 what you said earlier about memory not being something that 2414 02:27:12.799 --> 02:27:14.840 is stored in a place. As somebody coming from a 2415 02:27:14.879 --> 02:27:19.000 computer science background, that was a very different thing. When 2416 02:27:19.040 --> 02:27:22.159 you construct your your memory, you know, how do you 2417 02:27:22.200 --> 02:27:25.840 reconstruct that? I mean that that that as opens up 2418 02:27:25.879 --> 02:27:28.479 a whole new area of questions as well. In other words, 2419 02:27:28.520 --> 02:27:31.360 if every time somebody brings up a subject, I mean, 2420 02:27:31.399 --> 02:27:35.760 there isn't something that's stored initially to reference that and 2421 02:27:35.799 --> 02:27:37.799 then rebuild from that. 2422 02:27:38.040 --> 02:27:38.600 Yeah, there's that. 2423 02:27:39.000 --> 02:27:43.120 There's the interconnections. Like you know, somebody listening to us 2424 02:27:43.200 --> 02:27:45.600 might say, well, gee, this is called the twenty first 2425 02:27:45.639 --> 02:27:48.000 century brain, but I haven't heard that much about the brain. Well, 2426 02:27:48.040 --> 02:27:50.280 let me just link that up so that these things 2427 02:27:50.319 --> 02:27:54.399 make sense. We have a new version, or I should say, 2428 02:27:54.399 --> 02:27:57.200 a new understanding of the brain called the connectomet brain, 2429 02:27:58.000 --> 02:28:01.920 in which there's all kinds of interactions in the brain 2430 02:28:02.360 --> 02:28:05.120 of parts of the brain. But you don't we're just 2431 02:28:05.239 --> 02:28:08.639 learning about I have the I use the metaphor of 2432 02:28:08.680 --> 02:28:12.079 a bull of spaghetti. You pull out one of the 2433 02:28:12.120 --> 02:28:15.159 strains of spaghetti, and you never have any idea what 2434 02:28:15.200 --> 02:28:18.639 it's connected to. How many other strains is spaghetti this 2435 02:28:18.840 --> 02:28:21.840 is connected to? So that if you think of the 2436 02:28:21.840 --> 02:28:27.680 brain as being kind of set to make connections, that's 2437 02:28:27.680 --> 02:28:31.520 its natural processing. So it gets back to these things 2438 02:28:31.559 --> 02:28:34.760 that we were talking about earlier, you know, global warming 2439 02:28:34.879 --> 02:28:38.440 and memory and surveillance and all that how are we 2440 02:28:38.479 --> 02:28:41.639 going to solve all those Well, somehow or other those 2441 02:28:41.719 --> 02:28:46.760 things are connected with each other. That's the take home 2442 02:28:46.760 --> 02:28:51.879 message of this book. And the basic goal is to 2443 02:28:51.920 --> 02:28:54.680 try to figure out what it is that connects. 2444 02:28:54.239 --> 02:28:57.239 These things, what it is that would allow us to. 2445 02:28:58.920 --> 02:29:04.879 Buy solving one of them solve the other. And I 2446 02:29:05.000 --> 02:29:08.159 mentioned at the end of the book experts. So far, 2447 02:29:08.239 --> 02:29:11.920 I haven't done it. So it's useful, as Hiak said, 2448 02:29:12.639 --> 02:29:16.120 to get ordinary people to give. When I say ordinary, 2449 02:29:16.120 --> 02:29:20.159 I mean non specialized people to give their ideas. Do 2450 02:29:20.200 --> 02:29:23.280 you I wonder what such and such would happen? What 2451 02:29:23.319 --> 02:29:25.280 would happen about global warming? For a while there was, 2452 02:29:25.479 --> 02:29:28.559 in fact there's still experiments going on on the effect 2453 02:29:28.600 --> 02:29:35.399 of sulfur that would help the CO two problem, and 2454 02:29:35.680 --> 02:29:39.600 you know, shooting sulfur up into the atmosphere. Of course, 2455 02:29:39.600 --> 02:29:44.639 the reason for that was the volcano in nineteen eighty something, 2456 02:29:44.879 --> 02:29:49.159 in which after that volcano in Hawaii, it was noted 2457 02:29:49.239 --> 02:29:53.040 that the air was clearer and there was less pollution. 2458 02:29:53.959 --> 02:29:56.360 So that's something to think about, is there's some way 2459 02:29:56.399 --> 02:30:02.120 of using that particular sulfur experiment to decrease global warming. 2460 02:30:04.079 --> 02:30:06.440 War for instance, we don't think of war as a 2461 02:30:06.559 --> 02:30:08.440 cause of global warming, but it is. 2462 02:30:10.719 --> 02:30:11.680 Clear warning. 2463 02:30:13.559 --> 02:30:19.079 Since the Ukraine War and the gauze of war, then 2464 02:30:19.280 --> 02:30:22.799 you know, a tremendous amount that's going to overcome and 2465 02:30:22.920 --> 02:30:26.479 exceed the benefit of any of these things, like you know, 2466 02:30:27.840 --> 02:30:32.079 non gasoline engines, but using things like that. 2467 02:30:32.280 --> 02:30:34.959 Absolutely. Yeah, it's kind of like, you know, shooting up 2468 02:30:35.520 --> 02:30:37.719 rockets in order to put satellites up. You know, how 2469 02:30:37.760 --> 02:30:42.239 many how many cars and lifetime use of cars from 2470 02:30:42.280 --> 02:30:44.760 people would that be equivalent to And you start talking 2471 02:30:44.760 --> 02:30:46.760 about all the missiles that are being shot and then 2472 02:30:46.760 --> 02:30:49.639 you get to the explosives as well. Uh, it is 2473 02:30:49.840 --> 02:30:55.040 really interesting how they focus us on their objectives for 2474 02:30:55.159 --> 02:30:57.719 their ways to control the manipulation has been going on 2475 02:30:57.760 --> 02:31:02.280 for quite some time. And so yeah, that is it 2476 02:31:02.360 --> 02:31:05.680 is pretty amazing. And I guess that's my you know my, 2477 02:31:06.600 --> 02:31:08.479 when we look at this stuff, it really does look 2478 02:31:08.559 --> 02:31:11.120 like science fiction. And I'm almost inclined to write it 2479 02:31:11.120 --> 02:31:13.440 off when I first see it. When DARPA is saying, well, 2480 02:31:13.440 --> 02:31:16.520 we need to find some way that we can you know, 2481 02:31:16.680 --> 02:31:20.239 erase memories and people and insert new memories into them. 2482 02:31:20.280 --> 02:31:23.639 And we were going back to total recall, right, so 2483 02:31:24.040 --> 02:31:27.000 it sounds like something from Philip K. Dick novel, But 2484 02:31:27.639 --> 02:31:29.239 they're really working on that. And I guess one of 2485 02:31:29.239 --> 02:31:31.159 the most striking things that we saw we reported on 2486 02:31:31.200 --> 02:31:34.559 a couple of weeks ago, and it was a company 2487 02:31:34.600 --> 02:31:37.840 that was bragging about how they could read your mind 2488 02:31:39.120 --> 02:31:42.239 more accurately and quickly than their competitors, because there's a 2489 02:31:42.280 --> 02:31:45.000 lot of different companies that are doing this, and how 2490 02:31:45.040 --> 02:31:48.959 they could. It's called brain it was the name of 2491 02:31:49.000 --> 02:31:51.799 the company, and so they had a way that they 2492 02:31:51.799 --> 02:31:58.200 would do MRI and they could essentially train it on 2493 02:31:58.319 --> 02:32:00.799 your brain and I'm a shorter time the other people, 2494 02:32:00.840 --> 02:32:03.000 and they can get much better results. And our producers 2495 02:32:03.040 --> 02:32:04.920 just pull this up. So what they do is they 2496 02:32:04.920 --> 02:32:08.040 show you an image and you're looking at that image, 2497 02:32:08.120 --> 02:32:10.479 and then it's reading your mind and reconstructing what you're 2498 02:32:10.520 --> 02:32:14.360 looking at, which I thought was absolutely amazing and terrifying 2499 02:32:14.440 --> 02:32:17.280 at the same time. How is this going to be used? 2500 02:32:17.280 --> 02:32:20.000 I guess that's the real issue when we start talking 2501 02:32:20.000 --> 02:32:22.680 about all these different things. I think that is the 2502 02:32:22.719 --> 02:32:26.159 real case that it's difficult for people to understand just 2503 02:32:26.200 --> 02:32:30.079 how far and how quickly the technology has progressed, and 2504 02:32:30.120 --> 02:32:33.159 then to say, and how do we control this from 2505 02:32:33.360 --> 02:32:35.360 it being used for bad purposes. 2506 02:32:36.600 --> 02:32:40.959 Well, that's specifically twenty first century problem. Yes, because all 2507 02:32:41.000 --> 02:32:44.600 of these things are either originated in the twenty first 2508 02:32:44.600 --> 02:32:48.840 century or they have in fact further developed to become 2509 02:32:49.319 --> 02:32:50.559 increasingly threatening. 2510 02:32:51.239 --> 02:32:54.079 And bear in mind we have to have to solve 2511 02:32:54.120 --> 02:32:57.120 these problems because they're not something that's going to go away. 2512 02:32:57.159 --> 02:33:00.280 And then the most important thing to remember, David, is. 2513 02:33:00.280 --> 02:33:04.040 That all of these things harm the brain, and the 2514 02:33:04.079 --> 02:33:06.559 brain is the thinking processor. 2515 02:33:07.319 --> 02:33:08.479 It's going to save us. 2516 02:33:08.680 --> 02:33:11.399 It's going to figure out what the problems, what the 2517 02:33:11.440 --> 02:33:14.440 solutions to the problems are. So we know now that 2518 02:33:14.639 --> 02:33:19.959 wildfire smoke, for instance, it creates dementia, it enhances the 2519 02:33:20.840 --> 02:33:24.360 likelyhoodo subfy's coming to menash. So as the brain is 2520 02:33:24.959 --> 02:33:29.639 affected negatively increasingly over longer and longer periods of time, 2521 02:33:29.959 --> 02:33:33.280 our ability to solve these problems is going to decrease. 2522 02:33:33.760 --> 02:33:35.760 So we've got to do it now. We've got to 2523 02:33:35.799 --> 02:33:39.000 get serious about it. And this business of people getting 2524 02:33:39.079 --> 02:33:42.920 up saying the global warming is fiction and all that 2525 02:33:43.079 --> 02:33:45.920 is really very very disturbing. 2526 02:33:47.159 --> 02:33:49.280 Yeah. Well, you know the example that you gave earlier 2527 02:33:49.399 --> 02:33:52.959 of the fact that the Indian government was manipulating the 2528 02:33:53.200 --> 02:33:56.040 temperature at some of the stations there. That kind of 2529 02:33:56.079 --> 02:33:59.200 works both ways. They have put some of the temperature 2530 02:33:59.200 --> 02:34:02.200 stations on the air or tarmacs, and in the UK 2531 02:34:02.399 --> 02:34:05.399 they have a lot of the temperature stations that they've 2532 02:34:05.399 --> 02:34:07.959 got there, they're just extrapolating the data. They don't have 2533 02:34:08.040 --> 02:34:12.040 real temperature measurement stations there. So it all really gets back, 2534 02:34:12.079 --> 02:34:15.360 I think, to the scientific method, and that's really where 2535 02:34:15.399 --> 02:34:17.440 we have to hold people's feet to the fire. We're 2536 02:34:17.440 --> 02:34:19.760 talking about something like that. We can have an absolute 2537 02:34:19.760 --> 02:34:23.159 standard of what truth is, and that truth is going 2538 02:34:23.200 --> 02:34:26.760 to be being able to measure something accurately and being 2539 02:34:26.799 --> 02:34:30.280 able to reproduce that. And then I think a good 2540 02:34:30.319 --> 02:34:32.559 yardstick for that is when somebody is trying to hide 2541 02:34:32.600 --> 02:34:36.600 their data. That's the clue right there that they're not 2542 02:34:36.639 --> 02:34:40.719 doing science. Because if they're doing science and they've come 2543 02:34:40.760 --> 02:34:42.319 to the right conclusion, they don't have a problem with 2544 02:34:42.360 --> 02:34:45.879 somebody looking at their data. And so I've got a 2545 02:34:45.920 --> 02:34:48.280 question here for you from a person in the audience 2546 02:34:48.360 --> 02:34:53.559 asking you know about doctors James Giordano and Charles Morgan 2547 02:34:53.639 --> 02:34:56.440 their work with military. I'm not familiar with those names. 2548 02:34:56.440 --> 02:34:58.000 I don't know if you know anything about that or not. 2549 02:34:58.920 --> 02:35:03.319 To your daughter says familiar, what particular thing are they 2550 02:35:03.360 --> 02:35:04.239 asking about them? 2551 02:35:04.239 --> 02:35:06.000 I don't know it just as their work with the military. 2552 02:35:06.000 --> 02:35:07.959 I guess i'd have to do with something, but you 2553 02:35:07.959 --> 02:35:08.639 haven't heard of it. 2554 02:35:08.959 --> 02:35:12.600 I'm not sure I could say to your dollar, did 2555 02:35:12.639 --> 02:35:13.239 this or did that? 2556 02:35:13.760 --> 02:35:16.920 Sure? I understand. Yeah, let's talk a little bit about 2557 02:35:16.959 --> 02:35:20.920 the things that we have been anxious about, and of course, 2558 02:35:20.959 --> 02:35:23.399 as Christians, we have one answer to it. But you 2559 02:35:23.559 --> 02:35:26.760 talk about how this is something that has been around 2560 02:35:27.000 --> 02:35:29.040 pretty much all of our life. I mean there was 2561 02:35:29.239 --> 02:35:32.719 I grew up with anxiety about nuclear war, for example. 2562 02:35:32.799 --> 02:35:37.120 That was on everybody's television, and that was a fourth 2563 02:35:37.120 --> 02:35:40.799 front front of our mind, especially growing up in Florida 2564 02:35:40.840 --> 02:35:43.040 when the Cuban missile crisis was happening. They got us 2565 02:35:43.200 --> 02:35:45.200 really afraid of that. When I was in elementary school. 2566 02:35:45.239 --> 02:35:47.040 You know, it's like there's not gonna be enough time 2567 02:35:47.079 --> 02:35:48.879 for you to get home. You know, a nuclear bomb 2568 02:35:48.879 --> 02:35:52.559 started falling in So, I mean there's all these different 2569 02:35:52.559 --> 02:35:54.959 ways that you can panic people. I guess part of 2570 02:35:55.000 --> 02:35:58.879 it is how do we identify the real problems and 2571 02:35:58.959 --> 02:36:03.440 how do we deal with those problems because there's always 2572 02:36:03.520 --> 02:36:07.399 things that are competing for our attention and our anxiety, 2573 02:36:07.719 --> 02:36:10.120 many of which are not real, you know, and usually 2574 02:36:10.120 --> 02:36:13.040 the things that you're really the most concerned about won't happen, 2575 02:36:13.520 --> 02:36:15.799 and it may be sometimes because you have taken a 2576 02:36:15.840 --> 02:36:22.159 precaution about it. What would you say about that, about anxiety? 2577 02:36:24.760 --> 02:36:26.760 You're starting to break up a little bit, Can you 2578 02:36:26.840 --> 02:36:27.559 hear me, clearly? 2579 02:36:27.639 --> 02:36:30.159 I hear you, yes, Yes, sorry about that. You're talking 2580 02:36:30.159 --> 02:36:33.680 about breaking up a little bit. You're talking about traumatizing 2581 02:36:33.680 --> 02:36:37.040 a population. You know, what do we do to guard 2582 02:36:37.120 --> 02:36:39.159 against that type of thing? And of course that's going 2583 02:36:39.200 --> 02:36:43.920 to really escalate with the ability of AI to create 2584 02:36:44.000 --> 02:36:44.639 a narrative. 2585 02:36:47.479 --> 02:36:51.120 Yeah, well, let's talk about it as an avenue to 2586 02:36:51.159 --> 02:36:53.040 get into that. Let's go back to what you've brought 2587 02:36:53.079 --> 02:36:57.520 about atomic weapons and the atomic war, the fears of 2588 02:36:57.600 --> 02:37:00.319 the people that there's going to be another atomic war. 2589 02:37:00.760 --> 02:37:04.000 I mean, you know, this is not unrealistic. There's even 2590 02:37:04.040 --> 02:37:06.920 been a movie that's just come out that's getting all 2591 02:37:07.000 --> 02:37:09.600 kinds of attention, as you know, and it has to. 2592 02:37:09.479 --> 02:37:12.440 Do with the threat of a nuclear war. 2593 02:37:13.079 --> 02:37:16.600 Things in the If you look at what's happening in 2594 02:37:17.079 --> 02:37:20.239 Europe right now, there's all kinds of suggestions that could 2595 02:37:20.319 --> 02:37:23.399 lead to a nuclear war. I mean, Ukraine now has 2596 02:37:23.440 --> 02:37:26.239 announced that they're under no conditions willing to give up 2597 02:37:26.280 --> 02:37:31.319 any land, and Stalin is I mean, Putin is thinking 2598 02:37:31.399 --> 02:37:34.200 what he can do to change that. But maybe he'll 2599 02:37:34.200 --> 02:37:38.479 attack another country. I mean, this is scary stuff. So 2600 02:37:38.559 --> 02:37:41.959 what's happening in response to the government is to try 2601 02:37:42.000 --> 02:37:45.000 to show that, oh, we shouldn't worry about it, we 2602 02:37:45.040 --> 02:37:47.159 have things under control. But I don't think things are 2603 02:37:47.239 --> 02:37:47.879 under control. 2604 02:37:50.719 --> 02:37:53.360 And we've talked about the problems, and we talked about 2605 02:37:53.360 --> 02:37:58.079 problems you have. Your final chapter is New ways of Thinking, 2606 02:37:58.799 --> 02:38:01.959 and I'd like to talk about that. One of the 2607 02:38:02.040 --> 02:38:05.040 things that you say is Ocam was wrong. Occam's razor 2608 02:38:05.200 --> 02:38:07.879 that you know people are familiar with. Tell us a 2609 02:38:07.879 --> 02:38:09.440 little bit about that. Why is I come wrong? 2610 02:38:11.360 --> 02:38:14.479 Well, because he says that, you know, the entities are 2611 02:38:14.479 --> 02:38:17.200 not to be multiplied, meaning that we can always explain 2612 02:38:17.319 --> 02:38:21.399 things best by limiting ourselves to the minimum amount of factors, 2613 02:38:21.920 --> 02:38:25.120 ideally one one cause of every effect. 2614 02:38:25.440 --> 02:38:26.959 That's not true. It's certainly not true. 2615 02:38:27.000 --> 02:38:30.680 In the twenty first century, there's all kinds of interactions 2616 02:38:30.719 --> 02:38:35.799 between factors and cause, so that Occam was wrong in 2617 02:38:35.799 --> 02:38:39.440 that basis. We have to think of an interconnecting pool, 2618 02:38:39.719 --> 02:38:43.200 just as in the brain, of interconnections of neurons, interconnections 2619 02:38:43.200 --> 02:38:44.360 of these problems. 2620 02:38:44.040 --> 02:38:45.120 And they're all related. 2621 02:38:45.639 --> 02:38:48.440 They're all eight of them I talk about in my book. 2622 02:38:48.760 --> 02:38:51.600 They're all related. And if you can figure way of 2623 02:38:51.639 --> 02:38:56.079 influencing one, you influence all the others. I mean, who 2624 02:38:56.120 --> 02:38:58.920 would think there'd be a connection between global warming and 2625 02:38:58.959 --> 02:39:04.680 the amount of artison and cheese Friends's high end cheese. 2626 02:39:04.760 --> 02:39:08.120 Well, there is, because they don't chicken stole lay the 2627 02:39:08.280 --> 02:39:10.479 many eggs, and it would be all the various other 2628 02:39:10.520 --> 02:39:12.959 things to. 2629 02:39:12.000 --> 02:39:15.200 Come on in terms of making cheese. I turned out 2630 02:39:15.319 --> 02:39:17.680 learned that the other day. That was something that was 2631 02:39:17.719 --> 02:39:18.639 a surprise to me. 2632 02:39:19.079 --> 02:39:21.159 You know, it's kind of interesting. We talked about connections 2633 02:39:21.159 --> 02:39:23.760 so much, and there was a series that was I 2634 02:39:23.760 --> 02:39:25.799 think it was on PBS. I think the guy's name 2635 02:39:25.840 --> 02:39:27.799 was Burke. I can't remember his first name. I'm not 2636 02:39:27.799 --> 02:39:29.799 sure about the last name. But he had a series 2637 02:39:29.840 --> 02:39:33.719 called Connections, and I thought it was fascinating because what 2638 02:39:33.760 --> 02:39:36.600 he would do is he would take a whole series 2639 02:39:36.639 --> 02:39:40.920 of connections to show how a particular technology had evolved, 2640 02:39:40.959 --> 02:39:43.040 you know, so he might go from you know, the 2641 02:39:43.159 --> 02:39:46.760 quill to the to the jet engine or something like that. 2642 02:39:47.079 --> 02:39:51.399 And it was a fascinating, fascinating thread of things, very 2643 02:39:51.479 --> 02:39:52.799 much like what you're talking about. 2644 02:39:56.440 --> 02:39:58.799 It really is. And I did I did consult his work. 2645 02:39:58.840 --> 02:40:00.719 Actually did you this book? 2646 02:40:01.159 --> 02:40:04.159 Because he did that connections. He did a book called 2647 02:40:04.200 --> 02:40:06.680 The Day the World Changed and all this. He also 2648 02:40:06.719 --> 02:40:09.639 did a book called Circles, in which he would start 2649 02:40:09.680 --> 02:40:13.319 with one particular event that he cared in history, and 2650 02:40:13.360 --> 02:40:15.920 if you go around the circle, you come back to 2651 02:40:16.280 --> 02:40:20.479 the beginning where it started, where this particular inventor invented something, 2652 02:40:20.719 --> 02:40:23.159 what led up to it, What was the circle. 2653 02:40:22.920 --> 02:40:26.520 Leading to that. So, yes, we're talking about connections, and 2654 02:40:26.559 --> 02:40:31.200 we're talking about the inability to understand things without reference 2655 02:40:31.280 --> 02:40:35.639 to supporting an accessory factors. We have that going all 2656 02:40:35.719 --> 02:40:38.879 the time, denying things that are going to be happening. 2657 02:40:39.680 --> 02:40:41.719 Of course, I think the fearful thing is that the 2658 02:40:41.760 --> 02:40:46.280 government is aiding in this denial, because if you would 2659 02:40:46.319 --> 02:40:50.319 deny that there's a problem, then there's very little impetus 2660 02:40:50.360 --> 02:40:53.680 to try to solve it, you know, Yeah, and there 2661 02:40:53.959 --> 02:40:56.360 is no problem, don't try to solve it. 2662 02:40:57.600 --> 02:41:02.879 They're throwing out their own chaos and uncertainty and anxiety 2663 02:41:02.920 --> 02:41:06.159 that's out there all the time always, I guess. So 2664 02:41:06.239 --> 02:41:11.600 the question is you're talked about volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. 2665 02:41:12.040 --> 02:41:14.639 I mean it sounds like a government policy. I think 2666 02:41:14.639 --> 02:41:16.680 they've got bureaucracies that specialized on that. 2667 02:41:18.479 --> 02:41:20.639 Yeah, yeah, well actually that's true. 2668 02:41:20.959 --> 02:41:23.440 Yeah, that's in your section there about new ways of 2669 02:41:23.479 --> 02:41:26.079 thinking and so how do we incorporate that in the 2670 02:41:26.120 --> 02:41:29.079 new ways of thinking that help us to solve this riddle? 2671 02:41:31.000 --> 02:41:33.600 Well, each of those factors is. 2672 02:41:33.479 --> 02:41:38.559 A factor that helps you to understand things and to 2673 02:41:38.639 --> 02:41:41.000 have more control. It doesn't necessarily mean it helps you 2674 02:41:41.040 --> 02:41:43.520 to link them together. That has to be done by 2675 02:41:43.520 --> 02:41:48.360 original thinking. You have to be under those things. Things 2676 02:41:48.399 --> 02:41:53.520 are evolvable. You don't have a basic situation that doesn't change. 2677 02:41:53.520 --> 02:41:56.840 It changes all the time. So that The other thing 2678 02:41:56.840 --> 02:42:00.639 that I want to emphasize most is that is the 2679 02:42:00.719 --> 02:42:03.719 role of capitalism in all of this. I mean, there's 2680 02:42:03.840 --> 02:42:08.559 all this like the private equity, the business of people 2681 02:42:09.000 --> 02:42:11.760 having a point of view that is going to advance 2682 02:42:11.879 --> 02:42:18.200 them financially, and that blinding them to the problems that 2683 02:42:18.239 --> 02:42:21.559 are here, Like, for instance, we talked about global warming, Well, 2684 02:42:21.600 --> 02:42:25.079 the rich people of very rich people are buying multi 2685 02:42:25.079 --> 02:42:29.879 million dollar departments and condominiums which have special. 2686 02:42:29.559 --> 02:42:31.799 Air filters which will keep. 2687 02:42:31.600 --> 02:42:35.840 The wildfire smoke out, and we'll try to keep the 2688 02:42:36.040 --> 02:42:43.840 global warming effect at bay by superpower air conditioners. 2689 02:42:44.239 --> 02:42:48.920 So the building they're building their own bunkers to buildings 2690 02:42:48.959 --> 02:42:52.360 that are creating all kinds of chaos and and uh, 2691 02:42:52.440 --> 02:42:55.079 you know, weapons of war mass destruction. They're out there 2692 02:42:55.079 --> 02:42:58.840 building super bunkers in various places as well. So I 2693 02:42:58.840 --> 02:43:01.200 think they're somewhat pessimist think about what they're doing. 2694 02:43:02.479 --> 02:43:04.719 Well, it's basically the idea is that, you know, we 2695 02:43:04.719 --> 02:43:06.600 don't care about the ordinary person. 2696 02:43:07.000 --> 02:43:08.920 We're going to survive. We're going to see to our 2697 02:43:08.959 --> 02:43:12.040 own survival, and if we in order to do that, 2698 02:43:12.079 --> 02:43:14.680 we have to deny certain things that are that are 2699 02:43:14.719 --> 02:43:17.600 going on, will do so. Now, incidentally, all of this 2700 02:43:17.639 --> 02:43:19.319 is not conscious thinking. 2701 02:43:19.920 --> 02:43:23.600 They don't necessarily say, well, I'm going to deny global 2702 02:43:23.639 --> 02:43:26.840 warming because it'll be to my advantage financially because all 2703 02:43:26.920 --> 02:43:31.159 my investment is in the globe the oil and gas industry. 2704 02:43:31.040 --> 02:43:33.319 They don't do it that way. They come up with 2705 02:43:33.479 --> 02:43:37.520 pseudo logic, things that seem to make sense to them, 2706 02:43:37.559 --> 02:43:41.639 But if they didn't have a financial thrust in the matter, 2707 02:43:41.840 --> 02:43:44.200 they would look out upon it quite differently. 2708 02:43:44.399 --> 02:43:46.559 That's right. We can always find a justification for what 2709 02:43:46.600 --> 02:43:49.879 it was, what it is that we really want. Everybody 2710 02:43:49.920 --> 02:43:52.159 should understand that if your parents this time of year, 2711 02:43:52.200 --> 02:43:55.200 at Christmas time, you can always understand that people will 2712 02:43:55.200 --> 02:43:57.479 come up with a justification for what they want. And 2713 02:43:57.520 --> 02:44:00.319 that's that's as true of government as a is of 2714 02:44:00.360 --> 02:44:02.479 corporations out there, and it's really dangerous one of the 2715 02:44:02.479 --> 02:44:04.760 two of them connect with each other. I think that's 2716 02:44:04.760 --> 02:44:06.840 one of the things. You know, you talk about connections 2717 02:44:06.840 --> 02:44:09.319 and the importance of it and how we can try 2718 02:44:09.360 --> 02:44:12.479 to connect these different factors, each of us individually. But 2719 02:44:12.520 --> 02:44:15.559 I think it's the human connection that is out there 2720 02:44:15.600 --> 02:44:18.040 that is going to be essential for all of this. 2721 02:44:18.159 --> 02:44:21.280 It's going to be our collective work on and all this. 2722 02:44:21.799 --> 02:44:23.600 What do you think about that? Would you agree with that? 2723 02:44:25.520 --> 02:44:27.280 Well, I'd agree with it. But there's so many things 2724 02:44:27.319 --> 02:44:31.319 that are taking place now that are causing the schisms 2725 02:44:31.360 --> 02:44:36.799 and yes, splitting people into factors and belief systems and 2726 02:44:36.879 --> 02:44:40.920 political points of view, and that's very dangerous because then 2727 02:44:40.959 --> 02:44:44.200 you can't get together any kind of unity, even in 2728 02:44:44.200 --> 02:44:45.959 the face of an emergency. 2729 02:44:46.200 --> 02:44:48.479 Well, I think we've always had I think we've always 2730 02:44:48.479 --> 02:44:51.360 had these factor you know, factions and things like that. 2731 02:44:51.399 --> 02:44:53.799 You know, the founder of the country warned about factions 2732 02:44:53.799 --> 02:44:55.920 and political parties. But I think what makes it unique 2733 02:44:56.520 --> 02:45:00.000 is that when you're interacting with people on a personal basis, 2734 02:45:00.879 --> 02:45:03.520 you interact with them a little bit differently than if 2735 02:45:03.520 --> 02:45:07.040 you've got that separation between you that technology is giving 2736 02:45:07.120 --> 02:45:10.399 us now, because now you're interacting with something that's abstract, 2737 02:45:10.399 --> 02:45:13.319 it's not with another person, and there's also the body 2738 02:45:13.399 --> 02:45:16.120 language that you're not picking up on. But it makes 2739 02:45:16.120 --> 02:45:18.280 it easier for you to be harder on people when 2740 02:45:18.280 --> 02:45:21.120 there's that distance there. I think that's why I think, 2741 02:45:21.159 --> 02:45:23.959 you know, the personal connection I think is really vital 2742 02:45:24.319 --> 02:45:28.120 to making these connections and coming up with an understanding 2743 02:45:28.159 --> 02:45:30.239 of what's going on. We talk about the hidden factors 2744 02:45:30.239 --> 02:45:34.079 that are out there, hidden unrelated topics, other people, as 2745 02:45:34.079 --> 02:45:37.559 you pointed out earlier, just talking to ordinary people about 2746 02:45:37.600 --> 02:45:40.120 what it is that you see with different things. I 2747 02:45:40.159 --> 02:45:43.159 think that is the genius of the collective free market 2748 02:45:43.200 --> 02:45:48.159 out there. That there's so many observers who are looking 2749 02:45:48.200 --> 02:45:50.920 at things and thinking about them, and it's kind of 2750 02:45:50.959 --> 02:45:54.479 their collective decision that is kind of guiding things along, 2751 02:45:54.920 --> 02:45:57.520 as opposed to having a central planner who's doing that. 2752 02:45:58.360 --> 02:46:00.879 What do you think about that You've got to in 2753 02:46:00.959 --> 02:46:03.319 your final chapter a new way of thinking? You have 2754 02:46:03.680 --> 02:46:08.079 what you call it sensible solution. What does that really involve? 2755 02:46:09.399 --> 02:46:12.120 I'm sorry, I hear what you said the last part. 2756 02:46:12.559 --> 02:46:15.000 You have a sensible solution. What do you think a 2757 02:46:15.040 --> 02:46:20.159 sensible solution to the kind of stress and chaos and 2758 02:46:20.360 --> 02:46:22.600 anxiety that we have, manipulation that we have. What is 2759 02:46:22.639 --> 02:46:24.440 a solution to that? Well? 2760 02:46:24.440 --> 02:46:26.799 I think the Wikipedia is a good example of that. 2761 02:46:27.280 --> 02:46:30.600 They have people from all walks of life, all levels 2762 02:46:30.639 --> 02:46:36.040 of education, free to contribute to whatever topic they may 2763 02:46:36.079 --> 02:46:38.399 want to do that it may be helpful. 2764 02:46:38.440 --> 02:46:39.799 I mentioned earlier about the. 2765 02:46:39.760 --> 02:46:45.280 Effect of global warming on the making of cheese. It 2766 02:46:45.360 --> 02:46:47.559 might be somebody who makes cheese that's going to come 2767 02:46:47.600 --> 02:46:48.479 up with some idea. 2768 02:46:49.360 --> 02:46:50.440 You know, we don't know that. 2769 02:46:50.600 --> 02:46:52.319 We don't know that that may not be where it 2770 02:46:52.360 --> 02:46:56.360 comes some original idea of what to do about global warming, 2771 02:46:56.719 --> 02:46:58.479 And you put it on what I'd like to think 2772 02:46:58.520 --> 02:47:00.719 and I hope it will be developed a kind of 2773 02:47:00.840 --> 02:47:05.840 Wikipedia where the ordinary person can feel free to put 2774 02:47:05.879 --> 02:47:08.159 forth their ideas about it. Now you say, well, we 2775 02:47:08.239 --> 02:47:10.920 already have that, we have the Internet, No we don't. 2776 02:47:11.319 --> 02:47:13.520 The Internet is a commercial situation. 2777 02:47:14.159 --> 02:47:17.079 It's all done for making money and you have attention 2778 02:47:17.200 --> 02:47:20.479 and all that, and there's no criticism of it. There's 2779 02:47:20.520 --> 02:47:23.479 no pure review, if you will, rights in the Wikipedia. 2780 02:47:24.000 --> 02:47:26.000 I mean, you know, people could write in and say, well, 2781 02:47:26.000 --> 02:47:30.120 that particular contribution as bonkers, and then give an example 2782 02:47:30.159 --> 02:47:32.079 why it is that was a very good idea. 2783 02:47:32.399 --> 02:47:34.239 And after that you begin to get. 2784 02:47:34.040 --> 02:47:39.559 Things coming together in unpredictable ways that may help us 2785 02:47:39.559 --> 02:47:41.000 solve these eight problems. 2786 02:47:42.559 --> 02:47:44.440 Yeah, the problem is it seems like whenever you wind 2787 02:47:44.520 --> 02:47:47.559 up having a form or place where things can be, 2788 02:47:47.559 --> 02:47:49.959 and that's true of the Internet, it's also true of Wikipedia, 2789 02:47:50.319 --> 02:47:53.040 then it becomes you have gatekeepers who are there. And 2790 02:47:54.600 --> 02:47:57.719 we saw this in spades throughout the COVID stuff that 2791 02:47:58.079 --> 02:48:02.520 if somebody's got a different idea, rather than debate them, 2792 02:48:01.719 --> 02:48:05.799 the impetus is to silence them by the people who 2793 02:48:05.840 --> 02:48:09.120 are in authority. And so that really, I think is 2794 02:48:09.440 --> 02:48:12.079 the key thing, and I think as part of that 2795 02:48:12.120 --> 02:48:20.399 we see a continuing rise in disgust and deprivation of 2796 02:48:21.719 --> 02:48:25.120 free speech. People are not interested in the principle of 2797 02:48:25.120 --> 02:48:27.520 free speech. They don't want to have open debate. And 2798 02:48:27.559 --> 02:48:30.200 I see this regardless of where people coming from on 2799 02:48:30.200 --> 02:48:35.680 the political spectrum. There is a declining interest and debate 2800 02:48:35.920 --> 02:48:39.719 and thinking. You know, the debate is critical to critical thinking, 2801 02:48:40.200 --> 02:48:43.959 and so the people who are in charge, the gatekeepers, 2802 02:48:43.959 --> 02:48:47.879 whether it's Wikipedia or the Internet or any other form 2803 02:48:47.920 --> 02:48:50.959 of information, they are weighing in on that, and they 2804 02:48:51.000 --> 02:48:54.719 don't want things that they disagree with. And it might 2805 02:48:54.760 --> 02:48:56.719 be because they've got an agenda, or it might be because 2806 02:48:56.639 --> 02:49:00.319 they've just got a particular prejudice about something that want 2807 02:49:00.360 --> 02:49:04.079 to make sure that the contrary views don't get out there. 2808 02:49:04.879 --> 02:49:08.159 That I think is the real key that's there. And 2809 02:49:08.200 --> 02:49:11.680 again this is part of this animization that we have 2810 02:49:11.879 --> 02:49:14.959 of people feeding that tribalism in the way that we've 2811 02:49:15.000 --> 02:49:17.399 never seen it before using technology. 2812 02:49:18.000 --> 02:49:21.319 I would agree with everything you've just said exactly, and 2813 02:49:22.000 --> 02:49:23.680 I think we have to try to get beyond that. 2814 02:49:24.520 --> 02:49:26.000 But we get back. 2815 02:49:25.879 --> 02:49:28.959 Again to this business of people having their own personal 2816 02:49:29.399 --> 02:49:36.200 financial point of view and position and pushing that basically. 2817 02:49:35.719 --> 02:49:37.559 On the fact that they look upon it as. 2818 02:49:37.760 --> 02:49:42.760 So maybe we're talking about a capitalism problem. We've got capitalism, 2819 02:49:42.760 --> 02:49:44.639 it's what this country's all about. But I mean it's 2820 02:49:44.920 --> 02:49:47.079 certain parts of it. Now we've gone to the point 2821 02:49:47.079 --> 02:49:50.479 where people are unable to take another point of view 2822 02:49:50.840 --> 02:49:54.639 if it's going to be financially harmful and hurtful to them. 2823 02:49:54.760 --> 02:49:58.879 Yeah, I think that, you know, we start looking at 2824 02:49:58.879 --> 02:50:02.239 the tech companies. I don't think that their capitalism would exist. 2825 02:50:02.239 --> 02:50:03.840 I don't think they have billions of dollars if they 2826 02:50:03.879 --> 02:50:07.360 weren't unified with the government. So there's a there's a 2827 02:50:07.399 --> 02:50:11.760 symbiosis there that the two of these entities feed off 2828 02:50:11.799 --> 02:50:15.360 of each other. And I think that in exus right 2829 02:50:15.360 --> 02:50:18.959 there is the is the difficult thing. And so I think, 2830 02:50:19.040 --> 02:50:22.280 you know, when I think of capitalism, I don't like 2831 02:50:22.319 --> 02:50:24.879 to refer to capitalism anymore because I think of it 2832 02:50:24.920 --> 02:50:28.520 as a partnership, a public private partnership, some kind of 2833 02:50:28.559 --> 02:50:32.360 a economic fascism where they are working together. But I 2834 02:50:32.440 --> 02:50:34.680 like to think of a free, competitive market where the 2835 02:50:34.719 --> 02:50:37.639 government doesn't have any role except as some kind of 2836 02:50:37.680 --> 02:50:41.000 a referee between two parties that have a conflict or something. 2837 02:50:41.040 --> 02:50:44.280 But yeah, that's a that's the thing that's really driving this. 2838 02:50:44.399 --> 02:50:47.000 You know, many people when they talk about AI, they said, well, 2839 02:50:47.000 --> 02:50:49.719 you know, here's a couple of different outcomes. Maybe this 2840 02:50:49.760 --> 02:50:51.479 stuff really works the way it's supposed to work, and 2841 02:50:51.479 --> 02:50:53.920 it takes everybody's jobs and we wind up with a depression. 2842 02:50:54.360 --> 02:50:56.600 Or maybe it doesn't work at all, in which case 2843 02:50:56.680 --> 02:51:00.120 the big AI stock bubble that we've got bursts and 2844 02:51:00.159 --> 02:51:03.159 everybody loses their job because of that. Well there's a 2845 02:51:03.200 --> 02:51:06.239 third alternative, and that is that the government keeps popping 2846 02:51:06.280 --> 02:51:10.920 it up with public funds because it feeds their surveillance 2847 02:51:11.159 --> 02:51:16.399 and manipulation needs and their ability to surveil and to 2848 02:51:16.479 --> 02:51:19.600 control us. And I really think that that's where this 2849 02:51:19.719 --> 02:51:21.680 is all going to head. I don't really you know, 2850 02:51:21.920 --> 02:51:24.120 those other two things may happen, and they may be true, 2851 02:51:24.120 --> 02:51:27.719 but I think there is a customer out there for 2852 02:51:27.760 --> 02:51:29.920 the AI stuff that is driving all this stuff, that 2853 02:51:29.959 --> 02:51:32.399 has been putting out these proposals for the longest time, 2854 02:51:32.399 --> 02:51:35.120 and that's governments, governments around the world. I mean, we 2855 02:51:35.159 --> 02:51:37.280 look at the Brain project that we had a few 2856 02:51:37.319 --> 02:51:40.559 years ago, that was during the Oboma administration. But things 2857 02:51:40.639 --> 02:51:44.639 like the Brain Computer Interface that Elon Musk and many 2858 02:51:44.680 --> 02:51:48.520 other tech companies are doing out there. There's neuralink and 2859 02:51:48.760 --> 02:51:50.920 there's a lot of them that are doing that. That's 2860 02:51:50.959 --> 02:51:55.680 being driven by the government wanting to connect into our minds, 2861 02:51:55.719 --> 02:51:58.280 hack into our minds really, and they've been funding that 2862 02:51:58.319 --> 02:52:00.600 kind of stuff. So how do we break that. 2863 02:52:00.840 --> 02:52:04.959 Yeah, on the musk side, it seems doing it for money, 2864 02:52:05.000 --> 02:52:07.319 I mean obviously to make money. That's right, So that 2865 02:52:07.360 --> 02:52:11.479 there's unholy alliance if you will, between someone who can't 2866 02:52:11.520 --> 02:52:14.479 see anything on the dollar and in another side of 2867 02:52:14.479 --> 02:52:17.360 the government can't see anything other than increasing power and 2868 02:52:17.399 --> 02:52:19.159 surveillance over the population. 2869 02:52:19.719 --> 02:52:23.200 Yeah, that's right, absolutely true. Well, it's a fascinating book. 2870 02:52:23.200 --> 02:52:27.079 It's fascinating take on this. And of course you've written 2871 02:52:27.079 --> 02:52:31.239 many books on the brain, the memory one very interesting, 2872 02:52:31.639 --> 02:52:35.040 and you do have sections about memory in this book 2873 02:52:35.079 --> 02:52:38.280 as well. And people be able to find this on Amazon, 2874 02:52:38.319 --> 02:52:39.840 I guess is the best place that they can find 2875 02:52:39.879 --> 02:52:44.280 it looking for the title of this and it is. 2876 02:52:45.200 --> 02:52:48.000 You know, it is something that I think we all 2877 02:52:48.000 --> 02:52:51.760 need to think about how we're going to operate the 2878 02:52:51.959 --> 02:52:54.520 effects that this technology is having on our brains in 2879 02:52:54.559 --> 02:52:56.159 the twenty first century. And that is the title of 2880 02:52:56.200 --> 02:53:00.680 the book. The twenty first Century Brain by Richard rest Tack. 2881 02:53:00.799 --> 02:53:04.120 Thank you very much, doctor rest Thank you, appreciate you 2882 02:53:04.159 --> 02:53:07.799 coming on. Enjoyed a thank you, a very interesting conversation. 2883 02:53:07.879 --> 02:53:09.680 Thank you. Have a good day. Folks are gonna take 2884 02:53:09.680 --> 02:53:12.440 a quick break and we will be right back. 2885 02:54:57.239 --> 02:54:59.600 You're listening to the David Night Show. 2886 02:55:02.159 --> 02:55:05.239 Welcome back. And I've had a lot of comments. I 2887 02:55:05.280 --> 02:55:09.120 don't want to get to these. I knew before I 2888 02:55:09.120 --> 02:55:11.040 brought him in that he was I didn't think he 2889 02:55:11.079 --> 02:55:13.360 was gonna be that focused on climate change. I really 2890 02:55:13.399 --> 02:55:15.760 wanted to talk to him about the other issues that 2891 02:55:15.799 --> 02:55:20.799 were there. But yeah, we had a lot of comments 2892 02:55:20.840 --> 02:55:25.639 about that. As a matter of fact, Land said, is 2893 02:55:25.959 --> 02:55:28.840 this thing about the cheese stuff in global warming connections? 2894 02:55:28.959 --> 02:55:33.399 That so they can try to tax the cheese. So 2895 02:55:33.520 --> 02:55:35.399 I guess the question is who stole the cheese? Right? 2896 02:55:36.159 --> 02:55:38.200 These people are trying to steal our cheese all the time. 2897 02:55:38.239 --> 02:55:41.639 But we do have an update, by the way, and 2898 02:55:43.559 --> 02:55:47.840 this is some comments from the telegram chat. Paul McCloud said, 2899 02:55:47.840 --> 02:55:49.600 I'm asking each and every one of you to send 2900 02:55:49.600 --> 02:55:52.840 prayers in my direction for specific reason that I cannot 2901 02:55:52.840 --> 02:55:57.040 disclose the moment by the pricking of my thumbs. Something 2902 02:55:57.079 --> 02:56:00.440 wicked this way comes, so they sent that. Just pass 2903 02:56:00.520 --> 02:56:02.959 that along to you. That's for Paul McLeod, who is 2904 02:56:03.000 --> 02:56:05.799 asking for prayer and for the love of the road. 2905 02:56:06.239 --> 02:56:08.840 Ryan has given us an update on his dad's surgery. 2906 02:56:08.879 --> 02:56:11.959 He said, dad surgery is done afternoon yesterday. It went 2907 02:56:12.000 --> 02:56:16.360 well and they eliminated all seven blockages. Wow, had to 2908 02:56:16.399 --> 02:56:18.200 take veins from of the parts of the body to 2909 02:56:18.280 --> 02:56:21.000 go around some of them. Though. He should be home 2910 02:56:21.200 --> 02:56:24.079 by Saturday. He said, sorry to hear about Clyde. Lewis 2911 02:56:24.079 --> 02:56:26.440 glad he's got a loyal base that is helping him 2912 02:56:26.520 --> 02:56:31.879 with GoFundMe. Yes, and so I'm glad that things are 2913 02:56:31.920 --> 02:56:34.399 going well for your dad, Ryan. I hope it continues 2914 02:56:34.440 --> 02:56:36.600 to go that way. We'll continue to pray about that. 2915 02:56:37.040 --> 02:56:40.399 And let me get some of your comments. Here O 2916 02:56:40.520 --> 02:56:42.799 comes Razors. Not what people think it is. It states 2917 02:56:42.879 --> 02:56:46.440 that the explanation with the least number of assumptions is 2918 02:56:46.559 --> 02:56:49.559 likely to be correct, not the simplest explanation is likely 2919 02:56:49.639 --> 02:56:54.920 to be correct. That's from Greg Hume. One one that's fine, yes, 2920 02:56:54.920 --> 02:56:57.719 and he says, oh for let's see this is I'm Marty. 2921 02:56:57.760 --> 02:57:02.120 He says come on, most wildfire are urson, not global warming. 2922 02:57:02.280 --> 02:57:04.920 I agree with that. I agree with that, and you 2923 02:57:05.000 --> 02:57:09.600 all know that I'm not. I'm not buying into global warming. 2924 02:57:10.000 --> 02:57:14.360 And he began by talking about how they were manipulating 2925 02:57:14.399 --> 02:57:17.399 the data at the Indian stations to try to minimize 2926 02:57:17.440 --> 02:57:23.200 the pollution that was there and to lower the temperature. 2927 02:57:24.000 --> 02:57:27.639 But typically government's doing just the opposite. And it was 2928 02:57:27.680 --> 02:57:31.559 a climate change crowd, the global warming crowd, that gave 2929 02:57:31.719 --> 02:57:36.399 India the license to have as cheap and dirty A 2930 02:57:36.479 --> 02:57:39.520 power plants as possible. So you might want to start 2931 02:57:39.559 --> 02:57:42.879 with what the government policy has been towards their mcguffin 2932 02:57:43.120 --> 02:57:46.799 of climate change. That's the reason they have that kind 2933 02:57:47.000 --> 02:57:49.280 of pollution that's there. And of course that was why 2934 02:57:50.399 --> 02:57:55.239 Nixon unconstitutionally created the Environmental Protection Agency. There's nothing in 2935 02:57:55.520 --> 02:57:57.399 the constitution that says that it's the role of the 2936 02:57:57.399 --> 02:58:01.159 federal government to protect the environment. And they did it 2937 02:58:01.239 --> 02:58:04.520 because of pollution. They said, we got some polluted sites 2938 02:58:04.559 --> 02:58:07.239 that are so big, we don't have the money to 2939 02:58:07.280 --> 02:58:09.559 address them locally or state level, so let's do it 2940 02:58:09.639 --> 02:58:12.399 at the federal level. And so they had their super 2941 02:58:12.440 --> 02:58:16.840 fun clean up thing, and then they metastasized from pollution 2942 02:58:17.719 --> 02:58:21.479 to telling us what kind of cars we could have 2943 02:58:21.959 --> 02:58:27.040 and mission control with that. So again it's mission creeper. 2944 02:58:27.040 --> 02:58:28.600 I guess we could say emission creep. 2945 02:58:29.600 --> 02:58:32.879 Though in the case of the Indian testing stations, I 2946 02:58:32.920 --> 02:58:36.360 believe he was referring to air quality with the massive 2947 02:58:36.399 --> 02:58:39.639 amounts of air pollution they have in these cities, yeah, 2948 02:58:39.719 --> 02:58:43.159 and spraying it. I believe he was implying that you 2949 02:58:43.600 --> 02:58:46.799 clean up the air, which in that instance I would agree. 2950 02:58:47.440 --> 02:58:51.360 Yeah, you find interestingly enough, you know, and the two 2951 02:58:51.680 --> 02:58:54.959 most populist countries, China and India, where they have said 2952 02:58:55.000 --> 02:58:58.639 don't worry about cleaning up the pollution from your factories 2953 02:58:58.840 --> 02:59:02.840 or your power stations, do whatever you want, right, they 2954 02:59:02.879 --> 02:59:05.799 also have the worst air pollution. Wu han, It's one 2955 02:59:05.840 --> 02:59:10.840 of the worst places for air pollution. So real. Octospook 2956 02:59:10.879 --> 02:59:13.319 says he's correct about one thing. The money around global 2957 02:59:13.319 --> 02:59:15.799 warming will buy the truth before it can be muttered. 2958 02:59:15.840 --> 02:59:19.799 That's right. Money problem and a gigantic government. Yeah, we 2959 02:59:19.840 --> 02:59:23.399 can our head around the whole issue. I think all 2960 02:59:23.440 --> 02:59:25.920 the little spaghetti strings, when you keep pulling them all out, 2961 02:59:25.959 --> 02:59:29.520 you'll find the government, and you'll find human nature. In 2962 02:59:29.639 --> 02:59:33.760 terms of the greed for power and for money. That 2963 02:59:33.959 --> 02:59:37.200 is the common spaghetti thread that ties all this stuff together, 2964 02:59:37.719 --> 02:59:40.680 and that's how we keep our distance from this. But 2965 02:59:40.920 --> 02:59:43.000 I think the real key thing take away from me 2966 02:59:43.079 --> 02:59:46.159 from that interview was the key thing is the connections. 2967 02:59:46.600 --> 02:59:49.760 Our brain works on connections. Our brain works best with connections. 2968 02:59:50.040 --> 02:59:55.040 Connections with other people expand our mind, expand our universe. 2969 02:59:55.200 --> 02:59:58.520 And it's that person to person connection that is so 2970 02:59:58.559 --> 03:00:01.520 difficult for us to maintain owing today, that is so 2971 03:00:01.639 --> 03:00:04.120 vital for us our survival. Thank you for joining us. 2972 03:00:04.120 --> 03:00:20.600 Have a good day. The common man, they created common Core. 2973 03:00:20.760 --> 03:00:24.159 They've dumbed down our children. They created common past, track 2974 03:00:24.280 --> 03:00:27.760 and control us their Commons project to make sure the 2975 03:00:27.799 --> 03:00:33.959 commoners own nothing and the communist future. They see the 2976 03:00:34.000 --> 03:00:38.959 common man as simple, unsophisticated ordinary. But each of us 2977 03:00:39.040 --> 03:00:42.559 has worth and dignity created in the image of God. 2978 03:00:44.799 --> 03:00:47.399 That is what we have in common. That is what 2979 03:00:47.440 --> 03:00:53.559 they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. 2980 03:00:54.360 --> 03:00:57.440 They desire to know everything about us, while they hide 2981 03:00:57.559 --> 03:01:01.680 everything from us. It's time to turn that around and 2982 03:01:01.799 --> 03:01:05.959 expose what they want to hide. Please share the information 2983 03:01:06.040 --> 03:01:09.719 and links you'll find at The Davidnightshow dot com. Thank 2984 03:01:09.760 --> 03:01:17.920 you for listening, thank you for sharing.
