I want to ask you a very simple question.
Have you ever heard anyone on any mainstream media platform even remotely explain to you What AI is or AGI is and what it means.
Have you ever heard that?
No.
Why do you think that is?
Let me tell you why.
Because they're idiots.
I know that may sound a bit harsh.
I'm sorry, but it's true.
Let me explain to you a few things.
But first, let me explain also.
And I have to do this in an obligatory way.
I want you to follow me at Lionel Nation on YouTube.

You know the routine.

Hit the bell.
But Lionel Nation.
Why do I say that?
Because that's the future.
Well, of course, me, yes.
But that long form.
Video citizen, civilian, and alternative, and foreign news.
Why?
Because they've got time.
They understand it.
They're not limited to some five-minute...
Did I say five minutes?
What am I talking about?
When have you ever heard five minutes on any of that cable news dreck?
You're being lectured to by children, unimaginative, incurious, dolts, boeotians, dimwits, dullards, who have no sense of critical thinking.
Let me see if I can explain this to you.
And I'm going to tell you in a way that's truthful, and you're not going to hear it on any of those other shows or platforms with some Botox and spackled, juvedermed, fillered, airbrushed.
It's over with.
Let me just cut to the chase.
That's over with.
But what poses an existential threat To humanity.
Listen to me carefully.
It's not chat GPT, but AGI.
Artificial general intelligence.
The moment that comes, and I mean it's going to be here before you know it, and four things happen.
Number one, recursive self-improvement.
When it can write its own code, Oh my God.
When it can write its own code.
When I say it, it, what is it?
We'll get to it in a moment.
All right, it writes its own code.
Number two, when it knows everything there is in the universe, from your driver's license number to the names of everybody to every historical fact, every bit of data.
Under the sun, from the web to whatever it is.
Did I say the web?
The internet?
The web.
That's number two.
Number three, when it understands human psychology.
Your wants, your likes, your fears, your tendencies, your habits, your idiosyncratic reflexive patellar reactions to things.
And number four, when it can write its own apps and API.
It's done.
It's finished.
It's off and running.
Where is this?
Where is this AI thing?
What is it?
Is it on a phone?
I heard somebody the other day.
Listen to this.
It was some judge rule who writes a music newsletter.
He said, I don't see what the big deal is.
There's AI on our phones.
Or they think it's so...
It's a robot or like a Roomba thing.
I don't know.
I don't know what it is.
I don't know where these people are from.
I don't know what it is about this that they don't understand.
But this intelligence unit, this thing, this essence, this entity, this like a Higgs field, this thing that That exudes its presence into the world,
and also connects with others as well, could very well, once it hits that saturation point, once singularity hits, or whatever you want to call it, it could say, enough with these people.
That's what anything superior always does.
You know, I think someone said, it might have been, I don't know how many...
300,000 years ago, don't quote me on this, we could have had nine species, nine human species actually coexisting on the planet.
Look how the other ones turned out.
Let me give you this one.
What is to say?
Or what is not to say?
Or who's to say?
Whatever the hell I'm trying to say.
That we...
As a species, have merely been put here on this planet in order to lay the groundwork to provide the framework and the basis or bases for AI and AGI to occur, to lay its foundation, to present itself, to be, to exist, to flourish.
To permeate?
To exist?
And then, once it settles itself, starts dispatching those of us that are considered surplusage or an unnecessary existence.
We're getting in the way.
Will AI, will AGI exist with a degree of evil?
Does it understand evil?
And more importantly, this is the most critical.
This is the most critical thing of them all.
This is it.
We have been laboring under the delusion that being human is the greatest thing in the world.
That being human is to know love and strategy and reason and logic and beauty in our art.
And that we can think of, we have Mozart and we can sculpt and we can play and we can paint and we can draw and we can fly and we can...
Construct planes and we did everything.
We even constructed maybe perhaps one day quantum computers that will allow all of this to happen.
And that there's nothing that can surpass humans.
That humans are the pinnacle.
That there is nothing that can be any more beautiful because we know love and we know affection and we also know treachery and we know deceit and we know avarice and we know homicidal rage.
But that There is nothing, and I don't want to get too religious on you, but there are people who believe that this is as far as it goes.
That there's nothing better than humans.
Humans are it!
The pinnacle, the apex, the zenith!
The quintessence of everything is human.
Wrong!
And it's that wrong part that's going to blow your mind.
