1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,200 Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Jettie I know he Armstrong and Yetty. 4 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 3: And the UK announced that it will recognize the state 5 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 3: of Palestine unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire by September 6 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 3: and improves the situation in Gaza. President Trump said the 7 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 3: UK's move would be rewarding Hamas. 8 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, well so McCrone last week said France will recognized 9 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 4: Palestine as a state. 10 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: Whatever that means. 11 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 5: That's no recognized government nor set borders, So what the 12 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 5: hell does that mean? 13 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 4: Pretty major break since the all of our friends had 14 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 4: stuck with us all these years on not recognizing Palestine 15 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 4: as a state, even though all the other countries in 16 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 4: the UN have recognized Palestine as state for decades. But, 17 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 4: as Trump responded to Macron, it doesn't make any difference. 18 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 4: This is going to have no effect, Trump said, which 19 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 4: is probably two but directionally it's not good. But now 20 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 4: Great Britain has done it, but with a qualification. 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. 22 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 5: Kiers Starmer, the UK Prime Minister, spoke with the bb 23 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 5: NET Yaho for a couple hours in which net Yahu 24 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 5: was said to have rejected the conditions set by Starmer 25 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 5: for a cease fire, which included Israel ruling out future 26 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 5: annexation of the West Bank in a commitment toward a 27 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 5: two state solution with quote unquote Palestine. And you know, 28 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 5: a number of people, including me, responded with, wait a minute, 29 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 5: Wait a minute, wait a minute. You just said, if 30 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 5: you don't capitulate to Hamas's demands, we will recognize Palestine, 31 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 5: and Israel's put in a position of where's our motivation 32 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 5: here exactly? And if the Hama knows that a non piece, 33 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 5: the non reaching of a peace agreement means you recognize 34 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 5: their country quote unquote, whatever that means, they'll never come 35 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 5: to a peace agreement. You've removed every incentive for Hamas 36 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 5: to come to any sort of agreement, even though Israel 37 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 5: doesn't really want one anyway. 38 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 4: With Hamas, first of all, I think it should be 39 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 4: an international law that the name of your leader sounds 40 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: like they're from your country. The leader of Great Britain, 41 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 4: care Starmer, shouldn't sound like he's the leader of Germany. 42 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 4: That's just no good. The leader of Great Britain needs 43 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 4: to be named you know, Winston, heichel Mheugh, Winston, Hufflepuffle 44 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 4: or something. I mean, it's got to be a British name, 45 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 4: so that I don't like that to start with. But 46 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 4: this seems so obvious to me that I feel like, 47 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: is there something missing? You just said to Hamas that 48 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 4: if you you don't agree to a seaspier deal, we'll 49 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 4: give you what you've been wanting forever. 50 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: Okay, right in essence? 51 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you mentioned Emmanuel Macron's recognizing again a Palestinian state, 52 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 5: whatever that means. And Gearrett Wilders of the Netherlands, whose 53 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 5: name is very, very familiar to anybody who's been concerned 54 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 5: about Islamism, islama fascism around the country and particularly in Europe, 55 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 5: widespread unchecked migration of Muslims into European cities and towns 56 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 5: and changing their very culture. And he now he has 57 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 5: gone from a pariah in the Netherlands to. 58 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: I believe, let's. 59 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 5: See, I just read about he had a landslide electoral 60 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 5: victory a year and a half ago, winning almost forty 61 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 5: of one hundred and fifty parliamentary seats in what was 62 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 5: described as one of the most significant political upheavals in 63 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 5: the Netherlands since World War Two. So the so called 64 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 5: anti immigrant, which is just anti our country becoming something 65 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 5: completely different than it's ever been, has gone from the 66 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 5: fringes in Europe to the very much in the mainstream. 67 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 5: Not surprisingly so anyway, that's who Wilders is if you 68 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 5: don't know his act. But anyway, he responded to the 69 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 5: Macrone decision online on a tweet featuring a map of 70 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 5: southern France along with the sardonic suggestion that the region 71 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 5: could serve as the new Palestinian homeland. Here will be 72 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,239 Speaker 5: the new Palestinian state. Big parts of France or Islamic anyway, 73 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 5: the Netherlands will close its borders immediately. Happy suicide. Then 74 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 5: he gets. Then he went, you know, with a much 75 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 5: more cerebral post, stating France rewards the Islamic terrorists of 76 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 5: Hamas for their October seventh massacre by recognizing the Palestinian state. 77 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 5: The Netherlands must never do that. Moreover, there's already a 78 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 5: Palestinian state that we have recognized, and that is Jordan. 79 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 5: Jordan equals Palestine, and that's been central to his approach 80 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 5: since his rise to prominence many years ago. 81 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: He points out that. 82 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 5: Jordan was created from seventy seven percent of the original 83 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 5: British mandate for quote unquote Palestine, which the British named 84 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 5: after the old Roman name for that part of the world, 85 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 5: which the Romans name that because the Philistines. It's a 86 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 5: bastardization of Philistines essentially, or Philistines who are kind of 87 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 5: the dominant sect at that point when the Romans came 88 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 5: into that part of the world. That is an imprecise 89 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 5: and sloppy description of what happened, but it's closely. 90 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: Two thousand years ago, Yeah, exactly. 91 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 5: So Jordan was created from seventy to seven percent of 92 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 5: the original British fairly, you know, arbitrary lines that they drew, 93 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 5: and a majority of its population is ethnically Palestinian or 94 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 5: the people, the non Jewish people from that part of 95 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 5: the world. Many fled or were expelled during the nineteen 96 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 5: forty eight Arab Israeli War in the nineteen sixty seven 97 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 5: Six Day War, with Jordan being the only Arab country 98 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 5: to fully integrate Palestinian refugees. In both of those wars, 99 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 5: Israel was attacked by Muslims by Arabs that attempted to 100 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 5: remove it from the map, and a lot of Arabs 101 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 5: fled during the fighting because they were convinced that the 102 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 5: Muslims would win, the Jews would be ejected, and they 103 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,559 Speaker 5: could just take over the whole country. But Israel said 104 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 5: to a lot of them, no, you don't get to 105 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 5: come back in anyway. So Wilders is making the argument 106 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 5: that there's already Palestinian homeland, there are Arab Muslim lands 107 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 5: surrounding Israel, and that's the place. 108 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: To be, not taking over Israel anyway. I thought that 109 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 2: was interesting. A couple of what. 110 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 4: Do you think Starmar, the Prime Minister of Great Britain 111 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 4: is up to with this? What do you think his 112 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 4: angle is? Like I said, I feel like there's something 113 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 4: missing here. 114 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 5: Here's a quiz for everybody. At the basis of all 115 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 5: foreign policy is what domestic politics. And Starmer and Britain 116 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 5: have a serious challenge with a large Muslim minority, large 117 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 5: extremely vocal and activist Muslim minority that has a set 118 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 5: of beliefs about what Britain ought to be in the 119 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 5: world that are very, very different than what Britain has 120 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 5: ever been. They have a completely different worldview than the 121 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 5: West has traditionally had. I think he's under enormous pressure 122 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 5: from his left flank because the Muslims in Britain are 123 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 5: heavily lefty, I mean like very, very very heavily lefty, 124 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 5: and so he like the you know, you remember Biden Harris, 125 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 5: how they were bending over backward. As it turns out, 126 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 5: wildly out of proportion of the threat to please the 127 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 5: Muslim voters in say ham Tramick, Michigan. 128 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 2: In Patterson, New Jersey, turned out it was way overblown. 129 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 5: Starmar's feeling that he also might be looking at the death, 130 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 5: the horror and the starvation in Gaza and thinking it's 131 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 5: got to end, and in a Barack Obama style way, 132 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 5: thinking surely we can come. 133 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 2: We'll get our. 134 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 5: Smartest people around the table, and we'll convince Israel and 135 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 5: Hamas to live side by side, and we'll try again 136 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 5: to get Hamas to lay down their arms and just 137 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 5: be a governing body. Let's try it again, because this 138 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 5: is too much death and horror. It's not a bad impulse. 139 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 5: I just think it's naive. 140 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 4: I'm not sure Hamas wants a Palestinian state. I mean 141 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 4: they want a Palestinian state that doesn't include Israel existing right, 142 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 4: but a Palestinian a Palestinian state next to Israel would 143 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 4: not stop Amaas from doing what they're doing. 144 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 5: No, and that's why, And that's my main point in 145 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 5: bringing this up. And my preliminaries have exhausted most of 146 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 5: the time, as I often do. There is no math 147 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 5: that you can do that leads to a settlement between 148 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 5: Israel and quote unquote the Palestinians that leaves Hamas intact. 149 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 2: The math doesn't work, it will not happen. 150 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 4: That's why I was surprised by all the talk I 151 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 4: was hearing yesterday from a variety of quarters about how 152 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 4: Israel have satisfied their military objectives? What are they doing 153 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 4: now other than committing genocide? How have they satisfied their 154 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 4: military objectives? Hamas utterly false? 155 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, Anyway, more on that in a moment or two, 156 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 5: after a word from our friends at Trust and Will. 157 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 5: You can get security and peace of mind by making 158 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 5: an estate plan.

Get twenty percent off Trust and Will dot 179 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 5: com slash armstrong. So what I wanted to go into 180 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 5: is two things. Number One, a couple of folks in 181 00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 5: the Wall Street Journal why Israel and Hamas won't stop fighting, 182 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 5: And they go into the horror of it, which is undeniable, 183 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 5: and it's terrible, it's terrible human suffering. But the main 184 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 5: point of the piece is the strategic goals of the 185 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 5: warring parties seem nearly unbridgable. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Nutt 186 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 5: Yahoo is seeking the complete surrender or elimination of Hamas 187 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 5: Because Hamas, that was behind the slaughter of October seventh, 188 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 5: pretended to be a peace loving governmental organization, as their 189 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 5: internal documents have revealed, for the express purpose of luring 190 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 5: the Jews into letting their guard down. That will never 191 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 5: ever happen again. And the one thing Hamas will not 192 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 5: give up, despite the loss of its senior leadership and 193 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 5: fighting capabilities and the suffering of the people in Gaza, 194 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 5: they will not give up its existence as an armed 195 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 5: group fighting Israel. Until one gives in, the war is 196 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 5: likely to grind on. That is the best smartest writing 197 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 5: I've read about this in a long time. 198 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, not super brilliant, though, I mean that's it's obvious 199 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 4: to me. It seems obviously the problem. 200 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 5: Well, and back to Jack's point just before the commercial, 201 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 5: And I don't revel in this. I'm not a hack 202 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 5: for Israel. I'm just doing geopolitical math. Hamas wants to 203 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 5: wipe all Jews off the face of the earth, starting 204 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 5: with the Israelis the humiliation of Jews occupying what they 205 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 5: see as legitimate Muslim lands. You do not get because 206 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 5: you're not a radical Muslim. The Palestinian people quote unquote, 207 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 5: and the idea of a Palestinian state is a pr 208 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 5: tool they use, and that's it. That's not their goal. 209 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 5: If they can achieve their goal, which I just described, 210 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 5: and I defy anybody to in a reasonable way contradict me, 211 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 5: the people of Gaza have nothing to do with their 212 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 5: ultimate goal except as a tool. People don't understand religious 213 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 5: slash political fanaticism. They think it can't be they think 214 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 5: it's got to be overrated. At their heart, they've just 215 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 5: got to want to have good lives for their people 216 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 5: and peace. They've just been oppressed. That's the only reason 217 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 5: they're mad. You are a fool. Well, no, I'm sorry, 218 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 5: you've been misinformed. 219 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 4: If you're a college kid and you care about the 220 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 4: Palestinian people, you know there's something you don't have in 221 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 4: common with Hamas. 222 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: They don't care if ten Palestinian kids die today. In fact, 223 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 2: they good news. How do we get this into the media. 224 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 5: As was said a long time ago by a learned observer, 225 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 5: the only thing the radical Islamists like better than a 226 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 5: dead Jewish child is a dead Palestinian child, because it's 227 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 5: much more useful propaganda wise, they can't win with guns. 228 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 5: They cannot win by force. They can win through horror 229 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 5: and propaganda. 230 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 4: Co parenting with chat GPT becoming a thing. Got admit, 231 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: I've done it myself. I don't know if I should 232 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 4: be embarrassed or not. 233 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 2: That and other stuff on the way. Stay here. 234 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 4: He's got curly hair and go T Now he wears 235 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 4: a T shirt. He's cooler. It's Mark Zuckerberg who runs Facebook. 236 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 4: Here's his view of the future. 237 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 6: AI keeps accelerating, and over the past few months we've 238 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 6: begun to see glimpses of AI systems improving themselves. So 239 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 6: developing superintelligence is now in sight. 240 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: But there's this. 241 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 6: Big open question about what we should direct superintelligence towards. 242 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 6: A lot has been written about the scientific and economic 243 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 6: advances that AI can bring, and I'm really optimistic about this. 244 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 6: What I think an even more meaningful impact in our 245 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 6: lives is going to come from everyone having a personal 246 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 6: superintelligence that helps you achieve your goals, create what you 247 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 6: want to see in the world, be a better friend, 248 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 6: and grow to become the person that you aspire to be. 249 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: I like, why do I smell brimstone? 250 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 4: I like the part about maybe being more productive, but 251 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 4: the part about being a better friend. HM, that worries me. Anyway, 252 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 4: he goes on. 253 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 6: This vision is different from others in the industry who 254 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 6: wanted direct AI at automating all of the valuable work. 255 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 6: At META, we believe in putting the power of superintelligence 256 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 6: in people's hands to direct it towards what they value 257 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 6: in their own lives. Some of this will be about 258 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 6: improving productivity, but a lot of it may be more 259 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 6: personal in nature. 260 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 2: Okay, go on, and then we'll discuss. 261 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 6: This is going to be a new era in some ways, 262 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 6: but in others it's just a continuation of historical trends. 263 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 6: About two hundred years ago, ninety percent of people were 264 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 6: farmers growing food to survive. Today, fewer than two percent 265 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 6: grow all of our food. Advances in technology have freed 266 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 6: much of humanity to focus less on subsistence and more 267 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 6: on the pursuits that we choose, and at each step 268 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 6: along the way, most people have decided to use their 269 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 6: newfound productivity to spend more time on creativity. Culture relationships, 270 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 6: just enjoying life, and I expect super intelligence to accelerate 271 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: this trend even more. 272 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 5: A Mark here for tail flapped out of your pants. 273 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 5: You might want to tuck that back in. 274 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 4: So two things about that. One, the Industrial Revolution, Yes, 275 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 4: it did move us off the farms. It played out 276 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 4: over decades and there's still were revolutions around the world 277 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 4: and much blood spilled. This is going to be bigger 278 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 4: and happen faster, so it ain't exactly going to be smooth. 279 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 2: Salein he acted like that whole move. 280 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 4: From the farms to the industry was without pain. 281 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: And then the stupid thing that everybody keeps throwing out, 282 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 2: And I'll give us more time to enjoy art and 283 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: just relax. 284 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 4: What's your guarantee that that's going to be good for humanity? 285 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 4: When we got more time to sit around on the 286 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 4: couch and play guitar and look out the window, all 287 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 4: of a sudden, people are going to be happier and yay. 288 00:16:59,560 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 2: Mark. 289 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 5: Remember when you're talking about like subsistence, you know that 290 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 5: means feeding yourself, right, So anyway, so there I am 291 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 5: on my guitars, on my couch, Trump and my guitar 292 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 5: and writing bad poetry. 293 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: How am I going to feed myself? Is what I'm wondering. 294 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm sorry. The bitter irony of the guy 295 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 5: who practically single handedly devalued the meaning of the word 296 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 5: friend from somebody you can trust and count on to 297 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 5: somebody you vaguely know that you interact with online once 298 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 5: a month. The idea that he's telling me that he'll 299 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 5: help me have be a better friend, that's obscene. 300 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 4: Well yeah, and when they get into that stuff, that's 301 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 4: where it just it really makes me uncomfortable. The idea 302 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 4: of AI, can you know, do this with medicines? Okay, 303 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 4: I get that, and how that would be good. But 304 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 4: when you start talking about better relationships and stuff? 305 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: What Yeah? 306 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, the dumbest controversy ever this might be in the running. 307 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 4: The whole blue gene ad thing actually is getting some 308 00:17:58,359 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 4: mind share out there. 309 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 2: Is it nazism? Jack? Is it white supremacy? Clearly? 310 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 4: So we'll bring you the latest sdrinkle on that. I 311 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 4: thought this was dumb yesterday, it's dumber today. If you 312 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 4: missed a segment an hour get the podcast, you should 313 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 4: subscribe to Armstrong and Getty on demand. 314 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty. 315 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 7: We begin with the backlash of our new ad campaign 316 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 7: featuring actress Sidney Sweeney. 317 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 8: The ads are for American Eagle and the tagline is 318 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 8: Sidney Sweeney has great genes Now. 319 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: In one ad, the blondehair, blue. 320 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 8: Eyed actress talks about genes as in DNA, being passed 321 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 8: down from her parents. 322 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 2: The play on words is being compared to. 323 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 7: Nazi propaganda with racial undertones. The pun good genes activates 324 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 7: a troubling historical associations for this country. The American eugenics 325 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 7: movement and it's prime between like nineteen hundred and nineteen forty, 326 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:02,919 Speaker 7: weaponized the idea of good genes just to justify white supremacism. 327 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,040 Speaker 2: Despite that backlash, American Eagles thought has been soaring. 328 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 4: Are you blanking kidding me? That was on Good Morning 329 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 4: America yesterday? 330 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 2: Nazi may that's right, Sarah. 331 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 5: This may be the greatest ratio of running running it 332 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 5: up the flagpole to number of people who salute that 333 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 5: I've ever seen. There are dozens of publications around the 334 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 5: country that have probably reprinted stories about it. 335 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: There's a controversy. 336 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 5: Some people are offended or thinking that evokes white supremacy, 337 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 5: blah blah blah, and nobody other than like a smallish 338 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 5: cabal of like lefty TikTok agitators with multiple piercings and 339 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 5: purple hair are buying this garbage. 340 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 4: Well, ABC found that college professor old woman to say 341 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 4: it smacks of white supremacy and eugenics from an earlier 342 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 4: part of the twentieth cent The pressers. 343 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 5: Were the eugenics people, by the way, Yeah yeah, Woodrow 344 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 5: Wilson google it. Okay, so maybe we're missing the power 345 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,719 Speaker 5: and sensibleness of their argument. 346 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 2: Jack Oh. First of all, here's here's the voiceover of. 347 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 5: The saxy miss Sweeney, buttoning up her genes and making 348 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 5: her eugenic soaked racist Nazi paternalistic. 349 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: Ironically, because she's a hatch. Comments jans are passed down 350 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 2: from parents to offspring, often determining traits like heigh, color, personality, 351 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: and even eye color. 352 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 5: My genes are blue, Sydney Sweeney has great genes. 353 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 4: Okay, so they're selling genes and we all understand that. 354 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 4: And not one in a million normal people would have 355 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 4: seen that ad and had any reaction at all. Really, 356 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 4: perhaps if you're a dude, you'd think, well, she's attractive, 357 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 4: or if you're a female, you might think I might 358 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 4: get those genes, but no, but not one normal person 359 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 4: out of a million would have seen any controversy in 360 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 4: that at all. And so my question is mostly the 361 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 4: people like the people on ABC who played that college professor. 362 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 4: They're pretending, right, They got to be pretending. 363 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: They can't actually do it. But a producer took the 364 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 2: time to find a college professor and then go to 365 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 2: her office with a camera and film her saying that 366 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 2: crap about eugenics and white supremacy? Do they believe it? 367 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 2: Do they think the Gens company is trying to promote 368 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 2: white supremacy through their dungarees? Is that what they're doing? 369 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 5: Apparently, I'm looking at the list of headlines Sydney Sweeney's 370 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 5: American Eagle ad shows a cultural shift toward whiteness. On MSNBC, 371 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 5: Real American Eagle sparks backlash for touting Sydney Sween's great Genes. 372 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: Okay, and just said, we have a clip twenty eight 373 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 2: that answers my very question. 374 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: So okay, look, I'm not saying that Sidney Sweeney personally 375 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: wrote this ad to revive the Third Reich, but American 376 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 1: Eagle absolutely knew what they. 377 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: Were doing here. 378 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: You don't get to drop lines about inherited traits, blue 379 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: eyes and great jeens while zooming in on somebody that 380 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: could have walked straight off of a Nazi propaganda poster 381 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: and expect people not to catch that reference. 382 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 4: Wow, okay, well okay, she believes it means. 383 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: Nazi?
