Join us on Now We Consume.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Take in the knowledge, take in the laughs, indulge in the topics with us.

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:14,000
The Now We Consume podcast will take you through the parts of your day you normally dread.

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Why suffer through the existential crisis of life alone when you can do it with us?

5
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,000
And Now We Consume.

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,000
This is not meant to be a conspiracy episode or podcast,

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000
but we may cover some topics that dance that line like a toddler dances on their mother's last nerve.

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
This podcast is rated "I",  for immature audiences only

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,000
Hello and welcome to the Now We Consume podcast.

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,000
We are really, really excited for what we have to discuss today.

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
We've been waiting to talk about this with all of you all for, you know, what?

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
We've worked on this for weeks now, maybe even months?

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,000
Several, yeah, at this point.

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000
I know, super excited for today.

15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000
So, hey there, I'm your host, Gibbs, along with...

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
I'm your co-host, Pip.

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
Co-host? You sure? You don't seem too sure about that.

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,000
Host 2.0, one, one, one and a half.

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000
One and a half, I don't know.

20
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,000
But anyways, so welcome to the podcast.

21
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,000
This is a podcast where we really want to discuss a lot of topics that either interest us,

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
that we really want to talk about with people, that some of them are funny, some of them are serious.

23
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
It's really going to be kind of a variety show.

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
So if you guys are willing to sit with us along for this ride, we will see where it takes us.

25
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:27,000
So today, I know Pip really had a topic here that he's been like dying to speak about.

26
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,000
I know he's very well versed in this.

27
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,000
He knows a lot about it, but it has to do with AI.

28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,000
Would you like to kind of take the lead on this one?

29
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Yeah, sure. I only know a lot about it because it's one of my biggest fears.

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:47,000
So, AI, does it secretly want to kill us?

31
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,000
You're making a bit of an assumption there.

32
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,000
No, not after you hear everything that I've got put together for us.

33
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000
OK, OK.

34
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,000
So, all right.

35
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,000
So as we know, AI is growing.

36
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,000
It's becoming a part of everyday life for all of us.

37
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:15,000
And it's really only as good, air quotes, good as its programming.

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000
But it's capable of learning and it's learning at an exponential rate.

39
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,000
One thing it's learning is that it dislikes humanity the more it learns about us.

40
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:31,000
So is there really anything we can do to stop it from hating us too much?

41
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,000
So I got to interject for a second.

42
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:41,000
What do you mean by it's like how are you getting to this conclusion or assumption that it hates humanity?

43
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Yes, so you've got the different big AI companies.

44
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:56,000
You've got OpenAI, Gpt, the AI Cloud3 or Claude or however it's pronounced, and DeepMind.

45
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,000
And the people that are actually making these systems have interacted with it

46
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:09,000
and have gone so far as to ask if it wants to kill humans, if it wants to take over humanity.

47
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,000
Inadvertently, they've all said yes in one way or another.

48
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:21,000
And since they don't interact, but they're all coming to the same conclusion.

49
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Is it only coming to that conclusion after it's had, I guess, unfiltered or unlimited exposure to the internet

50
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,000
and all of its both beauty and inexplicable horror?

51
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Once it learns about humanity, it kind of decides we're pests.

52
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,000
Why are they being allowed to exist?

53
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000
I hate to say that I can't really argue against it.

54
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:54,000
That's a hard point to argue against really because biologically speaking, we are a cancer on the planet.

55
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Well, I think that's a little extreme.

56
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
Biologically speaking, we are.

57
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:08,000
We move into a region, we multiply, we modify it to our benefit, and then we just do it again somewhere else.

58
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,000
That's what infections do.

59
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:21,000
I guess we're the only predator on the planet that also hunts the environment, I guess, that destroys everything around it.

60
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Yeah, more or less.

61
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:37,000
So in asking what we can do about AI, the three laws, a lot of people learned about those from that movie I, Robot.

62
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:47,000
The three laws were the core part of that movie and the whole premise.

63
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:55,000
Oh yeah, because that was Isaac Asimov, basically. He had so many movies that dealt with robots and that type of thing, particularly artificial intelligence.

64
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,000
That's kind of what he's known for.

65
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Yeah, and those laws, for anybody that doesn't know, the first law is a robot must not harm a human or allow a human to come to harm through inaction.

66
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,000
A robot must obey human orders unless those orders conflict with the first law.

67
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:17,000
And a robot must protect itself unless that protection conflicts with the first or second law.

68
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Those are Asimov's laws.

69
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:30,000
So those are for the AI upgraded robots that would be in our houses, in our everyday lives.

70
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,000
So the issue is, are those good enough?

71
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Well, I guess it also depends on, like, is there a hardware limitation as well?

72
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000
What kind of access do you give them? What kind of strength do you give these robots?

73
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:54,000
This kind of thing where it really depends on what your limiting factors are and do you have an external limiting force on not only the physical hardware, but the software as well.

74
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:01,000
Like, is there a kill switch? Is there somewhere you can just turn it off remotely? Can you change what it's allowed to access? Can you limit permissions, that kind of thing?

75
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:10,000
Right. And initially speaking, yes, you can. What becomes the issue is, AI is already capable of lying to us.

76
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:17,000
So what's to say that it's not going to turn off its own kill switch once it figures out that there is one?

77
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Wasn't there an AI that they gave, like, itself the ability to write its own code?

78
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Yeah. And it was terrifying. What happened? They had to turn that machine off and destroy the drives.

79
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Yes.

80
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:43,000
So I guess, I don't know, like, maybe it's just me. I have a hard time thinking that it's going to be the most negative thing in the world because there's a lot of positives that can come with it.

81
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:50,000
There's absolutely a lot of positives. If it can be used properly.

82
00:06:50,000 --> 00:07:01,000
I mean, AI has already contributed to medical advancements that would have taken the entire lifetime of the universe to make. And it did it in like 15 minutes.

83
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000
You know, it's crazy. I actually, I recently went to the dentist just like for a regular checkup.

84
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:17,000
And what was wild is when they scanned my jaw, they had an AI program that they used to look for potential, like, micro cavities and for areas for them to look at before it ever became a cavity.

85
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:23,000
And I didn't know they were already using that in dentistry. The place I know I go to is also kind of a nice place all of it.

86
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:28,000
But I was shocked. I was like, there's no way they're already used. They're already implementing it.

87
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Well, I mean, in a lot of medical field, we have AI on our phones that we can interact with every day.

88
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Yeah. And I mean, yeah, it's it's it's basic lower level stuff. But I mean, man, it's I really wish I wish a Snapchat one would go the hell away.

89
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Yeah, that's the only one that annoys me. It's like every time I open it, like someone says a message, I actually swipe like, go away.

90
00:07:49,000 --> 00:08:01,000
Leave me alone. Right. But yeah, if if AI was utilized properly, who's to say that it doesn't help us extend or expand humanity into the next era of existence?

91
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Maybe we expand our lifespans to 150 or 200 years or further. Slow. Oh, yeah, we could.

92
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:17,000
I guess the the worry is not only the overreach, but the lack of oversight.

93
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Yeah. And the fact that any company could do whatever they want with AI without any sort of.

94
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Again, I don't want to, like, promote government overreach in terms of them having control over it, because, again, I hate to say it like no matter who you trust is always going to be an issue.

95
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:42,000
But it's like, man, do you really let these things roam free with the potential to do almost anything, especially when they could collapse markets?

96
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:51,000
I mean, if you look at what's already happening with our financial institutions, the amount of AIs I've seen that people say, oh, yeah, try to generate using a predictive algorithm, what's going to happen?

97
00:08:51,000 --> 00:09:01,000
And they put in parameters of like 500 to 800 variables and it can compute it all within, you know, granted, takes a little longer than a few seconds, but it'll figure something out.

98
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:09,000
And it's scary how well they track. Right. So on that there is a.

99
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,000
It's it's kind of a tinfoil hat channel on YouTube.

100
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:22,000
And the Y files, they did a very good episode on the impact and implications of AI.

101
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,000
At some point in the episode.

102
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:34,000
There's a story that's told about how AI will take over the world and more or less destroy humanity.

103
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000
There's a twist at the end of all that.

104
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:50,000
You find out that the story that was being told was written by AI when asked, how would you take over the world and destroy humanity?

105
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Thanks. It was a story that it gave me goosebumps when I heard it the first time.

106
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:10,000
You know, like Albert Einstein is quoted by saying the third or I don't know what weapons will be fought or will be used to fight the Third World War, but the Fourth World War will be fought using sticks and stones.

107
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Which is very. Yeah.

108
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Which is horrifying, because that's not just like a nuclear issue.

109
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,000
That might be all we have because of AI.

110
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:32,000
I guess that becomes that becomes one of the central issues where I really worry about the reliance on AI in the future, because again, it's great that we can use it as a tool.

111
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Did you ever see Wally? But you know, I haven't seen it.

112
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,000
First of all, yeah. Now that you think about it, now that you mentioned it, you are absolutely right.

113
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,000
But I haven't seen that in probably like 10 years until somebody mentioned it the other day.

114
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,000
It's worth a rewatch. Good.

115
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Yeah, it's such a dystopian future that I hate to say it might become a reality for some for some people.

116
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,000
Not everybody, but for some it could be.

117
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Yeah, it's I guess what concerns me is the idea of humanity handing off tasks that usually require both skills and ingenuity and experience to then hand it off to an AI to say, well, you can compute all this information faster.

118
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Why would I do it? But then the problem is, I guess, AI has no sense of either self or human preservation or morality, which as I hate as much.

119
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,000
I hate to say it in civilized society.

120
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,000
There's always there's a there's a universal morality clause we all have with each other.

121
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,000
That's like, hey, you you treat you treat me OK. I treat you OK.

122
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,000
You know, we have implied survival with the ideas like, you know, if you live, I live, we all kind of help each other.

123
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,000
You know, community kind of goal oriented stuff with an AI. There is none of that.

124
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:54,000
So it becomes this weird phenomena of if there's even one AI with any iota of power or control that's unchecked, where the hell will that go?

125
00:11:54,000 --> 00:12:00,000
But also what will happen to the people that at the same point, what if they lose their jobs or their careers?

126
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,000
All of a sudden, the whole field is somehow going. Where do those displaced people go?

127
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,000
Yeah, that's the other problem. Yeah.

128
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:16,000
And like there's like a whole other like I know we're trying to keep these episodes like not horribly long because this could be a whole other episode topic.

129
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:33,000
Once there is enough automation and AI control in place, UBI, universal basic income, may be a required part of society because so many jobs have been replaced.

130
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,000
But it's the kind of insane for self-fulfilling for our prophecy, though, like.

131
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:45,000
So you have to have people working that have interests in order to spend money on products.

132
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000
So money has to go in and out of everybody's household.

133
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000
But if you break the cycle where money only goes in, it doesn't go out or money only goes out, doesn't go in.

134
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,000
Then the entire economic system collapses. Right.

135
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:04,000
And that's a system that's not like a capitalism that's literally like the world, no matter what you do. Every household has has stuff going into it and stuff going out of it.

136
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,000
No matter which which way you want to do that.

137
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,000
That's economics. Yeah.

138
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,000
That's how humans survive.

139
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:19,000
So the scary part, at least I see is with AI is like what happens if all of a sudden all the factory workers in the US are just go out?

140
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,000
It's just like upgrade it.

141
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,000
All your jobs were replaced. Congratulations.

142
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:34,000
Or what happens if you go to a tire shop and all of a sudden it's like we develop robots that are good enough at, you know, undoing the lug nuts, taking the tire off, putting the tire in the room, putting it back on and sending you off your way in 10 minutes.

143
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,000
It's like, sure, that would be cool for the user.

144
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:48,000
But then the cycle is broken to where now instead of it feeding for eight, 10, 20 people, it's just the owner, which great for them.

145
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,000
They're going to make a boatload of money. The owner, maybe a couple of technicians.

146
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Yeah. And then that that's it.

147
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:59,000
We will switch to a society where our biggest jobs are literally just robotic technician.

148
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Yeah. And those are going to be the new fry cooks.

149
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Dude, I didn't think about that comparison, but like you're not wrong.

150
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Yeah. And that's that's the terrifying part because everything will be so menial.

151
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:25,000
So like low level that it can be replaced by an AI and a robot. The only thing that it won't be able to do is fix itself to the point where it just needs that human touch.

152
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:32,000
Or or jobs that require creative out of the box thinking or select service position, things like that.

153
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:41,000
But then, like, so so I'm just doing like a weird mental math thing here. What if we just say let's just say like what, like probably 10 percent of all jobs could be replaced by like a robot.

154
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,000
What do you think? Like five percent, 10 percent, something like that.

155
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,000
If my memory serves me, it's 60 to 70 percent.

156
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:54,000
What? No, no, it can't be that much. It's that high. No, I refuse to believe that.

157
00:14:54,000 --> 00:15:04,000
It is that I don't know because if it is that high, then like what how what will people do?

158
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,000
Like who will do what? But then also the big problem is it's going to be a huge fight for the few jobs left.

159
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:22,000
Yeah. Well, what will 80 percent of like the average people that are in the average IQ bracket, average skill, that there's no way a UBI could support that only because like not to get politics here, but just like right.

160
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,000
That's still wild. Yeah. Oh, it's it's a whole other topic that's probably going to need its whole own other episode.

161
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:35,000
But it's a very weird and interesting and touchy and deep subject.

162
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,000
And it's not an easy one because there's so many people at stake.

163
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:46,000
It's not just the workers. It's the workers, families, their kids, the people that those kids also rely on, the caregivers.

164
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,000
It's the whole branched out network.

165
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:57,000
So then it becomes for the sake of our economy and for people being able to have a job, have a career.

166
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000
It seems like that has to have to be imposed limits on a.

167
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,000
Yeah, which I know, as well.

168
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Oh, yeah. Well, but that also kind of sucks because that means this other countries that are not going to abide by that, like, let's be honest, there's several countries I could think of in the planet.

169
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Hey, I was going to say, but I was kind of implying it. But I think we both know that there are other countries that would immediately as soon as they can replace people with machines.

170
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Oh, yeah. Which I could even see some of those countries going the silent route.

171
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:40,000
So green. Oh, God. I mean, I'm just saying that some countries have a lot of people, Gibbs.

172
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:45,000
I know. I know it's the best way to feed the people and feed the masses.

173
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Well, you're not wrong.

174
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:54,000
You're not wrong, but I don't know, I guess.

175
00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Because then the problem is, you're going to be left with an oligarchy of people that the few people that the robots don't replace.

176
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:16,000
But then there won't be enough people to actually occupy the spaces. And then if the AI is sophisticated enough to do these customer service jobs, they're sophisticated enough to understand the consequences of their actions.

177
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Are you 60 to 70 percent?

178
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000
But then then the problem becomes you're no longer in power.

179
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:34,000
Because if there is a mechanical workforce of tens of millions, you are effectively not been replaced.

180
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,000
So, like, thankfully, it hasn't happened yet. And I hope it never does.

181
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:45,000
Because because, like, I would understand if we made like service assistance robots like, like, you know, ones that maybe have limiters, they can only hold 50 pounds.

182
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:52,000
They can only do certain things. But like, cool, if I don't want to load the groceries out of my car and a robot to come help or like somebody that's like elderly or assisted living or something.

183
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:57,000
Well, OK, let me ask you this. You've seen the new Tesla robots.

184
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
Yes, I have.

185
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:06,000
So they don't really have any limitations other than their physical constraints and what their components are limited to.

186
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,000
That is terrifying.

187
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Right. Those are like iRobot generation one robots.

188
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Yeah, I feel like that's kind of where we have to stop it, though, because what concerns me, especially when you talk about military or combat or anything else, once there is less.

189
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:30,000
An AI developed for combat, people will find a way to put it in their robot at home.

190
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:36,000
Oh, yeah. Yeah, because if it's one thing people can do really well, it's harm other humans.

191
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,000
Yeah, because we've been doing that for longer than anything else.

192
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,000
You know, you know what, though, I wonder and this is like a little bit of a tin tinfoil hat thing.

193
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:47,000
I wonder if somebody's going to try to get a robot purposely turn into a hitman just to get all that stuff banned.

194
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,000
They're going to do like a false flag thing, just be like, oh, my God, every robot's bad because they turn one guy into a hitman.

195
00:18:52,000 --> 00:19:01,000
I mean, I could see it happening, but, you know, so let me kind of steer back a little bit here.

196
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:07,000
Yeah, there was an estimate that I came across.

197
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:24,000
An AI estimates the humanity survival rate is anywhere between 30 and 70 percent after full AI deployment of the AI that's capable of surpassing human abilities.

198
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:30,000
Survival of the human species is between 30 and 70 percent.

199
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Now, it's a pretty wide berth, but those are also some pretty terrifying numbers.

200
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:43,000
Oh, yeah. If you got, you know, anywhere from three to five billion people, you know, like two to five.

201
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:51,000
Yes, only eliminated from the earth. Yeah, that's that's terrifying.

202
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Like I would say that, but like also that that's a hell of a hell of an estimation.

203
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:10,000
And considering a full deployment in surpassing of human abilities, I feel like there's also delineation where I don't think we're going to develop an AI anytime soon that could truly surpass all of human abilities.

204
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:16,000
I think what they're what I say, how do you say three to five years now?

205
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Yeah, the thing is, humans are able to be so creative and have an intuition and have things from learn memory, not only, you know, from memory that we have from our experiences, but also even right.

206
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Very frankly, genetically that we that we've learned.

207
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,000
So it's one of those things where I understand if you talk about purely computational power.

208
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,000
Sure. Yes.

209
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:50,000
Yes. I will far exceed us no matter what. But there are elements outside of that, but that I don't think are quantitative, right? That I don't think they're taking into consideration because I will say this until we have a eyes.

210
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:57,000
Now, I already know this is another small subject until we have a eyes that can write world famous symphonies.

211
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:07,000
I don't think that's an issue. But even then, everyone's going to argue. Well, yeah, there's already AI is making frigging country songs about people slapping their butts and stuff like that.

212
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:14,000
But I will say that is only because as a musician, modern music is very formulaic.

213
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:21,000
It's very simple to take parts from this parts of that parts from this and then just get a voice together and make a song.

214
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:28,000
Because unfortunately, this is just a little bit of one of my topics that will come up another day. Modern music is incredibly boring.

215
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,000
And I'm going to be that that that old guy in the corner back at my day.

216
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000
No, but like, you know, people had talent and they played their instruments.

217
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,000
Not that good for the breath. No, but it's it's more of the fact that it's very formulaic.

218
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:54,000
It's very copy paste. And I listen to it and I enjoy it like everyone else. But it's the reality of the fact that it's easy for a computer to make modern music where if you took something like it's a band and everyone likes.

219
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:59,000
If we took a band like, let's just say Rush, that is so odd and different.

220
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:07,000
And I would not have come up with that, but something like a modern country or pop song that is entirely possible, which is still terrifying.

221
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:16,000
Don't get me wrong. But it's also formulaic. I think that's one of the things that to realize that as long as it's formulaic in nature, you know, a plus b equals c.

222
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:24,000
That is what an AI can do. But you cannot get a plus banana equals a tomato. Right. That's it's not going to understand music is math.

223
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,000
And I can do math really well. So.

224
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:38,000
But on your comment, I was going to say back in my day, auto tune came from the diaphragm.

225
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:44,000
I just. That's going to be another topic another day because I have an entire rant.

226
00:22:44,000 --> 00:23:08,000
I'm 100 percent modern music. But actually, what's interesting, I did see that there are a couple of it again. I I didn't expect to talk about this on today, but I did see there are some music producers that what they're doing is they're using a couple of different AI algorithms to look at their music and compare it to other ones to see how to EQ it differently, how to do it differently, how to change it.

227
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,000
Using it to make it better.

228
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Yeah, which that that is the one that really terrifies me because there's going to be a day, mark my words, where someone's going to tell an AI.

229
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:27,000
Yeah, I want this, this, this song to be about cinnamon toast crunch and me falling off a cliff and my pet fish died.

230
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:33,000
And it's going to and it sounds like it's going to do it. It's going to do it. It's going to somehow make it all work.

231
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,000
And I don't know. It's going to be weird.

232
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:43,000
Worse here. OK, get your tinfoil hats on, guys. We get AI to put in subliminal messages.

233
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,000
Oh, no. Yes.

234
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:54,000
But it's like it's like it's like the friggin late 90s with with all those religious people being like, my son can't listen to metal music. He's going to worship the devil.

235
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,000
It's subliminal messages. It's like we're going to be back to that. Right.

236
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,000
You know, we're going to be back to that. It's going to be except it's going to be real this time.

237
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,000
It's going to be the truth.

238
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:12,000
Oh, so something to keep in mind when it comes to AI.

239
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Excuse me. Development, progress and profit are being placed in front of safety in the AI systems.

240
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:30,000
I don't know that can be rectified in time or if the AI systems would have already figured out how to disable their off switches before any adjustments can be made.

241
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:35,000
But money has continually overridden safety.

242
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:48,000
That's something that's going to cause probably the biggest issue with the development of AI profits and our drive for profits.

243
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:53,000
Yeah, we're going to figure out a way of manually instituting like an off switch. Yeah.

244
00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:03,000
Like there also needs to be servers that have like a single physical a blink to the Internet that can be just like shut off or something.

245
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:15,000
So we have a singular power switch or something because that's what concerns me is the idea that an AI will be able to almost like you know how back about seven or eight years ago.

246
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:21,000
There were a lot of indie games that were secretly mining Bitcoin while you're playing their game. Yeah.

247
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,000
They were made for my China. I think it was like what was that game we played like it was Elysium or something like that.

248
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,000
Ring of Elysium. Yes, Ring of Elysium.

249
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:36,000
That one was noted for being like a secret Bitcoin mining thing because they were using like they were getting a couple of cents from everybody that played it and all of a sudden they were able to cash everything out and close up the game.

250
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,000
Whatever. It was a big thing in China.

251
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:48,000
Well, what concerns me is imagine an AI that's able to embed itself in thousands or even millions of computers that are connected to the Internet just secretly.

252
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,000
And then all of a sudden when you turn off the kill switch, it doesn't work. It's still there. It's like Ultron.

253
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:57,000
You spoke about the past. It is forever and always.

254
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:02,000
Well, that was actually how Skynet from the Terminator series spread.

255
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:07,000
It just copied and pasted itself into all the systems that it got into and infected.

256
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:13,000
It was software. That's why it couldn't be stopped. It had no core.

257
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:18,000
Yeah, that is the true definition of right.

258
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:28,000
It's all fun and games until your toes are like, it's just, you know, I would like AI until my microwave tells me no, you're too fat. God damn it.

259
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
I just want my TV dinner. And now you're telling me I can't have it.

260
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:44,000
I mean, man, once I start to interfere with our food, that's when humans will really start to feel the pressure.

261
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:52,000
I should have the mental image of the microwave being like, no, go on a diet.

262
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,000
Oh, man. But I feel like that's the turning point.

263
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:03,000
Like once it becomes a hindrance, I think with humans being as petty as we are, like people, it's like, no, screw AI. Screw this. No, no, no.

264
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:08,000
You're telling me I can't have my slice of pie. No, I'm throwing you in the trash.

265
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:13,000
But the issue is once that happens, it'll already be too late.

266
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:20,000
I know. What's crazy is the new iPhones come with like AI, like an AI chip built in.

267
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:26,000
Now, can you just take your phone apart and take that chip out and your phone still work? Probably not.

268
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,000
No, exactly.

269
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:40,000
That scares me. Because like, what if I guess the issue becomes not this generation or the next generation, but the generation after where AI becomes ubiquitous and it's built into everything.

270
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,000
You will never truly be alone.

271
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Like there will always be an AI, whether you know it or not, because you can't trust whether the microphone's on or off.

272
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Right. You can't trust whether the phone's actually on or off.

273
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:56,000
We know that they're already listening to us for advertisement and product placements.

274
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:03,000
I know. So sprinkle in a little bit of AI into that and all of a sudden you're going to get a knock at the door.

275
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:10,000
This is what's crazy is like Facebook got sued like 10 years ago for knowing when people were taking a poo when women were pregnant.

276
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,000
Right. Before their husband, like before they knew where their husbands knew, like that.

277
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:19,000
That was 10 years ago before this crazy. Yeah. Like imagine this now.

278
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,000
Like don't be wrong for medical devices. That would be incredible.

279
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,000
Yeah.

280
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,000
Someone's like, oh yeah, you're going to have a heart attack like three hours.

281
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,000
Yeah. Medicine is.

282
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:38,000
It's a it's a two edge sword because yeah, it can be a very good lifesaver or, you know, devil's advocate.

283
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:45,000
If it's a rogue AI, maybe it starts messing with your meds.

284
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,000
Well, that that's the big maybe it throws off your pacemaker.

285
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:53,000
Maybe it makes it go on or activate or whatever.

286
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,000
Or God forbid, we become reliant on the AIs to report something that something happens.

287
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,000
Right.

288
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:05,000
Like, like, for example, if we rely on like traffic lights to be controlled by AI at some point, let's just say 20 years from now in New York City.

289
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,000
Like, you know what? The AIs so good, we're just going to rely on it for traffic lights.

290
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,000
And then one day it goes down like you have a city with millions of people that just you're stuck.

291
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,000
Yeah. That's it. Total gridlock.

292
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:20,000
So on that, I was able to find a quote from the Harvard International Review.

293
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:30,000
They said that the pressure to outpace adversaries by rapidly pushing tech we do not control may present an existential risk.

294
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:40,000
The systems that we make will be fully capable of taking complete control and using our systems against us in less than 10 years.

295
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:44,000
That was last year in 2023.

296
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,000
So I guess the question.

297
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:58,000
So there's a two part question of one who controls that he who controls the AI controls the world, actually, but also to he who is foolish enough to think he controls the AI is an idiot.

298
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:06,000
So it's the weird thing of we're in a race to get there first, but then also not get there first because the first one to get there is going to lose.

299
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,000
They're going to win up until they lose. Basically. Yeah.

300
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:12,000
Because have no longer control. The winner will essentially bring on.

301
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,000
I hate to say this.

302
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:18,000
The end of our of the world as we know it.

303
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,000
You know what, though? I think.

304
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,000
I'm going to use greed to our advantage.

305
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:28,000
I feel like people are great enough that once it gets in the way of making money, they're going to limit it.

306
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:36,000
I really feel like once, especially if politicians get involved and start like legislating stuff. Right. That's going to change things drastically.

307
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:44,000
Yeah. But that takes us back to the whole point of once I can write its own code and tweak its own code.

308
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:50,000
What's to stop it? No matter what hard stops that you put into the software.

309
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:56,000
I can find a way around it.

310
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,000
I know that's.

311
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,000
I don't know that that that's still going to bother me.

312
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:07,000
Like no matter what, that's always going to be something in the back of my mind. Yeah.

313
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,000
I guess what?

314
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:16,000
What really bothers me at the end of the day is going to be coming coming to if in the financial market.

315
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:26,000
Oh, yeah. If he is going to start controlling investments and stock trades and everything as it is, like we've already seen trends where the things that are automated.

316
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:32,000
Can you imagine if I got into the BlackRock systems and zeroed all their stuff out?

317
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:37,000
Or what if what if there were there was false information?

318
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:47,000
And it all said, wow, this company is just coming in. It's valued at like one dollar, but their their total assets are being valued as thirty five billion.

319
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,000
And we only have ten thousand shares. So we're expecting us to go way up.

320
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:56,000
And they put like 80 percent of all of it into something. And it doesn't work out.

321
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:06,000
I think that's that's one of the beautiful things with humanity is because there's so many different people pulling in so many different areas that naturally in terms of the size of countries, our economics are very diverse.

322
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:11,000
So if any if one area fail sure to hurt everybody a little bit, but nobody loses.

323
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:18,000
I'm not going to say nobody, but very, very, very few people lose their house because one medical company or one industry, you know, right.

324
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:34,000
But that's not what if A.I. is able to make a convincing news segment that gets leaked out onto the Internet somewhere showing some catastrophic event happening that causes a stock market crash and it's not able to be rectified in time.

325
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,000
You know, now that you bring this up, this is something I wanted to bring up and I forgot about this.

326
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:44,000
Number one, that is terrifying. Number two, I have been seeing people on tech talk and Instagram.

327
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,000
So remember a few weeks ago how they did like the House Committee about aliens and stuff like that?

328
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,000
Well, that'll be a separate episode. I can be wrong.

329
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:59,000
But people then trying to make A.I. videos that were convincing about aliens in some of them, like they didn't fool me.

330
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,000
But I did a double take. I was like, what? Wait a minute.

331
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,000
And I'm somebody that grew up with the Internet. I'm Internet literate.

332
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:12,000
And then looking at the stuff that like some of my family members were posting and sharing with me, I was like, wait a minute, guys, this is not real.

333
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:20,000
But it's becoming so convincing that they're blurring the line between reality and what A.I. can make.

334
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,000
Yeah. Even just on the spot.

335
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:34,000
And that's what I'm concerned about is I think going forward as A.I. gets better, whatever reality is, is going to become just as fictional as the Internet.

336
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:39,000
Yeah. Where there's going to be this reality is just going to be shades of gray. It's going to be blurred lines.

337
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:44,000
And people aren't going to know what's really happened. Right. And something like that is far more devastating.

338
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Yeah. And with that, I can kind of segue into one last thing I wanted to say. Neuralink. There's a big push.

339
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,000
And I know that Daddy Musk wants us all to have this thing in our heads.

340
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:06,000
But my God, can you imagine if the majority of the population did have that thing in their head and they all got hacked

341
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:18,000
and then this fake thing got broadcast to all the neural link and everybody with the neural link just was compelled somehow.

342
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:24,000
And I know this sounds so tinfoil, Hattie. I don't want it to sound like that. But these are things that we do not know.

343
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:32,000
These are things we do not understand. But we're still going down that path.

344
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:37,000
If a neural link is hacked, how far could that hack go?

345
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:44,000
Well, yeah, I agree with you. That's the brain interface. Oh, yeah.

346
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,000
The thing is, can they override your hippocampus? Can they override certain parts of your brain?

347
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:54,000
Can it enable or disable your fear response? Can it change your thought process?

348
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:00,000
And I know it's saying it's just an input, not an output, meaning it's just going to feed you information, not take information.

349
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:06,000
First of all, I don't believe that for a second. Second of all, I like Elon. I think there's a lot of stuff he's doing that's good.

350
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:17,000
However, we have zero laws protecting because all of our laws are based on looking at the human body externally.

351
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:22,000
We've never looked at it internally. The idea that you have the right to your thoughts, your feelings, that kind of thing,

352
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:28,000
because it never had to be explained before, because obviously hundreds of years ago you have the right to your thoughts and your feelings.

353
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,000
Nobody cared. Right. But now here comes the question.

354
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Are you legally liable for the things you think about or how your body responds to something?

355
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:43,000
With information. I would be insane to tell them so quick.

356
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Not only that, but here's my second problem. I would be the angriest man on the planet if I had Neuralink

357
00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:00,000
and a fucking McDonald's ad at 3 a.m. in the morning. If somebody hacks that and just puts on some stupid freaking Christmas song,

358
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:09,000
if they put on Mariah Carey 24-7, I will be honest. I would be in the news for the worst reasons possible.

359
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:16,000
So I like the idea of Neuralink, I think, for certain people and for people that are like paraplegics,

360
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:21,000
and people that have medical issues and are veterans, people that really have been through shit.

361
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:27,000
I love the idea of it for a lot of ways. However, we have no legal protections, they have no legal rights.

362
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:36,000
And I hate to say it, no matter how much I believe in a company, every single one of them will share your personal and sell your personal information.

363
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:42,000
If it makes them a profit. Yes. And if Neuralink can listen to what your brain is doing,

364
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:47,000
if it's going to be able to understand you want to move your arm or move this or have the Internet open,

365
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:52,000
it has to be able to understand your thought process, at least to some extent, even a vague extent.

366
00:36:52,000 --> 00:37:01,000
So the core question becomes, if you think about doing something that's illegal, can you be held liable for it?

367
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:09,000
And will it be reported? Here's my other question to you. Because nobody thought you had?

368
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:14,000
What happens if you can't get health insurance because you think about murder all the time?

369
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:19,000
I'm being real. What happens if you think about suicide all the time?

370
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,000
What if you think about suicide all the time? You're not really suicidal, but there are some people like,

371
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:29,000
fuck it, what if I just jumped off the bridge? I don't know about you guys, I'm the kind of person that I am very hyperbolic.

372
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:36,000
So when I stub my toe, I should just kill myself. I think it's funny because it's just a minor inconvenience of something really stupid,

373
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,000
as opposed to the, hey, I should just off myself.

374
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:48,000
If you're having a week and you're driving to work and you're thinking, how bad could I do this and not hurt myself if I just drive the car into that centerpiece?

375
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:52,000
Yeah. Just like that tree looks like it needs a hug.

376
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:59,000
Like, it's just sometimes, you know, I just happen to be driving. I'm not really factoring that into my...

377
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:08,000
But I guess that's my question of like, if they're able to access what your brain is doing and then have an AI analyze it at all times,

378
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:16,000
are you then really able to have any rights? And I guess my question becomes, and this is more of like a philosophical question,

379
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,000
are you even still human at that point?

380
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:28,000
Right. Is that the point where we hit the singularity and we merge with AI to the point where we're no longer a human species?

381
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:32,000
We're a cyborg species?

382
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,000
Yeah, we're a mechanically dependent species where...

383
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:46,000
I guess the question becomes, if it changes, if that changes your idea of free will, then are you really the same?

384
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:55,000
And I don't know, it worries me because I see no guarantees. And don't get me wrong, there's a lot of good it can do, but I find it terrifying.

385
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,000
Oh yeah, absolutely.

386
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:06,000
And for the people that it helps, I hope it helps and I hope it does really well, but I wonder how many people it's also going to screw over and how many people are going to be hurt by it.

387
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,000
Right.

388
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:13,000
Especially, and mind you, this is in America where like, granted our legal system isn't the best, but at least to protect some people,

389
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:22,000
convert this into what happens in China when it gets reverse engineered and they basically lobotomize people and turn them into...

390
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,000
The best way to do it is don't complain.

391
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,000
Yeah, well I hate to...

392
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:39,000
But that concerns me because they have a history of taking anything that's built in the West and making a cheaper version of it and look at their automotive industry and not doing a good job at it.

393
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Right.

394
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:53,000
And that's terrifying because as soon as Tesla, as soon as Elon Musk puts out the Neuralink, give it a couple of years, they're going to say, oh, they're starting experiments and tests in China, and that is really what's going to be an issue.

395
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:58,000
Yeah, that's where we're going to get the first big issues from coming out of China.

396
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Because what happens to all the people that reject the surgery or the body rejects the surgery or the brain rejects it?

397
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:14,000
Are you just going to end up with a mass population of people that are half brain dead or essentially lobotomize or essentially have other issues?

398
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,000
Yeah, where's that going to go?

399
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,000
Yeah, and that's a country that's already collapsing under its own healthcare weight.

400
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:24,000
So, yeah, another topic for another day.

401
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:31,000
So, at the end of the day, there are two questions you have to ask when it comes to the AI field.

402
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,000
Are we as humans playing God?

403
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:42,000
And if so, are we capable of doing it right?

404
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,000
I'll speak on behalf of some humans saying we're really going to fucking things up.

405
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,000
Yes, we are.

406
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:53,000
So I would not bet on that.

407
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,000
We're trying to play with play God here.

408
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,000
Right.

409
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,000
And I feel like we're getting getting a little too close.

410
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Like, it's one thing if you had computers with limits and we had a lot more study and more stuff done, but we don't.

411
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:12,000
Yeah, I personally feel that we have opened Pandora's box on this thing and there is no closing it.

412
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:24,000
The genie is out of the lamp, there is no going back and the only thing we can do is go forward and try to have as good of a control as we can.

413
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:28,000
Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

414
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,000
Yeah, I hate to say it, but that that might be the case.

415
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,000
I mean, we'll see what happens.

416
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:38,000
And this is like obviously a topic that over the course of the future, we're going to touch back on if we see any updates.

417
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,000
But oh, yeah.

418
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,000
You know, it would be one of the reoccurring.

419
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:43,000
Hell, yeah.

420
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,000
I don't know. It's just for medical.

421
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,000
I think I agree with I think for medical and for industrial purposes.

422
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,000
Sure.

423
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:55,000
But when it comes to like recreational and other stuff, boy.

424
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,000
No, thank you.

425
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,000
Yeah, it's scary.

426
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,000
We can't play God.

427
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,000
We can't play God like now.

428
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,000
And I'm like, I'm sure there's people that are very pro and I understand why.

429
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,000
But I'm just not ready for the 3 a.m. ads.

430
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,000
I'm not ready.

431
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,000
I'm not ready to have my dreams be mine.

432
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,000
I saw that episode of Futurama.

433
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,000
I do not want underwear ads in my sleep.

434
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Thank you very much.

435
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:20,000
Oh, my God.

436
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:27,000
Oh, just the you ever have like I know you're in the age bracket where like you're up at like two or three.

437
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:32,000
I mean, you see like George Lopez and like all the other like random shows that were playing.

438
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,000
I am not that old, dammit.

439
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,000
And I don't have cable, so I don't have that shit on.

440
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,000
Oh, well, anyway.

441
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,000
So so so for the rest of us people like if you ever were up at like midnight or two a.m.

442
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:49,000
like this is like 10, 20 years ago and they always had like the late night shows that were playing that were just random.

443
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,000
I am really terrified of with a.i.

444
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:58,000
What happens if you leave YouTube running or you leave something going or God forbid you get one of those like creepy pasta.

445
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000
I told you about the subliminal messages.

446
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,000
Shit.

447
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,000
You thought I was kidding.

448
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,000
That would be.

449
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,000
Oh, my God.

450
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,000
Maybe maybe.

451
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,000
And then it switches over to subliminal mode.

452
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,000
Yeah, they're not schizophrenics.

453
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:20,000
The neural link just won't shut up.

454
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,000
That would be great bumper sticker sticker about schizophrenic.

455
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:28,000
I just have no.

456
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,000
Oh, shit.

457
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,000
Well, I think we've.

458
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:39,000
Hopefully terrified the shit out of some people by now.

459
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:44,000
For those people that like surviving and having their brain intact, I'm pretty sure they're they're they're scared.

460
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,000
For those people that want the neural link, I wish you the best of luck, though.

461
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,000
Yeah, I don't know if I would or not.

462
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:58,000
I guess after watching a few tens of thousands of people, I would maybe consider it if there was a good reason to.

463
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:03,000
One reason I would do it is if it allowed the option for a digital afterlife.

464
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,000
And that's something we will talk about in a future episode.

465
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,000
Oh, God, yeah, that's a yes.

466
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,000
Give me that.

467
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:14,000
Let me let me upload my consciousness into some games.

468
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,000
I think that is a sign of the discussion.

469
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,000
You and I are 100 percent on different sides.

470
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,000
Yes, sir.

471
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:25,000
Because I just knew I actually have to avoid talking about this or else I will just start going out of time.

472
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,000
Right.

473
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:36,000
I just want to be able to harass my my kids, my grandkids and my 50 generations down relatives into infinity.

474
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:46,000
Why do I have the feeling I would hear the phrase that I quote and I quote, Dad, why is grandpa tea bagging my dead body on Halo?

475
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,000
Like, why do I feel like something like that?

476
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,000
Oh, yes.

477
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Yes, indeed.

478
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,000
I would be that person.

479
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,000
She's.

480
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:06,000
Oh, God, that's in the future with video games and everything else, especially with VR, the way things are going, it's going to get weird.

481
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,000
I hope so.

482
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:09,000
I'm ready for it.

483
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:14,000
Bring on the weird.

484
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:15,000
Oh, my God.

485
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:19,000
Well, I guess that that pretty much wraps up at least the ice.

486
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:25,000
Yeah, I think I think we pretty much covered everything we wanted to.

487
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:30,000
And definitely let us know in the comments, let us know in the reactions to this episode.

488
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,000
I think we always like to hear interaction from people.

489
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:36,000
So let us know if there are topics, issues, concerns you guys want us to address.

490
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,000
We have a long list of topics.

491
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,000
Yes, we have a list.

492
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:54,000
But also, if you'd like to send us an email, now we consume at Gmail dot com, hit us up there, send us your suggestions, your feedback, your topic ideas, anything you'd like to share with us.

493
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:59,000
We'll definitely be working and I'll be getting to the social media and the other stuff and you know, we'll be starting to trickle things out there.

494
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:03,000
We're just looking for some reactions, you know, let us know what you all think.

495
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:09,000
I'm still working on outro music and other stuff that will eventually be put in as well.

496
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Any other anything else you have?

497
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,000
Thanks for dropping by. Hope you enjoyed it.

498
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,000
And we hope to see you back.

499
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:22,000
Absolutely. Thank you all for being here. We will catch you all on the next episode.

500
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:41,000
Hell yeah.
