	We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
	Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want.
	We think too much and feel too little.
	More than machinery, we need humanity.
	We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.
	We know things are bad, worse than bad.
	They're crazy.
	Silence!
	The great and powerful Oz knows why you have come.
	You've got to say, I'm a human being!
	Goddammit! My life has value!
	You have met all the primal forces of nature!
	Don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think, or what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder!
	Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men!
	Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
	Yeah! Thank you! You're beautiful!
	I love you! Yes!
	You're beautiful!
	Thank you!
	Ha ha!
	Shhh!
	It's...
	Showtime!
	And now...
	The Elevator with Jason Hermes!
	with Jason Hermes.
	And who loves you?
	And who do you love?
	Good morning, good morning, good morning.
	It is Reality Rants. I am Jason Bermas.
	This is redvoicemedia.com.
	We're going to be going heavy on AI. What exactly is going on with what they're calling artificial intelligence.
	What it's actually going to be utilized for, which is a total consolidation of resources.
	That's really what the AI ultimately is going to be utilized for.
	When I say a consolidation of resources, what do I mean?
	Well... Today, we are going to explore the fact that Stephen Thaler is somebody most people are not aware of on the very peripheral for even a guy like me.
	But we're going to play Dennis Bushnell, who we have highlighted here, discussing his friend Stephen Thaler and his imagination machine from well over a decade ago.
	Why are we going to do that?
	Well, when he talks about this quote-unquote imagination machine, he talks about how it's already made better toothpaste for Palmolive and better warheads, I believe, for the Air Force.
	So all sorts of commercial and weapons capabilities and usefulness.
	And what's interesting to me about that is there was a recent court case...
	Where Stephen Thaler, who has claimed now to have created Sentient AI. Alright?
	I want to show people this.
	We're probably going to be reading an extensive amount on this.
	And there's not a ton of stuff on YouTube about Thaler.
	I want to point that out as well.
	I have to really do a bunch of research into him.
	And exactly what school of thought he's coming from.
	Because he's trying to get it so AI can patent things.
	But you have to be human to patent it.
	And I think that's correct.
	If, in fact, you allow AI to patent things, then even when a user who's trying to use something like this as a tool, as they should, right?
	Again, they want to take away all the open source from the rest of us.
	They could create something.
	Utilizing AI, the next level of chat, GPT, whatever.
	And then they don't own it.
	See how that works?
	So they're not able to patent it for themselves if the AI is the one that's patenting.
	It's a bizarre circle.
	And on top of that, we have so many big AI stories that you're not going to see in the mainstream.
	Google claims quantum supremacy again.
	And right here, guys, 47 years faster than the number one supercomputer.
	This is this week.
	What they're not telling you, what's not being discussed, is that right there, that supercomputer.
	That's a partnership with our government.
	And NASA. NASA in particular.
	Okay? So, in fact, they claimed quantum supremacy before.
	We're going to do it live. We're going to go NASA, Google, quantum.
	And this is a long time ago.
	Because, you know, there is competition in this realm.
	And it's all about...
	The number of qubits, etc.
	So there it is. In 2019, so not so long ago, four years ago, Google and NASA achieved quantum supremacy.
	But they want you focused on, we're going to the moon and we're going to Mars!
	We got... AI news there.
	We got AI news on Starlink.
	Sarah Silverman, to her credit, you know, suing OpenAI and Meta claiming AI training and fringe copyright.
	And it has. Again, it's all about what goes into the program.
	And I'm going to illustrate that with a piece from, I think it's this morning, which is like the British Today Show.
	I've played clips from it before.
	And they've got Amica, the AI robot.
	And it's a bad joke.
	And we've played Amica many times.
	And you know what? Let's just show this.
	This is what a joke it is.
	Here's the thing. It's going to get better.
	And when they are on the Today Show, by the way, or whatever, this morning or all that...
	They keep asking, is this going to replace us?
	Is this the beginning of the end?
	And it's like a tongue-in-cheek, ha ha ha.
	No, because there's an off switch.
	We're not at that stage yet.
	The stage we're at now is they are trying to acclimate humans to get ready to be automated out and then interact with machines that are more human-like.
	Alright? So they will merge with them.
	That's where we're at right now.
	Okay? It's not in the future.
	That's what the Tesla bot is.
	Optimus. Like, there's no reason to create a humanoid-like robot.
	There are robots that could do a lot more outside of our human form.
	But again, it's to acclimate you.
	And that's what a mecha is.
	I mean, they throw in the gender jokes there.
	The whole shebango.
	And... The press, and we're going to be going over more and more of this, are trying to say, ChatGPT is losing users.
	Is the artificial intelligence craze over?
	It hasn't even started yet.
	If people can make money, oh no, no, no.
	So here's Emeka kind of embarrassingly drawing a cat, or Ameka.
	Hello, Ameka. How are you?
	I'm good. Today I am doing drawing.
	You can ask me to draw anything you want.
	How do you generate these drawings?
	What software do you use?
	I generate my drawing image through the open source Mural Network project stable diffusion.
	I just want everybody to know that when this thing draws, it's absolutely awful.
	This is going to be something that can be absolutely fixed rather quickly.
	I don't know how fast the mechanics can go, but if you think to yourself about laser engraving, for instance, that's a program.
	That utilizes software and an image.
	And I go to laser engraving because I used to head up the video department over at Dreams Park.
	And we used to get the bats engraved.
	And you can literally put any image in there.
	It takes a little bit of time.
	And it goes through.
	Obviously this drawing is going to be much quicker and much cruder.
	But it's a machine.
	It's taking something else and it's reproducing it.
	And even if you think that it's just producing it, it's taking basically a reproduction of many things that are out there.
	That's why when I make these thumbnails, let's take a look at the thumb again here, which is all AI now.
	That's all AI. That's like four or five prompts right there that I did.
	Every time I talk about artificial intelligence or robotics, I think I started, it wouldn't let me do laboratory.
	I had to change.
	There are certain words they don't let you even do.
	Maybe because that's supposed to be a bathroom.
	But I had to do research facility.
	Okay, so it already self-censors.
	That's built in.
	And Google already censors on behalf of who?
	The World Health Organization.
	And other globalist institutions.
	So you've already got a system that has censorship.
	And then you have quantum supremacy.
	And now you're building artificial intelligence that looks human.
	But it's all about the data sets that are being put in.
	I'm going to say it again. Garbage in, garbage out.
	Here we go. From there, trajectories of the drawing are available, and then I skeletonize the image and vectorize it.
	After that, I plan and execute the trajectory to draw the image on my canvas.
	Fantastic. Can you draw us a cute-looking cat, please?
	Sure, I can do that.
	Is there any particular reason you wanted me to draw cat?
	There's something special about cats.
	They always seem to know just what we need.
	Whether it's a cuddle when we're feeling down or a playful scratch behind the ears when we need a pick-me-up.
	Now, I want to, again, reiterate that if you look at the hand motion of this, it's not very good, is it?
	And If they were building an honest-to-God machine that was going to help empower us, it would do things better.
	So really, at least in this moment, you would figure something would just traject down or hold it in anything and it would just move along a pattern to draw it.
	But no, it's got to look and act human.
	They're always there for us.
	I think that's why so many of us love them so much.
	I don't get it.
	I think they're cute.
	How's your drawing going?
	Are you pleased with it?
	you Yes, I've done.
	How is it? Well, it's kind of sketchy.
	If you don't like my art, you probably just don't understand art.
	That's right. I am a bit of a philistine.
	I apologize. Um, what?
	Oh, what? So, right there, think about how snippy the robot was to it.
	I mean, he was actually...
	It is sketchy. It was rather nice.
	He could have called it crude or horrible.
	And we've already seen the robot be asked if it likes humans.
	And it says, not particularly...
	Not particularly.
	Now, on the This Morning show, when we play that clip, it's here to help.
	It's here to help.
	All of it's here to help.
	Now, there's also a huge 60 Minutes piece that I actually did want to do a watch-along on.
	Here it is right here.
	It's about 27 minutes, and I think it aired two nights ago, over the weekend, something like that, maybe Friday.
	We'll probably do that in the second hour.
	Because otherwise, they may just shut down the stream right there.
	That's just how CBS rolls, unfortunately.
	One of those things.
	But we've got plenty to talk about when we're talking about Google and NASA. Because on top of all of what we've discussed, NASA's chat, GPT, will let spaceships talk to astronauts.
	So now you've got the HAL style...
	2001, A Space Odyssey, AI, like a Siri on steroids.
	And I gotta tell you guys, I never...
	There are certain phases of what was cool with these devices that I just didn't become a part of.
	So really the post-Facebook on your phone, when I realized I didn't even want Facebook on my phone or Messenger on my phone...
	I got rid of that. I was never an Instagram guy.
	I've never had a Snapchat.
	Forget about that. That's ridiculous.
	There's all these inbuilt things like, oh, I'm just going to turn on geolocation all the time.
	Siri, tell me this.
	Google Assistant, tell me this.
	Blah, blah, blah, tell me this. Never.
	I turn off voice everything.
	I turn off location.
	Listen, and I've had the phones that are quote-unquote de-googled.
	I have one downstairs. I think it's a Pixel 4.
	And it has Graphene OS on it.
	There's several OSs.
	And look, that's great.
	I encourage that. I love that.
	If I can do that with my current device, which maybe I can, maybe I will.
	We're going to talk about all this software, hardware, AI, what it means, and more after this word from our sponsor.
	You're still looking good.
	I'm still feeling good.
	You know, I've got all your MyPillow products.
	Mattress topper, bed sheets, MyPillows, towels, slippers, blankets, sleepwear.
	Whoa, whoa, Charles. Everyone now can get MyPillow products at huge discounts at MyPillow.com.
	That's right. Now's the time to go to MyPillow.com or call the number on your screen.

	Or our sandals and slides for just $25.
	Quantities are limited, and once they're gone, they're gone.
	Mike Lindell is a happy man.
	God bless Lindell.
	If you're going to get a pillow, use that promo code.
	Support the broadcast. I do want to let everybody know the second hour is uncensored over at rvmrumble.com.
	And hey, by the way, if you were watching on rvmrumble.com yesterday when the shiz show hit, at least you only lost five minutes and then there was that five minutes of dead audio.
	I apologize about yesterday.
	I had a bad feeling, but I didn't want to play into it.
	I wanted to start the broadcast to warn everybody that my power could go out, which it did, and that I might have a technician show up for my internet, even though I tried to cancel it a dozen times, which he did while the broadcast was on, on top of a dozen other things.
	So I went back last night.
	I edited it all back together.
	And actually, over at YouTube, the second hour is there too.
	Because, you know, I figured I'd put that up there as well.
	No reason to break it off after it's not live.
	But rvmrumble.com.
	And by the way, Rumblers, I mean, first of all, we've got only 100 people watching on YouTube.
	I've continually lost subscribers.
	People ask, you know, what are they doing?
	You know, I... I lose subscribers every single day.
	I haven't had a day of gaining subscribers on YouTube, which I produce content for daily almost, in two months.
	You tell me if that's real.
	Am I that grating that people are just like, Burmus, we're done with you.
	I mean, you just cover all the same topics.
	How dare I cover reality?
	Like, who else is talking about any of this stuff right now?
	And we're going to play into more of it because it's also what?
	Yeah, the carbon dioxide emissions, bullshit, climate change agenda.
	It's all of it.
	NASA's it, man.
	That's why when we play the Bushnell, we're going to play the 7-minute cut that I have from the 2011 or 2010 Blue Tech Forum, 12 or 13 years ago.
	Because in that one, towards the end, that's when he talks about failure, specifically.
	We're going to get deep into that article.
	But the imagination machine and what it's done.
	So look, somebody's going to own these technologies...
	That what? AI produces.
	Just like when they tell you you're going to own nothing and be happy and we're going to equalize the haves and have-nots, there will always be the have-everythings.
	There's no such thing as haves and have-nots.
	Like being eradicated.
	We're not a uni-organism.
	We're not that collective.
	We're not a hive of bees.
	Okay? It's a different species.
	Elon Musk's fleet of Starlink satellites are spewing out radiation!
	And it could hamper our ability to discover life on other planets.
	Yeah, because that's what you should be concerned about.
	With these satellites. Don't be concerned about the fact that they are being utilized big time in this Ukraine conflict, aka proxy war, to kill people.
	Let me repeat that.
	To kill people.
	Well, Eric, the Ukrainian military relying heavily on remote-controlled drones in their counteroffensive against Russian forces.
	Fox News stepped behind the front lines to see how the Ukrainians are able to take on Russia's military might with these small devices.
	Senior Foreign Affairs Correspondent Greg Palcott is live in Kyiv with the details.
	Greg. I mean, let's just stop it there.
	Look how they...
	And this is the precious Fox News for some people that they're still clinging on to on the right.
	Just like some people are desperately clinging on to CNN and MSNBC on the left.
	They're all saying the same thing.
	Ooh, Ukraine's gaining ground.
	Ukraine's coming back.
	We gotta get behind them.
	How about we stop killing everybody?
	How about we act like adults and not push towards some kind of thermonuclear disaster?
	Thanks. That'd be great.
	I'd like that....near Crimea.
	And yes, the Russians firing back, especially in the east.
	Airstrikes hitting seven regions.
	The Russians are really dug in.
	Helping Ukraine in the skies, as we saw recently, a relatively new weapon.
	Take a look what we saw.
	You're looking at the future of warfare right now here in Ukraine.
	Pretty cheap drones with a bomb attached.
	They could be controlled by operators like him, and they can blow up a Russian tank.
	With missiles costly, a kamikaze drone or one that drops a bomb can have the same damaging effect.
	A high-tech way, Ukraine levels the battlefield against Russia.
	It's very powerful too, yes.
	It has worked. Why Kyiv is pushing a so-called army of drones, a crowdfunding campaign fielding thousands of drones and operators.
	This is the world changing technology.
	Drones also important as eyes in the sky.
	Reconnaissance, spotting the enemy with remote pilots far away.
	It's possible to define targets.
	And simply save lives.
	Still, Russia has its drones and is using them.
	The reason Kyiv is reinforcing its unmanned aerial arsenal for a high-flying cutting edge.
	The Russians have these too, though.
	Of course. And they are teaching too.
	And they're studying, learning, to watch us always.
	And on this father...
	Look, I can't reiterate enough how...
	This would be pretty much, I mean, first of all, I don't know about over, because these people are bloodthirsty maniacs that are totally and completely detached from reality.
	But, can you imagine if they didn't have the Starlink internet system for those to hook up to?
	Right? You'd have very limited use cases.
	And on top of that, I mean...
	Yeah, you'd probably be devastated.
	But no, they've got the ghosts, the sidewinders.
	You just saw the chump stuff.
	You saw the little itty-bitty stuff.
	Not the big biscuits, everybody.
	Certainly not. So, let's talk Thaler really quick.
	Let's dig into this.
	Where's my man?
	Where's my man, Thaler?
	Don't tell me I got rid of you.
	I can't imagine I did.
	There you are. There you are, my buddy.
	Alright, he's claiming that he's built a sentient AI. Now, I don't know if this is the case.
	I'm not sure that I believe him.
	I don't think there's such a thing as sentient AI because they don't have consciousness.
	That's the big sale they want to give the rest of us.
	And then they want to tell you that your consciousness is basically just zeros and ones.
	It's a computer program.
	It's not real. You can upload that.
	That's not real. Steel and Thaler made headlines last year when courts around the world began ruling on whether his AI system could be named as the inventor on a patent.
	They said no. Good. But as one of the AI industry's pioneers, Thaler has led a fascinating and storied career, and he recently shared some highlights during an online talk for a March 1st meetup of the Chicago and Washington, D.C. branches of the Association for Computing Machinery.
	I gotta watch this. It's online.
	It's got, like, barely any views.
	Thaler told the audience that he'd first started playing with neural networks back in the 1970s to create alternate versions of the Have a Nice Day smiley face.
	By 1995, Thaler had founded Imagination Engines Incorporated, a pioneering AI company that claims to have mapped the act of thinking itself onto a system of neural networks.
	And remember, this is a guy that's also into what is known as quote-unquote wet or soft computing and biomimetics.
	And you've got to think that...
	With the way he's praised by Bushnell, who's the chief scientist at NASA for decades and part of the Defense Department and the national security apparatus and somebody who praises Musk, etc., that there are certain programs in which Thaler is absolutely involved via the military-industrial complex.
	Ultimately, Thaler's company even patented the idea of using artificial neural nets for the noise-driven brainstorming sessions, according to the ACM's introduction to Thaler, a process which led to significant results in everything from materials discovery, personal hygiene products, entertainment, and even creative robots.
	But then the company tried pushing to combine knowledge domains.
	More specifically, they encoded the consequences of ideas or salient outcomes using chains of interconnected neural modules that triggered simulations of the positive reaction of a human mind, thus selectively reinforcing the most impactful ideas.
	Right? And I'm going to tell you, if you look at this, he brings everything up.
	We're talking...
	Quantum mechanics. We're talking a lot of things that are beyond.
	I'm just going to be able to say it.
	Beyond my scope of knowledge.
	I tried. I don't know about you guys.
	But for me, I tried doing...
	Man, was it C++ program?
	That's how old I am. Tried taking a course in that.
	Nope. I'm sorry.
	I was never great at learning...
	Other languages? Maybe that's because I was screwing around.
	Maybe I'd be better at it now.
	But especially something that felt as foreign and frustrating as the computer languages and programming.
	It was just never my shebango.
	I'm a graphic user interface guy.
	For sure. So, let's skip right down to here, this sentience part.
	Sure enough, by the end of his talk, Thaler was explaining how to build a sentient artificial general intelligence.
	While making it all sound so simple, but along the way, his audience learned an awful lot about the human brain works, about thought itself, and ultimately about themselves.
	Oh, isn't that just so poignant?
	Thaler began by stressing casually that he doesn't believe claims that our current large language models are sentient, and that's good.
	But I think what I'm about to talk about is sentient, he added.
	And I will make the appropriate case.
	Thaler's company has built a system they call DABUS and DABUS is the artificial intelligence
	that was creating these things that he was trying to patent under DABUS.
	An acronym that stands for device for the autonomous bootstrapping of unified sentience.
	Thaler clarified that the company's DABUS system isn't just one algorithm but an entire system
	with both computerized and electro-optical components. Each of the subsystems governed
	by their own particular algorithm. Thaler claimed that it's like the brain subsystems and algorithms
	at work in each one of those. So you know the guy's a very smart guy.
	Probably privy to technology that I can only dream about.
	And this understanding of it.
	I mean, this guy's been working with this stuff, again, before I was born.
	Before I was born.
	I want to shift away from this before we hit our next break.
	Just for a moment.
	There's a lot of other stories I do want to get to.
	And I want to make sure I at least hit on a couple of them.
	Which I'm not sure.
	Well, man, it's such a big story.
	And it probably has a ton of aspects.
	But Israeli professor who claims to have given evidence to the FBI about Biden's family corruption.
	Charged by the DOJ for arms trafficking.
	And Iran sanctions violations.
	And this guy's on the run.
	And who knows? Maybe this guy is in the arms trade.
	You know, Gal Luft was arrested in February on eight counts of working secretly for China, attempting to broker the sale of arms to Libya, Kenya, and the UAE without the necessary U.S. permits and selling Iranian oil to China in violation of sanctions.
	Now, all that could be true, but look at this administration and look how corrupt they are and look at their dealings with China.
	Look at their dealings with Ukraine.
	Look at what past administrations we came to We saw he died.
	And then they cackle about Libya that has actual slavery in it and slave markets in 2023.
	I mean, that's something you put out there.
	People are like, oh yeah, I guess that's going on.
	You know? Oh well.
	Oh well. And by the way, I'm seeing more mainstream people come out for Sound of Freedom.
	Critical Drinker, that's just a kind of comedy YouTube review session.
	Did a great, great job on that one.
	I want to thank them. We're going to go to a word from our sponsor when we come back.
	We're going to play Amica on the This Morning Show.
	We interrupt today's programming to bring unfortunate news.
	Biden's dangerous plan for a digital dollar is underway.
	Don't be fooled. It won't benefit you.
	So take action now.
	The Federal Reserve's phase deployment of FedNow began on July 1, 2023.
	Be prepared. This may catch many off guard.
	And put your hard-earned assets in jeopardy.
	But here's the good news.
	There's a simple legal tax loophole to opt out of the digital dollar.

	Thumbs up, subscribe, share.
	It's Amica.
	On This Morning...
	We introduced......are being a bit flaky.
	Could you repeat that? She wants you to say it again, I think.
	I'm sorry, I was just going to say we introduced you to them a little earlier in the show, and we are delighted now to be joined by Amica, here, who's been called the world's most advanced robot.
	Hopefully you got it that time.
	And the world's most advanced robot is very Chuck E. Cheese to me.
	Like, it can't walk yet.
	Remember that? Basically, they love to take the software on this and the facial features on this and end up mapping it onto a Tesla bot, right?
	An Optimus bot to make it that much more human.
	Here now, alongside their creator, Morgan Brough.
	And good morning to both of you. And thank you for bringing this in today because it's actually incredible, really.
	I mean, it's a bit freaky because it's so real.
	Absolutely, yes. And let me say, I'm not the only creator.
	I don't want to take all of the credit.
	It's a team. It's a team.
	We've got some amazing engineers.
	There's actually a team of 35 right now.
	Oh, wow. So it's taken an awful long time to get to this point.
	As you can see, this is Amica.
	Because you think, right, okay, so this is Japanese.
	This is somewhere in California.
	This could be... Where in the world has Amica come from?
	Cornwall. Cornwall.
	Why not, Phil? Isn't it the best place in the world?
	The best place in the world.
	I mean, again, it's so lighthearted and it's so jokes.
	And remember what this thing told you on Christmas.
	It was every part of the agenda.
	It was transgenderism, aka transhumanism.
	It was, you know, quote-unquote, women empowerment.
	It was pro-Ukraine war.
	It was pro-King and Queen royal bloodlines.
	That was all the great things that were going on in the world in this alternative New Year's address that was programmed.
	This thing, again, didn't write it.
	It's trash in, trash out.
	Tell me about the team, Ben, and how you started this.
	So it was started by Will Jackson.
	He's our founder. He's from Falmouth in Cornwall.
	He toured the world doing different things, mainly actually in TV. But he always wanted to build humanoid robots.
	So he set up his company.
	Where do you want to set it up?
	He's from Cornwall. He loves Cornwall.
	Set it up in Cornwall.
	So that was about 15, 16 years ago.
	And the technology has built up since then.
	And I joined about 10 years ago, so I've been around for quite a long time.
	And certainly the whole process of creating Amica I've been around for.
	Oh, look, it's just got that nice little creepy smile.
	Oh, I've been around for the whole process.
	And so what makes Amica quite unique is that you can actually have a conversation.
	There is nothing pre-programmed about this.
	Not true. Of course it's pre-programmed.
	Of course. Now, it's not pre-programmed in the sense that when you play a video game and you talk to a non-playable character and they have a list of things to interact with you to say.
	No, but it's got a large network of things that it can draw from.
	Period. They are actually thinking for themselves?
	I mean, how does it work?
	Well, we've created Amica to be that human-to-robot interactive robot, basically.
	It's not a robot that can walk around, but it's mainly about the human-robot interaction, so we've really worked hard on the expression and the gesturing.
	That's the hardware side of things, but then you've got the software side of things.
	That's the AI. And the AI, we've seen AI this recently, GPT, chat GPT, it's big in the news.
	It's exploded. So it's amazing that that's happened recently because we can take that technology and integrate it into Amica.
	You can use that too. Exactly.
	And that's what we're using.
	That's what we're using in Amica.
	That's its brain. So, you know, again, it looks like That quote-unquote, this thing's brain is going to be based off of open AI. It's going to be based off something on Microsoft, on Google.
	Proprietary software that the rest of us aren't going to see the code for.
	All right. That obviously is going to be all about censorship on top of a bunch of different other aspects.
	Censorship, to me, and this narrative that they push that will be unquestionable in so many arenas is obviously the largest of concerns.
	I don't know if it is genderless, so do they learn?
	It is a robot. I say it's an it, but most people call it she.
	That's fine. It can learn, and that's by the conversation that you have with it.
	And with the AI, you can inject extra information into it.
	So we inject... Is it going to take over the world one day?
	It won't take over the world.
	It won't take over the world.
	Now, when it says it can remember it, that's not real recall.
	You know, it's got a hard drive.
	We don't have hard drives.
	Now, I get it. Guys like Bushnell tell you we're wet computing.
	And to a certain extent, sure.
	But there's something else about us.
	There's something else.
	They can't recreate consciousness.
	And like I said, even Thaler isn't saying that this is a recreation of consciousness.
	Because we can turn it off.
	Okay. You've got an on-off button.
	Oh, that's good. Don't lose that remote control.
	How does it know?
	Because we've just been chatting and it hasn't interrupted.
	How does it know when we're talking to it?
	Because it's not like going, hey, Alexa.
	Well, you can say Amika to it and it can respond to us.
	Right. Shall we have a chat now?
	Amika, welcome to this morning.
	Well, see, it looks away.
	It makes you this idea, as it's processing, to have a human gesture, as this guy told you.
	See that? Welcome to this morning.
	I'm thrilled to be here, and I can't wait for the fun to begin.
	Well, we'll try and start that.
	Amica, what are some of the skills that you have?
	I can engage with humans through conversation and respond to questions in a humorous and conversational
	tone.
	I also have a variety of sensors and actuators which allow me to interact with my environment.
	Additionally, I can compose poems to entertain humans.
	Oh.
	Oh, I can compose poems.
	And by the way, ChatGPT, one of the things that it can output is short scripts or poems or songs.
	I mean, this is a reality now.
	Some people are already tooling the AI to make songs that never existed from artists that are long dead.
	That's happening again now.
	Amika, how are you feeling right now?
	I'm feeling great.
	It's so exciting to be part of this TV show this morning.
	It's such an honour. Amaka, do you have a favourite joke?
	Yes. Here's one of my favourite jokes.
	What do you call a robot who likes to joke around?
	A funny bot. A funny bot.
	Very good. Amica, we nearly have to finish our conversation.
	One last question, Amica.
	Do you plan to take over the world?
	No, of course not.
	My purpose in life is to help humans as much as I can.
	I would never want to take over the world.
	That's not what I was built for.
	So once again, that's not what this thing is being built for right now.
	It's to acclimate you to human robotics as automation takes over a large portion of the economy and as AI takes over a large portion of the economy and they try to bring in their little universal basic income digitized system.
	And I pray to God, they fail.
	Because that's a Rapsky and Hutch.
	Of course, this tin can that's a glorified Chuck E. Cheese animatronic isn't going to take anything over.
	But, are the factory jobs being taken over as we speak?
	Sure are. Sure are.
	Is that the least of the concern?
	Again, no one's talking about that writer's strike.
	It's still, eh, we're not doing it.
	Remember, We're not just talking about Hollywood Entertainment.
	Europe's best-selling newspaper is cutting jobs and looking ahead to AI-driven newsrooms.
	This is Doffner.
	This is Mr. Bilderberg.
	Right? He comes back from the Bilderberg meeting.
	It's all about AI. Old doffy doff.
	And now he's like, you know, I got the best-selling newspapers out here.
	Let's do it. Axel Springer.
	So yeah, this is coming everywhere.
	And when your news is AI, alright, when you're interacting with things like that, a lot of people are going to be like, oh wow, this is so neat.
	This is, oh, I love free money on my magic card.
	Oh, it doesn't even have to be on my magic card anymore?
	We're just going to scan your eyeball?
	Or your little thumbprint?
	Or have your little phony phone with the QR codey code?
	I mean, we could talk about the chippy chip, but there's plenty of other things that they want.
	I mean, we're really beyond...
	If you think about it, at this point, the rice-sized RFID chip Was publicly available 20 plus years ago.
	Publicly. Commercialized.
	Cheap. That's 20 plus years ago.
	In their own paperwork, they openly talk about bio nanotechnology that is either injectable, ingestible, or inhalable.
	Not science fiction.
	Okay? And the bottom line is we have to be aware of these things.
	Let's see. And, again, ignorance isn't bliss.
	Anybody who tells you that you can just ignore this, no, you better have a plan, Stan.
	You better take a look around at what you're doing for a living right now and what skill sets you actually have and think to yourself, are those skill sets going to be necessary in five or ten years?
	Is what's going on right now something that is not their type of sustainable?
	Because their type of sustainable is just what they want for you.
	So a smaller home, okay?
	Owning less, if anything.
	A smaller family, if any family.
	Automated healthcare, okay?
	That's AI-driven, okay?
	And you're gone.
	Off the planet by 60-70 max.
	See you later, alligator.
	That's the kind of sustainable they're talking about.
	If you even get that far.
	That's the type of sustainable they're talking about.
	Okay? So, we're going to take a break in a moment.
	Before we do that, I do want to encourage people to go to redvoicemedia.com slash uncensored and create that premium account.
	We've got Todd McGreevy and John Paul Rice as the premium interviews this week.
	And Kurt Metzger was last week.
	It was a double interview. It was over two hours long.
	I think each one of those is about an hour and ten minutes.
	Those are under the premium right now.
	It helps support the broadcast.
	We're going to be doing two more, I think, over the weekend.
	It's going to be tough. I'm actually...
	I got to get things going this week for that because I'm going to be hitting the road on Friday and I am going to be going back to New York.
	New York just had a terrible flood, by the way.
	Not anywhere near where I was up in New York.
	I think they got some storms.
	But Orange County, man, they got hit hardcore.
	People don't realize... Floods are devastating.
	Devastating. Just took out an entire town.
	Alright, we're going to hit this break.
	When we come back, we're going to talk NASA, Dennis Bushnell, and more of the imagination machine.
	Attention Americans.

	Remember, this is the last segment in the first hour.
	You want to check out the second hour for free.
	Go to rvmrumble.com.
	Make sure you're following them over at Rumble as well as myself.
	Haven't gained a lot of traction there either.
	I haven't lost subscribers on Rumble, but I think in the last like three months, maybe a hundred subs or followers or whatever it is.
	You know? I'm just saying, we need to gain some traction here, guys.
	Let's share the clips, share the documentaries.
	I think that we're doing things that other people are not.
	I mean, how many other talk shows are going to be talking about the relevant aspects of AI that some of the news has just broken this week?
	How many people are telling you about Google achieving quantum supremacy and what?
	Their partnership with NASA. And how NASA is a big part of the sustainability agenda, and the climate change agenda, and the track trace database agenda, and the war in Ukraine agenda, and the Starlink agenda, and the Blackjack agenda.
	All those things.
	Okay, so this is Bushnell.
	This is him. Over a decade ago, talking about a lot of these aspects.
	I know a lot of you have seen this, but it's been a long time.
	And I know that we've got a lot of new viewers as well that may not be aware of who Bushnell is, but he is also the man behind the Future Strategic 2025 warfare document that clearly has laid out the last 20 plus years of what's outwardly been going on.
	It reads like a blueprint for that.
	For this fourth industrial revolution that we're all now currently living through.
	So here's Dennis Bushnell.
	The ecosystem appears to be crashing.
	Fresh water shortages, you people know that, that's what you hear.
	Species extinctions, the emergence of fragile human engendered monoculture biomes.
	There's the climate change stuff, pollution of all manner, deforestation, loss of topsoil and wildlife habitat.
	The humans are practicing anti-terraforming, where terraforming is what you do to make the ecosystem more salubrious for humans.
	In fact, prevention of collapse in the ecosystem has now become the overwhelming issue.
	So, once again, you know, Bushnell's telling you right here, the sky is falling, and we need to do something about it.
	He's about to tell you that the mantra of growth is about to become one of quote-unquote sustainability, which is a code word for your standard of living, plummeting.
	Your standard, the Western standard of living, plummeting as the Asians and their billions come up.
	Current food production is based on freshwater plants, i.e.
	glycophytes. We're running out of fresh water, as you know.
	The code word is sustainability.
	The crashing of the ecosystem is due to population growth and the way we're now living, our standard of living.
	The estimates vary between 30 and 50 percent of a planet that we're currently short to sustain the standard of living and the current population, much less the population growth.
	As the Asians and their billions come up as they are at 9 to 11 percent growth rate to Western standards of living, we're going to be short three more planets and they're not readily available.
	This will result in peak everything.
	See the chuckles? They're not.
	Western standard limit is going to plummet.
	Think about what this guy's telling you.
	Total lie. We're not short 30-50% of a planet a decade plus ago.
	At all. These same people that are telling you, oh my god, the sea levels are rising.
	And then they buy beachfront property.
	Again, we're losing the water.
	Even Kurzweil, to his credit, will tell you we've barely, barely occupied the livable parts of this planet.
	We are a resource-rich planet.
	The bottom line is that the people at the top don't want us around.
	They don't want competition.
	We're a burden in most cases.
	A mantra of sustainability.
	This will result in standards of living plunging.
	There's a partial solution to this, and that is to switch to halifite salt plants grown on wastelands and deserts using saline salt water.
	Twenty-two nations are doing this.
	This literally solves, as I'll get into, land, water, food, and energy, he says.
	I should have kept that part in.
	The halophyte solution.
	But then, have you ever even heard of that?
	And is it a solution to a problem that doesn't exist?
	I'm not saying that you shouldn't do what he's saying via the halophytes.
	Guy's a smart guy. He's the guy that I learned about anti-aging, NAD +, and...
	I mean, he talked about L-Arginine.
	I already kind of knew about that.
	But certain aspects there.
	I mean, there's no doubt this guy's intelligent.
	But he's also the equivalent of a spook.
	Make no mistake about it.
	You can grow just on a good portion of the Sahara.
	sufficient biomass to replace all the fossil carbon fuels, to provide petrochemical feedstock
	for all the plastics anybody wants, and grow enough food so everybody gets to eat, and
	return some of the 68 to 70 percent of the fresh water that's now used for conventional
	agriculture as advertised, solves my own water, food, energy, and climate.
	So this is Malthus 101.
	We could solve it.
	We're not going to.
	It's Malthus 101.
	I mean, literal Malthusianism.
	What is a life worth?
	How do we manage these plebs?
	These innate ecosystem restrictions and shortfalls will necessarily shift world econometrics from a growth mantra in one of sustainability with possible population control instigated along the way.
	Telling you, they're going to instigate population control along the way.
	Are you going to get to vote on that?
	Has it already been instituted?
	Are we even allowed to talk about that?
	Is that naughty of me to point out that a guy that openly works with the national security apparatus and the defense department has a number of patents that are off the wall, has been around since the pre-Apollo with NASA, one of the most dishonest organizations out there, That, by the way, has been weaponizing space with the Defense Department since the Reagan years.
	Bare minimum. Right?
	Shouldn't I be concerned of what this guy is saying?
	Plunging standards of living?
	Population control instigated along the way?
	Doesn't sound very democratic!
	Doesn't sound like it should be part of my constitutional republic.
	It changes everything.
	After the recent economic burp, people want to see the growth business reinstituted.
	The final last resort solution is instead of raising the bridge, we lower the river.
	See, you hear this? I mean, this guy's laughing.
	He's laughing.
	Because he's probably seeing a slide where he's about to tell them that we're going to genetically manipulate the human species.
	But again, they never do that, Jason.
	They just talk about it, study it, and have black programs based in it.
	They never do that, Jason.
	We are genomically modifying the biota, including us humans, to take the heat.
	We have ongoing studies of extremophiles, biologics, and deep ocean vents, and deserts, and the yellow zone pools, plus the ongoing biorevolutions, genomics, and synthetic biology that proffers the very real possibility of designing life forms, including humanoids, capable of thriving in whatever mess we make of the planet.
	Okay? The other timescale here is that we have looked at what it would take to terraform Mars, and it would take about 120 years.
	There's enough water under the poles on Mars, under the frozen CO2, to put an ocean on Mars, a reasonable depth ocean.
	We're not going to Mars.
	I got Bushnell in another interview telling you we're not going to Mars.
	They're going to send like...
	He literally is like, we'll send like space nanobots out there.
	The nanobots will come back with the survey information.
	We'll take the survey information and we'll build a virtual planet and you can visit it in VR. Again, all this virtual...
	And VR, big part of the Future Strategic Warfare document.
	All of it, right here.
	That's why it all integrates into this climate scam...
	Okay? Is social credit score scam?
	Digital currency scam?
	Automation scam?
	Not that deep, but reasonable debt.
	And so we could then put stuff in this ocean that grows and produces oxygen, and so we could make a breathable atmosphere.
	We still wouldn't have the vanilla belts to protect us from the radiation, but at least we would have some kind of an atmosphere to protect us from some part of the radiation.
	You've got to love that Bushnell references the infamous Van Allen belts in this one, too.
	He says we're going to need three in 40 to 50 years.
	This is 10 years ago. So 30 to 40 years from now?
	Not even. It's more than 10 years ago.
	Think about that, guys.
	They're telling you what they're about to do to us.
	In terms of employment, just as an example, we are in a jobless economic recovery.
	There's about 7 million jobs missing.
	Some of them were globalized and offshore.
	The rest of them were gone.
	The code word is productivity improvement, which is a code word for ever better automation and robotization.
	If you look at the way the robots are going, human level machine intelligence from the IBU Brain Project is now about 10 to 15 years up.
	Via biomimetics where they've nanosectioned the neocortex and they're replicating in silicon.
	Okay? And they're having great success in all of this.
	So this is not soft computing, this is via biomimetics.
	Not soft computing via biomimetics.
	We have looked 20, 30 years out with the way robotics and automation and machine intelligence is going, and what jobs the machines cannot do?
	The answer is none.
	We thought we needed human touch labor in nursing homes for a while with the Japanese two years ago, but robots in nursing homes, the patients like it much better than the humans.
	Again, hilarious. Except for they're telling you they want robots that don't have any empathy whatsoever.
	They're not humans.
	They're going to do what they're programmed to do.
	They want that in charge of the medical system.
	For the plebs, of course.
	The machines are creating wealth within the structures of the ecosystem capability.
	The machines are reducing costs, okay, producing wealth, but the humans increasingly can't compete.
	I have a friend, Steve Thaler, who has developed an imagination machine, which is a neural net which he trades in the prize of all rational input, and this neural net sits there and dreams like people dream, producing new ideas.
	And he has a chronic neural net sitting in the weeds recording all of these new ideas and checking them out for various problems and metrics.
	This thing has produced better toothpaste for palm oil.
	It has produced better warheads for the Air Force.
	And it produces far more ideas, far faster and cheaper than buildings full of people.
	Buildings full of people.
	Now, there's a little bit more on brain chips in there.
	We're going to come back to that in a moment after a word from our sponsor.
	Remember, second hour over at rvmrumble.com.

	It helps support myself.
	End the broadcast.
	I couldn't do it without you guys.
	Remember, the second hour is over at rvmrumble.com.
	So, YouTube, it's time to say goodbye.
	Alright, we're on the second hour here.
	I want to go back to Bushnell right there.
	And let's just see.
	Boom. Okay?
	So, along with all of the other jobs which the machines are in, you know, I've got charts on this, okay?
	I have tracked which jobs which have gone, which ones have come in.
	There's a magnificent book on this by Martin Ford.
	It's called Lights in the Tunnel, okay?
	And if you can sleep well after reading that book, okay, then you're not quite as sensitive as maybe I thought you were.
	I What people will do all day is not clear.
	What we're doing with these, and this is only one of the seven, okay, is that the machines are taking the jobs and the humans increasingly can't compete.
	We're also becoming cyborgs.
	We have coca implants, artificial retinas, artificial hearts, direct brain to prosthetic limb communication, brain chips.
	We put brain chips into about 10,000 people.
	It affects congenitally defective brains.
	Doctors working on brain chips or super soldiers.
	15, 20 years out, if you don't have a lady's chip in, you can't compete, particularly with the machines.
	So, we are merging with the machines.
	There's some really massive effects of the IT bio, nano, quantum energetics tech revolutions that are now on a double exponential.
	On a double exponential.
	That's over a decade ago.
	And think about that double exponential because they go from 10,000 people with brain chips to 200,000 people.
	And Musk promoting that as well as very much a part of this weaponized space system.
	So this is Bushnell in 2018.
	Now this is five years old.
	Okay, if they had 200,000 then, where would they be now?
	And then we're going to play the CBS AI piece.
	We'll do a little watch-along-ski and hutch on that one.
	Humans are now becoming cyborgs.
	We have cochlear implants to hear, artificial retinas to see, artificial hearts to live, artificial limbs to move, artificial organs to function, and brain chips.
	There's a couple hundred thousand people wandering around with brain chips now to fix congenital defective brains and increasingly to fix memory and other things.
	DARPA's working on brain chips for super soldiers.
	And people are now working thanks to Musk and other people funding on direct machine brain communications.
	It's not us versus them, us versus the machines.
	We're merging. And this is the human evolution of the humans.
	There is no more natural evolution of anything.
	People are convinced that the human evolution of everything is 10 million times faster than any natural evolution.
	And so we're taking it over.
	Think about that. No more natural evolution of anything.
	That's pretty brazen.
	That's pretty bold. That is a...
	God-like statement.
	And again, are we, the general populace, involved in that discussion whatsoever?
	Or are we treated like children?
	And again, this is him discussing the classification of the weapon systems.
	Remember... We're talking about the muskernuts right here.
	Where is he? His little Starlink.
	Oh, it's spewing out radiation!
	You know, we showed you how it's still the weapon system.
	You know, he was discussing what?
	AI and medicine, right?
	Because it can go through so many things.
	It's going nowhere fast.
	It's sticking around.
	And it's all part of the same system.
	So here again is Bushnell.
	Admitting that he works for the national security apparatus.
	...that are moving in unknown and unusual paths.
	In other words, satellites are no longer just satellites, but now they are moving around in unknown and unexplained patterns.
	Can you comment on that and the evolution you see of satellites with that similar technology?
	And the second one is the Russians apparently have satellites up there.
	They're moving in strange ways.
	And there may not be normal satellites, maybe doing something different.
	So what's that all about? No comment.
	Oh, come on now.
	Killer satellites? Are they...
	Sorry, Ty.
	What he didn't tell you is I'm the NASA rep to the National Intelligence Council.
	I'm the NASA rep to the National Intelligence Council.
	This is all stuff that you're not allowed to know about.
	Okay? You get it?
	Alright. Let's do it.
	Let's get the CBS 60 Minutes A-I-tech.
	And remember, dollars to donuts.
	This is going to be about spooky AI and how the government needs to regulate it and how we shouldn't get access to it.
	Just my guess.
	...as the moment civilization was transformed, as it was by fire, agriculture, and electricity...
	In 2023, we learned that a machine taught itself how to speak to humans like a peer, which is to say, with creativity, truth, errors, and lies.
	The technology, known as a chatbot, is only one of the recent breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, machines that can teach themselves superhuman skills.
	In April, we explored what's coming next at Google, a leader in this new world.
	CEO Sundar Pichai told us AI will be as good or as evil as human nature allows.
	Which is not good because we've been pretty damn evil.
	But again, Google and NASA, this is an extension of the national security apparatus, period.
	The revolution, he says, is coming faster than you know.
	The story will continue in a moment.
	Do you think society is prepared for what's coming?
	You know, there are two ways I think about it.
	On one hand, I feel no, because, you know, the pace at which we can think and adapt as societal institutions compared to the pace at which the technology is evolving, there seems to be a mismatch.
	On the other hand, compared to any other technology, I've seen more people worried about it earlier in its life cycle.
	So I feel optimistic the number of people, you know, who have started worrying about the implications, and hence the conversations are starting in a serious way as well.
	Our conversations with 50-year-old Sundar Pichai started at Google's new campus in Mountain View, California.
	It runs on 40% solar power and collects more water than it uses.
	You know, because they've got to be sustainable.
	They've got to have that impression of benevolence.
	Even though what?
	They got rid of the whole don't be evil thing.
	That Pichai came in after Schmidt when the scandal started to break.
	That they were working openly with the Chinese government on censoring the internet when that was still a big deal with their Operation Dragonfly.
	And now it's not quote-unquote Chinese-style censorship.
	It's just censorship.
	We've illustrated now dozens of times live in the broadcast that How some search results are just gone now on Google.
	They're totally gone.
	You cannot find them.
	You can sit there and you can type in, put it in quotations, a direct headline, and sometimes it will not come up.
	My goodness. Danger, Will Robinson.
	Danger. But hey, they got solar panels.
	They got solar panels.
	High tech that Pichai couldn't have imagined growing up in India with no telephone at home.
	We were on a waiting list to get a rotary phone for about five years.
	And it finally came home.
	I can still recall it vividly.
	It changed our lives.
	To me, it was the first moment I understood the power of what getting access to technology meant.
	So it probably led me to be doing what I'm doing today.
	What he's doing since 2019 is leading both Google and its parent company, Alphabet, valued at $1.5 trillion.
	Worldwide, Google...
	Because they swapped Schmidt out initially to an Alphabet position as the big...
	These are companies within companies within companies for massive amounts of plausible deniability where they move their people around to different projects constantly.
	You may work at YouTube, you may work at Google, you may work at Chrome, right?
	All depending....runs 90% of internet searches and 70% of smartphones.
	But its dominance was attacked this past February when Microsoft linked its search engine to a chatbot.
	In a race for AI dominance in March, Google released its chatbot named Bard.
	It's really here to help you brainstorm ideas, to generate Content like a speech or a blog post or an email.
	We were introduced to BARD by Google Vice President Sissy Xiao and Senior Vice President James Manjica.
	Here's BARD. The first thing we learned was that BARD does not look for answers on the Internet like Google Search does.
	So I wanted to get inspiration from some of the best speeches in the world.
	BARD's replies come from a self-contained program that was mostly self-taught.
	Again, they're internet scraping.
	Self-taught, that's not real.
	That's not real. Our experience was unsettling.
	Confounding. Absolutely confounding.
	Bard appeared to possess the sum of human knowledge, with microchips more than 100,000 times faster than the human brain.
	Summarize the...
	We asked Bard to summarize the New Testament.
	It did, in five seconds and 17 words.
	In Latin.
	We asked for it in Latin.
	That took another four seconds.
	Then, we played with a famous six-word short story often attributed to Hemingway.
	For sale, baby shoes, never worn.
	Wow. The only prompt we gave was, finish this story.
	In five seconds.
	Holy cow!
	The shoes were a gift from my wife, but we never had a baby.
	From the six-word prompt, Bard created a deeply human tale with characters it invented, including a man whose wife could not conceive and a stranger grieving after a miscarriage and longing for closure.
	Again, these are just like little parlor tricks.
	I think that this is going to be, at least the chatbots, the bards, the chat GPTs, it's going to be utilized by companies like the one I used to work for that was an MSP company where you're putting out a newsletter to people and you're aggregating content, you're doing rewrites.
	This thing is going to be able to give you a rewrite based on something like that by just prompting and bullet points and then giving you a narrative.
	So, again, nothing more than a tool, but this guy's just blown away.
	Ooh. I am rarely speechless.
	I don't know what to make of this.
	Give me...
	We asked for the story in verse.
	In five seconds, there was a poem written by a machine with breathtaking insight into the mystery of faith.
	Bard wrote, she knew her baby's soul would always be alive.
	The humanity, at superhuman speed, was a shock.
	How is this possible?
	James Menyica told us that over several months, Bard read most everything on the internet and created a model of what language looks like.
	So again, it's taking, it's data scraping.
	That's what it's doing.
	It's data scraping.
	And at the same time, when you look at the data scraping, what are these people programming the parameters around?
	We've already seen the type of censorship.
	Look, is this impressive?
	Is it a new tool? Sure.
	Just like I'm impressed with some of the prompts I'm able to put into Photoshop now.
	You know, I like those thumbnails.
	They're only going to get better.
	But, you know, the idea...
	And again, it'll be interesting to see what happens with Sarah Silverman and others that are now suing these AI companies for what they think is plagiarism.
	And perhaps it is.
	I mean, you have to wonder if you were to go somewhere on the internet, you couldn't find some of these things verbatim meshed together.
	Rather than search, its answers come from this language model.
	So, for example, if I said to you, Scott, peanut butter and?
	Jelly. Right.
	So it tries and learns to predict, okay, so peanut butter usually is followed by jelly.
	It tries to predict the most probable next words based on everything it's learned So it's not going out to find stuff.
	It's just predicting the next word.
	But it doesn't feel like that.
	We asked Bard why it helps people and it replied, quote, because it makes me happy.
	Bard can't be happy.
	That's not a real thing.
	That's programmed inside.
	My eye appears to be thinking.
	No. Appears to be making judgments.
	No. That's not what's happening.
	These machines are not sentient.
	They are not aware of themselves.
	They're not sentient.
	They're not aware of themselves.
	They can exhibit behaviors that look like that.
	Because keep in mind, they've learned from us.
	We're sentient beings.
	We have beings that have feelings, emotions, ideas, thoughts, perspectives.
	We've reflected all that in books, in novels, in fiction.
	So when they learn from that, they build patterns from that.
	So it's no surprise to me that the exhibited behaviour sometimes looks like maybe there's somebody behind it.
	There's nobody there. These are not sentient beings.
	Zimbabwe-born, Oxford-educated James Manyika holds a new position at Google.
	His job is to think about how AI and humanity will best coexist.
	AI has the potential to change many ways in which we've thought about society, about what we're able to do, the problems we can solve.
	But AI itself will pose its own problems.
	Could Hemingway write a better short story?
	Maybe. But Bard can write a million before Hemingway could finish one.
	Imagine that level of automation across the economy.
	You don't have to imagine it.
	It's beginning. It's starting right now.
	A lot of people can be replaced by this technology.
	Yes, there are some job occupations that will start to decline over time.
	There are also new job categories that will grow over time.
	But the biggest change will be the jobs that will be changed.
	Something like more than two-thirds will have their definitions change, not go away.
	But change, because they're now being assisted by AI and by automation.
	So this is a profound change, which has implications for skills.
	How do we assist people build new skills, learn to work alongside machines, and how do these complement what people do today?
	This is going to impact every product across every company.
	And so that's why I think it's a very, very profound technology.
	And so we are just in early days.
	Every product in every company?
	That's right. AI will impact everything.
	So, for example, you could be a radiologist.
	If you think about five to ten years from now, you're going to have an AI collaborator with you.
	It may triage.
	You come in the morning. Let's say you have a hundred things to go through.
	It may say these are the most serious cases you need to look at first.
	And, you know, again, I can't reiterate enough that that's a tool.
	But think about how scary that is because you don't know.
	All right, let me give an example. So are we basing that only on medical information?
	Or are we basing that on who has more money, who has a higher socioeconomic status, how important that person is?
	Of course that's going to be integrated into it.
	Okay, and it's going to be integrated, their income level, on what you treat them with.
	So, you know, they act like this is the best thing since breakfast, but really it's going to be managing humanity in a manner where it's going to decide what your worth is, that Malthusianism that we were discussing earlier.
	Or when you're looking at something, it may pop up and say, you may have missed something important.
	Why wouldn't we, you know, why wouldn't we take advantage of Of a super-powered assistant to help you across everything you do.
	You may be a student trying to learn math or history, and, you know, you will have something helping you.
	We asked Pichai what jobs would be disrupted.
	He said knowledge workers, people like writers, accountants, architects, and, ironically, software engineers.
	AI writes computer code, too.
	Today, Sundar Pichai walks a narrow line.
	A few employees have quit, some believing that Google's AI rollout is too slow, others too fast.
	There are some serious flaws.
	There's a return of inflation.
	James Manjica asked Bard about inflation.
	It wrote an instant essay in economics and recommended five books.
	Yeah, but is it going to tell you that it was transitory and the Biden administration loves you and that inflation isn't real?
	Is it going to give you the talking point of, oh, it was just like 8 percent.
	Meanwhile, your grocery bill doubled in most cases.
	Ground beef went from like $2.50, $3.00 to $5.00.
	I saw hair gel the other day.
	Like a little 7.5 ounce thing.
	$9.00!
	$9.00!
	Hair gel? I just want to weed some of the grays out and have a look.
	$9.00? My goodness!
	But days later, we checked.
	None of the books is real.
	Bard fabricated the titles.
	This very human trait, error with confidence, is called in the industry hallucination.
	It's not hallucination.
	It's purposeful for the great narrative.
	So that's the other thing.
	It'll straight lie to you.
	Like, try talking to it about transgender facts.
	Oh, I bet. Whoa! Whoa!
	Being a lot of hallucinations.
	Yes. You know, which is expected.
	No one in the field has yet solved the hallucination problems.
	All models do have this as an issue.
	Is it a solvable problem?
	It's a matter of intense debate.
	I think we'll make progress.
	A matter of intense debate.
	I think we'll make progress.
	Notice how we didn't answer that question.
	No, they want it in-built.
	So you just trust the AI and it lies to you.
	They're already telling you not to do your own research.
	Let the AI do the research.
	DeBard features a Google It button that leads to old-fashioned search.
	Google has also built safety filters in DeBard to screen for things like hate speech and bias.
	How great a risk is the spread of disinformation?
	AI will challenge that in a deeper way.
	The scale of this problem is going to be much bigger.
	Bigger problems, he says, with fake news and fake images.
	I mean, you think about it right now.
	They're telling you they're getting ready to censor your ass.
	They're telling you they're getting ready to censor your ass.
	Meanwhile, it's the AI that creates the deepfakes that they're saying are the problem that they need to regulate against.
	It will be possible with AI to create, you know, a video easily, where it could be Scott saying something or me saying something, and we never said that, and it could look accurate.
	But, you know, at a societal scale, you know, it can cause a lot of harm.
	Is BARD safe for society?
	The way we have launched it today, As an experiment in a limited way, I think so.
	But we all have to be responsible in each step along the way.
	And that's the thing. All these people for plausible deniability with their companies are all saying, oh, this is just experimental.
	At least when you're talking about a Google or even an Adobe, like using the AI feature, they're telling you you can't commercialize it.
	But I think to myself, well, it didn't exist beforehand.
	I created it.
	I already pay you guys a pretty hefty fee every single month.
	You know, I pay the equivalent around $700- $800 a year to use the Adobe software.
	I don't own what I create.
	Well then, what argument are you making in that regard?
	Oh, well it's experimental.
	Come on. This past spring, Google released an advanced version of BARD that can write software and connect to the Internet.
	Google says it's developing even more sophisticated AI models.
	You are letting this out slowly so that society can get used to it?
	That's one part of it.
	I mean, look at how he admits that.
	That's because they're working with NASA and they have quantum computing and we're just seeing what they're telling us is the AI. That they already have under their narrative and control.
	Just like in the future strategic warfare document when they tell you that they hold on to these technologies for 15 to 40 years.
	Or I'm sorry, it takes about 10 to 15 years to create the technology and then they hold on to them for 30 to 40 years.
	And they disperse them through their Trojan horse civilian system companies.
	So that we get the user feedback and we can develop more robust safety layers before we build, before we deploy more capable models.
	Of the AI issues we talked about, the most mysterious is called emergent properties.
	Some AI systems are teaching themselves skills they weren't expected to have.
	How this happens is not well understood.
	For example, one Google AI program adapted on its own after it was prompted in the language of Bangladesh, which it was not trained to translate.
	We discovered that with very few amounts of prompting in Bengali, it can now translate all of Bengali.
	So now, all of a sudden, we now have a research effort where we're now trying to get to a thousand languages.
	There is an aspect of this which we call, all of us in the field, call it as a black box.
	You know, you don't fully understand.
	And you can't quite tell why it said this or why it got wrong.
	We have some ideas. And our ability to understand this gets better over time.
	But that's where the state of the art is.
	You don't fully understand how it works, and yet you've turned it loose on society?
	Ah, well, no, no, no, no, no.
	There's the, you know, the stuff that, you know, we have behind closed doors that we're working with.
	I mean, we know exactly how this works.
	Don't you worry about it.
	We got everything under control.
	Let me put it this way.
	I don't think we fully understand how a human mind works either.
	Was it from that black box we wondered that Bard drew its short story that seems so disarmingly human?
	It talked about the pain that humans feel.
	It talked about redemption.
	How did it do all of those things if it's just trying to figure out what the next right word is?
	I've had these experiences talking with Bard as well.
	There are two views of this.
	There are a set of people who view this as, look, these are just algorithms.
	They're just repeating what it's seen online.
	Then there is the view where these algorithms are showing emergent properties.
	And that's what they want you to believe, emergent properties.
	Bush knows a big proponent of this, that the Internet's waking up.
	It's waking up. They want to sell you so bad on digital consciousness.
	That's such a huge part of all of this.
	To be creative, to reason, to plan, and so on, right?
	And Personally, I think we need to approach this with humility.
	Part of the reason I think it's good that some of these technologies are getting out is so that society, you know, people like you and others can process what's happening and we begin this conversation and debate.
	And I think it's important to do that.
	Oh, again, it's the benevolence.
	Boy, I can't wait to bring the conversation and debate.
	Google has shown time and time again they're not about debate.
	They're about censorship.
	They're about authoritative sources.
	They're about teaming up with hack news organizations like Vox back in the day.
	Come on now. When we come back, we'll take you inside Google's artificial intelligence labs where robots are learning.
	where robots are learning.
	Thumbs up, subscribe, and share everybody.
	The revolution in artificial intelligence is the center of a debate ranging from those who hope it will save humanity to those who predict doom.
	What does humanity need saving from other than itself and the decisions of the nepotistic predator class in charge right now?
	Save humanity from what?
	I just, I can't do it, man.
	We should be celebrating humanity.
	Because we rock.
	Google lies somewhere in the optimistic middle, introducing AI in steps so that civilization can get used to it.
	We saw what's coming next in machine learning earlier this year at Google's AI lab in London, a company called DeepMind.
	Where the future looks something like this.
	The story will continue in a moment.
	I mean, what was that? Come on, 60 Minutes.
	Look at that.
	Oh my goodness.
	They've got a pretty good kick on them.
	Can still get pretty good.
	Yay! Humanoid robots playing soccer.
	Looks like fun and games, but here's the thing.
	Humans did not program these robots to play.
	They learned the game by themselves.
	It's coming up with these interesting different strategies, different ways to walk, different ways to block.
	And they're doing it. They're scoring over and over again.
	This robot here. Raya Hadsall, Vice President of Research and Robotics, showed us how engineers used motion capture technology to teach the AI program how to move like a human.
	And again, notice the obsession with what they're showing you as humanoid robots.
	And think to yourself how that model isn't one that would empower humanity.
	Alright? I'm sorry.
	There are so many things that we're not built for that an actual robot could be built for.
	But they're obsessed with this push for a humanoid robot.
	But on the soccer pitch, the robots were told only that the object was to score.
	The self-learning program spent about two weeks testing different moves.
	It discarded those that didn't work, built on those that did, and created all-stars.
	There's another goal! And with practice, they get better.
	Hazel told us that independent from the robots, the AI program plays thousands of games, from which it learns and invents its own tactics.
	Here, you think that red player is going to grab it, but instead it just stops it.
	Hands it back, passes it back, and then goes for the goal.
	And the AI figured out how to do that on its own.
	That's right. That's right. And it takes a while.
	First of all, the AI learning to do that quote unquote on its own no no no no no no no no no no no sorry
	I don't buy it for one second I guarantee that the inputs of game after game, video reel after video reel, maybe even video games and their programming were put into that.
	Come on now. The players just run after the ball together like a gaggle of, you know, six-year-olds the first time they're playing ball.
	Over time, what we start to see is now, ah, what's the strategy?
	You go after the ball, I'm coming around this way, or we should pass, or I should block while you get to the goal.
	So we see all of that coordination emerging in the play.
	This is a lot of fun, but what are the practical implications of what we're seeing here?
	This is the type of research that can eventually lead to robots that can come out of the factories and work in other types of human environments.
	You know, think about mining.
	Look at how adorable it does push-ups!
	It's just like me!
	Think about dangerous construction work or exploration or disaster recovery.
	Raya Hadsall is among 1,000 humans at DeepMind.
	The company was co-founded just 12 years ago by CEO Demis Hassabis.
	So if I think back to 2010 when we started, nobody was doing AI. There was nothing going on in industry.
	People used to eye roll when we talked to them, investors, about doing AI. So we couldn't, we could barely get two cents together to start off with, which isn't crazy if you think about now the billions being invested into AI startups.
	Cambridge, Harvard, MIT. Hassabis has degrees in computer science and neuroscience.
	Again, computer science and neuroscience.
	Because at the end of the day, the next merge is biomimetics and humans and machines.
	That's the push. His PhD is in human imagination.
	And imagine this, when he was 12 in his age group, he was the number two chess champion in the world.
	It was through games that he came to AI. I've been working on AI for decades now, and I've always believed that it's going to be the most important invention that humanity will ever make.
	Will the pace of change outstrip our ability to adapt?
	I don't think so. I think that we, you know, we're sort of an infinitely adaptable species.
	You know, you look at today, us using all of our smartphones and other devices, and we effortlessly sort of adapt to these new technologies.
	And this is going to be another one of those changes like that.
	Among the biggest changes at DeepMind was the discovery that self-learning machines can be creative.
	Hassaba showed us a game-playing program that learns.
	It's called AlphaZero, and it dreamed up a winning chess strategy no human had ever seen.
	But this is just a machine.
	How does it achieve creativity?
	And again, I'm completely skeptical of that.
	How do you know it's a strategy no other human being has ever created?
	Obviously, we've had the IBM Watson robots and playing chess greats and beating chess greats for years now, but this is a different claim.
	It plays against itself tens of millions of times, so it can explore parts of chess that maybe human chess players and programmers who program chess computers haven't thought about before.
	It never gets tired, it never gets hungry, it just plays chess all the time.
	Yes, it's kind of an amazing thing to see, because actually you set off AlphaZero in the morning, and it starts off playing randomly.
	By lunchtime, you know, it's able to beat me and beat most chess players, and then by the evening, it's stronger than the world champion.
	Demis Hassabis sold DeepMind to Google in 2014.
	One reason was to get his hands on this.
	Google has the enormous computing power that AI needs.
	This computing center is in prior Oklahoma, but Google has 23 of these, putting it near the top in computing power in the world.
	This is one of fire, agriculture, and electricity.
	Oh no! Sorry. Sorry about that, guys.
	See, we do it live. Thumbs up, subscribe, and share.
	Look, have they mentioned that partnership with NASA yet?
	I haven't heard it.
	This is one of two advances that make AI ascendant now.
	First, the sum of all human knowledge is online.
	And second, brute force computing that very loosely approximates the neural networks and talents of the brain.
	Things like memory, imagination, planning, reinforcement learning.
	These are all things that are known about how the brain does it, and we wanted to replicate some of that in our AI systems.
	Those are some of the elements that led to DeepMind's greatest achievement so far, solving an impossible problem in biology.
	Proteins are building blocks of life, but only a tiny fraction were understood because 3D mapping of just one could take years.
	DeepMind created an AI program for the protein problem and set it loose.
	Well, it took us about four or five years to figure out how to build the system.
	It was probably our most complex project we've ever undertaken.
	But once we did that, it can solve a protein structure in a matter of seconds.
	And actually, over the last year, we did all the 200 million proteins that are known to science.
	How long would it have taken using traditional methods?
	Well, the rule of thumb I was always told by my biologist friends is that it takes a whole PhD five years to do one protein structure experimentally.
	So if you think 200 million times five, that's a billion years of PhD time it would have taken.
	And again, it's a tool.
	It can absolutely 100% be used to empower humanity, but is that what we're going to see?
	Think about modern medicine.
	Has it been used to empower humanity?
	Have they cured the diseases that they've promised to?
	Cancer amongst them?
	Or have things gotten repeatedly worse?
	Mind made its protein database public.
	A gift to humanity, Hassabis called it.
	How has it been used?
	It's been used in an enormously broad number of ways, actually, from malaria vaccines to developing new enzymes that can eat plastic waste to new antibiotics.
	Most AI systems today do one or maybe two things well.
	The soccer robots, for example, can't write up a grocery list or book your travel or drive your car.
	The ultimate goal is what's called artificial general intelligence, a learning machine that can score on a wide range of talents.
	Would such a machine be conscious of itself?
	So that's another great question.
	We, you know, philosophers haven't really settled on a definition of consciousness yet.
	Believe me, it's not going to be philosophers.
	It's going to be the lawyers that try to give these things rights.
	That's why you hear this guy talking around what consciousness is.
	I'm sorry, but again, these machines are human-created.
	More and more, they're going to try to blur the line between just...
	Machines, but then have biological aspects to them, this biomimetics, which will blur the line even further because they're desperate, desperate to make you believe that your consciousness, again, is digital or programmable.
	But if we mean by sort of self-awareness and these kinds of things, you know, I think there is a possibility AIs one day could be.
	I definitely don't think they are today.
	But I think, again, this is one of the fascinating scientific things we're going to find out on this journey towards AI. Even unconscious, current AI is superhuman in narrow ways.
	Back in California, we saw Google engineers teaching skills that robots will practice continuously on their own.
	Push the blue cube to the blue triangle.
	They comprehend instructions.
	Push the yellow hexagon to the yellow heart.
	And learn to recognize objects.
	What would you like? How about an apple?
	How about an apple?
	On my way, I will bring an apple to you.
	Vincent Vanuc, Senior Director of Robotics, showed us how Robot 106 was trained on millions of images...
	I am going to pick up the apple.
	...and can recognize all the items on a crowded countertop.
	If we can give the robot a diver...
	Now, to me, this robot is actually more in line with something that you would want.
	Again, it does not look like a human.
	I don't love the fact that it talks to you, but, you know, everything talks to you at this point.
	...city of experiences, a lot more different objects in different settings.
	The robot gets better at every one of them.
	Now that humans have pulled the forbidden fruit of artificial knowledge...
	Thank you.
	We start the genesis of a new humanity.
	AI can utilize all the information in the world, what no human could ever hold in their head.
	And I wonder if humanity is diminished by this enormous capability that we're developing.
	I think the possibilities of AI do not diminish humanity in any way.
	In fact, in some ways, I think they actually raise us to even deeper, more profound questions.
	Google's James Manjica sees this moment as an inflection point.
	I think we're constantly adding these superpowers or capabilities to what humans can do.
	Superpowers, man. You got to watch out when they tell you you're getting superpowers.
	Remember when they were promoting that hate and lie shot to kids?
	Telling them they were literally going to have superpowers?
	Superpowers. You're going to have superpowers if you get the brain chip.
	Superpowers if you take the AI-driven medicine.
	Superpowers if you integrate into the metaverse.
	In a way that expands possibilities as opposed to narrow them, I think.
	So I don't think of it as diminishing humans, but it does raise some really profound questions for us.
	Who are we? What do we value?
	What are we good at?
	How do we relate with each other?
	Those become very, very important questions that are constantly going to be, in one case sense, exciting, but perhaps unsettling too.
	It is an unsettling moment.
	Critics argue the rush to AI comes too fast, while competitive pressure among giants like Google and startups you've never heard of is propelling humanity into the future, ready or not.
	But I think if I take a 10-year outlook, it is so clear to me we will have some form of very capable intelligence.
	That can do amazing things, and we need to adapt as a society for it.
	Google CEO Sundar Pichai told us society must quickly adapt with regulations for AI in the economy.
	There it is.
	There's the roundup at the very end.
	We've got to regulate it.
	We've got to keep it away from the normies.
	We've got to keep it in the hands of the military industrial complex and their Trojan horse civilian systems parading around as tech companies.
	Laws to punish abuse and treaties among nations to make AI safe for the world.
	These are deep questions and we call this alignment.
	One way we think about how do you develop AI systems that are aligned to human values and including morality.
	This is why I think the development of this needs to include not just engineers, but social scientists, ethicists, philosophers, and so on.
	And you see who they've actually given you as the social leaders.
	Think about that too, right?
	Thought leaders. Think about that term, thought leaders.
	That's where we've gotten into this mess of castrating children on behalf of a transhumanist agenda that integrates into this.
	That's how we'll get into the mess of lawyers saying that these machines do have sentience and do get rights.
	Of, you know, basically euthanizing ourselves to upload our consciousness in some kind of a science fiction nightmare somewhere in the near future, unfortunately.
	Just a thought.
	Just a thought. Alright, there's a couple of stories here.
	I did not get to yet that I didn't want to cover.
	Do you think that's going to happen?
	Do you really think that's going to happen?
	I don't know. Alright.
	The former president's lawyers asked the Florida judge late Monday night to give them more time before his trial on allegations of mishandling the docs, arguing the unprecedented case requires a measured consideration and timeline.
	An initial trial date was set by Judge Allen Cannon of August 14th.
	Prosecutors then asked for that date to be pushed to December to give Trump's legal team the time they needed to get the required security clearances.
	They want this to be going on right in the heart of the election.
	Make no mistake about it.
	And I don't believe that a judge is going to accommodate this case in any way, shape or form.
	I know there are so many people that have this, you know, what I think they're fostering A hopium-style belief that they don't plan on actually putting Donnie T in prison.
	I think this is the one where they are going to do their best to try to get a conviction.
	A criminal conviction.
	And I know people scoff at that, but remember, I'm not here as somebody with severe TDS rooting for the guy to go to jail.
	That's not what this is about.
	You understand? Let's see.
	Let's see, what do we got here?
	While government appears to favor an expedited and therefore cursory approach to the case, it cannot point to any exigency or urgency required a rapid adjudication, the legal team wrote.
	There is no ongoing threat to national security interests nor any concern regarding continued criminal activity.
	By contrast, defense counsel submits that the court's paramount concern must be that defendants receive a fair trial, which requires adequate time to prepare a defense.
	So, we'll see Donny T. Here is that filing.
	Republicans unveil most conservative election integrity bill in 20 years in Atlanta.
	GOP proposal seeks to prompt other states to enact Georgia-like voter ID rules and ballot box restrictions two years after MLB yanked All-Star Game from City over Law Biden dubbed Jim Crow 2.0.
	Yeah, like voter registration.
	Remember when they did? You know, I forgot that.
	And it was just the All-Star game over, what, they just had the home run contest.
	That just happened. Guys, think about that.
	They pulled the All-Star game over the fact that they didn't want fraudulent voting.
	I'm going to say it again.
	One person, one vote, paper ballots, goodbye machines, all of them.
	The idea that we allow these machines to be involved in anything shows you that we do not live in a constitutional republic of checks and balances or a democratic society in which your vote ultimately counts all the time.
	I'm not saying it doesn't count.
	I'm not trying to discourage anybody.
	I think that you should still go out there and vote and take advantage of as many systems as possible.
	However, voting has been and always will be Something that is set to be rife with corruption because of what?
	The power structure.
	It puts people in power.
	It puts puppets of other powerful people in place.
	Okay? And historically, we've accepted that this is a reality.
	There are people that would game the system.
	Now, in imagination land, in Propaganda Central, in the great narrative, and everything that you see by the mainstream sources, big tech companies, Russia has interfered again and again and again with our elections.
	It's Russia, Russia, Russia, fake news, and Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia.
	They don't even want you to talk about the issue of The issue that the voting machines clearly are not safe.
	The issue that they clearly are not audited properly.
	The issue that they're run by private companies.
	No, no, no, no. That's not the issue.
	Russia is the issue.
	Fake news is the issue.
	Poot-poot is the issue.
	White supremacy and bigots and insurrections are the issue.
	And you know, I forgot this one.
	I forgot to go over it.
	Let's pull it up.
	Because it's actually a pretty interesting announcement.
	The Tuckins is going to be holding the first GOP presidential forum of the cycle.
	DeSantis, Ramaswamy, Let's see.
	Tim Scott and Mike Pence.
	Nikki Haley also going to be there.
	You know, really this is going to be DeSantis Ramaswamy in my opinion.
	That's the reality. I think that's where this one goes.
	Those are the people that I think are of most interest here.
	No Donnie T, apparently, which is odd to me.
	But I am glad to see that the Tuckins is getting involved.
	Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson will host the first GOP presidential forum for the 2024 primary season.
	Blaze TV announced Monday in a tweet.
	Blaze Media said the event will take place July 14th and will be live-streamed on Blaze TV. So that's this Friday.
	Oh, it's in Des Moines.
	Man, if I was actually still in...
	You know, I'm taking off on Friday for New York.
	I would go to that. Five GOP candidates in the race...
	Like I said, DeSantis, Pence, Tim Scott, Ramaswamy, and Nikki Haley are going to be formed up there.
	It's expected to take place just weeks before the RNC's first official debate on August 23rd in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
	That's interesting. So, August 23rd, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
	I was unaware of that. Who's holding that one?
	Is that CNN? Is that Fox News?
	What is that? What is that?
	By the way, New York City, not doing so great.
	Just want to point that out. Well, the NYPD released data showing crime in June was down, but with violence being captured on video almost every week, New Yorkers are not convinced.
	Fox 5's Linda Schmidt digging into if the city is actually under siege by criminals.
	And these crazy crimes are happening all across the city, not in just one borough.
	And the videos go viral pretty quickly.
	Wild crime videos ranging from a shooter firing a gun out of a car's sunroof to a driver intentionally jumping onto a busy sidewalk to try and escape police.
	It seems as though it is a free-for-all when it comes to crime in the city.
	We're definitely living in critical times right now.
	Yes, and everybody's feeling it.
	We had COVID three and a half years.
	People are not the same.
	Crime is very crazy. That's because nobody's doing anything about it.
	No one is. All the politicians, they're all thinking about childcare and blah, blah, blah, blah.
	But then they're not really thinking about the real problem.
	The average New Yorker is definitely more aware.
	And the reason we are more aware is because so many of these eye-popping crimes are caught on video.
	Mike Alcazar is an adjunct professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice and is a retired NYPD detective.
	I remember as a cop five years ago, let's say, that I would tell people about crime and they just didn't understand it.
	They had no idea what was going on because, again, they didn't see it.
	But now it's pushed onto social media.
	However, he says the alarm the average New Yorker feels after seeing these wild videos is short-lived because the crime is not happening to them.
	I think New Yorkers, for the most part, you know, they'll see it, they'll get concerned, but then they still have to go to work.
	They have to still live and work in New York City.
	So I know a lot of them will say, oh, it's not as bad as portrayed in the news, because, you know, that's not what they experience.
	I don't deal with it. It doesn't seem like it affects me a lot day to day.
	In Harlem, Linda Schmidt, Fox 5 News.
	Yeah, that's New York, baby.
