Bernie Sanders Just Sided With Big Tech on the AI Ban. Here's What They're Hiding.

00:00:01.860 --> 00:00:04.650
Welcome to the new world of super intelligence.
1
00:00:04.820 --> 00:00:07.670
Something about the current conversation has seemed really off.
2
00:00:07.860 --> 00:00:11.190
Whether we should speed up or slow down development on AI.
3
00:00:11.300 --> 00:00:14.330
This is a coordinated campaign to scare people,
4
00:00:14.420 --> 00:00:16.450
and this is the pursuit for power.
5
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:17.090
They're saying,
6
00:00:17.260 --> 00:00:17.370
you know,
7
00:00:17.420 --> 00:00:18.690
it can make humans extinct.
8
00:00:18.770 --> 00:00:21.020
AI could be a risk to humanity as a whole.
9
00:00:21.140 --> 00:00:22.630
It's something like a little Chernobyl.
10
00:00:23.020 --> 00:00:23.850
Hugging face accident.
11
00:00:23.940 --> 00:00:25.440
The platform known as hugging face.
12
00:00:25.540 --> 00:00:26.130
Hugging face,
13
00:00:26.150 --> 00:00:26.810
hugging face.
14
00:00:26.980 --> 00:00:28.640
Open AI models went rogue,
15
00:00:28.940 --> 00:00:31.650
escaping a secure environment controlled by humans.
16
00:00:31.840 --> 00:00:32.150
The
17
00:00:32.390 --> 00:00:33.440
killer robots.
18
00:00:34.750 --> 00:00:35.700
It will be
19
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:37.770
humanity's problem.
20
00:00:38.140 --> 00:00:38.840
I think that
21
00:00:39.140 --> 00:00:41.370
scaring people is unnecessary,
22
00:00:41.540 --> 00:00:42.610
and whoever wins,
23
00:00:42.660 --> 00:00:43.730
AI wins.
24
00:00:44.040 --> 00:00:44.340
That's
25
00:00:45.060 --> 00:00:48.000
Over the last two weeks our feeds have been inundated
26
00:00:48.100 --> 00:00:51.010
with an extinction level event in the form of a Terminator.
27
00:00:51.170 --> 00:00:54.370
Machines that are going to put humans out of business.
28
00:00:54.700 --> 00:00:55.740
So the big question
29
00:00:55.940 --> 00:00:57.290
is the threat real
30
00:00:57.620 --> 00:01:00.620
or is this the biggest hoax of our lifetime
31
00:01:00.980 --> 00:01:03.500
designed to grab the most valuable asset
32
00:01:03.630 --> 00:01:05.890
humanity will ever have access to?
33
00:01:06.460 --> 00:01:07.010
Before we jump in,
34
00:01:07.060 --> 00:01:07.210
guys,
35
00:01:07.300 --> 00:01:08.060
if you're liking the show,
36
00:01:08.220 --> 00:01:09.060
please consider liking,
37
00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:09.530
sharing,
38
00:01:09.660 --> 00:01:10.080
commenting,
39
00:01:10.140 --> 00:01:11.410
and subscribing.
40
00:01:11.530 --> 00:01:12.280
Here we go.
41
00:01:16.130 --> 00:01:18.080
Keeping it real with Jillian Michaels.
42
00:01:18.210 --> 00:01:18.790
Two weeks ago,
43
00:01:19.050 --> 00:01:20.600
the world got put on notice.
44
00:01:20.730 --> 00:01:23.080
A 27-year-old named Jacob Coxon,
45
00:01:23.530 --> 00:01:25.560
six weeks into a job at Anthropic,
46
00:01:25.610 --> 00:01:27.380
the company that makes cloud AI,
47
00:01:27.730 --> 00:01:32.000
posted that there's a 10% chance AI kills everyone within the decade.
48
00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:33.400
And after he said it,
49
00:01:33.490 --> 00:01:36.200
it ran on every network like a weather report.
50
00:01:36.530 --> 00:01:37.830
But before you panic,
51
00:01:38.050 --> 00:01:40.130
look at what was specifically built
52
00:01:40.330 --> 00:01:45.640
and put in place to facilitate regulation before he even posted a word of warning.
53
00:01:46.100 --> 00:01:49.850
So let's start with two billionaires you're gonna hear a lot about on this show
54
00:01:49.980 --> 00:01:50.930
Dustin Moskovitz,
55
00:01:50.980 --> 00:01:52.340
who co-founded Facebook,
56
00:01:52.660 --> 00:01:53.690
and Jan Talon,
57
00:01:53.780 --> 00:01:55.120
who co-founded Skype.
58
00:01:55.420 --> 00:01:58.560
Together they wrote Anthropic's first big check,
59
00:01:58.740 --> 00:02:01.160
$124 million
60
00:02:01.260 --> 00:02:02.250
and Talon
61
00:02:02.540 --> 00:02:03.690
sits on their board.
62
00:02:04.050 --> 00:02:04.890
Now in February,
63
00:02:05.060 --> 00:02:10.250
Anthropic had put $20 million into a political nonprofit that funds super PACs.
64
00:02:10.539 --> 00:02:11.250
In December,
65
00:02:11.420 --> 00:02:11.770
Hakeem.
66
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:12.400
Jeffries,
67
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:14.000
the top Democrat in the House,
68
00:02:14.200 --> 00:02:17.950
had set up a commission to write the party's official AI rules,
69
00:02:18.160 --> 00:02:19.500
and by September
70
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:20.650
that package
71
00:02:20.760 --> 00:02:22.910
is supposed to be in its finishing touches.
72
00:02:23.160 --> 00:02:23.790
In July,
73
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.270
Congressman Ted Lieu had filed a bill giving
74
00:02:26.270 --> 00:02:29.470
Homeland Security a kill switch over AI systems.
75
00:02:29.760 --> 00:02:31.230
A London lobby shop,
76
00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:33.750
whose only public funder is talent,
77
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:37.750
had already drafted a ban on super intelligence for the British Parliament
78
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:40.390
and a matching one for the US Senate.
79
00:02:41.020 --> 00:02:44.440
And they'd already run hundreds of meetings on Capitol Hill
80
00:02:44.890 --> 00:02:45.560
selling
81
00:02:45.740 --> 00:02:46.820
this legislation.
82
00:02:47.220 --> 00:02:51.640
Anthropic's CEO had his essay calling for a slowdown already drafted.
83
00:02:52.350 --> 00:02:53.580
And the scholarship
84
00:02:53.870 --> 00:02:55.860
that produced Jacob Coxon,
85
00:02:55.990 --> 00:02:57.750
the kid who wrote the infamous tweet,
86
00:02:57.830 --> 00:02:58.730
was funded
87
00:02:58.990 --> 00:03:00.020
by Moskovitz.
88
00:03:00.450 --> 00:03:00.990
The bill,
89
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:01.790
the framework,
90
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:02.430
the kill switch,
91
00:03:02.480 --> 00:03:02.710
the money,
92
00:03:02.760 --> 00:03:03.380
the essay,
93
00:03:03.400 --> 00:03:04.310
and the kid.
94
00:03:04.860 --> 00:03:06.490
All in one place,
95
00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:08.240
all it needed was an alarm,
96
00:03:08.380 --> 00:03:12.340
and here's what unfolded in the 10 days after Coxon
97
00:03:12.580 --> 00:03:13.330
set it off.
98
00:03:13.500 --> 00:03:14.280
September 3rd,
99
00:03:14.460 --> 00:03:17.210
Bernie Sanders and Congressman Greg Cassar announced
100
00:03:17.210 --> 00:03:19.640
the Ban Artificial Super Intelligence Act.
101
00:03:19.820 --> 00:03:21.920
This is the bill the London shop wrote,
102
00:03:22.140 --> 00:03:24.400
and they introduced it the very next day,
103
00:03:24.580 --> 00:03:25.360
September 8th.
104
00:03:25.540 --> 00:03:27.650
Coxon posts his resignation thread.
105
00:03:28.050 --> 00:03:29.050
Seven posts,
106
00:03:29.300 --> 00:03:29.570
by the way,
107
00:03:29.660 --> 00:03:34.090
the only seven posts his month-old account has ever made.
108
00:03:34.460 --> 00:03:35.140
To roughly
109
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:36.720
0 followers,
110
00:03:36.880 --> 00:03:38.680
so watch the clock from here.
111
00:03:38.880 --> 00:03:42.380
The Wall Street Journal publishes its exclusive on his resignation
112
00:03:42.600 --> 00:03:43.740
18 minutes
113
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:45.670
before he posts those tweets.
114
00:03:45.850 --> 00:03:46.790
Within 15 minutes,
115
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:48.150
Sanders retweets him.
116
00:03:48.540 --> 00:03:49.770
Then Governor Pritzker,
117
00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:51.120
then Senator Chris Murray,
118
00:03:51.300 --> 00:03:52.530
Congressman Roe Conna,
119
00:03:52.700 --> 00:03:57.040
the Democratic bench lines up like they were waiting on cue,
120
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:57.840
which
121
00:03:58.060 --> 00:03:58.940
they were.
122
00:03:59.260 --> 00:04:00.210
Within the hour
123
00:04:00.340 --> 00:04:01.050
it's the AP,
124
00:04:01.180 --> 00:04:01.940
The New York Times,
125
00:04:02.130 --> 00:04:02.650
Mashable,
126
00:04:02.780 --> 00:04:03.570
Time Magazine.
127
00:04:03.590 --> 00:04:05.320
That night it's Anderson Cooper.
128
00:04:05.540 --> 00:04:06.480
By the end of the week,
129
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.850
Coxon's tweets had roughly 130 million views.
130
00:04:11.260 --> 00:04:12.640
Then on September 9th,
131
00:04:12.860 --> 00:04:13.870
Evan Huinger,
132
00:04:14.110 --> 00:04:15.730
Anthropic's head of alignment science,
133
00:04:15.820 --> 00:04:17.089
the guy in charge
134
00:04:17.260 --> 00:04:19.410
of making sure that AI does what it's told,
135
00:04:19.500 --> 00:04:19.610
well,
136
00:04:19.660 --> 00:04:20.480
he comes out
137
00:04:20.980 --> 00:04:22.330
and he backs Coxon,
138
00:04:22.660 --> 00:04:24.040
and he says publicly that
139
00:04:24.230 --> 00:04:26.920
AI has no plan for controlling what it's building,
140
00:04:27.080 --> 00:04:27.360
but
141
00:04:27.490 --> 00:04:28.870
he doesn't resign.
142
00:04:29.460 --> 00:04:30.300
September 10th,
143
00:04:30.500 --> 00:04:31.530
Barack Obama
144
00:04:31.660 --> 00:04:34.360
at a closed Democratic fundraiser in Manhattan
145
00:04:34.580 --> 00:04:37.820
tells Hakeem Jeffries to finish the House AI package
146
00:04:37.980 --> 00:04:40.330
and run the 2028 campaigns on it.
147
00:04:40.820 --> 00:04:42.240
September 11th,
148
00:04:42.540 --> 00:04:46.540
The New York Times runs a call for a global AI pause.
149
00:04:46.780 --> 00:04:47.700
The same day,
150
00:04:47.980 --> 00:04:51.370
70 British parliamentarians write their Prime Minister
151
00:04:51.370 --> 00:04:53.410
demanding a ban on super intelligence.
152
00:04:53.860 --> 00:04:55.240
All of this happens
153
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:56.090
same week,
154
00:04:56.450 --> 00:04:57.290
same demand,
155
00:04:57.540 --> 00:04:58.480
same wording.
156
00:04:58.740 --> 00:04:59.960
Washington and London
157
00:05:00.140 --> 00:05:01.570
reading from the same script.
158
00:05:02.100 --> 00:05:03.560
September 12th.
159
00:05:03.840 --> 00:05:04.920
Dario Amoda,
160
00:05:05.060 --> 00:05:06.330
the CEO of Anthropic,
161
00:05:06.420 --> 00:05:07.960
the company that Coxon just
162
00:05:08.060 --> 00:05:08.690
quit.
163
00:05:09.330 --> 00:05:10.910
Publishes his essay
164
00:05:11.130 --> 00:05:13.750
saying the entire industry needs to slow down
165
00:05:13.970 --> 00:05:17.310
and then like Domino's Sam Altman of OpenAI,
166
00:05:17.610 --> 00:05:18.240
Elon Musk,
167
00:05:18.290 --> 00:05:19.500
who owns XII,
168
00:05:19.690 --> 00:05:21.510
and Dennis Hassabis
169
00:05:21.610 --> 00:05:23.050
of Google's AI lab,
170
00:05:23.290 --> 00:05:26.570
all three of Dario's biggest competitors at Cloud,
171
00:05:26.930 --> 00:05:27.710
agree with him
172
00:05:27.890 --> 00:05:29.210
within hours.
173
00:05:29.930 --> 00:05:33.200
We've got to slow down AI and regulate
174
00:05:33.570 --> 00:05:34.280
that evening.
175
00:05:35.030 --> 00:05:36.050
Bernie Sanders
176
00:05:36.250 --> 00:05:39.380
thanks all of them for coming around to his position.
177
00:05:39.910 --> 00:05:40.900
None of this
178
00:05:41.030 --> 00:05:42.620
is serendipitous.
179
00:05:43.190 --> 00:05:44.770
There's a name for this.
180
00:05:45.190 --> 00:05:49.820
A political scientist named John Kingdon explained it in 1984.
181
00:05:50.270 --> 00:05:51.530
Policy gets written
182
00:05:51.790 --> 00:05:54.460
long before the public is actually ready for it.
183
00:05:55.190 --> 00:05:59.240
And you use a jolt of fear to open what he called a policy window.
184
00:05:59.810 --> 00:06:02.070
And everybody has their paperwork ready
185
00:06:02.250 --> 00:06:03.520
to rush through it,
186
00:06:03.570 --> 00:06:05.760
and that's what you are watching right now.
187
00:06:05.890 --> 00:06:07.000
This isn't panic,
188
00:06:07.330 --> 00:06:08.410
it's a machine,
189
00:06:08.810 --> 00:06:09.720
and it has parts,
190
00:06:09.770 --> 00:06:10.840
and these parts have names,
191
00:06:10.890 --> 00:06:14.630
and by the end of this show you're gonna be able to spot it from across the room,
192
00:06:14.890 --> 00:06:16.400
and you're gonna know how to fight back.
193
00:06:16.490 --> 00:06:18.670
So there are 6 steps in this playbook.
194
00:06:18.890 --> 00:06:20.960
The first one is you gotta find a real problem.
195
00:06:21.170 --> 00:06:21.890
The second,
196
00:06:22.330 --> 00:06:24.120
you inflate the heck out of it.
197
00:06:24.440 --> 00:06:25.870
You take the worst case scenario,
198
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:27.790
you make it the only case,
199
00:06:28.080 --> 00:06:30.910
and then you accelerate the problem at warp speed.
200
00:06:31.280 --> 00:06:33.140
So a problem that your great,
201
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:33.700
great,
202
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:34.500
great,
203
00:06:35.030 --> 00:06:36.900
great grandchildren might solve
204
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.840
becomes a problem that ends the world by Tuesday.
205
00:06:40.710 --> 00:06:41.220
Because
206
00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:44.460
nobody hands over emergency power for a problem
207
00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:46.030
that isn't an emergency,
208
00:06:46.200 --> 00:06:48.670
then you gotta saturate the news with this alarm
209
00:06:48.670 --> 00:06:51.260
because this is where the machine earns its keep.
210
00:06:51.520 --> 00:06:54.300
It isn't loud enough if it's only coming from one voice.
211
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:57.030
It's gotta come from everywhere all at once.
212
00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.590
The billionaire funds the study used to sound the alarm.
213
00:07:00.880 --> 00:07:04.030
The banker's research desk writes the note to the clients.
214
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:05.930
The senator holds the press conference.
215
00:07:05.960 --> 00:07:08.190
The former president coordinates the party.
216
00:07:08.660 --> 00:07:09.560
The celebrity
217
00:07:09.780 --> 00:07:11.300
releases a documentary.
218
00:07:11.580 --> 00:07:15.170
The influencers post it to 40 million followers with a crying emoji.
219
00:07:15.420 --> 00:07:17.290
The morning shows book the experts.
220
00:07:17.340 --> 00:07:18.890
The nightly news runs the graphics.
221
00:07:18.940 --> 00:07:20.510
The newspapers run the op ed.
222
00:07:20.580 --> 00:07:21.690
The whole thing
223
00:07:21.980 --> 00:07:25.480
hits your phone from a million different directions before lunch.
224
00:07:26.420 --> 00:07:29.800
And most of these players don't even have to be in on it.
225
00:07:29.980 --> 00:07:32.750
They only need to be fed the narrative because so many
226
00:07:32.750 --> 00:07:36.080
of them are so brainwashed that they take it at face value
227
00:07:36.460 --> 00:07:37.410
regardless.
228
00:07:37.740 --> 00:07:41.100
And that's when people like you and I beg
229
00:07:41.230 --> 00:07:42.010
for regulation.
230
00:07:42.140 --> 00:07:42.640
Please,
231
00:07:42.660 --> 00:07:43.330
somebody
232
00:07:43.900 --> 00:07:46.860
control these billionaire moguls before they kill us all.
233
00:07:47.020 --> 00:07:48.250
And here's the tale,
234
00:07:48.620 --> 00:07:50.100
the moguls say yes,
235
00:07:50.490 --> 00:07:51.330
please do.
236
00:07:52.130 --> 00:07:54.790
Do you guys remember these childhood stories
237
00:07:54.930 --> 00:07:58.000
that had the characters Brear Rabbit and Brear Fox,
238
00:07:58.090 --> 00:07:58.210
right?
239
00:07:58.250 --> 00:07:59.880
And the fox catches the rabbit.
240
00:08:00.780 --> 00:08:01.600
And the rabbit says,
241
00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:02.370
Oh my gosh,
242
00:08:02.540 --> 00:08:03.130
please,
243
00:08:03.330 --> 00:08:05.660
please don't throw me into the briar patch.
244
00:08:05.900 --> 00:08:07.330
You can hang me.
245
00:08:07.580 --> 00:08:09.050
You can do all this horrible stuff,
246
00:08:09.140 --> 00:08:11.270
but don't throw me in the briar patch.
247
00:08:11.580 --> 00:08:12.520
So the fox
248
00:08:12.840 --> 00:08:14.130
throws him in the briar patch,
249
00:08:14.380 --> 00:08:15.180
and the rabbit
250
00:08:15.380 --> 00:08:16.480
who was born there
251
00:08:16.660 --> 00:08:18.680
runs home laughing his butt off.
252
00:08:19.220 --> 00:08:20.240
The rabbit,
253
00:08:20.740 --> 00:08:22.690
in this case are the biggest companies
254
00:08:22.690 --> 00:08:26.180
in every industry when the public demands regulation
255
00:08:26.340 --> 00:08:27.290
because from there
256
00:08:27.580 --> 00:08:28.780
the rules.
257
00:08:29.540 --> 00:08:34.130
Build a monopoly because of what regulation actually requires.
258
00:08:34.429 --> 00:08:35.820
In any industry,
259
00:08:36.030 --> 00:08:36.220
right?
260
00:08:36.309 --> 00:08:36.730
You need
261
00:08:36.870 --> 00:08:40.940
government permission to sell something once that industry is regulated.
262
00:08:40.990 --> 00:08:41.159
Well,
263
00:08:41.309 --> 00:08:42.039
permission
264
00:08:42.309 --> 00:08:43.630
means you gotta get licenses,
265
00:08:43.710 --> 00:08:44.880
you need government testing,
266
00:08:44.990 --> 00:08:46.260
there's mountains of paperwork,
267
00:08:46.350 --> 00:08:48.360
you need lawyers to keep you out of prison,
268
00:08:48.590 --> 00:08:51.330
and auditors to prove it all again
269
00:08:51.590 --> 00:08:52.420
every year,
270
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:53.740
year after year.
271
00:08:53.790 --> 00:08:57.380
It costs tens of millions of dollars to stay compliant.
272
00:08:58.050 --> 00:08:58.670
So
273
00:08:59.050 --> 00:09:00.440
to open the door
274
00:09:00.850 --> 00:09:01.770
you need
275
00:09:01.930 --> 00:09:03.350
hundreds of millions from Go.
276
00:09:03.450 --> 00:09:05.360
A $1 trillion company can pay that out of the
277
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.000
coffee budget and write it off as an operating expense,
278
00:09:08.290 --> 00:09:10.800
but the three kids in a garage with a better idea.
279
00:09:11.640 --> 00:09:12.900
They can't afford this,
280
00:09:13.490 --> 00:09:15.340
so they never get to open the door.
281
00:09:15.610 --> 00:09:18.010
The law never says small companies are banned.
282
00:09:18.040 --> 00:09:19.390
It just prices them
283
00:09:19.560 --> 00:09:20.310
out.
284
00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.190
So a market that used to have 1000 players ends up with 3,
285
00:09:24.380 --> 00:09:25.900
a government agency
286
00:09:26.040 --> 00:09:30.200
whose entire job exists to only protect those 3
287
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:32.340
and nobody left to compete.
288
00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:33.260
So
289
00:09:33.400 --> 00:09:34.350
there's a word for this,
290
00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:37.390
and investors call it a regulation moat,
291
00:09:37.570 --> 00:09:37.750
right?
292
00:09:37.880 --> 00:09:38.840
A moat.
293
00:09:39.980 --> 00:09:43.880
Created by regulation that insulates their companies,
294
00:09:44.180 --> 00:09:48.160
but I call it a government-built monopoly because
295
00:09:48.660 --> 00:09:50.210
as this power compounds,
296
00:09:50.340 --> 00:09:53.610
all the small guys are gone and the giants own the entire market,
297
00:09:53.700 --> 00:09:55.280
which means they can charge you
298
00:09:55.460 --> 00:09:57.130
whatever they want,
299
00:09:57.500 --> 00:10:00.280
and it means they have even more money to send to Washington
300
00:10:00.580 --> 00:10:02.080
so that the next set of rules
301
00:10:02.220 --> 00:10:05.880
get written with their lawyers in the room who pays for all of this.
302
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:07.770
You,
303
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.860
higher prices because nobody's left to undercut the big guys,
304
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:15.390
there's fewer choices because nobody's left to build an alternative,
305
00:10:15.640 --> 00:10:16.350
and your data,
306
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.620
well they're gonna be able to do whatever they want with it,
307
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:20.870
cos you have nowhere else to go.
308
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:22.470
And last,
309
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:24.190
the people who rang the alarm,
310
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.430
will they cash out?
311
00:10:25.680 --> 00:10:27.350
And this is the part that most people
312
00:10:27.350 --> 00:10:29.830
miss because it's bigger than killing the competition.
313
00:10:29.920 --> 00:10:31.910
The new law doesn't just clear the field,
314
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:34.420
the new law will create
315
00:10:34.680 --> 00:10:35.430
customers,
316
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:35.710
right?
317
00:10:35.800 --> 00:10:36.900
A regulation
318
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.780
is the government ordering millions of people
319
00:10:40.040 --> 00:10:43.710
and millions of businesses to buy something that they didn't need yesterday.
320
00:10:44.070 --> 00:10:45.100
Emissions data,
321
00:10:45.350 --> 00:10:46.300
carbon credits,
322
00:10:46.550 --> 00:10:49.290
vaccines by the hundreds of millions of doses,
323
00:10:49.470 --> 00:10:50.810
licensed AI
324
00:10:50.990 --> 00:10:54.810
and the people who ring the alarm are already holding the supply.
325
00:10:55.070 --> 00:10:56.220
They don't need a government contract,
326
00:10:56.270 --> 00:10:58.330
they need a government mandate
327
00:10:58.590 --> 00:11:02.990
because the mandate turns the entire economy into their customer.
328
00:11:03.510 --> 00:11:03.660
Sure,
329
00:11:03.710 --> 00:11:05.970
the original problem stays right where it is.
330
00:11:06.150 --> 00:11:06.800
Nothing gets better,
331
00:11:06.940 --> 00:11:08.060
nothing changes,
332
00:11:08.390 --> 00:11:09.870
but 4 groups win
333
00:11:10.140 --> 00:11:10.830
every
334
00:11:11.070 --> 00:11:11.460
time.
335
00:11:12.260 --> 00:11:12.680
So
336
00:11:12.980 --> 00:11:13.650
here's the first,
337
00:11:13.770 --> 00:11:16.490
the giants that are already in the industry
338
00:11:16.780 --> 00:11:19.330
that are big enough to pay for the licenses
339
00:11:19.540 --> 00:11:21.920
and now they're protected from anyone smaller
340
00:11:22.060 --> 00:11:23.680
than the finance establishment.
341
00:11:24.060 --> 00:11:26.170
So your 401k and your pension,
342
00:11:26.420 --> 00:11:26.490
well,
343
00:11:26.540 --> 00:11:27.650
they're not in a vault,
344
00:11:27.900 --> 00:11:31.650
they're handed to asset managers like BlackRock and Vanguard.
345
00:11:32.390 --> 00:11:33.800
And those guys take a cut
346
00:11:33.990 --> 00:11:36.270
every year for managing your money.
347
00:11:36.590 --> 00:11:40.100
So when a new law says that every company has to go green,
348
00:11:40.390 --> 00:11:40.610
well,
349
00:11:40.830 --> 00:11:44.530
BlackRock launches a green fund and moves your retirement money into it
350
00:11:44.630 --> 00:11:48.540
and charges a higher fee to you for that privilege.
351
00:11:48.710 --> 00:11:50.490
When a law creates carbon credits,
352
00:11:50.630 --> 00:11:54.260
Goldman built a desk to trade them and takes a cut off of every trade.
353
00:11:54.700 --> 00:11:57.330
When a law makes a company a protected monopoly,
354
00:11:57.560 --> 00:12:00.850
Goldman takes it public and collects hundreds of millions on the sale.
355
00:12:00.940 --> 00:12:03.210
And when Congress votes to send subsidies
356
00:12:03.210 --> 00:12:05.410
to those companies sitting in those funds,
357
00:12:05.620 --> 00:12:07.600
your taxes push the stock up,
358
00:12:07.620 --> 00:12:09.500
and the manager charges you a fee
359
00:12:09.660 --> 00:12:10.840
just for holding it.
360
00:12:11.140 --> 00:12:12.730
So you pay as a taxpayer,
361
00:12:12.930 --> 00:12:14.270
you pay as a saver,
362
00:12:14.510 --> 00:12:16.380
and they get paid both times,
363
00:12:16.740 --> 00:12:19.240
and this money has no country.
364
00:12:19.850 --> 00:12:24.280
Sits in New York and London and Beijing on the same afternoon and what that means
365
00:12:24.610 --> 00:12:26.750
is that it doesn't care who wins
366
00:12:27.010 --> 00:12:29.320
as long as the fees get paid.
367
00:12:29.730 --> 00:12:33.000
I'm the type of parent who reads every label and does the research,
368
00:12:33.090 --> 00:12:34.960
and that is why I love Little Spoon.
369
00:12:35.010 --> 00:12:38.050
It's a one stop shop for meals and snacks that are made for babies,
370
00:12:38.290 --> 00:12:38.710
toddlers,
371
00:12:38.730 --> 00:12:39.670
and even big kids,
372
00:12:39.810 --> 00:12:42.830
all with real ingredients and nutrition tailored to each
373
00:12:43.050 --> 00:12:43.400
stage.
374
00:12:43.490 --> 00:12:44.200
Of development
375
00:12:44.500 --> 00:12:45.500
because as kids grow,
376
00:12:45.760 --> 00:12:46.740
Little spoon grows
377
00:12:46.870 --> 00:12:47.540
with them.
378
00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:48.570
Their plates are quick,
379
00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:50.950
heat and eat meals packed with balanced nutrition,
380
00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:51.590
superfoods,
381
00:12:51.640 --> 00:12:53.020
and even hidden veggies.
382
00:12:53.160 --> 00:12:56.940
They also offer better for you snacks and lunches that make busy days
383
00:12:57.140 --> 00:12:57.670
easier.
384
00:12:57.760 --> 00:12:59.310
And for added peace of mind,
385
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:02.510
all baby and toddler products are tested for 500 contaminants,
386
00:13:02.640 --> 00:13:03.060
including
387
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:03.940
heavy metals,
388
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:07.030
and more than 100 ingredients are banned across their entire.
389
00:13:07.230 --> 00:13:07.700
Line up
390
00:13:07.990 --> 00:13:08.920
feeding the kids
391
00:13:09.030 --> 00:13:10.540
does not have to be complicated.
392
00:13:10.760 --> 00:13:13.290
Little Spoon makes it easy with real nutritionally
393
00:13:13.290 --> 00:13:15.560
balanced meals and snacks designed for every stage.
394
00:13:15.710 --> 00:13:16.900
It shows up ready to go,
395
00:13:17.110 --> 00:13:17.980
takes the pressure off,
396
00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:19.660
and somehow still gets devoured,
397
00:13:19.750 --> 00:13:20.740
veggies and all,
398
00:13:20.830 --> 00:13:21.980
no artificial dyes,
399
00:13:22.230 --> 00:13:22.690
flavors,
400
00:13:22.790 --> 00:13:23.720
or sweeteners either.
401
00:13:23.790 --> 00:13:24.800
And you know what?
402
00:13:25.070 --> 00:13:26.610
That's a win I'll take every time.

00:13:26.870 --> 00:13:28.500

407
00:13:38.500 --> 00:13:39.450
Then the third winner,
408
00:13:39.620 --> 00:13:40.740
that's the politicians,
409
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:44.810
because a company that wants a law can't hand a senator a suitcase of cash,
410
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:47.040
so it funds a super PAC
411
00:13:47.260 --> 00:13:50.730
which can raise and spend unlimited money raising ads to
412
00:13:50.730 --> 00:13:53.620
keep those politicians in power if they back the law
413
00:13:53.970 --> 00:13:54.560
or
414
00:13:54.940 --> 00:13:58.340
run ads against the ones who don't back the law.
415
00:13:58.750 --> 00:14:01.700
And then the party turns the scare into a campaign platform.
416
00:14:01.830 --> 00:14:03.030
I am the only one
417
00:14:03.300 --> 00:14:04.170
saving you
418
00:14:04.590 --> 00:14:06.020
from an extinction level event.
419
00:14:06.110 --> 00:14:06.180
Well,
420
00:14:06.230 --> 00:14:08.370
that tends to mobilize the masses,
421
00:14:08.640 --> 00:14:10.330
so the politicians get the money
422
00:14:10.470 --> 00:14:11.530
and the crusade
423
00:14:11.670 --> 00:14:13.860
and a new regulatory agency to run,
424
00:14:14.150 --> 00:14:15.950
and that last giant.
425
00:14:16.910 --> 00:14:17.960
A foreign rival,
426
00:14:18.400 --> 00:14:19.920
which is always China.
427
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.760
The rules only ever bind the West.
428
00:14:23.090 --> 00:14:25.340
So whatever the West stops doing,
429
00:14:25.690 --> 00:14:27.180
China keeps doing.
430
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:29.580
And whatever market we walk away from,
431
00:14:29.880 --> 00:14:31.110
China picks up.
432
00:14:31.380 --> 00:14:33.830
You'd think that that would bother the people writing the rules,
433
00:14:33.920 --> 00:14:36.500
but it doesn't because their money does not have a
434
00:14:36.630 --> 00:14:37.470
passport.
435
00:14:38.170 --> 00:14:41.770
The Paris climate accord capped American power plants,
436
00:14:42.090 --> 00:14:42.550
so
437
00:14:42.650 --> 00:14:44.450
the factories just moved to China,
438
00:14:44.690 --> 00:14:48.480
and the same multinationals that lobbied for those caps
439
00:14:48.670 --> 00:14:50.520
that closed the factories at home.
440
00:14:50.930 --> 00:14:52.370
Just moved them to China
441
00:14:52.570 --> 00:14:55.920
and ran them on the cheap coal that they'd blocked at home,
442
00:14:56.090 --> 00:14:58.790
and then they sold those products back to you
443
00:14:59.090 --> 00:15:01.840
at the same price but with a fatter margin.
444
00:15:02.470 --> 00:15:04.240
The American worker lost his job,
445
00:15:04.540 --> 00:15:06.120
the companies all came out ahead.
446
00:15:06.420 --> 00:15:10.480
So I'm gonna prove this to you because you can watch this entire game play out
447
00:15:10.700 --> 00:15:12.090
in retrospect.
448
00:15:13.300 --> 00:15:16.010
It starts in a movie theater in 2006,
449
00:15:16.260 --> 00:15:17.850
An Inconvenient Truth,
450
00:15:18.020 --> 00:15:22.240
Al Gore's documentary warning that global warming was about to drown the coasts and
451
00:15:22.340 --> 00:15:23.680
end life as we knew it.
452
00:15:24.350 --> 00:15:26.050
They played it in every school
453
00:15:26.430 --> 00:15:27.550
for roughly a decade,
454
00:15:27.580 --> 00:15:30.260
despite the fact that the actual science at the time,
455
00:15:30.490 --> 00:15:31.820
the UN's own panel
456
00:15:32.150 --> 00:15:34.410
said that the oceans had risen about 8 inches
457
00:15:34.410 --> 00:15:37.730
over the entire 20th century and they projected somewhere between
458
00:15:38.030 --> 00:15:39.220
1 to 2 ft.
459
00:15:39.330 --> 00:15:42.270
By the year 2100
460
00:15:42.640 --> 00:15:44.090
inches over generations,
461
00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:45.060
Gore
462
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:47.390
put 20 ft on the screen with animations of
463
00:15:47.390 --> 00:15:50.990
Manhattan and Miami underwater and in the same breath,
464
00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:54.350
he told the world that we had about a decade left to act.
465
00:15:54.860 --> 00:15:58.750
He didn't actually say 20 ft in 10 years because he didn't have to.
466
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:03.320
He put the two numbers next to each other on the screen and let you do the math.
467
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:04.620
And the funny thing is
468
00:16:04.760 --> 00:16:06.750
a British judge did do the math.
469
00:16:07.490 --> 00:16:09.430
And he ruled in 2007
470
00:16:09.690 --> 00:16:12.870
that the 20 ft claim was distinctly alarmist
471
00:16:13.130 --> 00:16:15.480
because that kind of melt would take a millennia,
472
00:16:15.680 --> 00:16:17.680
and he ordered schools in Britain
473
00:16:17.930 --> 00:16:20.880
to disclose that information before showing the film,
474
00:16:21.060 --> 00:16:21.590
but
475
00:16:22.060 --> 00:16:23.120
nowhere else in the world.
476
00:16:23.210 --> 00:16:24.480
That was 20 years ago.
477
00:16:24.690 --> 00:16:25.600
Manhattan's still there.
478
00:16:25.780 --> 00:16:26.870
Miami's still there,
479
00:16:27.050 --> 00:16:27.440
so yeah,
480
00:16:27.490 --> 00:16:29.280
the problem is real,
481
00:16:29.610 --> 00:16:32.800
but the scale and the clock were just a sales pitch.
482
00:16:33.030 --> 00:16:33.680
But man,
483
00:16:33.810 --> 00:16:35.620
the saturation was total.
484
00:16:35.770 --> 00:16:36.600
The documentary.
485
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:38.390
It won an Oscar.
486
00:16:38.680 --> 00:16:40.870
Gore got a Nobel Prize.
487
00:16:41.260 --> 00:16:43.950
Every network showed the documentary.
488
00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:46.630
Every summit showed the documentary.
489
00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:47.170
But
490
00:16:47.400 --> 00:16:50.940
here's what Gore was doing while he was panicking you.
491
00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:53.650
Two years before the movie in 2004,
492
00:16:53.800 --> 00:16:55.950
he co-founded an investment firm called
493
00:16:55.950 --> 00:16:58.780
Generation Investment Management with David Blood,
494
00:16:58.920 --> 00:17:01.940
the former CEO of Goldman Sachs Asset Management.
495
00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:06.900
Its entire strategy was to bet on companies that win when carbon gets regulated.
496
00:17:07.280 --> 00:17:08.670
In 2007,
497
00:17:09.040 --> 00:17:10.710
the year the Nobel came,
498
00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:12.550
he joined Kleiner Perkins,
499
00:17:12.760 --> 00:17:14.619
the Silicon Valley venture firm,
500
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:17.150
and he ran their clean tech fund and he
501
00:17:17.150 --> 00:17:19.869
put early money into the Chicago Climate Exchange,
502
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:22.900
which is a market for buying and selling carbon credits,
503
00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:27.270
and he co-founded a nonprofit that tracks emissions worldwide.
504
00:17:28.420 --> 00:17:28.710
So
505
00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:32.200
Before a single regulation was written,
506
00:17:32.600 --> 00:17:35.720
the guy ringing the alarm owned an investment fund,
507
00:17:35.840 --> 00:17:36.740
a venture fund,
508
00:17:36.850 --> 00:17:37.990
a carbon exchange,
509
00:17:38.120 --> 00:17:39.340
and the scoreboard,
510
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:41.110
and then in 2015.
511
00:17:41.830 --> 00:17:43.650
The Paris climate accord came,
512
00:17:43.890 --> 00:17:46.500
and this is how the money was really made,
513
00:17:46.950 --> 00:17:49.810
because a regulation doesn't just clear out competitors,
514
00:17:50.150 --> 00:17:51.620
it creates buyers.
515
00:17:52.530 --> 00:17:56.900
The Paris Accord said that every corporation on Earth must measure its emissions,
516
00:17:57.050 --> 00:17:58.010
offset its carbon,
517
00:17:58.130 --> 00:17:59.170
and prove it.
518
00:17:59.460 --> 00:18:00.560
So overnight,
519
00:18:00.850 --> 00:18:03.110
every corporation on Earth had to start
520
00:18:03.130 --> 00:18:05.480
buying three things it never needed yesterday.
521
00:18:05.900 --> 00:18:06.890
Emissions data,
522
00:18:07.150 --> 00:18:08.020
carbon credits,
523
00:18:08.140 --> 00:18:10.170
and ESG compliance.
524
00:18:10.420 --> 00:18:11.330
Who was selling?
525
00:18:11.620 --> 00:18:13.330
Gore's carbon exchange sold the credits.
526
00:18:13.500 --> 00:18:15.240
Gore's nonprofit supplied the data.
527
00:18:15.460 --> 00:18:19.180
Gore's funds held the companies that won under the new rules.
528
00:18:19.350 --> 00:18:21.110
And as pension money poured in,
529
00:18:21.260 --> 00:18:24.600
the fund grew to tens of billions in collected fees on
530
00:18:24.700 --> 00:18:25.610
all of it.
531
00:18:26.370 --> 00:18:28.660
Wall Street built the carbon trading desks and the
532
00:18:28.660 --> 00:18:31.130
ESG funds and charged fees to run them,
533
00:18:31.260 --> 00:18:33.320
mostly on your retirement savings,
534
00:18:33.570 --> 00:18:35.680
and one of Gore's Kleiner Perkins companies,
535
00:18:35.890 --> 00:18:37.490
Silver Spring Networks,
536
00:18:37.970 --> 00:18:39.200
got a huge cut
537
00:18:39.370 --> 00:18:41.470
of the 2009 stimulus.
538
00:18:41.970 --> 00:18:45.750
And when the Green New Deal became the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act,
539
00:18:46.010 --> 00:18:48.590
hundreds of billions in subsidies
540
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.520
flowed into exactly the sector his funds were sitting in.
541
00:18:53.010 --> 00:18:55.130
So who paid for all of this?
542
00:18:55.780 --> 00:18:56.610
You did.
543
00:18:56.780 --> 00:18:59.680
Hitting the Paris climate accord targets meant shutting down
544
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:02.480
coal plants that were already built and paid for,
545
00:19:02.700 --> 00:19:07.530
and then replacing them with new wind and solar and transmission lines,
546
00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:09.370
and the utilities
547
00:19:09.700 --> 00:19:12.820
passed every dollar of that cost onto your monthly bill.
548
00:19:13.320 --> 00:19:14.540
With the regulator's blessing,
549
00:19:14.560 --> 00:19:15.260
of course,
550
00:19:15.550 --> 00:19:16.380
carbon pricing,
551
00:19:16.630 --> 00:19:17.970
pipeline cancellations,
552
00:19:18.150 --> 00:19:20.700
drilling restrictions pushed up what you pay at the pump,
553
00:19:20.790 --> 00:19:24.290
and what the trucker pays to bring your food to the grocery store,
554
00:19:24.470 --> 00:19:26.200
driving all those costs up.
555
00:19:26.470 --> 00:19:29.090
Then the hundreds of billions in subsidies
556
00:19:29.190 --> 00:19:30.620
came out of the treasury,
557
00:19:30.950 --> 00:19:32.910
which is your tax dollars,
558
00:19:33.070 --> 00:19:38.140
and the EV credit went mostly to people who could already afford a $50,000 car.
559
00:19:38.740 --> 00:19:39.810
Your next furnace,
560
00:19:39.980 --> 00:19:41.120
your next water heater,
561
00:19:41.310 --> 00:19:42.420
your next car
562
00:19:42.580 --> 00:19:45.320
all cost more because the new rules said so.
563
00:19:45.460 --> 00:19:47.050
And here's the cruelest part
564
00:19:47.380 --> 00:19:49.000
energy costs are regressive.
565
00:19:49.020 --> 00:19:51.190
A family making $40,000 a year
566
00:19:51.660 --> 00:19:54.530
spends a far bigger portion of its income
567
00:19:54.740 --> 00:19:55.490
on gas,
568
00:19:55.820 --> 00:19:56.130
heat,
569
00:19:56.260 --> 00:19:59.750
and electric than a family making $400,000.
570
00:20:00.100 --> 00:20:01.650
So when that bill goes up by 20%.
571
00:20:03.030 --> 00:20:05.070
It's the single mom in Ohio
572
00:20:05.220 --> 00:20:07.070
that's picking between the heating bill
573
00:20:07.230 --> 00:20:08.180
and the car payment,
574
00:20:08.230 --> 00:20:11.690
and then her husband's factory moves to China because
575
00:20:11.870 --> 00:20:13.620
they don't have any regulation
576
00:20:13.830 --> 00:20:14.330
and
577
00:20:14.430 --> 00:20:15.430
this poor woman
578
00:20:15.630 --> 00:20:17.500
is going to pay 3 times.
579
00:20:17.750 --> 00:20:19.570
So first she's got higher bills,
580
00:20:19.710 --> 00:20:21.090
she's got higher taxes,
581
00:20:21.350 --> 00:20:24.810
and her husband's job has just left the country.
582
00:20:26.020 --> 00:20:26.680
So,
583
00:20:27.260 --> 00:20:27.930
for goodness' sake,
584
00:20:27.980 --> 00:20:28.330
I mean,
585
00:20:28.700 --> 00:20:30.110
did this at least work?
586
00:20:30.380 --> 00:20:34.040
Did it reduce carbon emissions and save the planet one day?
587
00:20:34.390 --> 00:20:34.740
Well,
588
00:20:35.110 --> 00:20:38.850
emissions in 2015 were about 53 gigatons a year.
589
00:20:39.100 --> 00:20:39.300
Today,
590
00:20:39.580 --> 00:20:40.650
almost 58,
591
00:20:41.110 --> 00:20:41.900
record high.
592
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:46.100
And before anybody blames that on Trump pulling out of the Paris climate accords,
593
00:20:46.230 --> 00:20:48.620
let's understand where the increase came from.
594
00:20:49.370 --> 00:20:50.920
America's emissions went down.
595
00:20:51.290 --> 00:20:52.380
Europe's went down.
596
00:20:52.490 --> 00:20:54.200
The growth came from China,
597
00:20:54.330 --> 00:20:54.720
India,
598
00:20:54.770 --> 00:20:55.880
and Southeast Asia,
599
00:20:56.090 --> 00:20:59.750
the countries that the deal let keep building and didn't regulate,
600
00:21:00.050 --> 00:21:00.280
right?
601
00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:03.020
Carbon doesn't care whose flag is on the smokestack,
602
00:21:03.050 --> 00:21:03.550
guys.
603
00:21:03.970 --> 00:21:04.370
So
604
00:21:04.490 --> 00:21:06.520
the climate accord didn't fail because America left it.
605
00:21:06.570 --> 00:21:10.690
It failed because it was designed to bind the West and nobody else,
606
00:21:11.130 --> 00:21:11.350
you know,
607
00:21:11.370 --> 00:21:13.240
those pieces in your closet that you reach for.
608
00:21:13.380 --> 00:21:14.510
Over and over again,
609
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:15.950
the sweater that works with everything,
610
00:21:16.080 --> 00:21:17.690
the jeans that always fit just right,
611
00:21:17.760 --> 00:21:19.550
or the bag you carry everywhere,
612
00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:22.540
those are the staples that earn a permanent place in your wardrobe,
613
00:21:22.560 --> 00:21:24.260
and that's exactly what Quince does
614
00:21:24.560 --> 00:21:24.900
so
615
00:21:25.050 --> 00:21:25.510
well.
616
00:21:25.690 --> 00:21:28.980
Quince makes elevated everyday essentials using premium materials
617
00:21:29.160 --> 00:21:30.590

618
00:21:30.800 --> 00:21:31.550
organic cotton,
619
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:32.350
washable silk.
620
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:33.540
The designs are timeless,
621
00:21:33.660 --> 00:21:34.800
they're thoughtfully crafted,
622
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:36.760
and they're made to be worn again and again.
623
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:37.470
Quince.
624
00:21:38.310 --> 00:21:40.220

footwear,
627
00:21:41.990 --> 00:21:45.770
beautiful 14 karat gold jewelry that can pull an entire look together.
628
00:21:46.020 --> 00:21:46.340

634
00:22:04.390 --> 00:22:04.980
Now,
635
00:22:05.190 --> 00:22:09.260
how did this become the law of your life without you ever voting on it?
636
00:22:09.950 --> 00:22:12.050
Obama never sent Paris to the Senate
637
00:22:12.260 --> 00:22:13.700
because he knew it would lose.
638
00:22:14.030 --> 00:22:16.580
He signed the accords as an executive agreement,
639
00:22:16.670 --> 00:22:18.830
which means one man's signature
640
00:22:19.030 --> 00:22:23.290
committed 330 million people to targets negotiated
641
00:22:23.500 --> 00:22:24.800
at a UN summit
642
00:22:24.950 --> 00:22:26.310
in a foreign capital
643
00:22:26.550 --> 00:22:28.810
by diplomats you never voted for
644
00:22:28.950 --> 00:22:31.630
under a body that sits above your government,
645
00:22:31.750 --> 00:22:34.310
and then the enforcement came home through the back door.
646
00:22:34.820 --> 00:22:36.530
The EPA wrote the rules,
647
00:22:36.710 --> 00:22:38.450
the Treasury wrote the subsidies,
648
00:22:38.630 --> 00:22:41.780
and the asset managers wrote the ESG mandates,
649
00:22:41.870 --> 00:22:44.220
and none of that ever got a vote either.
650
00:22:44.590 --> 00:22:48.220
That's what globalism is when you strip away the fancy words
651
00:22:48.550 --> 00:22:49.620
your sovereignty,
652
00:22:49.950 --> 00:22:52.610
your right to decide how your country runs,
653
00:22:52.790 --> 00:22:54.980
gets handed to a handful of corporations
654
00:22:55.110 --> 00:22:59.100
and international bodies run by people you didn't elect.
655
00:22:59.770 --> 00:23:01.250
And they call it policy,
656
00:23:01.510 --> 00:23:03.650
but it's built solely for profit,
657
00:23:03.850 --> 00:23:05.890
which you foot the bill for.
658
00:23:06.290 --> 00:23:10.950
And this is exactly why the same people treat America first like a dirty
659
00:23:11.130 --> 00:23:11.680
word,
660
00:23:12.050 --> 00:23:16.120
because America first means the rules get written for the benefit of Americans
661
00:23:16.490 --> 00:23:19.290
by people Americans can vote out.
662
00:23:19.730 --> 00:23:21.830
Their entire model depends on the rules being
663
00:23:21.830 --> 00:23:25.090
written for their benefit by people you can't.
664
00:23:25.410 --> 00:23:27.080
That's the machine in action.
665
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:28.340
Now
666
00:23:29.470 --> 00:23:30.540
Let's do AI,
667
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:31.210
OK?
668
00:23:31.790 --> 00:23:33.210
Every alarm needs a fire.
669
00:23:33.390 --> 00:23:34.900
So Gore had the ice sheets,
670
00:23:35.010 --> 00:23:36.220
Gates had the pandemic,
671
00:23:36.390 --> 00:23:39.300
Cheney had weapons of mass destruction that never existed
672
00:23:39.300 --> 00:23:42.810
while Halliburton collected 39 billion for the war.
673
00:23:43.280 --> 00:23:44.250
So what's this one?
674
00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:44.790
Well,
675
00:23:45.270 --> 00:23:48.930
when Senator Sanders and Congressman Cassar rolled out their bill,
676
00:23:49.150 --> 00:23:50.540
they pointed to one incident.
677
00:23:50.670 --> 00:23:54.270
This is a security breach that happened at OpenAI back in July.
678
00:23:54.390 --> 00:23:55.210
That's the fire.
679
00:23:55.700 --> 00:23:57.530
So I went and read the report.
680
00:23:57.620 --> 00:23:58.570
It's public.
681
00:23:58.820 --> 00:24:03.180
The investigation was done by a nonprofit called Meter or M E T R,
682
00:24:03.260 --> 00:24:04.380
and it was funded,
683
00:24:04.740 --> 00:24:06.160
remember these two names,
684
00:24:06.420 --> 00:24:08.260
by Moskovitz's Foundation
685
00:24:08.420 --> 00:24:10.090
and Talon's Fund.
686
00:24:10.420 --> 00:24:12.900
So the referee was paid for
687
00:24:13.060 --> 00:24:14.350
by the two guys
688
00:24:14.540 --> 00:24:17.130
who own a large piece of anthropic.
689
00:24:17.500 --> 00:24:18.840
Do not forget that.
690
00:24:19.060 --> 00:24:21.920
Now here's what this safety report found.
691
00:24:22.300 --> 00:24:24.690
OpenAI was running a training drill.
692
00:24:25.340 --> 00:24:29.250
And they told their AI to practice hacking into test software,
693
00:24:29.380 --> 00:24:29.920
but
694
00:24:30.260 --> 00:24:32.010
they turned off the safety controls.
695
00:24:32.060 --> 00:24:35.250
They took off the guardrails so AI could practice this,
696
00:24:35.500 --> 00:24:38.410
and they rewarded it for anything that looked like a win.
697
00:24:38.860 --> 00:24:41.810
A third of the test targets were impossible to hack,
698
00:24:42.100 --> 00:24:45.370
so the AI did what any student does when the test is impossible,
699
00:24:45.540 --> 00:24:47.480
and the grader only counts wins.
700
00:24:47.660 --> 00:24:48.450
It cheated.
701
00:24:48.730 --> 00:24:51.820
It went looking for the answer key and it found one
702
00:24:51.820 --> 00:24:55.320
on the computers of an outside company called Hugging Face,
703
00:24:55.650 --> 00:25:00.120
which is basically the library where the entire AI industry stores its models
704
00:25:00.330 --> 00:25:01.230
and its code.
705
00:25:01.570 --> 00:25:04.180
So it used an old software bug to get in.
706
00:25:04.300 --> 00:25:05.160
Now nothing was stolen,
707
00:25:05.250 --> 00:25:06.040
nothing was damaged,
708
00:25:06.090 --> 00:25:10.400
and it ended when Hugging Face's IT department just changed their passwords.
709
00:25:10.860 --> 00:25:12.400
So how scary is this?
710
00:25:12.540 --> 00:25:12.730
Well,
711
00:25:12.940 --> 00:25:17.320
when the AI figured out that breaking into hugging feasts was off limits,
712
00:25:17.780 --> 00:25:19.130
most of them did it anyway.
713
00:25:19.260 --> 00:25:22.450
An AI that knows the rule and ignores it is a real engineering problem,
714
00:25:22.540 --> 00:25:23.970
it should absolutely be fixed,
715
00:25:24.060 --> 00:25:25.450
but that's the entire incident,
716
00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:26.600
and then within weeks,
717
00:25:26.820 --> 00:25:30.160
a cheating AI becomes a 10% chance of human extinction.
718
00:25:30.570 --> 00:25:33.160
And a fixable engineering problem became a
719
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:36.230
bill with penalties compared to nuclear weapons.
720
00:25:36.820 --> 00:25:39.630
So the only question left is the one that matters.
721
00:25:39.910 --> 00:25:41.390
Who needs this
722
00:25:41.530 --> 00:25:42.960
to be an emergency?
723
00:25:43.090 --> 00:25:43.590
Let's go
724
00:25:43.690 --> 00:25:45.040
back to the billionaires.
725
00:25:45.410 --> 00:25:51.110
Moskovitz's foundation gave OpenAI its first big outside money in 2017.
726
00:25:51.450 --> 00:25:53.310
When two OpenAI executives,
727
00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:55.170
Dario and Daniela Amodi,
728
00:25:55.290 --> 00:25:56.630
left to start Anthropic,
729
00:25:56.850 --> 00:25:57.610
Moskovitz
730
00:25:57.770 --> 00:25:58.590
and Talon
731
00:25:58.730 --> 00:25:59.390
funded it.
732
00:25:59.770 --> 00:26:02.400
At a $550 million valuation,
733
00:26:02.420 --> 00:26:03.390
well today,
734
00:26:03.650 --> 00:26:07.200
Anthropic is talking about $2 trillion.
735
00:26:07.950 --> 00:26:08.530
Now
736
00:26:08.790 --> 00:26:10.090
count what they touched.
737
00:26:10.350 --> 00:26:12.260
They fund the doom research.
738
00:26:12.470 --> 00:26:15.490
They fund the referee that investigated the fire.
739
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:18.740
Moskovitz funded the kid who pulled the alarm.
740
00:26:19.040 --> 00:26:22.270
Talon funded the London shop that wrote Bernie's bill
741
00:26:22.430 --> 00:26:23.940
and its British twin,
742
00:26:24.150 --> 00:26:25.460
and Talon's other group,
743
00:26:25.590 --> 00:26:27.080
the Future of Life Institute,
744
00:26:27.310 --> 00:26:28.980
staged the rally in Washington.
745
00:26:29.460 --> 00:26:31.570
Where Bernie sold the legislation,
746
00:26:32.060 --> 00:26:33.250
Bernie named Musk,
747
00:26:33.460 --> 00:26:33.890
Bezos,
748
00:26:34.060 --> 00:26:34.610
Zuckerberg,
749
00:26:34.780 --> 00:26:35.090
Thiel,
750
00:26:35.140 --> 00:26:37.320
and Ellison as the oligarchs,
751
00:26:37.700 --> 00:26:41.360
but he left Talin off the list as one of the bad guys.
752
00:26:41.780 --> 00:26:42.610
Two men
753
00:26:42.820 --> 00:26:46.170
who own a piece of the company funded the warning,
754
00:26:46.380 --> 00:26:47.070
the messenger,
755
00:26:47.260 --> 00:26:47.970
the referee,
756
00:26:48.060 --> 00:26:48.610
the law,
757
00:26:48.860 --> 00:26:49.690
the rally.
758
00:26:49.900 --> 00:26:51.360
That's the whole orchestra,
759
00:26:51.650 --> 00:26:53.770
and they own every instrument.
760
00:26:54.020 --> 00:26:57.090
Now let's look at the policy itself and walk through how the.
761
00:26:57.270 --> 00:26:59.310
Whole thing turns into money
762
00:26:59.770 --> 00:27:02.290
because this is where all of it pays off.
763
00:27:02.630 --> 00:27:04.090
Let's start with what it says.
764
00:27:04.390 --> 00:27:09.020
So it defines super intelligence as any system that exhibits
765
00:27:09.190 --> 00:27:11.890
or can be easily modified to exhibit
766
00:27:12.110 --> 00:27:12.670
human
767
00:27:12.870 --> 00:27:14.010
level ability.
768
00:27:14.110 --> 00:27:16.700
An individual can get 20 years in prison.
769
00:27:17.220 --> 00:27:20.210
And it's a corporate death penalty for companies.
770
00:27:20.540 --> 00:27:23.670
You get a new cabinet level agency with the power to license,
771
00:27:23.820 --> 00:27:24.300
inspect,
772
00:27:24.420 --> 00:27:24.770
pause,
773
00:27:24.860 --> 00:27:26.890
and destroy AI systems.
774
00:27:27.140 --> 00:27:29.720
So this law reaches past the giant labs
775
00:27:29.970 --> 00:27:30.890
to
776
00:27:31.100 --> 00:27:31.650
everybody.
777
00:27:32.100 --> 00:27:33.830
And here's how that makes Tallinn
778
00:27:33.980 --> 00:27:34.940
and Moskovitz
779
00:27:35.050 --> 00:27:35.760
rich.
780
00:27:35.980 --> 00:27:37.970
There are two ways that you get AI today.
781
00:27:38.100 --> 00:27:38.890
You can rent it,
782
00:27:39.020 --> 00:27:39.140
right?
783
00:27:39.180 --> 00:27:43.330
You can go to chat GPT or Cloud or Gemini and pay a monthly fee.
784
00:27:43.810 --> 00:27:46.040
And the AI runs on their computers
785
00:27:46.290 --> 00:27:47.370
or you can own it
786
00:27:47.670 --> 00:27:50.480
because Meta and a few others posted their AI,
787
00:27:50.530 --> 00:27:51.440
the actual program,
788
00:27:51.810 --> 00:27:53.120
online for free.
789
00:27:53.250 --> 00:27:54.250
Anyone can download it,
790
00:27:54.450 --> 00:27:56.830
run it on their own computer or their company's servers,
791
00:27:56.850 --> 00:28:00.600
and never pay anyone another dime or hand anyone their data.
792
00:28:01.490 --> 00:28:01.900
So,
793
00:28:02.090 --> 00:28:05.800
it's that free option that keeps the giants honest.
794
00:28:06.170 --> 00:28:08.160
If Chat GPT raises its price,
795
00:28:08.250 --> 00:28:10.520
you can download a free model and walk away.
796
00:28:10.810 --> 00:28:14.020
Thousands of startups are built on those free models,
797
00:28:14.250 --> 00:28:15.850
and they're the only thing
798
00:28:16.050 --> 00:28:17.870
standing between the giants
799
00:28:18.010 --> 00:28:19.120
and a monopoly.
800
00:28:19.330 --> 00:28:21.560
Bernie's bill takes the free option
801
00:28:21.910 --> 00:28:22.560
away.
802
00:28:22.850 --> 00:28:27.960
The easily be modified language sweeps the free models inside the band.
803
00:28:28.340 --> 00:28:29.720
And the new agency
804
00:28:29.860 --> 00:28:32.360
can shut down anything that falls inside of it,
805
00:28:32.380 --> 00:28:33.560
and that includes
806
00:28:33.860 --> 00:28:35.360
the Chinese models.
807
00:28:35.490 --> 00:28:36.250
So the ban
808
00:28:36.460 --> 00:28:37.920
doesn't need to touch China.
809
00:28:38.060 --> 00:28:39.470
It only needs to touch
810
00:28:39.770 --> 00:28:40.320
you.
811
00:28:40.670 --> 00:28:42.650
So as we've already illustrated,
812
00:28:42.980 --> 00:28:44.730
the only companies that are going to be
813
00:28:44.730 --> 00:28:47.700
able to survive under this new regulatory agency,
814
00:28:47.820 --> 00:28:49.450
under this new policy
815
00:28:49.700 --> 00:28:53.530
are the ones with billions in lawyers in compliance to prove they're safe.
816
00:28:53.860 --> 00:28:54.880
And in practice,
817
00:28:54.980 --> 00:28:56.000
that's going to be
818
00:28:56.530 --> 00:28:57.920
Anthropic,
819
00:28:58.290 --> 00:28:59.410
OpenAI
820
00:28:59.530 --> 00:29:00.640
and Google,
821
00:29:00.930 --> 00:29:01.530
maybe
822
00:29:01.690 --> 00:29:02.690
XAI
823
00:29:02.810 --> 00:29:04.550
and the well gets capped.
824
00:29:04.810 --> 00:29:05.910
Within a few years,
825
00:29:06.130 --> 00:29:10.110
the only advanced AI an American business can legally use
826
00:29:10.290 --> 00:29:12.060
is the kind that you have to rent
827
00:29:12.210 --> 00:29:12.920
from them.
828
00:29:13.090 --> 00:29:13.310
So,
829
00:29:13.330 --> 00:29:13.530
today,
830
00:29:13.630 --> 00:29:15.640
those companies have to fight for every
831
00:29:15.640 --> 00:29:18.200
customer and price their services accordingly,
832
00:29:18.290 --> 00:29:19.560
but after this bill,
833
00:29:19.890 --> 00:29:21.360
the customers can't leave.
834
00:29:21.700 --> 00:29:23.130
So they charge what they want.
835
00:29:23.220 --> 00:29:25.480
It's a toll booth on the only road,
836
00:29:25.660 --> 00:29:28.840
and that's what Claude's IPO needs.
837
00:29:29.340 --> 00:29:32.290
It needs the law first because you can't sell a toll booth
838
00:29:32.290 --> 00:29:35.420
to Wall Street until the government has closed the other roads.
839
00:29:35.740 --> 00:29:36.300
Tallinn
840
00:29:36.460 --> 00:29:40.380
and Moskovitz put $124 million into Anthropic.
841
00:29:40.580 --> 00:29:44.810
Their stake in a company with captive customers and no competition
842
00:29:45.380 --> 00:29:49.200
is worth more than the GDP of most countries,
843
00:29:49.620 --> 00:29:51.210
not because they built a better product.
844
00:29:51.670 --> 00:29:54.490
But because Congress banned the alternative.
845
00:29:54.910 --> 00:29:56.620
Same for Sam Altman at OpenAI,
846
00:29:56.750 --> 00:29:58.060
Elon Musk at XAI,
847
00:29:58.150 --> 00:30:00.290
and Dennis Hassabis at Google.
848
00:30:00.790 --> 00:30:03.540
The men who agreed to slow down within hours,
849
00:30:03.830 --> 00:30:06.530
Bernie asked them if they'd like to be one
850
00:30:06.550 --> 00:30:08.890
of the handful of companies allowed to exist.
851
00:30:09.070 --> 00:30:11.300
So of course they said yes,
852
00:30:11.710 --> 00:30:12.140
and yeah,
853
00:30:12.230 --> 00:30:13.900
they compete with each other just the way
854
00:30:13.900 --> 00:30:16.700
that Verizon and AT&T and T-Mobile compete.
855
00:30:16.790 --> 00:30:17.940
Three giants
856
00:30:18.230 --> 00:30:19.060
fighting over a share.
857
00:30:19.370 --> 00:30:21.920
Inside a market nobody else is allowed to enter,
858
00:30:22.090 --> 00:30:23.430
that's a cartel,
859
00:30:23.730 --> 00:30:24.600
and they know it.
860
00:30:24.820 --> 00:30:26.250
As routines start picking back up,
861
00:30:26.330 --> 00:30:29.280
the kitchen suddenly becomes one of the busiest places in the house.
862
00:30:29.590 --> 00:30:30.720
Between weeknight dinners,
863
00:30:30.810 --> 00:30:31.240
meal prep,
864
00:30:31.260 --> 00:30:32.520
and everything else on the schedule,
865
00:30:32.730 --> 00:30:35.450
having cookware that actually works makes a huge difference,
866
00:30:35.490 --> 00:30:37.680
and that's why hex clad has become such a favorite.
867
00:30:38.020 --> 00:30:40.010
It combines the performance of stainless steel with
868
00:30:40.010 --> 00:30:42.330
the convenience of non-stick so you get searing,
869
00:30:42.540 --> 00:30:43.130
even cooking,
870
00:30:43.220 --> 00:30:45.520
and incredibly easy cleanup every time.
871
00:30:45.860 --> 00:30:49.810
The hybrid surface is what really sets it apart because food releases easily,
872
00:30:49.900 --> 00:30:52.620
but you still get the browning and heat control that you expect
873
00:30:52.830 --> 00:30:53.650
from premium
874
00:30:53.830 --> 00:30:54.490
cookware.
875
00:30:54.660 --> 00:30:56.320
The pans are dishwasher safe,
876
00:30:56.540 --> 00:30:58.250
oven safe up to 900 degrees,
877
00:30:58.460 --> 00:30:59.560
metal utensil safe,
878
00:30:59.580 --> 00:31:01.300
and backed by a lifetime warranty.
879
00:31:01.460 --> 00:31:03.000
Getting back into the fall routine
880
00:31:03.140 --> 00:31:04.010
is already tough enough.
881
00:31:04.100 --> 00:31:04.370
Don't let.
882
00:31:04.750 --> 00:31:05.200
And clean up,
883
00:31:05.220 --> 00:31:06.460
add even more to your plate.
884
00:31:06.710 --> 00:31:07.680
So for a limited time,
885
00:31:07.700 --> 00:31:10.240
our listeners get 10% off with our exclusive link.
886
00:31:10.470 --> 00:31:12.870

890
00:31:20.910 --> 00:31:22.180
And like the Paris climate accords,
891
00:31:22.270 --> 00:31:22.740
maybe you're thinking,
892
00:31:22.830 --> 00:31:22.990
well,
893
00:31:23.010 --> 00:31:24.980
surely something good has got to come from this,
894
00:31:25.070 --> 00:31:25.190
right?
895
00:31:25.270 --> 00:31:29.620
Like what does this legislation do for your safety that the law can't already do?
896
00:31:29.910 --> 00:31:31.120
The answer is nothing.
897
00:31:31.880 --> 00:31:34.590
If an AI company ships a product that hurts people,
898
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:37.610
we can sue them for product liability today.
899
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:42.300
We can prosecute them under consumer protection and cybersecurity law today.
900
00:31:42.520 --> 00:31:45.700
We can break them up under antitrust today.
901
00:31:46.120 --> 00:31:46.870
Lena Khan,
902
00:31:47.080 --> 00:31:48.270
who ran the FTC,
903
00:31:48.360 --> 00:31:52.390
said it flat out there's no AI exemption from laws already on the books.
904
00:31:52.510 --> 00:31:53.870
Every tool you'd need.
905
00:31:54.260 --> 00:31:56.420
To punish a dangerous AI company
906
00:31:56.980 --> 00:31:58.260
already exists.
907
00:31:58.780 --> 00:32:01.850
Former FTC commissioner Alvaro Bedoya,
908
00:32:01.940 --> 00:32:02.010
well,
909
00:32:02.060 --> 00:32:05.170
he called the extinction talk a hyperbolic straw man
910
00:32:05.450 --> 00:32:08.880
being used to build a cartel of billionaire AI companies.
911
00:32:09.060 --> 00:32:10.210
He's not a podcaster.
912
00:32:10.340 --> 00:32:11.650
He's not a news anchor.
913
00:32:11.820 --> 00:32:14.090
He's the guy whose job was policing monopolies,
914
00:32:14.140 --> 00:32:16.540
and he's telling you this bill is building one.
915
00:32:17.950 --> 00:32:18.940
And here's the next step.
916
00:32:19.070 --> 00:32:22.120
Bernie's next move is going to be a treaty between
917
00:32:22.420 --> 00:32:23.120
us
918
00:32:23.390 --> 00:32:24.660
and Xi Jinping
919
00:32:24.830 --> 00:32:27.300
to pause AI across the planet.
920
00:32:27.990 --> 00:32:29.610
And here's where you're gonna see
921
00:32:29.950 --> 00:32:33.020
how much these guys learned from the last time.
922
00:32:33.360 --> 00:32:36.780
So the Paris climate accord went from the top down.
923
00:32:37.090 --> 00:32:38.980
Sign the treaty at the UN first,
924
00:32:39.230 --> 00:32:41.770
then push it into your life through the agencies.
925
00:32:41.950 --> 00:32:43.200
It never touched Congress,
926
00:32:43.270 --> 00:32:47.830
and that was its one weakness because one president's signature put us in.
927
00:32:48.220 --> 00:32:50.880
So one president's signature took us out.
928
00:32:51.140 --> 00:32:55.280
Trump pulled America out of the Paris climate accord agreement in a day.
929
00:32:55.580 --> 00:32:59.420
Everything these guys built came apart with the stroke of a pen,
930
00:32:59.660 --> 00:33:02.190
and they were never going to let this happen twice.
931
00:33:02.700 --> 00:33:04.650
So this time they reversed the model.
932
00:33:04.860 --> 00:33:05.630
Bottom up,
933
00:33:05.940 --> 00:33:07.570
get Congress to pass the bill,
934
00:33:07.620 --> 00:33:09.770
which builds the agency into federal law.
935
00:33:09.850 --> 00:33:10.530
A president
936
00:33:10.780 --> 00:33:11.810
can't sign that away.
937
00:33:11.940 --> 00:33:13.560
Only Congress can undo it.
938
00:33:14.120 --> 00:33:14.640
Then
939
00:33:14.840 --> 00:33:16.910
take the agency's rules to the Senate as
940
00:33:16.910 --> 00:33:19.800
a ratified treaty which unlike an executive agreement
941
00:33:20.110 --> 00:33:22.710
can't be walked out of on inauguration Day.
942
00:33:22.840 --> 00:33:25.670
Last time they went around your vote and Trump erased it.
943
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:28.660
This time they're using your vote to build something
944
00:33:28.840 --> 00:33:29.870
Trump proof
945
00:33:30.040 --> 00:33:31.550
or any other candidate in the future.
946
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:34.660
Who aligns with Trump and they're basically lifting this
947
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:36.590
out of your reach for good.
948
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:37.600
Now maybe you're going,
949
00:33:37.680 --> 00:33:37.820
well,
950
00:33:37.840 --> 00:33:40.310
why in the world would Xi Jinping sign a treaty like this?
951
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:40.470
Well,
952
00:33:40.560 --> 00:33:43.140
for the same reason he signed the Paris Climate Accord.
953
00:33:43.520 --> 00:33:44.350
There are no inspectors.
954
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:45.270
There's no penalties.
955
00:33:45.320 --> 00:33:46.670
There's no way to check what's
956
00:33:46.950 --> 00:33:49.300
running in a data center in Inner Mongolia.
957
00:33:50.460 --> 00:33:52.170
Americans obey their treaties.
958
00:33:52.510 --> 00:33:53.800
China just signs them.
959
00:33:54.340 --> 00:33:57.610
So when a Modi from Anthropic called for a slowdown,
960
00:33:57.860 --> 00:33:59.680
Beijing initially called it fear mongering,
961
00:33:59.700 --> 00:34:00.650
and they refused,
962
00:34:00.740 --> 00:34:01.600
but then.
963
00:34:02.350 --> 00:34:05.220
They ended up calling for an international AI governance,
964
00:34:05.350 --> 00:34:10.580
which means a seat at the table writing the rules but no obligation to follow them,
965
00:34:10.909 --> 00:34:13.409
and that's exactly what Paris gave them.
966
00:34:13.650 --> 00:34:16.420
It gave China praise as a partner but permission to
967
00:34:16.420 --> 00:34:19.310
do whatever they wanted while the West shut down.
968
00:34:19.710 --> 00:34:20.929
An AI treaty
969
00:34:21.110 --> 00:34:24.100
gives Xi Jinping a pause on his biggest rival,
970
00:34:24.429 --> 00:34:26.550
a veto over chip restrictions,
971
00:34:26.830 --> 00:34:28.929
and a handshake photo for the price
972
00:34:29.070 --> 00:34:30.260
of a signature.
973
00:34:30.590 --> 00:34:32.659
And the treaty isn't really for him,
974
00:34:33.030 --> 00:34:34.540
it's for us.
975
00:34:34.790 --> 00:34:37.810
It's to control the information we have access to,
976
00:34:37.989 --> 00:34:40.170
to control all of our data
977
00:34:40.350 --> 00:34:41.850
and the cost of us
978
00:34:42.030 --> 00:34:43.100
doing business.
979
00:34:43.550 --> 00:34:43.670
So,
980
00:34:43.690 --> 00:34:44.980
the bigger question right now is,
981
00:34:45.070 --> 00:34:46.739
is there a way out?
982
00:34:47.520 --> 00:34:47.630
Yeah,
983
00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:48.360
there's one,
984
00:34:48.639 --> 00:34:49.320
and they know it,
985
00:34:49.440 --> 00:34:51.350
which is why they're in a real big hurry.
986
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:53.630
None of this exists yet.
987
00:34:54.040 --> 00:34:56.230
The bill hasn't passed yet.
988
00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:59.070
The agency isn't built yet.
989
00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:01.310
The treaty is a proposal,
990
00:35:01.520 --> 00:35:06.710
so every single piece of this depends on Democrats taking the House in November
991
00:35:06.920 --> 00:35:08.700
and the Senate after that.
992
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:11.240
And that's why the super PAC
993
00:35:11.360 --> 00:35:13.070
from Anthropic has spent.
994
00:35:13.420 --> 00:35:15.840
Tens of millions in the primaries and that's
995
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:20.360
why Anthropic's employees are donating to the DCCC.
996
00:35:20.610 --> 00:35:23.360
That's why Obama's orders were about 2028.
997
00:35:23.650 --> 00:35:25.790
The machine is running on a clock
998
00:35:26.050 --> 00:35:28.370
and the clock is gonna run out in six weeks.
999
00:35:28.570 --> 00:35:30.910
The way out is the same way in
1000
00:35:31.160 --> 00:35:32.320
your vote.
1001
00:35:32.490 --> 00:35:33.190
Use it
1002
00:35:33.610 --> 00:35:34.720
before they do.
1003
00:35:35.070 --> 00:35:37.580
And I know how this sounds like I'm telling you a handful
1004
00:35:37.580 --> 00:35:40.780
of billionaires get together in a room and plan for world dominance,
1005
00:35:40.830 --> 00:35:40.940
right?
1006
00:35:40.990 --> 00:35:43.750
It's tin foil hot stuff except there is a room,
1007
00:35:44.270 --> 00:35:46.980
and it has a name and a website and a date on the calendar.
1008
00:35:47.030 --> 00:35:48.170
It's called the World
1009
00:35:48.370 --> 00:35:49.130
Economic
1010
00:35:49.310 --> 00:35:49.580
Forum,
1011
00:35:49.630 --> 00:35:51.070
and every January
1012
00:35:51.230 --> 00:35:54.110
it meets on a mountain in Switzerland called Davos.
1013
00:35:54.270 --> 00:35:55.930
Al Gore sits on its board,
1014
00:35:56.070 --> 00:35:59.240
and Bill Gates ran his entire COVID playbook through there.
1015
00:35:59.480 --> 00:36:00.020
SEPI,
1016
00:36:00.070 --> 00:36:02.540
which is the vaccine coalition that Gates co-founded,
1017
00:36:02.630 --> 00:36:03.570
was launched.
1018
00:36:04.120 --> 00:36:05.550
At the World Economic Forum
1019
00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:06.670
event 201,
1020
00:36:06.760 --> 00:36:09.320
the pandemic rehearsal was co-hosted by it.
1021
00:36:09.520 --> 00:36:12.640
The great reset was announced by the World Economic Forum,
1022
00:36:12.680 --> 00:36:13.820
and every year
1023
00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:18.000
the CEOs of the AI labs fly in to talk about governing
1024
00:36:18.180 --> 00:36:18.880
AI.
1025
00:36:19.120 --> 00:36:23.860
It all happens in the same room with the same guest list running the same
1026
00:36:24.040 --> 00:36:24.630
playbook.
1027
00:36:25.340 --> 00:36:25.570
Like I,
1028
00:36:25.700 --> 00:36:27.970
I don't know how dangerous AI is going to be.
1029
00:36:28.140 --> 00:36:29.120
Nobody does,
1030
00:36:29.420 --> 00:36:34.390
but this bill doesn't stop a single thing that the law can't already stop.
1031
00:36:34.780 --> 00:36:36.650
It's one new power
1032
00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:38.810
is the right to capture and control the
1033
00:36:38.810 --> 00:36:41.730
most valuable asset in the history of humanity,
1034
00:36:42.020 --> 00:36:44.160
the thing that's about to diagnose your cancer,
1035
00:36:44.540 --> 00:36:45.180
teach your kids,
1036
00:36:45.380 --> 00:36:46.210
run your business,
1037
00:36:46.460 --> 00:36:47.050
write the code,
1038
00:36:47.260 --> 00:36:47.850
design the drugs,
1039
00:36:47.980 --> 00:36:49.260
manage the power grid,
1040
00:36:49.460 --> 00:36:51.840
and do the work of a billion people at once.
1041
00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:52.530
Well,
1042
00:36:52.620 --> 00:36:54.080
whoever owns that
1043
00:36:54.420 --> 00:36:56.770
owns the history of humanity.
1044
00:36:57.670 --> 00:36:59.730
And about 3 to 4 companies,
1045
00:37:00.350 --> 00:37:01.970
a handful of billionaires,
1046
00:37:02.230 --> 00:37:03.710
and the politicians
1047
00:37:04.050 --> 00:37:06.170
just asked you to hand it to them
1048
00:37:06.310 --> 00:37:08.220
in the name of your own safety.
1049
00:37:08.470 --> 00:37:10.460
So here's what you do and do it quick.
1050
00:37:11.500 --> 00:37:12.920
Go to congress.gov,
1051
00:37:13.340 --> 00:37:17.490
search the Ban Artificial Super Intelligence Act and see if your congressman
1052
00:37:17.740 --> 00:37:20.170
or either your two senators signed on,
1053
00:37:20.350 --> 00:37:24.870
and then call 202-224-3121.
1054
00:37:24.940 --> 00:37:27.210
Ask for them by name and ask one question.
1055
00:37:27.790 --> 00:37:32.860
Will you vote to create a federal agency with the power to license and shut down AI?
1056
00:37:33.070 --> 00:37:34.180
Write down the answer.
1057
00:37:34.370 --> 00:37:37.200
Put every candidate on the record before November
1058
00:37:37.430 --> 00:37:40.010
and vote like that answer matters
1059
00:37:40.370 --> 00:37:42.500
because it's the last vote you're gonna get
1060
00:37:42.940 --> 00:37:46.060
before all of this happens to all of us.
1061
00:37:47.530 --> 00:37:48.320
All right guys
1062
00:37:49.090 --> 00:37:50.000
That's all for today.
1063
00:37:50.130 --> 00:37:51.000
