For folks who don't listen to 17 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: the podcast, you should be listening, but give us a 18 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: summary of what do you all do at Dope Labs. 19 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 2: So at Dope Labs I co hosted with my one 20 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: of my best friends. Her name is Zakiah Wattley. She 21 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 2: also has a PhD hers in genetics and genomics. Mine 22 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 2: is in mechanical engineering and material science, and we show 23 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,559 Speaker 2: how science intersects with pop culture. So it's a really 24 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 2: fun show that is rooted in our friendship because we've 25 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: known each other since grad school. 26 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 1: We bonded in the struggle. 27 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: And we just take things that folks are talking about 28 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 2: in their group chats, things that are tumbling down your timeline, 29 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: and show that there's a little bit of science behind 30 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 2: it all. 31 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: I still remember the very first episode. It might have 32 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: been the episode that the first episode I heard. It 33 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: might have been the first one you did about cuffing season. 34 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: Oh yes, I absolutely loved that episode and that was 35 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: such a great introduction for us to the world because 36 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: it I feel like it just encapsulated everything that we're about, 37 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: you know, the science, the clownery, and you know, talking 38 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: to strangers and hearing all these really funny, amazing stories 39 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: and talking about you know, the ecology behind all of it. 40 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: It's it was really fun. Science, clowning and talking of 41 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: strangers is like the hat trick of things that I enjoy. Yes, 42 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: and I'm want to I mean, I'm excited that you're 43 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: here familiar reasons, but one of the reasons is that 44 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: you all just did a your most recent episode was 45 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: all about how folks should be thinking about AI in 46 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: their own lives. 47 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: Was what was Can give us a little bit a 48 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 2: little taste of that conversation, Yeah, I think the reason 49 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: why we wanted to talk about AI. This was kind 50 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: of like our second episode that we talk about AI. 51 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: We talked about the impacts and the cost of AI, 52 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: and then this most recent one we kind of talked 53 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: about how we can engage in AI in ways that 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: make sense, that fit into our lives and we don't 55 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 2: have to feel, you know, bad about it because AI 56 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: is coming whether we like it or not. And you know, 57 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: there are some things that are really really bad about AI. 58 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: I mean, there's things that are really really bad about 59 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: a lot of technology. But we just want people to 60 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: arm theirselves with knowledge so that as we move forward, 61 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: because this is going to move forward with or without us, 62 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: that we can you know, step into our workspace, we 63 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 2: can step into the rest of the world and know 64 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,119 Speaker 2: one what is out there, make and make an intelligent 65 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: decision about whether or not we want to engage for 66 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: whatever reason, whether it's oh, I'm not going to upload 67 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: photos of me and my kids and my family into 68 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: an AI large language model or Okay, this is how 69 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: I'm going to engage with it. I'm only going to 70 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 2: use this for work. I'm going to make sure that 71 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: I toggle these certain things off so that you can 72 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: use it in ways that you feel comfortable with and 73 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 2: you don't feel like your privacy is being violated. 74 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: And so much of what we do on this show 75 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: is just sort of I guess I'll, for lack of 76 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: a better phrase, arm people with the truth, arm people 77 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: and the facts. And so I talk to people who 78 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: are really skittish about using AI and in any capacity. And 79 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: you know, I think like for folks who are like 80 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: I would never use AI, I would never use tash GPT, 81 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: I totally get it. But I want people to be 82 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: able to make informed decisions have a sense of it. 83 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: So just so don't have a sense that is rooted 84 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: in AI hype of like it can do all of 85 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: these things that it absolutely get off to you. It's 86 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: a good These use cases are great when they're not 87 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: actually good use cases. 88 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: Right. 89 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: Similarly, don't fall into this trap of like you need 90 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: to be afraid of it. You can't use it right. 91 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: I mean, because the way that I always talk about 92 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 2: AI is AI is a new technology. If you think 93 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: back in the history of this world, every time a 94 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: new technology came into the forefront, there was always this 95 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 2: stage where people were terrified. When you think about mathematicians, 96 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: when the advocus was invented, there was this whole big 97 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: thing where it's like, you are not truly intelligent if 98 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 2: you have to use an advocus. Fast forward, when the 99 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 2: calculator first came out, everyone was saying, you should not 100 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: be using a calculator. No one's going to know how 101 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 2: to use their brains anymore. Then you have you know, 102 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 2: the advanced calculators TI eighty nine, We have computers and 103 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 2: everything like that. Then the Internet comes and everybody's like, wow, no, 104 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: this is not something we should be working with. And 105 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 2: now the Internet is ubiquitous, it's everywhere that our fingertips. 106 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 2: And then we he had Google. And when Google first started, 107 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: everyone was very very confused and saying, it's just like 108 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: this cycle with technology where it's like something comes out, 109 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: there's an innovation there, people are like, don't use it. 110 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: You should be scared, and then everybody realizes, oh, it's 111 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 2: not that bad. 112 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: We can live with this, and it actually is making 113 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: our lives better. So it's just important to understand how 114 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: these things work, understand how you can interact with them 115 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: or not interact with them if you don't want to. 116 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 1: I know some people who haven't used the tid In 117 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: not calculator, and that is totally fine. That doesn't make 118 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: them less smart or more smart or whatever. It's just 119 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: if you don't need it, don't use it. So I 120 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: want to talk about the executive orders the Trump administration 121 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: put out about AI, because I'm sure you have thoughts 122 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: I have thus, but before we jump into that, I 123 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: just wanted to really quickly talk about this thing that 124 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: I saw floating all over the internet, and that is 125 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: this Jubilee Media. I guess they're calling it a debate, 126 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: but I'm not even comfortable really using that word. Where 127 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 1: this journalists medi Hassan, who is like a progressive journalists, right, 128 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: I really like respect, do you do? You know what's work? Yes? 129 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: I do really respect him. Loved all of everything that 130 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: he's put out unto same. 131 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: So this clip of him debating twenty far right conservatives 132 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,679 Speaker 1: viral and Jubilee Media. For folks who don't know Jubilee Media. 133 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: They started their founder. I looked into them. Their founders 134 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: said that they started because they were so set up 135 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: with how partisan politics have gotten and they wanted to 136 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: create what he called the Disney Channel for empathy. That 137 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: was a long time ago, because basically what they're more 138 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: known for now is platforming extremists. So you know the 139 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: far right conservatives quote unquotes that they had on the 140 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: show that were debating medi Hassan. They say things like, oh, 141 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: I don't mind being called a Nazi, and yes I 142 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: am a fascist and things like that, And it's really 143 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: clever how this platform has been able to really normalize 144 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:57,119 Speaker 1: and launder these very extreme positions like aligning yourself like 145 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: like explicitly aligning yourself with Nazis is extreme to say 146 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: the least, But then they phrase it as, oh, these 147 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: are conservatives. I mean, I am not a conservative. I 148 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: would not say that it's fair to say, like, oh, 149 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: somebody who aligns themselves with Nazis, that's merely a conservative perspective, right. No. No, 150 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: The viral moment that I want to talk about was 151 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: this guy named Connor. You're a little bit more than 152 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: a far right Republican. Okay, what can I say? I 153 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: think you say I'm a fascist, Yeah, I am so, 154 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: basically Connor and like, of course his name is Connor 155 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: proudly proclaims, yeah, that's right, I'm a fascist. So this 156 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: interview goes viral and Connor he goes on the crowdfunding platform, 157 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: gives sen Goo and says I lost my job. I'm 158 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: trying to cut crowdfund twenty thousand dollars. We actually talked 159 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: about give Seno on our first episode of this season, 160 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: that it's kind of become the platform for people who 161 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: have done something bad in public and then a big 162 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: payday from it. Our earlier episode was about this woman 163 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: who calls a black child a slur on a playground 164 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: and raised almost a million dollars on Gibson Go afterward. 165 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: If you missed that episode, we will put it in 166 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: the show notes. But that woman kind of became a 167 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: right wing celebrity, and I think Connor from Jubilee is 168 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: also on his way there too. He already raised quite 169 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: a bit more than the fifteen thousand dollars he was 170 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: initially asking for, and so you know, there's a lot 171 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: to be said about Jubilee Media and like what they're doing. 172 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: But I mean, I just I I wanted to talk 173 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: about them briefly because I don't think this is going 174 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: to be the last we see of Connor, right, Like, no, 175 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: it's definitely not going to be the last we see 176 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: of him, because you know how they say a watch 177 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: pot never boils. It's like a watched fascist never shress 178 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: the fuck up, you know what I mean? 179 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: And that's T shirt please, it's like you will not 180 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 2: shut up. And I'm just like, that's why I refuse 181 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 2: to click on certain things. If I see the clip, 182 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: I scroll pass. I said, I don't want to contribute 183 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 2: to any of those metrics because I feel like it's 184 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 2: mostly you know, people who are not conservative that are 185 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: running up the numbers because we're so outraged, and so 186 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 2: they're using outrage as currency. And I'm just like, no, 187 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: I don't want to contribute to this guy's notoriety. 188 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to. 189 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: Contribute to, you know, it being pushed more and more 190 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: onto people's fees, Like we have to stop giving them 191 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 2: a microphone. I'm so sick of it. Who else did that? 192 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 2: It was what was his name, otto Acho or whatever? 193 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 2: Who had that show where he was talking to racist. 194 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 2: I was like, this is the dumbest idea ever. Why 195 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: not use that microphone to talk to somebody who actually 196 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 2: has brains in their head and is willing to have 197 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 2: smart conversations, not these really old, outdated conversations. If we 198 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: stop giving these folks microphones and turning up the volume 199 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: just so that we can get clicks. 200 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: They will eventually shut up. And it will they won't 201 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: be able to give all of these other people out 202 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: in the world who are looking for, you know, verbiage 203 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: to use in their little racist conversations. They won't have 204 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: anything to say. 205 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: They'll have nothing to have in their mouths to then 206 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 2: regurgitate onto the rest of us exactly. 207 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: And my thing about people like Connor is that if 208 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: it wasn't for Jubilee Media giving him a platform, he'd 209 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: probably just be like typing his opinions on our Reddit threat. Honest, 210 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: he would not be our problem. And giving him a microphone, 211 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 1: giving him a platform, giving him a way to to 212 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: make a little bit of coin for himself, or the 213 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: abhorrent views, I think really is the problem. And you 214 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: put it so well, I do think this is We're 215 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: not in twenty sixteen anymore, right, There was a time 216 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: where people wanted to talk about like, oh, defeat the 217 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 1: al alt right in the marketplace of ideas, just debate them, 218 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: debate them. No, in twenty sixteen, this style of debate 219 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: content is a scam. It's not informing anybody. Yes, And 220 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: I guess ultimately I strongly feel like there is no 221 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: debating people, Like, how do you debate somebody who with 222 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: their full chest says yes, I am a fascist. When 223 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: you don't have a shared reality, there is no way 224 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: to have a debate. And I think that we should 225 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: stop acting like this is anything other than a spectacle 226 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: and right wing a starmaker machine. 227 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 2: You can't call it a debate because it's you're not 228 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 2: talking to somebody reasonable. You know, you have to have reason, 229 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: you have to have something, you have to have intelligent 230 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 2: thought in order to have a debate with someone. You 231 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: can't just say I'm a fascist and cross your arms 232 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: and say, yeah, that's what it is. 233 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: That's what it is. 234 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 2: That's not someone that you can debate. That is just 235 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: a that is it's like talking to a brick wall. Honestly, 236 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: like that's they don't. 237 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: Have any because they will. 238 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: What they will try and do is make you become 239 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 2: the intellectual and they they will you will have to 240 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: intellectualize their fascism. There is no intellectual roots to racism 241 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 2: and fascism. There's nothing intellectual about it. But this whole 242 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 2: conversation that that folks are having around all of this, 243 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:02,599 Speaker 2: because we keep giving these people microphones is intellectualizing something. 244 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: That is at its core not intellectual exactly. And the 245 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: way that you put that makes it so clear that 246 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: like if you say, like when it's like when black 247 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: lives matter. In the height of the Black Lives Matter movement, 248 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: there was a lot of that debate style content, and 249 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: it's like, how do I debate somebody who doesn't feel 250 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 1: that I deserve rights? How do I abate somebody that 251 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: doesn't think I'm human? Like what, like what can I say? 252 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: That would be like, oh, you got me. We're not 253 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: having that, We're not speaking the same language at a 254 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: certain point, right, And there's no conversation to be had 255 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 1: period exactly. And I mean I definitely have gotten offers 256 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: from not from a Jubilee, but from similar platforms that 257 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: are like, oh, come on, and then you can be 258 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: the sort of like progressive voice or a feminist voice. 259 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: And I just don't think in twenty twenty five, any 260 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: serious person all to be participating in this, Like I 261 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: already it doesn't matter. I could, I could go on 262 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: those platforms and make the most well formed argument, but 263 00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: I still know regardless, it's gonna be you know, conservative 264 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: Republican takes down feminists like because that's really what they're after, right. 265 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: They're not after any kind of like actual moment of 266 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: clarity or empathy or understanding each other. It's just a 267 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: ridge debate with a foregone conclusion. 268 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: Right, And even if you go in there and you 269 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 2: cut them up to shreds, they're gonna clip it up 270 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: so that it looks like you got tongue tied, like 271 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 2: you were stumped. And no, you're not gonna let me 272 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 2: fall victim to the editing. This is not love and 273 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 2: hip hop. Okay, hey, this is not Love Island. 274 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: You're not gonna have me looking like a fool just 275 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: because you wanted to clip me up and now I'm 276 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: looking crazy. Yes, exactly. Let's take a quick break at 277 00:13:55,080 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: our back, Okay, Gezi, we have to talk about somebody 278 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: who I am a little bit I have a weird 279 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 1: obsession with Maybe obsession is the wrong word, Okay, that 280 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: is Candice Owens. I have people who listen to the show. 281 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: I have described her as my shadow self because I 282 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: feel that she's almost like a fun house mirror version 283 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: of myself. I know that sounds well, but we did 284 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: an episode about her rise that I see so much 285 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: of myself In her early days, we were both, you know, 286 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: people who like to talk about politics on the early 287 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: days of the internet. She back in the day when 288 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: we were both doing this at the same time, she 289 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: was actually a progressive voice, and she had a very 290 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: specific switch where she went onto some of her more 291 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: like noxious extremist views. So she also is somebody who 292 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: I think is prone to hyperfixation, which I also am, 293 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: although her hyperfixations are very different than mine. Hers are 294 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: things like Blake Lively is lying about everything, or Harvey 295 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: Weinstein is actually a victim, the victim of me too. 296 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: And one of her most recent hyper fixations has been 297 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: the First Lady of France, Bridget Macrone, the wife of 298 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: the French President Emmanuel Mark Macrone. Owens spent months months 299 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: building out this increasingly elaborate, completely unfounded conspiracy that the 300 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: First Lady of France is trans. She does it before 301 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: you ask. She has no proof of this. This is 302 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: just something she's like. It's like she she initially started 303 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: calling it a gut feeling, and it's so fucked up 304 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: because initially she was it was like clearly like she 305 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: basically has never had any proof, and she's gone from 306 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: being like, this is a gut feeling. I have to 307 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: I have the proof of this, I have the receipts, 308 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: and so I have quietly been wondering where this all 309 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: ends for her for a while, and we may have 310 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: her answer because this week the French president and his 311 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: wife file the defamation lawsuit in the US against Owen's 312 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: centered on her claim that the First Lady is trans. 313 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: So they filed this complaint in the Delaware Superior Court, 314 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: saying that Owens has waged a lie filled campaign of 315 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: global humiliation to promote her podcast and expand her frenzied 316 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: fan base. As somebody who keeps tabs on what she's 317 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: up to, I wholeheartedly agree with how they're characterizing this, 318 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: because I've honestly seen I don't call it missed reporting, 319 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: but I've seen it reported like as if Candice Owens 320 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: just said this at a party or something that she 321 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: just casually said this once or twice, and that's actually 322 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: not what's going on in reality. She has made multiple 323 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: podcasts and videos cleaning who have found smoking guns and 324 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: claiming to have all this evidence, like she's got like 325 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: a string board and she's connecting the DUTs on this 326 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: claim that she's made like very concrete claims, and she's 327 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: gotten millions of viewers, which translates to cash to her 328 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: for this lie. So it's not like she's just like 329 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: saying this and they're coming after for saying this like 330 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: casually once or twice, as I feel like some of 331 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: the reportings suggest she has really monetized this unfounded lie 332 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: and builken into a whole conspiracy theory with her millions 333 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 1: of viewers. Yeah. 334 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 2: I mean that's the bread and butter for folks like 335 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 2: Candice Owens because what their base it fails to grasp 336 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 2: onto is fact and so then they have to think 337 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 2: very very like dark meta. Yeah you know what I mean, 338 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: where it's like no, no, no, y'all are so blinded 339 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 2: by facts that you're missing all of this mystery and 340 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 2: nothing over here. And it's like that's how she that's 341 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 2: how she makes her money. She just makes something up 342 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 2: and then runs with it and it's like, oh, but 343 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: look at this, Oh why did she cross her legs 344 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: like this? Instead of like it's ridiculous, it's honestly ridiculous. 345 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 2: And anytime somebody is doing something like this, I'm always 346 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 2: just like, this is Olympic level like jumping, Like you're 347 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 2: going from one thing, you're doing an absolute triple jump. 348 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 2: You gold medalist in this jump that you're doing trying 349 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 2: to get to whatever conclusion and the other part of 350 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 2: it that I'm which is my issue with everyone that 351 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 2: has issue with transgender folks, why do we care? Like 352 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 2: I'm just like, and if she is, like, why do 353 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 2: you care? 354 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: Who's doing abandon. 355 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 3: Who cares? 356 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about what Matt Cralin is doing with 357 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: his partner, his wife. I don't care what they do 358 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: in their bedroom. I care about his policy. How is 359 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: that going to affect his people? The folks in the 360 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: United States the world don't. I don't even know what 361 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: his wife looks like. 362 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 2: Like the fact that she's putting so much energy into this, 363 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 2: I'm like, can this girlfriend, now imagine if you put 364 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: this same level of intensity into anything else, Yes, you 365 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 2: would be able to do anything you could take over 366 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 2: this world, but you choose to hyper focus. 367 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: On these really ridiculous things. 368 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 2: I'm like, use your powers for good, not evil, and 369 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 2: don't get yourself in prison or sue to the point 370 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 2: where you can't even afford a microphone because you want 371 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 2: to do this. It's crazy. 372 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: You put it so perfectly, the way that she has 373 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: picked apart every little iteration of their appearance, their marriage, 374 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,439 Speaker 1: their friends, their family, their personal history, the way that 375 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: the way that Brigitte's hair will fall, like, oh, that 376 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: should tell tales. I'm like, like, she is dead. And 377 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: then sometimes it'll be like the absence of evidence is 378 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: what the evidence is. It's like, well, if she wasn't, 379 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: if she wasn't actually trends, don't you think, like it's 380 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: it is such a rabbit hole. And keep it in 381 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: mind that Brigitte and Emmanuel Macrone, they've been in a 382 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,959 Speaker 1: romantic relationship since for a very long time. Like their 383 00:19:55,080 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: relationship is its own weird thing, Like they met when 384 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: Brigitte was a teacher at his school when he was 385 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,239 Speaker 1: fifteen and she was in her thirties, And they met 386 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: in drama club at a school that like he was 387 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: a student and and she was a teacher into like 388 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: now that I know, I mean like exactly, so like 389 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: they're actually focused on the wrong thing a thousand percent. 390 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 1: There actually is stuff where it's like, well, who to 391 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: talk about how we're their marriage is? That's right there, 392 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: Like that's like Lagitimately we should be talking about screw 393 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: he focus on the wrong thing, like talk about the 394 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: real stuff. I did not know that no side eye 395 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: and the whole thing. If you wanted to make podcast 396 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 1: episodes about them, there's a lot to say that is 397 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: a mertle ground for discussion, and so you don't actually 398 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: need to make up these completely unfounded claims. Yeah. So 399 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: Owens responded to the lawsuit. She says, this lawsuit is 400 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: a littered with factual inaccuracies and part of an obvious 401 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: and desperate public relations strategy to smear my character. And 402 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: my question is this, why would the president of France 403 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: want to smear this random American podcaster other than the 404 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: fact that she keeps telling these outlandish lies about her, 405 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: like like like why why he's busy doing French president stuff? 406 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: You think he can even want to like target you 407 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: like a random right wing podcaster. 408 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely not right, It's it's really ridiculous. And I also 409 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 2: saw that she says something like, oh, you're just suing 410 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 2: me so you can have it on record that you 411 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: sued me. 412 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:28,479 Speaker 1: But I'll see you in court. Girl. This ain't what 413 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: you want. No, ain't what you gonna is not gonna say, oh, 414 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: you have to prove that you are biologically female. 415 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 2: They're not gonna do that. They're gonna say that you 416 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 2: have no reason to believe that you. It is baseless, 417 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: and so you're in trouble, and sister, those dollars ain't 418 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 2: set up the right way, especially now that you haven't 419 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 2: always been aligning yourself with everything that Trump's doing. So 420 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 2: I feel like you've lost a little bit of your base. 421 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: They're not gonna say, sister, they're not gonna save you 422 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 2: in this instance. 423 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: You're just gonna be broke. Okay. Yeah, this is a mistake, 424 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: and it is something that we we we've talked about 425 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: this on the show, but it's I think it's something 426 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: that we've seen more and more of where someone, often 427 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: like an extremist, will go on a smear campaign and 428 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: the only recourse is suing them for defamation. And we've 429 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: seen it work. So it's a business model. Now, yeah, 430 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: it is. It kind of is, and like I I mean, 431 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: it's it sounds like from reading the lawsuit that they're like, 432 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: we gave her ample opportunity to just stop this. We 433 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: were like, we wouldn't. And so I do think like 434 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: they would not have pursued this if they did not 435 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: feel like they had to. And I think the fact 436 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: that she has shown no signs of planning on reversing 437 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,479 Speaker 1: course on this and just shutting up and saving herself 438 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: the trouble makes me think that they're that that's true. 439 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: They had to do this. 440 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: Listen, if I had that level intensity about anything, I 441 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 2: just want to bottle what she has and. 442 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 1: Used it in the right way. Yahsi your energy girl. 443 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: My god. 444 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, get you somebody who is so 445 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 2: fixed sated on you like that. But you don't want 446 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 2: that type ofation. That's too much stalking talk to that. 447 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: Okay. So should we talk about Trump's woke AI executive orders? Huh? 448 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean it would be wild to do a podcast 449 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: episode and not, so let's just get into it. So 450 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: Trump signed three AI focused executive orders on Wednesday aimed 451 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: at keeping woke AI models that's his word out of 452 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: Washington and hopefully this idea of turning America into an 453 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: AI export powerhouse. So there are three executive orders of this. 454 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: I will quickly summarize two of them, and I want 455 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: to focus on one of them kind of exclusively, but 456 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: I'll give you the sense of like what's going on 457 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 1: with everything so perfect. One is called Promoting the Export 458 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: of the American AI Technology Stack, which aims to support 459 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: the export of American developed AI systems. Its main mechanism 460 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 1: seem to be financing support for American AI companies to 461 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: facilitate them and licensing them to allied nations. It honestly 462 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: is pretty light on specifics, which, like surprise, surprise, an 463 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: EO is like light on specific side of this administration. 464 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 1: Who could have thought? But all the stated goal anyway 465 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: is to establish the US as like the leader of 466 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 1: the global leader in AI. I will say, like, to me, 467 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: it really does seem like it's a good opportunity for 468 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: American tax dollars to subsidize big tech companies even further, 469 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: particularly those companies that the Trump administration favors. Like mm hmm. 470 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,719 Speaker 1: I'm expert in this, but reading what they put out 471 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: of all this just seems like a big gift to 472 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: Trump tech cronies. So something to know. Mm hm. The 473 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: next EO is called Accelerating Federal Permitting of Data Center Infrastructure, 474 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: which exclusively focuses on building new large data center projects. 475 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: Those were acquiring at least one hundred megawats of power. 476 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: So I am not a scientist or an engineer, so 477 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: you can let me know if I have this right. 478 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: I did a little bit of research, and how does 479 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: seem like one hundred megawatts is what you might think 480 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: of as like at the larger end of what is 481 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: normal for a data center? Is that puviny cent of that? 482 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: I think? So? Yeah, okay, And this Executive Order calls 483 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 1: on agencies to remove environmental regulatory hurdles so that the 484 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: negative impacts of the environment or water resources are not 485 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: a barrier to what everybody wants, which is the construction 486 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: of new large data centers, which okay, I mean there 487 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: are literally people who do not have water in their 488 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: households because of data centers. There are communities like the 489 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: neighborhood in Tennessee where Elon Musk built a massive data center, 490 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 1: no longer have clean air. This Executive Order basically is 491 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: like fuck them Maribobi, Fine, we need this technology. Yeah, 492 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: And it's a. 493 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,880 Speaker 2: In my opinion, it's a ruse because it's like, it's 494 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 2: not really about the technology. It's about the people who 495 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 2: are going to be making money from building these data 496 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 2: centers and expanding their empires. It's really not about And 497 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 2: that's what I also want people to understand about like 498 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 2: AI and these technologies that are coming down the pike. 499 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 2: It's like the reason why the government is so hyper 500 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: focused on it. Anytime the government is doing all of this, 501 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 2: or you have a president that is like just so 502 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: laser focused on something, you have to start really thinking 503 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 2: where is the money going? That should always be the 504 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 2: first question, because if you're thinking about the greater good 505 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 2: of America and how do we make ourselves more technologically 506 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: advanced and all these things like that, you would invest 507 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 2: in education first and foremost. You would make sure that 508 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: people that everybody in the like everybody that is coming 509 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 2: up in the US education system, understands how to code, 510 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 2: that they understand like how a semic conductor chip works, 511 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 2: that they know how these models work. 512 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,400 Speaker 1: We're not doing that. We're not investing in education. They're 513 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: like build the things, and that's because when you build 514 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: the things and you start to make product, you can 515 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: sell it all over the world. 516 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 2: That means people are making money. And so I'm just 517 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 2: like all of these executive orders, all of these it's 518 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 2: just a formal way of lining their own pockets. Because Trump, 519 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 2: he's thinking, after this presidency is over, I need to 520 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 2: make sure that I'm setting things up so I make 521 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 2: the most amount of money possible and make my rich 522 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 2: friends happy so that just in case I need them, 523 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 2: you know, they can you know, slim me a little, 524 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 2: a little some something. And so that's always what I 525 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 2: think about it. I'm like, it doesn't make sense for 526 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 2: you to say we want to be leaders in technology 527 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 2: but not investing in education. Who gonna do it. 528 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 1: Who's gonna do it, Who's gonna advance us if we 529 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: are not making sure that college is affordable, that K 530 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: through twelve schools, that they have the resources that they need, 531 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: that teachers are being paid in a that a teacher 532 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: is being paid the amount that a living wage, that 533 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: they can go to these schools and be able to 534 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: arm these children with knowledge, training teachers, like making sure 535 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: that defunding academic institutions like Harvard and all these things 536 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: like that. It doesn't those two things don't go together. 537 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: You can't say we need to be the leaders in 538 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: this technology. But then also, Department of Education, you're going 539 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: to the dumps, and I think we're doing exactly the 540 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: opposite of what we should be doing. It's like we've 541 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: It's like this administration has clocked that an educated, critical, 542 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: upwardly mobile scenery is not is not going to be 543 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: conducive to the way that they're trying to do business. 544 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: I think I think all of all of the way 545 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: that they're moving tells me that that that's what they've deduced. 546 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, that's exactly it. I feel like you hit 547 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 2: the nail right on the head. 548 00:28:53,800 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: More after a quick break, let's get right back into it. 549 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: So let's talk about the woke AI bit of this. 550 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: That's not me. I mean, I don't know, I don't 551 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: understand what that is same And so here's the thing. 552 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: When I was seeing woke AI everywhere in all the headlines, 553 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: I was like, well, certainly this is like they're extrapolating 554 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: or they're using that as a stand in. No, that 555 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: is actually the name of the executive order, the Executive 556 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: Order US called the preventing woke AI in the federal government. Hi, 557 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: when I tell you that, I would pay good money 558 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: to have Trump like sit down and explain to me, like, 559 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: what do you when you say WHOAOKAI? What do you mean? 560 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: Give me some specifics. And he probably couldn't. 561 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 2: No, he probably couldn't because I think it's just like 562 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 2: anything any AI that would say anything negative about him 563 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 2: and his administration. 564 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: Basically that's basically it. 565 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so now we're talking about another hit to 566 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: freedom of speech and things like that. And when people 567 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 2: are thinking about AI, they're like, oh, well, AI is 568 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 2: not a human. It's not AI is not built from nothing. 569 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 2: It The way that AI works is that it take 570 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 2: it crawls the entire Internet and grabs everything that's out there, 571 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: every single corner, every single piece of the Internet. That 572 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: is what it's working from. So if he's saying I 573 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 2: don't want AI to use to have anything in it 574 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 2: that says these specific things, that's basically putting a blackout 575 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 2: on parts of the Internet. When it comes to AI, 576 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 2: AI people think of AI as like this robot that's 577 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 2: just super fast at learning, and I'm like to learn something. 578 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 2: Things have to exist, and so like Yes, there are 579 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 2: issues with you know, creativity and using people's image and likeness. 580 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,719 Speaker 1: Yes, I get all of that. But when we're talking 581 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: about censoring AI, he's censoring us. 582 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 2: He's ansoring the people. And that's what people need to understand. 583 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: It's like, oh yeah, sure, woki no wo ki. That 584 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 2: is words, that is images that are there that the 585 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 2: AI is learning from that will not be used. So 586 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 2: it's the same thing as burning down a library or 587 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 2: a whole section of a library. It's the same thing 588 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 2: as taking away access to certain parts of the Internet 589 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: like they. 590 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: Do in China. You know, they don't allow them to 591 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: have things like TikTok, and they like the way that 592 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: their internet works is not the way our internet works. 593 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: And that's essentially what he's trying to do. 594 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 2: And we have to really keep our eyes open because 595 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 2: you can come up with a lot of like fancy 596 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 2: white house house legal ways legal quote unquote to censor 597 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 2: whole populations of people. 598 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I had never even thought about it that way, 599 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: but that is something that's a drum that we beat 600 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: a lot on the show that AI is people, right, 601 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: it's yeah, by people trained by people. It's not you know, 602 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: it's it's not a computer brain or something right for us. 603 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: And so what you're saying is that this sort of 604 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: preventing woke AI executive order, that's like, no, AI must 605 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: not have anything that have Messa must not have any 606 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: kind of ideological agenda. That's just another way of censoring 607 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: the Internet and ultimately censoring us expression. 608 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 2: Exactly because if I'm if I'm using uh, the Internet 609 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 2: and I'm creating blog posts that I'm talking about my 610 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 2: experience as a black woman and stem my experience as 611 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 2: a black woman in America, and I'm saying I feel 612 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 2: like this certain legislation is not right, or that i 613 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 2: feel like I'm being disenfranchised, and all these things like that, 614 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 2: the AI models will not be able to pull from 615 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: my blog in order to answer someone's question that might 616 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 2: be like, in twenty twenty five, what was it like 617 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 2: to live in America for a black woman? I'm silenced. 618 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 2: It's quiet, everybody on mute. And that's dangerous because you 619 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 2: essentially can rewrite history. Imagine if we could go into 620 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: every single library, take books and just rip out whole 621 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 2: sections and say, Nope, that didn't happen. 622 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: That is what is happening. That's what the technology is. 623 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: The Internet is something that we has is boundless, but 624 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: there is absolutely the ability to censor, and we have 625 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 2: to really be careful because these are the stories. These 626 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 2: are the stories that tell what history was. Our experiences. 627 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 2: People might you know, pooh pooh doing a blog or 628 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 2: you know, vlogging your life. These are archives that people 629 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: one hundred years from now will watch, Like when we 630 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 2: see videos from those old black and white videos that 631 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 2: they restore and we're like, wow, look at those. 632 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: People walking around. Oh my goodness, that's so cool. 633 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 2: Are you trying to tell me that we will that's 634 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 2: our whole experience as black women won't be there. We 635 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,919 Speaker 2: won't like your podcast won't be my podcast won't be there. 636 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: Like images of us at marches, images of our family 637 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 2: like having like having community won't be there because they 638 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 2: might say, oh that that's woke. Black family reunions is 639 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 2: too woke for the internet. We really have to be careful. 640 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 2: We really have to like sit up and take notice 641 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 2: of these of these ways that we're also being censored 642 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 2: and that they're trying to rewrite history and silence us. 643 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 1: Because if they silence us in this. 644 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 2: Technology, we're in a really dangerous spot for the history 645 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: being told. And as we know, history always repeats itself, 646 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 2: and especially if that that narrative is not there. I mean, 647 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 2: look at how long we went. I feel like how 648 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 2: long America went with Native Americans and understanding the history 649 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:08,760 Speaker 2: and the plight of Native Americans, like the indigenous people 650 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 2: of America. 651 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: It's they should want it back in blood. 652 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 2: Honestly, it's pretty sick that we have, you know, sports 653 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:18,439 Speaker 2: teams that are like. 654 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: The chiefs the Indians, like they should want it back 655 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: in blood. And that's what happens, That's what will happen 656 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: to whole populations. 657 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 2: And some people who are part of Trump's space might 658 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 2: be like, oh, well, I don't care because that isn't me. 659 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 1: It's gonna be you too. 660 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 661 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 2: You think you live in Appalachia and you think that 662 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 2: they want to hear about your struggles. 663 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 1: No, they don't want to hear about your struggles either. 664 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: They don't want to hear that you can't afford to 665 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: pay to get groceries for your your family this week. 666 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: You want food stamps. They don't want to hear that either. 667 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: That's woke. We're all in danger. We are in danger, 668 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: and we really need to take notice. I mean, I 669 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 1: completely agree you put that so well, and I do 670 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,280 Speaker 1: think when you look at the words and this executive 671 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 1: order under the like with the lens that you just 672 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: laid out, it's clear that's exactly what they're doing. They're right, 673 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: They're right there carving out any part of the experience 674 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 1: of being a human that they don't align with and 675 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: don't like. And what I find so fucked up is 676 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: that it relies on this idea that there is sort 677 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: of one objective truth and who gets to decide that 678 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 1: the Trump administration so exactly the truth of like, even 679 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: if you're a white person in Appalachia who can't afford groceries, 680 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: the truth that the Trump administration wants to give is 681 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 1: that groceries have never been cheaper and everybody. So that's 682 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: so get that right out of there. And yeah, I 683 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: mean the way that they in this executive Order, they 684 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: basically spell out that we get to decide what is 685 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: and is not objective, what is it is not truth? 686 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: What is it is not They've come up with this 687 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: term that they basically disinvented, that of whole cloth unbiased 688 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: AI principles, And essentially that means that they are only 689 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 1: supporting AI models that meet this term of unbiased that 690 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 1: they have just decided themselves. 691 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, the when you talk about anything that is man 692 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 2: made and saying that it is unbiased, it's just not possible. 693 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 2: There was a study done a while ago, I don't 694 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 2: I don't remember what year it was, but they had 695 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 2: an AI model crawl the entire Internet and basically create 696 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,240 Speaker 2: a personality based on what they found on the Internet. 697 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 2: And that model was racist. It was sexist, and it 698 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: was xenophobic, and like, that's just based off of what's 699 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 2: on the Internet. And so it started out with nothing 700 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,439 Speaker 2: and then said they said build from here. Just crawl 701 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 2: the internet, read as much as you can. And it 702 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 2: crawled the entire Internet. And that's what the result was. 703 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 2: Everything that is man made is biased. Everything. Like the 704 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 2: term biased, I think people always think of it in 705 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 2: one direction. If I were to make something, it's gonna 706 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: be biased. You know, if I make something for if 707 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 2: I make a product that I use for my hair, well, 708 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 2: my hair is very specific type. Okay, I have afro 709 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 2: hair that I love and that product is going to 710 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 2: work in my hair. Now you go next door to them, 711 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 2: white folks, they might not enjoy that product because I 712 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 2: made it and it was biased, absolutely, And so this 713 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 2: whole idea of something being unbiased, it is just again 714 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 2: a ruse, like it's just not possible. Anything made by 715 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,959 Speaker 2: man is biased. You now, you can go to great 716 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 2: lengths to make sure that lots of biases are represented 717 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 2: in the making of a product. So if I again, 718 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 2: if I'm using that same example, let's say I want 719 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 2: to make a hair product, I can say, Okay, I'm 720 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 2: going to go talk to my my one of my 721 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 2: best friends who're from the Dominican Republic. I'm going to 722 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 2: talk to another one of my best friends who's black 723 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: but has a really loose curl pattern. 724 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:13,399 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk to one of my friends who 725 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: is white. 726 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 2: I'm going to talk to one of my friends who 727 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 2: has alopecia and figure out, like, what are you looking 728 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 2: for in products? That is a way to take a 729 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 2: lot of biases into. 730 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: Account when you're creating something. 731 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 2: But to say something has no bias, it almost does 732 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 2: not make sense to me at all. 733 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 3: More after a quick break, let's get right back into it. 734 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 1: And I think one of the most frustrating things about 735 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: this e EO is that it's specifically names that it 736 00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: does not want any kind of quote DEI in the 737 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,439 Speaker 1: in AI, which already it's like, I mean, I hate 738 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: when Trump kind of makes me think through the logic 739 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 1: of the things they put out. I'm like, what do 740 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: they mean by that exactly? But in the real world, 741 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: having more voices at the table, having a diversity of 742 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: folks educated on AI, working in AI, building models, training models, 743 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: all of that that can only help us, Like that 744 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: is that is like one of the ways, one of 745 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,720 Speaker 1: the tools in our toolbox to combat bias in AI AI. 746 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: Then it's harmful AI that doesn't recognize us for the 747 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: like multi faceted people that we are. Is having a 748 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: plurality of people and perspectives at the table, and this 749 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 1: executive order, it says. They say DEI and AI can 750 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 1: lead to discriminatory outcomes, distort and manipulate AI model outputs 751 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: in regard to race and sex, incorporate concepts like critical 752 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: race theory, transgenderism, unconscious bias, intersectionality, and systemic racism. DEI 753 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,399 Speaker 1: displaces the commitment to truth in favor of preferred outcomes, and, 754 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: as recent history illustrate, it poses an existential threat to 755 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: reliable AI and that's what I think kills me is 756 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: that we know AI can be biased, can be sexist, 757 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: can be racist, all of this stuff, Like we know 758 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 1: that because it's trained on us, and like humans, those 759 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: are all pitfalls that humans unfortunately struggle with. And so 760 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,240 Speaker 1: this idea that, oh, the way that we make AI 761 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: good is making sure that there there's no even whiff 762 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 1: of inclusion around AI. I mean, it's it's I shouldn't 763 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: even try to find any kind of logic in the 764 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: things that they put out. But it doesn't. It just 765 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 1: it just doesn't make any sense. And I think when 766 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 1: we're talking about something as critical as AI, that we're 767 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: all having this big conversation about how AIM is going 768 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: to change all of our lives, right, you know the 769 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 1: fact that we can we're not having like these are 770 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: not serious people, We're not there's a there are serious 771 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 1: conversations because you're having. But like in lieu of that, 772 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: we're putting out nonsense that doesn't even make any fucking 773 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,080 Speaker 1: sense exactly. 774 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 2: And that, I mean, that just goes back to what 775 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 2: I was saying earlier, where it's just like they will 776 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 2: try and make you intellectualize things that are at their 777 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 2: core not intellectual at all. 778 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: It's just racist. 779 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 2: Like when you think of the history of racism, there's 780 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 2: this really brilliant researcher, her name is Angela Saini, who 781 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 2: does a lot of research on race and the history 782 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,800 Speaker 2: of racism, and I learned so much from her books. 783 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 1: But racism is not like racism made up thing. 784 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 2: We all know that, and racism was a science as 785 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,240 Speaker 2: at one point, like the research that went into trying 786 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 2: to prove that there was a more superior race. But 787 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: then all of that research was racist, impious and not true, 788 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 2: not rooted in anything that was true. And so I 789 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 2: just feel like the more we don't call this what 790 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: it is when we see it, it makes it an 791 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 2: intellectual conversation and it's truly not. And so then when 792 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 2: people like you and I start to try and talk 793 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 2: about it, it makes it really difficult because and that's 794 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 2: why it's hard to have conversations with people like that, 795 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 2: because you just you. 796 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 1: Don't even know what to say, because it's just like. 797 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 2: If someone says I believe in unicorns, and you're like, 798 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 2: have you ever seen one? 799 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 1: No, but they're they're real. It's like, okay, but you've 800 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: seen horses, right, Yes, but unicorns are the best. Do 801 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: you where are they? Does it matter? You tell me 802 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: where they are? 803 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: What? 804 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 2: These types of conversations just they are fruitless, and so 805 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,320 Speaker 2: it's always just so frustrating. There's a quote from Maya 806 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 2: Angelou that Zakiah says all the time when it comes 807 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 2: to like talking to racists, and she says, somebody says 808 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,280 Speaker 2: you have no language, and so you spend twenty years 809 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 2: proving that you do. Somebody says your head is and 810 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 2: shape properly, so you have scientists working on the fact 811 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 2: that it is. Someone says you have no art, so 812 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 2: you dredge that up. Somebody says you have no kingdoms, 813 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 2: and so you dredge that up. None of that is necessary. 814 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 2: There will always be one more thing. 815 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: We I That's a quote that I find a lot 816 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 1: of wisdom in and I'm recurring to and I guess 817 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: that's my main point, is the distraction of it all. 818 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 1: And that's the thing. It's like from listening to your 819 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: episode on the on AI like AI is come, but 820 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 1: there there are lots of reasons to be critical of 821 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 1: AI and syptical of AI and absolute talk about the 822 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: ways that it's flawed and biased. I am right there, 823 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: but when we are when the dominant conversation that the 824 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: president puts out is something that is such a distraction, 825 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: and it's it's such a like culture war, like just 826 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 1: stoking the flames of division, when along the lines that's 827 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: something that is so important. I just I mean, there's 828 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 1: not I mean I should be used to it from 829 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,560 Speaker 1: this administration by now, but I just think, what a miss. 830 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: And it takes me back to we did an episode 831 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: with doctor Joe Bolamwini, who was one of the people 832 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: who worked on the Biden administration's Executive Order on AI 833 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 1: right that EO. It wasn't perfect, but it definitely was like, 834 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: let's put a few guarbrails on this, let's get a 835 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 1: sense of like how this should be developed. Let's make 836 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: sure that the voices who are talking about this and 837 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 1: thinking about this are a little more diverse. The fact 838 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,760 Speaker 1: that we went from that like like certainly not perfect, 839 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: but like someone who had some goddamn sense was talking 840 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 1: fucking sense on the issue to this in just a 841 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 1: few months. It really it makes my head. 842 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: Spin, honestly, and I think that that's part of the tactic, 843 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 2: is to make us so tired that we will just 844 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 2: basically lie down and just be like enough, I like, 845 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 2: just let whatever happen happen. 846 00:45:56,239 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 1: And so I think, like we recently interviewed Chelsea. 847 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 2: Clinton on the show, and that was one of her 848 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 2: parting messages that she left with us, and it was 849 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:08,839 Speaker 2: that we should not stop because that's like they're trying 850 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: to disorient us, They're trying to fatigue us, They're trying 851 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 2: to make us be quiet, and we should keep calling 852 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 2: things out. We should keep researching and asking questions and 853 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:24,399 Speaker 2: asking hard questions and pushing our local lawmakers and our 854 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 2: state lawmakers and the president and his cabinet and making 855 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 2: sure that we don't let these like diversion tactics and 856 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 2: these tactics that they're using to make us be quiet work. 857 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 2: Because the first thirty days of this administration was just 858 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:45,879 Speaker 2: everything was just coming so fast and curious, and I 859 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 2: was just like, oh my gosh, like I was having 860 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 2: to like in the morning, I would wake up and 861 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 2: be like, maybe I should just not look at my 862 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 2: phone for like an hour, have a cup of coffee, 863 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 2: like pretend like all is right in the world. 864 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 1: But now I'm like, no, I need. 865 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 2: Like I might give myself a little bit of time, 866 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 2: but I'm getting right back into it because being on 867 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 2: shows like this talking about these things and putting more 868 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 2: out there is so so important.

It really 934 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: does unpack all of. 935 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 2: Our lives and it's it's so true, and it's like 936 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,760 Speaker 2: that's one of the things that Key and I always 937 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 2: try and do with the show is just trying to 938 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 2: create a space where people don't feel like we're preaching 939 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 2: to them, like we're learning. We are always learning with 940 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,359 Speaker 2: the people who are listening to our show, and it's 941 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 2: so important for folks to know like the scientific process, 942 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 2: and we go through the scientific process in every single episode. 943 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 2: You do it here on your podcast as well. The 944 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 2: amount of research that goes into it. That is the 945 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 2: scientific method, and you get to a conclusion and that 946 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 2: is not you just pulling anything you know. 947 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 1: Out of your head. 948 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 2: You do a lot of research. They get to the 949 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 2: conclusions that you do that is scientific. You are a scientist, 950 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:14,760 Speaker 2: you're a cultural scientist, and people need to start feeling 951 00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,760 Speaker 2: empowered to be to do that, to take the extra 952 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 2: step to do the research, ask an additional question, like 953 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,920 Speaker 2: really not just read the headline, but read the full article, 954 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 2: see what the sources are, see what that study was, Oh, they. 955 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: Only talk to ten people that night. 956 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 2: Might not be enough to say, oh ninety percent of 957 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 2: people do this or do that. You probably need a 958 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,440 Speaker 2: larger sample size. Those are the things that you should 959 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 2: be doing. And that's what we're trying to teach people. 960 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 2: We don't want anybody to feel like, oh, I'm not 961 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 2: smart enough, or I can't do this, or that. 962 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:45,840 Speaker 1: We want to. 963 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:49,759 Speaker 2: Empower folks to ask those questions and know that there 964 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 2: is no such thing as a silly question. And you know, 965 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 2: in some instances, like when we were talking about the 966 00:51:55,160 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 2: vaccine back in twenty twenty, like we really sounded the 967 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 2: alarm on why people are vaccine hesitant, why people of 968 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,240 Speaker 2: color are vaccine hesitant, And it's not because they're stupid. 969 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: It's because it's rooted in real. 970 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 2: History, like medical history, where black folks were experimented on 971 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 2: and sterilized and all these things like that. So the 972 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,839 Speaker 2: distrust of the medical community is not baseless. So there's 973 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,400 Speaker 2: a certain level of care you need to come you 974 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 2: need to come into those conversations with because like people 975 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:31,239 Speaker 2: of color are not just are not stupid, they're operating 976 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 2: within the framework of our history in this country, and 977 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,760 Speaker 2: so When we talk about the vaccine, we say, listen, 978 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 2: I get it, but these are the things that we 979 00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 2: know about vaccines. We break the vaccine down, we talk 980 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,399 Speaker 2: about the different elements of it and why they should 981 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:47,840 Speaker 2: they should feel like they can trust it. You know, 982 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 2: the creator of one of the vaccines is a black woman, 983 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 2: and we talk to her. And so these are the 984 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 2: things that we just try and arm people with. It's 985 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:58,879 Speaker 2: like the tools necessary in order to get to what 986 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 2: the facts are. And then you can decide what you 987 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 2: want to do, what you do with the facts, that's 988 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 2: up to you. But I just want you to know 989 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 2: what the facts are. You know, because what I always 990 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,240 Speaker 2: say is truth is subjective. Like your truth, my truth, 991 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 2: that person's truth. It's all your perspective. But fact it's 992 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,759 Speaker 2: the same no matter who's looking at it. Do you 993 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 2: feel that in twenty twenty five, I don't know. 994 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:25,359 Speaker 1: I feel that we've gotten to a place where we 995 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 1: are so quick to just read the headline or throw 996 00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: it into Google and then read the AI summary. I 997 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 1: mean what I like it's under It's so like and 998 00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: I just worry that the art of fundamentally, the reason 999 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 1: why I do what I do is because, like at 1000 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 1: my core, I am a nosy bitch and I want 1001 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:44,680 Speaker 1: to find out what I want to find out. So 1002 00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,240 Speaker 1: when I call you a scientist, not a nosy listen, 1003 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: I think I think it's one and the same. I 1004 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: think there's more, you know, you know, like it's like 1005 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,520 Speaker 1: because it's about yeah, but when you read something and 1006 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: you're like, huh, that's interesting, let me read more, let 1007 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: me look into that way, let me read the study. 1008 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: Oh the PI on the study, let me google them. 1009 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 1: What do we have that like you? I can only 1010 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm just a nosy bitch. Yeah, I just want to know. 1011 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 1: And I wonder like, are we losing the art of 1012 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 1: just wanting to know? Are we losing the art of 1013 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: like I worry that in twenty twenty five, it's it's 1014 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 1: so trendy to be like media literacy is dead. But 1015 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 1: I do think you can. You can, You truly can 1016 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 1: go on the internet and say anything and people will 1017 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 1: not check. People will not check. You could say anything 1018 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: and people won't say anything. 1019 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 2: Listen, I'm not gonna throw nobody under the bus, but 1020 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:34,760 Speaker 2: let me tell you there's a lot of things happening 1021 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 2: on whats that Yes, with some of these older people. 1022 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 1: That are parent age. 1023 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,719 Speaker 2: And that is I'm just like, hey, where did you 1024 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 2: find this information? Like did you did you try and 1025 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 2: do some research about it? Like they're telling you never 1026 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 2: drink ice water. 1027 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 1: Why I don't think that that's how they're like, oh, 1028 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: it'll freeze your your goot. 1029 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 2: I don't think that that's how ice water works, truly. 1030 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 2: It's just it's crazy. But I mean, yes, I do 1031 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 2: agree with you. 1032 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:05,879 Speaker 1: I think that. 1033 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 2: I think that with the way the Internet is now, 1034 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:13,279 Speaker 2: because like we're carrying it around with us constantly, it's 1035 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:18,280 Speaker 2: always right there, people are like losing their ability to wonder. 1036 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 2: Like if I say, how tall do you think? How 1037 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:30,320 Speaker 2: tall do you think Lebron James is? Somebody's just gonna go, Siri, 1038 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 2: how tall is Lebron James? Like nobody's gonna say, hm, well, 1039 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 2: he was standing next to did you hear that? 1040 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 1: Next meet nine inches? Siri? Please, I'm recording an episode 1041 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 1: with the bridget Todd Thank you. Oh my god. I 1042 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 1: didn't even mean to be talking to her. I didn't 1043 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:49,799 Speaker 1: even press the button. I guess she heard her name. 1044 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 2: But like you won't say, oh, I saw him standing 1045 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 2: next to this thing, and that's probably about this height. 1046 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 2: Nobody wonders anymore, and I think that that is part 1047 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 2: of the problem, part of the problem, and we just 1048 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,840 Speaker 2: go straight to our phones. And then because we're not wondering, 1049 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 2: we're not doing any like, we're not creating these pathways 1050 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 2: in our brain that are reinforced. So Lebron James is 1051 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 2: six foot nine. This just told me I didn't do 1052 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,400 Speaker 2: any work to get there. So that piece of information, 1053 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 2: I'm gonna forget it. 1054 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 3: Now. 1055 00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 2: If I did a lot of research and took time 1056 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:27,280 Speaker 2: and tried to figure out how tall is see exactly 1057 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 2: and do did measurements, I won't forget because that's just 1058 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:31,920 Speaker 2: how our brains are set up. 1059 00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 1: You know. 1060 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 2: There are some people who are very, very intelligent that 1061 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 2: I only have to see things one time or hear 1062 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,959 Speaker 2: things one time and they'll remember forever. But the way 1063 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 2: that the average brain works is that it needs reinforcement 1064 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 2: and in order to like, information needs reinforcement in order 1065 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 2: for it to stick. And part of that is the 1066 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 2: wondering and thinking about something for a long time, and 1067 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 2: that's what helps us to remember and to recall. So 1068 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 2: without the ability to wonder and like have curiosity and 1069 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 2: try to get to the facts, without just doing the 1070 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:07,440 Speaker 2: Google or talking to Siri. Yeah, it makes It affects 1071 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 2: your attention span, it affects your ability to remember things, 1072 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,480 Speaker 2: it affects your ability to be able to connect dots 1073 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 2: in other aspects of your life, and you know, everything 1074 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 2: becomes very very difficult. Like I mean, yeah, I'm guilty 1075 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 2: of that myself. Like I'll be like, Okay, I'm gonna 1076 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 2: go to the roasty store. It's like that sesame street 1077 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:30,520 Speaker 2: thing that stick a buttick of butter, milk, some bread, 1078 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 2: and then I get there. I'm not like that little 1079 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 2: black girl. 1080 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:36,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't get the little flash on top 1081 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: of her head that's like the butter, the milk, the bread. No, 1082 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, did I need I think I need a 1083 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 1: chicken nuggets. That's what I came out here for. 1084 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,080 Speaker 2: And then I get back home and I'm like, I 1085 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 2: did need butter and I did not get it. Like 1086 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 2: I'm guilty of it too, because I use my phone 1087 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 2: as a crutch for a lot of things. But exercising 1088 00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 2: your brain and exercising those muscles is so important to 1089 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 2: like being able to understand what we're looking at and 1090 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 2: not just reading the headlines, because when you exercise those muscles, 1091 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 2: the headline will never be enough. 1092 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: It won't be a thousand percent. And when I I mean, 1093 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 1: when I hear about young people in college who are 1094 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 1: really using chaship et to get them through college. On 1095 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 1: the one hand, I get it, because it's like, you 1096 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 1: have a million classes, you have a lot of course work. 1097 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 1: Da da da da. But I think back to when 1098 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 1: I was in college a million years ago, and it's like, 1099 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 1: I definitely had nights where if chad sheep Et existed, 1100 00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:33,480 Speaker 1: I would have totally used chaship bet to test to 1101 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 1: help me get through coursework. However, I also had nights 1102 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 1: of discovery where I learned something that turns something on 1103 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,800 Speaker 1: in my brain or ignited a curiosity in me that 1104 00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 1: I still have today years later. And you know, I 1105 00:58:48,040 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: don't think that we should be thinking about all of 1106 00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 1: this as just tasks to be offloaded or automated, because 1107 00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: that's I mean. I can't I mean, I cannot even 1108 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:03,920 Speaker 1: express how many times I would encounter something and it 1109 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 1: unlocked a lifelong passion or interest or curiosity. And we 1110 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 1: do our in our hyper connected world where we it's 1111 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 1: so easy to offload things to technology, we do have 1112 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 1: to make room for like our brain getting the tingles 1113 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 1: because we read something cool and we want to learn 1114 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: more about it, Like that stuff happens by happenstance, and 1115 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: if you are not giving yourself experience, like it's almost 1116 00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 1: a like I worry that people are robbing themselves of 1117 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:32,840 Speaker 1: the experience of that happenstance encountering something that like turns 1118 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 1: something on for you or unlock something for you. 1119 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and I totally agree, And I think 1120 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 2: that folks can do that in a chat ept or 1121 00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:46,960 Speaker 2: Claude or whatever, Gemini or copilot, whatever your AI model 1122 00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: that you want to use is because those the output. 1123 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:51,720 Speaker 1: Is only as good as the input. 1124 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 2: If you're curious and you and you can ask the 1125 00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 2: right questions and follow up questions and like you're learning 1126 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 2: as them, as the AI agent or whoever is giving 1127 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:10,440 Speaker 2: you this information, you can still discover Like chat GBT 1128 01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 2: has deep research and sometimes I'll put in there, it'll 1129 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,600 Speaker 2: spit out like a twenty page thing. Now this is 1130 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,600 Speaker 2: not something I'm copy pasting. That is something that I 1131 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 2: use to research. Like I'm reading it and I'm like, 1132 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, and I'm highlighting things. I'm like, oh, 1133 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 2: what's this source, I'll click on it, It'll take me 1134 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 2: to whatever that source is. I'll read that and I'll say, huh, 1135 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 2: well based on that, do you think that? H And 1136 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 2: what about if you were to blah blah blah blah blah, 1137 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 2: like you can still get there with AI. 1138 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: It's it's like AI is. It's like going to the library, 1139 01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:42,320 Speaker 1: but instead of having to get the little car. Did 1140 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: they still do that with the little cards and everything? 1141 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:46,280 Speaker 1: I hope? I doubt it.

But it's like 1307 01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 2: people aren't talking about it anymore, and I'm just like 1308 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 2: everybody's hyper focused on AI and which, you know, when 1309 01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 2: you think about some of the awful things that have 1310 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,400 Speaker 2: been done with some of these data centers and people, 1311 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 2: you know, losing the access to clean air and things 1312 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,599 Speaker 2: like that, Yes, but there are so many things where 1313 01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 2: we're just not there yet, and we've kind of lost 1314 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,920 Speaker 2: the plot a little bit and we've lost focus. And 1315 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 2: I think that we have to just continue to beat 1316 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:44,640 Speaker 2: the drum about doing things in a sustainable way and 1317 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 2: doing things that don't harm our environment, but also advancing 1318 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 2: ourselves because AI might be able to get us to 1319 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 2: a place where we could find alternatives to fossil fuels. 1320 01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:58,639 Speaker 2: There are scientists that are actively working to make sure 1321 01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 2: that AI is more sustainable. But I'll tell you this 1322 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,639 Speaker 2: right now, those the fossil fuel folks, I won't say 1323 01:10:04,680 --> 01:10:06,120 Speaker 2: no names, I won't be specific. 1324 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 1: They're not trying to do that. No, they're not trying 1325 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:12,120 Speaker 1: to do that. 1326 01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 2: But I know that the folks that are that are 1327 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:18,719 Speaker 2: researching and trying to get us to a better spot 1328 01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 2: when it comes to AI and its environmental costs, they're 1329 01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 2: they're absolutely taking it, taking it into consideration, and it's 1330 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:28,840 Speaker 2: gonna take some time and it's gonna take some innovation. 1331 01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:32,880 Speaker 2: But uh yeah, I think that folks really have to 1332 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 2: ask themselves other questions as well when they're thinking about 1333 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 2: the impacts. I'm like, it's not like, oh, everything is bad, 1334 01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:41,559 Speaker 2: so might as well just do it. 1335 01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 1: It's like, yes, there are some bad aspects to AI 1336 01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 1: that is bad. For the environment. Let's let's tackle that. 1337 01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:54,120 Speaker 1: And let's also not forget about fossil fuels.
