this is the primal scream of a dying regime pray for our enemies because we're going medieval on
00:00:10.560
these people here's not got a free shot all these networks lying about the people the people have
00:00:17.160
had a belly full of it i know you don't like hearing that i know you try to do everything
00:00:20.920
in the world to stop that but you're not going to stop it it's going to happen and where do
00:00:24.300
people like that go to share the big line mega media i wish in my soul i wish that any of these
00:00:32.020
people had a conscience ask yourself what is my task and what is my purpose if that answer is to
00:00:39.580
save my country this country will be saved war room here's your host stephen k band
00:00:47.480
is there wiggle room that we're going to see at the 11th hour do you does this time feel
00:00:57.580
different jake yeah not it doesn't feel different there probably is wiggle room at the 11th hour
00:01:03.680
and that that is let's pass a short-term funding bill that allows us to keep going and keep
00:01:09.360
negotiating to the extent they are negotiating until november 15th but here's the the reality
00:01:14.480
that mccarthy faces katie he the the right believes and they say this that if you only hold
00:01:20.880
out for long enough that you will get the other side to cave we have years of evidence now that
00:01:26.520
that's complete nonsense there's no reason that that that joe biden is going to accept a whole host
00:01:33.560
of republican provisions especially when he has house democrats senate democrats and senate
00:01:38.200
republicans on his side mccarthy and house republicans are on an island and if they don't see that
00:01:44.140
by now then they're not operating in reality now all of that being said if they were smart here
00:01:50.680
there is a deal that they could had uh that includes a border security element with a full year funding
00:01:57.180
package there are democrats who tell us all the time we want to do more on the border that is something
00:02:02.600
that's doable unfortunately what the far right and the freedom caucus they're not conservatives
00:02:07.360
necessarily but the freedom caucus and the far right want is capitulation from democrats and things
00:02:13.600
that are not achievable and when you want things that are not achievable you're just wasting all of
00:02:17.940
our time so and by the way the scary the scary thing katie just one more thing here if the government
00:02:23.160
shuts down there is usually one discrete item that everybody wants that will get them out of the
00:02:27.740
shutdown i don't know what that item is here used to be obamacare used to be the border wall i don't
00:02:32.500
know what it is it's a million things and it changes every day so i just don't know this is not heading
00:02:36.980
for a good a good space if you want a september and october uh free of trauma yeah all right let's
00:02:43.040
talk about the other big news on the hill and that is um the news that senator mitt romney is not going
00:02:48.380
to seek a second term in his announcement garrett he talked about how he's going to be up there in age
00:02:53.260
and it's time to pass on the baton to new leadership he also pointedly called out both former
00:02:59.080
president donald trump and current president joe biden yeah that's right romney is 76 he says in his
00:03:06.260
video uh message here announcing this decision that he doesn't want to be in his mid-80s when he
00:03:10.680
retires and he thinks it's time for new leadership he goes on to say that he doesn't think biden has
00:03:15.400
the willingness and trump the ability or the willingness to make some of the kind of big
00:03:19.940
decisions that need to be made in the future to protect the future for his children his
00:03:24.660
grandchildren and so forth he talks about having you know had a very productive uh term in the senate
00:03:30.120
and certainly he was a pivotal figure on every major issue that came through the senate as kind of
00:03:35.800
a swing vote between the parties he's the only republican to have voted for both of donald trump's
00:03:40.020
impeachments he became kind of the conscience of the old school republican pre-trump party in his
00:03:47.020
term at the senate and now he's going to go home and i suspect get very bored uh for the first time in
00:03:52.940
a long time not with a major public service job or seeking one so who replaces him garrett well there's
00:03:58.920
already a primary underway in utah there's a maga candidate who's a mayor of a town in utah who's been
00:04:04.280
very much trying to scare up the support of donald trump and his allies also the speaker of the
00:04:08.680
house in utah had kind of been keeping his powder dry indicating that he might get into the race if
00:04:13.400
romney decided not to seek re-election i suspect that'll be at least the start of the contours
00:04:18.060
there utah a safe uh republican state obviously that was very safe if romney had made his way through
00:04:23.980
the primary i don't know if democrats would have even fielded a serious candidate against him
00:04:27.580
they may try if a maga candidate gets through a primary here but the primary will be the show to watch
00:04:32.800
uh in utah going forward garrett hake jake sherman gentlemen thank you very much you know contrary
00:04:37.440
to a lot of expectations i enjoy my work in the senate a good deal the last few years have been
00:04:43.700
particularly productive as i was able to help lead and negotiate the bipartisan infrastructure law
00:04:49.000
a comprehensive china strategy process religious liberty protections a compromised gun safety law
00:04:56.700
the electoral count act reform and emergency covid relief funding i was also able to help secure key
00:05:04.360
utah priorities including funding for hill air force base and its program to modernize our nuclear deterrent
00:05:10.580
as well as funding for wildfire prevention water infrastructure rural broadband removal of uranium
00:05:18.320
tailings from moab expansion and restoration of our highway and transit infrastructure
00:05:23.680
and federal studies to save the great salt lake i've spent my last 25 years in public service of one kind or another
00:05:33.000
at the end of another term i'd be in my mid-80s frankly it's time for a new generation of leaders
00:05:42.120
they're the ones that need to make the decisions that will shape the world they will be living in
00:05:47.720
now we face critical challenges mounting national debt climate change and the ambitious authoritarians
00:05:56.540
of russia and china neither president biden nor former president trump are leading their party to
00:06:04.380
confront those issues on deficits and debt both men refuse to address entitlements even though they
00:06:11.200
know that this represents two-thirds of federal spending donald trump calls global warming a hoax
00:06:17.320
and president biden offers feel-good solutions that make no difference to the global climate
00:06:22.880
on china president biden under invests in the military and president trump under invests in our alliances
00:06:30.880
political motivations too often impede the solutions that these challenges demand
00:06:37.460
the next generation of leaders must take america to the next stage of global leadership
00:06:43.820
while i'm not running for re-election i'm not retiring from the fight i'll be your united states
00:06:51.360

00:07:51.120
someone in the next generation uh president trump excuse me president biden when he was running said
00:07:56.020
he was a transitional figure to the next generation well time to transition uh david ignatius this morning
00:08:01.740
made a strong argument uh that we should see that kind of a change i think both parties would be far

00:14:50.540
the establishment's bracket next in the war room
00:14:53.580
the former kgb colonel vladimir putin who by the way is no friend of the united states
00:15:04.680
called the u.s dollar's drop in dominance objective and irreversible during the recent
00:15:10.600
brics conference in south africa as brazil russia india china and south africa formally agreed to use
00:15:18.580
local currencies instead of the u.s dollar it's the first shoe to fall we call this

00:16:38.120
in the senate a good deal the last few years have been particularly productive as i was able to help
00:16:44.040
lead and negotiate the bipartisan infrastructure law a comprehensive china strategy process religious
00:16:51.220
liberty protections a compromised gun safety law the electoral count act reform and emergency
00:16:57.940
covid relief funding i was also able to help secure key utah priorities including funding for hill
00:17:04.960
air force base and its program hang on the reason the reason i had to play that again my phone was
00:17:10.400
blowing up and here at the war is blowing up people were saying the worst list of liberal accomplishments
00:17:15.960
ever and others were saying bannon you've actually found a way to top the obnoxiousness of morning
00:17:22.300
mika in your cold opens in the morning by mitch romney go through so mayor staggs you saw at the
00:17:28.920
beginning all the massive spending the reason we have the inflation this morning and two trillion
00:17:33.460
dollar deficit mitch is whining about the mitch whining about the uh the the deficit his he supported
00:17:42.540
the five trillion dollars of additional spending from from from biden he's been biden's one of his
00:17:48.080
biggest cheerleaders in the senate uh he's caused this is that a list of accomplishments that folks
00:17:53.540
in in the great state of utah those great patriots out there would be proud of no not at all not at
00:17:59.460
all we've traveled the state like i said and and that's the one thing that has really really gotten
00:18:04.380
utahns is the spending it's out of control it's caused crushing inflation on families hundreds and
00:18:10.420
hundreds of dollars a month more in just average goods they need to purchase groceries everything else
00:18:16.220
and mitt romney is at the core of it this establishment that has just voted in he hasn't
00:18:22.240
seen a spending bill he hasn't liked and it just as a mayor for 10 years i've had to balance my budget
00:18:29.400
we've done it we've provided responsible government that's my track record i've actually cut taxes
00:18:35.120
that's what utahns want they want responsible government they need adults in dc people that are going to
00:18:41.340
push back against that 33 trillion dollars in debt that is the number one thing that is just so
00:18:49.400
so frustrating to utahns and and we're going to give that to them we're going to give them
00:18:55.080
somebody that will truly stand up say no and hold the line if if you look at what the pragmatic
00:19:03.660
hard-working folks in utah have done to create that great state do you think they've learned the
00:19:09.280
lesson of maybe they don't need any more northeast uh liberals representing them in the united states
00:19:15.680
senate you think the good pragmatic folks in utah upon further review maybe feel that was a that was
00:19:22.120
not the best thing absolutely i mean i've heard the expression as i've been traveling around fool me
00:19:27.080
once you know shame on you fool me twice shame on me and i think they have learned their lesson uh look
00:19:32.540
they know we need uh what i say is an authentic utah i'm authentically utah from elementary school to
00:19:38.720
graduate school i've been here i've raised my family here i've operated businesses i've taken
00:19:42.540
a company public i've operated to run my city for 10 years that's what they want someone who's
00:19:47.160
authentically utah and consistently conservative that's what they'll they'll get in me they know
00:19:52.740
that that's why our coalition continues to build and they see it there's going to be these other
00:19:56.900
establishment candidates you know we have our speaker of the house that was mentioned there on msnbc
00:20:01.360
two next to me as the maga candidate uh this other one the speaker is more of the establishment
00:20:06.360
uh candidate and and utahns i think are tired of that they don't want the establishment they need
00:20:13.040
somebody who has exhibited backbone that's going to stand up and say no because boy we need that now
00:20:19.720
more than ever mayor staggs uh you know they're coming for you so how do people follow you where they
00:20:27.060

00:21:18.060
romney's attention we got him on the run we chased him out chased him out
00:21:24.400
i'm gonna get into my theory of the case later mit romney maniacally focused maniacally focused
00:21:31.160
on keeping donald trump from returning to the white house he believes he's on a divine mission to do
00:21:36.260
that uh there's so much going on the hill right now i mean it's a firefight and and and and the maga
00:21:43.660
a group up there the six the 20 even some of the people in the 70 that voted for the uh uh to not do
00:21:50.560
the debt deal it's a firestorm and and the message today is that hey uh mccarthy the beginning of the
00:21:56.760
impeachment's necessary i'm gonna get into that in the second hour i got gaffney faddis um coming on
00:22:03.040
uh with uh with uh kevin freeman to talk about that to talk about what biden's done in the process of
00:22:09.900
the impeachment but they're saying hey that does not take away from this firestorm of the budget
00:22:16.820
because that's everything because with the country the bottoms from the country remember to get that
00:22:21.760
folks you have the leverage you're the drivers of the action now how did that happen part of it was
00:22:27.980
the census and get the redistricting that was appropriate and you when the redistricting fights
00:22:33.460
came up it was this audience that put the shoulder wheel in back of a young man that brought to
00:22:38.320
everybody's attention that's alex degras alex uh mark alias these guys look our enemies are smart
00:22:44.660
and they're tough and you just got to understand that people say oh they're dumb no they're not
00:22:47.660
they're very crafty they're very cunning they're they are all over this redistricting and i think
00:22:52.740
that people are waking up to the fact that this is going to be a battle royale even to keep the house
00:22:58.620
as we have it right now for what they're doing so politico has had a bunch of stories in new york
00:23:02.740
times give us an update of what's happening are we are we getting smoked in courts but state
00:23:07.040
legislatures are fighting back is that where we are right now yeah there's certainly a big divide
00:23:12.140
you know we support state legislators by and large right and we talked about the previous
00:23:16.160
supreme court case that did not go in our favor that was sort of the state legislator absolute
00:23:20.500
theory right that plays into election integrity as well and so we want state legislators we think
00:23:25.740
the constitution's clear on that but certainly there's been issues state courts we've got some
00:23:29.440
federal courts a lot of this is going to come down to the supreme court so there's a lot of narratives
00:23:34.120
a lot of media some of it a little bit of smoke a lot of it very concerning i think you've got 12
00:23:39.440
seats steve at a maximum sort of either which way six different states in play and you know steve we
00:23:46.460
won the popular vote in 2022 three million more votes for republican house candidates we flipped
00:23:52.760
number of seats and took control of congress and that's why they are melting down and going after
00:23:58.220
house republicans in one of the most vicious ways possible which is to steal our vote away in a
00:24:02.860
courtroom um and that's what's playing out and i think people need to be aware lock in talk to their
00:24:08.100
state legislators get involved with your local war party georgia south carolina louisiana florida
00:24:13.480
ohio north carolina looks great we've got new york all of it on the line and possibly more in a
00:24:18.740
domino effect for years to come oh but they're coming real quickly go back to the supreme court
00:24:25.220
because we said at the time sure and quite frankly we thought we had that as a lock and we got screwed
00:24:30.000
but walk back how this all started to tumble from that supreme court ruling
00:24:33.880
sure so we would the supreme court making the case that the constitution is clear that you know
00:24:39.640
state legislators should be you know drawing these lines and and or handling these issues regarding
00:24:45.020
elections apportionment and different things like that and what we don't want necessarily is these
00:24:50.140
courts these special masters these um panels and and all this other stuff as well as election
00:24:56.540
integrity issues and they ruled that um they're not absolute as opposed to state courts and so
00:25:02.320
what's happened is you've got these really empowered state courts many of which are democrat
00:25:07.200
or left-leaning or even worse steve sort of rhinos vicious rhinos that have ruled against us whether
00:25:13.740
that was in ohio north carolina previously both of which we flipped and made progress on but now
00:25:18.680
you're looking at wisconsin which is heating up of course and we talked about the impeachment effort
00:25:23.480
that's on the table and being discussed there these have grave consequences and i think as a party
00:25:28.880
we're looking at how do we beef down ballot how do we look at these court cases you know these we
00:25:33.280
have to win these state courts and it's different in every state but it's really a bizarre thing
00:25:37.520
uh so we're right now where do people uh where do people focus brother the whole south this whole
00:25:47.300
thing is chaotic right now and it's not going to stop because mark alliance smells blood so they're
00:25:52.820
going to try to do this in a bunch of other states so so where should people to go get the information
00:25:57.600
from you guys because you you've been given the warning early on hey new york's going to be in play
00:26:01.820
because the guys up there don't care those judges up there i mean that place is that place is the
00:26:05.860
marxist the marxist uh you know island but now it's spread all over the country but i want people
00:26:11.840
because we're going to fight back on this right now we're fighting the debt thing we got the
00:26:15.840
impeachment we got so much but i want to put this on people's radar that this is happening and it's
00:26:21.020
going to come and it's going to come hard and it's going to come fast and if we don't shut this down now
00:26:25.860
it's going to make holding the house extremely difficult and they understand that they can't
00:26:31.220
out vote us so they're going to try to outmaneuver us where do people go alex to get super smart on
00:26:36.100
this well i'm certainly going to make it my party where the party's kind of looking at we're sort of
00:26:41.500
organizing getting ready for a counter offensive looking at filing counter suits and things like
00:26:45.520
that so certainly my social media feed will have some updates as well as you know national republicans
00:26:50.420
are getting involved and so we don't the apparatuses we're still building out i mean we're catching
00:26:55.340
up to how advanced and technical the democrats are at this sort of lawfare situation i know that's a
00:27:01.360
big topic of the show of course which expands way outside of just the redistricting situation so
00:27:06.340
it's a little bit of a hole in our end so war room's been filling that hole and so certainly my social
00:27:11.120
media we're going to have some updates from national republicans as we sort of okay move this
00:27:15.420
to the supreme court on a few fronts okay we're going to get okay i want the audience to understand
00:27:20.800
we're on this okay last thing didn't they just put obama as the chair of this deal they understand
00:27:26.960
how important this is obama who's doesn't come off the beach for anything this is when he's coming
00:27:31.220
back for yeah and so let me exactly right and let me explain how they have their redistricting it's a
00:27:37.960
trust steve it's a land trust and and to be frank republicans actually we we sort of mimicked how they
00:27:43.020
had that set up it is a land trust in virginia it is unlimited dark corporate money we have no idea
00:27:48.880
what's flooding in there's no way to know what's going on this thing is as far as we are so we
00:27:53.480
don't know we don't know hang on i want i want i want you hang on i'm gonna hold you through the
00:27:58.040
break just real quick question could there be foreign money could there be foreign money we don't
00:28:02.880
know piling into this absolutely absolutely we have no idea the only ones that know are the irs
00:28:09.020
and so that's the deal but i want to get into that trust situation because it's complicated
00:28:14.240
you okay you're in the war room you stick there we got new mexico big victory in new mexico at least
00:28:21.000
temporarily we're gonna go to pasadena california we got joe allen we're packed and next hour even

courtroom why is this important why should anyone care ma'am hi yeah thanks for having me um we are
00:33:31.720
in pasadena california in front of the pasadena courthouse for adam vena who has been um mired in
00:33:38.940
the family courts he's lost custody of his now five-year-old son because his ex is transitioning
00:33:45.900
their son to a girl um since he was two years old so adam has not seen or held his son in over two
00:33:52.860
years and so today's court hearing um they just got out of it and um we just got word that uh judge
00:34:00.520
harvey silberman just recused himself from the case which is a really good thing for us
00:34:05.520
okay i'm gonna ask you why it's a victory but you got it our our audience's head is blowing up
00:34:11.480
already i want you to go back and give me a minute it's a two-year-old boy and his wife is allowing a
00:34:18.000
boy at the age of two to transition and now the kid's five the little boy's five and the father has
00:34:23.220
had no contact ma'am correct yeah started at two she started putting him in dresses started calling him
00:34:29.480
a girl started asking his preschool and all the other parents and other children to call
00:34:35.480
this little boy a girl who now goes by the name violet and is being addressed as a as a girl so
00:34:43.040
has socially transitioned um and he has lost custody and has not had any contact in over two years
00:34:49.040
correct seek why what is your organization why you guys avoid the great eli crane contacting me
00:34:56.880
personally and eli only gets to me when it's important says you got to get on top of this
00:35:00.560
that seek is amazing what's your organization why have you chosen this battle to fight
00:35:05.640
so i'm the founder of mom and dad army we're a survivor-led organization and we um are fighting
00:35:13.280
to stop the war on children um what we are seeing is an outright attack on all of our children from
00:35:19.920
every institution we can think of the education system the medical system big tech um you can go on
00:35:27.920
and on and so we are working across the country and even around the world we have chapters in
00:35:33.220
germany and australia and um the uk um to really address what's actually going on um and adam's case
00:35:40.000
it's just a canary in the coal mine with the new legislation that has just passed ab 957 here in
00:35:45.880
california um it's going to open the floodgates for the family court system to be weaponized to take
00:35:52.140
custody away from the protective parent and give full custody to the abusive parent um and also charge
00:35:59.260
them with child abuse so that's what we're looking at here and we're trying to warn not only
00:36:04.280
california um but the country that this is this is coming and it's coming fast
00:36:08.760
real quickly why did why did judge uh what silverstein why did he recuse himself and why
00:36:15.200
is that a victory i wasn't in the courtroom so i don't have an update for you on exactly why he
00:36:20.420
recused himself adam has been wanting a different judge for this case because he has not been favored
00:36:25.320
in any of the rulings um you know obviously because he's lost custody um and so that's that's a good
00:36:31.700
thing but i think the judge has ties to some very interesting um people um within within the court
00:36:38.360
system i can imagine uh uh seek you're doing god's work where do people go to find out more about you
00:36:45.900

00:37:19.260
let's go victory out there got it victory begets victory let's go to uh let's go to brian festa
00:37:28.500
in new mexico sir what happened today in the court on this tyrannical dictatorship they've turned the
00:37:34.600
great state of new mexico with these great patriots out there this governor's out of control what happened
00:37:39.080
new mexico it's a great day for all of americans because the governor uh lost in this hearing
00:37:49.040
uh the judge uh ruled in our favor district court judge david uh urias ruled in our favor
00:37:55.440
uh and granted us the temporary restraining order it's initially just a 14-day order so it's a
00:38:01.420
it's a temporary win for now but um he conceded that we would likely win on the merits of our claim
00:38:08.880
which is uh one of the main reasons it's one of the main things you have to consider in a temporary
00:38:13.000
state restraining order or a preliminary injunction situation uh and so he did uh agree
00:38:18.860
that bruin was controlling here the bruin decision from the united states supreme court uh last year
00:38:23.780
and uh ruled in our favor and said that this is most likely going to be ruled unconstitutional
00:38:28.960
we have another hearing scheduled for october 3rd so even though it's only supposed to be 14 days
00:38:33.700
the court can extend that for good cause and in this case the governor's attorney and one of the
00:38:37.860
other attorneys weren't going to be available on the date he was going to schedule it for so he said
00:38:42.280
for good cause he will extend it to october 3rd so this ban actually is going to remain in place
00:38:47.120
more than 14 days uh or excuse me this stay of the governor's ban is going to remain in place
00:38:52.040
uh until october 3rd at least one one one one of the lawyers not in the courtroom i guess was the
00:38:58.240
attorney general a democrat a progressive democrat said i can't do this against the constitution am i
00:39:03.520
correct on that yes raul torres who is a democrat and actually served in the obama department of
00:39:10.340
justice um actually came out yesterday and sent her a letter and said i'm not showing up to court i'm not
00:39:15.480
defending you normally i worked in state government for years normally the ag uh will defend uh the
00:39:21.460
state but in this case i guess the governor had to use her own in-house counsel uh in the governor's
00:39:27.400
office and was not able to have the ag defender and good for him because um he swore he swore an oath
00:39:32.880
not oath to uphold and defend the constitution takes precedence over any uh obligation to defend the
00:39:38.220
governor in court brian uh how do people follow this this is a big win but it's a temporary win
00:39:45.260
this is a gun grab uh this is the takeaway people's second amendment rights it's outrageous
00:39:50.380
at least a federal judge decided hey look you're probably gonna lose the merits but i'm gonna give
00:39:54.360
a stay i the it's told the governor she's gonna lose some of the merits i want people to stay up
00:39:59.080
to speed on this because this if this if she wins there trust me they're gonna be 10 of these
00:40:04.440
governors immediately going to do the same thing so tell me where do people follow you
00:40:07.960
oh absolutely i'm thinking of someone like gretchen whitmer who would love to do this in michigan right
00:40:13.360
um all over the kathy hochold ned lamont and back in connecticut it'll happen everywhere uh we the

00:42:44.600
element here is that it was closed door this was yet again another major meeting of the billionaires
00:42:52.000
who are driving the ai revolution speaking behind closed doors to the politicians who ostensibly are
00:42:58.380
supposed to be representing us in order to mitigate or perhaps god willing perhaps even stop some of the
00:43:04.840
effects of this um you know josh holly called this out and he is absolutely correct that this is not
00:43:11.380
in any sense it's not even pretending to be democracy and uh the real key for him was data protection
00:43:19.720
these people need to be grilling these companies what are they doing with our data uh that's very
00:43:26.160
very important i couldn't agree more but the real issue what do they want to do with these ai systems
00:43:32.700
what do they want these systems to do to us um when we come back i think that we'll get a very good
00:43:39.480
sense of where musk thinks this is going and also a top google chief yeah i want it we're going to do
00:43:46.940
that we're gonna take a short break but even musk when he throws out at the end you know uh i'm worried
00:43:53.340
about civilizational risk now as much as i dislike elon musk's activities i do give him credit for being
00:44:01.440
quite a smart young man when he says civilizational risk people should wake up to that and then the
00:44:08.140
question from from the reporter the first question mr musk is ai going to kill us all i quite frankly
00:44:15.260
i think it's one of the logical questions on people's mind and he says there should be some
00:44:19.580
regulations what do you mean there should we know there should be some regulations

patriot mobile.com slash bannon or call 878 patriot hello everyone in shanghai well i think artificial
00:46:19.400
intelligence is going to play a very profound role in the future of human evolution and civilization in
00:46:25.460
general we are seeing um obviously an explosion in digital compute the ratio of machine versus
00:46:32.560
biological intelligence keeps increasing that means over time human intelligence will represent a smaller and
00:46:38.240
smaller percentage of total thinking capacity on earth relative to machines uh this is really a
00:46:45.000
profound change but the trends are over time that we're headed to a world where there are more robots
00:46:50.900
than humans but this is very different from artificial general intelligence artificial general intelligence
00:46:56.680
is an is a computer intelligence that is smarter than than all humans at everything at some point
00:47:02.620
potentially millions of of the most advanced computers all working together in a data center
00:47:08.800
uh to produce a a single combined super intelligence and obviously if you've got a super intelligence of
00:47:17.380
immense capability far more capable than a human that that is a that is a concern that is a risk
00:47:24.380
i've always been a tremendous admirer admirer of the uh sheer amount of talent and drive that exists in china
00:47:30.640
good morning shanghai it's my great honor distinct pleasure to address you all the attendees of the world
00:47:38.740
artificial intelligence conference in shanghai the broad topic of this part of the conference is
00:47:44.760
artificial general intelligence the succession to ai is inevitable this would be the next great step
00:47:52.920
technologically enhanced humans would be our successors inevitably eventually they would become more important
00:48:02.720
in almost all ways than ordinary humans barring cataclysms i consider the development of
00:48:08.780
intelligent machines in near-term inevitability rather quickly they would displace us from existence
00:48:16.400
as i consider these future machines are progeny mind children built in our likeness
00:48:22.700
ourselves in more potent form and it behooves us to give them every advantage
00:48:28.580
and to bow out when we can no longer contribute
00:48:31.820
uh i think kurzweil got it right when he said intelligence is the most powerful phenomenon in the universe
00:48:42.460
but humanism in the sense of being akin to racism systematic bias against the eyes
00:48:47.880
denial of their moral worth and their first-class personhood finally there's just conservatism
00:48:54.800
fear of change timidness fear of the other tribe the ais of the other tribe we are in the midst
00:49:01.440
of a major step in the evolution of the planet if not the universe
00:49:05.580
let's step a succession from ordinary humans to enhanced humans and then ais
00:49:10.160
like in in the end i don't matter that much my four kids don't matter that much my granddaughter
00:49:16.560
doesn't matter that much like we are patterns of organization in a very long lineage of patterns
00:49:22.900
of organization dinosaurs came and went and neanderthals came and went humans may come and go
00:49:29.340
the ais that we create may come and go and that's the nature of the universe
00:49:34.200
one of the best ways to think about ai in general overall is that it's alien intelligence is as if we
00:49:40.240
had contact with another planet we met aliens they're going to think differently than us
00:49:45.380
we'd have these issues of you know how do we treat them do we treat them equivalent to humans
00:49:51.060
different than humans do they have the same rights as humans um do they have more rights
00:49:58.720
okay what did i just see there i'm already petrified uh you know elon's talking about
00:50:05.320
civilizational risk today outside and he won't answer the question or is they are going to kill us all
00:50:11.220
joe allen well you hear there what he said to the audience in shanghai china earlier this summer
00:50:18.100
he tells them that artificial intelligence will soon be responsible for more computing power or more
00:50:24.120
intelligence on the planet than human beings he says that human beings will be outnumbered by robots
00:50:30.080
the he goes on to praise the chinese for their talents and looking forward to seeing what the
00:50:37.260
chinese will do with these powerful technologies immediately after that you hear richard sutton
00:50:42.620
he was from 2017 until 2023 in january of this year he was the head of google's deep mind
00:50:51.740
laboratory in canada and there you hear him talking about openly this is a philosophy shared
00:50:58.080
across silicon valley that the intention is to create silicon beings who will replace human beings
00:51:07.160
that human beings must be prepared to be enfeebled to be subservient and then to be replaced
00:51:14.540
his chinese audience what do they think about this it's unclear but they are certainly on top of it
00:51:20.040
yeah okay hang on i want you to go get dark and where they go to get your writings i'm gonna have

00:51:53.960
richard sutton want to replace humans this is the great replacement theory it's not about ethnicity
00:52:00.760
