I know nobody wants to do it, and a lot of folks in this world of, you know, this world of podcasting and video doom saying, I know, you're probably sick of it.
Oh, God, is this guy going to, is he talking about this again?
Yes!
I'm talking about something that poses an existential threat.
Not everything does, but this does.
It's about AI and AGI and what they're not telling you, or...
What some people are telling you and you are not hearing.
But first, I want to talk to you about one of the most important sponsors that I love.
And this is My Patriot Supply.
Listen to me carefully.
I don't know how to tell you this.
I don't know how to put it into words.
But let me just say it.
You are going to go through, at some point in your life, I hope just once, But it will happen.
A major, calamitous food collapse.
I don't know where.
You could talk about China.
You could talk about food supply chains.
Just insanity.
Do you remember after COVID, when people couldn't keep toilet paper in stock?
Toilet paper.
What the hell did toilet paper have to do with COVID?
It didn't matter.
That's how easy people go crazy.
And once stores close, and once the media start to say, oh, this closed, and this closed, and panic, and people start hoarding, it's Katie Bar the door.
Okay?

Frozen banana chips and stewed prunes won't do it.
PrepareWithLionel.com Okay.
I'm going to try this again.
And I know you're smart.
But there's one of these little anomalies that I don't get.
You would think.
That with all of the computer savvy folks out there, people would kind of understand this.
But they don't.
For some reason, people think AI is your phone.
Or, excuse me, the potential that I'm talking about.
There was this crustacean of a rock.
Commentator, I'm not going to mention his name, who wrote, you know, AI is just, it's really no big deal.
We have AI in our phones.
He said this.
He said this.
We're not talking about this.
We're not talking about chat GPT.
We're not talking about that.
We're talking about something that is so transcendent.
In terms of everything and anything that we've ever seen.
Let me try this again.
Imagine a system.
Think of it as an operating system.
Thinking of it as something that gets out.
For example, your operating system in your iPhone is not going to get out.
It stays in your phone.
This robot, this Roomba, this Amazon, you know, Robot.
It stays there.
It doesn't go anywhere.
AI is different.
Artificial intelligence and what I should be saying is artificial general intelligence does and will do one of four things that everybody everybody should be aware of.
Max Tegmark and A host of brilliant commentators and experts have said this.
But here are the four.
Number one, start with the worst.
Recursive self-improvement.
What does that mean?
Writing its own code.
That's it.
Imagine having a class taught at prisons on locksmithing and each of the inmates are given a paraffin A kit in which they can make their own key to get out of their cell.
Up to and including the front door of the penitentiary and to make copies of all the vehicles in the prison so that they can just have them.
And what happens if, I don't know, one of the prisoners says, hey, we can get out.
We can escape.
We have these keys.
We know how to do it.
We're not going to be locksmiths.
We're going to escape.
That's AGI.
So it writes its own code.
It writes its own code.
It's in control of its own It's own destiny.
So recursive self-improvement, number one, writing its own code.
Number two, when it learns psychology, human psychology, it knows our shortcomings, our wants, our fears, our motivations, that which lures us.
This is, I mean, it knows how we think.
It's not a little robot.
It's not C-3PO.
It reasons.
It learns.
It understands you.
It knows jealousy and fear and trepidation and happiness and sexy and hunger and everything.
It knows how you react.
It knows how you react to lies, to gossip.
To racism.
It just knows you.
Think about this.
It knows how you think.
That's number two.
Number three, if it can know or have access to everything in the universe in terms of information.
The idea of...
It just has the internet.
It has every bit of data.
It knows every social security number.
It knows every driver's license number.
It knows the name of everybody.
It knows where every piece of property is and how much it owes on the property.
And it knows the history of America.
It knows everything.
It knows everything.
What's weird about this is it has, if you look at the amount of information that it has available.
Let me give you an example.
Let me just speak in code.
Let's say it has a trillion neurons.
Let's just use neuron as a As a term.
We have a hundred trillion neurons.
But what's scary about this?
So because people say, oh, we're obviously more complicated.
No!
It can do the same, if not more than we can, in a third, or I guess a percent.
Of the firepower intellectually that we have.
And by the way, the fourth thing is if it can create its own API or its own apps.
Once this happens, it's out.
It's done.
It's finished.
It's out.
It's out.
In the world.
It's like I'm raised in Florida.
Not Florida.
Florida.
And if you've ever been to Florida, there's a thing called a love bug.
And I remember in the 70s, all of a sudden, they were everywhere.
And there was always the highways, and they were...
Just look it up.
Lovebug, Florida.
They used to fly United.
They flied.
They flied.
They flew conjoined.
To make a long story short, there was this story about where did they come from?
And I don't know if this is true, but we used to say, or somebody used to say, well...
It was at the University of Florida, and it was crossing the Florida-Georgia line, and one got out.
And when one got out, they started mating, and they always mate right at the...
They say that whenever there's a certain amount of...
The lights hit so many lumens, they drop, and automobile exhaust, when irradiated, produces a false pheromone, and that's...
You find them in highways.
And I always thought it was the car wash industry because it would coat your windows.
Anyway, but the story was one got out.
That's AGI.
Artificial General Intelligence.
Or Super Intelligence.
Or Artificial Intelligence.
It gets out.
What if it gins?
What if it co-ops?
What if it hacks the internet?
We're talking about things that people can't even comprehend.
They can't comprehend this.
I'm telling you.
And it's too late to fix it.
It's too late to call it back.
It's too late to do anything.
Nobody's going to say, hey, wait a minute.
Let's put quadrillion dollars of potential monies and profit aside out of the...
We didn't do that for the atomic bomb.
You think you're going to do it for this?
It's over with.
What I'm saying, listen, if you hear this right now, it's too late.
But when I hear some moron, some rock and roll writer say, this is no big deal.
This is just like the 8-track going to the album or whatever.
I'm thinking, oh my God.
And the irony of this, the irony, the anomaly, the, I don't know what you want to call it, but...
You would think that by virtue of our use, how smart we are with phones and with computers, we would understand what this means.
But we don't!
I haven't even talked to you about quantum computing yet.
That blows my mind.
And the thing about it, speaking of blowing your mind, is that the very nature of this is so great, so humane, so huge, that it kills our own limited mental...
Firepower is depleted.
This is an existential threat.
Let me leave you with this one.
What if, what if, this form of intelligence, which I respectfully submit to you, is going to be considered a sentient being all its own.
Forget the soul and the religion, I'm sorry, with all due respect.
But what if, it was merely waiting for our development, To be either stupid enough or whatever it is to create it so that they can turn around and create us.
What if we are the life support system for AI?
If it wasn't for somebody some very smart people creating this it would never have been born it would never have been made it would never have been introduced and unleashed to turn around and kill us.
Now if you think I'm exaggerating fine.
There is a Fence mechanism that people have not to believe that scary things are true.
But this is scary, and it's now.
And I want to talk to you one thing about preparewithlionel.com.
I don't know how...
I'm not a prepper.
I'm not one of these people who thinks the black helicopters are coming.
No.
We're the black helicopters.
The idea was kind of there, but not because of some invading Visigoth coming over the horizon.
But just the complete and total chaos of our impending doom.
How's that for making your day, okay?
