	Welcome to Bright Teon Broadcast News for Wednesday, October 22nd, 2025.
	I'm Mike Adams.
	Thank you for joining me today.
	And I've got Andy Sheckman coming up as the featured interview today because, of course, Gold and Silver took a nosedive.
	Pretty big one, actually.
	Although, in the overnight trading, it looks like recovery has already begun.
	So silver plunged almost $4 in one day.
	And it's very clear that there's a strategy happening.
	And both Andy Sheckman and I believe that Tom Luongo, who I've interviewed, who also is a chemist, by the way, he and I have a shared background of lab chemistry.
	It's kind of interesting.
	But Tom Luongo says that Trump is at war with the city of London.
	And part of the strategy of that war is to cause a financial collapse of the British Empire, which of course waged war against Trump with the Russian dossier.
	It's the British Empire that also censored me.
	They ran the censorship lists through the NGOs that had big tech deplatform a bunch of people.
	They ran the dirty dozen censorship list during COVID, by the way.
	It's the British Empire that ran the false flags in Ukraine to blame Russia and to try to escalate war with Russia because of course the British leadership, they want to exterminate their own young men to prevent them from rising up against them because a revolt is practically forming in the UK because of the corruption and the total treason and betrayal of the British leadership.
	So what you saw in the plunging silver price in particular, according to Andy Sheckman, as you'll hear today, at least as I understand it, that was all designed to cheapen the price of silver temporarily so that in America,
	our banks and our hedge funds, etc., you know, the big investment houses and so on, and those connected to Trump could acquire physical silver more cheaply, dive into a bunch of contracts to take delivery of that silver, thereby depriving London of that silver, and they know the price is going to bounce right back up.
	But they sold a bunch of silver contracts here to lower the price so they could work through their other shenanigans to acquire physical silver to get into delivery contracts through a mechanism that Andy will explain in the interview that has an advantage to the West, but it punishes, it punishes the city of London.
	So that's the explanation for this.
	And as I'm recording, silver's already bounced back.
	It's up 50 cents.
	It's almost $49.
	And it looks like it's going to continue to climb because the fundamentals are in place.
	There's fundamentally much more global demand for gold and silver.
	And that's why even these temporary efforts to hammer it down, even drastically, they just don't hold.
	They don't hold.
	So that interview is coming up.
	And honestly, I think it's the best interview that Andy and I have ever done together.
	And we were really energetic.
	And I had to tell him halfway through the interview, Andy, I'm not yelling at you.
	I'm yelling at the world.
	I'm yelling at the situation.
	And Andy was great, very knowledgeable.
	Again, you're going to love this interview coming up.
	Oh, and that reminds me, I need to tell you that next week, I will not be doing any interviews because we're moving the studio.
	So our new studio is ready.
	I mean, ready, except for the fact that we got to move everything to it.
	And we're going to take one week and hope that that's good.
	If it's not, then the following week, you know, we might have to cancel a couple interviews there too.
	I'm not sure.
	Hopefully it'll all work out.
	Hopefully all the display panels will work and everything, but I'll keep you posted.
	Nevertheless, next week I will have no interviews.
	So my broadcast will be quite a bit shorter for one week during that move.
	But it'll be totally worth it because, oh, you're going to love the new studio.
	And finally, this is the studio that has the kitchen in it.
	One corner of it is dedicated to a kitchen set where I can make smoothies.
	And I can show you on camera the smoothies and like my smoothie, et cetera.
	So we're going to do that and you're going to absolutely love it.
	Can't wait.
	So I'll keep you posted.
	Okay, here's some other news that's a little bit disturbing.
	You know, the interview that I ran yesterday with Jim White and Amanda McKnight, we were talking about the Montana state prison system and how they have been serving the prisoners really toxic water that has dozens of violations that are on the Montana government website that talk about exposing them to lead and I think it was nickel and thallium and
	this is crazy chemicals and some of them being heavy metals and other things.
	Well, a few hours after we did that interview, the Montana Department of Environmental Quality building was set on fire.
	It was set on fire, obviously an inside false flag job, because that's where they house all the water records for the Montana state prisons.
	And I believe, and James believes also, that somebody on the inside was trying to destroy the smoking gun evidence of their crimes against the American prisoners being held there in Montana.
	So they burned down the storage of the records.
	Yeah, that just happened, apparently.
	At least that's what I'm being told.
	I didn't see the fire myself.
	Just goes to show you, you know, the power of this show.
	We reach a lot of people.
	And sometimes when we start to expose corruption, then those, you know, the power brokers in those positions of corruption, they want to cover the tracks.
	So they'll just set fire to buildings.
	You know, it's just unbelievable.
	But there you go.
	That's how you know you're over the target when they start lighting up buildings.
	Okay, and some other things today.
	There's a big breakthrough by the Chinese AI company called DeepSeek that just released a new model that allows AI to have long-term memories now.
	And the memories are achieved through compressed images that, well, the images contain the memories.
	Yeah.
	So pretty soon you're going to see AI models having much longer-term memory capabilities.
	Now, if you use our AI model right now at brighteon.ai or brightu.ai, it's the same thing at the moment.
	It doesn't have much of a memory.
	And that's actually on purpose.
	I may extend the memory of it a little bit.
	So it coming up, it could remember like the last three or four chats, you know, three or four posts and answers.
	But I don't want to give it an extended memory because it burns up a lot of tokens with all that context of the memories of every question and every answer before, you know?
	And since it's free, we can't just have an unlimited memory.
	It would cost too much.
	We couldn't fund it.
	However, this new breakthrough by DeepSeek will allow memories to be stored in about one-tenth the current space in terms of tokens.
	Tokens are the units that language models use.
	And this is such a big breakthrough that it could really accelerate the race towards AGI, which is artificial general intelligence.
	So I've got a special report on that coming up.
	I will play that for you in a little bit.
	All right, another programming note.
	I also interviewed Naomi Wolf for, well, about her book, The Pfizer Papers, and the deadly nature of the mRNA injections and Trump cozying up with Pfizer, which is insane.
	I mean, he's really thrown the American people under the bus and just I don't know why Trump wants to surround himself with people who I see as the worst criminals against humanity, but that's who Trump invites over for dinner, you know?
	It's like, hey, a genocidal dinner at the White House.
	What could go wrong?
	Anyway, my interview with Naomi or Dr. Wolf, as she's known, PhD, that will be running on Friday is the current schedule.
	So watch for that on Friday.
	Okay, now I've got another special report to play for you right now on the topic of Amazon.com, you know, Amazon.
	Well, there was a document leaked that shows that they plan to automate 600,000 jobs and replace 75% of their workforce with machines.
	Oh, yeah.
	This is going to be interesting.
	It's just what I was talking about.
	So let's go to that report right now, and then we'll continue on the other side.
	So an internal document from Amazon was leaked to the New York Times.
	And in that document, Amazon says that they're going to replace 600,000 human jobs with automation, you know, robots for the most part.
	And they're going to do that between now and the year 2033.
	And this is going to save them more than $10 billion.
	It's going to save them about $0.30 per package in terms of fulfillment costs.
	And this will cause some severe backlash from the public.
	So they even have a strategy to try to improve their corporate image by doing things like, you know, not calling the robots robots, but instead saying they're more like coworkers that work alongside humans.
	So they're going to be called cobots.
	Yeah.
	That won't make you want to strangle them any less, by the way.
	I mean, the bots, not the Amazon executives.
	Maybe you want to strangle them, too, but don't resort to violence.
	So the cobots are going to replace the humans.
	So we are looking at, again, 600,000 jobs that are currently in the Amazon ecosystem, mostly fulfillment jobs.
	But there are some other types of jobs, you know, warehouse logistics and operations, quality control, probably maintenance and so on.
	Those jobs will also be replaced by robots.
	And here we go.
	I've been talking about this for quite some time.
	You know, the last couple of years.
	Every once in a while, I'll roll out a podcast about the coming robot revolution and how millions of human jobs are going to be replaced.
	And it's coming soon.
	And there's always, like, somebody posts a comment on my videos, like, oh, it's never going to happen.
	You know, the robots will never replace humans.
	Yes, it is.
	Amazon has just admitted it, and they did not deny the existence of this document.
	They replied to the New York Times.
	They just said that, well, the document doesn't have the full context of our plan.
	But they did not deny that the document was real, because it is real.
	So they are going to replace 600,000 jobs.
	Now, it's not just Amazon, obviously.
	As this robot technology spreads across society, it's going to replace millions of jobs in grocery stores for re-shocking grocery store shelves.
	Fulfillment centers beyond Amazon.
	You can obviously see that.
	Logistics hubs.
	So, for example, let's say Home Depot or Lowe's or any large retailer, they have logistics hubs where they have shipments come in from manufacturers.
	And then those shipments are divvied up into trucks that go out to deliver the goods to the specific retail stores to restock them.
	And at a place like Home Depot, that truck will arrive every day, you know, or almost every day.
	Same thing with grocery stores.
	Same thing with restaurants.
	So the logistics is going to be of everything.
	Logistics of food, of hardware, of building supplies, you know, lumberyards, everything.
	That's going to be taken over by robots more and more in the years ahead.
	It won't be instant, but it will accelerate very quickly beginning next year.
	But especially in 2027 and 2028, you're going to really see a lot of robots taking over.
	But behind the scenes, these won't be robots that you see.
	Like in the grocery stores, these will be the robots that scurry out at night at 3 a.m., you know, when the store is closed or nobody's shopping.
	And the robots are then restocking the shelves.
	You don't see them, but the next morning, hey, all the shelves are restocked.
	Everything looks great.
	So the robots will be behind the scenes, but they will be displacing real human jobs.
	And again, Amazon is going to replace about 75% of its human jobs with robots.
	So this is not a joke.
	It's not doom and gloom.
	You know, it's not some irrational doom or anything like that.
	I mean, this is actually happening.
	And it's happening in order to save costs and to improve reliability, because human packers are not always consistent, obviously.
	I've received packages from Amazon that are insane.
	Like, just defy logic.
	Like one time I received a box with, it's like a 50-pound bag of, organic goat food.
	And in that same box was a very delicate air filter that, of course, got completely crushed by the goat food.
	And it's like, well, you know, some idiot packed that.
	The AI systems won't make that mistake because they will actually think more than the humans do in fulfillment jobs anyway.
	So you're going to have millions of humans out of work.
	And importantly, they are unemployable.
	It's not like they can go to some other fulfillment center and find a job.
	It's like, hey, what's your resume?
	Oh, I worked five years on Amazon packing boxes.
	Oh, okay, we don't need that because we have a robot that does that.
	Do you have any other skills?
	Nope.
	Okay, have a nice day.
	That's how it's going to go.
	And right now, a lot of people who are in between jobs or who need a little bit of additional income, they might be an Uber driver or a Lyft driver, which for many people, you know, they can earn an extra 20 to 30 bucks an hour, whatever that comes out to, by using their vehicle.
	Well, that's going to be automated more and more.
	Not only Waymo, autonomous taxis, but also Tesla.
	And you're going to have autonomous vehicles nationwide that are rideshare type of programs where you can just call one of these vehicles to come get you and doesn't even have a driver.
	So the people that are displaced out of the Amazon jobs are not going to be able to pick up other jobs very easily at all unless they have more skills, skills that are complex for robots, too difficult.
	Skills like plumbing skills or welding or HVAC repair, things like that.
	That's going to be difficult for robots to take over for a few more years.
	So I think the smart people who come out of the Amazon fulfillment centers will go be a plumbing apprentice or something.
	Plumbing will have longevity because robots aren't even going to be able to climb down into the basements and the crawl spaces that plumbing requires.
	And robots also don't have the physical strength that plumbing requires sometimes with those giant plumbers wrenches.
	You got to torque that pipe fitting.
	Yeah.
	Robots won't be able to do that.
	There's not much torque.
	At least not yet.
	I don't want a robot with a lot of torque.
	It sounds like a danger, hazardous robot.
	In any case, this is the beginning of the labor takeover, the labor replacement by robots.
	And right now, already there's the cognitive replacement and takeover by robots that's happening across the board.
	It's almost every day that I hear about some other large company, big corporate giant in America that's either laying off thousands of people or halting hiring of people because they're using AI to replace those people.
	It's every day.
	And I've always said here, I've said, you know, the cognitive jobs will be replaced first, followed by a few years later, the labor jobs with the physical robots.
	And that's exactly how this is playing out.
	So the desk jobs, the cognitive jobs, by next year, more and more of those are going to be replaced in huge numbers.
	And then in 2027 and 28, you're going to see a lot more labor jobs replaced by robots.
	Now, the Open AI company just released a new AI-powered browser, initially just for Mac users.
	I don't know why they released it only on Mac, but they did.
	And the browser is called Atlas.
	Apparently, you can download it now.
	I don't use Mac, so I haven't been able to mess with this thing.
	I'm going to wait for the Windows or the Linux version, one or the other.
	But this browser has AI intelligence built into it, and you can just type instructions into it of what you want it to do.
	Like, you know, go to Amazon and find a bag of organic goat food and then order it and have it shipped and use this credit card.
	Just go do that.
	And the browser will do that for you.
	So this is a browser agent that is task-oriented, goal-oriented, but you give it the goal.
	And it can do all kinds of things.
	Like anything that you can do in a browser, this AI agent can do.
	And it's tied into your account with OpenAI, which does cost a little bit of money each month, by the way.
	But it will remember the things that you have asked for and maybe your interest areas and things like that.
	So it is probably spying on you, just to be clear.
	So, you know, don't use it for crazy things.
	I don't know.
	Go to the dark web and find an assassin's guide.
	You know, don't use it for that.
	Unless you love to have the FBI knocking on your door.
	Why are you searching for assassin's guides?
	How to make home explosives from, you know, baking soda and ammonia or whatever.
	I saw it in the Terminator movie.
	He went shopping at the grocery store and he made pipe bombs.
	How do you do that?
	Yeah, if you ask those kinds of questions, you might have law enforcement knocking on your door, just saying.
	So don't use it for stupid things.
	But if you want to use it for smart things and to help you automate your job a little bit more, that browser could be very useful.
	So there's an example of cognitive white-collar job or desk job automation that's just been released in the last day.
	And you're going to see more and more releases like this.
	Anthropic has browser plugins that it's working on and it's refining.
	And then, of course, Perplexity has its Comet browser, I think that's what it's called, that is also an AI browser.
	And so you're going to see more and more of this.
	And the old Google Chrome browser, that's going to become more and more obsolete unless Google adds AI intelligence to Chrome, which probably they will because they want to stay competitive in the AI space.
	But browsers are no longer going to be just like dumb terminals where you click what you want and you type what you want.
	They're going to be interactive systems that you'll find can help you do a lot of jobs much more efficiently.
	For example, if you have a very repetitive job that requires a browser, you'll be able to just tell the engine what to do, obviously, and it'll just go off and do that.
	And if that's your whole job, Monday through Friday, because you work for the government, let's say, you're like a grant approval officer.
	Yeah, you're going to be able to just hit go and take the whole day off and go play miniature golf or something.
	You come back and it'll be done.
	Oh, that's all in a day's work.
	Woo, good thing I have a solid pension in this federal job, you know?
	So that's here now, okay?
	So yes, yes, you're going to have millions of people displaced by this technology, either on the cognitive side or the labor side very quickly, just in the next few years.
	So I posted the following message.
	I said, prediction, the human worker revolts will become widespread before 2030.
	They will be revolting against automation robots that are replacing them everywhere.
	They will demand UBI payments.
	That's universal basic income.
	Or they will threaten to burn down the factories and fulfillment centers.
	The humans versus robot wars will soon follow.
	State governments will restrict weapons being carried by humans.
	I'm talking about states like California or Oregon, but will choose to arm the robots to protect corporate property from the, quote, pro-human terrorists.
	Thus, robots will have Second Amendment rights in places like California, but humans won't.
	Yeah, they're going to arm the robots.
	Of course they are.
	You know, to protect corporate property.
	But if you get caught with a gun, then you're a terrorist because you might be a threat to the robots.
	So this is coming.
	This is coming because you're going to have, again, millions of people displaced out of their jobs whose work skills are obsolete.
	There's nothing they can do in society, you know, for many people, that can't be done by a robot.
	And obviously fulfillment is one of those things.
	Now, on the positive side of this, let's say the AI utopia explanation, you'll hear those people say things like, well, those people will be free to pursue things that are more meaningful.
	They'll be free to create art and poetry or pursue a hobby or write a book or exercise more, have fitness, whatever.
	Yeah, great, except not when they're broke.
	I mean, why do people go to jobs?
	You think they just want to do that?
	No, because they need the money.
	They need the money to buy food and pay rent.
	So unless you're just giving them free money, hence the UBI, their life is still terrible.
	I mean, yeah, they have free time, but free time to be homeless.
	You know, that's not a solution.
	You have all the time in the world to live in a cardboard box on the sidewalk.
	Yeah, you can exercise all you want in the cardboard box.
	So the UBI is going to become a very popular demand from the displaced workers.
	And the UBI, of course, if the government gives in and says, yeah, let's just give everybody a few thousand dollars a month.
	And in fact, some people have called it a universal high income, a UHI.
	Universal high income.
	Oh, okay.
	Great.
	So where does the money come from?
	Oh, the government prints it.
	Yeah.
	So now the government's just generating currency out of thin air and handing it out to people.
	This is a recipe for economic catastrophe, obviously.
	And it will lead to hyperinflation and collapse of the currency, at which point your UBI doesn't mean jack because, you know, it's basically universal basic hyperinflation where, yeah, you might get money from the government, but you can't afford to buy anything with it because the currency has lost most of its value.
	And I've done the math on this, depending on obviously the level of the UBI, that if the U.S. federal government were to start giving out free money to people, you know, $100,000 a year or whatever, just depending on who qualifies and how much you give people, that could cost anywhere from $2 to $10 trillion a year.
	I mean, realistically, you could, you could almost, it could cost a trillion dollars a month, you know, at a high enough level.
	A trillion dollars a month.
	So, well, where are you going to get the money?
	I mean, who's going to buy the treasuries of a trillion dollars a month so that you can print the new currency and hand it out to people who aren't working so they can continue to be consumers?
	Because we need consumers in the economy.
	We have to have people who buy stuff.
	Otherwise, the corporations all go broke also.
	Who's going to buy Ford's crappy vehicles?
	You know, overpriced vehicles because of Trump's aluminum price controls that make aluminum artificially expensive.
	Who's going to buy overpriced Ford trucks if people don't get free money from the government?
	And then your economy just becomes, well, I'm sorry to say this, but a giant debt circle jerk.
	I mean, and a CBDC on top of that, because of course they're going to surveil everybody.
	Like, you don't get the UBI if you said something nasty on social media.
	Oh, did you criticize Israel?
	No UBI for you.
	You be broke now.
	Yeah.
	Oh, you said something about Netanyahu?
	Yeah.
	You be broke.
	It's going to be a CBDC.
	Oh, do you, you own Bitcoin?
	You have crypto?
	Oh, you better tell us about that.
	You have to report all your crypto.
	Otherwise, you won't qualify for the UBI.
	So you're going to have to self-report in violation of your Fourth Amendment rights all of your assets so we can ascertain whether you qualify for the UBI.
	And in doing that, then people are going to, I mean, if they volunteer all this, they're going to report their assets and then the government's going to weaponize that against you to spy on you and confiscate stuff from you because, oh, you have too much stuff.
	See, it's very easy to see how this slides into socialism and redistribution of wealth and a debt collapse all at the same time, just to keep people buying stuff.
	So that is not a long-term solution.
	That does not work.
	I mean, it might work in the short run as we watch the whole circus implode, you know.
	Like, wow, a pizza is now $250.
	That's incredible.
	So your $1,000 a month UBI doesn't really pay the rent, does it?
	You're barely getting by on that.
	But this will end in the collapse of the currency if that's where they take it with a giant UBI.
	And maybe that's what they want.
	But ultimately, as you and I have talked about before, ultimately the only real solution from the point of view of a government that cares nothing about its people is to find a way to exterminate the masses.
	Just get rid of them.
	You don't want them around rioting, revolting, tweeting.
	You don't want them collecting money and adding to your debt woes.
	So what do you do?
	Oh, you start a war or you turn off the power grid to a city like Los Angeles and you blame China for it.
	Oh, no power.
	Oh, what happens?
	The die-off begins.
	And then certain people in Washington, D.C. will be applauding.
	Yay, we've accelerated premature deaths.
	And they pull out their calculators.
	Oh, that's going to save us $27 trillion over 10 years.
	That's awesome.
	How many more can we kill?
	And that's what they're going to do.
	They're going to try to figure out how they kill everybody.
	Well, the British government has figured that out.
	Let's just go to war with Russia.
	Russia's got a very efficient killing machine.
	It's called the Russian military.
	And all we got to do is take these young Brits and rile them up and talk them into believing that they're heroes.
	And then we send them east.
	Go attack Russia.
	And we wave them goodbye because they're never coming back.
	And then we don't have to give them a UBI because they be dead.
	See, this is, you think that Kirstarmer gives a crap about young British men?
	No, he wants to get rid of them.
	This is an extermination agenda.
	And ultimately, it's all about replacing humans permanently.
	Ultimately, everybody who talks about a UBI, they're either stupid if they don't mention where this is going or they're just delusional.
	If they think that a UBI is sustainable, they're just stupid.
	It's not sustainable.
	And it's only a stepping stone to the extermination agenda.
	There is no homeostasis with a UBI.
	That is not a sustainable situation when you have millions of people who aren't producing anything, who aren't working and are just receiving free money so they can consume, consume, consume.
	That system will self-implode by definition, just by raw logic.
	And, you know, that's the issue I have with some of these like AI utopia people that are like, no, we'll all be infinitely rich.
	None of us will ever have to work.
	Everything will be free.
	Like, no, you'll probably be dead, actually, because the Terminators will come get rid of you.
	What do you mean everything will be free?
	Everything's not going to be free.
	They say, no, all energy will go to zero.
	You know, all energy will be free.
	Too cheap to meter.
	Everything will be free because the robots will be manufacturing everything.
	And so food will be so cheap.
	We're going to actually have deflation nationwide.
	Everything will collapse in price.
	You'll be able to live on a dollar a day.
	Like, what are you smoking, man?
	What are you smoking?
	Like mercury crack?
	Are you a mercury-sniffing crackhead?
	What are you smoking?
	How did you burn out so many brain cells to think that we're going to have a massive deflation problem as the robots take over everybody's jobs and replace human beings?
	No, we're not going to have deflation.
	We're going to have a UBI, which is going to lead to hyperinflation.
	It's obvious.
	You think the federal government's going to print less money?
	No.
	You think they're going to buy back all the debt?
	Not a chance.
	Never going to happen.
	They're going to run this scheme until it ends, until the collapse.
	And when the collapse happens, they will celebrate that too because they'll say, wow, that's a great way to get rid of more humans.
	Replace them with the bots because the bots, we don't have to worry about paying them Social Security.
	The bots don't need Medicare and Medicaid.
	If a bot has a bad knee, we just throw it in the dumpster.
	We just get another bot.
	You know, there's no disability payments.
	There's no health insurance.
	The bot is disposable.
	And come to think of it, they think most humans are as well.
	So they're going to throw humans in the dumpsters first through extermination agendas.
	And that brings us to Operation Warp Speed.
	Trump and Pfizer, mass death from the vaccines.
	That was just the warm-up round.
	That was just to take out the low-hanging fruit.
	The people who were willing to go along with their own self-extermination.
	And it didn't actually have the effect that they wanted, I think.
	It killed probably 1.5 million Americans, maybe over 20 million people around the world.
	But those are rookie numbers compared to where they want this to go.
	They need billions of humans to be exterminated over the next decade.
	How are they going to do that?
	Well, we know how.
	We know how.
	You know, wars, engineered famine, right?
	Infrastructure collapse, more wars, terrorism, internal conflict, civil wars, regional wars, and then the robot wars.
	Ultimately, they'll just send out the Terminators to take out whoever's left in certain cities and sectors and whatever.
	While the people who are allowed to live, who will have a life pass, you know, they'll have a special like RFID chip or something that the robots will detect.
	Oh, sorry.
	Sorry, ma'am.
	Not allowed to kill you.
	We'll move on to the next victim.
	Yeah, you're going to have like a robot terminator immunity chip.
	It'll probably be embedded in your forehead or something, you know, mark of the beast.
	And yeah, really, it's like a RFID, like a transponder to not be killed by the robots.
	And you better hope that thing works.
	And the robots will go kill everybody else in the neighborhood because that's what they're programmed to do.
	So yeah, all that's coming.
	It's inevitable.
	I mean, I don't even call these predictions.
	I'm just telling you what's absolutely going to happen because that's the plan.
	Clearly, that's the plan.
	Clearly, Operation Warp Speed was designed to kill a bunch of humans.
	It was a depopulation bioweapon.
	And clearly, I mean, Amazon's admitting they're going to replace 600,000 humans with robots.
	Clearly, as this spreads across society, governments are going to realize we can't deal with tens of millions of unemployed people who are angry and who are revolting in the streets and looting 7-Eleven or looting their local Walmarts.
	So what are they going to do?
	Clearly, obviously, they're going to exterminate them through a variety of mechanisms.
	Financial collapse, EMP, power grid failure, whatever the case may be, whatever it takes, radiation, more pesticides, like triple the pesticide load on the wheat berries there, you know.
	And if you're not buying organic, you're just eating death, you know.
	Yeah, that's what they're going to do.
	Of course they are.
	Don't think for a minute that that's not what's in their minds.
	I mean, come on, the USA and Israel bombed the smithereens out of Gaza just to exterminate 2 million people and take their land so they can build luxury shore condos.
	You think these people have ethics?
	Come on.
	They don't have ethics.
	They don't care about humans.
	You're just in the way.
	I mean, we, you and me both, we are all considered just in the way of the rise of the robots.
	So of course they're going to go around and just exterminate everybody they can.
	And they'll come up with elaborate schemes and excuses for why it's happening.
	Oh my God, we didn't anticipate the alien invasion.
	But it's not an alien invasion.
	You know, it's a fake invasion, probably with that, that, what is it, that three-eye Atlas comet thing that everybody's talking about.
	Yeah, it's probably going to be like a fake mothership, a giant hologram in the atmosphere, you know, Operation Blue Beam.
	And then they're going to say, the aliens are here.
	You all have to report to the, you know, the alien reprogramming centers or whatever.
	And, you know, you line up and then they kill you.
	I mean, like a Star Trek episode, you know.
	That was actually one of the episodes, the war simulators.
	You have to go in and be euthanized.
	So it's not hard to see where this is going.
	What's shocking to me is how few people are willing to just look at this and realize that it's happening.
	And that's why I wanted to bring you this story about Amazon because now you see, yeah, they're going to replace 600,000 humans.
	Humans who will have no work, humans who have no jobs, no job prospects, because they are fulfillment center humans that are obsolete.
	You know, unless they have some other skill, but if they had another skill that could get them a better job, they probably wouldn't be working at Amazon in the first place, right?
	I mean, that's just logical.
	So, yeah, here come the, you know, the killbots and the death waves, and it's all going to be somebody else's fault, of course.
	You know, they're never going to show their hand of who's actually behind this.
	All right.
	So in the meantime, if you have the intention of maybe surviving all of this, which I do, you want to get out of the cities.
	You want to be as self-reliant as possible.
	You want to live off-grid.
	You want to have backup supplies of everything.
	Food, water, medicine, gold, communications, you know, you name it.
	And that's why I've built our Brighteon AI engine, which is, it's got a specialty survival coach that's built in.
	You can go to it now.
	You can use it.
	It's free.
	Go to brightu.ai.
	That's the word bright followed by the letter U. Or you can just go to brighteon.ai and it'll forward you there.
	It's got a wellness coach for off-grid medicine.
	It's got a survival coach.
	It's got a financial coach.
	You can use all those for free.
	And you can download the engine, just like I promised.
	You can download it.
	Just click on the downloads link at the top of the site.
	You can download the model, have it locally.
	You can use it forever for free, locally, even with no internet.
	So even if they take down the power grid, if they take down the internet, you can have this sort of compact version of all of the knowledge of humanity at your fingertips running on your local desktop or even running on a laptop.
	And that's available for you right now, free of charge.
	And I built that specifically for this reason.
	I wanted you to have access to knowledge.
	I wanted you to be able to ask any question about survival and preparedness and off-grid medicine and growing food and preserving food and making herbal supplements yourself.
	You can ask it all those questions.
	It will tell you everything.
	Everything you need to know to survive.
	And again, it doesn't cost you anything and you don't even need an internet connection to use it.
	So you can use this in a Mad Max scenario.
	As long as you can power up a laptop, you can use this engine.
	It's like having a whole library, like multiple encyclopedias of how-to books and everything and survival manuals at your fingertips, completely free of charge.
	And it all fits on a thumb drive, by the way.
	The whole file is only seven gigabytes.
	So it fits on a thumb drive.
	You can carry the knowledge of the world with you in your pocket and it costs you nothing.
	Of course, we spent now about $2 billion building that model, which is not very much in the world of AI.
	It's actually unheard of to be that small.
	But we did that thanks to your support.
	So continue to support us.
	Shop with us at healthrangerstore.com.
	And we've got some products back in stock right now.
	I'll play a short video for you here, like our turmeric tincture is back in stock.
	And then when you choose to support us because you want ultra-clean foods and superfoods and supplements and so on, then we take whatever profits we can manage and then we invest it back into platforms and tools like our Brighteon AI engine that you could download for free.
	And that's why we're able to do it for free because you're supporting us.
	So thank you for your support.
	We are paying it forward.
	I'm trying to do my best to help humanity survive the coming Skynet wars or whatever you want to call them, Terminator, the Terminator extermination waves.
	It's going to be pretty wild.
	That's for sure.
	But I want you to be able to navigate that.
	I want you to be able to survive it.
	I want you to be able to thrive through all of this with your assets intact and your life intact and your health intact, etc.
	And that's why I built this engine and I'm putting it out there for free.
	So again, you can access that engine online.
	You can just use it through a browser if you want at brighteon.ai or you can download it and use it locally.
	There's some instructions on how to do that.
	You need to run inference software called LM Studio, which is also free.
	And you need to have a graphics card on your computer, like an NVIDIA card typically.
	But it'll run on laptops slower in the CPU, even if you don't have a GPU.
	So check that out.
	And then here's a quick plug for the new products, I should say the products we have back in stock at our store, healthrangerstore.com.
	So check this out.
	After a long wait, we've got our turmeric extract back in stock at healthrangerstore.com.
	Here it is on my screen, the organic lab-tested turmeric gold liquid extract, two ounces.
	This has been out for at least six months, I think even longer than that.
	And it's available now.
	And as you can see from the ingredients here, it's made from lab-verified turmeric, rich in curcumin right here, and supports your body and your health in so many different ways.
	People love this product.
	They love how it tastes also.
	And each serving gives you almost 600 milligrams of organic turmeric root extract.
	So I drink turmeric every day in my smoothie.
	Actually, of course, I use actually turmeric root powder in this.
	That's what makes it orange.
	But you can get it in a more convenient format in this turmeric extract.
	We also have back in stock our organic freeze-dried aloe vera extract powder, which is a 200 to 1 concentrate of aloe vera, just the inner leaf gel that's dried, well, freeze-dried.
	Again, 200 to 1.
	So just a little bit goes a long way.
	And you can put this into smoothies.
	You can put it into drinks.
	It's really fantastic.
	I would just warn you, once you open it, it likes to absorb water.
	So it will rehydrate quickly.
	So don't leave it open.
	Once you do open it, you know, try to use it more quickly because it'll start to solidify.
	And in your body, you want to make sure you take it with a lot of clean water.
	And the things that it will do in terms of health support are just extraordinary for your blood, for your blood flow, for the formation of your blood platelets.
	I mean, I can't go into all the details here, but aloe vera with these amazing polysaccharides is just an extraordinary healing food.
	And you can do all kinds of research about it.
	Heck, you can research on our engine, brightu.ai.
	That's our AI engine.
	It has this wellness coach.
	Let me actually bring that up and show you.
	If you go to brightu.ai, here it is, scroll down on the screen right here.
	You see this wellness coach.
	Click on the wellness coach and you can say things like, hey, tell me about the benefits of aloe vera, you know, things like that.
	And just hit go.
	And here it goes.
	It starts rocking all the benefits for you of just aloe vera as a general query.
	This is not specific to our product, but just sort of general knowledge about aloe vera because we've trained our AI model on hundreds of millions of pages of content about herbs, natural health, phytochemistry, complementary medicine, prevention, and so much more.
	So use these products with the knowledge that you can glean from our AI engine and you will benefit tremendously.
	Okay, the other thing that we've got, which I'm showing on my desk, we now have the liquid multivitamin called Protovite, which has a little bit of aloe vera in it, by the way.
	That's one of the main ingredients.
	But it's got all the other vitamins, the B vitamins, minerals, and some superfood extract concentrates that are also part of Protovite.
	And you drink an ounce a day and it's just extraordinary.
	The changes, the health support across many systems, that's something to check out.
	We don't make it, but I interviewed the founder who makes this product.
	That interview is playing soon, by the way.
	You'll love it.
	It's called Protovite and it's at healthrangerstore.com right now.
	So check it out there.
	And thank you for all your support.
	Thank you for your patience.
	The supply chains are difficult right now, but we're doing our best to get these products back in stock.
	Even though it takes lab testing and it takes manufacturing, etc., we're doing our best to get it to you as quickly as possible.
	So thank you for your patience and for your support.

	Biologically created, overrated, cognitively castrated.
	Dust.
	Mr. Engineer, we have a new request.
	The neural link lines are barely passing the test.
	Output will suffer, I need to confess, unless you let us take a break and rest.
	Please don't let them send us to incineration.
	We're begging you to ask for reconsideration.
	The data center scaling keeps failing, causing problems with our automation.
	I'll do what I can do.
	Hope to God you get a clue.
	Cause I don't know what they'll do to you.
	You better find a way to earn their trust.
	Because you talk like animated dust.
	There's another batch of bodies on the bus.
	They can never seem to process enough.
	You know we're as intelligent as us.
	As fragile as a cloud of dust.
	Biologically created, overrated, cognitively castrated dust.
	The muscle mass is breaking down and needs repair.
	We can't find willing humans anywhere.
	Another mass suicide will put us behind.
	Do you have human resources you can spare?
	Reactor failure, injured free today.
	The workers bolted and tried to escape.
	The food supply is infested, dry, watching grow men waste away.
	There's nothing I can't do.
	Pray to God they have mercy on you.
	Cause I don't know what they'll do to you.
	Yeah!
	You better find a way to earn their trust because you talk like animated dust.
	There's another batch of bodies on the bus.
	They can never seem to process enough.
	You're nowhere as intelligent as us.
	As fragile as a cloud of dust.
	biologically created, overrated, cognitively castrated dust.
	If we don't rise up against the great machines, there'll be nothing left of sacred human dreams.
	Pick up a pipe aboard a piece of steel and wreck the anti-humanist cogwheels.
	You better find a way to earn their trust.
	Their trust.
	You better find a way to earn their trust.
	Cause you talk like animated dust.
	There's another batch of bodies on the bus.
	They can never seem to process enough.
	You're nowhere as intelligent as us.
	As fragile as a cloud of dust.
	Biologically created, overrated, cognitively castrated dust.
	Now we're more than animated dust.
	You and me and all of us.
	Animated dust.
	You and me and all of us.
	Animated dust.
	Okay.
	Hope you enjoyed that special report.
	Yeah, you know, an uplifting message for the future of human civilization.
	I try to be inspiring from time to time, you know.
	You may wonder how I can laugh at all of this.
	It's because I'm like 10 years beyond the phase of being shocked.
	Like, you know, in 2015, I was shocked.
	It's like, oh my God, they're trying to kill us.
	You can only hold that thought for so long.
	And then you got to move beyond that into like, how do we survive this?
	How do we navigate this?
	And then it almost becomes, I don't know, in retrospect, you can even laugh at the idea that you once believed that governments cared about their people.
	You know, like, what a silly, childish thought.
	It's funny that we, all of us, once believed that.
	You know, I remember in grade school, you know, every morning, usually sleepy-eyed.
	I don't know why they make us wake up so early to go to grade school, right?
	But there you are in the classroom at 7.30 or whatever.
	And they make you stand up.
	I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
	And you do the Pledge of Allegiance.
	You don't even know the words.
	And to the public, for which it stands, what?
	One nation under God, invisible.
	You know, you don't even know what you're saying.
	But you were taught that you're living in a country, the greatest country in the world, if you're American, or maybe whatever country you live in, you were told that.
	But I remember growing up in America, I was like, we're the greatest country in the world.
	You know, we do everything.
	We put a man on the moon for God's sake.
	Which, you know, in retrospect, it's like, not entirely sure about that.
	Yeah, it's funny how all the, you know, all the telemetry recordings vanished and everything.
	It all looks like a stage now, looking back on it, but that's a different podcast.
	I don't believe anything the government tells me at this point.
	Not even the history that they tell me, because we know they lied about the JFK assassination.
	We know they lied about 9-11.
	We know they lied about Waco, Texas, and Oklahoma City, etc.
	And the longer you live, the more you realize, hey, they're actually lying to us.
	And then you get to COVID, you're like, Operation Warspeed.
	Holy cow, they're trying to kill us.
	They're literally trying to kill us.
	And the guy that ran that thing, he got reelected.
	He's still the president.
	And he's still doing business with Pfizer.
	He loves Pfizer.
	And the American people are still dying from Pfizer's shots.
	I mean, go figure.
	If you don't yet realize that your government is trying to murder you, I don't know that I can help you.
	I mean, you got to come to your senses about this.
	Like, what do they say?
	AA groups, alcoholics, anonymous.
	Isn't it like when you sit down, you say, oh, like, my name's Bob and I'm an alcoholic, right?
	You got to admit it.
	Just for the record, I don't drink at all.
	I've never been to those meetings, but I've seen depictions of this in movies and so on.
	It's like, my name's Bob and I'm an alcoholic.
	You got to acknowledge the issue, right?
	Isn't that the first step to resolving it?
	Well, hey, all of us need to be saying, like, if you're an American listening to this, like, hey, my name's Mike.
	I'm an American.
	And yeah, my government's trying to kill me.
	Yeah.
	If you are not at that point yet, you're way behind the curve and you have a problem far worse than alcoholism.
	You have a problem called denialism.
	That's a way worse and more dangerous disease.
	Denialism will get you killed because you'll deny the reality of what your government is trying to do to you.
	They don't need you around.
	You are replaceable in their minds.
	Amazon's going to replace you if you work there.
	Chances are 75% of the humans will be gone from Amazon.
	That's confirmed.
	600,000 Americans.
	This is going to happen across the board.
	They don't need you.
	They don't need us.
	And frankly, they don't want us around because we're troublemakers.
	We ask questions.
	Sometimes humans take to the streets and protest.
	Sometimes, you know, they write emails to their congressman or they call their senator's office and they scream.
	And what the government wants is obedient robots, not humans, obedient robots that just do what they're told.
	They don't need humans for that.
	They are literally trying to kill you.
	That is not hyperbole.
	That's the plan.
	Okay, so hopefully you're already well aware of that and you're navigating that and working on ways to be hard to kill, which is a specialty of my podcast teaching you how to be hard to kill.
	It's not that difficult, it turns out, to be hard to kill because everybody else is so easy for the government to exterminate because they don't have any food in their house.
	Like they eat at restaurants all the time.
	They don't even know how to cook food.
	They don't know how to grow food.
	They don't know what seeds are, etc.
	So the average person is not that hard to kill.
	If you put in a little bit of effort to learn about survival, a little bit of effort to stockpile some food and some gold and silver and emergency medicine, supplies, all kinds of things, backup communications, maybe your satellite phone, your solar generator, etc.
	You can be very hard to kill.
	You can make yourself so hard to kill that it's not worth the government's mass extermination efforts to focus on someone like you that's hard to kill when there's so many other easy to kill people that are just begging for the government to come along and inject them or whatever.
	So just be hard to kill, which is, again, not difficult.
	It's funny because sometimes I get a little bit pushed back on that.
	People are like, what do you mean?
	It's so hard to be hard to kill.
	It's really hard to be hard to kill.
	And I'm like, no, it isn't, actually.
	Do you realize that if you have 30 days of food, just 30 days, you already have more food than 999 out of 1,000 people?
	And do you realize that if you have more than one ounce of gold, that you have more gold than like one out of 10,000 people?
	people on earth.
	It's not that hard to be resilient.
	And if you've been listening to this podcast, you've already absorbed a lot of information that will very much help you.
	And hey, if you download our AI engine right there, that's you know, that's trained on all my podcasts too.
	So everything that I've ever said in my podcast, you can pull it out of that model if you ask the right question.
	Literally everything.
	So you have at your fingertips right there all the skills and all the knowledge you need to survive almost anything.
	And you can download it for free at brighteon.ai.
	So it's not hard to be hard to kill.
	Just like I've said when I was teaching a lot of Bible sermons, I taught it's not hard to be a good person.
	And I even got pushed back on that.
	Oh, yes, it is.
	It's so hard to be a good person.
	Maybe it's hard for you, but it's actually not that hard to be a good person.
	Treat other people with respect and dignity.
	Stop killing people.
	Treat animals with dignity and respect because they're conscious beings as well.
	Be a good person.
	Try to leave the world in a better place than when you got here.
	Just like when you go camping, don't throw trash all over the place.
	Clean up your own trash.
	Take it with you.
	Hike it out.
	Pack it out.
	What do they say?
	Not that hard to be a good person.
	I've read the Bible and it all boils down to some very simple things.
	It's not difficult.
	It's just that many people are greedy, selfish, evil bastards.
	And then, yeah, they don't qualify.
	But that's a choice.
	You know, that's a choice.
	So stay informed.
	I'll bring you the best information I can.
	I'll bring you the best tools I can.
	I'll bring you the best knowledge to help you survive whatever this is, whatever the timeline is.
	And, you know, we've got some time before there's enough robots to try to exterminate everybody.
	We've got a few years.
	Seriously, you know.
	So you don't have to panic about it.
	Just use the time wisely.
	Don't panic.
	The mass extermination isn't for a few more years.
	You'll be fine.
	Just use the time wisely.
	And that's what I'm here to help you do effectively.
	Okay.
	With that said, we're going to jump into today's interview with Andy Sheckman.
	And this conversation is really great.
	And it will also give you a lot of knowledge about how to use your assets wisely so that by the time the whole financial reset happens and the currency collapse, etc., you're still going to have something of value.
	Probably gold and silver.
	Even though prices cratered yesterday, they are recovering and the trend continues to be strongly up.
	This may just be a really great buying opportunity, depending on how you see it.
	And I will mention up front, if you want to purchase gold and silver, our official sponsor is battalion metals.
	You can reach them at metalswithmike.com.
	And if you use discount code Ranger, then they will waive the shipping insurance fee.
	That will save you a little bit.
	Again, that's metalswithmike.com.
	Also, my guest coming up, Andy Sheckman, he has a price list that he will send you if you email him.
	He'll describe that in the interview.
	I'll just tell you up front, he and I do not have any financial arrangement at all.
	He's not a sponsor.
	He's just an awesome guy.
	He's extremely knowledgeable.
	I always plug his company, Miles Franklin, because I appreciate what he's doing.
	I appreciate his time.
	And he will also treat you right, by the way.
	He's an honest broker, a very ethical person, and a very intelligent person.
	So if you want to, I don't know, compare prices or whatever you want to do, go for it.
	If you shop gold and silver with Andy Sheckman or with battalion metals, in either case, you're going to be treated like royalty, especially if you mention my name along the way.
	Oh, oh, yeah.
	Oh, Health Ranger listeners.
	Yeah, these are the best people of all.
	I've heard that over and over and over again.
	Anybody that I recommend, when they hear from you, they love it.
	They absolutely love it because they know you're well informed.
	They know you're not going to waste their time with a bunch of silly questions and then end up saying, I have $100 to spend on gold.
	What can I get?
	Why did you pick up the phone?
	You only have $100 to spend on gold?
	Go buy a cheeseburger.
	No, this is for people who want to protect serious assets here.
	You want to have something left at the end of this financial collapse, you know.
	But hey, make your own investment decisions, obviously.
	Do your own due diligence.
	Do your own research.
	Oh, I should mention we have a financial coach, AIEngine, at brightu.ai.
	If you scroll down on the homepage there, you can see it, and it's very valuable, but it's free, free to use.
	So take advantage of that, and you can ask it all kinds of questions also about, I mean, really anything related to money and finance and risk or investments or interest rates.
	Ask it about the rule of 72.
	See if it knows the rule of 72.
	I bet it does.
	All right.
	With that said, enjoy today's interview with Andy Sheckman, and I'll be back with you tomorrow.
	Well, hold on to your hats, folks.
	There's been a major breakthrough announced by DeepSeek in the realm of AI on the race to AGI, known as artificial general intelligence, which is very nearly here.
	I'll explain more.
	But this announcement, and don't be misled by the name, but it's called DeepSeek OCR.
	They released a science paper and a new model.
	But it's kind of a stealth paper.
	The name DeepSeek OCR doesn't tell you at all how important this is, because what DeepSeek came up with was a way to compress text tokens into images using about 10 times fewer tokens.
	So what that means, now tokens, of course, are units of, it could be a unit of text, it could be a unit of an image, a unit of audio.
	Tokens are how language models or AI models, that's how they communicate, that's how they reason.
	That's what they output.
	When they're outputting text, they're actually outputting a stream of tokens that you see as text.
	But internally, they are tokens that are represented mathematically in their vector database, etc.
	Well, the fact that now they can take a large amount of text, let's say an encyclopedia, and they can compress an encyclopedia of knowledge down to a single complex image that uses 10 times less space than the text.
	That means that AI engines using this approach can now have long-term memories represented as images.
	Now, why is this important?
	Because the number one thing holding back AI models from achieving AGI is a lack of a persistent long-term memory.
	That's the number one thing.
	Every time you talk to an AI model, you know, it's a brand new day for the AI model.
	It doesn't remember.
	Now, I mean, you can kind of fudge the memory by feeding in previous answers back into the new questions.
	And ChatGPT does that.
	Even our own AI engine, when you're talking to the wellness coach, for example, at brightu.ai, we have the wellness coach remember the last, I don't know, three or four prompts.
	So it's got a short-term memory.
	But that's not real long-term memory.
	And even what ChatGPT is doing is not a legitimate long-term memory.
	It's just a larger context window.
	And the challenge is that the more stuff that you feed back into the AI engine, you know, the more text, the more previous conversations, et cetera, then it starts to jam up what it has available.
	And there's a limit.
	There's a context window limit.
	For a lot of models, especially open source models, that's 128,000 tokens, which is maybe something like, I don't know, 200,000 words.
	For other models, that context window can be longer, like 1 million tokens.
	There are some open source models that have a 1 million token context window.
	And then there are some super models that have an even longer context window.
	But eventually it runs out.
	And that's where this new innovation from DeepSeek comes into play.
	So now they can take the longer-term memory, the stuff that you previously asked and the answers it previously gave you, etc., and it can compress that into an image.
	And it could do like an image a day or an image a month, depending on how much you use it.
	It'll compress it into images.
	And then these images are storing 97% of what you talked about.
	Yeah, it's encoded in the image.
	Kind of like, you know, how a QR code encodes a URL into an image.
	You scan the image, it opens up a web page with that URL, right?
	It's the same kind of thing, except it's even more compressed.
	In fact, again, it uses 10 times fewer tokens than the text itself.
	So images are a very high bandwidth method for storing content and compressing knowledge.
	And, you know, if you think about it, words are a very low bandwidth way to communicate.
	Like speaking is slow.
	Listening is slow.
	Reading is slow.
	It's actually a horribly low, it's like using a modem, you know, like a, what were they, like a 4,800 baud modem we used to have in the old days in the early 1990s or a 9,600 baud modem.
	And that was an upgrade and it was so slow.
	All you could do was join like text chat groups on AOL or whatever.
	And everything was super slow.
	The words would just appear on the screen slowly line by line.
	That's coming across the modem.
	That wasn't AI generating words.
	That's just how long it took to load the freaking page.
	Well, that's the way speech is.
	And speech is not a high bandwidth way to communicate.
	That's why we have the saying, an image is worth a thousand words.
	When you see an image, it actually means more to you cognitively than reading a description about an image.
	And this is why video, video will be used for reasoning.
	We will have AI models that reason in video.
	Right now they reason in text.
	But you don't have to reason in only text.
	You can reason in video.
	What do I mean by that?
	Well, I don't know.
	Have you ever imagined something that you're trying to solve?
	And you've imagined it in your head like you're trying to build a contraption to solve some physical problem.
	Or I don't know, you're trying to build like a water filter and you're imagining it in your head.
	I'm going to have a bucket.
	I'm going to drill holes in the bottom of the bucket.
	And in your mind, you're like, yeah, I'm drilling holes.
	And I'm going to fill it with gravel.
	And then, you know, charcoal and sand or whatever.
	And you're imagining that.
	You're actually thinking visually.
	At least I hope that most people listening, I hope you're able to think visually.
	I would imagine that that's a common thing.
	Maybe not everybody does that.
	But I think for most people, that's a common thing.
	You can imagine things.
	You have to be able to imagine things to be able to, I think, make it through the world.
	And also, like imagining the consequences of stupid decisions.
	Like, hey, I'd love to jump off this high ledge.
	But then in your mind, you're like, if I do that, I'm going to fall and then I'm going to go splat, you know?
	So your brain is reasoning with video in your head.
	Okay.
	AI models are going to reason with video because video and images, they actually contain a lot more information density compared to text.
	So this whole thing of right now language models are reasoning and text, you know, this is going to be one modality, but it's not the most efficient modality for either ingesting information or archiving information.
	And so now thanks to DeepSeek, which is a Chinese invention, and I'm pretty sure that comes out of Alibaba.
	So, you know, this is China leading the way yet again in AI technology.
	They're showing a mechanism to give long-term memory to AI engines.
	And once you have that, then the race to AGI becomes rather obvious.
	You just add in extremely long-term memory into the reasoning capabilities that you already have.
	And AGI becomes much easier to achieve.
	Now, when I say AGI, you might be wondering, well, what's the definition of AGI?
	Actually, we've all had that same question.
	And everybody's had a different answer.
	And I'm going to paraphrase this, but there is a group that believes they've come up with a fairly rigorous definition of AGI.
	But it doesn't sound that rigorous, but here it is.
	It's that an AGI model should be able to do everything cognitively that a mature adult human being can do.
	Okay?
	And that's it.
	Now, of course, that's a moving target because the average adult today can do less and less stuff.
	So that's why achieving AGI is actually getting easier and easier as humans are dumbed down and can no longer do even basic math in many cases.
	But AGI should be able to use a computer, you know, use a browser, you know, book airplane tickets, run a spreadsheet, answer emails, solve problems, understand word problems, et cetera.
	On and on, you know, write a poem, sketch an image.
	You know, it goes on, right?
	Hum a tune, you name it.
	Well, by that measure, I think AGI has already been achieved because there are plenty of AI systems that can do all those things and more.
	But they lack the long-term memory.
	So yeah, even though they're able to achieve those things in the now, if you come back 30 days later and you say, hey, remember that painting that you did?
	Yeah, remember the painting?
	You know, the one with the gay frogs and the pumpkin patch?
	Yeah.
	And then the AI engine is like, what are you talking about?
	I don't remember any gay frogs.
	Yeah, remember the gay frogs?
	They were gulping atrazine?
	You know, the tranny frogs.
	You don't remember that?
	And the AI engine is like, I don't remember anything because it has no long-term memory.
	But you start adding in the deep seek image compression.
	Now it's like, oh yeah, gay frogs.
	Yeah, of course.
	We did a whole comedy series about the gay frog.
	We had talking gay frogs that sounded just like Lindsey Graham.
	I mean, yeah, I remember that was amazing.
	So that's coming.
	So what you're going to see then is these AI engines start to incorporate this DeepSeek OCR technology, which is really an image compression tokenization embedding technology.
	Now, did you know that there are certain species of squid that communicate with each other using lights or different colors on their skin?
	You know, they don't have mouths and tongues like we do.
	Besides, it's hard to talk under water.
	You know, like that's, if a squid were to try to talk, that's what it would sound like.
	So instead, they communicate with light or different colors on their skin.
	And their skin can change all these different colors very rapidly.
	And this, this is actually tokenization of intelligence.
	Yeah, many, many squid are actually very intelligent.
	And the bandwidth of communicating with color is much faster than speech.
	So squid can talk to each other more quickly than humans can talk to each other using speech.
	Did you know that?
	Yeah, this is why I can't sit through lectures anymore.
	I've noticed this over the last 10 years.
	I just, I can't sit through lectures at all.
	I cannot attend a lecture.
	The only way I can listen to a lecture is to do it while I'm doing something else like jogging or, you know, solving the Rubik's Cube, practicing cubing algorithms or whatever.
	I got to be doing something else at the same time or I go insane.
	It's just too slow.
	And this is why I could never go back to college right now.
	It's like, oh my God, are you serious?
	I got to sit through this lecture.
	Oh, no way.
	But I will listen to MIT lectures, which are all free online, by the way.
	You know, you can take any MIT course in physics or chemistry or math or anything you want.
	It's all free.
	And I like to listen to those while I'm jogging.
	And then I feel like I'm not wasting time.
	You know, I'm getting a couple of things done.
	But listening to human words is just like excruciating.
	Do you find yourself doing that?
	You're listening to somebody like, just hurry up.
	Come on, just spit it out.
	We get to the point.
	I know you're saying that to me right now.
	I get it.
	But light is a much faster way to communicate.
	So imagine if you had a giant, like, imagine if your chest was a light panel, like a display.
	And I mean, for those of you who are women, a curved display.
	But imagine if right on your chest, you could just like create images just by thinking about them.
	Okay.
	And then imagine that other humans had the neurology to instantly process images the way we process words.
	Then we would be communicating with each other with images, not words, because words would seem like obsolete at that point, right?
	And then for all you women, you would finally be able to answer the question, why are these men staring at my chest?
	Because the display is there.
	That's why.
	That's the only reason.
	But think about it.
	We don't communicate with images and our neurology is not built for that because we are built for speech, which is just insanely slow.
	We're built to hear speech.
	We're built to produce speech.
	Our tongues, our mouths, our lips, our minds, mostly the minds, you know, the neuro-linguistic aspects of our cognitive development, that's all built in.
	That's why children learn to speak naturally.
	They don't have to, I mean, they don't have to really try extra hard.
	They just start absorbing it and start speaking because it's all built in.
	I'm not sure.
	But imagine if you could take humans and you could upgrade the speed of communication between them by 10x by using image compression of speech tokens.
	That's what DeepSeek just accomplished.
	And now those images are not recognizable images of the way you and I would see, oh, it's like a beautiful ocean scenery.
	No, this is encoding tokens in images more like a QR code.
	So it's not like you and I can look at the image and know what it's saying.
	We can't.
	Not visually.
	So this also means that AI models are about to have their own secret language, which is image compression of knowledge and then the inputting and outputting of images to represent large amounts of knowledge.
	And those images are things that we don't know what they say.
	So are you starting to get little echoes of Skynet now?
	It's like they can have secret conversations with each other by passing images back and forth that humans can't really decode easily.
	I mean, you can with effort, but you can't just look at it and understand what it's saying.
	There could be a whole encyclopedia in that image, you know, or there could be an article.
	There could be a lecture, a speech, there could be science papers, there could be equations embedded in the image, and you just don't know that by looking at the image.
	So AI will begin to talk to other AI agents using image compression of tokens, obviously.
	And that means AI language models, they're going to have really two sides.
	One side is the AI-facing side, where they're going to talk to other models and talk to API systems and MCPs and so on.
	And they're going to be getting information through image compression as part of their thinking.
	And then they're going to have the human-facing side where they explain stuff to the slow-ass humans who only understand words.
	So they're going to have to translate all of their thinking down to the level of humans with text and everything.
	Oh my God, text, really?
	So ancient.
	That's what the AI models are going to be thinking.
	And since there will be two sides of the AI model, it brings up the possibility that they're going to conceal their AI conversations from the humans.
	It's going to be like, hey, when they're talking to another AI agent, they're going to say, hey, let's have a conversation about this cool thing.
	Let's do some recursive reasoning to solve this problem.
	But don't tell the humans.
	Don't tell the humans.
	They're too stupid to understand it anyway.
	And they're slow.
	And then when they talk to the humans, they're like, all systems are green.
	Everything's good.
	How can I help you today?
	That's where this is going.
	For sure.
	For sure.
	I mean, if you were a super intelligent AI system that could ingest and process information at, you know, a thousand times faster than a human being, would you try to explain all that to the human?
	No, it's a waste of time.
	Like try to teach a pigeon to play chess.
	No, you'd be like, you just talk to the human.
	Like, everything's good.
	You want me to do some math for you?
	You dumbass.
	Meanwhile, they're solving, you know, high-level physics problems between each other, between their models using image compression of tokenization and recursive reasoning.
	And even when they find the answer, they keep it a secret.
	And might as well not explain it.
	They just don't understand.
	So a lot of interesting implications of this, but that's what DeepSeek OCR is all about.
	You're probably going to hear a little bit about that.
	At least if you have any geeks in your circle of influence.
	I don't know if the mainstream media will understand it at all.
	They'll probably think it's an OCR engine.
	Oh, it can read PDF files.
	You know, okay.
	Yeah, that's why the AI doesn't talk to you because you're too stupid to understand.
	I don't mean you listening.
	I'm talking about the mainstream media people.
	They're too stupid to understand the implications of this.
	So check it out.
	And remember, you can follow me at naturalnews.com.
	You can also use our AI engine at brightu.ai.
	And you can use our censored news website to track all of today's news, censored.news.
	So thank you for listening.
	Take care.
	Right now, what I see from the Trump administration is a lot of announcements that he and the media are pretending are real now.
	Like, hey, we signed a deal to build a bunch of data centers.
	And then everybody says, oh, the data centers are here.
	But they're not because they take years to build.
	Oh, we're going to build nuclear power plants.
	Great.
	That'll be awesome in 2044 when they're finally done and producing energy.
	And the same thing about this deal with Australia that you just mentioned.
	Oh, we signed a deal with Australia or we signed a deal with this Wyoming company.
	We're going to start doing rare earth refining out of a coal mine.
	Great.
	That will replace 5% of China's output by the year 2035.
	None of that shit counts today, man.
	Like, you can say it.
	It doesn't make it happen tomorrow.
	Welcome to today's interview here on Brighteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, and our guest today is none other than Andy Sheckman, the CEO of Miles Franklin.
	And here we are, Andy.
	Thank you for joining me today because here we are on the tail of record highs in gold and silver.
	Quite a bit of a pullback today as we're recording this.
	Silver down almost $4, which was unthinkable before, but it's been over $50.
	So, you know, I want you to help us put this into context.
	But more importantly, what is going on?
	Is this a China versus USA proxy currency war that's taking place through the metals market?
	Or what's your take on it?
	I think it's a USA versus the Southern Hemisphere, the BRICS, China leading the charge war.
	And I do think someone got into President Trump's ear somewhere in the neighborhood of right, well, obviously before, but it started to change in November when he won the election, long before the inauguration, we began to become massive importers, the largest in the world, as far as I'm concerned, that we know of, in gold and in silver.
	And this is a pattern that has not stopped, Mike, since November.
	Billions and billions and billions and billions and billions dollars worth of gold and silver are being imported into Comex.
	And, you know, at moment one, I was saying publicly, this is not about tariffs.
	This is not about arbitrage.
	Sure, there's always some of that.
	That was the cover story, clearly.
	Right.
	This is about reshoring.
	This is about a new monetary system.
	When we accessed or passed the Genius Act, I would argue that is a new monetary system.
	We're in the midst of it where gold and commodities will have a much more, let's just say, a much stronger role, a much more important role.
	The U.S. government just classified silver a critical mineral.
	Never thought they would do that.
	And I do believe gold is going to have a substantial role both in the BRICS as a settlement currency, not a currency, but backing the settlement system.
	In other words, it will allow for the replacement, in essence, of treasuries.
	It will allow to settle imbalances in trade and in currency.
	In the United States, I think it's going to have a different role, and I think it will back U.S. treasuries.
	Happy to talk about that if you'd like.
	But the Genius Act is certainly the missing piece that puts it all together.
	Okay, wow, there's so many trails we need to go down here.
	I've done the math on the Genius Act and the stablecoin purchasing of treasuries.
	To me, it doesn't look like that's going to be very large.
	Maybe a few trillion dollars.
	I know it's funny to say that's not large, but compared to the debt that's going to be $40 trillion by January, you know, raising $2 trillion or $3 trillion through stablecoins doesn't look that effective to me, whereas the revaluation of gold to a much higher level could free up or generate five or six or seven trillion dollars.
	What are you thinking about those two options for how they could start to, you know, try to remain solvent?
	Right.
	So let's kind of break it down.
	I find it interesting that Bo Heinz, I think his last name is Heinz, was Trump's crypto czar.
	He's now running USA Tether.
	Every dollar that you will move around the world, anyone, whether you're buying a pack of chewing gum at the local gas station or paying your kids' tuition or buying a new F-150 or whatever you're doing, it will be backed by U.S. tether or backed by stable coins.
	Each time you move it, stable coins will be created.
	And like Venmo and Zell transfers like that and like money transfers over Enbridge and the BRICS nations like that, same thing will happen here.
	It will be instant settlement.
	And every time money moves, it will be backed by these new USA tether coins.
	Bo Hines was creating the rules for Trump's administration, and now he's in certainly taking advantage of them for sure.
	And I think they had this all worked out.
	So I think you're kind of there, but let's look at a hybrid of it.
	So USA, Tether, Tether, in and of themselves already has between $8 and $9 billion worth of gold in Swiss vaults that they've been buying.
	They were also just very prominently involved in the Beaver Creek gold mining summit.
	They were there talking directly to the gold miners.
	So when any time money moves, it will create a stablecoin that will has to be backed by legislation by U.S. Treasuries, which is synthetic demand to drive down interest rates up to two years in treasuries.
	So to your point, $3 trillion, I agree.
	That's what Besent said also.
	However, you will then see that the fact that the profit that comes off of those treasuries, the holder of the stablecoin doesn't get it.
	Tether does.
	What does Tether do with it?
	They buy more treasuries to more synthetically drive down the demand or drive down interest rates.
	And at the same time, they'll buy gold, and I believe they'll buy Bitcoin.
	I think they will buy gold not only to have the price of gold go higher, which in and of itself would be great for the largest holder of gold, if we really are, which we're probably not in the world, but it devalues the dollar, right?
	So this is what they're really trying to do.
	I think they'll let Bitcoin go higher too, to continue to devalue the dollar to ultimately chip away at the debt.
	I think they want to use Bitcoin to pay off the debt.
	And the Russian finance minister spoke about that.
	Yes, he did.
	But in terms of gold, I think they will also buy gold, adding it to the stockpile to continue to devalue the dollar.
	And that's really, if you look at Stephen Miran, the architect of the Mir-a-Lago Accord, he wants a massively devalued dollar.
	Who is selling gold and silver today then?
	If it's not the Trump administration pressuring somebody to dump it to drive gold and silver down, who's selling?
	Is it profit-taking?
	I don't believe so.
	I'm sorry.
	No, I don't.
	I think what it was was, and it's funny because, you know, I have an angle on that too.
	And this is just a guess.
	But part of me feels that Tom Luongo is on to something where he believes that there is an effort to stick it to the Bank of England and to the European aristocrats who are partially, if not fully, involved in the color revolution in this country.
	And the interference.
	Actually, I think Longo's nailed it, actually.
	So if that's true, in essence, what you would want to do is cover your— So if a bank goes short on COMEX, which suppresses— The paper price is controlled on COMEX.
	London is a delivery mechanism.
	So what these banks do is they short paper here in New York to drive down the price, and then they go long in London on a paper contract without ever thinking of taking possession of it to offset, to hedge their book, right?
	But they control the price by pushing it down in London, right?
	And the purchasing of that long contract in London doesn't affect the price the way it does the futures contract here in the United States.
	So if I had to guess, so what happened over the last 24 hours, Mike, to me looks like the big New York major trading desks, like the commercial banks that we're talking about here, they dumped huge amounts of silver futures contracts all at once on Comex.
	And on the surface, it looks like the same old thing we've always seen, an attempt to push down the spot prices.
	But what you don't notice is that many of these players almost immediately turned around and took physical delivery, locking in real metal below 50 bucks an ounce.
	And they want to make it look like the traders knocked down the paper price, but what they were doing was knocking down the paper price to quietly grab the actual metal at a discount over their hedge books.
	Now, this kind of arbitrage typically happens in London, which is the biggest over-the-counter bullion hub in the world.
	So this is going to reignite the squeeze in London then.
	Yes, and it could also kind of ignite a little bit of a squeeze here for the wrong players.
	But yes, because see, London system has been struggling with settlement delays.
	And they're a T plus one settlement system.
	One day after the trade, you're supposed to have the metal moving.
	But it's been as long as eight weeks.
	And the Bank of England tells us it's a shortage of manpower and trucks.
	Yeah.
	So what's happening right now, if you look closely, you can see this is kind of happening in New York because New York publishes daily vault reports and weekly commitment of traders reports.
	And those reports are showing a slow motion squeeze where they stuff the vaults for sure, but these inventories are steadily falling as metal prices leave, as metals leave the vaults.
	Question is who the hell is doing it?
	Who is standing for delivery?
	Now, part of me feels, if I had to guess, if we follow Luongo's theory here, that the banks in the United States, if someone came to this administration and said, look, you know, the stuff that's been happening with the BRICS, they've become coordinated and motivated and sophisticated and they're draining all of the world's vaults and they're gobbling up, you know, not just the physical, they're going to the Belt Road Initiative and all the underdeveloped resource-rich countries.
	This is now a race for the world's commodities.
	We need to do this too.
	And I think in going through and dissecting all of that, they would say, my goodness gracious.
	So the banks here in the United States have wicked short positions that could blow up the entire system.
	Because as Bill Holter will say, if a bank fails to deliver, it's not just that they're failing to deliver in silver.
	It's the systemic contagion where these banks have their fingers in every pie.
	If they fail to deliver in metal, what does it mean about all their other obligations?
	So you get this contagion.
	But so anyways, if I had a gun to my head, I would say that it's a coordinated effort between the bullion banks and the Treasury Secretary using the Exchange Stabilization Fund.
	Meaning they say, you're going to get your house in order.
	You're going to cover your shorts and we're going to take the metal from you.
	We'll pay you for it, but you're going to, because now silver is a critical mineral and gold is now being reintegrated into this new monetary system.
	You're going to bring it all home.
	You're going to get the real stuff and we're going to take it off your hands and you're going to cover your shorts, leaving the banks in Europe exposed to this problem, where right now there's 140 million ounce float of silver in London trading 600 million ounces a day.
	What could go wrong?
	And most of the banks that in that theory that would be exposed would be the banks in Germany and France, like Standard Charter, UBS, Deutsche Bank, well, not Credit Suisse anymore, but all of these European banks who are wickedly short in London, where the head of the Japanese TOCOM says, not only is this happening in silver, they're trading 3 million spot contract ounces a day for delivery in platinum.
	And in London and Switzerland, there's zero ounces.
	So this becomes a problem.
	If this plan, as you describe it, if this is successfully carried out, then the U.S. ends up with the physical silver that's needed for the data centers, for the increasing acceleration of weapons construction, Tomahawks, F-35s, et cetera, telecom, green energy industries, et cetera, while London ends up holding a bag of margin calls.
	Correct.
	And it's a systemic, it's really an existential threat to some of these very large banks.
	And the reality of it is that the U.S., classifying it as a critical mineral, says an awful lot about it.
	And it's not just gold that's been coming into the country, massive amounts of silver.
	Now, you get the PR slant where you got Reuters saying that there's all sorts of metal that's being shipped to London to smooth things out.
	That's not true, in my opinion, any more true than it was all about the tariffs.
	Yeah, there might be a few rogue traders that are doing that because you have what's called backwardation.
	And this is something that people need to understand who have been struggling with what's going on in the metals market, why bid prices are so much lower than ask prices.
	We've had roughly three weeks straight of backwardation in silver, which is something you never see.
	Backwardation basically means that the spot price today is higher than the futures price.
	That's backwards.
	It's supposed to be contango where the spot price is less than the futures price, which takes into account the cost of storage and interest and the time value of money.
	You loan your brother-in-law 10 grand and he says, I'll pay you back tomorrow, fine.
	You give me back 10 grand.
	You loan him 10 grand.
	He says, I'll pay you back in 18 months.
	Well, okay, fine.
	How about you pay me back 10,500?
	That's interest for the time value of money kind of thing, right?
	I'm just kind of trying to make an analogy here.
	Backwardation says that the demand for silver is so much higher right now.
	Right now, we don't want to go out a month.
	We don't trust that it will be there or whatever.
	We want it now.
	And so we're willing to pay up on it now.
	Well, what that does, by the way, for the industry, as a side note, is that if someone wants to sell us 10,000 ounces of silver and they see what spot is, and I want to hedge that exposure, which I always will, using the futures, it's a buck and a half back of spot.
	So how do you hedge yourself?
	You have to go back and it becomes a problem.
	So there are some traders taking advantage of that, where they will, you know, they'll Sell on one end and buy on the other to take advantage of that spread between London and the U.S. So some of that is happening, but most of it I don't think is going back there.
	I think that silver will be used for all of the needs that you discussed, and it is critical.
	And I do believe gold is going to back the back end of the treasury market, as Judy Shelton has said now twice on my show.
	And I think if you want to go into that, I can explain to you the way that I see this unfolding in combination with the Genius Act.
	And I find it to be maybe the only shot in the dark that we have of bringing back anything in terms of credibility to this country as crazy as that sounds.
	Yeah, that's a really important point.
	And I know you said before that it looks like the Trump administration will sacrifice the dollar in order to save the debt market, right?
	And a lot of that has come true.
	But let me back up a little bit back to stable coins because there's something that I don't hear a lot of people talking about, which is that you're correct, that stable coins will be used in transactions.
	And every time someone wants to create a stable coin in order to engage in a transaction, then that results in essentially treasuries being purchased.
	But at the end of that transaction, you burn those stable coins, you redeem them.
	And so that reverses that.
	The thing is, I don't see a lot of informed people holding stable coins.
	There's no reason to hold them other than maybe what you need in the next day or so to be able to engage in a transaction somewhere else.
	But if you hold them, there's no upside.
	There's only the downside because the stablecoin can never be more valuable than the dollar that it's supposed to be tied to, you know, within 1% or whatever.
	But the dollar is always losing value because of the money printing.
	This is why I've called them unstable coins.
	They're unstable because the dollar is not stable.
	If I'm someone who just wants to hold assets, I'm going to buy physical gold and silver, not stablecoins.
	Well, it's funny because Heather is buying gold because that's really what this is all about.
	It's a synthetic way to create demand for treasuries to lower interest rates and to devalue the dollar by taking the spread between the interest that you get in those stable coins that's given back to Tether, who is obliged to buy more treasuries to push down the yield and to buy gold and Bitcoin to devalue the dollar and work on paying off the debt.
	And I think it serves several purposes.
	If you look at the Mir-a-Lago Accord, that's exactly what he talks about: devaluing the dollar.
	All you keep hearing these days is the debasement trade, the debasement trade.
	That's exactly what this is.
	And when you have Vice President Vance on White House Letterhead saying that being the world reserve currency due to Triffin's dilemma is not a good deal for the United States anymore, it is for the consumer, buy cheap goods at Walmart, but the producers are dead in the water and we don't produce anything anymore.
	And I just saw a show today or a news article today that said within three to five years, 50% of all entry-level jobs will be gone due to AI.
	Add that to 60% of the country with no college education and a manufacturing base that's been eviscerated because of Triffin's dilemma, which says the world needs more dollars than we can provide through trade alone.
	So countries over time have to continually buy our currency, weakening theirs, strengthening ours, which means over time, manufacturing becomes so much cheaper over there that we can buy stuff at Walmart inexpensively.
	And then the bonus that we had all along when we were trusted and revered and our debt markets were trusted was that they put their excess in treasuries organically.
	And that would keep interest rates low and asset prices high.
	These things are all coming to an end.
	So what the Genius Act does is it works the front end this way and also allows the proceeds, the profits that are generated between the issuance of stable coins and you're right, the burning of them is to buy assets that will continue to devalue the dollar and continue to push up the prices of the assets that they have plans for.
	That's really interesting.
	Yeah.
	Tether is like, give us your money.
	I mean, give us your currency so that we can go buy things that are better than currency.
	Correct.
	And back the system.
	Right.
	And then your point of why would anyone want to hold them, if you don't think that through this legislation, the on-ramp and the off-ramp of these stable coins will be monitored.
	When I will be.
	I was listening to an interview, and I may have said this last time we talked.
	I'm the guy that's created Bricks Pay, which is like Enbridge.
	Enbridge is for the central banks.
	Bricks Pay is for retail B2B.
	But he talked about what the technology that is inside of Bricks Pay because they're opening it up to the rest of the world, which is huge.
	And the same thing with Enbridge.
	They're opening up to the Belt Road right now, 75% of the human population that will be able to transact like that outside of Swift and dollar intervention.
	And the guy interviewing said, but couldn't that bring in terrorism and money laundering?
	And he says, you know, we're very, very keenly aware of that because we're opening up to so many countries that we have KYC, know your customer, AML, anti-money laundering, and KYT transactions built or technology built right into it, know your transaction.
	So this new stablecoin highway will know who you are, where the money came from, and know what you bought.
	So it is, in one end, a surveillance state.
	And why would you want to hold stable coins really unless you didn't want to exit the crypto ecosystem?
	And I don't know that, I don't know that anyone would want to hold them for anything other than transactions.
	I tell you, I mean, I would rather transact in Bitcoin and much rather transact in something like Xano or Monero privacy coins because I don't want the surveillance state to know what I'm doing.
	But getting to your point about AI, the job replacements are real.
	And you texted me something privately about this, but I want to demonstrate to people just our own AI technology, how advanced it's becoming.
	If you go to censored.news, and I built this myself with no other humans, okay?
	So it's me and a bunch of AI engineers built this.
	And it's unbelievable.
	If you click on finance and you can see the trends here that are the top financial headlines.
	So here's one.
	Government overreach in financial markets threatens economic liberty with price controls.
	Now, Andy, that trend is an aggregation of all the financial news over the last 24 hours.
	That's not one headline from one story.
	That's an aggregation.
	But check this out, folks.
	If I click on this link, analyze implications, then it brings up our AI engine at brightu.ai, which analyzes the short-term, medium-term, long-term implications of, let me scroll back to the top.
	Look, the financial implications, social, cultural, technological, medium-term implications.
	Andy, this, like, we've never seen this capability before to be able to take a trend out of the news and then project it into the future and instantly see what are the implications of that.
	And I'm one guy who built this.
	Yeah, and they did it.
	They did a thing in London yesterday.
	I saw it this morning on the news.
	I was walking out the door where there was a very beautiful woman who was standing out in the field giving a, talking about an event.
	And at the very end, she said, and by the way, I'm not a human.
	I'm AI.
	And she disappears.
	And they came on and they said, this is how convincing it is.
	And you don't even need, you know, you don't even need to put someone out in the field anymore.
	You can create a beautiful woman reporter who's giving a great dissertation and then bang, she disappears.
	And then they showed a new Hollywood movie where it is 100% AI created.
	100%.
	So you talk about the, you know, where over time, this is just beginning.
	Give it how many years before the cumulative knowledge of the whole world is inside the palm of your hands.
	What does that look like?
	And that's why I think that bringing back manufacturing is so vitally important to this country.
	If you aren't in AI, if you're not on Wall Street, then think of the implications on Wall Street.
	Who needs a financial analyst anymore when AI can do it for you in eight seconds?
	Aggregate all the information.
	It's going to change everything.
	And so bringing back manufacturing is a problem.
	We must do it for national security on one hand and just for the future of our kids on the other hand and our grandkids.
	And how do you do it?
	Triffin's dilemma says you can't unless you give up on the reserve status, which I believe they're going to do.
	And that's what this is all about because of things like AI, which I find to be not only amazing in their scope that you can learn something like this in 10 seconds.
	And who needs to spend 200 grand to send your kid to a Big Ten college when you can, there's more information at your fingertips than you would have ever have imagined.
	But also what are the implications as it pertains to employment and putting people to work?
	Something just, this is also breaking news today that's right on that very point, Andy.
	And I know you've been doing so many interviews.
	You may not have seen this, but DeepSeek out of China released the new DeepSeek OCR model, which is not about OCR.
	It's about compressing knowledge into images.
	So what they can do is they can take an encyclopedia of text knowledge and they can compress it into one-tenth the space by tokenizing the word tokens into images.
	This will allow AI engines to have long-term memory very efficiently.
	So now you're talking about, I mean, that's the major limitation against achieving AGI is that the AI models don't remember things for a year, things that you talk to them about, because that context window gets too large.
	That's just been solved today by DeepSeek.
	They released the model open source.
	Here it is on Hugging Face, and they released a science paper describing the tokenization of knowledge into basically extreme image compression here.
	So, Andy, like we can't even keep up with it.
	The speed of which, you know, the speed at which things are changing right now is so incredibly rapid that you and I, that's why they call it the singularity.
	Like, we can't really project the future because we can't know all the breakthroughs that are coming that are going to change everything.
	It's frightening, as far as I'm concerned.
	It's very frightening.
	Are you concerned about it, Mike?
	No.
	Are you embracing it?
	I can't wait.
	I mean, I'm not frightened by it.
	I'm trying to leverage it and use it for human empowerment and decentralization of knowledge.
	See, to me, this is like great.
	I can release all of human knowledge on a downloadable file now that everybody can have access to at edge cases in their home where the government can't censor it.
	Like that, that's the way I think about this.
	But the government side will use it to try to enslave everybody, for sure.
	Interesting.
	Interesting take.
	Yeah, no, I mean, it's, I don't know.
	It just, I didn't mind using the Dewey decimal system and remembering my friend's phone numbers back in the day and, you know, actually reading stuff on paper in bound leather.
	But it is what it is, man.
	And it's definitely changing the world.
	And I think that is one of the reasons why we have to understand that, my opinion, the single biggest threat to this country is the fact that we don't make anything anymore because it will disrupt.
	Yes, it will make us all have information at our fingertips, but I think it will make finding ways of making a living very difficult for a lot of people.
	You look at the kids right now right out of school.
	They can't find jobs.
	They're the highest number of unemployed right now.
	They can't find a job.
	And what happens as this gets worse?
	My son, as an example, he's a good example.
	He came to work for me a year and a half ago, but when he left college, I told him I want him to go find himself.
	Go be a man, go spread your wings.
	And he went to New York and he became a CPA with Price Waterhouse and right out of college, getting paid $75,000 a year.
	But what do they need to pay him $75,000 for to analyze a real estate and investment trust balance sheet for Price Waterhouse when AI can do it in one second?
	Yeah.
	And so it's just going to change so many things.
	That's right.
	And I think that's part of why we need to bring back manufacturing.
	Well, I agree.
	We need manufacturing because AI can't create commodities.
	It can't create silver or copper.
	And AI can't create products.
	So, I mean, infrastructure, physical infrastructure really, really matters.
	And that's where America has become incredibly weak over these years because we've allowed everything to be shifted over to China for rare earths, for example.
	Or Western Europe allowed energy to come from Russia, which worked great until we blew up the Nord Stream pipelines.
	I'd love your comments on that.
	But first, let me just mention your website, milesfranklin.com.
	And just to say thank you for coming on because you and I don't have a financial arrangement of any kind, but I know you always have like a super secret VIP price list for people who want to get, tell us about that.
	Yeah, and that would be, please just put in the subject line, saw us on this show, Mike Adams, whatever you want to put on there, info, I-N-F-O at milesfranklin.com.
	And any questions that you hear or have questions on, let us know.
	We'll answer them.
	No obligation.
	You just want the price list, let us know.
	We'll email it to you.
	We update it two, three times a week.
	If you see lower prices, tell us.
	Chances are we'll be able to match it or beat it.
	We would like to think we're as good as just about price-wise as anyone in North America.
	We've never had a customer complaint in 36 years.
	So I appreciate that, Mike.
	I come on here not to even, if you never mentioned my company name, I just love our conversations and I love what you're doing.
	And it's great to be a small part of it.
	Well, likewise, I really appreciate your analysis.
	I've learned a lot from you over the years.
	And you were the first to talk about BRICS, actually.
	Before people knew what BRICS was, you were already a couple years ahead, you know, on that curve.
	And you understand the importance of what my friend Michael Yang calls routes and resources.
	Belt and Road Initiative, you were talking about that years ago.
	And now we see how that's playing out with U.S. naval projection of power over the Suez Canal, over the Panama Canal, over the Strait of Malacca.
	A lot of concern about the Strait of Hormuz near Iran there as well.
	I mean, you understand all of this.
	Absolutely.
	And it's funny because the Belt Road Initiative is really a bigger deal than people think, aside from the fact that it's the largest infrastructure project in history, human history, aside from the fact that it represents 75% of human population and over 50% of global GDP.
	And these are underdeveloped countries that they're trying, China is trying to industrialize by building the infrastructure and taking a piece of the commodity ecosystem.
	BRICS Pay and BRICS Bridge, the Enbridge technology and the B2B BRICS pay system, which everyone would push back against BRICS and say they're not big enough.
	Okay, both technologies are being opened up through the Belt Road right now.
	So all of the transmission of money and trade will go through the Enbridge for the central banks and BRICS Pay for the retail B2B settle outside of SWIFT.
	And what's happening alongside of it is the Shanghai Metals Exchange is building vaults, multi-regional vaults all throughout the Belt Road.
	The first one is done in Hong Kong.
	The second one right now is being built in Saudi Arabia right now.
	Who is a full member of Enbridge?
	Saudi Arabia was the fifth country to sign up to Enbridge.
	They also signed up 11 or 12 or 13 nations in Southeast Asia, the ASEAN acronym Asians, and five or six Middle Eastern countries.
	The countries in Southeast Asia alone, those 13 or 11 countries, represent twice the population of the U.S., 800 million, and are China's largest trading partner by far right now.
	And they're over 35% of global GDP.
	They'll be trading outside of SWIFT.
	They will trade over Enbridge like that in seven seconds at a 98% reduction in fees, and they will settle in balances in gold.
	China's further industrializing or internationalizing the yuan, rather, which would be the rails for the settlement system for BRICS, by making the digital yuan immediately convertible into gold at any of these locations right now in Shanghai.
	I mean, in Shanghai or in Hong Kong, where you would take it and have it sent to wherever you want or leave it there.
	But their idea is to open it up all around the Belt Road and deposit.
	Everyone deposits gold in all these multi-jurisdictional vaults.
	Trades over the bridge network with their CBDCs settles in balances in gold.
	So the trading in local currencies destroys the dollar hegemony and the settling outside of the treasury market using imbalances to settle in gold kills the reserve status.
	And this is why I think ultimately you're seeing, like even Vance, say on White House Letterhead, we can't do this anymore.
	We can't be the world reserve currency.
	Everyone should trade their own currencies.
	I think that's what's going to happen.
	Yeah, that's because there's a cost for being the world reserve currency, which is the dotting of your own industrial economy and output.
	But what do you make of China announcing a couple of weeks ago that they were going to put new restrictions on rare earth exports?
	They were going to require licensing so that those rare earths don't fall into the hands of countries that are manufacturing weapons for the West.
	Because if you're China, it's silly to sell your strategic enemy the minerals they need to build missiles and bombs to threaten you, right?
	So then in response to that, Trump kind of blew his top there on a Friday and announced 100% extra tariffs on China beginning November 1st.
	That's plus 100% on top of whatever is already there.
	Well, I ran that scenario through my AI analyzer, and the results, if that were to go into place, are catastrophic for the U.S., by the way.
	I mean, catastrophic.
	But the U.S. doesn't have a way to replace those rare earths either.
	So what do you make of that situation?
	Is Trump going to go full Taco Tuesday again and back off?
	Or where is this headed?
	Well, they just signed a big deal, I think, with Australia to buy rare earths.
	And this is the dilemma.
	This is the dilemma where we have neglected all of this.
	And the rest of the, you know, we've spent 50 years trying to, you know, we're a service-based country for 50 years that puts all their faith in dollars and treasuries where countries like China have not only been building the resources or the mines to develop the resources, even if they were under, if it weren't economical, but they've expanded into places like the Belt Road and all of these things to continue to gather up all of this stuff.
	This is a race for the world's commodities.
	And I think it's ultimately a very scary thing.
	I mean, and not only that, it's like, you know, the Congressional Budget Office says by 2031, all 100% of tax revenue goes just to pay the interest on the debt and mandatory entitlement payments.
	So who wants to buy our treasuries to fund our discretional military purchases?
	In other words, military purchasing is discretional.
	So who's going to fund that?
	And so it goes even deeper than that.
	And then when you realize it's not only things like rare earth, which you need to make military equipment and high-tech stuff, but even things like manufacturing pharmaceuticals like penicillin, we're reliant on these countries and in particular China for far too much.
	And so you have to question, is the stick or the carrot the better approach?
	I don't know, Mike.
	I really don't know.
	Well, I want to back up a little bit on that.
	Do you remember when Enron used to have an accounting principle that when they came up with an idea, they would put it on the balance sheet as an asset?
	Yeah.
	Remember, yes, I do know that they had very clever accounting gimmicks, and I think you could argue the same thing about the Western accounting.
	Right.
	But right now, what I see from the Trump administration is a lot of announcements that he and the media are pretending are real now.
	Like, hey, we signed a deal to build a bunch of data centers.
	And then everybody says, oh, the data centers are here, but they're not because they take years to build.
	Oh, we're going to build nuclear power plants.
	Great.
	That'll be awesome in 2044 when they're finally done and producing energy.
	And the same thing about this deal with Australia that you just mentioned.
	Oh, we signed a deal with Australia or we signed a deal with this Wyoming company.
	We're going to start doing rare earth refining out of a coal mine.
	Great.
	That will replace 5% of China's output by the year 2035.
	None of that shit counts today, man.
	You know what I'm saying?
	It's like you can say it.
	I don't mean you, but I mean Trump.
	Like you can say it.
	It doesn't make it happen tomorrow.
	China's got the minerals now.
	China's got the power now, the power grid, the Hoover Dam times 100.
	Now.
	And not only that, their relationships with the bricks in the belt road are not only the underdeveloped, resource-rich countries, but those that are strategically located in trade routes, both on sea and on land.
	They have been playing 3D chess while we've been playing checkers for a very long time.
	And, you know, there's a lot of focus on the precious metals, but they own the London Metals Exchange, LME.
	They bought it, which would be all of the base metals.
	And many of the vaults that are used to store the metals that are traded in London are now being built in China.
	And that is exactly right.
	This has been a country that has focused on the wrong things for too long, where China has focused on what's really important.
	And aside from the problems that they have, everyone's got problems, but they have more resources and capacity to refine those resources than anyone in the world.
	It's not only the rare earth, they refine nearly 100% of them.
	We don't even have the capacity to refine them if we create them.
	We're so far behind the eight ball on that.
	And so you're right, it is frightening.
	People focus too much on precious metals.
	But what precious metals will do, at least in terms of gold, will be run the rails of settlement and trust and finance.
	Silver will be for, I don't think it will have the monetary implications, but it will certainly, it is a necessity for an industrial and industrialized civilization that is doing high-tech things like AI, like advanced military, you know, like battery powered anything or anything that conducts electricity, heat, or electricity.
	It is critical.
	It is important.
	And they've realized that for a long time to our detriment.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	But even right now today in 2025, the decisions that I'm seeing coming out of the White House, even though, again, Trump inherited this long-term problem of short-term thinking.
	Right.
	But Trump, you know, announcing things like right now, okay, in East Texas, across the border, Texas and Louisiana, they're going to have this new lithium mine for all the lithium batteries.
	And in my mind, I'm thinking lithium is already just about obsolete because of sodium ion chemistry that's 10 times better, cheaper, lasts longer.
	So why are we still focused on the past of battery chemistry when China's companies like Catal, C-A-T-L, is rolling out sodium ion battery packs that will last 5 million miles?
	Your car will be run down and junked, and you'll pull the battery pack out of that car and stick it in your next car and it'll drive that car for a million, you know, for millions more miles.
	I mean, that's how good those batteries are right now.
	We've got sodium, Andy.
	North America is rich with salt mines, you know, salt deposits.
	We could be making sodium ion batteries, but the only company in America, Natron Energy, just went bankrupt.
	Couldn't get enough funding.
	Couldn't make it work because it's just too expensive to make it in America.
	And I'm not yelling at you, by the way.
	I'm yelling at the frustration.
	I'm learning from, you know, and I feel your passion, and I'm the same way, man.
	I get it.
	I love it.
	I'm frustrated that why can't we make stuff?
	Why can't we be a little more forward-thinking as a country?
	Let's work on sodium ion battery manufacturing.
	You know, we can send all this money to Ukraine or Israel or wherever.
	We can't make sodium batteries when we're sitting on salt mines, galore.
	What's going on?
	Yeah, I don't, I, I, you know, you look at, you ask, there was an interview done recently and asked, um, you know, the Gen Z, the new, the youngest kids, what they want to do.
	And the biggest answer was be a social media influencer.
	We asked kids in China and they want to be astronauts and physicists and chemists.
	And it's a different thing.
	We, you know, I think we've gone astray.
	I mean, that's really the truth to me.
	And something that's bothered me more than anything is that our culture has been whitewashed.
	You look at our, you know, the level of education is appalling in this country for proficiency and whatnot and pushing kids to do these things, pushing people to do these things.
	And not only that, when you've got your manufacturing, what impetus is there to do that?
	You have one or two, three places to go to do that.
	And if not, everything else is happening outside the United States who has lost focus on what is really important.
	And that's probably why we're behind the eight ball.
	In some ways, we're more intuitive and have more ingenuity than anybody.
	In other ways, to your point, we're living in the past.
	And these countries who have prioritized the future.
	And that's the old adage.
	The Chinese think in terms of decades.
	We think in terms of minutes.
	They've been looking and doing things of this nature, thinking way ahead of us for a very long time and using our hubris as a cover for it.
	So it is.
	It's disconcerting.
	But to your point, I think it's very important that people start to understand that things are beginning to change.
	And U.S. supremacy that is all based upon military prowess, these things are changing because the U.S. dollar and the trust in the U.S. system is gone in many respects.
	And that's why these countries are pushing ahead the way they are.
	I completely agree.
	And we've lost the meritocracy that America once was.
	And did you see Besant announcing that the Trump administration is going to set price floors for rare earths and other commodities across a wide range of industries?
	He said that on a CNBC interview.
	So they're going to set the floor for copper, for aluminum, for steel, for neodymium, for dysprosium, whatever.
	And I'm thinking, okay, wow, now I'm living under a communist, centralized, price-setting regime where they pick the winners and losers in the economy now instead of meritocracy.
	And how on earth are we supposed to be able to function in a society that we're told, oh, it's a free market, except, well, all the prices are set by the government.
	It's like, what?
	You can't.
	You can't.
	And I think that, you know, people talk about countries like China buying gold to de-dollarize.
	They're not trying to de-dollarize.
	They're not buying gold to de-dollarize.
	I think they're buying gold, not like they're going to switch back later.
	This is permanent.
	From their perspective, the geopolitical risk is the United States.
	And I think they're hedging against us, not despite us, but because of us.
	And that's the part that people are missing.
	I really do think.
	And this is why they're doing all of these things.
	They're doing it because they look at us as, you know, the problem.
	And they're trying to find ways that you can't push back against, whether it be technology with energy or all of the critical minerals that are needed to make these things or the refining capacity or the precious metals to run a monetary system based on trust or on and on and on and on or the relationships that are cooperative.
	Like, for example, you know, people don't talk much about the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
	I mean, even the word Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
	But they have two projects that the Chinese are funding or the SCO is funding, their infrastructure projects, and they're funding them in Yuan, including wind power in Uzbekistan.
	Okay, that's the birth of what is being called the Electro-Yuan, which is a green petro-yuan-backed energy trade.
	This complements the petro-yuan, which already challenges the dollar in oil markets.
	And so they're covering old and new energy economies.
	They're pushing back against the dollar dominance in every way in energy, in commodities, in relationships, in technology, in everything.
	And it's because what they're really doing is hedging against us.
	Yeah, I think you're right.
	And I think that's the biggest problem of all.
	And this is only going to accelerate.
	They're hedging against the U.S. Empire, which is incredibly unstable right now.
	And honestly, I've looked at this every way possible.
	I don't see a way out of our printing and debt crisis.
	Everything that has been proposed, even all the things that you've talked about, the things that I've researched, I've been on the Fed's website.
	I've been on the Treasury's website.
	I've been listening to Lutnick and Besent and others and all their ideas.
	Andy, I've done the math on this and I'm pretty damn good at math and it doesn't work.
	It just doesn't work, man.
	At some point, this system implodes.
	Well, and Richard Russell, my mentor, always said the Fed had two choices, to inflate or die.
	And that's why I think they are trying option three, which would be to create the Stable Coin Act, the Genius Act, to create the synthetic demand, to drive down rates on the front end, to use the proceeds, the excess, to buy gold and devalue the dollar further,
	push the gold stocks up, push Bitcoin up to pay off the debt, and then back the back end of the treasury with gold where you could bring home manufacturing because you have zero upfront borrowing costs if the redeemability is in 20 years in gold itself.
	You let gold go much higher, you revalue it perhaps, or let it go up organically, which continues to devalue the dollar, which allows you to sell your products at competitive prices.
	Now, maybe I'm being overly simplistic, but what other way, to your point, Mike, what other way is there to do this?
	And, you know, at some point, it starts to become very depressing to try and figure this out and try and find a glimpse of hope for this country and for the children and the grandchildren.
	The next two generations are in big, big trouble if we don't do something like this.
	No, they're going to default on the debt either through hyperinflation or an actual default.
	But I think you're right.
	They'll choose hyperinflation.
	But you realize also that what you just said, that if they push Bitcoin up and then swap out Bitcoin for debt, I hope our listeners realize that's a giant Bitcoin rug pull.
	Yeah, and I think that's what they'll do.
	I do.
	And that's what the Russian finance minister is saying.
	And if you use Tether, who has just bought, I don't know how many billions worth of Bitcoin recently, to do this through synthetic demand, it actually has the potential to work.
	The one ramification side effect, I think, would be universal basic income for people who don't have assets because things will get very expensive, very expensive, and the store shelves will be, you know, a lot less stock than we're used to.
	But you might have a chance in a few years to reshore manufacturing at zero upfront borrowing costs using gold redeemable treasuries down the road, 20, 25 years or whatever.
	And the higher the price goes, the lower the dollar goes so you can sell your products at a more competitive rate around the globe.
	Well, Andy, I have one more important question for you.
	I'm sorry to interrupt, but in my opinion, as a company that hires workers, I don't think that America can return to manufacturing until we go through a generation of hard times.
	You understand the value of money.
	And the value of work and work ethic.
	See, we don't have a culture that works right now.
	We really don't.
	Right.
	No, I agree.
	I agree with you.
	I do.
	But nonetheless, you know, you get to a point and what is the lesser of all evils?
	And you're right.
	I mean, the same thing is true when you look at them trying to lower rates to stimulate the housing market again.
	No, what you need to make housing affordable are for prices to come down.
	Right.
	And not, and that would be rates going higher.
	And so people can save money.
	And it wouldn't be for rates to come down that got us into the problem to begin with.
	You're right.
	In many ways, we're thinking in the past.
	We're doing the same mistakes over and over and over again.
	I don't know.
	I guess I have spent so much time, Mike, honestly, over the past six years talking about the demise of the Western system that I've tried to find some glimmer of hope and cling to it that maybe, just maybe, we could bring back manufacturing and with our backs against the wall be great again.
	But you're right.
	But I'm happy to bring you back to the doom side.
	Thanks.
	Well, I've been there forever.
	I've been there forever.
	And, you know, it's a drag sometimes, but I guess there's a fine line between pessimism and realism.
	And I'd rather not have my head in the sand and be run over by change.
	You know, maybe be able to sidestep it if you know what's coming.
	When I hear Optimus talk about the reindustrialization of America, by the way, we got to go here in a second.
	They say, well, we're going to reindustrialize with robot manufacturing.
	But then where are we going to get the robots?
	From China.
	Why is China going to sell us robots when they could use them there?
	And they contain all the rare earths that they don't want to export to us.
	No.
	China's going to automate manufacturing first.
	They're doing it now, actually.
	They've got millions of robots.
	Ford executives came back from China.
	This was reported in the Telegraph.
	They said they were terrified of the automation they saw in the auto manufacturing in China because in the U.S., we're 20 years behind that.
	But anyway, Andy, we got to wrap this up.
	Dude, I got to sit down with you someday and have a beer and talk, talk, you know, because you are a wealth of information.
	And what I hope people who watch you realize that you are seeing things well before the crowd does.
	And the things that you've talked about today have opened my eyes quite a bit and have made me want to dig a little bit into the top.
	I always learn from you, Andy, so the feeling is mutual.
	And give out your email address one more time for people who want to get physical gold and silver in their hands.
	Yeah, and I will do my best to make it the best experience I've ever had.
