As I just mentioned, the Pope 14 00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.480 has died. The Vatican announced the death of Pope Francis 15 00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:08.280 early this morning, after he made a surprise appearance from 16 00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:11.920 the balcony of Saint Peter's Basilica on Easter Sunday. Pope 17 00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:14.840 Francis was eighty eight. ABC's Jim Ryan's going to join 18 00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:16.959 us at five point thirty five with the latest.

Several trees 25 00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.799 in downtown LA have been cut down, apparently by vandals 26 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:46.760 using chainsaws. The trees were cut down on several streets 27 00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:49.359 over the weekend. LA Mayor Bass's office as the city's 28 00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:51.840 trying to figure out who did it, assess the damage, 29 00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.959 and get new trees planted quickly. Also coming up on 30 00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:58.319 wake Up Call, the US and Iran have held another 31 00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.400 round of talks. ABC's Jordana Miller's going to tell us 32 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:03.760 if they made any progress on a deal to prevent 33 00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:07.079 Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.

And here's one 37 00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:19.120 for you. Ever wonder if the future is going to 38 00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:23.159 be like a Terminator or the last of Us, or 39 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:26.400 is it going to be more like Meet the Robinsons. Well, 40 00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:29.479 we're going to be talking with an author and futurist, 41 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.479 Kevin Sirilli. That's coming up at five point twenty. Looking 42 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.560 forward to that, let's get started with some of the 43 00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:45.719 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 44 00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:49.240 Bells have told across Rome following news from the Vatican 45 00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:52.960 that Pope Francis has died. He was last seen yesterday 46 00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.840 on Easter Sunday, blessing the faithful from the balcony of 47 00:02:55.879 --> 00:02:59.840 Saint Peter's Basilica and driving in an open car through 48 00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:03.680 the assembled crowd in Saint Peter Square. Father James Martin 49 00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:05.960 says there is a lot of sadness. 50 00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:08.280 Today but also great till gratitude for all he was 51 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:13.120 able to accomplish, and then also this understanding of how 52 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:15.800 hard he pushed himself, particularly at the end. This was 53 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.080 a very holy man and a very hard worker. 54 00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:21.120 At the same time, the Pope spent more than a 55 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.520 month in the hospital earlier this year because of respiratory problems. 56 00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:28.280 He had double pneumonia. Pope Francis was eighty eight. Vice 57 00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:32.159 President Vance met with the Pope at the Vatican yesterday. 58 00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:35.319 Bossion as, how are you find yourself out to her? 59 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:35.439 There? 60 00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:38.199 Ethic you can have mister to your father Vanci's. His 61 00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:40.680 heart goes out to the millions of Christians around the 62 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:44.199 world who loved the pope. French President and Menuel Montcralin 63 00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.159 says Francis always sided with the most vulnerable and the 64 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:50.159 most fragile, and said a great pain would be felt 65 00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:54.159 in France and around the world. Israeli President Isaac Herzog 66 00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:57.639 called Francis a man of deep faith and boundless compassion 67 00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.479 who fostered ties with the Jewish war world. La Mayor 68 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.639 Bass is about to break down her budget plan for 69 00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:04.039 the city. 70 00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:06.680 Maribas is set to deliver her State of the City address, 71 00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:09.039 where she's expected to outline her plan to tackle a 72 00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:12.840 nearly one billion dollar budget shortfall. She'll also unveil her 73 00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.919 twenty twenty five twenty twenty six budget, which may include 74 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:19.120 laying off more than fifteen hundred city workers and cutting 75 00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:22.920 vacant jobs. The city faces mounting challenges from slowed housing 76 00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.240 construction and a struggling entertainment industry to fall out from 77 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:29.720 the Palisades fire. Heatherbrooker KAFI News. 78 00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:31.920 We'll have the details on the state of the city 79 00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:35.439 addressed throughout the day right here. On KFID space supposed 80 00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:38.160 to happen about noon. Police have shot and killed a 81 00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:40.879 man who appeared to have shot at a police helicopter 82 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:46.279 in Resita. LAPD Sergeant Bruce Borihan says officers responding to 83 00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:49.480 an assault with a deadly weapon call yesterday run. 84 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.000 Into this apartment complex behind us here on Victory Boulevard. 85 00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.519 Sometime in that when the suspect was in that apartment complex, 86 00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:58.959 the airship was overhead and reported that that suspect actually 87 00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:01.079 fire appeared to fire at leadership. 88 00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:03.560 Police confronted the man in the rear alley of the 89 00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:07.000 apartment complex a short time later. That's when the shooting happened. 90 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:12.000 Time to say good morning too. ABC's jordonah Miller, Good morning, John, Jordana. 91 00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:14.480 I'm curious we're going to be talking about Iran in 92 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:18.759 the US, but is there any response from Israel on 93 00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.279 the passing of Pope Francis this morning? 94 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:28.240 Well, Israeli officials from the president on down are putting 95 00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:33.920 out statements, you know, you know, wish saying they're expressing 96 00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:37.800 their condolences over the death of the Pope. The President 97 00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:41.319 of Israel, Isaac Hert Hertzog called him, you know, a 98 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:44.879 great man who dedicated his life to the poor, to 99 00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:53.079 the needy, and to really developing interfaith relationships with Jews 100 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.480 and other religious minorities. 101 00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:58.240 Remember the community. 102 00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:02.560 Here, the Christian community here in in Jerusalem, the Catholic 103 00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:06.399 community is very small, and it's been dwindling for a 104 00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:09.720 few decades, and that has made it ever more reliant 105 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:13.639 on Rome and the Pope and the tension from the 106 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.600 from the Vatican. So they are there's a lot of 107 00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:21.680 grief from local clergy, the representatives of the Vatican, as 108 00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:24.360 well as the faithful here. So it's a somber day 109 00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:26.160 for Jerusalem, no doubt. 110 00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.680 Okay, all right, thanks for that update, Jardana. Okay, so 111 00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.920 the reason that we're talking this morning was because Iran 112 00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:36.439 and the US have held another round of talks on 113 00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:42.360 Iran's nuclear program. Where were the talks and did anything 114 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:44.879 come out of them? 115 00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:46.560 The talks were held in Rome. 116 00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:50.120 We don't know a lot of the details, but we 117 00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:53.800 do know that the United States and Aron are saying 118 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:58.560 that progress was made. There are already h you know, 119 00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:04.439 intentions to talk again in about another week. And those 120 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:09.319 are all very good signs because remember before before these 121 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.839 talks began, just a couple of weeks ago, Iran was 122 00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:15.920 really flip flopping on whether they would actually be interested 123 00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.040 in talks, right, And there were semantics about whether these 124 00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:23.639 were direct talks, whether they were indirect talks. Because Oman 125 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:26.680 is there also as a mediator. I don't think that 126 00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.399 matters as much as the fact that the sides are 127 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:32.720 talking and now they say they're going to work on 128 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:37.920 carving out a framework for this deal. We know what 129 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.600 some of the big issues are going to be, even 130 00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:43.480 though we don't know the details. So, for example, will 131 00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:48.199 President Trump and the United States give a Ron a 132 00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:54.120 certain percentage to which they can enrich uranium? Right under 133 00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.600 the former deal with President Obama they could enrich just 134 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:01.079 over three percent, right, Will that be the case again 135 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:07.399 or will some say geranium at all? And what will 136 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.360 happen to the There's a lot of enriched material up 137 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.319 to sixty percent, right that Aron did in kind of 138 00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:17.560 defiance of the international community, which is just a step 139 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:21.319 away from weaponized levels around ninety percent. What's going to 140 00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.680 happen to all of that in rich uranium? Is it 141 00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:25.360 going to be destroyed? Is it going to be given 142 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:26.519 to a third party? 143 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:26.839 Right? 144 00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:31.480 Another big question is the length of this deal. Will 145 00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:34.279 it be in place for twenty years, twenty five years, 146 00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:37.799 thirty years. We know President Trump and others were very 147 00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:42.240 critical of what many considered the kind of short sunset 148 00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:44.879 clauses on the Obama deal. You know that it would 149 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:47.240 have been in place for just ten years, twelve years, 150 00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:50.879 thirteen years. So how long this deal will be you know, 151 00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:56.159 will be you know, in force. That's another issue that 152 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:57.080 we'll be discussed. 153 00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:02.960 Sounds like they have a lot, a lot to work out, right. 154 00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:03.600 And it's not. 155 00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:04.039 I don't. 156 00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:06.440 I don't think it's a deal that is going to 157 00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:09.320 be hammered out, you know, in a month. You know, 158 00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:10.559 it's going to take some time. 159 00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.000 Yeah. And do they have plans to meet again? 160 00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:15.080 They do. 161 00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:18.799 The plan is to meet again, I think this coming weekend, 162 00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:22.720 though we're not sure what the where the location is. 163 00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:27.519 It was you know again the last round was in Rome, 164 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:33.519 but Death of thely to be Rome again. But we'll 165 00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.039 we'll have to see. I think we have to recognize 166 00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:39.879 that Iran is in a very vulnerable and weak position 167 00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:43.159 and so despite all of their threats, and we're not 168 00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:44.759 going to do this, and we're not going to do that. 169 00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:48.159 And we'll retaliate to see Americans bomb US. You know, 170 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.440 Iran really there, they have to negotiate with the United 171 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.960 States if they want the regime, the Iranian regime led 172 00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:00.799 by the Supreme Leader, to survive, because otherwise they're really 173 00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.919 putting the regime at risk, right if there's an attack 174 00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:08.679 or really tight sanctions that bring the economy down. I mean, 175 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:10.919 Ron has its back against the wall. 176 00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:14.159 Okay, all right, well we will be watching. Thank you 177 00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:17.279 for giving us that insight, so we know what they're 178 00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.120 at least starting to talk about. And we'll be following 179 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.720 this one, all right, jordanah Miller, thank you so much. 180 00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:23.279 Namy. 181 00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:25.279 All right, take care. Let's get back to some of 182 00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:27.519 the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. 183 00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:30.919 The Supreme Court has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from 184 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:36.159 deporting more Venezuelans, it says are criminal gang members. Hundreds 185 00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:39.799 of men from Venezuela and El Salvador have already been deported, 186 00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:44.080 including Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who the government says was deported 187 00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:47.360 by mistake, but one of his tattoos is gang related. 188 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:50.559 Borders are Tom Holman says it's a legitimate claim. 189 00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:51.919 You can't ignore tattoo. 190 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.519 That's one more factor that leads you to believe maybe 191 00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:56.159 the gang member. 192 00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.000 It's just not based on tattoos. It's based on a 193 00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:00.200 lot of other things, but tattoos. 194 00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:03.960 Many Wellman says, no one is removed just because of 195 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:07.480 a tattoo, so there is more to it. Democrats are 196 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:10.600 calling for the resignation of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following 197 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:13.759 reports of a second chat on the Signal app where 198 00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.080 sensitive information was discussed. ABC's Lewis Martinez says this one 199 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:20.879 included flight schedules for the fighter jets involved in a 200 00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:23.159 military attack against the Huties in Yemen. 201 00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.919 We've confirmed from two people familiar with the chat that yes, 202 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:29.679 the Pete Hegseth actually used his personal phone to set 203 00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:33.799 up this signal chat originally during the confirmation process. It 204 00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:36.440 included some family members like his wife, like his brother 205 00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:39.519 who works out the Penagon, and his personal attorney who 206 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:40.879 now works at the Pentagon as well. 207 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:44.360 The White has dismissed the report yesterday as a non story, 208 00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:48.440 insisting that no classified information was shared. Charles wrapping up 209 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:51.120 in Arizona in a conspiracy case against a woman already 210 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:54.000 convicted along with her husband of killing her two children 211 00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:58.120 in Idaho. Laurie Valo dabl is on trial, this time 212 00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:02.519 for allegedly conspiring to mur or her estranged husband. ABC's 213 00:12:02.759 --> 00:12:06.080 Jorene Shaw says day Bell's expected to rest her case 214 00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:07.960 today without calling any witnesses. 215 00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:11.360 Mari has maintained she is not guilty, instead claiming her 216 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:15.559 brother Alex killed Charles Valow in self defense. Alex not 217 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:17.919 around to tell his version of the story because he 218 00:12:17.960 --> 00:12:20.440 passed away shortly after from natural causes. 219 00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:24.120 Dabell is acting as her own attorney. Closing arguments are 220 00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:29.000 expected this week. Oakland has a new mayor elect. Former 221 00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:33.039 Congresswoman Barbara Lee has defeated former Oakland City council member 222 00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:36.559 Lauren Taylor, who conceded the race on Saturday. Seventy eight 223 00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:38.960 year old Li says she's grateful for her support. 224 00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:40.600 Thank you first of. 225 00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:45.240 All, and we love Oakland right, We love in Oakland right. 226 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:49.039 Lee takes the job after the recall of former Oakland 227 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:54.000 mayor Sheng Tao, who faces federal corruption charges. Okay, so, 228 00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:57.320 girls in space just not going away. Katy Perry and 229 00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:01.000 Lauren Sanchez and Gail King and a few others all 230 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:03.279 went up and did their space thing and then talked 231 00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:05.799 about how they are changing the world with their with 232 00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:10.320 their three minutes of weightlessness backlash, and yeah, the backlash 233 00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:12.000 isn't going away. I thought, you know, it's gonna be 234 00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:14.240 kind of flame out really quickly. But then I was 235 00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:16.960 on Instagram and found this. 236 00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:20.759 Tell me, did you guys have a lot of fun? 237 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:26.080 Do you finally realize and understand how much of haya 238 00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:28.759 Old Chicks careers off? 239 00:13:28.759 --> 00:13:29.080 Fade? 240 00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:30.200 Cantie? 241 00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:31.559 How completely? 242 00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:32.879 Don't you are. 243 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:35.679 Too much too hot? 244 00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:37.080 Just moart out of. 245 00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:45.360 Celebrities folk love yourself, nobody came, nobody care. 246 00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.320 It goes on for a lot longer than that. And 247 00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:52.039 I don't think he needed to make the comment about 248 00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:55.799 the Old chicksen but because I think Katy Perry's still 249 00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:59.480 kind of rocking it right right, Okay? Anyway, Uh, it's 250 00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:03.159 probably it fade away. Yeah, it hasn't yet. In his 251 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:05.919 last appearance to the faithful, Pope Francis waved to the 252 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.600 crowd from the balcony of Saint Peter's Basilica. The Pope 253 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.399 gave the crowd his blessing and wish them happy Easter. 254 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:15.799 The Vatican announced the Pope's passing early this morning, Pope 255 00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:19.320 Francis was eighty eight. Senator Chris Van Hollins's all Americans 256 00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:21.919 are threatened if the deportation of a man living in 257 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:25.879 Maryland is allowed to stand show. Hey, Otani has rejoined 258 00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:29.120 the team after a brief paternity leave. The Dodgers superstar 259 00:14:29.159 --> 00:14:32.519 and his wife Welcome to baby Girl. On Friday. Otani 260 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:34.960 went over three in his return yesterday, with walking a 261 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:38.720 strikeout in the Dodgers one nothing win over Texas. Let's 262 00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:43.840 say good morning now to author and futurist Kevin Surially. 263 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:48.000 Good morning, Kevin, Hey, thanks for having me. How's your 264 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:49.240 future going these days? 265 00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:57.320 Well, you're gonna tell us. 266 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:54.639 Are you? 267 00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:58.799 Are you? Are you polite to your artificial intelligence? When 268 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:00.440 you talked to Siri and elect so, do you say 269 00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:01.120 please and thank you? 270 00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:04.919 I do not have a good relationship with Siri. 271 00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:08.080 Do you want to talk about it? Why not? What's 272 00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:09.120 going on with you in Siri? 273 00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:13.440 Well, she and I are not on speaking terms because 274 00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:15.919 I used to ask your questions and she always gave 275 00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.240 me stupid answers, and so I just don't talk to her. 276 00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:23.360 Alexa and well, I respect that you guys are fine. Okay, 277 00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:26.480 So sixty seven percent of Americans. And I write about 278 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:28.759 this on me to Future, about subsec dot com. But 279 00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:32.000 sixty seven percent of Americans say that they are polite 280 00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:35.840 to their artificial intelligence. Now why because some folks are 281 00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:37.399 just doing it because they think that they should be 282 00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:40.879 nice to AI and it's good manners cultural, I guess. 283 00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:42.759 But the others are in the back of their mind 284 00:15:42.799 --> 00:15:45.679 they're concerned about like a robot uprising that somehow if 285 00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:49.279 AI comes back or is able to beat humans, that 286 00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:51.759 they're going to somehow. Remember who said please and who 287 00:15:51.759 --> 00:15:54.480 said thank you? But Sam Altman, he's the CEO of 288 00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:58.039 Open AI with Jones Chatchipt, he said, stop being so 289 00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:02.639 polite to our official intelligence. Stop it because it's costing 290 00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:07.200 tens of millions of dollars in electricity. So all of 291 00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:10.679 these Americans who are writing these very nice questions or 292 00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.480 asking very nice questions, the brain of AI is just saying, 293 00:16:14.960 --> 00:16:19.440 get to the point. Already, artificial intelligence is run on electricity, 294 00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:23.000 and these data centers that America is building all across 295 00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:26.279 the country is really taking shape, and a lot of 296 00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:28.919 its power by nuclear energy, by the way. But these 297 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:32.279 data centers, we're in the middle of an electrical revolution 298 00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:36.360 because of how much Americans are now relying on artificial intelligence. 299 00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:37.720 So stop saying please and thank you. 300 00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:40.440 Okay, because stop saying please and thank you or you're 301 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:42.879 going to have blackouts. 302 00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:45.840 Correct. Yeah, well that's the very you know, exactly. Yeah, 303 00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.879 that's the extreme version of it. And I think when 304 00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:53.600 you look at just from a modern standpoint and where 305 00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:57.679 this is all headed the humanoid robotic space, which of 306 00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:01.159 course is the next competition between the United States and 307 00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:04.240 China and the digital frontier. Over the weekend, there were 308 00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:10.079 twenty one humanoid robots that ran in the Beijing half marathon, 309 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:13.200 but only six of them finished the time. The fastest 310 00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:16.960 robot finished the half marathon in two hours and forty minutes, which, 311 00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:19.319 by the way, is very slow. The average age of 312 00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.960 a seventy year old running half marathon is two hours 313 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.440 and forty minutes, so it's not that fast. But I 314 00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:28.039 think this is cheating. And I don't know how you 315 00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:33.079 feel about this, amy, but they changed their battery three times, 316 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:35.000 So you don't get to change your battery when you 317 00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:37.519 run a half marathon if you're a human let alone 318 00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:40.400 takes steroids. So why is it that a humanoid robot 319 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:43.440 gets to change their battery and somehow still get to finish. 320 00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:46.599 I think the Chinese Communist Party is cheating with these robots. 321 00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.839 Okay, I want to know about the ones that didn't finish. 322 00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:52.200 Did they just run out of gas, juice, whatever? Or 323 00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:53.559 do they follow over what happened? 324 00:17:53.640 --> 00:17:56.559 Just fell out and collapse? Can you imagine they sell 325 00:17:56.640 --> 00:17:58.920 over busted, thud dead? 326 00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:04.160 Okay? So, Kevin, because you're a futures so you study 327 00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:07.279 things that are going to happen. And I was Kno 328 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:10.279 brought us back with music from Back to the Future, 329 00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:13.480 and I was kind of laughing about that because all 330 00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:17.519 this stuff that they did in nineteen eighty whatever, and 331 00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:19.839 when they said, here, we're in the future in twenty 332 00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:21.799 twenty five, we actually have some of that stuff now. 333 00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:25.799 It's pretty cool, and I think you're absolutely correct. I mean, 334 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:27.960 I'm a millennial and I'm a part of the last 335 00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:30.720 generation that can remember life before the Internet. Gen Z 336 00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:34.119 is the last generation that can remember life before artificial intelligence. 337 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:37.839 Folks that are born today are candidly the last generation 338 00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.000 that we'll remember life before quantum computing, which is going 339 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.200 to make AI look like a calculator from your TI 340 00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:49.759 eighty three and geometry class in high school. But I 341 00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:52.960 interviewed Major General Gagnad, who was one of the top 342 00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:55.119 generals at the United States Space Force. I interviewed them 343 00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:57.480 last month at the National Press Club, and I said, 344 00:18:57.640 --> 00:19:00.279 what do you want folks to know about outer Spacebviously, 345 00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:03.200 this is before Katie Perry's eleven minute flight with Gail 346 00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:07.400 King up to the space and he said that space 347 00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:11.440 security is national security and economic security. And I really 348 00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:16.279 dug down on that because the average American most folks 349 00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:18.880 don't know this. This will blow your mind. The average American 350 00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:22.680 interacts with space more than two dozen times per. 351 00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:24.559 Day and we don't know about it. 352 00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.440 Right, you don't even know an amy. I mean it's 353 00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:30.400 everything from your phone to your computer, to your emails. 354 00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:33.759 I mean everything is run via the satellites. So protecting 355 00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.799 that space domain is just completely imperative. America of Force 356 00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:40.240 turns two hundred and fifty years old next year, and 357 00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:42.640 I said, where is America General in two hundred and 358 00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:45.319 fifty years from now? He know what he said, beyond 359 00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:48.000 the moon And that just kind of blew my mind 360 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.680 as well, because all of this is headed towards expanding 361 00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:55.039 human presence, not just or beyond planet Earth with the 362 00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:57.240 intention of protecting the planet as well. 363 00:19:57.559 --> 00:19:59.519 Okay, so well we're not going to be around for that, 364 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:03.240 so let's look into our near future. Like what give 365 00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:06.640 us some like some of your predictions of things that 366 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:09.079 we should expect to see in the next ten years. 367 00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:13.079 Well, I think driverless cars. You're already starting to see 368 00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:15.480 that on the road. Have you seen one yet driving 369 00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:16.720 driver less cars? 370 00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:19.480 We have them in La so. 371 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:21.960 Exactly, so I think that's going to be way more common. 372 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:25.119 I think you're going to be seeing space jets that 373 00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:29.000 are able to land and then drive more private the 374 00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:31.240 private aviation space won't look out for that. So if 375 00:20:31.279 --> 00:20:34.240 you are on a private jet, I don't fly private, 376 00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:38.680 but for folks who do, they be able to land 377 00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:41.559 and then drive to their destination. But I also think 378 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.359 speed in slight and speed and train is going to 379 00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:48.319 get a lot faster as well. Hypersonic flight could be 380 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.720 something that comes in our lifetime. Quantum computing in our 381 00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:54.839 lifetime to really be able to solve complex diseases and 382 00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:58.240 find cures. That's something that really interests me. But space, 383 00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:01.759 the space economy, space apply chain, the way that the 384 00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:06.200 chemicals and properties here on planet Earth, and the chemistry 385 00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:09.799 behind making cures for diseases is different than the chemistry 386 00:21:09.839 --> 00:21:13.000 up and outer space. So you're already seeing some health 387 00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:17.319 companies send things up via satellites to cook medicine for 388 00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:20.039 lack of a better analogy, and then it comes back 389 00:21:20.079 --> 00:21:22.559 on Earth and you're able to solve diseases. So that 390 00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:25.240 really is interesting as well, not to mention mining the Moon, 391 00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:30.519 mining Mars, all of that is really happening as we speak. 392 00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:32.640 Okay, So, Kevin, one last question, because I know we 393 00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:35.319 got to let you run, but most movies TV shows 394 00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:38.240 that show the future show a really dystopian future. It 395 00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:39.079 doesn't look great. 396 00:21:39.680 --> 00:21:40.920 Thank Is that all possible? 397 00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:43.480 Or are we going to have a bright future? 398 00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:48.119 Yes, we're absolutely. I mean, listen, I don't know about you, 399 00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.240 but I don't want to live in a world without 400 00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:54.359 the Internet or GPS or uber or my iPhone. So 401 00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:57.440
