Doctor Jeffrey Hinton, he's some call him the 20 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 2: godfather of AI, and he recently quit his job at 21 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: Google because he wanted to warn people about the dangers 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: of I guess continuing advances in AI. He called it 23 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 2: the technological Pandora's box, and he even went so far 24 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: as to say he regrets some of his work and 25 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: cautioned some of the against some of the potentially cata 26 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 2: catastrophic effects that this tech could pose if governments don't 27 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 2: step in and regulate. He says, right now, robots are 28 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: not more intelligent than us as far as I can tell, 29 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 2: but I think they soon may be. According to a 30 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: recent study, half of all AI researchers, half of all 31 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 2: AI researchers believe there is at least a ten percent 32 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 2: chance of AI causing human extinction, with many warning that 33 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 2: robots could be capable of human like goals such as 34 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: attaining high political office, starting new religions, or even playing 35 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: God Wow. Fifty percent of AI researchers think there's a 36 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: ten percent chance. Josh, do you think that's about right? 37 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 2: Is that accurate ten percent? 38 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 3: Or is it greater? You know, I can't guess, Richard, 39 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 3: I mean it would be a guess, it would be 40 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: exactly that. I don't know. I don't have any idea 41 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 3: but to go back and answer your previous question from 42 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 3: before the break. Yes, I do think there probably are 43 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 3: some well meaning people in stuff like the Cope of 44 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: Romans think that they've been convinced, they've been brainwashed to 45 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 3: think some of these things are the only way that 46 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 3: we can go. But what's interesting, too, Richard, I read 47 00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 3: an article I don't know a few weeks ago through 48 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 3: my I think I can't ruin. It was talking about 49 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 3: how a lot of these tech companies, That's why I 50 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: don't like the doctor you mentioned, the guy that was 51 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: developing AI and stuff to regrets his work. Here's the thing, though, 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 3: and I really do believe this. I think we have 53 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 3: to be leery of those people as well, because from 54 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 3: what I was reading, there's been several articles out about 55 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: this about how a lot of these tech companies are 56 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: actually the ones that are pushing a lot of the 57 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: fear mongering when it comes to this AI stuff in 58 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 3: order to try and help so they think that it 59 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 3: will help sell their products if they help the fear mongering. 60 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: And that's another thing I want people to know about me, 61 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 3: is I am not a fear monger. I am not 62 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 3: someone who normally goes directly to worst case scenario in 63 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: any event, and on the contrary, I'm an optimist. I 64 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 3: never go to whatever I think will be the worst case, 65 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 3: worst outcome. It could be not at all. No, this 66 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 3: is not you know, reactionism or anything on my part 67 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: of my belief in this. This is just from decades 68 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 3: of studying the elite and like you said, covered Roman, 69 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 3: the people, the controllers that are running the world, and 70 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 3: seeing how they have used technology previously to determine how 71 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 3: they might use AI in the future. I mean, look 72 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 3: what we did as soon as we hear the nuclear age. 73 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 3: What did we do there, Richard? You know, I mean 74 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 3: it's pretty clear. So again every time that these people 75 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: have gotten this new technology, whether it be I mean 76 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 3: the originally the Internet was the darpinet and the darpaet 77 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 3: you know, that was created by you know, DARFA, the 78 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, originally as an internal communications thing, 79 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: and then it became the Internet. And so I just 80 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 3: don't trust any of these people at all who are 81 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 3: telling us about AI and it's gonna be is I 82 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 3: don't try. I just the ones that are telling us 83 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 3: that it's gonna be okay, don't worry, everything's overblown. About 84 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: as much as I also trust the ones that are 85 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 3: that are also fear mongering lot too, because their motives 86 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 3: seem to be questionable as well. But I think that 87 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 3: in anything, you know, there's always going to be as 88 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: we're saying here, there's always going to be positive things, 89 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 3: things that can come out. But the real thing for 90 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 3: me that really scared me was before the break from 91 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 3: the question you asked me about. Do I think it's 92 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 3: well meaning people if they're just going along because I 93 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 3: think this is how they're going to save the planet 94 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 3: and save us from climate change and resource depletion and 95 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: all that. Yeah, I think there's absolutely some people like 96 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: that in there. And that's one of the reasons why 97 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 3: I do the work that I do is because you 98 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 3: never know who this work is going to reach. You 99 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 3: never know, well, there might be some AI engineer and 100 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 3: here's this show of your tonight, Richard and and and 101 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: has to change of heart and says, you know what, 102 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: I don't like the work I'm doing anymore. This doesn't 103 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 3: look to me like it's heading into a positive direction. 104 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: I don't want to do this. That happens, you know, 105 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 3: that's how we have whistleblowers or whatnot. So I think 106 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: that even though the the future and outlook of this 107 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 3: stuff does look grim. It's really we have to come 108 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: to our own conclusions on this stuff. You know, don't 109 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 3: believe me. You don't believe what I'm saying. You know, 110 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 3: I'm made a movie about this because I thought it 111 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 3: was important. But I you know, I don't know as 112 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 3: much as anybody, you know, I don't know what's gonna happen. 113 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 3: Maybe nothing happens, maybe everything is good, maybe everything turns 114 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: out great. But really that's kind of an unrealistic expectation 115 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: when you look at who the people are who have 116 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 3: used all technology up to this point for their own 117 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,559 Speaker 3: aims and their own goals and all that stuff. That's 118 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 3: where my suspect suspect nature comes into play, is going. 119 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 3: I just don't trust the people that have this technology, 120 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 3: you know, as much as I trust the technology itself. 121 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: I really think the technology itself is being developed the 122 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 3: way it is, like I said earlier, because they want 123 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: to give themselves that plausible deniability. 124 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: I agree, you know, the trust. It is not a 125 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: word we we we use a lot these days when 126 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: it comes to the ruling elites or the technocrats. But 127 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: even even if they are well meaning, uh, if they 128 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 2: believe that there is an existential crisis and they need 129 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 2: we need AI in order to avert that crisis. Their 130 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: solutions using AI are still pretty grim. I mean, they're 131 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 2: still talking about, you know, massive depopulation. Now they'll put ah, 132 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: you know, uh, some lipstick on that and say, well, 133 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: but we want to do it peacefully and orderly. Uh, 134 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: if possible. How do you think AI will be used 135 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: to to reduce populations or at the very least control populations. 136 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: Well, it already is, That's the thing. It already. There's 137 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 3: a clipp in my film AI Again that I hope 138 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 3: people buy and check out. There's a clipp in there 139 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 3: that I have where it's talking about how people who 140 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:07,559 Speaker 3: are now using AI chat bots as girlfriends and how 141 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 3: that has affected the birth rates already. Already they've seen 142 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: your reduction in birth rates already with this little flimsy, 143 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 3: little Aiah. That's the whole thing. 144 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 1: You know. 145 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 3: As much as I don't see a good out look 146 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 3: for this stuff, at the same time, out not real 147 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: worried about where it's at right now. I'm worried about 148 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: where it's going to be in a few more years. 149 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 3: Where at that right now, you know where this stuff 150 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 3: where it's just pulling stuff off the web, you know, 151 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 3: all the AI genies and all that chat ai and 152 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: all that stuff. Right now, it's not I don't think 153 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 3: it's as dangerous right now as it will be. But 154 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 3: what it's doing is is it's building up it's brain 155 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 3: power by people in putting stuff into it. If you 156 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: use one of these AI chat bots, you are literally 157 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: helping to train this thing, and they get smarter and 158 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 3: smarter and smarter. So no, I think that again, like 159 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 3: you said, it's tough to be optimistic about this stuff 160 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: when you see what's already been done with stuff like 161 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 3: you know, the Internet and how they've used it to 162 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 3: restrict free skates in a lot of ways, and how 163 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 3: they've used it to keep certain people like myself and 164 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 3: their work suppressed from you know, a large large consumption 165 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 3: by the masses for years and years and years. You know. 166 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 3: It's I've seen what they've already done just with the 167 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 3: technology we have now, and so to just even think 168 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 3: about what they might do not guarantee they will do 169 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 3: these things, but what they might do with it is 170 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 3: enough to raise the alarms. And that's certainly where I'm 171 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 3: coming from. And why I made this film because I'm 172 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 3: not going to sit here and lie to people. I 173 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: am not an expert on artificial intelligence. I don't want 174 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 3: people to get that idea. I'm a researcher and I 175 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 3: research a variety of different topics. I've been doing it 176 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 3: for over thirty years, and I when I'm researching a film, 177 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: I'm drawing from every element of everything that I've ever 178 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 3: researched for years and years and years and putting that together. 179 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 3: And that's what I think that we need more of 180 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 3: in this world is people who are just trying to 181 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: stand up and do something because it's the right thing 182 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: to do. 183 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: You know. 184 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 3: That's why I do this. That's why I hope people 185 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 3: will support my work, because I teeter on the edge 186 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: of going under for good every single month because I 187 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 3: don't have funny from NGOs and corporations. I don't even 188 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: have sponsors on my radio show. I have no outside funny. 189 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: All my funny for my work comes in through my 190 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 3: listeners and my supporters, from donations and then buying my 191 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 3: movies and stuff, because that allows people to know that 192 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 3: I cannot be bought. Because I can't be bought. These 193 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 3: people don't have enough money to buy me. There's not 194 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 3: enough money in the world to buy me. I will 195 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 3: never stop. I will never quit. And when I started 196 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 3: doing I just celebrated my sixteen year anniversary last month 197 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: of my show and my filmmaking. And you know, like 198 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 3: I said, it's tough. Sometimes I barely make you know what, 199 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: I'm never gonna quit. And that's what we need more 200 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 3: of in this world. We just need more your people 201 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 3: standing up and going, you know what, I'm gonna do 202 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: something anything. I don't even know how to do it. 203 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 3: That's what I did. I didn't know how to make 204 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 3: films or or talk on the radio or have a 205 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 3: radio voice or anything like that when I first started 206 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 3: in two thousand and seven. But I had at that 207 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: point twenty years of research behind me, and I just said, 208 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 3: you know what, maybe if I take what I know 209 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 3: and I take it out there to the people, and 210 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 3: I put it out there, maybe there's somebody else who's 211 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 3: on their own personal journey of truth and trying to 212 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 3: find answers to things, and maybe it'll inspire them to 213 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 3: do something. And in the end, I think that's all 214 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 3: we can do is just try to inspire each other 215 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 3: to try and get the masses awaken from the slumber. 216 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 3: And I'm really positive in that element because I think 217 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 3: that there's more people aware of all this stuff than 218 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: there ever has been in any point in human history, 219 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: and so for that I am positive. But the thing 220 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: of it is, that's why I've made seven point one 221 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 3: eight films this year, because you know, I turned forty 222 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: seven in July, and the particular clock of father time 223 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: looms large. But also I feel the ticking clock of 224 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 3: us running out of time to expose the elite overlord's 225 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 3: planning on what they're doing. So that's where this whole 226 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 3: motivation to make seven films in one year has come about. 227 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 3: I hope people support my work and buy them because 228 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 3: it's so important that I'd be able to continue, not 229 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 3: for me personally or anything else, but just because I 230 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 3: want to continue to be that example for people, to 231 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: show them that look, it's okay, you're a regular person. 232 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 3: I'm nothing special either. I'm just a guy who decided 233 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: after nine to eleven. When I worked in the tech industry, 234 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 3: I heard guys talking about this AI stuff twenty years ago. 235 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 3: They were talking about twenty years ago. I worked for 236 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: a software company that makes a major tax preparation software. 237 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say which one, but it's one you 238 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 3: would know of. And guys were talking about twenty years ago. 239 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 3: They were talking about how they were moving towards having 240 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 3: tax preparation software that's completely AI and does the taxes 241 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 3: for you. I heard anti virus guys talking about how 242 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 3: they were going to have AI anti virus software, and 243 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 3: so I don't know, maybe they do not, I don't know, 244 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 3: but that's for sure. Come this is twenty years ago, Richard, 245 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: that I heard these guys talking about this. So that's 246 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 3: what I know. And that's why I got so emphatic 247 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 3: about trying to do something, is because I've known for 248 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 3: a long time the stuff is common, and it's really 249 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 3: scared me. I don't, like I said, I don't spook easy, 250 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 3: and I'm not a fear monger, but I really felt 251 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 3: it was time to, you know, start reading the bell 252 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: and putting the line on. 253 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, even the current iteration of even the current iteration 254 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 2: of chat GBT, and I don't know what they're up 255 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: to now, whether it's four or five or whatever. Even 256 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: chat GBT creator Sam Altman says he's a little bit 257 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: scared of it, but I am chilled by it. You know, 258 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 2: already we have teachers educators who are very concerned about 259 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: this because students are using it to write term papers 260 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 2: and you know, essays and so forth. And I guess 261 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: you know there is a there is a way to 262 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 2: detect it. But I don't know the idea of AI 263 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: creating new music. I'm not talking about what the Beatles did, 264 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 2: the surviving Beatles taking using AI to extract John Lennon's 265 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: voice from a track that also contained a music piano bed. 266 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 2: That's different as far as I'm concerned. But when you're 267 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 2: creating new music out of nothing, yeah, yeah, all of 268 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 2: a sudden, we have a new song by Jimmy Hendrix 269 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: and it sounds exactly like Jimmy Hendrix and he's playing. 270 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 2: I don't know a new song that's written by someone 271 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: using AI. I mean, I suppose there's a bit of it. 272 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 2: It's kind of entertaining and amusing, but we're losing our humanity. 273 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: Like all of our new music. Actors will may be replaced. 274 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: They're already replacing extras in film because it's expensive to hire. 275 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 2: Let's say you know you have a battle scene, You've 276 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: got one hundred extras or a courtroom scene, and you 277 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 2: need twelve jurors. No longer do you need the jurors. 278 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: They create them with artificial intelligence. This is what that 279 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 2: concerns me is we're losing our humanity. Even if it 280 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: seems like a cost saving measure or it's convenient, we're 281 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 2: losing our humanity. 282 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 3: Well, going back to something you were saying earlier about 283 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: the self driving car thing is you know, I didn't 284 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 3: really get to answer your question properly on that. I 285 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 3: don't think answer your question from earlier. It is that 286 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: there's ever going to be a time where, no matter 287 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: how good the computers in the AI get, that it's 288 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 3: going to be able to effectively drive a motor vehicle 289 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 3: the way that a human can. There's so much nuance 290 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 3: and little things that are involved in driving and things 291 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 3: that happen on the fly and on the moment, and 292 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: it's using such you can feel the way your brain 293 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 3: feels when you're driving. It feels a certain way when 294 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: you're doing because you're using all these different things all 295 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 3: at once. I don't think that there will ever be 296 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: a way to perfect. I mean, maybe it'll get better, 297 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 3: or they're driving yourself driving car thing can be better. 298 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 3: But my point a better earlier was Hey, elon, let's 299 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 3: keep the self driving car thing figured out first, then 300 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 3: we can start putting chips in people's brains. After that, Okay, 301 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 3: let's let's star put your car. 302 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 2: I think that's I think that's uh you spot on, I. 303 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 3: Think I think that absolutely there's you know, it's what 304 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 3: chows you to the bone again, Richard, is not for me. 305 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 3: I just think for me personally, awso with the technology itself, 306 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 3: but who I know wants to get their hands on 307 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 3: this and use it. That's what chills me to the bone. 308 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 3: And that's why again for them to just blame it 309 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 3: on whatever they want. 310 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: Listen to more Coast to Coast AM every weeknight at 311 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: one a m.
