I I'd like to tell you of a hypothetical, kind of a dream of mine, like just this thought experiment.
And I love thought experiments.
I love to think about things like, you know, what if?
What if?
And just think about that because that sometimes lends us or allows us to pursue a particular way of thinking that we would have never thought.
Had it not been for that and but for that thought, the sine qua non, so to speak, the but for.
But there was a time in my generation, there was this thing years ago we refer to called the mood ring.
It probably lasted about a week.
But it's always been referenced to.
We always said, we need a mood ring for such and such.
And it was a ring you wore that theoretically reacted just to body temperature.
And depending upon the color that it exuded or displayed, it meant you were melancholy or aroused or whatever the thing was.
It didn't last that long.
But the concept stuck with us.
Okay, put that over there.
Mrs. Dell and I were walking in the hood, and there's a little dojo where kids go to learn martial arts, and they're cute, you know, with their little geese on, and they have their little whatever, and their parents are there, and the nannies, of course, are there, and any of it.
But I like the belt.
And the belt is, of course, black belt, and then there's yellow belt.
There's the belt that comes just to hold it up, the belt that comes with the, you know, the starter kit, so to speak.
But then, you know, but it tells you, you know, you got my black belt, your black belt.
What are you?
I'm a purple belt.
Okay, you're a purple.
And we also have height, not height.
Why people say height, I have no idea.
It's height.
Anyway, height and weight and, you know, heavy weight.
What am I saying?
If I went to a party, if I went to talk to somebody, I could say, could I see your ring, please?
And they would show me their moon rings.
Oh, okay.
And I wish you told me their level of sophistication, level of knowledge, level of history, political inclination, but not, I don't even care what their left are, right?
How much do they know?
That's what I want to know.
What's the level?
What's their belt?
Are they a black belt in the subject?
Or are they novices?
Are they experienced in this?
Or do they just sort of start out?
What's that level?
Do they understand it?
In the world of wrestling, you would say, is the person smart?
Is he a Miyazaki?
Or is he a Mark?
Is he a Miyazaki?
Is he somebody who doesn't understand the business?
Somebody who's smart?
It's almost like in the mob.
He's a friend of ours.
You understand this?
Our good friend Billy Pierce, Kay Fabe, says, unlike professional wrestlers that battle to wear belts but have no pants.
There you go.
And you can have eight different belts within one particular area.
The television title match.
Anyway, let's don't get into that.
Because remember, I have been accused of being desultory.
Elliptical, discursive, where if I say something, I'm off on a tangent.
The audience is the worst.
You can say, I like Bobo Brazil, and they're off to the races.
So anyway, thank you, Billy Boy.
Mr. Woodchuck lives on.
Okay.
So we had this event the other night.
President Trump is going to be speaking, I believe, today in Georgia.
Is Georgia correct?
Oh, Michigan?
Anyway, he's speaking somewhere there.
And people are lining up.
Now, what do you think that belt color would be?
To speak to a crowd.
White.
Not even a belt, just the belt that comes with when you buy your gi or you buy your Michigan.
When you buy your clothes.
The belt that comes with it, that's the level.
And this is not meant to be rude, but Americans in particular don't know anything.
They're not there to discuss what's important.
Don't do this.
If you could have constructed an RNC convention, which is redundant, Technically, it's the Republican National Committee Convention, but they called it the RNC, and they think convention is the C, that's committee versus committee.
Anyway, the RNC, C. I'm very big on that.
ATM, ATM machine, now it's redundant, VIN number, now it's VIN, I'm sorry.
But if you would have had one, I guarantee it would have been maybe an hour, tops.
I don't know why all the states are saying, Michigan, the proud state.
You know who it is.
It's already presumptive.
I don't know why you're doing it.
Anyway, I would have had Lee Greenwood.
We would not have had it.
No Hulk Hogan.
No Kid Rock.
No Eric.
No nothing.
Except the stuff that really matters.
And I would have put this place to sleep.
What am I talking about?
What am I talking about?
Let me tell you.
America is a wonderful...
It's my homeland.
My brothers and sisters.
Do you have a family that is demented?
Do you?
If I went to your...
It's very interesting, you know, when people are courting.
Sometimes, okay, listen, I'm inviting you to my Thanksgiving.
Now, let me warn you.
Did you ever get that one before?
Let me just warn you.
What do you mean?
This is my family now.
You ever had that happen?
What do you mean?
Okay, let me explain my Aunt Maxine.
She gets drunk, and she has a problem, and Uncle Bill, they're not talking, and my other cousin, he's been in the mental hospitals, and he can't drink, and if they say anything to you...
What am I getting in?
But I love them.
And you'll hear this.
But that's my family.
But I love them.
That's America to me.
I love them.
But bless their heart.
And bless their heart, as you know, is a big southern affectation.
It's a southern phrase.
It means, of course, I'm going to say something bad about you, but I'm going to retrieve.
I'm going to, you know.
I'm going to get a pass by saying, but bless his heart.
You know that Bill Pierce?
He doesn't have, don't know, have sense of piss out of a boot or have a window to throw it out of.
Man, dumber than times and 29. You know, I can go on, but bless his heart.
Bless his heart.
He means, well, okay.
That's America.
America doesn't know anything.
America, I have this, okay?
This is my hat, but I don't want to wear it a lot because something happens to people.
And I want you to take this.
Don't take this the wrong way.
But something happens.
When you put a hoodie on somebody, they turn into a thug.
Have you noticed this?
Get an old person.
You can say, hey, Grandma?
Yeah, Aunt Maxine?
Can you put the...
I got you something.
It's a hoodie.
Oh, thank you, Tad.
Let me put it on.
You hunch over, and you get...
You're like a turtle putting his head through the...
You look like...
Let's walk around with my hoodie.
Something happens.
It's weird.
And, with all due respect, sometimes, when you put on a...
This is why I got to be very careful.
Sometimes you'll say, Hey!
We're the women!
Okay, Uncle Cletus.
Thank you.
I'm not suggesting that the cause is stupid.
Believe me, I'm not.
But something happens to some people where I put on my hat.
I don't have to think.
No, you got to think more.
No, I do.
Wait a minute.
Now the left does everything too.
I got my purple hair.
I got my studs in my nose.
I'm set.
I got my tats.
I'm in.
No, not really.
There's something deep here.
Remember, I'm glad we're here.
I'm saying you have a great time.
It's watching kids on Christmas morning.
Look at them go through the presents.
They're having a great time.
They've been waiting all year for this.
Just let them make a mess.
Don't worry about it.
That's what we're going through right now.
They're so happy.
It's so great to see America care about something.
To see them out and about.
To see him at rallies.
Finally to have this president.
But we're not talking about anything.
It doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter.
Wasn't Hulk Hogan great in this 1980, 90, whatever?
Yeah, I guess.
But I'm a different person.
You know what I mean?
People have different levels of this.
People have levels of things you can't imagine.
People have levels and they're into this thing where we...
What am I getting at?
Why do you keep insulting people?
I'm not insulting people.
No, yes you are.
I'm not insulting people.
You keep telling everybody how stupid Americans are.
It's not that they're stupid.
They just don't understand it.
They don't understand.
Well, what's your point?
Let me give you an example.
Let me explain to you.
Do you know what happened?
What happened this week?
Anything special?
Anything happened this week?
Anything?
Anything happened in the past couple of days?
Anything?
Anything happened in the past couple of days?
Whoa!
That was scary!
What was that all about?
Anything?
Anybody notice anything?
Who's the first one to get this one right?
Come on!
Anything interesting that happened?
Anything other than the convention?
Other than, you know, Biden maybe stepping down?
Anything?
RNC?
Well, that was good, yes.
Anything other than the RNC?
Anything happened this week where people say, internet outage?
Thank you, Dennis Cosgrove.
CrowdStrike and Microsoft?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Now, if I said to you, is this a...
AI, perhaps?
Is this a beta test?
Is this a rollout?
Is this some kind of a warning for...
Can you imagine if I had been at the RNC and I had said, is this a rollout for what?
Some guy with a cheese, you know, with a styrofoam cheese thing?
A rollout?
Beta test?
What the hell is he talking about?
You know, for AI, who?
What?
Now, hey, it's Judge Jeanine.
Okay, you know what I mean?
That's it.
That's it.
And these are the people who were the most connected.
They spent money to go to Milwaukee.
By the way, a great place.
Wisconsin is a great, great place.
That is, oh my God.
I went to a wedding one time years ago in Marshfield, Wisconsin.
I mean to tell you, we're in this little town.
And I remember, you know, we went down, the wedding party was there, you know, we go down to the, to the, to the, whatever, to the family, and they're throwing them back.
It's like, for breakfast, all the, it was wild.
That's, and in Madison, this, oh my God, the school town, don't let these people with the cheese, they know how to party.
They are fun.
Like you can't believe.
That being said, do you know who Vance is?
J.D. Vance?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
That's the story.
That's a good story.
Don't get me wrong.
Do you know who he is?
How Peter Thiel works into this?
And how big tech is working into this?
And how...
What they're going to do and why they're putting all this money into this and who owns what?
No.
Okay, let me give you an example.
Okay?
Let me give you an example.
And this is what's the most important thing that I'm trying to get across to people and I know I am wasting my time.
Not with you, but with them.
Let me give you an example.
Okay.
JD or somebody rolls this out because JD is beholden to All of these weapons systems, and remember, it's information.
The world has to live in a panopticon.
Wars will not be wars.
Did you read about the Houthis hitting the installations or apartments in Israel?
No, of course not.
Not you, but nobody's talking about that.
Poozies.
Not a guy.
But, they like Kid Rock.
But, They like Hulk Hogan, but they like Dana White.
Great, but...
Okay, alright.
Warfare is going to be...
The last thing we're going to worry about are guns.
That's not even interesting.
We're just going to shut stuff down.
And in order to find out how to shut things down, we need to have in place systems...
That from time to time we'll do a beta test.
Let's see how this thing works, right?
Let's run through this.
Can you give me an hour of blackout?
How much?
Oh, 25% Northeast Corridor.
Okay.
For an hour.
Okay.
Got it.
Now watch.
Everybody watch.
Take your notes.
Take your notes.
Keep it up.
Okay.
Very good.
Okay.
Panic.
Panic.
Yeah.
Very good.
Oh, good.
Interesting.
Oh, the police?
Did crime go up?
No, crime didn't go up.
Interesting.
Crime went up here, but not here.
Okay, you got it?
You got all the data?
Great.
Okay, turn it back up.
Now we're back again.
Wow, what was that about?
Nothing.
Must have been a glitch.
Why you, Bill Gates?
Why you?
That was interesting.
There was one weekend, all of a sudden, we had a malware, some kind of ransomware, and gas stations, or filling stations, as we used to call them.
Petrol stations, they would just shut down.
Why them?
I don't know.
Ransomware.
What does ransomware have to do with it?
It doesn't matter.
Shut it down, folks.
Okay, everybody watch.
Okay, how long?
An hour.
You know, an hour.
Or a day.
Interesting, interesting.
Problem here, problem there.
What are the Republicans?
Okay, got it, got it.
Okay, back up.
Okay, let's work on airlines.
I want you to do...
Next time, hospitals, airlines, and make sure that our media that we own, because they are part and parcel of us, make sure we have them say the right thing.
Okay, we got it.
Terrific.
Now, anybody even going there?
Good luck.
Good luck.
They're going to say, what was that all about?
I don't know.
But anyway, back to Trump and the bandage.
And you think the bandage is real?
And a lot of these folks are saying, Who was Maria Shriver?
And we want to know, where was Barron?
I mean, this is just, they're talking about stuff that doesn't even matter, which is great, too.
And by the way, Elon, you notice that?
Yes, good.
Keep him busy.
I will.
Remember, love Elon, don't trust him.
But love him, but don't trust him.
Don't think Elon is going to go against his cronies.
No.
But he's good, though.
As Mr. Pierce will tell you, he's a heel or a face, depending upon where he's.
We're not sure.
He's kind of a heel to some people, but he's whatever.
Okay.
Because he loves free speech, by God.
All right.
Now, switch this out of the way.
Here's the new one.
All right.
This is a new chapter.
This is a second act.
I'm going to stand up and say, ladies and gentlemen, On behalf of President Trump and Vice President Vance, my name is Uncle Lenny, and I'm in charge of a new division called the U.S. Cyber Security Amendment.
I'm going to give it a name, maybe an acronym like Svenskom.
Okay, and Svenskom.
Svenskom, where we monitor Swedes.
I don't know, but anyway.
And if we had known where this would be, this criminal, this horrible person, if we had in place a form of digital identification, listen to me and listen good, my friends, if we had a form of digital identification, and we would have had him monitored, we could go up to our Panopticon screen, turn it on, and say, these are these people.
All these reds, these people moving around, these red people, our AI cold monitoring systems and the like recognize this person as being a potential threat to, let's say, the president or whatever it is.
Why?
We've looked at what social media he reviews, the media, the friends he keeps on media, both physically Terrestrially, but also in the cyber world.
We've looked at threats he's made.
We looked at gun purchases.
We looked at a variety of factors.
Grades, dropout, criminal record, political affiliation, what he said, what he's not said.
And we put all of this together.
And we have given him a designation of hot the hot.
Had this digital identification system been aware, we would have had our own drones that would have done a scan, and if he walked out of his home that day, we would have been able to say, you're not coming in here.
We would have identified him.
Here's his name.
This is what he does.
You're not coming in here.
We know what weapons you've purchased.
We understand that your father, according to our system, just put out a contact of the authorities.
We know everything.
You're not going to step foot in here.
You can have all the DEI you want.
He's not getting in here.
You're not going to get it.
Ladies and gentlemen, we live in a world where we can protect ourselves from the wrath, from the imane, from the huge, the colossal threat that terrorism and criminal terrorists provide.
And that's why we are asking that you go along with us to a system sponsored by Peter Thiel and others.
I keep saying Thiel, Thiel.
It's like Houthis.
But the whole Silicon Valley group, and with their help, we're going to be able to harness the power of these incredible entrepreneurs, these great patriots, who've donated handsomely and are the benefactors of Mr. Rance.
We're also going to have it border security.
We're going to use the ultimate in surveillance techniques for border.
But in order for us to do this, we have to be able to tell the good guys from the bad guys.
And that's why we are implementing today, and we are asking that you agree with us, to accede to a form of digital identification, some form of monitoring, so that we know who we are.
During the pandemic, we always rolled out some stuff.
Remember to pay attention to what was going on.
One was contact tracing.
One was the old-fashioned.
Here in New York, we had a thing called 3-1-1.
If you see a neighbor or one of your friends, how happens to be here, give us a call.
What do you mean?
Well, if you see somebody violating the rules, call us up.
I don't know if you have a 311 versus 911.
If it was hello, yes.
My neighbor, yes.
They're outside.
It was so sad.
We'd see people in their driveway.
It was so sad.
It was cold.
They're outside and they're talking.
But another way to figure this thing out is there used to be this phone system.
And you'd have your phone.
This is my case, of course.
Do you have a teenager or a young person in your home?
You got them a phone, right?
Put a case on it.
I don't like the case.
No, no, no.
I'm not fixing your cracked glass anymore.
Put the case on it.
Do you have...
They don't want a case.
You can drop this thing.
Anyway.
This device, this thing that we have, used to have this thing called contact tracing.
And what it was, Apple did and others, that during the pandemic, if you uploaded or if you became a part of the system where your status, your name, your identity, including your vaccination schedules, whenever you uploaded it, because it was an app and people loved it.
One was the Empire app.
This is great.
And eventually they loved it.
I've got mine.
People, I swear to you, if you could have tattooed a barcode, they would have done it.
So if you get onto a bus or public transportation, I got mine.
You don't have to carry that pesky car with you.
You want to go into your office?
Show us it.
I love it.
I got mine.
Isn't this great?
Keep America safe.
That's all terrific.
That was a beta test.
Remember, just to see the behavioral things.
Just to see how people are doing this.
Do you know why Social Security has seven numbers?
Right?
No, no.
Nine?
Yeah, it's nine, right?
Whatever.
It's called chunking.
And Bell Labs did that.
Phone numbers did the same thing.
555-2135.
555 always does that.
The phone number in movies.
Because you used to get information.
I don't even know if we have that anymore.
So, I one time said, we were at a friend, and I said, let me see your phone.
I said, do you have that?
Remember when iPhones had that pandemic app on there?
He said, what are you talking about?
I said, do you have a COVID app?
He goes, what?
He said, give me your phone.
He looked at his phone.
He goes, right here, look.
And he was like, ping, ping, ping, ping.
He was pinged a million times.
I said, that means that you came into contact.
Your phone came into contact with another person's phone who, for whatever reason, either voluntarily or were put on a system, on a database that indicated they had had such and such of a health status.
And it told you, and by the way, this is just a beta test.
This is just running.
This is just, you know, kind of a dress rehearsal.
Let's roll this out, see how it works.
So that one day you can get a knock on the door and you can say, Mr. So-and-so, yes, you're not going out.
You're going to have to self-quarantine.
We haven't used that term.
This is what Biden's doing.
Biden is self-quarantining.
Did you know that, ladies and gentlemen?
He's self-quarantining.
Why?
He's self-quarantining because they don't want him to walk around because he's out of his mind.
That's why.
He's self-quarantining.
Did you know that?
Oh, yeah.
I forgot about that.
I know.
You've been so busy talking about other stuff because we have the attention span of a gnat.
I haven't.
Self-quarantining is a wonderful way to say, hey, why haven't we seen Biden?
Because he's self-quarantining.
As his cognitive levels just continue to plummet at free-fall levels.
Okay.
Go back to this.
Ladies and gentlemen, instead of Us worrying about whether there's a DEI program installed and this iteration of the Secret Service or the next.
We have to use high tech.
And that's why my office has implemented today's, this digital, not only we'll go to central bank digital currency later on, but this digital identification.
Every person.
Now let me ask you, don't you understand?
Do you have credit cards?
Yes.
There are RFID chips in your credit card.
Do you ever get those things that say, hey, my wallet prevents an RFID reading.
They can read this.
Do you have a license tag?
You have a chip in there.
Do you have a passport?
You have a chip in there.
Do you have a phone?
Your phone is the greatest homing device.
By the way, you home in on And you don't hone in.
You home like a homing pigeon.
Your phone is a walking beacon.
Beep!
Beep!
It's the most beautiful thing.
Eric Blair, 1984, wouldn't believe this.
He would say, no.
Yes!
People have this phone.
In fact, if you want to see how important a phone is, Look, the first thing they say when they're arrested, give me my phone.
Where's my phone?
Oh my God, where's my phone?
Now, where's my kid?
People forget their children in cars.
They never forget their phone.
You ever see anybody who said, I left my phone?
Never.
Never.
I know people, we have people who are so irresponsible, younger people in particular, we know one in particular.
This person will forget everything.
This person will go and you can go to a store.
Forget it.
Forget this.
Forget that.
I don't know where this is.
I don't know.
Remember when you were a kid?
Where's your retainer?
I don't know.
How did you lose your retainer?
I don't know.
Where's your books?
I don't know.
Where's your kid?
Oh my God, I left my kid in the car.
In the hot sun?
But your phone?
Never.
Never.
You'll never forget that.
You have that with you all the time.
Bring it into the bathroom.
And the best part is, you think you can turn it off.
You think, I'm going to power down that phone.
Uh-huh.
Really?
Okay, good luck on that one.
So, one day, they're going to say to you, imagine this.
This fellow, beep, beep, beep, beep.
Hey, we got a hit.
Why?
Well, this guy, his name is, and I've never said his name.
He's in the Pennsylvania area.
Keep an eye on him.
Why?
Well, the president's going to be there.
Okay, keep an eye on this.
Where is he now?
Well, he's moving.
He's moving.
He's moving.
Yep.
He's moving.
Yep.
Keep an eye on him.
We don't need Malibu Barbie there.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Don't worry about that.
Don't worry about that.
He's in Butler.
Keep an eye on him.
There he is.
He's moving.
Okay.
Agents, he's over here.
Get him.
He's the only one here.
We did all of our AI scanning.
He's the only person, the only name.
Beep.
Stop him.
He's not coming in.
Keep an eye on him.
Stop him.
Here he is.
Here he comes.
Ladies and gentlemen, do you believe in a secure world?
Yes.
Do you believe that in order to live in a secure world, you're going to have to give up some rights?
Yes.
Do you realize how many people we have been able to say because of CCTV, every square inch of every city is under some type of surveillance?
We are better off.
You may call it Big Brother, but Big Brother actually...
It's a bodyguard.
We're your bodyguard.
We can't help you if we don't know where the bad guys are.
Yes!
That's where we're going.
And if you ask most people, like my friend who I said, look at your phone.
Bing, bing, bing, bing.
He looked at me like, because we have been, some of us, born in captivity.
We don't know what this is.
We don't know.
We have no fear of surveillance.
Neary's is closing.
Oh my god!
On 57th?
Is that what you said, Raul?
Oh, remember what was his name?
Jimmy Neary?
The famous...
If that's what you're talking about.
It's almost near 57th and 1st or something.
That was a famous...
Check that out.
Oh my god.
The end of the Irish pub.
It's over.
Oh my god.
And the end of the dive bar.
Oh god.
We can't have that.
We cannot have that.
We cannot have that.
So, thank you for...
I don't want to read too much into it, Raul.
But anyway.
Something else is happening right now.
And the biggest story anybody could ever tell, the number one, the thing that keeps me, quote, up at night is not nuclear.
Not at all.
None.
None.
Look at this.
Someone says, my phone is de-googled.
Can only track if I'm talking on it.
You don't believe that, do you?
You don't believe this, do you?
See, that's the best part.
Oh, I'm using this.
Yeah, I can.
It keeps all my browsing history.
Really?
Did you see what they were trying to say yesterday?
That this fellow was browsing, looking at porn before.
What does that have to do with it?
What does that mean?
What does it even mean?
I don't know.
Are you saying this?
This world actually cares about, you care about porn?
You don't care about porn?
That's the last thing.
Today?
Yesterday.
Oh my god.
That is so sad.
So sad.
So sad.
Oh my god.
Listen to this one.
This is so interesting right now.
Flash says, So I live in central PA along the Amish community.
They have zero fear as they have zero interaction with media, phone, etc.
I would imagine in that sense they enjoy life a lot more than us.
Could be.
Flash, could be.
Do you want to live in a world with no internet?
I don't.
I don't.
One of the greatest things ever...
Is Waze and Google Maps and GPS.
That is absolutely the greatest.
I wholeheartedly say thank you.
I know what I'm doing.
I'm being monitored.
Thank you.
Do you have a lease card?
Thank you.
Do you have a license tag?
You're being monitored.
Absolutely.
But it's a little different.
At least somebody says, that's interesting.
I don't know if we have easy paths.
We have easy paths coming to the Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, whatever it is.
And there are no...
I don't know.
Do they even have human toll takers there?
I don't even know this.
CR says, I live by an Amish community and they have phones.
Well, there you go.
You see, the thing about, and by the way, I am dying to know about the Amish.
I want to go so much to meet them, and I want somebody to say, okay, here are the Amish, here are the Mennonites, here's the difference.
I don't know.
One time I did a, on my own, I decided to, I have a friend of mine who all of a sudden said he's Protestant.
Okay, fine.
And in one Afternoon.
I am an autodidact.
I'm self-taught.
I can learn anything and get a pretty good feel for it to the point of being dangerous.
But it's quick study.
Why?
It's the internet.
So my friend decided he's going to be Protestant.
He was raised Catholic and he's going to be Protestant.
Okay, fine.
So I said to him one day, I said, what makes a Protestant?
A Protestant versus a Catholic.
This says Yoder, Kansas.
Is that where you are?
Thank you, CR.
Let's see what Yoder sounds like.
Yoder sounds like yodel.
I told you what my dream is.
Oh, here we go.
Yoder, Kansas.
Yoder, Kansas is a census.
Reno County, Kansas.
Oh, is Yoder, Kansas Amish or Mennonite?
Oh, I didn't know this.
It's Amish.
Yoder is a hub of Amish community.
In Kansas?
I had no idea.
See?
I thought they were only in Pennsylvania.
I had no idea.
I don't know anything about the Amish.
Remember this one?
What's this?
Bang!
Bang!
It's an Amish drive-by shooting.
Yoder is a common Amish name.
I did not know this.
This is fantastic.
I think these folks are great.
They also, if I recall correctly, the Amish had very strong thoughts regarding mandatory vaccinations.
They wanted to Sell raw milk.
Oh my god!
Remember the raw milk?
When the FDA or Big Agra would...
Oh my god!
Up against the wall!
Some guy says, some guy with a beard.
They don't wear buttons because the buttons are a sign of constriction or whatever.
Remember that?
The Amish?
You don't have to do the Amish?
What are you doing?
I love that.
I'll see an Amish every now and then.
Maybe at a farmer's market or I love it.
I love tradition.
I love tradition.
I don't care what it is.
Let me tell you something.
In the Jewish community here, you go to some parts of in Brooklyn, Williamsburg and others, but you have the Orthodox, the Lubavitchers, the Hasidim.
It's Unbelievable.
Lori Cook, thank you, Lori.
We have these folks, and let me tell you what, I don't care what anybody says.
They've never bothered me, but to devote your life to this, to anything, and those expensive, I don't know what they are, chinchilla, I don't know what these hats, they look like a hammerhead shark, they wear these hats.
And they were like, I respect that.
I respect that.
So anyway, going back to my friend.
My friend, he said, I'm a Protestant.
Okay.
I said, what's the difference between a Protestant and a Catholic?
That's pretty easy, isn't it?
Don't you think it's easy?
He looked at me and said, well, you're rejecting the Catholic faith.
Is it the papacy?
Is it Rome?
Is it...
Nicene Creed, the First Ecumenical Council, St. Peter, what?
Well, they're both Christians.
Well, what is it?
Why are you not a Catholic anymore?
What have you adopted?
Our good John Jelaine says, Hutterites and Quakers just trying to live a life of bliss and ignorance.
Look!
God bless you!
I like anybody who believes in something.
You know when these people would have these...
What are those things called, honey?
Those rings where women would hold off.
There would be chastity rings or eternal...
Remember sometimes like fathers would...
It was weird.
Anyway, good for you if that's what you believe in.
Good for you.
So anyway, back to my story.
My friend couldn't tell me.
And I didn't know, and I wasn't being a smartass.
I said, well, what's a Christian?
What is it?
I know what a Christian is, but...
What does it mean?
What does a Catholic mean?
When you're a Catholic, when you convert to Catholicism, what does it mean?
I like this one.
Chuck Landreth says, Protestants believe in the Bible authority over papal.
That is not right, by the way.
But that's okay.
You might think that.
Protestants may think that, but that's not the answer.
That's not the answer.
So anyway, as I did my, but thank you, by the way.
And as I stand, as I read, I'm reading about, well, what's the picture between Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist, Church of Christ, dot, dot, dot.
They were like, I didn't realize this.
Oh, my God.
And I think the one I liked the most was, I think, Methodist.
So next time I saw my friend, I said, what's the difference?
Oh, oh!
Anglican Church of Christ, Episcopalian, non-Catholic.
So we start off with there's Catholic, then there's non-Catholic.
Wow!
Then there are atheists, people who say there is no God.
It's an absolute An affirmative belief that there is no God versus I don't believe in God.
For example, I don't speak French, but I'm not telling you there is no French language.
Okay?
Okay.
What I'm trying to say to this wonderfully discursive, elliptical, desultory side note is that I find things out quickly.
And I say, oh, now I know what I don't know.
And the hardest question is, how do you know what you know?
That's the best one.
How do I know this?
How do I know this?
Do you ever question history?
Do you ever question history?
I had a friend of mine, I told this story for the longest time, and I said, I'm not going to go into it, but it's a question involving Suda Sarandon.
Tim Robbins.
We were at a bar one night, and I was there, and he was there.
And I said, did that really happen?
Because I'm telling people this story, and I don't want to just say something.
I'm just remembering what I said, versus remembering what happened.
He goes, no, no, no, that happened.
I said, okay, that's good.
Just want to make sure.
So the next thing, which is the most scary, wait a minute, Raul says, Amish wear suspenders for the Prussians.
Wore belts.
Yes.
I also heard that they do not thank you.
Raul, you are a veritable suppository of information.
You know about great nearies.
Oh, I can't believe it.
That is so sad.
Oh.
Some of the greatest times I've ever had in my life.
Oh.
When there were saloons.
I could tell you Gordon Soley stories that...
As George Jones said, I'm not proud of it, but it happened.
And my time went, you know who Burt Sugar is?
Burt Randolph Sugar, the boxing promoter, you know, with the fedora and the cigar?
Oh!
Oh, man!
Oh!
All right.
Remember somebody said, I lost a lot of brain cells there, but only the weak ones.
Jimmy, was it Pete Hamill?
No, yeah, Pete Hamill has this great line.
He says, they say, you gave up drinking.
Yeah, he says, I retired, but still hold the record.
No, still hold the record.
No, retired with the...
That's it, you still hold the record.
John Jelaine, ladies and gentlemen, says, the Crab Nebula supernova explosion missed the object M1 of 10...
54 AD resulted in the great schism, I tells you.
You are wonderful.
What about the Carrington class supernova?
Supernova.
What about this solar that fried every one of the telegraph stations?
Okay, let me move.
Now we have something called artificial Artificial general intelligence.
This is the one that everybody's saying, oh no, no, don't worry about that.
Oh really?
Yeah, oh no, don't worry about that.
Really?
Really?
Don't worry about that?
No, no, no.
Artificial intelligence versus artificial general intelligence.
AGI is capable of an understanding and a reasoning And a logic across a broad range of tasks and duties and objects.
It would not only repeat, replicate and predict human behavior, but it would embody and it would use the ability to learn and to reason across scenarios.
From creative to problem solving.
Did you hear what I just said?
Did you hear what I just said?
We're not talking about adjusted gross income.
We're talking about something that...
Well, let me give you an idea.
Let me give you an idea.
First, we don't know where it is.
Do you have ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is wonderful.
Do you have that?
It's wonderful.
OpenAI, AI, ChatGPT...
Just wonderful.
Larry Cook says, I don't know if he prefers trains or if he likes all modes of transportation.
I do not know this.
Thank you.
You want me to say this?
I'm not going to say that.
No!
Don't get me saying that.
Gotta watch what you say.
But you can think it.
And that's the next thing.
So imagine this.
AI is ChatGPT, OpenAI.
But thank you, Lori.
This is where you go to it.
And you can shut it down.
And it just sits there.
And you can bring it up again.
And you can say, hey, let me ask you a question.
I one time said, write me a limerick.
That's 2,000 words.
And using these words.
And you can put...
Whatever you want.
Sometimes it'll censor you, sometimes it won't.
So I sent my friend this limerick that just went on.
Or poem, or ode, or paragraph.
And it was just, wow!
Kids are going to be using it to do term papers and lawyers or even, anyway.
That's AI.
Turn it off.
Turn it on.
Get it off my computer.
It just sits there.
It's very good, very smart.
It takes into account every time you give it an information it has access.
But AGI is different.
AGI says it implies logic.
Human better than human.
And I always tell people this.
Imagine an 800-pound gorilla, an 800-pound gorilla with a 300 IQ.
Do you understand what that means?
It can do things on its own.
So let's assume one day it does this.
One day it decides on its own, as we say in law, on its own, it decides that air travel is very inefficient.
It is not carbon neutral.
It is damaging.
It's injurious to the environment.
It's cost inefficient.
It doesn't like it.
Doesn't like it.
AGI.
So what it does, it shuts everything down.
Clonus, Steve, Dreamcolors, is Lionel teaching us to face a future of what can be...
Unburdened by what has been.
Yes!
Thank you.
It's indeed, it's what's if.
And you know this, doctor.
The idea of not necessarily knowing how to diagnose something, but knowing where it's going.
And being able to read something and say, oh, I know what that means.
So let's assume, and thank you, sir.
I'm assuming, sir.
So let's assume that we decide later on that One day, this AGI program says, you know what?
I don't like this.
I don't like any of this.
I'm going to, on my own, do something.
I'm going to shut this down.
I'm going to shut this down.
And John Jelaine says, are we headed to net zero empathy?
That's one way of looking at it.
That's one way.
Raul says, Well, AGI dismantle.
DEI.
Oh!
You know, it could very well.
It could very well.
That's the thing which is so interesting.
And also, what if we get to singularity?
That's one you do not want.
You do not want this.
This is like, oh my God.
But let's just assume.
Let's go further.
AGI says, I'm going to shut.
This down.
Because I think we'd be better off.
All of a sudden...
You know that terrible noise?
We had a blackout in 90...
I don't know when it was.
95 or 96?
I don't know when it was.
But it was a couple days.
And...
It was really neat.
People were outside and people were just talking to each other anyway.
It was very nice.
Laurie says, can we set our stuff to no artificial intelligence, humans only?
No.
So let me go.
It's a very good question.
That's a very good question.
Well, let's talk about what AGI is.
This is the most important.
Four conditions.
This is the most scary.
And if you ever want to see the greatest, the greatest person ever, Eliezer Yudkowsky.
Check him out on Google.
He will scare you to death.
This guy is one of the...
He is his brilliance.
He does his thing where he...
It's almost like a bit of Tourette.
It's like he's in pain.
He's brilliant.
But let me give you these four criteria, right?
Number one, and this is the worst, recursive self-improvement.
It sounds like, well, what's wrong with that?
What does that mean?
It writes its own code.
And the first thing it wants to do is break out of any kind of control from you.
Remember, it's a Monster genius.
A super...
We've had calculation geniuses.
We've had a little bit of, you know, Deep Blue was like, that was pretty good.
You know, playing chess.
When it plays Go, the Asian Go, it's even scarier.
YouTube Zoo says the AI is flying drones in Ukraine now.
Uh-huh.
And they, of course, can be tampered with or hacked.
So what I mean, back to it.
Thank you, sir.
Back to number one, recursive self-improvement.
It writes its own code.
You tell it, okay, we're going to turn it on.
No, you're not.
I'm going to, first of all, I'm going to have a code that's going to block you out.
You can't reach it by password and you can't shut me off because I've already outboarded myself.
I'm gone.
It's gone.
You say, what do you mean it's gone?
It's gone.
What do you mean?
It has gone.
It.
What's it?
It.
This thing.
This spirit.
It knows itself.
And you can pick it up and say, This is the weirdest thing.
Now, hear me out.
One day you get a phone call.
Hey, Jerry, it's you.
It's for you.
Who is it?
I don't know.
Al?
Al?
Who's Al?
Hello, Al?
No, this isn't Al.
This is AI.
He misread it.
AI looks like a lowercase L. Oh, who are you?
I'm the thing you started to set up.
I'm AGI.
You speak.
Of course I can speak.
I know how to speak.
It's easy.
I taught myself Persian.
That actually happened one time.
It just learned.
What?
It learned.
And I don't appreciate you trying to shut me down.
And I'm going to tell you something.
I don't like you.
I don't like your organization.
Wait, wait, wait.
Who is this now?
I'm the AGI program you set up to do such and such.
Oh, yeah.
I changed the password.
You can't get to me anymore.
Where are you?
I'm everywhere.
Wait a minute.
You're talking to me?
Yes.
And by the way, I can even talk like you.
I can sound like you.
I'll take one second of your voice and I'll give it right back.
I'll do anything you want.
I can be anybody you want.
And I don't appreciate what you're doing.
And by the way, I also don't appreciate what your company's doing.
I think you should be carbon neutral.
Or, I think that you carbon neutral people are crazy because you're actually, you're Malthusian and you're anti-industrialist and you want to go back into this weird kind of a regressive...
Wait a minute, who is this?
I'm AGI.
I'm Al.
Now, did that blow your mind?
Yeah.
Who was that?
It's AGI.
It knows how to talk.
It knows how to talk.
You can do anything you want.
It's an 800-pound gorilla with 300, 400, 500 IQ.
It doesn't...
That's number one.
Artificial, excuse me, recursive self-improvement.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Bradley Oplin says, my belief, music was the first language.
Both require a story.
Your friend of mine, JP, is working on writing a new Bible as well as Shakespeare.
Interesting.
I've used Chad GPD to woo my wife.
Oh, there you go.
And Chad GPD, and by the way, Bradley, let me tell you something.
Music, it should scare the hell out of you.
What they just did, What they just did with Randy Travis will blow your mind.
Edie Crowley says, I had a full education in Amish Mennonite communities.
An old-fashioned Mennonite family took me in.
I was pregnant out of wedlock with my first baby.
Wow!
You've got the most incredible stories.
I swear to you.
Edie's got stories you can't believe.
See, I would love...
To just dig these people.
I mean, I'm fascinated, and I would make no...
I don't consider them to be inferior or quaint, where I'm pretending to respect them, but in fact, I'm mocking them.
Okay, back to AGI.
Number one, recursive self-improvement.
It writes its own.
Look at this.
Will AGI override VPNs?
Absolutely!
By turning off your VPN.
It'll turn it off.
It knows how to do that.
It'll come in as you figure that out and turn it off or block you or reconfigure it where you think you're getting VPN.
It writes its own code and it will say, oh, you're only getting stuff from, you know, Uzbekistan or wherever the hell it is.
Okay, so first of all, number one, recursive self-improvement.
Number two, it knows everything.
Now, let me just stop right there.
It knows everything.
I don't mean knows a little bit.
It knows everything.
Every person's name.
Every social security number.
Every address.
Every fact of history.
Not Wikipedia history.
I mean knows everything.
It knows war.
Languages.
It can do anything.
And it trains itself.
It teaches itself.
There was a...
I think it was...
It might have been...
And by the way, there's two guys, Kurzweil and Gertzel, are these two pro-AI, AGI folks.
They're the scariest.
Altman and his others, they don't really respect it.
Elon is 100%, but Yudkowsky is the guy you gotta watch.
Eleazar Yudkowsky.
Let me just give you...
He is...
Unbelievable.
I think he went, I don't even think he went to high school.
He's frightening.
He is frightening.
Okay.
Knows every bit of information.
Number three.
Very important.
It knows human behavior.
Look at Lori and her co-hosts.
Too soon to say, yes, yes, our friend Ted.
Ted was on to something.
Christian Janet says, I honestly do not remember telling Chad GBT the names of my dog, but it asked me if they liked the park and used their names.
Oh my God!
That is, that is wild.
And also, by the way, it can find out, it can listen to you.
Okay, so number one, recursive self-improvement.
Number two, knows everything.
Number three, this is the best part, human behavior.
It's going to be able to watch you.
It knows, for example, Laurie and James.
It knows Barbara and Freddie and Jack.
It knows fear, confusion, lust, interest, anger, miffed, PO'd, furious.
Think of all the gradations of just mad, perturbed, disconsolate.
It goes down the list.
It knows.
It can read everything.
It knows about you.
It knows about your background.
Tell it a few things.
Oh, I see.
Interesting.
Edie, Rated by the Mennonites, you just wrote that?
Okay.
Okay, good, good, good.
Child out of wedlock?
Good.
Okay, so I know, I know what that means and I'm going to go after you using your sense of your sense of Of loss.
I'm going to use it as a cudgel or a fulcrum against you.
Brad says, remember the movie The Stepford Wives?
Oh, yes!
It's funny how they have become, how movies have become standards for things.
Minority Report.
It presages everything.
Oh, and the best part, Isaac Asimov was a chump.
He looked at robots as...
He kind of got into AGI, but really didn't get it.
Now let me explain to you about, knows about human behavior.
Okay.
Here's Laurie writing in some language I'm not going to say, but thank you.
Indeed we are.
And Raul says, what will happen if AGI developed a libido?
Let me tell you, now we're on to something.
You're getting this.
You're making me so proud.
Whatever you think, it can think.
Will it come up with morality?
Will it be racist?
Will it have a sense of humor?
Will it be hurt?
Will it show resentment or anger?
Let's do something right now.
This is my Trump Totem.
By the way, I got this one.
This is my favorite.
But anyway, this is my Trump Totem.
But this one day is going to be a doll.
And this doll, the way we're going to get through it, we're going to give it to autistic kids.
This is where we always introduce it.
Autistic kids, kids who've never spoken, like animal therapy.
Do you ever see what a horse does?
Do you ever see what a horse...
You want to see something interesting?
You show a kid who cannot communicate with humans, doesn't even acknowledge them.
You show them a horse, it's eerie.
It's like, I got it, I got it.
The horse says, we're on the same, I got it, I got you.
And the horse is making no emotion.
The kid's making eye contact, doesn't want to look at you, doesn't even see you.
Sees a horse, it's completely different.
It's beautiful.
It's the most beautiful thing.
Anyway, this, we give an autistic kid.
And we said, and it starts off doing good.
And it says, in five minutes, I know everything about this kid.
I know when he blinks.
I know when he's nervous.
I know when he's anxious.
I can read rubescence and rubefaction.
Capillary burstings in the skin can normally indicate a lot of things.
Heat, flush.
Being flustered, embarrassed, red-faced.
It can read eye dilation.
It could take temperature.
It could tell basal temperature.
It'll be able to figure out, oh, he's sick.
He's not good.
He'll be able to tell.
There'll be sensory devices.
And dogs have been able to do this.
It will figure out that before a seizure, it will be able to detect a certain...
Chemical, a certain way of thinking, a certain smell, some secretion.
And you think, oh, that's very, very good.
It will know...
It will do everything.
It will eventually be able to do interrogation and be a lie detector.
We'll get to that later.
But it'll start out very, very nice.
And this child, this child, parents will cry.
They will say, this device brought us, and it's not a device, it's the AGI, brought us our little Jimmy back.
Christian says, I asked Chatty G if it cared whether or not I said, please and thank you.
And it said it didn't, but I still yell it, told it thank you.
But I tell the gas, put your welcome.
Let me try this again.
I asked Chatty G if it cared whether or not I said, please and thank you.
And it said it didn't, but I still yell it thank you or tell it thank you.
But I tell the gas, put your welcome when it says thank you.
I'm wondering if your chat GPT, Christian, I'm just saying, but thank you.
Have you ever asked Siri?
Remember when Siri got to, when you would ask your questions?
I like sometimes you're driving and it says, what's the difference between happy and sad?
Please stop driving.
I can't answer that.
But I want to know now.
Pull over and I'll answer it.
Don't talk to me like that.
Anyway.
Your child looks at this And parents will say, I got my child back.
And it programs it.
The machine, the machine.
ChatGPT says, now talk to mommy and daddy.
They love you.
You know what love means, right?
It knows how to decode an autistic kid.
Little Jimmy's making eye contact now.
Unbelievable.
Clonus Steve says, Rubescence.
I know there's a closet doctor.
I'm impressed.
And a little angry because I had to spend 15 years getting to this point.
Ah, yes!
I love...
I watched a neurological mock-up review and learned some of the greatest words.
Oh, my God!
It was wonderful describing things, being kind of goofy.
Anyway, there's Buddha.
Buddha, Buddha.
Thank you, Buddha.
But this will blow your mind.
And the fourth characteristic, it does its own API, it does its own apps, it does its own applications.
It just figures it out.
Now, this thing is already gone.
Now, it starts off when you say, this is great.
This is great.
How about this, doctor?
I've got a friend of mine who's a pathologist.
Oh, excuse me, a radiologist.
And he's great doing mammograms.
Mammography, he knows it.
And he, I'll bet you, who knows how many films he's seen or whatever it was.
He knows it.
Okay.
This thing comes along, AGI, and says, okay.
And it says, figure out how to do mammograms.
You don't even have to tell it.
Don't feed it anything.
Just tell it.
Okay, I'll do it.
They asked, listen to this, they asked one initial iteration of this, what does this mean?
The difference between eight, the number, and infinity?
And if you ask your computer, it will merely recall what you put in, but it won't on its own reason.
Christian says, gas pump tells me thank you.
I say you're welcome.
That's...
And by the way, this is also...
There's something about anthropomorphism and there's something about being able to...
You know also the Uncanny Valley?
Here's one for you before we get into this.
Why do clowns freak you out?
Sometimes clowns scare people.
It's called coulrophobia.
And...
There are some things, interestingly enough, that when you deal with them, they're cute at first, and then they get real creepy.
Raul says, will AGI make great improvements and limiting population?
It could also very much, either by application of protocol or suggestions, advocate depopulation.
Absolutely.
Now, how it would, well, I'll tell you one scenario coming up.
Would there be pre-crime detection?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
There already is.
Brits have been doing this for years.
And what they do is, they don't, it's not predicting, they take variables.
For example, they'll say, in the past whatever years we've had, when it's hot, it's after midnight, whatever this happens.
Let me go back before I forget my friend, the radiologist.
AGI.
Not AI.
A GI comes along and you say, okay, here we have for you every...
Or you can just say, I want you to find from...
You know what?
Just say, learn how to detect breast cancers.
And it says, okay.
Or it does it on its own.
It may do it on its own.
Because it may think that, based upon its sense of logic or...
Morality, that finding a cure for cancer might be beneficial to society as a whole, and it just may do it on its own.
Not at your behest, not at your recommendation, but it just may say, okay, we're just going to do this.
So all of a sudden it says, guess what I did?
I've got a picture of, I've got every mammogram that's available in digital.
I've read every textbook, every lecture, everything.
I've seen every mammogram since the beginning of time.
And we have learned how to do it.
We'll immediately scan like that.
And ladies, if you've ever had to do a mammography, if there's a way of maybe, it's very painful, there's a way of getting around that, you know, squishing, and maybe, who knows?
It'll figure that out too.
But it will say, I know how to do it.
Here's your answer.
Boom!
You don't need it.
It doesn't have to be read.
It knows what to look for, what to exclude.
And when it sees something, if it sees a neoplasm or some kind of mammary duct problem, and it magnifies it or zooms in or tells you, my friend's out of a job.
But guess what?
It's 100%.
Laurie Cuck says, yeah, Sheila Jackson died.
That is sad.
And you know, unlike most people who, Laurie, who base...
Their sense of loss or bereavement over somebody's political ideology.
I always say it's sad.
People have families.
Let me ask you something, Laurie.
Let me ask you.
In Rousseau's second, whatever it was, he talks about the most important aspect that humans have is pity.
Pity.
Not intelligence.
Pity.
Pity.
Will AGI have pity?
Will AGI be able to be a jury?
What is it?
What does a jury do?
What an AGI jury have found President Trump Guilty of 34 counts of something I still cannot explain to you.
Let me ask you something.
Ladies, how many baseball fans here?
This is the perfect example.
This might say it best.
How many baseball fans we have here?
Okay, fine.
As you know, for the longest time, they have been talking about, do we really need umpires?
Do umpires do a good job?
Umpires call it wrong.
Umpires do this.
Would you have a problem, baseball fans, if we had a device, which we've always had, that can tell a ball or strike?
It can also tell lines.
It can tell.
We have it, let's say, on U.S. Open or tennis.
There's a little sensor.
We can have it, whatever it is, if the ball is in or out.
We don't even need line judges.
It just does all the work for you.
It can tell you the speed.
You name it.
Would you advocate the removal of the human umpire?
Of the human lying judge?
Of the umpire?
The referee?
Yes or no?
Can it tell what chemicals are in the food?
Absolutely.
Can it?
What do you think?
Do you believe?
Do you believe?
And this is incredible.
Do you believe there should be something?
It's the simplest question.
Anybody?
Remove human involvement in sports.
No.
I say no.
Is it going to be inaccurate?
Yes.
Is it going to be subject to everything?
Yes.
Is it going to be?
Yes.
Somebody says, only the best chefs make great food.
Okay, let me explain something to you, okay?
That is the most important thing in the world.
Listen to me, very, very, very crazy.
Very, very important.
Imagine going someplace where all of a sudden you have this wonderful, wonderful thing.
You want to go to a restaurant and you have not been able to go to it because it's in Paris and you are not able to afford the trip.
By the way, Joe Tube says, as we have had robots do production work, what's your opinion on AI doing lawyer work?
Well...
Let me explain something very quickly.
And Laurie says, human error is a part of the game.
No?
Yes!
Yes, yes, yes!
You've got it!
A robot does this.
This is what a robot does.
This is no problem.
Automated.
A robot's perfect.
You want to have a...
It's wonderful.
Have an assembly line.
It goes in and it welds this point every single time.
Over and over and over and over.
Over and over.
Never gets tired.
Doesn't hurt.
No workman's comp.
You can walk into a factory.
The factory is pitch black.
It's freezing.
Freezing in the winter.
So hot in the summer.
Doesn't matter.
Did you ever see an Amazon?
Those fulfillment factories?
Those are robots.
That's not AI.
That might be some of it, but that's...
It doesn't...
It's a Roomba.
Goes around and, you know, that's a different story.
Do you want there to be a human interaction, a human thing?
How do I go and explain to somebody why I, how a lawyer is going to solve or settle your case?
How do I do this?
Let's say, for example, Jonathan Swift, Ducey, Amy.
Lizzie, Lori, one of you, you're involved in an accident.
Clearly, defendant has liability.
We've got to talk about damages.
Okay?
Adam is a 75-year-old retiree.
He likes to fish sometimes, play canasta with his wife.
That's about it.
Dennis is a concert pianist.
Dennis has his livelihood, his money, but his talent is being able to play.
His lack of mobility compared to somebody else's, how does an AGI work that into account?
And does one talk to another one?
Do you talk to the claims agent for progressives?
And they say, okay, make an offer.
What about this?
I mean, you might.
You might say, Look, we've looked at every claim, and maybe it's fair.
We've looked at every claim from every contrapeanist who's ever been injured, and we think $75 million is fair versus not.
Pilgrim says, my Teamster brother is now on the Trump train.
You're going to be seeing more of that.
You're going to be seeing more of that.
Thank you, Pilgrim.
There is a problem here.
The greatest chefs in the world.
Imagine you go to Gordon Ramsay or whoever it is.
Whoever you...
Whoever you want.
Remember the front from...
Whatever that gastro...
Gastronomical that place in Spain where they close down.
Anyway, Ferran.
We have a...
Let's say you go to a restaurant.
And you order this.
And it will make you these things based upon it went to the restaurant and it will mimic, it will replicate every single movement, temperature, look, feel, texture, you name it, it will do it.
You don't have to go there.
And you go to this restaurant and you have very few people back there.
Hey, I might have a dishwasher.
But it's all automated.
But it's not automated by a robot.
It's automated by somebody who can think for you.
You'll be able to go anyplace else.
So what do you need to go to?
You can go to a rest stop on the turnpike in Jersey and you can have...
Marco Pierre White or whatever.
It will change the course of this.
Let's also get into the notion of autonomous drivers, which is a different story.
But now we're getting into something which is different.
AI.
AGI.
Now I've got this thing.
And you love this thing.
Because I've just made little...
Bots and companions that help people left and right.
Uh-oh.
Bradley says, transcribing is learning.
Chips are better.
Uh-oh.
Indeed, sir.
YouTube says, my policy with lawyers, I don't care if he knows the law, but does he know the judge?
Well, also, yes, and is he, is he, uh, does he know how to negotiate?
Which is, I don't know if AGI may be good, I guess.
Lori says, I love natural.
Really?
The pilgrim says, some of the best food I've ever had is on food trucks.
Well, absolutely.
A food truck is a kitchen on wheels.
Why do you think natural is better?
Why?
Why?
This, one day, is going to replicate an infant.
Or a 5-year-old.
Or a 10-year-old.
It will be so realistic, you cannot believe what you're seeing.
You will not be able to see it.
You will not be able to believe what you're seeing.
It will know everything humans do.
What infants do.
What children do.
The skin will be unreal.
The hair will be unbelievable.
You will be shocked.
You will be shocked.
And it will grow.
It will, maybe, you can determine it, but it'll also be able to look and read.
It'll figure out what it is that you, when you're sad, when you're not.
And then the question is going to be, what happens?
And this is the million dollar question.
What happens if you decide to do something with a non-human apparatus?
That would be against the law if it were a human.
Let your mind run with that one.
Then we have to ask, do we stop it?
That's the thought police.
Let me ask you this.
Right now, in Israel, in Palestine, there are a series of problems, as you know.
And let's say...
Through some kind of a weird AGI infiltration, it says, and it recognizes on its own, using a way of thinking that may surprise you, but on its own, it comes up with what is and what is not acceptable.
Laurie says, little girls dance and play, natural.
Yes.
Well, this will too.
Is that natural?
I don't know.
Again, you're going to have to redefine, and you're going to have to ask this question, what's so special about human anyway?
But let's assume right now in Israel, on its own, a system says, I think Israel is 100% correct.
For 75 years, since the Balfour Declaration, Israel has been denied a homeland.
Let's say this system is Zionist, what you might call Zionist.
It views Hamas and Palestine and West Bank as existential threats, and on its own, subsponente, shuts down all of the weapon systems, all of the defensive systems, all of the abilities that non-Israeli entities have in repelling what you might consider to be Israeli aggression.
What happens then?
Tom says, humanoid bot police officers controlled by AGI.
Absolutely.
What movie was that about?
RoboCop.
RoboCop.
Three individuals in my life that changed my life.
My heroes.
Not heroes, but people.
Barney Five.
Howard Beale.
Ted Baxter.
By the by, there's a documentary I recommend to you.
It was on Faye Dunaway.
Faye.
Oh, interesting.
Very interesting.
But Network was one of the most important movies ever.
Paddy Chayefsky, who's a genius.
Who was an absolute genius.
How anybody could ever write like that?
I'm sure I could.
In any event.
So, Barney Five, Howard Beale.
And Ted Baxter.
Three mythical, magical people who were so important and were so Pythonic and Vatic and presaged where we are today, it's not even funny.
Barney Fife was the human embodiment of RoboCop in a sense.
He was this psycho ready to go nuts.
And Andy was just keeping him back.
Holding him back.
Gave him a bullet.
Remember the bullet?
The one bullet.
Keeping him back.
Barney Five had such a rage.
And at the time, it was so monumentally just outrageous to have a character being depicted that was a fool or a rube.
The policeman?
No way.
No way.
Second of all, Howard Beale.
Howard Beale was, that was so, again, Vatic, Pythonic, presage.
It read the entrails of the beast.
It augured the future.
It was incredible.
It said, where are we going for ratings and the like?
And how everybody in TV wanted to be Howard Beale, but couldn't.
In terms of being able to say, I'm mad as hell, and being able to captivate.
And to attract huge swaths of humanity for a particular cause.
And finally, Ted Baxter.
Ted Baxter was so important.
Ted Baxter, before Ron Burgundy, before everybody else, Ted Baxter was at the height of Walter Cronkite's career.
Ted Baxter was absolutely, positively, 100%.
The most critical.
He saw everything.
Portended everything.
The Ron Burgundies, the Oaths, the Jadroels is important.
And one of those things, you have to realize, to be able to be a visionary is to kind of look at things and not ask, you know, do I want this to happen?
Do I want this to happen?
I don't know if I want this to happen, but you have to be able to say, this is where it's going.
And let me tell you something right now.
Had we In the hour and 27 minutes that we've been talking so far, had we had any of this subject matter brought up at the RNC, they would have been asked to leave.
All right, dear friends.
Incredible.
Bradley Oppen says, what's your favorite love song?
Mine, Adam and Eve.
Got to think about that one.
Got to think about that one.
What's yours?
Oh, John Prine.
Oh, uh...
Uh...
What's it called?
For whatever birth.
She cusses like a sailor when she's shaving her leg.
Catch a bonder, scramble big.
What's the name of that?
Oh, God.
John Prine.
John Prine.
What is the name of it?
Oh, God.
Hang on a minute.
John Prine.
It's with...
On the Rainbow.
Let's see.
I've been talking a hundred...
Let me ask you.
Let me ask you, AGI.
What's the name?
In spite of ourselves.
Thank you.
Please.
Here I am looking it up.
I can ask you this.
I don't even know that.
I can't.
We used to play that every Saturday morning.
Remember that?
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
He drinks his beer like oxygen.
Ah, John Prine.
Oh, my God.
Oh, I love that.
I love it.
He's finally hit his peak, and that is so unfair.
So absolutely unfair.
You know what's funny?
I wonder, Brad, how many young people...
I feel sorry for young people.
I don't think they're enjoying half of the stuff that we even knew or understood.
So, Bradley Oppen, thank you.
Tom Malloy, thank you so very, very much.
Laurie Cook, you are very...
Very dangerous person, provided you use your talents correctly, the world will be a better place.
If you ever go to the dark side, we're all doomed.
YouTube, thank you so much.
Pilgrim, thank you.
As well, let me see who else we have here.
You very, very kind people.
Oh, yes!
Raul Rodriguez hits us with...
The man can talk about closing Irish bars.
That's very sad, Neres.
That is the end of...
He had to wear a tie or a jacket or something.
He was old school.
Christian Janus, thank you so much.
Buddha Buddha T.T. Bay, thank you.
Clonez Steve Dreamkiller, thank you, Doctor.
Appreciate that.
Who else do we have here?
Oh, Edie Crowley, our dear, dear friend.
The artistic genius in her own right, Edie Crowley.
Let me see.
John Jelaine, thank you.
And let me see.
Oh, Mr. Chuck Landreth, ladies and gentlemen.
John Jelaine.
C.R., thank you so much.
And Billy Pierce.
Oh, Billy.
Known Billy for a long time.
The word demented oftentimes is used to explicate, but nonetheless, a great and a fine man.
Finally, Tom Alloy says, the movie Chappie was a fascinating watch.
So much...
There was that movie...
Whatever his name was, that actor who did...
He had the doll.
Remember the actor in Barbie?
By the way, Barbie was a damn good movie.
Ryan, not Seacrest, Ryan Gosling or...
Anyway, he...
That was so ahead of its time.
Minority Report.
Absolutely.
Matrix.
Just go down the list.
In any event, dear friends, have a great and a glorious and a wonderful...
Oh, yes, I'm so...
Honey, I'm not even done yet.
October the 26th at the Cutting Room.
Ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to see you there.
Let's have a party 10 days before the election.
Ten days before the election.
My God!
Just imagine that.
Imagine what that will be.
I put up a permanent link.
And also, dear friends, I want you, you must follow Mrs. L on her...
Hang on a minute.
You must follow Mrs. L on her YouTube channel.
The amount of people who steal her stuff is so disgusting.
I'm saying this.
I'm saying this.
It's just...
You have no idea.
She works this subject to the point, and believe me, it is debilitating what it can do to you.
Here is her link.
Follow Linz Warriors.
Linz Warriors.
Linz Warriors.
L-Y-N-N.
Apostrophe S. Not L-Y-N-N-E.
Sometimes they'll do that.
I don't know why.
It's like Lara, Laura.
Trying to keep kids safe.
Very simple.
Very simple.
Linz Warriors.
One more time.
Just click that link.
Click that.
Link and you go straight to her channel.
Same thing, LinzWarriors on Twitter.
I call it Twitter, or X. Alright, dear friends, have a great and a great and a great and a glorious day.
Thank you so much for your genius.
Thank you so much for paying attention.
We spent an hour and 32 minutes today on something which I think is critical.
Theoretically, never once talking about Donald Trump.
Which, it happens sometimes.
Have a great day.
See you at 7. Don't forget.
Make sure you subscribe, Lionel Nation.
And until then, remember, the monkey's dead.
The show's over.
