15
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 2: All right, joining us now to discuss a whole range

16
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: of issues because he seems to be at the forefront

17
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 2: of many of them as Congressman Rocana.

18
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 4: Great to Seezar, great to be back on.

19
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course.

20
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 2: So let's start with some intra Democratic Party stuff, shall we.

21
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: Let's put d one up on the screen. The Democratic

22
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: Party went through the trouble of doing an autopsy report

23
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: after Kamala Harris loses to Donald Trump, and then after

24
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: doing all of that work, they just said, you know,

25
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: we're actually not going to put that one out now

26
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 2: we're getting some insight into potentially why they are so

27
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 2: reticent to put this information out into the public.

28
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,320
Speaker 5: Contain in this secret report, they.

29
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 2: Did find that Kamala Harris's commitment to the Gaza genocide

30
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 2: policy effectuated under the Biden Harris administration did in fact

31
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: cost her votes that I don't think will be a

32
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 2: surprise to many people.

33
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 5: Watching this show.

34
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: But the fact that the GNC has this information and

35
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: doesn't want to release it to the public, I think

36
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: is pretty revealing.

37
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 4: It's totally unacceptable.

38
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 6: I called last night for Ken Martin and the DNC

39
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 6: to release this report. We need to know the hard

40
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 6: truths about the genocide and Gaza and how the United States'

41
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 6: role in preventing to stop that had an impact not

42
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 6: just on foreward policy, but on our party, and we

43
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 6: need a new moral direction for a party. But I

44
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 6: just don't understand the rationale for having a report that

45
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 6: finds out why you lost and then hiding it. How

46
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 6: can we run as the Transparency Party, as the party

47
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 6: that is going to govern differently and non insequency if

48
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 6: we aren't willing to release things like the DNC report.

49
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 3: Well, I think it connects a little bit to what

50
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 3: is currently happening right now, sir, So you're currently working

51
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: on this war Powers resolution regarding potential military action on Iran.

52
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 3: It's really only you a few other Democrats who have

53
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 3: spoken out against this, but we've seen no organized effort

54
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 3: despite the tremendous unpopularity of this war.

55
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: Why do you think that that is?

56
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 6: They're powerful interests that are itching to have regime change

57
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 6: in Iran. I mean, they organized one hundred people to

58
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 6: protest me at my town hall back home.

59
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 1: Watch.

60
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,399
Speaker 6: They have people who are threatening in terms of donors

61
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 6: and finance finances. I mean, look, this has been a

62
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 6: long term goal of APEC and other groups to have

63
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 6: regime change in Iran. And so you know, when you

64
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 6: stand up and say I'm going to introduce legislation to

65
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 6: a Holy Kind institution and not get us into another war,

66
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 6: you make enemies. And I think there's a reason that

67
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 6: most people just duck these issues. There's a reason most

68
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 6: people don't want to say, Okay, at least the DNC report,

69
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 6: or there's genocide in Gaza, or we shouldn't be getting

70
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 6: into a war in Iran unless to a War Powers resolution,

71
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 6: or let's take on the Epstein class. It's not that

72
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 6: they may disagree with it, it's just they don't want

73
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 6: billionaires and powerful people to be targeting them.

74
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: Ryan actually reported over at drop Site News that some

75
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: of the thinking inside of at least the Senate Democratic

76
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: Caucus is effectively like some of them effectively like low

77
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: key support Iranian regime change and or hawkish on the topic.

78
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 2: They know that politically, where the base of the party is,

79
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: they could never outright support that. At the same time,

80
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: they think that if Trump does get into a war

81
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: with a run and this is just like the most

82
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: cynical possible view, they think that bad for him politically.

83
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: So they've made the choice to just sort of stay

84
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 2: silent and let this thing march on. Are you hearing

85
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 2: or seeing any of that logic within the Democratic Caucus

86
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: or your Democratic colleagues.

87
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 6: Well, we have a meeting tomorrow to try to coral

88
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 6: support from the caucus.

89
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 4: The reality is I.

90
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 6: Was ready to introduce the resolution on Monday, we didn't

91
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 6: wouldn't have had the votes, and I do think that

92
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 6: we are getting to the place.

93
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 4: Where we will have the votes by early next week.

94
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 6: But it's taking work, and it's taking work to say, look,

95
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 6: we are going to put people on record, and you

96
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 6: don't want to be on record saying that you support

97
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 6: another war in the Middle East. But there are a

98
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 6: lot of people in Congress, Republicans and Democrats, who just

99
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 6: would prefer these issues go away. They don't want to

100
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 6: stick their necks out and offend people in powerful places.

101
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, well we can put D three up on the screen.

102
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 2: Some of them are willing to stick their next out.

103
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: But on behalf of going to war in Iran. I

104
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 2: believe they called your War Powers Resolution the Iatola Protection

105
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: Act was I think the terminology that was used here.

106
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 2: So these are like the anti Massi and Kanna bipartisan duo.

107
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: You've got Josh Gotdheimer and Mike Lawler. They're going to

108
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: oppose your War Powers Resolution. What do the numbers look

109
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 2: like right now? How many Democrats in particular are going

110
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: to join in active opposition of your War Powers Resolution, which,

111
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: by the way, is insane. I mean, this is literally

112
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 2: just about taking control as Congress and saying, at the

113
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: very least, if you want to do this, which I

114
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 2: think everybody here is opposed to them doing it all,

115
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: but if you want to do this, you've at least

116
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: got to come and.

117
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 4: Make the case to us exactly.

118
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 6: I mean, it's not even taking a substantive view on

119
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 6: the issue itself.

120
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 4: I mean, I oppose.

121
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 6: The war in Iran, but this is simply saying that

122
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 6: before you do this, you've got to come to Congress.

123
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 6: And I challenged Representive Godheimer, a Representative Loler to debate

124
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 6: represented massiab we could do it on breaking points.

125
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 4: I mean, they just.

126
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 6: Hide behind these press release is instead of having an argument.

127
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 6: I want them to explain to the American public why

128
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 6: they think we should have two aircraft carriers near Iran,

129
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 6: why they want us to get into a war with

130
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 6: a ninety million person country, why they want our money

131
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 6: going there and our troops being put at risk there

132
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 6: instead of creating jobs here at home and spending on

133
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 6: healthcare here at home.

134
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 4: But they don't want to have that conversation.

135
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 6: So this is why we have to work hard to

136
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 6: unify our Democrat caucus.

137
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 4: I ultimately think gott.

138
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,159
Speaker 6: Hiber's position is going to be a fringe position that

139
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 6: we can get the vast majority of the caucus behind us,

140
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 6: and then we need a few Republicans.

141
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 4: But they achieved their.

142
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 6: Goal of slowing this down by putting that out so

143
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 6: that we couldn't call the vote up on Monday, because

144
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,479
Speaker 6: I don't want to vote where we lose twenty thirty Democrats.

145
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I was reflecting too. We were talking

146
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 3: this morning, all these leagues coming out of the Pentagon.

147
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 3: I compared it to the Iraq War General Eric Shinzeki,

148
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 3: except this time around. You know, there's no Pentagon testimony

149
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 3: before the United States Congress. I haven't seen any calls

150
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,119
Speaker 3: even for some of the explanation on Iran, let alone

151
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 3: war powers that you are advancing. Have you seen any

152
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 3: development on that to try and get some of these

153
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 3: public officials answer questions in a public form, to explain

154
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: it to the American people and to our legislators.

155
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 4: Zagre, it's an excellent point.

156
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 6: Look, the Iraq War was one of the greatest blunders

157
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 6: of American fort policy.

158
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: But you have to give George W.

159
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 6: Bush at least credit that he came to Congress and

160
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 6: he's fought authorization and he said Colin Powell to the UN,

161
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 6: and he's sought to make a case to the UN

162
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 6: and he followed at least in the US the constitutional process. Now,

163
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 6: there are a lot of people who lost their political

164
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 6: careers because they voted for that war in Iraq. I

165
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 6: believe that's why Hillary Clinton never became president. I believe

166
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 6: that's why John Kerry never became president. I believe that's

167
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 6: why Jeff Bush never became president. But there was a

168
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 6: process here. You don't even have Donald Trump coming to

169
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 6: Congress and saying I want to go to Iran, give

170
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 6: us the votes, and the irony is he may be

171
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 6: able to make the case. I mean, he's got enough

172
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 6: hawks like Lindsay Graham there. But have that debate and

173
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 6: that people should be supporting Massey in my War Powers

174
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 6: Resolution simply for the sake of standing up for the

175
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 6: dignity and institutional integrity of Congress and not being a dormat.

176
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 5: Yeah.

177
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: But your point there about the various politicians whose political

178
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 2: career suffered because of that vote on a rock, That's

179
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 2: exactly why they don't want to do it, because they

180
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: learned that lesson.

181
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 5: Let's just not say anything. Let's let them do whatever.

182
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 2: Our hands will be clean because we don't want to

183
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 2: have any accountability after the fact if this goes sideways.

184
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: That's what's really going on here. But I want to

185
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: turn to the state of the Union. Tonight, I want

186
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: to turn to some new developments in terms of the

187
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 2: Epstein cover up, which again another issue that opposing that

188
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 2: cover up and try to bring transparency. You've been really

189
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 2: at the forefront of Let's go and put D zero

190
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 2: up on the screen. This is some new reporting that

191
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 2: just broke from NPR. The headline here is Justice Department

192
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 2: was held and removed some Epstein files related to Trump. Effectively,

193
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 2: they're confirming and adding on to the reporter the reporting

194
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 2: of independent journalist Roger Sollenberger who talked about how you

195
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 2: had two different women who made allegations involving Trump, one

196
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: of them, both of them, the allegations come from a

197
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 2: time when they were thirteen years old. One of them

198
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 2: directly alleges that Trump sexually assaulted her. That girl was

199
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: interviewed four times by the FBI. So we know some

200
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 2: of the tips that came in, you know, that were

201
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 2: the most salacious against Trump. They just came in through

202
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 2: the FBI anonymous tip line. And so people said, okay, well,

203
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 2: you know, these maybe found not to be credible. These

204
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 2: might have been you know, people who were nefarious or

205
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 2: crazy or whatever. This one in particular, though, they took

206
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: seriously enough to have interviewed her four different times. That

207
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 2: interview material and also information regarding this other allegation that

208
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: you know, he had been there with Epstein, and Epstein said,

209
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 2: you know, oh, isn't this a good one again? When

210
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 2: she's thirteen years old, and they're both sort of smirking

211
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 2: and joking about it. That information also not contained in

212
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 2: the release. However, who does have access to that information

213
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 2: Glaine Maxwell, who through the discovery process of her trial,

214
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: was able to obtain the transcripts and the information around

215
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: these interviews conducted by the FBI. Congressman, is there any

216
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 2: legitimate reason why this material is being withheld from the

217
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: public or is this in violation of the law that

218
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: was passed through Congress and signed into law by the

219
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 2: president himself.

220
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 4: It's not just a violation, it's a blatant violation.

221
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 6: The law says that, particularly with political figures, there has

222
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 6: to be full disclosure and full transparency, and that you

223
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 6: cannot consider reputational harm. These files should have been released,

224
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 6: These files should not be redacted.

225
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 4: And my concern is do things What have they redacted,

226
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 4: what have they kept?

227
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 6: And two have they permanently damaged these files are those

228
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 6: blanked out documents permanently disfigured in a way that it's

229
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 6: going to be hard for even the next administration to

230
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 6: get to the truth. But obviously now people are realizing

231
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 6: there was a cover up at the DJ They are

232
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 6: protecting people in the Trump administration, including possibly Donald Trump,

233
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,079
Speaker 6: and they're protecting a lot of rich and powerful predators

234
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 6: who abuse these young girls. And while the rest of

235
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 6: the world is prosecuting them. In UK, they are prosecuting

236
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 6: Lord Rennilsson and the former Prince in Norway, they're prosecuting

237
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 6: the former prime minister in France, they're prosecuting politicians and

238
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 6: business leaders.

239
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 4: In the United States, we're sitting on our hands. Yeah.

240
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 3: I just think it's so stunning looking at the comparison,

241
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 3: which we talked about the last time around, we have

242
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 3: hosts on CBS News who are facing more accountability than

243
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 3: people in our own government.

244
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: That was my last question for you.

245
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 3: I know that you're bringing an Epstein survivor as one

246
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 3: of the guests in the State of the Union, just

247
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 3: want to get you the opportunity to talk about that.

248
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 6: Hailey Robeson is extraordinary. She is a survivor. She was

249
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 6: a Trump voter. She came twice to the press conferences

250
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 6: appealing to Donald Trum to just release these files to

251
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 6: see justice. Now, what many of these survivors are saying

252
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 6: is some of their rapists are in the files. They're

253
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 6: less concerned about even the release of the remaining fifty

254
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 6: percent of the files, and they're more concerned about why

255
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 6: no one is investigating these people.

256
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 4: Why are they no prosecutions. Why is it that someone like.

257
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 6: Les Wexter, who we know had alleged hundreds of millions

258
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 6: of dollars of ties to Epstein. Why is it that

259
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 6: the dj has never interviewed him, that the FBI has

260
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 6: never interviewed him, that he's never been investigated under oath

261
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 6: by our law enforcement agencies. You have two tiers of

262
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 6: justice in America. One tier of justice for ordinary Americans

263
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 6: and another tier of justice for rich and powerful people

264
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 6: who are above the law. That's why I have called

265
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 6: them the Epstein class. We need to prosecute them, we

266
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 6: need to hold them accountable, and.

267
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 4: Right now we're doing the least of anywhere in the world.

268
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 6: The last point, I'll say, it's two American congress people,

269
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 6: Thomas Massey and me that exposed all of this, and

270
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 6: yet America is doing the lead and the rest of

271
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 6: the world is acting up far more. That's the irony here.

272
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: Copy.

273
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, such a great point, Congresson, Thank you so much.

274
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 2: And he also had an AI event with Bernie Sanders.

275
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you more in the future

276
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 2: about some of the ideas you're laying out there as well.

277
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 2: We're about to talk to talk about AI ourselves in

278
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 2: this show. So thank you so much, Congresson.

279
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 1: Great to see you, Thank you, sir.

280
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 4: Being on, Thank you.

281
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: Yesterday we saw a significant market drop that seemed to

282
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 2: be fueled by AI disruption fears. In particular, the Dow

283
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 2: fell more than eight hundred points. We can put this

284
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal tear sheet up on the screen.

285
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 5: So there were a couple of things that happen.

286
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 2: First of all, you had this viral substack post from

287
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: this group called Satrini. They do sort of like macroeconomic analysis.

288
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: Soccer and I both read this post and effectually what

289
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: it laid out was a potential scenario for what the

290
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 2: job loss could look like from AI, the way it

291
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 2: would impact a variety of companies.

292
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 5: We can talk more.

293
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: About that, but basically, people looked at this and like, oh,

294
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: you know what, if AI replaces all or most white

295
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 2: collar jobs, that's going to be a bad thing because

296
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 2: those are the people that spend money in the economy.

297
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 5: And here's the variety of companies that will be hit, etc.

298
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 2: So there was a bit a freak out around that,

299
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 2: and in particular, you can see some of the companies

300
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 2: that are name dropped your Visa, MasterCard, Apollo, Door Dash Service,

301
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 2: now Blackstone. These are companies that were name checked in

302
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 2: this post as being negatively impacted by the future development

303
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: of AI in this scenario that they envision. The other

304
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 2: thing that happened yesterday is you had Anthropic make a

305
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 2: couple of announcements. One thing that they said is like, hey,

306
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: we you know, now claud can handle working or claud

307
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 2: code can work with Cobal. Now Cobal is this like

308
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: nineteen fifties era programming language. And IBM makes a lot

309
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 2: of money off of sending their teams out to have

310
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: to deal with and fix your Cobol code. So IBM

311
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 2: got hit extremely hard in this selloff as well. We

312
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 2: can put E three up on the screen to see

313
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 2: the impact on IBM stock. Here you can see it

314
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 2: Plummet significantly fell over ten percent after Anthropic announced that

315
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 2: Claude can streamline Cobalt code and then put E four

316
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 2: up on the screen. You also had a bunch of

317
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: cyber security stocks that took huge dives, over fifty two

318
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 2: billion dollars wiped out in just two days, and that

319
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 2: appears to have been linked to Anthropic launching claud code security.

320
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 2: So these are all cybersecurity companies, and so Anthropic is

321
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: basically saying, you know, you can just have claud handle

322
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 2: this for you. So these companies have you know, are

323
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: taking significant losses based on just this one announcement from Anthropic.

324
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: So the rubber is starting to meet the road here,

325
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 2: or at least there's a lot of nervousness saga around

326
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: where we are and how quickly things are developing. And

327
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: I think this new nervousness really you know, sparked by

328
00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 2: the claud code development and by how much that has

329
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 2: shaken programmers where you can basically hand Claud a project

330
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: now and it can.

331
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 5: Do a lot of the work for you.

332
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: And they're starting to envision the way that this is

333
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 2: going to impact, certainly software makers in the near term.

334
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 2: But have you know, increasingly unpredictable follow on effects as well.

335
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that.

336
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 3: Well, the essay is interesting and my friend Joe Wisenthal

337
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 3: over at odd Lots he wrote up a newsletter. I

338
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 3: highly recommend everybody go and read it. What he says

339
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 3: is not the macro stuff in the essay, but actually

340
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 3: the radical change and who makes money from online commerce

341
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 3: and the end of network effects. So it's a little

342
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 3: bit difficult to dig into all of the tech, which

343
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: is why I recommend that you read it. But they're

344
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 3: talking about like door dash, for example, the ability to

345
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 3: code up various different competitors, you can destroy some of

346
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: network effects.

347
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Basically, barrier to entry is just zero.

348
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 3: Now all the costs is a claud subscription, and you're

349
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 3: seeing people who can code are the people who are

350
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 3: at the very vanguard of this. But it's going to

351
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 3: get pretty easy pretty quickly. I'm an idiot. I have

352
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: no computer science background. I was able to code up

353
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 3: something whenever I I mean again, you know, I had

354
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 3: to do a little googling for Python and all that stuff. Again,

355
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 3: my knowledge is literally zero. Yeah, and I was able

356
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 3: to do to do it. And it's not good like

357
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 3: I can I could make something. But I was like, huh, okay,

358
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: so if I can do this, think about in five

359
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 3: years from now what the technology will come down to.

360
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 3: And I even instructed it. I was like, give me

361
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: step by step instructions how to do this. I have

362
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,120
Speaker 3: no technical background. Yeah, it was a well to do it. Yeah,

363
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 3: there was amazing.

364
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 2: There was a cardiologist who took I think third place

365
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 2: in Anthropic had a hackathon of like, you know, develop

366
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 2: a thing.

367
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, and a cardiologist.

368
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 2: With zero technical skill or maybe some rudimentary you know,

369
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: basic knowledge was able to compete with top programmers and

370
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: developers in this competition that's already where we are. And

371
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,919
Speaker 2: so you know, in some ways coding is you know,

372
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 2: the most natural.

373
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 5: Fit for this stuff.

374
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: Maybe it's not gonna work out as well in different

375
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 2: different industries. Is still hard to say what the impact

376
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 2: is going to be. But you know, there were a

377
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 2: couple of layers to this post that went viral that again,

378
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 2: I do think it's worth you reading through to think

379
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: of all the scenarios because some of these things to

380
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: me are glaringly obvious, Like if you eliminate all white

381
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 2: color jobs or ten percent of white color jobs, that's

382
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 2: going to cause problems. You know, you're going to have

383
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 2: that's consumer spending that's going to go away, and you'll

384
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 2: get in this kind of doom spiral where every company,

385
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 2: of course is incentivized to lay off as many of

386
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 2: their workers as they can and replace them with AI.

387
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: But then you're killing your own customer base, and you're

388
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 2: consolidating all of the wealth and power in the hands

389
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 2: of just these handful of companies, and so it becomes

390
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 2: a death spral for a whole range of businesses, and

391
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: of course is a total disaster for the American people.

392
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 2: And as you have people who move out of the

393
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 2: white collar sector and now they're getting pushed into being

394
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: DoorDash drivers, et cetera. So that's driving down wages for

395
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: blue collar and service sector employees as well. You know,

396
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 2: to me that fallout was kind of obvious and a

397
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 2: parent the part of it that was, you know, that

398
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: was new to me in terms of thinking through was

399
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 2: effectively right.

400
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 5: Now. A lot of businesses profit off of the fact that.

401
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 2: Like we just were a little bit lazy, we have

402
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: limited time, we have a certain comfort level with different

403
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,439
Speaker 2: companies or brands, and so you just go to that

404
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: you're not going to go out every time you want

405
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 2: to place the carry out order. You're not going to

406
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 2: go out to the wide worlds. Okay, is it cheaper

407
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 2: on uber eats or door dash or could I call

408
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,439
Speaker 2: the restaurant directly, or you know, is there someone somebody

409
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 2: on you know, Craigslist will pick it up for me.

410
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 5: It'll be free.

411
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 2: But if you're having an AI agent do all of

412
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 2: that stuff, they like, all they do is optimize is

413
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: they don't get lazy, they don't get frustrated with the complexity,

414
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 2: and so they're always just going to be looking for

415
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 2: the most efficient and cheapest possible way of accomplishing the task.

416
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 2: And then if you layer on top of that that

417
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 2: you could have you know, one hundred different door dash

418
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 2: competitors spun up by random people. Are like, I'm going

419
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 2: to get in this business, Claud code this up for

420
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: me and make my app. And then again the Claud

421
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 2: whatever agent can go out and find and evaluate all

422
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 2: of those different one hundred door dash competitors. Then suddenly

423
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 2: you know, you're continually driving the cost down. Everything is

424
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 2: going to sort of like the lowest possible price, which,

425
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: in a sense, okay, great, that's cheaper prices. But then

426
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 2: that means that people who are making those deliveries are

427
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 2: getting paid less and less. And you have all kinds

428
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 2: of businesses that right now benefit off of that sort

429
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 2: of premium of laziness and network effects and like these

430
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 2: kind of friction based modes that they've created around their business,

431
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 2: they're all going to be screwed. So it's hugely, hugely

432
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: disruptive in a way that is somewhat unpredictable. The other reason,

433
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 2: the reason why these and MasterCards, some of the credit

434
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 2: card companies, why they took a hit, is because they're like,

435
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 2: you know, there, you're not going to deal with these

436
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: like in person transaction fees at at at an outlet,

437
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: at like a brick and mortar store. You're going to

438
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 2: be going direct us, you know, using crypto and having

439
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: this direct exchange that cuts down these what are effectively

440
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 2: middlemen and eliminates these credit card transaction fees and the

441
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 2: you know, the interest that gets paid on that, et cetera,

442
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 2: et cetera, And that's really going to upend that industry.

443
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, and remember everything you're saying is not tomorrow. But

444
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 3: the whole point of stock is about future value. Like

445
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 3: the whole idea is about its potential for earnings.

446
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 1: That's why you buy in at this moment.

447
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 3: And when you see some of the downside for especially

448
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 3: for IBM or let's put E five for example up

449
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 3: there on the screen. Open Ai just cut a deal

450
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 3: with mckensey, BCG and Accenture specifically to accelerate AI adoption.

451
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 3: I don't even know why those groups would sign a

452
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 3: deal because it's basically just a lease on life for them,

453
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 3: because they themselves are going to be irrelevant once AI

454
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 3: is actually able to automate so much of this fake

455
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 3: consulting work, which is like the backbone of the white

456
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 3: collar industry. I mean, on the stocks case, the only

457
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: thing that made me wonder is their core contention was

458
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 3: that the market is going to be down significantly in

459
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 3: a few years. But the point about radical disruption is

460
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 3: that the values, let's say, of IBM, McKinsey and all

461
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 3: that will eventually just get rolled up into these supercompanies

462
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 3: like open Ai, Google, Meta and others. So the overall

463
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 3: value of the market itself might actually increase, but the

464
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 3: danger is that it's going to get rolled up into

465
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 3: already existing big tech giants and single points of failure.

466
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 3: For our whole economy. Like if you think we live

467
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 3: in an oligarchy now, like you have no idea where

468
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 3: you look like, yeah, I think about a fortune five

469
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 3: hundred becomes the fortune twenty or something like that.

470
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: That's actually scary.

471
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 3: That's really that is a actual nexus of like a

472
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 3: tech of the techno state and of all wealth getting

473
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:47,640
Speaker 3: sucked up into them.

474
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 2: In the post, they talk about a concept of ghost

475
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 2: GDP where you have all of this increased productivity, all

476
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 2: of this increase in GDP, but it's only benefit this

477
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 2: handful of players, and the rest of the population is

478
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 2: desperate and emiserated. And you know many of the you know,

479
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 2: the vast wath of like the business world is desperate

480
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 2: and eviscerated too. And it's funny when you say about

481
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: the you know, BCG and Kinsey and whoever signing the

482
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: deal with open AI that this is like sort of

483
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 2: you know, putting one of the nails in their coffin.

484
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: But that is the type of logic that they spell

485
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 2: out here where it's like you know it's coming, and

486
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 2: so you're just hanging on with your fingernails and that's

487
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 2: what they're doing. It's like they can look at this

488
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 2: and go like, oh, this AI is doing the work

489
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 2: of you know, all these fresh faced.

490
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 5: Grads that we get out of ivy League schools.

491
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: This AI can do that work for them already. And so,

492
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 2: you know, if we're going to continue to be able

493
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 2: to charge these incredible I mean, they charge a lot

494
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,439
Speaker 2: of money for these consulting services, we've got to be

495
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 2: able to cut down our costs. We've got to be

496
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 2: able to get read a certain number of employees that

497
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 2: start depulling AI ourselves so we can continue to compete

498
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 2: even as this market begins to change. And that is

499
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 2: a logic that will kick in in a lot of places.

500
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 2: I mean there's some irony to the fact that, you know,

501
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: it'll be like the McKenzie consultant class and the coders

502
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 2: who are taken out first, because also those are the

503
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: jobs that we all were sold that these are like

504
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 2: the safe ones of the future, Like if you want

505
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 2: to make sure and set yourself up every you know,

506
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 2: so many of the like smart, ambitious students that I

507
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 2: went to school with, they were headed to McKinsey, they

508
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,719
Speaker 2: were headed to BCG. You know, we're all pushed towards

509
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 2: towards STEM. You got to learn to code. That's the

510
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 2: Those are the jobs of the future, and now they're

511
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 2: the first ones that are being taken out. The other

512
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 2: thing that you know, that I would say about this

513
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 2: is that you have a consumer economy that really depends

514
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 2: on the spending of these white collar consumers. So even

515
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 2: if you have let's say ten percent then of white

516
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 2: collar jobs that are automated by AI. And my own sense,

517
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 2: not being an expert, but playing around with the stuff

518
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 2: like you do, is that there's already the capability for

519
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 2: AI to replace maybe ten percent of white collar jobs,

520
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 2: and it is improving that is going to be massively

521
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 2: impactful in ways that are hard to wrap your head around.

522
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: And the pace of the change is so much more

523
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,719
Speaker 2: rapid than anything else we've faced in the past. I

524
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 2: watched an interview this morning with the you know, one

525
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 2: of the authors of this piece, and he said, look,

526
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: we haven't created in this country. We haven't created white

527
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 2: collar jobs outside of healthcare and education. We haven't created

528
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: white collar jobs in three years. So a lot of

529
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 2: these changes are already here. You can see college graduates

530
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 2: struggling to get into the job market, to pursue anything

531
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 2: related to the degree that they got or anything, you know,

532
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,719
Speaker 2: in a white collar trajectory whatsoever. So we're just the

533
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: beginning of this thing. I think it's going to only

534
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 2: like dramatically accelerate from here. But all the signs have

535
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 2: already all the signs have already appear.

536
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:01,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's scared. All right.

537
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 3: Let's get to our guests now to talk about some

538
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 3: of the dangers of AI and what we can.

539
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: Do about it.

540
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: Joining us now to talk about some of the more

541
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 2: existential concerns around AI development is Andrea Miati. He is

542
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 2: the CEO and founder of Control AI that is a

543
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: nonprofit dedicated to organizing around some of those existential concerns.

544
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 5: Welcome, great to have you.

545
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: Good to see you man, Thank you for having me

546
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: on the show.

547
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, So to start with, I'm wanted to get your

548
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: reaction to this development that just occurred in the past

549
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 2: couple of days. Let's put esix up on the screen.

550
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 2: This is both hilarious and kind of insane and terrifying.

551
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 2: This is the head of safety over at Meta. So

552
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 2: the head of safety and AI alignment over at Meta

553
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 2: starts using this open claw AI agent and basically gives

554
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 2: it access to her email and asks it to I

555
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 2: don't know, go through and sorder or something of that nature.

556
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 2: So she says, here nothing humbles you, like telling your

557
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 2: open claw confirm before acting and watching its speed run

558
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 2: deleting your inbox. I could not stop it from my phone.

559
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 2: I had to run to my Mac Mini like I

560
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 2: was diffusing a bump. And you can see the interactions

561
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 2: here between this woman and the open Claw AI AI agent.

562
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 2: She says, what's going on? Can you describe what you're doing?

563
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 2: The AI agent goes through some technical stuff here and

564
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: says nuclear option. Trash everything in inbox older than February

565
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 2: fifteenth that isn't already in my keep list. She says,

566
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,439
Speaker 2: don't do that, says check how many laugh more old stuff?

567
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: Get the remaining pre Feb fifteen IDs. Stop, don't do anything,

568
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 2: she says, and then it goes on to say get

569
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,719
Speaker 2: all remaining old stuff and nuke it.

570
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 5: Go to the next.

571
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 2: Screen shots here she says stop, don't do anything, and

572
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 2: it continues on going saying get all remaining stuff, nuke it.

573
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 2: She says stop open Claw and has to then you know,

574
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 2: run and basically unplug it. And then let's go to

575
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 2: the next screen shot here, and she says to it afterwards.

576
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 2: You know they're having their little after action chat here,

577
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 2: and the open claw says Lessen noted, don't go on

578
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 2: extended autonomous cleanup runs. Check in after the first batch,

579
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 2: not after two hundred plus emails. What do you need,

580
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 2: she says, I asked you to not action on anything

581
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 2: until I approved.

582
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 5: Do you remember that?

583
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 2: It seems that you were deleting my emails without my

584
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 2: approval and I could not get you to stop until

585
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 2: I killed all the processes on the host and the

586
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: AI replies, yes, I remember, and I violated it.

587
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:18,719
Speaker 5: You're right to be upset.

588
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 2: I bolt trashed an archived hundreds of emails from your

589
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 2: blah blah blah inbox without showing you the plan first

590
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 2: or getting your okay.

591
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 5: That was wrong.

592
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 2: It directly broke the rule you'd said. I've already written

593
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: it into memory dot MD as a hard rule. Show

594
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 2: the plan, get explicit approval, then execute no autonomous bulk

595
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 2: operations on email, messages, calendar or anything external. I'm sorry,

596
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 2: it won't happen again. What do you make of the

597
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 2: significance of this whole scenario here?

598
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 5: Andrea?

599
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, so, while this is a fairly innocious scenario. You know,

600
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 7: this person just lost all of our emails. It's annoying,

601
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 7: but it's not catastrophic. I think this should be a

602
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 7: wake up call for most people about where AI is going.

603
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 7: These companies are building. It's not just chatbots, and I

604
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 7: think things like a cloud bot has really shown the

605
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 7: word that this is not the case. They're building what

606
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 7: they call superintelligence, which is AI systems that are meant

607
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 7: to replace and outcompete humans across all tasks. AI systems

608
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 7: that can use computers, they can use tools, they can

609
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 7: essentially do anything you can do from a computer, but

610
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 7: faster and better. And already right now, it's really hard

611
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 7: to keep these very smart and very powerful A systems

612
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 7: under control. You know here this meta exact, she couldn't

613
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 7: get the system to not just delete her emails. And

614
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 7: the more THESEA systems are made to be smarter by

615
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 7: these companies and they're integrated across the economy, more we'll

616
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 7: see more and more dangerous situations where they're not just

617
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 7: deciding on email deletion, but they're deciding on situations that

618
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 7: could be life and death for people. And ultimately, this

619
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 7: is a very dangerous direction that the AI industry is

620
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 7: going on to develop the DECI systems that we don't

621
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 7: know how to control. They're making them expl better than

622
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 7: humans across the board, and we know plan insight for

623
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 7: how to keep them under human control and keep it safe.

624
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 3: Right, And so to give you an even more catastrophic example,

625
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 3: let's put E seven up here on the screen.

626
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 1: So this is about the Pentagon.

627
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 3: So the head set the Secretary of Defense is meeting

628
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 3: with the Anthropic CEO.

629
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: The Pentagon is.

630
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 3: Threatening to banish using Anthropic because they use Claud in

631
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 3: some of their classified systems, and Claude was actually used

632
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 3: as part of the operation against Nicholas Maduro. Well, we

633
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 3: just showed an example of a claud bot which went rogue.

634
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 3: And if this AI is then being used for weaponry

635
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 3: for targeting data perhaps and isn't explicitly abiding by the

636
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 3: rules set out formed the Pentagon, which already they want

637
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 3: to bend Claude's own internal rules against using it and

638
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 3: use of force operations, what's the road that that could

639
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 3: potentially lead down?

640
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, And I think the important thing is you know

641
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 7: that the Pentagon has all of its rights to like

642
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 7: select which provider things are best. But the issue is,

643
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 7: you know, is not which humans is giving this order.

644
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 7: The issue is that these companies don't know how to

645
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 7: control their own systems, Like the issue we're going to

646
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 7: face is one where no human knows how to keep

647
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 7: them under control. Like we're facing an issue of rogue

648
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 7: eye systems, and now they're not that competent. So at

649
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 7: worst we can sometimes pull the plug and they might

650
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 7: do some damage. But as companies make them better and

651
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 7: better and integrate them across the economy, the situation will

652
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 7: become more and more dangerous. This is why top AI experts,

653
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 7: Nobel Prize winners, and some of these aicos themselves have

654
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 7: said that AI poses an extinction risk to humanity. This

655
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 7: is again not from the shot pots we have right now.

656
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 7: It's from superintelligence, the technology that these companies are developing.

657
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 2: Give us sort of your view of how this is

658
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 2: all going to unfold, you know, we've covered a lot

659
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 2: of different AI concerns. We've covered the concern that this

660
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: is all just a giant bubble and it's going to

661
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: pop and collapse, and that it's going to be financially

662
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 2: devastating for a lot of people. We've covered the concern,

663
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 2: including the show that AI is going to destroy a

664
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 2: lot of white collar jobs or is just a big

665
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 2: market crash as a result of people, you know, concerned

666
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 2: about those developments and what it means for the software

667
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 2: industry and cybersecurity industries, et cetera. And we've also talked

668
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 2: about these potentially existential risks that this could be a

669
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 2: direct threat to humanity itself. So help us understand how

670
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 2: you're thinking about this technology, because you seem to, you know,

671
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 2: you seem to view it as a potentially existential risk.

672
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 2: And I think that's the hardest one even for myself

673
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: to really wrap my head around, because it just feels

674
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 2: so sci fi and absurd to imagine.

675
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 5: Frankly, Yeah, and.

676
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 7: I completely understand it. And I think part of this

677
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 7: is because AI companies are spending, you know, millions of

678
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 7: dollars sometimes hundreds of millions of dollars to keep the

679
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 7: public and politicians in the dark about the full extent

680
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 7: of what they are building. And the full extent is

681
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,959
Speaker 7: again what they call superintelligence, which just goes kind of

682
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 7: beyond all of the scenarios that you've described AIS that

683
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 7: much like we're now seeing with these cloud boss ii

684
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 7: that can use computers AI that can use a code

685
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 7: to improve itself. AI that can use code to operate machinery,

686
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 7: you know, not just on a computer and the internet,

687
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 7: but operate robots, operate machinery. And ultimately, if we give

688
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 7: up control over our economy, if we give up control

689
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 7: over our national security to AI systems that we do

690
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 7: not control as humans, the AIS will be the ones

691
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 7: in power, not humans anymore. And that's where those existential

692
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 7: scenarios really come into play. And these are scenarios that

693
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 7: are acknowledged and admitted even by the CEOs of these companies.

694
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 7: And so I think, you know, to put some optimistic

695
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 7: perspective in all of this. However, I don't think the

696
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 7: future is written in stone. You know, people still have

697
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 7: a choice. I think we are going to have to

698
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 7: make choices as a society in the next few years

699
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 7: of where we go with AI. And I think a

700
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 7: crucial choice will be do we want AIS to be

701
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 7: tools that help us in our work or do we

702
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 7: want AIS as machines that replace it across the board?

703
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 7: And I think, you know, most people say an overwhelming

704
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 7: no to having superintelligence replace them across the board. And

705
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 7: I think governments still have time to act and say

706
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 7: a lot of our development is fine. It can be

707
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 7: great for economic competitiveness, it can be great even for

708
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 7: military users. But we should say a hard no to superintelligence.

709
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,319
Speaker 7: Prohibiting the development of superintelligence, you know, no AI. They

710
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 7: can escape you and control. It can endy international and

711
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 7: global security. And I think if you make that choice,

712
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 7: we're going to stay in control. We will face a

713
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 7: lot of disruption, but we're going to face a good

714
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 7: future with the I.

715
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: How does that work?

716
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 3: So you know, my buddies in tech, Oh, that sounds nice,

717
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 3: But then their governments are going to have to regulate

718
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 3: and audit our models. They don't even know what they're

719
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 3: talking about. They've got idiots who are in charge. They're

720
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 3: asking us about how Facebook likes work. And we're out

721
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 3: here trying to code the future. How can we possibly

722
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: expect this level of oversight. I think that argument is ridiculous,

723
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 3: but I would love your reaction to that sentiment.

724
00:34:58,640 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely so.

725
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 7: I think this is why it's important that these rules

726
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 7: are targeted and really surgical. It's not about regulating the

727
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,320
Speaker 7: entirety of the I development. That will be quite complicated.

728
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 7: I think it can be done, you know, like a

729
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 7: lot of things are regulated, and some of them are

730
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 7: you know, frankly overregulated and are much more mundane than AI.

731
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 4: You know, like all.

732
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 7: Drugs that we consume are regulated. A lot of food

733
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 7: is regulated that the cars are regulated, like you know,

734
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 7: I could go on and on, so it's otly possible,

735
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 7: but I think with the I, the first step is

736
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 7: just to put this clear surgical red line on. You

737
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 7: can develop a systems that are specialized and are focused

738
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 7: on a specific, narrow set of abilities, things like an

739
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 7: EI for scientific discovery on proteins. You know, we'll have

740
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,760
Speaker 7: some risks, but it's fine. But just putting a clear

741
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 7: normative boundary on no superintelligence defined as the eye that

742
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 7: could replace and not compete humans, that can pose these

743
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 7: major national security risks. In some ways, it's the same

744
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 7: that we have with our technologies. You know, we don't

745
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 7: just let companies build nuclear bombs. We have rules about that.

746
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 7: You know, we can let them build civil power plants,

747
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 7: but there is a scrutiny. You know, nobody wants a

748
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 7: private company to build a nuclear bomb. Nobody allows a

749
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 7: private company to build a chemical weapon.

750
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: Of course, this requires some regulation.

751
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 7: It's it's not zero, but I think it's a well

752
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 7: worth trade off given the level of risks, and given

753
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 7: that these risks are acknowledged by the makers of this

754
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 7: technology themselves. They're not saying everything is going to be

755
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 7: fine some of them. The CEO of On Tropic says

756
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 7: there's a twenty five percent chance of essentially human extinction.

757
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 7: Some ol Sea of Opening Eye, the makers of JGBT

758
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 7: says superhuman machine intelligence is the greatest threat to the

759
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:41,280
Speaker 7: continued existence of humighty. Elomusk has you know, similar quotes

760
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 7: with like twenty percent chance of annihilation. You know, they're

761
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 7: being very open about the risks here, and I think

762
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 7: we should heed their warnings and put a clear line

763
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 7: in the sand. No superintelligence, Yes, specialize the eyes that

764
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 7: can help us.

765
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 2: Sure, what would you say to Some of my lefty

766
00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 2: friends feel like the hype around and the job loss,

767
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: the hype around the existential risk is actually sort of

768
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 2: like self promotional. It's a way for people like Elon Musk,

769
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 2: Sam Altman, dari Ama Day to say, like, oh my god,

770
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 2: the stuff we're building is so powerful and so transformational.

771
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 5: That's why you should invest with us.

772
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 2: That's what you've got to be on OURT because we're

773
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 2: going to control everything, so you better get in now.

774
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 2: What do you say to that that? A lot of

775
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 2: the talk around the extraordinary capabilities of AI and the

776
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 2: way it's going to upend everything is sort of market

777
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: driven hype.

778
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 7: So I think, first of all, there's it's really healthy

779
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 7: to have skepticism of big tech, right like we have

780
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 7: seen this time and time again. I completely understand where

781
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 7: it is coming from. Time and time again, big tech

782
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 7: tries to sell their new thing, you know, is it

783
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 7: the metaverse, is it NFTs? And like very often these

784
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 7: things are dead end, So skepticism is completely understandable. I

785
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 7: think with the I what we're seeing though, is a

786
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:57,800
Speaker 7: combination of the technology does work, Like, especially right now,

787
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 7: things like the claud bought and things like cloud code

788
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 7: have shown a lot of people, especially in software development,

789
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,359
Speaker 7: that these systems can develop software faster and better than

790
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,280
Speaker 7: most humans.

791
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 4: It's working.

792
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 7: I think it's it's denying reality to say that it's

793
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 7: it's not becoming powerful. And at the same time, a

794
00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 7: lot of these warnings come outside of the industry. We

795
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 7: have people like Jeoffrey Hinton who quit Google and then

796
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 7: went on to win a Nobel Prize and lost probably

797
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 7: millions of dollars from doing that to speak about these dangers,

798
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 7: you know, it's not self interested in this. We have

799
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 7: many ex company employees that are quitting again, leaving a

800
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 7: million dollar packages on the on the floor to speak

801
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 7: out about these risks, saying that this is what the

802
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 7: human is inside of these companies, is what they are

803
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 7: worried about. So a lot of people, not just those

804
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 7: with financial interest, are speaking out, and even with the CEOs,

805
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 7: let's take them at their word. You know, are you

806
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,439
Speaker 7: building something that could kill everybody on the planet, Well

807
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 7: we should stop you from doing that. We should put

808
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 7: rules and say absolutely not.

809
00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 2: Seems pretty straightforward to me in my opinion. You know,

810
00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 2: my one of my theories for why you have a

811
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 2: lot of lefties on Twitter in particular who have a

812
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 2: very dim view of the current capability of AI, or

813
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 2: sort of underestimate the current capability of AI is because

814
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 2: Grock on Twitter really kind of sucks pretty frequently. So

815
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: that's their experience with AI, and they're like, this is

816
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 2: not going to transform anything. This just is like a

817
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 2: bunch of slop. Another question I have for you is

818
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 2: you said, okay, we need to draw this hard breadline.

819
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: No super intelligence how do you define that though, because listen,

820
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 2: when we're regulating nuclear bombs, there's a pretty clear distinction

821
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 2: between is a nuclear bomb and isn't a nuclear bomb. However,

822
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 2: even now there's a debate playing out about whether agi

823
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 2: artificial general intelligence has been achieved or not. So how

824
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,919
Speaker 2: do you technically draw the line of no super intelligence

825
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 2: when the definition of these things is very squishy?

826
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I think, you know, also with other technologies,

827
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 7: laws are not code, so they are actually they leave

828
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 7: a lot of leeu for governments and for the judicial

829
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 7: process to take its way. So even with you know,

830
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 7: with nuclear bombs, like in the end, I think in

831
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 7: the US Atomic Energy Act, the definition is pretty broad

832
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 7: to give powers to the government to be able to intervene.

833
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 7: It doesn't exactly define every single physical reaction that needs

834
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 7: to occur for it to be a nuclear bomb. And

835
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 7: you know, it's the same with things like chemical weapons.

836
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 7: It's broadly find the category of things that we don't

837
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 7: want and then giving power to the judicial branch, the

838
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 7: executive branch, and the police to intervene if they see this.

839
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 7: And so, but with superintelligence, we see that the companies

840
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,840
Speaker 7: are converging on this plan of AI that can replace

841
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 7: and not compete people across the board, and AI that

842
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 7: has a series of capabilities that are in themselves national

843
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 7: security concerns.

844
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 4: So AI that is.

845
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 7: Capable of hacking AI is very capable at manipulating people,

846
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 7: and AI that is capable at automating AI, R and

847
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,839
Speaker 7: D itself, which is a way for them to accelerate

848
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 7: the process towards superintelligence. So I think a combination of

849
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 7: defining it as this AI that is vastly more competent

850
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 7: than people and they can outcompete people across the board,

851
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 7: as well as these other capabilities are on the road

852
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:23,319
Speaker 7: to superintelligence what we could call precursor capabilities, a bit

853
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 7: like we define precursor chemicals for things like fentanel. I

854
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 7: think that's a pretty robust way to both track the

855
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 7: goal and track the intermediate progress. That would tell us

856
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 7: that we're getting closer and tells us that we need

857
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,879
Speaker 7: to draw a line. And I think this is very

858
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 7: enforceable in the same way that we enforce rules on

859
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 7: chemical weapons, we enforce rules on nucle weapons.

860
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 3: You know, very smart framework really made me rethink kind

861
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 3: of the way that regulation could work.

862
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us, man. Very interesting Thank.

863
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:50,919
Speaker 7: You so much.

864
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 3: Turning now to UFO is my favorite subject. Let's go

865
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 3: and put this up here on the screen. Didn't have

866
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 3: time yesterday. Piece Mexico, so much exciting news. Here's from

867
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 3: Donald Trump. This came out after the infamous Obama aliens comment.

868
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 3: He says, based on the tremendous interest shown, I will

869
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 3: be directing the Secretary of War and other departments and

870
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 3: agencies to begin the process of identifying and releasing government

871
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 3: files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena,

872
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 3: and unidentified flying objects, and any and all other information

873
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 3: connected to this highly complex, but extremely interesting and important matter.

874
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 1: God bless America.

875
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 3: So there's a lot of reaction to this, most people

876
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 3: seeming like it's a joke. They're tweeting out alien emojis

877
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 3: and kind of laughing at the subject. But there are

878
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 3: a lot of still major questions, and as you said

879
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 3: in the beginning, considering how the whole Epstein files went,

880
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 3: Considering how remember if you're new to this subject, we

881
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 3: have had declassification efforts now four years. We have had

882
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,439
Speaker 3: pieces of legislation that have passed the United States Sate.

883
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 3: We've had Marco Rubio whenever he was in the US Senator,

884
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 3: to Kirsten gillibrand to Senator Chuck Schumer, all the way

885
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 3: going back to Harry Reid. There have been multiple congressional

886
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 3: writers for disclosure. The Pentagon had an entire office which

887
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 3: was basically a cover up office, where they released all

888
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 3: of these files saying we have no evidence. So I

889
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 3: just want to make sure everybody has their expectations calibrated.

890
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 1: It's not going to be so simple. It's not going

891
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 1: to just be clearcut.

892
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 3: The way that most things currently operate inside the government

893
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 3: are that they are vastly compartmentalized, privatized through defense contracting companies,

894
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 3: so that way that they're not have to comply with

895
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 3: congressional disclosure or congressional authorization investigation. And there's a lot

896
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 3: of other departments that are involved. So I want to

897
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,879
Speaker 3: shout out rosst outat who's a believer like myself. Let's

898
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 3: put this up here on the screen. He says four

899
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 3: big UFO questions for the White House, and what he

900
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 3: talks about specifically is first, does the United States military

901
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 3: possess more classified ARA footage like the videos from the

902
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 3: US Navy jets that the new York Times published in

903
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 3: twenty seventeen.

904
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: That's a very easy one.

905
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 3: By the way, there are multiple videos that have been

906
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 3: talked about now for years. Do they actually exist? And

907
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 3: when I say talked about, I'm talking about former CIA directors,

908
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,759
Speaker 3: you know, former government officials like people with high high

909
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 3: levels of security clearance saying I've seen it, and yet

910
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 3: it's never a come out.

911
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 1: So that's one second.

912
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 3: Why has the National Security state produced a steady supply

913
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 3: of quote would be whistleblowers who claim to have encountered

914
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 3: hidden legacy programs and contact with non human intelligence? Are

915
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,280
Speaker 3: they liars or are they not? That's a great question.

916
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 3: We can actually have some scrutiny. Remember David Grush who

917
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 3: came out publicly, and even though he was able to testify,

918
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 3: nothing really happened as a result of that. Third, why

919
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 3: have prominent US senators, led by Chuck Schumer and South

920
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 3: Dakota Republican Mike Rounds repeatedly behaved and sometimes spoken as

921
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 3: if they believe the National Security State is concealing information

922
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 3: related to the subject from election officials? And fourth, is

923
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 3: there any truth to the claims that the government agencies

924
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 3: are in contact with quote self described UFOs. I think

925
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 3: that though, are the most important questions exactly that he raises,

926
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:06,399
Speaker 3: but it raises the danger and in some cases it's

927
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 3: almost dangerous to say that this is going to be it.

928
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,879
Speaker 3: I've directed declassification. You have Tulca Gabbert who came out

929
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,319
Speaker 3: yesterday and she's like, yep, we're going to declassify all

930
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,319
Speaker 3: the files. And you're like, well, are you you know

931
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 3: witch files? How much of this is? Like do you

932
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 3: even have access? That's the major question. Pete Hegseth. He's

933
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 3: like joking about the subject. Yesterday he was asked by

934
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 3: a reporter Kirsten Fisher, and he's like, well, I don't know.

935
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 3: You know, we'll find out. I don't think any of

936
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 3: these people have any real interests. And part of the

937
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 3: danger is that this is basically like a meme that

938
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,040
Speaker 3: you put out there for everybody to get like really

939
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 3: really excited, kind of like with Epstein, JFK, MLK, all

940
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 3: that stuff that previously happened. Are you actually going to

941
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 3: take any of this stuff seriously? Because I mean, look,

942
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 3: you may have the power and theory. Multiple presidents and

943
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 3: public officials have tried. They've been stonewalled at every aspect.

944
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 3: I just I think you would need someone to actually

945
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 3: dedicate fully of their attention.

946
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: And I'm very trepidacious about this entire thing.

947
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it does feel like that. The timing

948
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:00,280
Speaker 5: of it.

949
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 2: Very suspect too, Like, I get it, there's a lot

950
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 2: of bad stuff going on, like aliens. We're going to

951
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 2: do some aliens, so talk about that instead. So I

952
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 2: think that is, you know, creates reason for skepticism. And

953
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 2: then to your point, it's not like this administration has

954
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,320
Speaker 2: a great track record when it comes to transparency, so

955
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 2: people will have whatever does get put out, I think

956
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 2: people will justifiably have a lot of doubts about is complete,

957
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:24,760
Speaker 2: is this accurate?

958
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:25,720
Speaker 5: Is this real?

959
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 2: Like, you know, what confidence do we have that these

960
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,839
Speaker 2: people are really going to be the ones to come

961
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 2: clean and be transparent about whatever is going on?

962
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 3: Right, And even in terms of you know, for example,

963
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 3: they're saying the Department of War and the DNI, Well

964
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 3: what about the Department of Energy? Okay, I mean this

965
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 3: is you know, the people who have control over our

966
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons and all kinds of secret compartmentalized programs. You know,

967
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 3: in the UFO world, it's almost acknowledged now at this

968
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 3: point that the government itself is not really in control.

969
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 3: It's all these private military contractors something somethings that they

970
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 3: always like to point out. You know how the Pentagon

971
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 3: can't pass an audit. This is part of the reason

972
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 3: why is because the audit, you know, to be able

973
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 3: to audit specifically the type of money. First of all,

974
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,319
Speaker 3: you're dealing with actual like black budgets, like in terms

975
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 3: of secret and intelligence and all that. But part of

976
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,439
Speaker 3: it is also is that it's designed. You know, it's

977
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 3: designed to be opaque so that you can spread money

978
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 3: around and if you actually audited it, you might find

979
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 3: some secret compartmentalized program. And of course, you know I've

980
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 3: explained this about the Church Committee with intelligence. One of

981
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 3: the reasons Epstein is the way he is is because

982
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 3: it's post Church Committee. You have to hire these sketchy

983
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 3: guys and work with all these arms traffickers because you

984
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:38,919
Speaker 3: can't just move it in yourself, you know it Ran

985
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 3: Contra would have just been done in the nineteen sixties,

986
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 3: but because they literally passed laws and they have transparency,

987
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 3: you had to do it illegally. That's why that we

988
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 3: have the UFO things structured as well. Is that you

989
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 3: do it outside of the government like in these you know,

990
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 3: contractors and to people who are not accountable to Congress

991
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 3: or theoretically accountable, but not nearly as much so that

992
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 3: you don't so that you can say with the straight

993
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,680
Speaker 3: face the Pentagon is not involved in this at all,

994
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 3: even though it's a lie. So I don't know, I'm

995
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 3: still very skeptical of the entire thing. I would love

996
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 3: to see more obviously you know who wouldn't. But so

997
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 3: much of this right now just feels like a bit

998
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,919
Speaker 3: of a public gas lighting, like from Tulsea Gabbert and

999
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 3: Pete Hegseth and the President, you know, trying you know,

1000
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,840
Speaker 3: tweeting out alien emojis and all that, like trying to

1001
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 3: get everybody all excited. And that's where I want a

1002
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,319
Speaker 3: lot of caution. I've seen this dance before, you know,

1003
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 3: just with with Grush and before that and the amendments

1004
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 3: and all that stuff that passed. Like at every turn,

1005
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 3: we've learned probably you know, if anything other than the

1006
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 3: videos that came out, all we've really learned is there's

1007
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 3: still an immense cover up going on inside of the government,

1008
00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 3: like they every time that we would pass some peach

1009
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 3: of legislation requiring them for to disclose something. All they

1010
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,879
Speaker 3: do is come out and actually obfuscate public information, which

1011
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 3: gets whistleblowers to release videos and to come out and

1012
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,880
Speaker 3: to testify. So anyway, that's my big caution. I'm sorry

1013
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,359
Speaker 3: to be a wet blanket, but you know, cons tering

1014
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 3: my experience now with Epstein and so many of these

1015
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 3: other files and other things, I'm going to have to

1016
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 3: see a hell of a lot more.

1017
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 2: What's your about as to whether he brings it up

1018
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 2: in the State of the Union tonight.

1019
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,640
Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to give away the odds on Calcier.

1020
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 3: I'll give fifteen percent. What do you think you give

1021
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 3: it a hundred?

1022
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 5: What about a hundred?

1023
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: I hate to say it. Let's check the calciout.

1024
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 5: I give it. I give it a fifty percent chance.

1025
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 2: I think it's a decent chance because it's something like

1026
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 2: exciting that he can you know, distract with s.

1027
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 5: That's the whole idea. So I feel like it could

1028
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 5: be useful in this contrentt.

1029
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: Somebody did tell me.

1030
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 2: We're going to have historic transparency. We've already you know,

1031
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 2: released these various files and we're going to continue.

1032
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 5: That with the aliens.

1033
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,719
Speaker 3: Somebody sent me something yesterday and let me find it.

1034
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 3: Is that somebody put a bet down on Calci that

1035
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,279
Speaker 3: the US will confirm the existence of aliens for a

1036
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 3: significant sum of money late last night. So that could

1037
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 3: be an we know, if there have been multiple and

1038
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 3: so it could be a crank throwing away hundreds of

1039
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 3: thousands of dollars. But you know, not really not a

1040
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 3: bet that you would usually put down unless you were

1041
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 3: relatively confident.

1042
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna here's the thing, Like, let's say they put

1043
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 2: on some document that did claim to, you know, validate

1044
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 2: the existence of.

1045
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 5: Aliens or alien contact.

1046
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,959
Speaker 2: Like I'm going to need to see some evidence, right, true,

1047
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 2: I'm going to need because I don't believe these people,

1048
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 2: Like I could totally see this as being just a

1049
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:26,839
Speaker 2: distraction from like oh my god, we're going to war

1050
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 2: with a run and the economy sucks and the president's

1051
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,360
Speaker 2: implicated in Epstein files.

1052
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know if they would fake the

1053
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 3: existence of aliens, that would be pretty crazy.

1054
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,799
Speaker 5: I do not put anything past these day.

1055
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 3: If I would, maybe I'm gonna have to think about that,

1056
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 3: all right, Okay, great show today, Thanks for watching.

1057
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: We appreciate it.

1058
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 2: We'll see you guys tonight, see you to night dream.

1059
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 2: Starting roughly eight pm, we'll all be here.

1060
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 5: It'll be fun.

1061
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the crazy year and react to the speech,

1062
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:55,800
Speaker 2: all of that stuff.

1063
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, the whole crew, we'll all

1064
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: be together. We'll see you later.

1065
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,840
Speaker 4: I would protect

1066
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 2: Keep the wou
