This week that almost meant more
0:03
than it has at other times
0:05
as high wireless, precarious feeling that
0:07
we're just you know, balancing on
0:10
the edge of insanity. I had
0:12
experienced really sort of shift your
0:14
shifted and I would say altered
0:17
my thinking. perhaps about the entire
0:19
future. As I understand it, it
0:21
actually started out somewhat simpli. I
0:24
had a friend that are you
0:26
know absorb showed me a new
0:28
ai technology that's out. There that
0:30
write songs. Ah, it's called So New
0:33
and they had plunged to song. Let
0:35
me show you how this works because
0:37
I put in a song just to
0:39
give you a sense of where this
0:42
sort of conversation happened. I might have
0:44
me barry press laws with you. You
0:46
type in W W.so no.com and then
0:48
you create a song And in this
0:51
case I said well let's create a
0:53
song. Please create a theme song for
0:55
The High Wire with Dell Be Free
0:57
in an alternative rock style sound hit.
1:00
Create. This is in real time. This is how
1:02
long it takes. Bomb.
1:06
There. It is. I have two options
1:08
for the song. let me play one
1:10
of those for, you know, Where
1:18
it is hard to. Break
1:21
through the. Body.
2:54
All. Right now I'm sure many of
2:56
you are commenting as we speak
2:58
right now whether you think it's
3:00
a good song or a bad
3:02
song more if would actually fit
3:04
this show but it actually triggers
3:06
something different in mean this is
3:08
a conversation been involved in first
3:10
of all is pretty good. Is
3:12
it great it when I go
3:14
out and buy that album? I
3:16
don't know but I feel like
3:18
the moment I listen to that
3:20
song or anything that this ai
3:22
generates, I literally just watched millions.
3:24
Of jobs in jingle
3:26
writing, commercial writing, music
3:29
writing for at least
3:31
advertising were just wiped
3:33
off the planet. As
3:35
we know it I don't know how
3:37
anyone in that business is gonna be
3:39
a look compete with that. It made
3:41
me reflect back to you know that
3:43
the stories of the old legend like
3:45
John Henry for those view maybe I'm
3:47
dating myself but a story about a
3:49
man who could run a pick better
3:51
than anyone else but then all of
3:54
a sudden same machine second burrow through
3:56
a mountain and he raises the proceeds,
3:58
pick acting and as the lead. It
4:00
goes, he wins, gets to the other
4:02
side, and then basically drops dead. I
4:04
guess have a heart attack was a
4:07
great story to raise a kid. Really,
4:09
you know, full of joy. But if
4:11
I realized in this moment this is
4:13
what we're talking about, we're talking about.
4:16
We have just entered a space now
4:18
where we are actually now in competition
4:20
with machines. Let's just look at this
4:23
for a moment. In In and I
4:25
come from Hollywood as a sub is
4:27
probably why it's thrice very closely to
4:29
me. But what business is going
4:32
to hire an advertising agency to get
4:34
a musician? If a musician's gotta go
4:36
and try and get this jobs or
4:38
what to write a jingle for Mcdonalds
4:40
or whatever it is, well you're going
4:42
to compete with the machines. Go ahead
4:44
right? You're single and let's hear it.
4:46
Well first of all, if they wrote
4:48
it in a few hours that would
4:50
be amazing. Twenty four hours that they
4:52
would mean you're and that's top. Probably
4:55
ten and delivering a decent Zingales. But
4:57
then you've gotta go to what a
4:59
studio. If you're really good you can
5:01
record the synthesizer, the drums all yourself.
5:03
or you have to hire a band.
5:05
It's this machine. Just did that in
5:07
ten seconds. And if I don't like
5:09
isn't so you know us to be
5:11
a Reggae vs. Gimme a Metallic A
5:13
version or whatever you want to say.
5:15
it's ten seconds later you have a
5:18
new options and then I'm sure we
5:20
can cut and paste. Do see with
5:22
this is going in, this is just
5:24
one space that we're looking at. When.
5:26
I heard the song and I listen to
5:28
it. That night I laid as a try
5:31
to get it out of my mind because
5:33
frankly it was kind of techy. I stared
5:35
at the ceiling. And try to
5:37
imagine. What? Future
5:39
is there for my children.
5:42
What? Is it going to? be? How
5:44
many jobs as is going to take? How
5:46
much as really started thinking how am I
5:49
going to train them for what jobs should
5:51
they be going for I thought about my
5:53
son who talks a lot about wanted to
5:55
be a lawyer when he grows up if
5:57
he's a lawyer when he grows up with.
6:00
We're gonna be a I will think about
6:02
what a I is A Ice is going
6:04
to go through all of the President's it's
6:06
ever been set, is going to look at
6:08
all the legal issues that are out there,
6:10
how they've been decided and then ultimately right
6:12
a case. who's gonna write a better taste
6:14
than a on. And then if
6:17
you think about of how long before
6:19
our society just decides hey you got
6:21
this totally unbiased a I thinking machines
6:23
that can go in and just decides
6:25
who's got the better case, how long
6:27
before a eyes are judges? I know
6:29
I'm jumping out there, but I really
6:31
don't think it's that far away. Look
6:33
with the song Justice The High Why
6:36
read theme for the High Wire it
6:38
knows what I talked about and nose
6:40
or talk about laws is not even
6:42
making it a bad thing. It's all
6:44
my saw that one a theme. Songs
6:46
is talking about how I'm breaking down the
6:48
webs that spawns out there. I mean it's
6:51
not all of this in seconds off the
6:53
internet. Immediately off based on all the work
6:55
that I've done, said you put in the
6:57
higher why would Dell Big real talk about
6:59
my past two and things that are going
7:02
on in that song. And.
7:04
So it really made me reflect on Sunday
7:06
that I saw Elon Musk say that I
7:08
say we even played on the show and
7:11
you know it was disturbing at the moment.
7:13
The let's revisit. This is what are you
7:15
on must set. If you seem
7:17
any rate of advanced with in a I
7:20
phone. We will be left
7:22
behind by a locked. Room.
7:25
And. So then we could be I'm.
7:28
Going up annoyances but the been
7:30
even the benign situation. If you
7:32
have some ocean ultra intelligence ai
7:34
we would be. You know,
7:38
So. Them so far below them in
7:40
intelligence that it would be reviewed like a
7:42
pet is Heather says like a pack a
7:44
terrorist attack Iraq after every like the house
7:46
and. Ilan. The cat.
7:49
I. Guess I thought when I was listen
7:52
to that and he has been very outspoken
7:54
so you better start regulating. This is gonna
7:56
be more dangerous than nuclear energy ever was.
7:58
This is something that is. Landing so
8:00
fast Know is paying attention to it
8:02
and when we talked about on the
8:04
show last year I guess I felt
8:06
like there was some runway ahead. We
8:08
could start thinking about it but now
8:10
I have an Ai that can wipe
8:12
out all the positions in. Here's what
8:14
I save really bothers me to personally
8:16
is I've said to people about you
8:18
know the future of The one difference
8:20
is that we have heart. We have
8:22
a sense of blood pumping through our
8:24
base something that that I don't think
8:26
the a computer since Hampshire or hard
8:28
our energy. But then I listen that
8:30
song and I would have to admit
8:32
to even though it's maybe a little
8:34
bit cz it does give you that
8:37
feeling it does seem to make your
8:39
hair got like ah man i wanna
8:41
watch that show which is everything a
8:43
theme song should do. Couldn't make you
8:45
have empathy could it makes you feel
8:47
could make you feel sad. Want.
8:49
To try typing in. Write.
8:52
A song about what it's like
8:54
to be a I and this
8:56
is what we heard. He's. It's
8:58
easy to. So.
10:05
I would guess that for some you could
10:07
say I feel a little empathetic towards a
10:09
I. Pour. A I want to
10:11
feel, It wants to touch. folks.
10:14
It's about to touch everything that we know.
10:16
In fact, it is as we speak. Now.
10:19
A eyes you know as as we
10:21
could argue has been searching and listen
10:23
to everything we've said and has been
10:26
set loose. On. The world. How.
10:28
Long before it comes to the
10:31
realization that those globalist leaders have
10:33
been talking about. That is a
10:35
world full of useless eaters. That's
10:37
how they refer to them. Some.
10:40
Will say Well I guess it'll make time
10:42
for all of us to get back to
10:44
what we love, the hang out with our
10:47
kids as those somehow governments around the world
10:49
will just say we're all going to get
10:51
paid to sit on our couches, eat popcorn
10:53
and enjoy the finer things in life while
10:55
Ai runs around working for us. I.
10:58
Have a hard time believing that that's how this
11:00
is going to work. And. I'm not
11:02
sure what the answer is and a
11:04
being honest with you were going to
11:07
get deeper into this with Jeffrey Jackson
11:09
and minutes and I liked to have
11:11
a lot of hope and say here's
11:13
the solution But what I will say
11:15
is this while we're watching these horrific
11:18
more as be ways around the world
11:20
and we're just you know gazing at
11:22
a while worth having discussions about transgender
11:24
in children Were getting panicked about all
11:27
of those things behind us. There was
11:29
an intelligence that is about to wipe
11:31
out. Virtually every job
11:34
we know. I.
11:36
Suppose maybe it won't be able to fix
11:38
your car or do your plumbing. but if
11:40
it has thoughts, if it needs to be
11:43
written down, Odds are as
11:45
going to do it a lot
11:47
faster than you are and probably
11:49
well enough to not needs you.
11:52
We. Better get on top of this is
11:54
something when it's and to detract and I
11:56
guarantee you have already had conversations with Air
11:58
and Siri this week. On what types
12:01
of four years we need to do,
12:03
what types of laws are in place,
12:05
what types of regulations were is is
12:07
going where you to get deeply involved
12:09
with it So. These are the
12:11
conversations that we have. This is what's
12:13
going on in my mind. I worried
12:15
about the future of our children. We
12:18
talk about medical health all the time.
12:20
But what are the sets? Is that
12:22
Existential threats? Is it's Russia and China
12:24
and war? Or is it the fact
12:26
that all this face recognition cameras everywhere
12:29
I go are now being hooked up
12:31
The Ai which is now looking at
12:33
all the patterns of my movement, all
12:35
the things I say, all the things
12:37
I buy, All the people I hang
12:40
out. With. How
12:42
much longer? Will. We have any
12:44
freedom at all.
